I was wondering if anyone has encountered a similar LG to PT34.S4.G2? It's the game that talks about different lectures/ speakers/ philosophers... The wording of that game really threw me off the first time. I wanted to get practice with other confusingly worded questions like that one.

Would appreciate any help team!

Just did an RC drill of PT 53.

Actually not bad considering RC is my most least practiced section. 20/27.

Stats were:

-5 Infer questions

-2 Application questions

Majority were in the final section. I wouldn't attribute it to rushing because I had a good 12.30ish minutes to complete the final reading section alone, so I felt decent on time. The questions themselves were quite difficult. I also feel like application questions have a dimension similar to inference questions in that you aren't directly finding concrete reference to the passage, and if you are, then it's not as explicit as you wish it to be.

How do you generally approach inference questions? Some tips would be lovely.

Thx

Could it be true that C and E are not the correct answers due to the following reasons?

.

C ) The stimulus doesn't discuss about architect in general, but specific architect (modern architect)

E ) Instead of work (object), the stimulus suggests that people (modern architect) have strong personalities that take over their work, which in turn leads to producing buildings that are not function for public use. This could mean that modern architects are impossible to simultaneously express his or her personality and be function for public use

.

.

My diagram:

Inviting + Functional --> Unobstructive (taking 2nd place to total environment)

.

Modern architects (=MA)

MA --> /Unobstructive (taking 2nd place to total environment) --> /Inviting or /Functional

MA --> Strong personalities take over work --> /Functional

Thank you in advance!

Hello sagers,

I want to make sure my application is perfect and idk if it would be a good idea to , I guess, pay someone to help me make sure it's solid, that I'm applying at the correct time and all, or if I need to retake, etc. Does 7sage offer these services? If not, is it against the rules here to offer to pay someone who is experienced to help?

My GPA is a 3.25, LSAT is a 169 (third take). I want a shot at USC UCLA and UCI (last choice). I was thinking I either apply now to all, or apply to UCI and retake for the others.

Thanks

Got this question right because of process of elimination, but I don't quite understand why A is the right answer?

https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-21-section-2-question-15/

Can anyone clarify why E is correct?

I chose E indirectly after eliminating other four answer choices.

.

Explanation for other answers:

[DIAGRAM]

Artist --most-> Hold less insightful political views than well educated non-artist

Artist statement --few-> Artistic talent =/= Political insight

.

[ANSWER CHOICES]

A ) Non-artist?

B ) Thorough education?

C ) Again, non-artist?

D ) Politicians?

Thank you in advance!

Hey, guys! I'm having trouble understanding why B is incorrect. My reasoning for selecting B was that if the diseased male grouse were treated with antibiotics their sacs would show that they were infected and this strengthened the hypothesis because the females would see this on their sacs and would not select them because they were unhealthy. It looks like I've made some assumptions somewhere or am I even on the right path with my logic? I read two explanations that aren't close to mine.

I would love to do a joint degree program. Specifically I'd like to either obtain a J.D. M.P.P or J.D. PhD in government. What sucks is that I'll have to study for my GRE right after I take my LSAT (crap :() But anyway I wanted to see if anyone is thinking on a similar line? Is anyone else interested in joint degree programs? If so where? Also do you think it would aid in my wanting to delve into either International Relations or NGO or Immigration work (I wish there was a job that encompassed all three haha. I'm indecisive)? Are these joint degree programs a waste of time/money? Any and all thoughts welcome.

I prepared for the September test for 6 months and averaged about a 157 on the prep tests I took. I want a 160 at least, but I fell short of that even though I felt better about the actual test than any other prep test. I ended up with a 151, and I’ve already signed up for December. I missed 11 in both LRs and RCand I missed 7 on LG (which is good for me). I honestly don’t know where to start now because I thought I had a decent grasp on the material. I have plenty of PTs left to practice with, but does anyone have any advice on honing these skills?

Hey everyone,

I underperformed so much on the September LSAT. I don't know what happened but I know my PT were way higher. Im going to retake in December. I studied with Kaplan and it was absolute garbage. Which 7sage package does everyone recommend for the next month and a half?

Like many (hopefully not too many!) others on here, I am disappointed with my September score and am retaking. A really rough reading comp section was the only thing keeping me from my target score, so I'm planning on drilling this shit into the ground. Any and all suggestions are appreciated.

I took the September 2017 LSAT and unfortunately didn't perform up to my potential. For various reasons, my undergraduate career thus far has been hectic and extremely time consuming. To be on the path of graduating in the normal time-slot of four years, I took five classes in a seven week summer semester and tried studying for the LSAT at the same time. Realizing my enormous mistake, I decided not to take the June LSAT, took the September LSAT, and didn't do as well as I should have. Given my extenuating circumstances and how I want to graduate undergrad this April, I am in a full course load right now and will be in the winter as well. My desire to go to a top law school is strong and I will study as efficiently as possible for an exemplary test score. That being said, I would love some feedback on how efficient the LSAT premium 7sage course is and if it will more than likely help me in achieving a higher score. A 20 point increase on the February 2017 LSAT would be great in my case, as I plan to be in an entering law school class of 2018. Any thoughts, experiences, and opinions would be awesome.

any advice?

Hi everybody,

Now that I am finished with the CC, I was wondering how people with only the starter pack went about their LR drilling, since they don't have the LR bundle. Should I just mute the CC videos and try to quickly figure out the answers on my own? Should I type them up and save them (like I did with LG that weren't apart of a problem set?) I know some people just use the starter pack and succeed, so basically my question is how? I may upgrade to Premium in the next week but even so, I thought I should seek advice from more experienced 7sagers.

Grey alert!!!!!!

Why are most of the passages in RC science based?

Hi everyone,

I'm about to go through the LR Drill packs, but before I do, I have a question about how to use them most effectively.

If I'm drilling only Flaw questions, for instance, should I drill them under timed conditions? In other words, should I pick out 25 and try to do those in 35 minutes? Or should I just not worry about time at all.

I'm at the stage where I have difficulty with certain question types, but I'm definitely beyond that "initial learning" stage.

Thanks so much for you help :)

Hey everyone. So I graduated college in May. I started out with a 144 for my diagnostic. Since then my highest PT has been a 162 and I've been studying full-time. I am very proud of my progress thus far. My goal is to get accepted to USC, UCLA, Georgetown, or Berkeley. My GPA is a 3.57. In order to do this I will have to get at least a 166 to even be considered. I feel like I will not be ready by December despite the fact that I am studying full-time. A moment of vulnerability here; I feel like crap being where I am. I am studying full-time in my parents house trying to stick to an 7 hour daily study schedule while I watch all my friends go off to medical school or law school or get great jobs. My girlfriend of 3 years just got into Stanford and I'm not even sure if I will be able to take a test by the deadline I set for myself, namely December. I feel like a disappointment to myself and it's so painful to feel so close to my goal and so far at the same time. I feel like I should take the test in June and get a full-time job or something in the meanwhile. I feel like the only people who might give me advice on this would give me bad advice, so I am asking the forum. The way I think about it is the following: I'd rather study longer and get a score that's good enough to get me into a good school possibly with money, than I getting into a worse school with no money. Where do you all stand on this? I feel like the 7sage mantra is take as much time as you need to get where you want to go, but I just don't know what to do. I want to thank everyone who took the time to read and respond to this in advance.

I keep getting a 162. And I’m worried because I am planning to take the test in December. Any advice?

I assume, we obviously do the memory method on the actual LSAT exam, correct? Or does it take too much time?

Anyone know if it's allowed to use a highlighter on the test?? I'm trying different strategies with RC and think highlighting will help. Any insight much appreciated. Thanks

Hey 7sagers!

Im wondering how I could balance the time spent on LG fool proofing and working on other sections. I seem to be unable to juggle all sections together so Im currently neglecting LR and RC while focusing on foolproofing LG. It takes so much of my brain energy to work on LG alone and now im concerned about LR and RC.

Im so amazed by all who have done and are currently foolproofing LG! It takes so much grit and endurance.

Could you offer me advice on balancing the sections? Thank you 7sage!!

Hey, guys. I have some conflicting notes on something and was hoping for some clarification.

/A --> B

and

A ---> /B

are different things, right?

I wrote down:

/A-->B

=Either or; one of A and B must be in, the other is free to float.

A-->/B

=Not both; only one of A and B can be in, the other must be out.

This is what I wrote down from the course but I thought I saw something different in one of the explanations.

Can someone explain to me the difference between AC D and B

https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-59-section-2-question-20/

https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/advanced-andor-in-necessary-conditions/

I'm having trouble understanding this lesson.

A--> B or C

Why can't "OR" in the necessary mean both? unless otherwise indicated as "not both"

Since its a necessary condition would it not mean that it is necessary for one of them to happen/be triggered but could it not also be the case that B and C happen?

A--> B and C

Similarly for "AND"

I don't understand why AND can split the arrow... if A --> B and C... doesn't this mean that it is necessary for both B AND C to be triggered? Because the contrapositive means if not B or not C then not A... If we say A --> B and A--> C are we saying that one of them could happen without the other and the statement will still be true.. but if this was the case why can't we say or?
