Help!

Question, I received a 143 on my lsat and the school I'm looking at 25th percentile is a 145. However, my gpa is well over their 75th percentile. I have already submitted my applications, do I ask the school to hold the application until I take February's test? Also if i retake the February test and get a higher score, do they consider that for scholarships?

I scored 163, a few points below my PT average. I’m not devastated but definitely not thrilled either. I’m wanting to apply for schools like university of Minnesota and Boston college, maybe University of Washington in Seattle. Do I have a good shot? Should I lower my expectations ?

Take a fifth time?

I have taken the LSAT 4 times so far (168,165,169 and Cancellation). I know that these are not bad scores, but as an international student with no reportable GPA, I might need a better score to get into T14. I have alreay submitted almost all applications and I wonder how badly law schools will look at fifth take?

Before the December LSAT(which I cancelled), I normally score low-170 and RC is my weakest section.

If I take the Feb LSAT, would law schools hold my application automatically?

I know that taking the LSAT five times is so unconventional, so I ask for the advice from 7 sagers.

Hey if you record yourself doing an RC section how do you go about reviewing it afterwards? What’s your purpose and what are you specifically looking for. Thanks!

There is a rule I am not able to understand and how I would write it out as a rule during my sketch. I believe it is a hybrid game...sequencing and not sure what else.

In a game disallowing ties: B appears before C, or B appears before D, but not both.

I wrote out the rule as B...C OR D...B but this doesn't clearly explain the rule and I will most likely continue to be confused. How can I better understand rules in this nature and what would be a better way to sketch it.

Hello!

I've been studying on and off the last few years for the LSAT, and I am seriously committing the last few weeks before the February LSAT to study (yes, I know it is not recommended). Is there anyone else in the same or similar situation as I am?

Hi everyone!

Can someone please help me with this question. I can't understand why C is wrong at all. I got it down to A and C and ended up picking C.

cant C be correct because if drinking one glass doesn't cause deficiency in vitamin D, that means there would be enough calcium absorbed by an aging persons body for them to lower their blood pressure.

thoughts?

if we are to solve a strengthen, or Sa or PSA type of a question, if we see the word Principle in the Question stem. Are we to assume that that question makes use of conditional Logic necessarily? Also does the SA question always make use of conditional Logic?

Hello,

I have a general question about negating statements that is bothering me as I'm working through necessary assumption questions! My question is, do we negate BOTH "not" elements in a statement in order to properly negate it, or just one? For example:

"Lawrence did not get the idea in the passages in questions or did not get their formulations originally from Hartley"

To negate, do we take away both of the "nots" or just one?

Another example:

"Those who do not know a language cannot hear the way speech in that language actually sounds"

To negate, do we say "Those who do know a language cannot hear the way speech in that language actually sounds" or do we say "Those who do know a language can hear the way speech in that language actually sounds"?

Thanks and I hope this makes sense!

I started to enjoy the RC section when I started to enjoy learning from it. And outside knowledge definitely helps when it comes to RC.

I used to think I know about art, but by reading the art LSAT passages, I learned that I have absolutely no idea about art history! My go-to YouTube channel for science is CrashCourse, but I haven't been able to find a good channel for art history (Khan Academy's lessons seemed too detailed....)

Recently I found Art History - Overview Videos from Phil Hansen (21 videos).

I've been watching these videos whenever I get bored with studying in the order of Art History Timeline (yes, it's Art History For Dummies website. lol), so I thought I'd share these with you!

Let me know if there are any YouTube videos or websites that help us with art history! :)

..."but not both" sequencing games. I've been practicing these after the Dec LSAT. I thought I had a good handle on them but I took way too long to diagram my possible worlds game 2 (I realized I made a mistake halfway through the question set and had to redo them).

I'm currently doing drills in Powescore's LG workbook.
