Hi All,

I am having a hard time understanding how to distinguish between the Sufficient and Necessary parts of a premise when there are no indicators.

Any thoughts on how to simplify defining these concepts to create a sure way of ID-ing each part correctly?

I have noticed that I struggle the most with Link Assumption questions, despite scoring strong on Sufficient and Necessary Assumption questions. Any advice on what to study to help curb this?

Hello there,

Is there any way to remove the experimental section when I take a PT?

Thank you kindly:)

I am going through what I thought was a J curve except I haven’t recovered yet. I am scoring lower than I was when I started taking regular PTs about 2 months ago. My past few PTs have been in the highs 150s, but my Blind Review are between 168-176. Does anyone have any tips for how to close this gap? 

I am focusing on the types of questions that I get wrong but wondering if there was anything specific I could do to try to get to my BR score during timed PTs as well. Thank you!

Analogy questions are the one type of questions I have routinely had no idea how to approach. Even when I read the explanation I often am still confused on how you're supposed to arrive at the answer or even how it's an apt analogy. What are people's strategies?

I'm new to drilling. I was wondering if anyone has any advice on how to drill? How many questions should I start with, time or untimed, etc. Any advice is appreciated!

Not sure if this matters, but I got a 151, 151, and 160 on PTs. I won't be taking more PTs until I start drilling. Thanks!

Edit: I am nearly done with 7Sage's cirriculum

Edit: So I just finished drilling 5 questions, and I got 3 correct, but I got all five correct during blind review. Would the next step be to analyze each question/just the questions I had trouble with and then do extensive reasoning on my thought process for each question? I know spending time is necessary, but I'm just not sure what the most time-efficient way of doing this would be. any advice is appreciated!

I’m really curious how a PrepTest with a score below 180 could be in the “100th percentile.” Does that mean no one on the actual exam scored a 180? Or are percentiles based on 7Sage users’ scores?

Any info on how the percentiles work in 7Sage would be much appreciated :)

I just took a PT and I am devastated. The experimental LR section was -3. Had it been swapped out, I would have scored a 163 rather than a 157. I know we can't choose on the real exam, but it is ARBITRARY here; these are not real experimental sections, and we are not given the option of a three section PT. From a mental perspective, seeing a range of possible scores would be really helpful. I know I have to go back and dig into all of the sections, which I will do. But I have to tell you that I feel like quitting right now. It sucks that my mood would be so much different if it had popped up as a 163, but that’s what’s up.

Also, what is going on with the typing field here? I had to write this in Word and paste it is. Every other keystroke is being erased, doubled, or backed up? Anyone else having this issue?

Is it possible to change the settings for when I take a practice test to get rid of the experimental section?

I have taken some full practice logic sections recently, and have noticed that a lot of the harder questions are near the end. Because of this, does anyone recommend starting at the end with questions and working your way to the beginning? Just curious if this is a good strategy :)

What does it mean when I get 100% (correct) on the actual question but then 0% (incorrect) on blind review? Or vise versa. Sometimes I get down to 2 answers and feel confident about an answer then redo the question in blind review and may end up selecting the other answer.

The Core Curriculum talks about benefits of BR on PTests. I've been doing it on my drills too, is that also recommended?

Does anyone have any recommendations for diagnostic tests?

Is there any benefit in turning this setting off? Or should I just leave it on? I just started studying btw.

hi everyone! During a study plan workshop, ZeSean discussed pairing practice drills with the core cirriculum. Is there an existing guide to match my progress on the core cirriculum to the practice drills and/or the live classes, other than simply guaging by the titles and difficulty levels?

After three months of studying with the LSAT Trainer and other textbook-based resources, I moved on to 7sage because I heard good thing about it, but I've found myself scoring lower and being more confused on questions.

Did all of my knowledge suddenly disappear, or is the LSAT Trainer irrelevant to studying with 7sage, or am I just adjusting differently to studying on the screen?

“All that is needed to save the koala is to stop deforestation”

how do I map this, isint it saying stopping deforestation is neccecary??

hi, I am in the middle of a practice test but need to stop it and resume the next day. Will the system hold my spot for that long? like 17-18 hours?

Hi,

due to some unfortunate circumstances, I havent been able to study for the August LSAT as efficiently as I should have and I'm starting to panic, are there any tips on what I should be prioritizing? (parts of the cc that are most important or just drills and pt's at this point).

Thanks!

I find myself getting stuck on a lot of weaken/strengthen questions in RC because I just don't know how to approach it. In LR I always tell myself to look for assumptions and overlooked possibilities, and in general think of making the premises less supportive or stronger support for the conclusion, and also staying away from trap answers that independently attack the conclusion or deny premises. However, in RC there's not really clear premises or reasoning so I find it hard to wrap my head around how we're supposed to then strengthen or weaken an author's argument, and whether we should consider ACs that seem to independently go against their position or give an independent reason to strengthen it.

Any suggestions on how to think about these questions?

I'm trying to figure out the best way to drill RC. Do I do a bunch of hard passages at this point? Timed? Untimed?

Which live classes are best to attend? Just beginner ones? Do I drill? I've read others say to hold off on significant drilling until you finish CC.

I first attempted this behemoth in 2017 right after undergrad. In hindsight, I was not ready. I tried again in 2024 but mistakingly applied and got denied from one law school. For my third attempt, I am implementing new strategies such as 7Sage and will be applying to 7 law schools. Be Patient with yourself & always try again.
