There should be an explanation video for this question. Makes no sense to me.

So I answered D, and it was incorrect. Correct answer is C, can anyone please provide help as to why this answer was incorrect and why C was correct?

Could anyone explain how does one reach answer C in regards to the final sentence, "none except the most virtuous deserves praise" ? Would really appreciate if one had the answers to this.

PrepTest 7 - Section 1 - Question 19

All the answers seem could be true IDK HOW THE ANSWER IS THE ANSWER??????

Admin Note: Edited title. For LR questions, please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."

I have no clue how C is correct. Can anyone chime in?

As the title says - for self-studiers, how do you go about finding a correct answer to a challenging question if you do not have a tutor?

For me, I try to use 7Sage’s explanation videos, but those can still leave me with questions or without clarity, or explanation videos are lacking.

Can someone explain to me why the right answer is the right answer and wher eyou found it in the passage?

Hello,

I have studying for couple months now but I'm not seeing any improvement with LR. The most I can answer in that section is until question 17th. My score have been constantly 8/17 and 11/17 after BR based on just what I answered. I believe my review hasn't been effective. I do have a wrong answer journal and redo questions sometimes. Sometimes I get them right and sometime I get them wrong again. How can I review LR effectively and improve? Any advice pleasseeeeeeeeeee

Can someone let me if I did this question correctly? don't even know how to think normal anymore

This is a nasty question and I would appreciate it if anyone could let me know if my approach was correct.

For a set of 50 sterilization equipment made of nylon, it requires 3.4x the energy it takes to manufacture.

For stainless steel it requires 2.1 the energy it takes to manufacture

If it requires 100 watts to manufacture nylon, it takes 340 to sterilize the 50 set

If it requires 100 watts manufacture SS, it takes 210 to sterilize a set of 50

A is wrong because it makes a mistake of trying to compare the two. If it takes 200 watts to manufacture SS, the it would require 410 for the set of 50.

B is deadly confusing. I took a nap and came back to it. If it takes 340 to sterilize a set of 50, the it takes 6.8 watts for each complete sterilization (340/50 = 6.8). If I'm still sticking with 100 watts as a requisite to manufacture my nylon instruments, with an s, there it no way it requires more energy for each complete sterilization that it requires to manufacture the nylon instruments, with an s.

C. I don't even know why this is wrong. I was thinking this has to be false because the stimulus tells us it's 50.

D. This could be true because either one could require more energy.

E. Nobody mentioned cost. It felt good to call an answer "out of scope." Felt like I'm finally speaking LSAT language.

Can someone help me if my think on B is on track. Also, how do I eliminate C

How have you guys improved your logical reasoning sections what has worked I can't seem to get above a 150 but I want to get a 165 in the august lsat

Here it is:

Is there a way to get 5 random problems from test 59 and below? I don't want to select the type, I just need to know they are from tests 59 and below to keep my other tests clean.

Hi!

So I had just finished my Nov test and luckily I am signed up for January, but I definitely felt that nasty feeling after finishing it. Now I’m super motivated to do way better for January! I’m looking for some buddies or accountability groups in DFW area (texas) who want to come together and help each other out for the next 2 months!!

let me know!!

"INCREASED SUBSTANTIALLY" in AC B is such a strong claim, I picked AC A bc the stimulus states that in previous decades the estimates are close to each other??

I take my test on 11/8 & I find my anxiety consuming. I commented on a fellow 7sager trying to encourage them to not focus on the number. But oof... it's hard. I'm not going to even lie I envy the people who perform relatively well in the 160s range & think their score isn't good enough. I genuinely envy you guys. I also hate saying that. It sucks when you get back into the admissions cycle of anything because comparing yourself to others is detrimental, but that's also the entire point of admissions. I know those who are aiming for higher and also aiming for different schools and their goals may be different than mine, but it still just sucks to think about.

I'm not sure if anyone can relate. I'm really embarrassed about my score, but like I'm also not aiming for an Ivy either lol. Idk I'm sort of venting, but I feel like I don't see many of my middle of the pack people on here. So if you relate please join the discussion.

I'm trying to tell myself it'll be okay, but I put in so much damn work and to some I know they would think my # is terrible. LIKE I LITERALLY HAD A FRIEND CANCEL A SCORE I WISH I COULD GET! Good for them tho, they raised it on their next test, but still.

It's difficult for me to keep my insecurities & doubts in check, especially as someone who struggles to feel confident in my academic abilities. Even though I finished undergrad w Summa, I still sit here wondering and questioning if I schools will want me. It's so nerve-wracking. I just don't want to feel like I'm alone in this.

Hello!

I'm wondering, for those of you who have taken the latest PrepTest released by LSAC, #94, how you went about answering Question 8? I don't understand how the student can't take Geology and History in Semester 2? I'm probably messing up my Conditional Translations, and DeMorgan's Law somehow... Can someone help?

So I have a pretty nasty sinus infection/cold. I'm kind of freaking out about how this is going to affect me on test day on Friday since I can't really focus through fatigue and my symptoms. I took the LSAT in September and REALLY didn't get the target score I wanted. I'm planning on submitting my applications in December but if I do as bad on this one too then my plans are kind of messy because I would consider taking the January one but applying in January seems like a bad idea from all that I've seen, so November kind of feels like my last shot. Any thoughts? Please?

LSAC sucks.

I submitted my request for accommodations almost a month ago. LSAC's website says they'll get back to you within 8-10 business days but it may take longer... aka they can take however long they want. We all know best practice is to study and prep as close to how test day will be. But if I don't know if my request will be honored I can't prep. LSAC sucks. They don't gaf about accommodated students. They don't even respond to my emails.

I began my LSAT journey last year and ended up deciding on a gap year after a few months of studying because I wasn't hitting close to my goal. Took a break till around May 2023 and enrolled back in 7sage with the goal of getting a 171+ by November! Thankful for this program as it was the majority of what I used over my time studying. I am enrolled in November (did it as a backup) so I will probably be retaking again just to see what happens now that the pressure is off.

Huge thanks to @RaphaelP for the help cleaning up my RC... his methodology brought me down to -3 on test day which was fortunately enough for my score. Highly recommend him as a tutor!

For those of you that have questions about the LSAT feel free to PM me or leave them here... I am a pretty active member of this discussion board and would love to answer any questions.

There was a magical time a few weeks ago when I FINALLY got a 176 BR score and I thought I was finally starting to understand the test. My previous BR scores were capped at 165-168, timed 157-163 ish. I thought I would never break 170 and was so relieved when I finally cracked it with BR.

I'm taking the November test next weekend and I feel like I've been bombing each PT lately and running out of time of my best section (LG). I typically get 1-2 wrong on LG, and occasionally get 100% when I'm just doing a section drill. I'm definitely struggling with timing and panic-guessing when I feel as though I'm burning too much time on any one question.

Has anyone experienced wild fluctuations and have any tips on how to start getting stable scores?

I work full-time in BigLaw so there are days when I work OT (I literally just submitted my timesheet for 97 hours the the last 2 weeks), and so can only squeeze a section and some drills during the week. I would choose a PT for the week, take the sections individually each evening after work, BR/review the whole test on Friday, and then take a timed PT on Sat, review Sun.

I finally have time off this week leading up to the test -- what is the most high-impact thing I can do to improve and stop fluctuating so much?

Hello! I am debating if I should do the CCv1 or CCv2 and was wondering if anyone had any experiences switching. Apparently, the Core Curriculum v2 (beta) contains 84 hours of lessons, whereas the Core Curriculum v1 has over 217 hours of lessons. So I didn't know if I would be missing out on a lot of content by doing the CCv2. For references, I just started studying and made it through the Foundations of the CCv1and just started the LR. LSAT in November.

Okay, so I eliminated D right away and was stuck between answer choice B and E. Is D correct because Mayor Tyler said "in 1982 when I first showed how the building would relieve the overcrowding we were experiencing" and Councillor Simon said "Roseville has saved by not having to maintain an underutilized courthouse for 10 years"?

I'm taking the lsat in-person next week and was wondering if anyone has any advice on what I should take aside from an ID?

Do i need to bring my own scrap paper and pencils or do they provide it?

Hi. I have been doing weakening questions on and off about a month and I just cannot seem to get the hang of it. I usually get like 50-60% right on any set I do. Sometimes I make the wrong jump in the answer choices and I would really appreciate some tips and tricks you guys use that have helped you.
