Another user posted this and appears that I had exact same test (even with accommodations). Second LSAT - here are my feelings:

LG: :-D est 20/23 correct

LR1: :-( est 10/25 correct

LR2: :-D est 18-20/25 correct

RC: :-| est 20-24/27 correct

LR3: :-D est 18-20/25 correct

LG had shrines, oranges, melons, pears, tangerines; north store and south stores; lectures; Garcia & co.

Other user's notes:

I had LG-LR(25)-LR(26)-RC-LR(25).

LG had game on Quandryville and Pleasantville.

RC had Argentinian author, hominids, and comparative law on women's labor.

For LR:

First Q of my first LR (25) section was on restaurants long term versus new patrons and the menu.

For the 26 LR, first Q was on blood transfusions and hepatitis. There were also two sets of the one stimulus, two Q's.

For my last LR (25) the first Q was on the mayor's comment on wild, non domesticated animals and dogs. There was also a question about tutoring students and spelling ability for academic ability towards the end.

Hope for your goal score!

Just wanted to hear how the august re-testers feel about the test!

I had 2 LR and found the 1st was much easier so hopefully that one is the real one

I found RC to be very challenging and the last logic game was very confusing

Normally I only get around 1-2 LG wrong but that last question probably bumped that up to about 4-5

Any one else feel the same?

Hi,

I'm having a lot of trouble eliminating D on this question, and would love some help if possible! My reasoning:

D) Was the species to which the recently discovered [earlier] dinosaur [X] belonged related to T. rex?

If yes, and T. rex descended from X, this seems to strengthen the author's argument as it suggests that the T. rex features evolved in an earlier ancestor that evidently did not require them for its size. In this scenario the features would have just been passed down to the T. rex, offering an alternate explanation to the scientists' hypothesis and strengthening the author's argument.

If no, and the T. rex and X were unrelated, I feel like this would weaken the author's argument as it would make it difficult to compare the two dinosaurs. Even if X did not evolve these features to support its size, T. rex still may have and it's just a coincidence that they are similar. This would leave us back where we started as the author's evidence for calling the scientists' hypothesis into question is now irrelevant.

Any help clearing this up would be greatly appreciated, I've spent way too long on this question :P

Hello,

I am looking for notes/comprehensive summary of the logical reasoning section for each question category. I would really appreciate if you message me your notes on the course.

Thank you so much!!!

Just wanna share a little hack and see if anyone else is also doing this or maybe it's just me.

I've been super busy and don't have much time practicing lately, but I still want to desensitize my brain with LSAT, so I put on JY's RC passage explanations as podcasts/audiobook and just listen to it when i'm walking or driving lol. And sometimes I even get carried away and super invested in the stories. It's kinda fun actually! I listen to it before bed too, puts me to sleep super fast, melatonin substitution. And I just did a section today, strangely I did better than I thought given that I didn't do any PTs lately. Anyone else?

So I now have a binder several inches thick that holds all of my games. I try to do AT LEAST 5 games a day on top of the rest of my life and all those sheets have added up. But the real problem is that without me doing some really intense work, I have no way to quickly and easily look at my aggregate games data. I think it would be great if 7sage could add a feature where I could select a game (ex. PT 66, game 2) and then I would enter the time I took to finish the game and my answers. Then 7sage could show me all the stats about that game and all my other games too. I could see past scores/times for certain games. It could even keep track of different question types (new/substitute rule, MBT, MBF, could be true, etc.) so I could even tailor my prep down to the question. I think it wouldn't be too too difficult to implement because 7sage already has all the Q-types in their system. Anyways just a thought.

yep, as expected, LG3 f-Ed me over. But it's ok because I didn't suck at the other sections. I'm also well within the median for my goal school. But yeah, Game3, how cruel a fate.

I seem to have a good grasp on these, getting them down to the last 2 possible answers-85% of the time choosing the right answer. But, in my opinion, for more than 75% of the correct answers they never tend to be the comparative answers. Is it safe to say that majority of the time the answers are NOT comparative, unless the subject within the statement has a comparison?

Hi everyone, hope your studying is going well!

I just finished the Foundations section and the Main Conclusion section of 7sage. Is this a good time to start taking practice tests? Should I wait until I get further into the LR study section before beginning to take practice tests?

Would love to hear what you all think and what has worked for you!

Hello,

I took the June 2023 test following two months of extensive prep, and I will be taking the test a second time in October. My plan initially is to not do the core curriculum all over again and just focus on timed practice, full PT's, drilling and just going back to the core curriculum as needed for the topics I find myself struggling with the most.

I have a full time job and need to optimize my prep as much as possible.

For context, the last 8 PT's prior to the June test I consistently scored in the lower 160's, but I ended up scoring 158 on the actual test. I am targeting 165+ on the October test. Also, I am using 7Sage for the first time.

Any thoughts on this?

Extremely frustrated! The LSAT has been a relatively long and stressful journey for me. My first 2 attempts I saw little improvement and scored in the mid 150s. But leading up to November, I was feeling great. My prep test range was 167-172! On test day, I felt fine not great. Nothing went especially wrong and I left the test feeling unsure but not like I melted down.

Got my score back and it was 159, just 2 points more than my last take and 8-13 points below my range. I clearly underperformed.

I’m now looking ahead to hopefully my last retake in January. Any advice on how to perform to my potential on test day? The biggest factor I can identify is taking it in person vs. replicating my PT experience remotely.

Has anyone used Odyssey Logic Games Revolution for LG? Don't get me wrong, 7Sage is Golden for me!! I have ZERO complaints! I love the explanations here but from time to time I need to see things from a different point of view for better understanding. If anyone has used Odyssey is it totally different, or would I be able to merge the two methods when needed? I don't want a new method because that would be confusing. I'm just trying to see if they're comparable.

So as part of my penance for letting the games hurt me in September (PT 73), I'm forcing myself to be super formal in my review as preparation for my December retake. For no particularly good reason, I started with Game 3. I'm working on the others and might post them too. For those who can't wait for JY's far superior explanations and clever quips, here ya go:

I'm pretty sure this doesn't violate copyright since I'm not including the game stimulus or questions or answers. If I am, please delete. :)

Offering help to people struggling with Logical Reasoning. Reach out.

Could someone explain why the correct answer choice is E ? Also is there a way for me to look up an explanation for this specific question on 7sage? I just started the free trial so I am still getting used to the site?

In this episode, Bailey and Henry discuss how to regain focus after a difficult fall LSAT. They outline practical steps for resetting your approach, rebuilding confidence, and creating a clear plan for the weeks leading up to the January exam. Listen in for advice on how to move forward with intention and improve your performance.

I picked E for this one, when the correct choice was C.

I realize that C is the VERY opposite and E is just less relevant (though still logically opposite) to the theory. So for LEAST questions, should we be looking for the VERY opposite? Or the WEAKEST?

http://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-3-section-3-passage-1-questions/

I chose D, but the answer is C.

Doesn't the passage talk about theoretician's perspective about the satellites of asteroids?

I don't know why D is wrong.

Can anyone explain me why D is wrong and C is right?

Please help me.

Thanks!

I've been studying for this test properly for about a year now, meaning that I've been taking practice tests and blind reviewing them. I've been somewhat familiarizing myself with the LSAT material for about two years now but only last year did I start taking practice LSATs. I've taken 20-30 practice tests until now. I was feeling fairly confident until I took my last three LSATs, which are recent. I scored a 164 on two of them and a 163 on one of them. When I blind reviewed those exams my score went up anywhere from a 170 to a177. I'm aiming for one of the top 20 law schools and, therefore, my score of 164 won't cut it. What do you guys think I should do? and do you think that I could potentially achieve my BR score on a timed LSAT?

Thanks for your feedback.

I'm still confused as to how and why Jon's explanation in the video is used to express answer choice A is correct and answer choice C is wrong. I'm not following his logic in the video. Can somebody please explain this? Also there was a comment below the video that there are plenty of old LSAT questions with similar type of errors. I'm not sure, but can somebody point out those questions and the type of error? Thanks.

http://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-26-section-3-question-07/

I chose E which is a right answer because C didn't mention about drug which was a sentence right before the blank, so it makes more sense to me.

But I thought C could be an answer too at first.

Can anyone enlighten me why C can't be and E has to be an answer?

Thanks!
