Hi, so I have a Wrong Answer Journal and I now have around 162 questions that I have jotted down for LR

I’m wondering how I can go about efficiently redoing these questions being that there is soo many other questions I have not done yet that I may even get wrong after a PT.

I'm just overwhelmed with trying to redo them and getting them right the next go around. And the more drills and PT I do the more I add creating a backlog. Any tips?

I still don't understand why D is wrong and E is the right answer.

I don't see why E is related to widespread use part. The reason why I chose D is "taking larger-than-prescribed doses" and "be fatal" part.

Can "taking larger-than-prescribed doses" be "widespread use" and "be fatal" be "could be dangerous" which the stimulus says?

Can anyone enlighten me why D is wrong and E is right?

Thanks!

Correct me if I am wrong in my explanation. I am not sure about my explanations for "B" and "D"

*The kind of question this is:* Weaken

*CTX:* Post office must be replaced with a larger one.

*Premise(s):*

• The present one cannot be replaced.

• Land near the present (center of town) location is more expensive.

• Cost of acquiring a site is a significant part of the total construction cost.

*Conclusion:* Post office can be built more cheaply on the outskirts of town.

*What I am looking for:* A reason, that outweighs the burden of cost, in favour of the office to being built near the present (center of town) location, rather than on the outskirts.

*Answer A:* No. That is just information. Irrelevant. The building code is not a stated obstacle.

*Answer B:* Yes. The office on the outskirts will need a parking lot that is more expensive than not having one.

*Answer C:* No. That’s an issue that the new post office would not need to worry about. It is not mentioned how this would be a problem.

*Answer D:* No. So what if they have to deliver mail to home. The mail will still arrive to the costumers. The post office on the outskirts will still be in business.

*Answer E:* No. That’s not a problem. That’s just the process that will be taken to build the office in the center of town.

I'm really confused between A and D too and can't still understand why A is wrong.

I chose A. The reason why I thought D was wrong is "widely accepted theory" part. The author said it has "gradually" won accepted (Line 20) rather than widely accepted. I think gradually accepted and widely accepted are totally different.

So how is it possible D is the right answer?

And why is A wrong?

Please someone enlighten me.

Thanks!

Hi all!

I am currently scoring in the high 150s - low 160s with a pretty solid understanding of the curriculum.

What I find really helpful in learning is by teaching others. This forces me to verbalize my thought process and consider questions that I may not have thought of. With that said, I would like to offer my explanations/insights to anyone that have specific questions or just want a new set of eyes in general.

If you are interested, please message me 1 or 2 specific questions you need help on. We can then try to arrange some time to jump on Discord where I will attempt to explain it to you and you are free to ask any questions.

Note - this is by no means any form of tutoring, but I think we can both benefit from it. If there's anything I can't answer, we can try to figure it out together.

Hi everyone,

I'm averaging around the 170 mark, and I'm looking for some ideas and variations for my drills. How many questions should I include in one drill? If I'm missing mostly the harder LR questions, should I do, say, repeated drills of 5 questions on "hard" mode (I personally found this to be kind of underwhelming, which is why I'm questioning if it's a good method.)?

I would also love to hear any drill-setups that others have found useful – things like the doing the first 15 questions of an LR section in 15 minutes, or targeting specific question-types. Any help would be really appreciated!

For those who have consistently achieved anything from -0 to -3 on RC, do you have any tips on approaching the most difficult questions of a section/passage under time constraints? On questions, I'll set a certain amount of time (e.g. 45 seconds) per question. On extremely tricky questions where I debate between 2 answers, I'll flag the question and move on if I run out of time. Typically, I'll be hyper attentive and look for a specific word that might help me eliminate an answer choice, but this doesn't always work (shoutout PT45 S2 P2 Q10 ugh). I'm currently averaging anything from -5 to -10 (a large range ik).

Is there anything specific you do while reading the passage that helps with the most difficult questions? Do you look back at the passage? Purely rely on memory and low-res? Does anything change in your approach when you're answering the last passage of a section, knowing that the questions will likely be more difficult?

Advice appreciated! Thanks!

Hello, 7Sage team & fellow 7Sagers.

I have been utilizing the RC passage explanations and have been wondering what I am supposed to get out of them. It seems the level of detail you all go into is well beyond the level of detail we should be absorbing during our read through under time pressure.

In the lessons, we were given a somewhat different sort of break down where low res. summaries and predictions of the following paragraph content were discussed. I found this very helpful as a check on how I broke down the passage and utilized this analysis to answer the questions.

I realize that there is a passage summary underneath the video explanation, but again I am just confused on how these video explanations aid in our RC abilities.

I apologize if their usefulness is obvious to everyone else. I just felt the need to express my thoughts in a manner in which I could receive some feedback.

Thank you.

I am struggling to figure out what Link Assumption means! It is my top priority for improvement on my analytics page and I can not find any information on what this means #help!

For the last sentence of the stimulus, since we use the contrapositive, wouldn't it be "requests cancellation beforehand OR in writing"?

Hi everyone,

While I've seen some people state their frustrations with scoring in the 165+ range because they wanted higher scores, I wanted to make a post for those who are proud of their accomplishments to date and getting scores that are reflective of where they want to be. No shame or disrespect to those wanting to achieve whatever perfection they are aiming for, but proud to support others who are doing their best all the same. Especially for those older in the group (30-year-old here!), the single parents or single-income households navigating full or part-time work.

This isn't the end of my LSAT journey (one more attempt will be made in October) but I wanted to give a huge shout out to those who consistently support and provide feedback in the lessons and discussion forums. Keep working hard, be proud of your accomplishments (because no one knows what this test is like unless they've sat through this process), and trust the process!

This took me probably 10 minutes to eke out the right answer. I kept thinking that the assumption was that all poets were writers because it clearly does not state that but that wasn't the answer choice. I'm still confused as how to get to work this conditional out. Please halllppppp!

Hello,

I really like the platform overall, but wish I could save answer choices in folders. There's some questions I wish to come back to or want to save for specific reasons, but I only have the option of pinning them.

I would really like a way to save questions in a more specific way so I could have a folder for myself with titles like "need to re-review" or "hardest conditional reasoning."

I mark questions in a book by hand that I would like to revisit but its really annoying to keep track of it this way, and once I do return to them its annoying to find them in the system using the drilling platform.

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a study partner that is doing well on LR (-0-2) and wants to help someone that isn't! Message me if you are interested!

If there's a 5/5 difficulty question that I get correct on my first try, should I make an effort to go over and identify/rule out the trap answers? I guess in a way I must have done that in my original answering. I worry that going over them more might make me more confused when my intuition/reasoning was right the first time. Thoughts? Is it worth doing to carry over?

Hi! I am taking the LSAT in November and want to find someone to hop on a call of some sort to run through some of the more difficult LR questions because that is where I need the most improvement. I also want to find someone who is still in the process of applying to law school who can help make me be less stressed about getting everything right lol. I am in the eastern time zone and live in Lexington, KY. My availability is PM and Saturdays since I work full time currently. DM me if you're interested!

This is my first time of taking LSAT. I chose to take the test at a test centre, but right now I can't find a test location in Canada on the Prometric website. Could anyone explain the reason?

How predictive is a practice score on an older LSAT (i.e. 127) vs a newer one (i.e. 158)? Is the correlation generally weaker the older the test is?

I've read that older practice exams tend to have easier RC sections, but if you do really well on 127, is there reason to think that will translate to test day? Or should you focus on recent exams to diagnose your likely score?

I’ve been having issues with RC. When I review questions or watch videos, all it gives me is the breakdown of the passage and doesn’t help with real-time issues regarding how I should map out the passage under time constraints. I either write too little or I write too much; I either eat up time going back to the passage or I spend too much on the diagram and run out of time for the Qs, respectively. Does anyone have a better system, preferably one that references the structure and a low resolution summary?

Hi there,

I completed PTA RC, which doesn't have video or written explanations for the answers. Despite getting the answer correct, there was a major time sink on my end for the first question of the first passage. I want to reaffirm my thinking for the right / wrong ACs. Could anyone who has taken this PT confirm or revise my understanding?

Q1

AC A: Clandestine marriages is not at all supported by Donahue's position, lines 46-48 state that "so long as they acted in accordance with established bann procedures, a couple could marry without parental consent and still enjoy the blessing of the Church." Bann compliance is not considered clandestine. I had no trouble finding support against this.

HOWEVER, I struggled with whether the first part of this AC (concerning synthesis) is descriptively accurate and broad enough to be the MP. Is it accurate to say that "the doctrine of marriage by Pope Alexander III represented a synthesis of traditional ecclesiastical dnd legal opinion"? Would this sentence be accurate and potentially good enough for a revised MP or am I misunderstanding the passage?

AC B: More support for this is provided by the passage; no issues. (Based on mutual consent is supported by paragraph 1. Encouraged marriages based on love is supported in paragraph 2.)

Any help understanding this passage and question is appreciated! Happy studying!

I'm trying to figure out if my reasoning for eliminating all of the incorrect answer choices is sound. If you have time, or have done the question already, it'd be great to hear how you chose between choices B and E.

Hi! I am struggling to fully grasp how to do the assumption questions. Any tips or tricks to understand these? Thank you!
