I'm scheduled for the November LSAT and I'm wondering if aiming for 3-5 PTs a week is too aggressive? or any recommendations for the week of the LSAT? I would love to hear any thoughts/experiences!

If someone can explain this question to me, please do because I just do not get why they answer is A.

Hi everyone,

I'm taking the Oct LSAT (ahh!!) and hoping to brush up on some LG games that focus on de Morgan's rules. Does anyone have a list of ones that I can practice? Don't believe there's a filter for it in the Drills. Thanks in advance for the help!

I've tried time and again, but I'm just not grasping this weakening concept. Especially if the stem is asking me to find the correct answer, "if true". I don't know why, but everything I've learned in MSS has me wired to not believe these.

In addition, trying to find the support between the Premise and Conclusion is leaving me blank and lost.

Any tips?

Hey 7Sagers,

Here's the official June 2022 LSAT Discussion Thread.

REMINDER: Under your Candidate Agreement, you may not discuss the details of any specific LSAT questions at any time. For the June LSAT, general discussion of what sections you had, or how difficult you found a given section, or speculation about which sections were scored or unscored, is prohibited until after 9pm ET tonight. So please be patient for just several hours.

Posts that violate these rules will be taken down and may result in disciplinary action from LSAC. Let’s work together to ensure the test is fair to everyone, and not share information before everyone has taken the test.

Good luck to everyone taking the June LSAT!

For those of you who have struggled with reading comp & improved greatly or even those of you who have always been great at reading comp, could you please give me advice on what you consider is the best way to study for reading comp? Is the CC's reading comp section good/ worth it? Or should I order a book from other test prep material? I have studied well for LG & LR, but I only have a month left to study for RC ( tragic, I know) Any advice would help. Thank you!

UPDATE: I'm taking the November LSAT as a trial run, so I can complete my study schedule (including at least 2 1/2 months of RC) to get the highest score possible in January. Thank you all for the suggestions.

Hey guys,

Thanks!

I was tripped by q7 and q12 of this passage, as I didn't equate "historical novel"in psg-A with "real life events", which it seems after looking at credited choice LSAC test makers expect you to. I read it more as a novel set during some historical period.

Due to this reason alone, I eliminated credited choice for central theme in both passages question (q7) that included "real events", and picked another choice that i didn't particularly like.

Isn't that a presumption from test makers about "historical novel"? Isn't "historical novel" a novel, so it's not necessarily "real"?

Why do lsat test makers presume that "historical novel" means real events only?

Hi, can any LR guru help take a look at the two following LR questions?

PT29 1-18 PT2 2-24

Details:

PT29 1-18: Most of artists are less insightfull than those educated.

Correct Must Be True answer E : Some of artists are no less insightgul than those educated

PT2 2-24: Many planning committee members work in suburbs

Wrong Must Be True answer D : Some planning committee members do not work in the suburbs

Basically: PT29 1-18 is saying that "Most excludes All". However, PT2 2-24 is saying that "Some does not exclude All"

Which one shall I remember? I am just sooooooo confused!

Thank you guys!!!

Taking on Friday - may take one more PT on Tuesday.

What are y'all planning to do?

Are we supposed to spot a flaw/loophole when we encounter a parallel reasoning question? (Not flaw reasoning questions.)

I signed into ProctorU right on the dot at noon ET on Sept 29 to sign up (as soon as we got that email), but NONE of the slots were available.

I'm in the queue to chat with someone from ProctorU, but I was wondering if this is just a technical error on my side or if others were having the same problem...

I average anywhere between -10 to -15 on RC which is by far my worst section. But I feel as if I understand the passage fairly well, even confident when finishing a timed section. Is this a misunderstanding in the questions and what they are asking? It is puzzling.

I'm averaging around -5 to -7 on Logical Reasoning and I really feel like I'm stuck score wise. I notice that some people swear by Translations and CLIR drills, can anyone give their thoughts on these two drills?

Does anyone have helpful tips for Must be True questions?

I originally started out LR by just drilling here and there and not paying too much attention to it until recently. I have been reading books, watching the videos about logic, and drilling a lot but I seem to be getting nowhere. It almost feels as if I understood it more knowing less about it. All of the different question types and how to solve them are getting jumbled when I take timed sections now. It also seems as if I need an entirely different approach for every single different question type. I am in need of ANY help or pointers to guide me in the way of properly studying for LR. (For reference, my PT is usually -12 and BR is -8ish, but now that I am only doing LR, performance has dropped a bit). Thanks in advance

I noticed there isn't a tag for "phenomenon hypothesis" type questions. Can someone clarify, are PH q's a subcategory of strengthen/weakening q's? Seems like they should have their own tag?

is there any resource that is good for identifying premises and conclusions, Im new to my lsat journey and i keep getting tripped up with that

During drills I feel somewhat calm and collected but when im taking a PT and get to the games section, I start to panic and don't think as clearly and miss very obvious inferences and even setups that I know I can do. I believe its the nervousness making this happen and wondering anyone has tips or any help for this

Hello everyone. Basically, I’m looking to see how to approach short RC passages as in passages that have around 5 or maybe 6 questions at most. In my experience, these passages are usually the first to come up in any given section, tend to be on the easier side, and seem like they can be completed in 6-7 minutes maybe 8 at most. However, as someone who struggles reading all 4 passages and often can’t finish the 4th, I need help with how to approach these passages with fewer questions.

Should I focus on completing these types of passages with less questions first in hopes of getting a likely 5-6 extra correct answers given the easier nature of these passages? Or should I skip it and move on to the passages that have more questions but are likely harder which can lead to more incorrect answers?

I hope this makes sense! My October LSAT is quickly approaching and I’m just looking for some last minute refinements to maybe score better on RC given that timing is my #1 enemy in RC. Thanks!

I'm working through some LR drills and going over my wrong answers, but can't seem to find video explanations for PT 3 Section 4, PT 15 Section 2, and PT A Section 4. Any ideas on where I can find them? I looked under the explanation videos tab and was able to find PT 3, but couldn't get videos for section 4 specifically. Same goes for the other PT videos I'm looking for :\

Hi, does anyone have any tips that really helped them improve logic games. I have been working on improving on it for it while and I can't seem to get majority of them right in a section. I am taking the LSAT in November and really want to improve since I have less than 5 weeks.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to work on Necessary Assumption questions. I have tried to use the Must Be True method but it is not working for me or I am not understanding the stimulus. I have tried Negation s test but I am very bad at them and do not know how to improve on how to use them. Does anyone know if there is another method that has worked for them or if there is a drill I missed that can help me hone in on these skills.

Hey guys,

What are your thoughts on score preview? Can law schools see if you cancel your score? I don't know if I want to spend even more money on LSAC stuff! But if it really is beneficial, I think I'll look into it for my October test.
