Can someone help explain

booking test dates and times for the August LSAT opened on July 6th at 5pm (EST) and when it first went online there was a problem with booking online tests so I believe this made a lot of people book in person even if there preference was online. Due to this, since the beginning I was unable to book my test in person and it has said there are no test centers in all of Ontario Canada I called the help line but they have basically told me their unable to do anything about it. Should I wait and see if a spot opens up or just resign myself to doing it online? Im really worried about doing an online exam because I'm worried the proctoring system will flag me fo simply stretching my neck or looking away from my screen accidentally. Any advice would be helpful!

It really seems like the answer should be (D), can someone explain to me how (B) could possibly be read as consistent with the biologist's claim. It is the exact opposite of what they are claiming????

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?

Hello,

I had a question about conditional logic in the LR section. How often should I be translating into conditional logic? Is this something I’m supposed to hold in my head or should I actively translate the statements onto paper? Should I be doing this a lot early on in my studies and less over time! Please help!

Hello

I keep getting -7~ -9 in LSAT and when I go back for BR, I am able to get the right answer. What should I do to avoid this? Should I just keep drilling? I have been doing timed and untimed drills. I want to detect what the real issue is but I really don't get why

#help why is the question A and not B?

Why is the answer A? I can see why some of the other answers do not fit, I am just confused how you can infer A from the passage?

Why is the answer B?

Hi if am having an issue identifying the different question stem in logical reasoning. What do you recommend? #help

Hello all! Why is the game time tracking always stopping whenever Im moving onto another question? I have to manually click "continue game time tracking" Its not allowing me to see how long Im taking on each game accurately

it just does not feel like it is clicking for me and im starting to feel really demoralized

Hi,

As of August 2023, am I permitted to draw/write my game boards for LG with paper and pencil, whether remote or at a testing center ?

I am wondering if the way I study (p&p) will be the way I test .... and ... if my notes for logic games digital, would you please share your approach ?.... thanks, thanks and thanks and happy Fourth of July! Gisu

PS: I emailed LSAC support but have not gotten an answer yet and apparently I am impatient ;-)

Can you take the contrapositive of a causal statement? For example, if it said that A caused B, and we don't have B, is it logically corrected to say then we don't have A? Or does causation not work like that?

Did anyone else pick C instead of B? I thought that the 24 policy showed that it was important to have continuity of care so that if the doctors are tired during a shift it wouldn't have good continuity. But realizing now that I made a lot of assumptions and B is better. Is B right because it says that "now" there's a new policy that makes people stay in the hospital and that means that they're there at their most ill so its more important now to have good care?

Hello all!!

Can someone please explain this? I thought I understood suf vs. nec, but then I got to this question. It just won't click what is happening in the argument, and the videos are not helping me as much.

Thanks!

Can anyone help me on this question? I tried looking it up, but can't find it anywhere.

Hi I am confused on why the answer is B on PTF97 S1 Q2. I skipped it during my practice test to focus on easier ones first, but when I came back I was unsure about the answer. Also during BR I chose the wrong answer. Just need someone to explain! Thanks!

I took the June 2023 LSAT and din't do anywhere near what I want to end up with. I plan to retake this fall in either September, October, or November depending where I am PTing during this time. I bought the live classes package and have been working through the entire study schedule. I'm finding that I'm spending wayyyyyy too much time doing the Logical Reasoning lessons. I'm only on Week 3 but I'm already behind by a week and a half. Since I have already studied for a few months prior to the June LSAT, I know a good amount of information already regarding LR and LG, however, i significantly what to improve my LR. What is the best method to do so without having to spend 40 + hours a week reviewing the core curriculum? I'm getting confusing about the drilling tools an how and when I should be using them. I don't know what the most effective method is. I've heard great things about 7Sage and improving LSAT scores but I just feel stuck because I'm not sure how to work many things on this website HELP.

I am taking the LSAT in August.

So far, my highest LSAT score is 157.

Should I continue to focus on the syllabus/lessons sections or focus on completing LSAT prep Tests and watching the explanation videos after?

Hi. I was wondering since theres no scratch paper for logic games, how are we supposed to write stuff down?

thanks

Howdy everyone,

I am a June 2023 LSATer and got a 170 (yay!) but I want to go to a T-14 (Duke is my dream school). I’m a little disappointed since my average was a 173 (175,173,170,170,173,173,172), do you think it would be wise to retake? I am already registered for the August test, but I am trying to figure out whether I should get my refund. Until then, I am only able to dedicate weekends and the two weeks before I would take it to intense studying, so I am a little concerned with retaking it and getting the same score. Kind of in a middle ground, so any advice would be appreciated!

My GPA is a 3.83 since I graduated in three years and spent 2 of those years as STEM, and I am a non-URM wanting to go into public-interest.

Confused as to why the answer is C...

I thought the flaw of the argument was "just because its tested before it enters the market doesn't mean that its safe before you dump it into the river." None of the AC's matched my prephase, and I saw C as irrelevant.

Extraterrestrial does not necessarily mean that they are coming from other planets, but rather that they are coming from outside Earth's atmosphere. I am confused how this is the correct answer.

I understand that any choice proving that the murder rate would've been higher is correct, but I'm not understanding the connection between healthcare and assault victims. How is that relevant and what does it imply?
