Hello everyone, Luke here!
I started working with 7Sage without having any prior LSAT experience, and in the span of just a few months, I went from spending nearly an hour on a basic 10-question drill to securing a 172 on the LSAT, while working an 8-5:30 job at a law firm.
Now, I'm looking to break into the world of LSAT tutoring by helping my fellow prospective law students find the kind of approach that works best for them: an approach that enables them to work smarter, not harder!
The LSAT is very difficult to conquer solely through problem-solving techniques - it also demands a certain kind of mental fortitude and focus that can't really be obtained through traditional material. I aim to create an environment where my students feel empowered to experiment with different methods of blocking out their practice time, approaches to their weakest question types, and strategies for removing complexity from stimuli, so that when test day comes, they can march into the test center with confidence and clarity!

Independent TutorNeed help - LSAC CAS "Other Institutions" section doesn't show institutions I received credit from
Hello 7Sage community,
I am working on my law school applications, and need to submit transcripts from every credit-bearing institution I've attended to LSAC CAS. The transcripts from the university I actually graduated from have already been processed, but I also need to include the organizations I received transfer credit from. Problem is, these organizations aren't listed in the dropdown menu under "Add Other Institution."
The site will not let me progress without selecting a school from the dropdown, and I see no option to manually input an institution's name.
Can anyone help?
Thanks in advance,
AptitudeLSAT
@DeliaCanDoIt! I believe that an argument being “unsupported” doesn’t have to mean it has no support, just that the support it does have is very weak, likely relying on unreasonable assumptions. In other words, the information provided isn’t sufficient to draw an inference. The Dalmatian argument is a great example of this - as stated by jenko14, there is still an attempt to persuade here, with a premise and a conclusion. The aim and the definition have been satisfied, so all that’s left is for there to be support. “Dalmatians have spots” is a premise attempting to support the conclusion, and although it doesn’t do a very good job at it, I would still consider your example an argument because it adheres to the fundamental makeup of one, with all three elements present.
