Congratulations! I am just starting my 7sage journey. Where can I find the "loophole?"
My tutor was Sam Wolf from apollo test prep (https://www.apollotestprep.com) could not recommend him more!

any tips? congrats!!!! celebrate. :smile:
I just edited the post to add some! Thanks!
Just wanted to say goodbye to this wonderful community and thank JY and everyone else for helping us thru this process. I started at a 159 diagnostic and after my third try got a 178, which I cannot believe!!
Edited to add some tips:
Honestly can't believe this score and can't quite fathom what that means for me as a reapplicant but just wanted to say that if you are privileged enough to be able to take a month off work and move in with your parents so that they feed you and nurture you and you can just focus on studying and exercising and meditating and can afford to pay $100+ to a great tutor (shout out apollo prep!) then everything is doable!!!
Much love to those juggling work and families out there, this game is unfair!
A few have asked for tips, so here are some:
-- for LR I had already done 7sage and read the loophole and felt I had a pretty solid background, so I got a tutor (apollo prep, I really recommend them!!) and realized that lol my background wasn't as sturdy. We'd just review questions I got wrong after blind review together and it was very useful.
-- for LG, I did all miscellaneous games and all hard games, I realized my weak point was facing new games I had not seen before so I just did that over and over, also reviewed games but focused mostly on knowing how to tackle them.
-- for RC, I read a lot and I tried to have a conversation with the writer as a read.
Good luck everyone!!
I'd recommend as much as possible making use of highlighting instead of note taking, but that might just be me as I have horrible handwriting
this is what progress looks like, hopefully with the right techniques and lots of practice you'll start to incorporate the things you know and show to know in BR during your timed sections. only luck could have gotten you to know during the PT what you didnt know during BR.
Your reasoning is super compelling and I agree, I think the issue though is that if they are extremelly demotivated they're probably struggling to even respond to your email, so I am not sure they'd be able to write a strong letter unless they had the previous ones they've written for you saved. What you gotta achieve is not so much convincing them that you are worth recommending (they already think that) but that they are worthy of writing a recommendation and that academia is worthy of their time, which is a much harder ask. I imagine your recommender is just extremelly burned out and just barely managing to continue to work, so finding reasons to care is super hard. Having said that, I'd definitely respond to ask again and just honestly remind them about why they matter to you and the impact they had on you and how much of a positive impact this letter could have. I don't know your relationship with them but you could also offer to have a phone call or somethign (though this might be too much given their current state as well!)
I had assumed they would but now I am not all that certain. I was registered (and unprepared for Oct) so I cancelled, but I was also hoping to apply before Jan 1st for a number of scholarships and now I feel like I might have made a terrible mistake!
Edit: I just realised that LSAC is only closed on Dec 25th, maybe 26th, and Jan 1st. I thought they'd be out from the 21st to the 1st or something. If anyone knows any better I'd be happy to hear it thanks!
@"David.Busis"?
Any guesses?
Thanks!
Yes, came here to say this! Is there any way you could keep the target time?
Thanks!

When the access is shut off, will we just lose the videos, or will we lose access to the entire explanation page (e.g. https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-58-section-3-game-3/ ).
In particular, it would be cool if we could still at least see JY's recommended target time for each set.
Also, it would be super cool if someone would go through each video and transcribe JY's opening thoughts (e.g. "this is an easy one", "this is the hardest game in the set", etc.), and add that to the text of the page that we'll retain access to once the videos are locked down. But that's probably pretty labor intensive.
Thanks @jy-ping.Y, please let us know! I had not realised this would affect those of us with the starter package :(

Thank you for letting us know. I am so glad that I heard of 7Sage through your logic videos online, and it is unfortunate to hear that they will have to come down.
Are you thinking about having the logic game videos available to all students, regardless of what package they have purchased on 7Sage?
Obvious Ultimate+ gets everything, but I'm not sure yet about the other course levels. I'll think about this and let you know in a week.

Hi guys,
I have been studying seriously since the beginning of September but I just don't seem to be improving very much. My diagnostic score was a 162 (pt43). Since then, these are my scores:
2007: 163
73: 158
39: 165
25: 163
78: 165
53: 165
75: 164
My weakest section is logic games. In LR in the latest tests I have been getting between 2-4 wrong. and RC is 2-4 wrong too. Should I just keep doing games as JZ suggests? I know it is a decent score but with my diagnostic I had pretentiously hoped I would see quick improvements. I am taking the Nov LSAT.
Thank you!!
