I took the Jan LSAT and only got a 160 when I was consistently ptesting at 167 range. I'm fool proofed at LG. I am switching up my study methods to read The Loophole. Hopefully that will improve my LR.
I plan my study schedule, once I'm done with The Loophole, to be:
Monday: 2 LR /BR
Tuesday: Review /2 LG
Wednesday: 2 LC /BR
Thursday: Review /2 LG
Friday: Review question type specific
Saturday: Full PT and BR
Sunday: Break
What do you think about my approach? I am still aiming for 170+.
Thanks for all responses and sorry for the late reply. I was recovering from the Jan LSAT a few days ago. With my timing on LR, I finish with about 8 mins to go back and go over questions I am unsure of. I'm considering The Loophole book as I've heard good things about it.
@jhaldy10325 reading some of your comments on "moving on" quickly when I'm stuck between two answer choices.
I'm going to study lightly for the next few weeks to until I find out my score for my last LSAT. I hope I cracked 170!
JY has explained this question perfectly for me to understand. Are there any other questions with this trick that i can practice with? #help
Very interesting question and answers. I've seen LSAT writers use the same trick as they use here. If you read answer D after reading answer B, it influences you to choose answer D. This is because the LSAT writers are hoping you remember incorrectly answer B as a part of the question.

I will take the PT while circling the questions I think I've missed. I'll go back and the end and review the question to see if I'll change an answer. After I will review the questions I missed by trying to see if I can get the question correct on a 3rd try. Last, I review all questions to reinforce what I've learned from the PT. I'll focus on the lowest difficulty problem types I missed. For example: If I missed three 3 start PSA questions and everything else I missed were 4 star questions, I'll drill PSA questions.
Why am I getting hung up on A vs. E. Is A solely wrong because many customers wouldn't benefit and it leaves room for many other customers that can benefit? Is it also wrong because it doesn't fail the sufficient in the exception? #help
JY hit this one on the nail for me. I definitely did make that assumption he describes in the variable.
Sages,
After raising my PTs from 149 to 166, I've plateaued! The last three PTs I've been scoring at 166 and need to improve more. I am usually going -0 in logic games and -7 in each of the other sections.
I've been taking PTs and looking what question types I've got incorrect and drilled with those. I'm also sleeping well, with a balanced diet and workout schedule. What are ways to get over this plateau?
i was very close to picking D but I thought it would require outside knowledge so I got E oof
I got this right because B was the best answer but I actually took a bit of time on this. Chad never explicitly says he thinks there are too many cats. He only says they are a nuisance. I feel like a logical jump like this on a more difficult question could lead me to the wrong answer. Am I missing something here? #help
This was a good question to get wrong for me. After watching JYs video the answer seems pretty straightforward. The causal conclusion the argument expresses is about two completely different items compared to the premise. I need to be more diligent about reading the premises
A) Premise
B) not the conclusion, the author is refuting a particular solution
C) this is a premise to support the conclusion
D) no, the only refuted solution is the colonization of other planets
E) Correct, this is the author’s conclusion
A) Not stated in the stimulus wrong
B) The ethicist believes this but does not encompass the conclusion
C) Same as above, btu is not the conclusion
D) Unstated in stimulus
E) Correct, this is the author’s conclusion
I've just been approved with 50% extra time. Here's some background info:
-I'm taking November 2019 LSAT
-Completing the ultimate CC this week
-still working on fool-proofing LG
This gives me about 11 weeks to study. Aiming for 168+. How should I change my methods for 1.5x tests? I imagine LG would be the same strategy, but what about LC and LR? Are there any tutors that specialize in 1.5x LSAT?
Q23 AC is annoying. The word "sanction" has two definitions. It can mean both permissive or restrictive.
P1: NA tribes rec by US ~70s had court drama
P2: ex: Mashpee
Town: no delineated boundaries= not self gov = no territory
Mashpee: But oral culture is diff
P3: US courts begin to ack. the diff. in cult.
I've done some number crunching and determined the rest of my schedule for leading up to the June 2019 LSAT (~27 days away). I am studying full-time currently. I am currently fool-proofing logic games and have about 90 hours of logic game study left. This makes my study schedule as follows:
Now until May 22nd: Logic Games fool-proofing
May 23rd to June 1st: 6 full-length practice tests (one full day for a test and one full day for each review)
June 2nd: rest day
June 3rd: LSAT
Does 7Sage think I should change my schedule up leading up in June LSAT?
I get why E is correct, but I dont get why B is incorrect. Can someone point me in the right direction? why can't increased salaries explain this phenomenon? #help
#help i still really dont see how C is necessary. I dont understand why any NS needs to be near AT LEAST 1 minor fault. I anticipated an answer choice that would say that a NS is near AT MOST 1 minor fault.
i get it but can someone point me so similar questions? should I drill some Para questions? #help
