@jivansekhon160.Tharp The 3rd LR for mine was experimental. I remember a question for doctor's handwriting in that section and it was on the list of experimental questions by Dillon.

@orfehvahabzadeh509 thank you! Just saw the post that for my 3 LRs, the middle one is experimental! So sad since I did really bad on the first LR and was not confident in the last LR after the LG section :(

need some cheer up

I have just upgraded to ultimate+ from ultimate for the sake of newer PT explanations. I was almost finished with my core curriculum in ultimate account and now the progress bar rolled back.......

Lost some patience/confidence when I logged in again. Wish there could be a function to let us choose the lower account material only.

Hopefully there is enough time for Dec Lsat.

I chose E as well. Since if I negate E, the the palace discussed at length is not aesthetically important, then Morton does not need to talk about it to meet the aesthetic requirement. Morton could have mentioned other aesthetic factors in his book but just didn't mention this particular one. Morton could have fulfilled the aesthetic requirement by talking about other masterpieces in his book but we just don't know since it is not mentioned in the stimulus. Thus, E is necessary.

Could someone help me in pointing out where I was wrong?

Thanks!

I also don't get the logic in this problem. I analyzed the logic as below:

IGA→A&U

/Aor/U→F

So /A doesn't go back to the first condition to get IGA......

Could someone help me here as well? I am definitely wrong here but I don't know where I was wrong.

Thanks in advance.

I think we are trying to figure out whether the D was up or down during last year and that was why the time point matters (at least in my opinion)? That is also the correct answer choice.

However I think you are wrong in pointing out only S is down for last year.

2015: S/D is down. Price is high.

2016: S is up. Price is high.

Conclusion (correct answer choice): D is up in 2015.

That the year is not the same year is confusing me.

Thank you! I get the point of how the ratio of S/D influence the fuel price. I am confused about the time when this 2 conditions happened.

S/D decreases sharply LAST year, S increases THIS year. How can we draw any conclusion since S/D ratio and S supply given to us are not at the same time point?

1. Your three-sentence biography:

My name is Anna, I have an undergraduate degree in Biomedical engineering from an international institution, mechanical and electrical engineering master's degree from US universities and I am an ESL student. I worked as a technical advisor (patent agent) after graduating with my 2nd MS degree in a boutique IP law firm for about 2 years and stopped working due to medical issue since 2015. I have 2 children (2 years old and 2 months old) and my husband is an officer, I am now taking care of them while studying for the LSAT.

2. Your biggest worry about your application.

I don't have an undergraduate GPA since I obtained my undergraduate degree from out side of US. LSAC rated my UGPA as Above Average. As English is not my first language, I am mostly worried about my writing especially Personal Statement.

3. Two ideas for your personal statement.

a) Maybe talk about my journey of coming to the US alone to study 5000 miles away from home. The struggle both culturally and academically, the loneliness, and the burden of surviving financially. Academically, I need to adjust myself to the new school, new environment, and new ways of studying and doing researches. As a Teaching assistant, I need to hold lab sessions 3 times a week, which basically is a public speech one hour each time. For a non-native speaker, it was a nightmare in the beginning but in the end I received excellent teaching award from school. I even worked as an adjunct instructor at a private university for a semester. I also have research duties which was interesting and hard but I managed to publish a few papers on peer reviewed journals. I was also doing multiple internships to earn extra money and gain more experiences while taking the maximum credits I could each semester to save the tuition. However the most difficult part is the loneliness, coming from an Asian culture, it is difficult to be alone without families and friends around. I enjoy being tired and fill my schedule full with loads of work because I feel lonely and even cries sometime when I am by myself. I overcome these in the end.

b) Perhaps, I should talk about more recent experience about being a military spouse, support my husband emotionally, adjust myself to the military life and survive severe medical complications myself without anyone around to help. My strong technical background in biomedical, mechanical, and electrical engineering will make me a good fit for IP law and I have experiences working with patents already. But I feel like talking about how much I love patent law is really plain and not interesting. Maybe I should combine the 2 topics together?

4.Did you attend last time? Did I get to you?

No and no. Hopefully I get to attend this time!

I eliminated all the 5 answer choices due to a confusion and I hope someone can help me with it.

My confusion is between the term of "past year" and "last year". I understand completely JY's explanation about the ratio of S/D but didn't draw any useful inferences from the stimulus.

My understanding is that the ratio of S/D decreases past (last) year, and S increases today comparing to last year (which tells us nothing about whether S increases or not during last/past year).

Could someone help me clarify this?

Thanks in advance!

Oh that makes some sense! Thanks @nye887085

I am wondering if there is a list of these kind of expressions that I should be alert about? "as many as" is certainly not the only one.

https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-33-section-1-question-11/

I got my answer right for this question. But in JY's explanation, he explained the meaning of the last sentence as: # of people who consume Caffeine is GREATER OR EQUAL to # of people who consume other addictive substances.

I am confused that JY explained "as many as"="GREATER OR EQUAL to". I always remember "as many as" means "EQUAL to" from my grammar lesson. Could someone help me with this confusion?

Thank you in advance!

BTW, JY mentioned this question is extremely hard. How much time should I spend on an extremely hard questions? I am still in drilling mode and I spend 4 mins on this question. I know for sure that is too much time for 1 question........

Use the access code 196-286-165.

Use the audio PIN shown after joining the meeting.

I am so sad I missed this webinar! Could 7Sage please post this webinar online or someone please post their notes? I don't think these materials is available in the admission package and real examples from fellow 7sagers are really helpful.

Suggestion: Could David be really kind to post his comment to each PS whom he gave advices to? @davidbusis895.busis

Thank you @connollykev567 for the suggestions of annotation methods!

@jennilynn89537 Thank you for sharing with me your experiences! I will start to read Economics to get myself familiar with the art/social science/literature matters.

@jennilynn89537 Thanks for the advice! I will also do more drills in the subject that I am not familiar with!
