LSAT · Multiple Correct Answers on Strengthening Questions?

ose209139

Thursday, Jul 31

I think that establishing a causal relationship between earthquakes and earthquake dreams, like A does, is a much stronger strengthener than eliminating a sort of unlikely alternative explanation. Sometimes the other 4 answer choices aren't wrong just because they're factually or logically incorrect, or even bc they weaken or do nothing vs strengthen... sometimes they're just noticeably flimsier strengthen/weakens. The causal relationship is the core/conclusion of the argument, therefore the thing that establishes it is the best strengthener. :)

Removing sections from analytics consideration

Hi all at 7sage,

I know you all have said you're working on letting accommodated test takers (and anyone who desires it) remove the experimental/any section from analytics consideration, but I just wanted to throw my hat in the ring that this is urgent. My analytics are literally nearly unusable because they count my experimental which I do not do. I have the accommodation and cannot practice under my test conditions AND have accurate analytics at the same time. This makes 7sage's usefulness very low in terms of just the infrastructure of drilling, for me. I'm hoping this can be a top priority for myself and others with accommodations, but I know you have a lot on your plate, and am grateful for everything you're doing as well as for your continual improvements.

Thanks!

LSAT · Is there a way to review your answers for a real LSAT

I believe there is very intentionally no way to do this. Occasionally the LSAC releases more practice/past tests, but it really is very occasional, and this August won't be out for a very long time. Sorry :/

LSAT · How to take three-section PTs?

ose209139

Monday, Jul 28

Honestly, I have the no-experimental accommodation on the real test, but I've just been taking the experimental when I test. It can only help stretch and improve my knowledge, memory, and stamina. I'm hoping when I take the real test, it'll be even easier than in practice. Plus, this is the issue; analytics are screwed up. I don't think 7sage yet has a way around this. :)

LSAT · How to go from -5 to -2 in RC

ose209139

Monday, Aug 19 2024

I am down to -2 RC with a 17low on my most recent PT, making RC my best section. I have two categories of advice. First, get RC Hero. It's really made my thinking about RC and its strategies much more intentional. It mechanizes everything. However, if RCH is still financially out of reach even after the discount for fee waivered folks, I have the following advice.

Track for authorial intent. Many if not most of the questions are about what the authors are saying, in some form. What's the author's main point? What's the author's tone in a word? What would author A or author B say, possibly in relation to each other? What is the author intending with x? This can be done by finding words or phrases that betray what the author really thinks; this can be sarcasm or sass, complete agreement, skepticism, etc. Look for words or phrases that convey emotion or judgement in some way.

Read for structure. I like to highlight the most important sentences/conclusions in yellow, important premises/evidence in pink, and key words/phrases in orange. Even just in performing this process, you're forced to think about sentences in relationship to each other, and paragraphs likewise. Understanding the structure of the passage is key to many of the questions.

Just my two cents!

Hi how did you make a study schedule? This makes so much sense.

tbh I have an awesome 7sage tutor who mostly did it for me! I'd recommend a tutor, specifically David Nash! But if you can't spend on one which I totally understand, it's basically just an outline that follows a basic strategy of each day of the week dedicating to LR, then RC, then LR, then RC, then a break, then a PT, then a blind review. Repeat more or less until test! The tutors give a ton more detail than I just gave so I'd super recommend them. I hope that helps :)

Also new to live classes/7sage! I have my own individual study schedule that a 7sage LSAT tutor and I agreed upon. If I feel like one of my study list objectives is something I'm not up to doing that day, I've been considering a class to be a viable alternative if it's on similar subject matter (LR versus RC, etc). Otherwise, I've been tacking on classes in addition to my daily study schedule. I feel like the live classes are helpful in different ways from independent study. I've just jumped into them for the most part without too much worry. I definitely am getting FOMO a bit if I miss one I wanted to attend, but mostly I try to view it as a supplement to my own study journey that is nice to have, but not the basis of the improvement I want to see. Maybe that'll help lower the stakes of missing classes a bit, to think of it like that?

I have a chronic fatigue related illness, and am asking my dr to write a letter endorsing this specific experimental-removing accommodation. I think, based on what I've seen on reddit, you just submit it to LSAC using the accommodations mechanism?

Did you go through the core curriculum carefully? There may be some fundamental misunderstandings about the test still lingering. Good luck! :)

Admissions · Reapplying to Law School - Personal Statement

Monday, Aug 11

I recently listened to a podcast with the Harvard/Yale deans of admission (not sure if it was them or another podcast but I'm 95% sure it was them) and they said you shouldn't reuse exactly the same materials/PS. I then wrote a new one. They're also going to know you were denied and will see your higher LSAT score, but I'd consider including one sentence in an addendum that you're re-applying with a higher score, just for context. Not necessary though imho. :)
