Our first victim of the week.

Friday, August 14th at 7PM ET: PT74

It's gonna be awesome. Just a reminder that we'll retake this test in September.

PT59 BR Tonight at 8pm ET

EVERYBODY.

YEEEEAH. Rock your BR with us tonight at 8pm ET!

Note on all groups

I know. You're thinking about skipping out on BR groups this week. It's summer, you're having "fun," and October seems so far away. Well, it's not. Don't skip BR groups this week.

Listen to the GIF!

Note: Weekday (Weds/Fri) calls now starting at 8PM ET. We haven't had many West Coasters with schedule restraints on recently and would like to give the East Coasters a break (since we've been on until nearly midnight for them recently).

Please also note: Saturday calls still start at 8PM ET!

Wednesday, August 5th at 8PM ET: PT59

Last PT in the 50's!

(s)Friday, August 7th at 8PM ET: PT74

Frighteningly recent test.(/s) rescheduled for next Friday.

LSATurday, August 8th at 8PM ET: PT60

Did you ever imagine having this much fun on a Saturday night??!

Note on all groups

PT58 BR Tonight at 8pm ET

Come on. We've got 63 days until October 3rd. You don't seriously have other plans for tonight, besides PT58 BR?

Make Putin proud. BR with us tonight at 8pm ET!

Note on all groups

PT73 BR Tonight at 8pm ET

Well, well, well. About 2 months out and we're gonna BR us some PT73. Needless to say ...

NOTE: We are meeting at 8pm ET tonight. Not 8:30. Latecomers welcome! Gotta give the East Coast folks a break.

Note on all groups

9 weeks.

WAIT. We can help! Join Blind Review groups this week!

Please also note: Saturday calls still start at 8PM ET!

Wednesday, July 29th at 8PM ET: PT57

Our Saturday call was rescheduled and thus we are doing PT57 on Weds.

Friday, July 31st at 8PM ET: PT73

I really hope this one is nicer than PT72.

LSATurday, August 1st at 8PM ET: PT58

For those of you who may have already taken PT58 in anticipation of this week, be sure to join us for LSATurday! And for everyone else ... YOU BETTER BE THERE. Don't make me name names.

Note on all groups

PT57 BR Tonight at 8pm ET

I'm just gonna go ahead and assume that if you're joining us tonight, you've already taken PT57. And if you have, you know what this means.

And if you haven't, then you'll soon understand.

NOTE: We are meeting at 8pm ET tonight. Not 8:30. Latecomers welcome! Gotta give the East Coast folks a break.

Note on all groups

Update: Just kidding, y'all ... I'll be on all of the calls this week :D

(s)Eleven(/s) TEN weeks. Four days. And change. That's how long we've got until the October LSAT.

It's about to get real. I'm 80% of my way through this phase of my LSAT life.

Note: Weekday (Weds/Fri) calls now starting at 8:30PM ET.

Please also note: Saturday calls still start at 8pmET!

Wednesday, July 22nd at 8:30pm ET: PT56

It's on!

Friday, July 24th at 8:30pm ET: PT72

This will likely be a very small group, but I will be there. A few of us want to keep taking PT's in the later test eras so that we can retake/learn mo' deeply.

(s)LSATurday, July 18th at 8pm ET: PT57

I'll be there. Will you?(/s) didn't happen.

Note on all groups

Hello Everyone. I am creating this discussion to find out if anyone here has similar work hours with me and interested in BRing in the morning or on Monday or Tuesday night. If you are, please comment below and we can see if we can come up with another BR group in addition to the ones that already exist here.

PT71 BR Tonight at 8:30pm ET

Guys, I am so sad to miss this one. Gotta pick some folks up at the airport. Make me less sad by enjoying PT71 BR in my absence. @jengibre will be there to kick it off. And several others will be there too. So you should be one of them.

Remember the kittens ...

PT53 BR Tonight at 8pm ET

It's your favorite day of the week.

PT52 BR Tonight at 8:30pm ET

Don't miss out on tonight's PT52 blind review group, featuring none other than the infamous ...

JY said not to feel bad about getting this question—one of the nastiest curve-breakers ever—wrong. But we are going to punish that question for its bad, bad ways and its subtle, devious assumptions.

Note on all groups

Edit: LOL much date confusion.

Well, I missed the Friday call because vacation and now I have sad feels. BR withdrawal feels. So let's get back on our proverbial ponies and kick the LSAT in the face.

Note: We've got several West Coasters now, so Weekday (Weds/Fri) calls now starting at 8:30PM ET **unless** there are very serious objections. We'll dial in a few minutes ahead of 8:30 to let us get all out chatterings out of the way so that we can start BR'ing at 8:30pm sharrrrrrrp

Wednesday, July 8th at 8:30pm ET: PT52

Finally, we get some comparative passages!

Friday, July 10th at 8:30pm ET: PT70

Wowww! Lucky number 70.

Note on the Friday group: If you want to join, let me know on Skype (nikkers625) and I will add you to this one—all are welcome.

LSATurday, July 11th at 8pm ET: PT53

Go team go!

Note on all groups

Please note that as of July 6th, I am not updating this thread as much. There are far too many BR groups for me to keep track of. The newest BR groups will be at the top of the "Study Groups" category, here:

http://classic.7sage.com/forums/categories/study-groups

Please PM the author of each thread to be invited to the BR group! (Note: I am not the author!)

BR Calendar: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1wNxrEU0-YfiID5upvTUlAOo8J-MvXfM2K7mvUkcD1xc/

BR groups always active through Skype! Add nikkers625 on Skype, or PM Nicole! ( @nicole.hopkins )

Q: What happens during these BR groups?

@nicole.hopkins We go through every question in the test, in order. Where LR questions benefit from diagramming, we use a white board app (links provided during the call); we also diagram all of the LG using the same app (several people diagram since some of us use slightly different methods).

Everyone takes the PT for that week under timed/exam simulating conditions. Then, those who are able BR the whole test on their own (I am often not able to BR the whole thing on my own and it's literally never been a problem). We meet on Skype at the appointed day/time (usually 3.5 hours, give or take) and go through the whole test. It's fun and hardcore.

For a lot of us, the PT's we do are retakes but everyone benefits, no matter if it's a fresh test for you or not. Feel free to listen in sometime to see what it's like (PM me with your Skype handle).

Can you believe we're already in week 4 of our BR's of Summer?

Please note, we will NOT be having a call on Saturday, July 4th because America.

Wednesday, July 1st at 8pm EST: PT51

Our basins of attraction were thoroughly riddled on Saturday, so let's move right along.

Friday, July 3rd at 8pm EST: PT69

For those of us who want to be able to retake and/or drill from tests up to PT71, we will have Friday sessions to BR those later tests. This is likely to be a smaller group but open to anyone.

Note on the Friday group: If you want to join, let me know on Skype (nikkers625) and I will add you to this one—all are welcome, some are willing. Most are trying to make valid inferences and/or diagramming these sentences in their heads right now. #so-meta

NO GROUP on July 4th

Here's what I'll be doing on LSATurday evening:

Note on all groups

Hi y'all. PT51 BR tonight. You know you love it!

Let's all try to sign on at 8:15 EST tonight for BR group because we want to start at 8:30 SHARP (accommodating West Coasters coming home from work because inclusion). In fact, I will be so bold as to say that if I am the only person actually on the call at 8:30 I will start talking to myself on the call.

And I do mean 8:30* SHARP ...

*We often don't get into the real-deal BR'ing until about this time so I am planning on us wrapping up around 11PM EST. Ok, hoping is a better word.

Hello all,

Add/message me on Skype (nikkers625) if you want to join the BR group tonight!

Howdy, folks—

It's week 3 and it's hot in Texas. Let's blast these PT's with some AC (Aggressive Collaboration ... though air conditioning will also be on!).

Wednesday, June 24th at 8pm EST: PT49

It's our last PT in the 40's and contains that infamous Maize RC passage. Let's make those kernels pop.

Friday, June 26th at 8pm EST: PT68

For those of us who want to be able to retake and/or drill from tests up to PT71, we will have Friday sessions to BR those later tests. This is likely to be a smaller group but open to anyone.

LSATurday, June 27th at 8pm EST: PT50

Finally made our way to the 50's.

Note on all groups

Ok, folks. Let's discuss options for BR groups heading towards October.

(s)We have two matters to consider:(/s) Consideration done! Here's what we're doing:

Next week, Wednesday will be PT47, Friday PT67, and Saturday PT48, and so on, and so forth, until we ride into the Oct 3rd tests on chariots of fire.

We do have a special request to switch the Wednesday session to a Tuesday session. For this week, obviously we will be meeting tonight, but I will raise the question on the call to see if everyone is ok with this change. I'll keep y'all posted with any changes.

_______

(Archive of original post follows)

1) Which tests to BR

My top priority is to get all the way through PT75 (June '15). I'm sure this is your priority, too. We have 34 sessions between now and September 30th if we meet twice weekly (with PT65 happening this Saturday), which should be the last group call for the Oct 3rd test.

That means we have to make a choice between:

1) Starting with PT36, making it to PT51 on August 1st, and then skipping ahead to PT59 on August 5th. That would mean we would skip tests that the group has already BR'ed (but I recognize that new people might not want to skip these tests).

2) Starting with PT45 and going all the way through to PT75. This is better for those who favor exposure to the newer tests over exposure to older tests. On the whole, this one would be my recommendation, but I want to see if others have a preference.

My question to you: Which course do we follow?

2) When to do the groups

I propose the following. Please either respond to this thread or PM me if you have strong objections.

—Every Saturday at 8pm EST (note the time change). Our sessions have been averaging around 3 hours (shorter than previous sessions) and I do not think 11pm is too late for most of the East Coasters to wrap up the call.

—Every Wednesday at 8pm EST (if we have a lot of West Coasters who work full time, we can perhaps find some wiggle room depending on how long your commutes are. I hesitate to set it any later as that would push the East Coasters near midnight by the time we finish)

My question to you: Do these days work for you?

To all who have participated or reached out to me about participating: Please make your lovely voices heard!

Dear friends,

It's already week 2. Do you know where your PT BR Group is?

Wednesday, June 17th at 8pm EST: PT47

PT47 will whimper audibly when we're done with it.

Friday, June 19th at 8pm EST: PT67

For those of us who want to be able to retake and/or drill from tests up to PT71, we will have Friday sessions to BR those later tests. This is likely to be a smaller group but open to anyone.

Note on the Friday group: Please PM me and specifically ask to be added to this one; as it's a smaller group, I won't call everyone from the bigger groups unless you specifically let me know you're up for some crazy PT66+ action. And yes you can translate that last sentence into Lawgic for fun and flair.

LSATurday, June 20th at 8pm EST: PT48

PT48 will bend to our will, per usual.

Note on all groups

Y'all, PT67 BR is happening at 8pm EST tonight. Add/message me on Skype if you want to join and aren't in the group/convo yet. My Skype name is nikkers625 .

Another week, another Wednesday: perfect opportunity to join our group BR session over Skype for some:

1) Fun

Friday, June 12th at 8pm EST: PT66

For those of us who want to be able to retake and/or drill from tests up to PT71, we will have Friday sessions to BR those later tests. This is likely to be a smaller group but open to anyone.

Note on the Friday group: Please PM me and specifically ask to be added to this one; as it's a smaller group, I won't call everyone from the bigger groups unless you specifically let me know you're up for some crazy PT66+ action.

LSATurday, June 13th at 8pm EST: PT46

Rollin' rollin' rollin'...we'll affectionately beat the snot out of PT46 on Saturday night.
