Wanna BR tonight? PT69 at 7pm ET

Well I won't be there. But I think some others will. SO. Add me on Skype (nikkers625) and let me know if you want to join in. I might be able to pop in at the beginning just in case it's all newbies on the call. And then I will abandon you and you will just have to get therapy for that later.

    Looking for a study buddy who's currently scoring either in the mid to high 160s.

    My goal is to score in the 170+. Ideally, would love to BR LR & RC session, at least one each per week. Ideally EST would be great.

    If interested DM me.

    Hello,

    Myself, elle.sat.woods180 and emaanc99

    Are looking to add one more members to our study group. The reason you may have seen me post recently is because we are starting this study group this Sunday.

    Our goal is to reach +170 scores for the 2021-2022 academic year.

    The highest score I have received on the LSAT was a 167. I have scored 165 multiple times and my most recent LSAT scores have been varied from 160 to 167. I have taken approximately 80 LSAT Preptests. I only have 10 more. I took these tests in numerical order but also decided to take LSAT 89 and 88 because of their difficulty in order to prepare myself for the November/January LSAT. It did not work.

    Our method of study is to pick LR/LG/RC questions/passages and blind review them. We will pick questions and passages based on their difficulty. We would spend an hour or two every weekend to meet as a group and go over the questions/passages that we selected.

    The most beneficial way to use a study group in my opinion is to have the members of the study group verbally present an explanation to difficult questions they answered on either their LSAT Prep Tests or had on their general study and have the other members of the group try to question the assumptions and weakness of the explanation that was provided. The actual act of trying to explain an answer will help refine our own understating of the question and the exam overall.

    This is the basis that I want to have for the study group. We will improvise and adapt when necessary but I expect us to have a rigid schedule so that we can see returns for our efforts.

    Send me a direct message if you are interested in joining our group.

    Thanks,

    Hey all I'm looking to start up a study group my diagnostic is 154 currently in the high150s to middle 160s. Aiming to hit high 160s mid 170s and looking for people with similar targets. Mostly once a week meet up online with possibly more if schedules allow. I'd be happy to set up a discord or groupme depending on what everyone wants. If you are interested please lmk.

    Superprep! Get your formerly non-disclosed test on! Answer that age old question: Is it really the “Champion of LSAT preparation”?

    Hi All,

    To be brief, I’m a philosophy PhD student looking for people on the same boat: is in graduate school, studying for the LSAT, plans to go to law school.

    If you’re interested, please DM me or leave a comment on this post. I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

    Looking forward to hearing from y’all!

    P.S. thanks to JD who encouraged me to write this post.

    Hi guys,

    Let's get ready for June together! I find that 7sage is great for self study, but when it comes to writing PTs I like to put myself in an environment where other people are writing, too. I find I perform better around real people and it makes PTs go down easier when you're not the only one doing it.

    I was thinking of getting a little group going where we get together once a week and write a PT, BR it and then discuss answers. I'm in Oshawa but I would be happy to meet in Toronto.

    (As always, don't share your personal information publicly -- just post here if you're interested and I'll get it going.)

    All,

    Please PM me if you are interested in joining a small October study group of Hawaii (where I am) and West Coast peeps with the intention of scoring 175+ (realistically). Tell me a bit about yourself.

    I am a super splitter and would love to study with a few HIGHLY motivated fellow splitters with T3 to T14 aspirations.

    GPA: 3.2

    LSAT Diagnostic: 152 (with no studying)

    Work Experience: 11 years (military officer)

    Personally, my strength is RC (-8 cold-turkey diagnostic, almost everything right except what I ran out of time for). My LR was -10 (again, mainly due to time constraints), and my LG -15. I fully expect to be able to drill LG down to -0 or -1 (I'm rather good at puzzles and recognize that I am likely one of those people who will benefit GREATLY from fool-proofing games). LR I suspect I can get to -3 max and also -3 max on RC.

    A note, while I expect to be able to eventually score 175+, I do not know that I will be able to do so in six months of studying, but hell, we might as well try, eh. I also have a LOT of free time to study.

    A few notes on me and my aspirations:

    I am an 11 year military officer and Service Academy graduate (I fully expect to receive a GPA boost from most schools that I apply to and also double majored and had VERY strong technical course grades, so may be less of a splitter than I appear (and am also 11 years removed from undergrad)); Service Academies have zero grade inflation, increased credit and technical course requirements, as well as military/athletic obligations on top of academic).

    I am also LGBTQ+, agender (born female), have a kind of insane resume, volunteer experience, first four year college graduate in my family, D1 Varsity athlete, club President, first law school applicant in family, among other interesting obstacles. Essentially, I expect to have VERY strong essays and a strong resume.

    My interest lies in International Human Rights (specializing in environmental and energy security) law.

    At 175+ I expect to have realistic chances of getting into all T3 to T14 schools. At 179+, I also expect to have a fighting chance at YS (but still only in the 30th-ish percentile as far as chances are concerned).

    I would love to study with some like-minded people.

    Much Love,

    Chuck

    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

  • For the newbies: Add me on Skype, using handle nikkers625 .
  • For the regulars: Please let me know if you plan to join tonight's session and have not yet been added to the conversation.
  • For everyone: take the PT under timed conditions; BR as you are able; join us for all or part of the call—everyone is welcome.
  • Note: For the purposes of the call, we like to check our group blind review score together at the very end of the call :) So please do not check your answers beforehand :-) Or if you do, just try not to say things like "No, guys, I checked, it's D."
  • These groups work best when folks from ALL stages of prep and with all different goals join in! Not just for "super-preppers" and definitely not just for the casual LSATer (does such a person exist?).
  • PLEASE ... Ask questions !!!! In so doing you are giving others the opportunity to uncover weaknesses in their own understanding, review fundamentals, and ultimately improve their own score. And you're giving yourself the opportunity to do the same. Wow, such harmonious learning experience.

    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!

    7 Sage is an excellent method of preparing for LSAT as all here know.

    I was wondering if anyone has experiences with LSATMax and can they recommend for LSAT prep.

    I was thinking in terms of Jan2020 LSAT preparation.

    December Test Takers! This is it! This is what you’ve all been waiting for! One last BR and then on Saturday, it’s game on!

    My advice: taper down on effort. You don’t necessarily have to do nothing this week (especially LG. Use it or lose it), but this week should require less effort from you than the past 10 weeks have. In other words, don’t do 5 PTs this week. And if you can, don’t look at the score of any PTs you take this week. Confidence is so important for the LSAT, and you don’t want yours wrecked by one stupid score. Just take the PT and BR and then have fun discussing the test in a BR group. And that leads into the last piece of advice for this week: Have fun and remember this Saturday’s test is just PT 77. That’s it! Best of luck to all of you!

    Hi. I am taking the LSAT flex in about 3 months from now in June 2021. I am preparing to retake the LSAT again in either October 2021 or November 2021 if I do not score high enough for my first choice law school for which I will be applying there early decision for their part time program.

    I am preparing for the LSAT using numerous study methods including 7 Sage. I am located in Brooklyn Heights at NYC. I am looking for a study partner or study partners that can either meet up live in person or just want to do this over Zoom instead.

    Reply back with your contact information which is your email address, how are you studying for the LSAT, your current LSAT score, and top choice law school that you want to attend. Thanks!
