Hi there! I created a post a few days again about a PST based study group for the June 2022 LSAT specifically focused on those who are seeking a 180. Here is a link to the original post: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/31609/for-those-looking-for-a-180-discord-study-group-for-june-2022-exam/p1.

I'm making another post to reach more people who are interested in joining and being active participants on this discord server. Also, as the title mentions, Scott Milam, who scored a 180 himself, kindly accepted my offer to join and participate on the discord. He has his own channel where you can ask him questions directly. And in the near future I plan on organizing a group video call session to speak with him and hear more about his journey and what it was like getting a 180. He is very much looking forward to meeting other determined students with their goals set on a 180.

If you want to be part of a serious study group where we delve into LR, RC, and LG topics, talk strategy and logic, and review PTs together, please message me demonstrating your interest.

Thank you and look forward to being in contact.

I am a splitter with 3ish GPA and 172. After seeing people bashed by this vicious cycle, I decided to retake my LSAT in August. Looking for 1-3 study buddies shooting for 175+

Hey guys please dm me!! I have an official score looking for serious study buddies!! I also offer free tutoring, dm if needed

THIS STUDY GROUP IS AT CAPACITY Thank you, everyone. I wish you the best of luck in your studies!****

Hello, Everyone!

(Sort of a long post warning.)

Monday, March 14, 2022 to June 11, 2022 is roughly 90 days, and just over 150 days until the August 12, 2022 LSAT.

I am aiming to take the June 11 LSAT and most likely the August 12 LSAT. I am also targeting September 30, 2022 as a personal deadline to get my applications in. To that end, the study group I am proposing would include the prep for the test and potentially peer support for the application process.

I personally have the self-control/discipline of a soggy newspaper when it comes to making myself sit down and study for the LSAT and need to create a space/time where I am held accountable for my study time. Therefore, I’m looking for folks interested in being study and/or accountability buddies to meet virtually over zoom.

I recognize that we are all in different places in our LSAT journey and also have different goals regarding our scores and potential law schools we’d like to attend. Some of us may still have to complete the core curriculum—or complete it again—, others may have finished everything and are using a supplement to 7sage; whatever it is or wherever you’re at is perfectly fine and you are welcome in this group.

This group is open to all with the caveat that it be a judgement free place.

To keep it inclusive and supportive, I propose that our official LSAT score goals and current practice test scores be kept private from each other.

If there are questions that have particularly stumped you or something you’ve finally had a breakthrough on, there will be one day a week to share that on, but for the most part the study plan/schedule I’ve proposed below is a mostly silent zoom meeting arrangement.

Monday through Friday, I will be studying from 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM PST (five or so minutes in the beginning to get settled and then a ten minute break sometime in the middle and five minutes at the end to wrap up) and then another hour in the evening from 7:30 PMish to 8:30 PMish. These meetings will be a silent (except at intro 5 min, break, and end 5 min) zoom meeting where we would work though our own LSAT prep.

Saturdays, I will be focusing on practice tests 2:30 PM to 5:00 PM (10 min break around 3:10 PM). I will be using a virtual proctor/YouTube video for this to simulate testing day.

Sundays will be for blind review and if there are any problems the group wants to try to look at and figure out together and maybe a bit more of an opportunity to socialize/commiserate/brainstorm/share resources, etc. 2:00 PMish to 4:00 PMish

You don’t have to commit to every day or the full time on each day for the study sessions to be a part of this group.

If there are interested parties in this study arrangement, I was thinking that this Sunday, March 13 around 7:00 PM PST we could have a virtual meet and greet on zoom to get to know each other a bit before we get into the study grind on Monday, March 14, 2022.

My goal is to create an inclusive and supportive study group and maybe make a few new friends along the way.

Study Schedule starting March 14, 2022 to June 10, 2022:

Monday: 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM; 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Tuesday: 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM; 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Wednesday: 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM; 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Thursday: 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM; 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Friday: 7:00 AM to 9:00 AM; 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM

Saturday: 2:30 PM to 5:00 PM

Sunday: 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM

If you are interested please comment below or send me a message and I’ll send you a zoom link for the meeting on Sunday, March 13, 2022. If you are reading this post after March 13, 2022 and are interested, comment below or message me.

Per 7Sage's discussion rules please refrain from including your private information (i.e. email addresses and phone numbers, etc) in your comments.

Thank you so much for reading my post. I hope we can be study buddies!

I am taking the LSAT at the end of April. I know that retention/progress are gained when you are able to teach and learn with someone else. I am in the 165 range and want to move my score closer to a 170. Looking for someone scoring at least a 160. I am in PST and study 12-16 hours daily. Message me if interested.

Looking to start a study group for the April and June tests. Currently plan on taking both.

Down to create a discord. Feeling fairly confident on LR and somewhat confident on LG but definitely need to focus on RC…

Shoot me a message or comment below if interested!

(Making another one of these because the few I commented on OP never reached out)

Hi friends! Looking for a study group for June LSAT. I know its coming up so preferably people who are also ready to double down and get stuff done! I have a very flexible schedule but like to study more so in afternoons and my weekends are free. Please let me know if you are interested!

I'm a tutor who started out scoring in the mid 150s and scored a 173 on the October 2021 LSAT.

I'm offering a free session on strategies to maximize the 35 minutes you have on LR sections. We will cover things like how to know when to skip and come back to a question later, how to leave time for a round 2 for skipped questions, which skipped questions to prioritize doing first, how to choose between 2 remaining answer choices, and question-type specific advice. We'll also look at how LR questions have changed over time.

Time: Feb 12, 2022 10:00 AM Eastern Time (US and Canada)

Hey y'all!

I've been lurking on this forum for a while and didn't see any group that's dedicated for folks in Asia. Since there's a 12-14 hours gap with the North American time zone, it's pretty challenging to make many groups a good fit. But I'm sure there are quite a few of you on this platform, so please reach out to me if you are interested.

A bit about myself, I'm currently based in China and got a 165+ during January and PTing in around 170. I want to shoot for 170 for June or beyond so ideally I'm looking for people with a similar score range and goal. I wish to have a group that could help each other with problems and learning from each others' study schedules and strategies. We could also have accountability and BR sessions. I have become increasingly nerdy and technical throughout my journey (thanks a lot, LSAT), so if you prefer to take some deep dives and discuss things like reasoning patterns and conditioning during rest days, reply or shoot me DMs!

This will be a very active and focused study group that strongly encourages accountability and comraderie **(Imessage or SnapChat only- sorry andriod users)**.

The requirement for this group is to study for a minimum of 3 times a week (or ideally more). The members of the group will be required to send photo proof each time they sit down to study. At the end of the week (Sunday), if someone has not sent at least 3 seperate photos proving that they have studied, then they will be eliminated from the group. No Exceptions.

The group will also be encouraged to plan and attend muted video chat study calls, talk about when they studied each day and how long, what they learned, and provide motivation and support to each other, and overall help each other through this grueling process.

Anyone who joins the group must be planning to take the Friday, Aug 12, 2022 test. As the test date gets closer, we will be doing practice test drills at least 2x a week or more using 7Sage. Again, members will be kicked out of the group if they are not participating in the practice test drills.

If a member of the group is sending photo study proof every week, but is not engaging in muted study video calls or proving to be active in the study chat, they will also be elimintated because this group's objective is to be ACTIVE/MOTIVATING/ and HELPFUL. Staying engaged by even sending a uplifting quick text will spark motivation in others.

Members will continue to be added to the chat, as i imagine many will be eliminated. If you are interested, please comment that you are interested

New Study Group

Hello everyone!

I recently just restarted studying for the LSAT and I am looking to form a study group that meets a few times a week, Monday-Thursday. I am quite open to different studying times, although my preference is for afternoon (2-5pm). Mornings work for me as well.

The purpose of this study group is to hold each other accountable. We would each use the time to study whatever we'd like as opposed to discussing questions and LSAT topics. If you are interested, please let me know!

Thanks,

Matthew

Hey everybody, I am looking for somebody to study with weekday mornings and/or on weekends. I work full time 9-5 so I study at least 3 times a week in the morning at 6am PST - 8:30am, and then on weekends in the morning as well. I have been studying for over a year on and off, and am stuck PT'ing in the mid to high 160s. I have been losing motivation lately so I figured studying with people would help. I mainly focus on RC and LR now, and I am hoping to take the LSAT in June if possible.

If anybody wants to study consistently or have a weekend session (I know weekday mornings can be tough) feel free to comment or DM me, would love to chat. Also if anybody is in a study group or knows a study group that would be a good fit for me then let me know as well. Thanks!

Study group strategies

asking anyone that has been a part of a study group for study group advice

couple of questions that immediately come to mind:

  • optimal range of study group members?
  • where should the members be in the study progress
  • basically, if you've been a part of a successful study group: what did you guys do?

    and, if you've been a part of an unsuccessful study group: why was in unsuccessful, what would you have done differently?

    tagging @"Scott Milam" because he reached out regarding study groups

    thank you!

    Are you sure?
