Hi! Looking for a study buddy that is good at logic games and needs help with RC or LR. I am PTing in the mid-160s and want to be at least 170. (LG is what is keeping me away from my this lol) I am taking the October test and am in EST time. I was thinking we could take/review practice tests together. Please message me ^.^

I'm planning on taking the lsat early 2021 (applying fall 2021). I'm trying to increase my score by 20 points (shooting for high 160s). I'm looking for an accountability buddy and hopefully we can motivate each other as we complete the core curriculum =)

Looking for a study buddy to work with mostly Saturday and Sunday, Monday if you have it off too. I have been working on LSAT prep for 1 year now, I'm just coming out of 7Sage Core Curriculum and hoping to take the test November (depending on where I'm at on my PTs), or January. My last PT, six months ago, was in the mid-130s. I'm aiming at 160s.

I'm currently working on taking untimed practice sections for LR, I'm doing Fool Proof for LG, and doing untimed RC. To be honest, I'm hoping to work with someone to hold me accountable for BR because doing it alone has been difficult. If anyone is in a similar situation or would just like to work with me, message me, lets get to know each other and see if we can partner up for this journey!

Hi everyone,

I'm wondering what people's thoughts are as to guessing on questions you don't get to/are uncertain of on PTs.

I listened to a 7sage podcast and J.Y says to always leave these blank, so that you can remove the element of luck and better gauge where you're at skill-wise.

I have been implementing this practice and I think it may be having a negative psychological effect on me. My PT scores have been ranging from 153-157 while taking this approach and consistently seeing my results be lower than what I think they could be is rather discouraging.

For perspective I tend to not get to about 20-25 questions per test.

Should I just try to get over this psychological hurdle, or should I just start guessing on those questions and boost my confidence?

Thanks in advance!

Hello everyone,

My name is Meek! My diagnostic was a 151, but took another PT two weeks ago and hit a 148 lol.

I'm looking for a study group of people currently on the cc spectrum who aren't doing pt & br just yet :) We'll discuss questions and/or bounce ideas from cc material (e.g. lessons, Q-sets, etc.) and move forward from there!

I'm currently at the 40% mark and hoping to finish the cc as soon as possible. I can't wait to start on pts & br, and crack 160 by October!! Will be taking the Nov. LSAT and a couple more after that, haha.

If you're down, please comment an email you're comfortable with and we'll move forward from there!

oh, and just an fyi - anyone, anywhere on cc is welcome! Study groups often lean toward gen. accountability anyways :)

Let's goo.

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a few people who would like to study in a group setting. My main objective for studying in a group is to help each other process answer choices and question stems. Sometimes I get too caught up in my head and overthink things, so this study group would be beneficial to others who do the same. I'm comfortable with setting up study sessions via Skype, Zoom, or Facetime. I personally study every day to prepare for the November sitting so, if you're interested, please reply or message me. I'm looking to start Saturday/Sunday, on a weekly basis. If you're serious about studying also, then you're the person/people I need in my group. Hope to hear from you guys.

I'm located in EST btw.

Looking for 2-3 people to review 1 LR section per week on Saturday (beginning from PT 63). Meetings will be held over Zoom or Skype, and will cover only questions we each found difficult (this way, we should be able to finish within 1 hour)

Update: Hi all, I unfortunately will not be able to meet for this group anymore, but feel free to contact any of those who commented and arrange meetings.

I am looking for a couple of people who are struggling with RC.. for the October test.. currently scoring in the 150's -160's.. I am wanting to do one passage per day timed and then do a blind review as a group.. for example one test = 4 days worth of passages.. If interested please message me and I will get a group going.. I have friends who did this and they went from -10/-12 in RC to -2/-3.

Thanks,

Madison

Hey folks,

I'm scheduled for 8/30 at 4:20 pm...Looking for someone to bounce prep tests against for review. I just broke into the 160s after a 141 diagnostic in May (after COVID for 2 weeks and a full time job) so I've seen progress, but it's not consistent and I'm suffering in the same 2 areas: LR (flaw/parallel) and RC. LG is pretty consistent with -0~2 on regular and usually 0 on BR So I can help with that if someone needs feedback. I've taken the last 2 weeks off and the next 2 weeks so I'm aiming for that finish line.

Looking for someone who wants to keep it up on a daily basis with me and also wants an accountability buddy. I'm not delusional enough to believe I'll break 170s in the next 2 weeks, but a few points here and there and some consistency in scoring would be awesome. Don't get me wrong...I'm studying as if a 180 is possible, so expect that kind of commitment.

Who's hyped enough to finishing up these next 2 weeks?! Message me and get ready for most of your day to be filled with problem sets and PTs~~

I have created a groupme for daily blind review sessions.. we will be doing RC blind review every morning at 730 pst / 1030 est. We will be doing 1 rc passage per morning. At night we will do Lr 630 pst 930est.. we will break the lr blind reviews into 2 sessions questions 1-15 and 16-25/26 so that the sessions run about an hour tops each..allowing more time for the harder lr questions... if anyone would like to join the link is posted below.. hope to see all of you!

Hey guys,

My name is Deja and I’m looking for a study buddy for the November LSAT. My first PT I took was a 138 but I’m determined to increase my score to at least 160 by October (if possible). Looking for 2-3 people who are motivated to increase their score as well. My time zone is est. please feel free to drop your email or pm your number so we can get started thanks.

Hi friends,

My name is Tyler. I've found that studying for the LSAT alone has become a bit grueling, to say the least. I've been using 7sage for the past 3 weeks and am ~20% completed with the core curriculum. Scored a 140 on my cold PT, but i'm determined to hit 160 by early October. I'm hoping to put together a small study group of 3-5 people that are at a similar stage in their journey. If you're in need of some support, drop your email address below.

I'll be sending out an email early this week to coordinate schedules/meeting times. I'm thinking we can hold a zoom meeting once or twice a week to talk through challenges, learnings, experiences, etc. More detailed outlines to come...I look forward to meeting all of you and conquering this exam together!

As an FYI, I'm on PST just in case that's a dealbreaker for any of you.

Hi 7Sagers -

There have been a couple posts/discussions about forming study groups. To take a concrete step in that direction, I'm writing this post to inform the community that I will be holding blind review sessions on the following dates, for the following PT's, over google meets:

Tuesday 8/11 - PT 79

Saturday 8/15 - PT 80

Tuesday 8/18 - PT 88

Saturday 8/22 - PT 89

I'm taking the August flex - am averaging around 170 right now but really trying to get it consistently into the 172-174 range. Strongest section right now is LR, with really variable performance on RC and LG.

During my last swing at the LSAT 2 years ago I found group blind review tremendously helpful, as verbalizing rationale for correct/incorrect answer choices helped reinforce the right logical processes, while attempting to defend the wrong answers often allowed me to catch and self-correct my logical errors, or otherwise have them elucidated by other members.

The process for each session is one person will read out their selected answers to each question, any deviations among other members will be recorded, and each question with a deviation will be discussed. We'll also discuss any questions without deviations but that any one of the group members flagged with uncertainty.

Sessions will be at 3PM PDT. If you're interested, please send me a DM with your email address so I can add you to the calendar invite.

To keep the groups small enough to remain productive, I'll post here when any one of the sessions gets 3 sign-ups, at which point it will be closed. Accordingly, please only sign-up if you have a definite intention of joining.

Many thanks,

Hari

Hi I'd like to meet with someone scoring around same as me (about 170-171) to study together. My schedule is pretty limited I have 7-8am EDT, sometimes 10-11am and some nights around 730pm.

The areas I'm working on are RC, flaw questions, NA, and testing with confidence.

Please DM if interested :)

Hello all!

I am very interested in having a study buddy or buddies for the November LSAT. If interested, please feel free to message me!

A little about my LSAT journey, strengths, and weaknesses:

Started studying back in 2017. Started with a 130, ended up only scoring highest 146 on the actual LSAT in college. Most of this was due to not giving myself enough time to actually understand everything and just rushing through the process. Fast forward to over a year later and I started studying again. I decided to do TFA (so teaching is currently my full time job). I just took the July flex and got a 156!!!!! Super excited for this score, but I want to get into the 160s (preferably 162+) due to wanting $$$ for schools.

I am entering my 3rd year teaching, so my job constraints may play a role on how much time I can give to the LSAT everyday, but

since I am off Saturdays (duh!) I typically take those days to study all day. I would want a partner who is the some boat as myself working full time, or someone who is understanding of this.

Strengths/weaknesses:

I am excellent in games. Timed I usually vary from -1 to -5 (trying to currently FP LG 1-35 atm)

I am so-so on LR and RC. LR has gotten better (can do typically -7 timed). RC is for sure a toss-up. I am very well versed in government, criminal justice, social issues, and economics. So that is when I typically shine in RC. Science is for sure not my strong suit, and typically my biggest weakness in all of the LSAT.

Trying to tighten everything up and would love someone on a similar journey as myself! Like I said above, please just message if you are interested!

FYI: I am in Central timezone, just as a heads up if you are in another timezone!

Hi! My name is Jordyn.

I am looking for people who would be interested in forming a study group. I am planning on taking the November test, I am thinking we could schedule to meet at least once a week and help each other learn and help motivate each other so we can all get the best score possible!

Right now I am averaging 160s, I am aiming for 170-172!

We can meet via zoom or facetime, whatever works! :smile:

Hey all,

I'm trying to get together a group for studying via zoom/FaceTime and/or group chat for quick feedback on studying and questions.

I was scoring low 160s but finally broke 166 and 171. Wanted to study with people that are motivated and want to get their score as high as possible.

Comment or shoot me a message and let's see if we can work something out!

Hi all!

I'm retaking for my third (and hopefully final!) time and I'm working on getting my score into the 160+ range. I've really struggled with holding myself accountable to studying in the past and honestly would just like a group of people to work/vent with to help through this crazy test. I do most of my studying in the evening and on the weekends and wanted to see if there's any interest in getting together some type of group to text/chat/check-in over the next few months. I'm not sure what the best platform would be but definitely open to suggestions or any other thoughts!
