Hi! I'd like to make a small 3 person BR group to meet weekly and go over a test together. A friend of mine in the 170's said she did a 3 person BR group where once a week they sat for about 3-4 hours and noted for which questions they had different answers. Afterwards they addressed each question one by one. I'd like to do a BR group in this way and I'm open to other good approaches too!

I'm scoring about 158 - low 160's, I'd like to have 1 member in the mid 160's and 1 member in the 170's or high 160's so we can see the different ways we see questions.

Let's do first come first served in who replies. Thanks!!!

Hello there!

I am looking for an online study/BR partner who is willing to go through a similar pacing of taking the PTs and to BR together.

.

.

Here’s a little bit about me:

  • Finished the CC
  • Read the Loophole
  • Currently at late 40s (although I did go through about 10-15 of the more recent ones scattered here and there)
  • Currently taking 1 PT per week
  • Scoring around mid-high160
  • Writing the March exam
  • Living in South Korea
  • .

    .

    What I’m looking for in my study partner:

  • Finished the CC (preferably who read the Loophole as well!)
  • Taking a similar range/amount of PTs per week
  • Living in a similar time zone, or willing to work around the time difference for 1-2 BR calls per week
  • Hoping to focus mostly on LR and RC
  • If you are interested, please comment below or PM me. Thanks!

    Hello, everyone: I am experienced with the LSAT. I just need someone to guide through some tricky situations I find myself in in each of the sections. I am seeking a tutor who is willing to assist in helping me reach my target score range. Thx!

    I want to give a shout out to @hhhakobian for being my study buddy. He has really elevated my critical thinking and logical reasoning skills. Even though he is a lot more advanced than I, he still takes time for our weekly session. I recently saw a big score jump on my last PT and I know I wouldn't be where I am without his guidance and advice. I have also made the switch to studying for shorter periods of time 5 or 6 days a week, versus longer periods of time just a few days a week. I think that has also helped.

    @hhhakobian good luck on the Nov. LSAT! You're a rockstar and are going to kill the test, I know it.

    Hello! I am looking for a reliable study partner who wants to improve RC via forming the habit of active reading.

    JY emphasizes the importance of active reading in CC, and there are excellent resources about the specifics of active reading (https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/active-reading/ and https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/6354).

    I am planning to take the March/April exam. My current RC score is around -8 to -5, and my target is -3/-2. Ideally I hope we can "meet" once or twice a week on Skype. I have a very flexible schedule -- either mornings or evenings works fine for me. Please let me know if you are interested!

    Hey 7Sagers, I'm leading BR calls for PT 88 (September 2019 LSAT).

    There will be 16 sessions total.

    All sessions will be from 2 - 5pm ET. Please see detailed schedule below.

    What happens in these sessions?

    For LR, I'll ask you to state which questions were circled for BR. We'll work through the questions the group nominates. If we run out of those questions, I'll select questions to cover. This BR call will be audio only.

    For RC, we'll read the passage together, paragraph by paragraph. I'll ask you to make low resolution summaries of each paragraph. We'll use those low res summaries to build higher resolution summaries. Then, we'll answer the questions together. This BR call will be audio only.

    For LG, we'll read through the game setup, determine the appropriate game board, translate the rules, then tackle each question. This BR call will have a visual component.

    How should I prepare?

    Have a clean, unmarked copy of the PT ready in front of you so we can read and answer the questions together. Please wear headphones and try to be in a quiet place.

    Will these be recorded?

    Yes, they will. If you cannot make it, you will be able to find the recordings of these sessions for up to 1 month after the session. Look under "Past Sessions" below. You do have to be enrolled in a full 7Sage course to access the recordings.

    I’m retaking the LSAT in November and looking for a few people who would be interested in studying together. I’m located in Orange County, but I’m also fine meeting virtually. My problem sections are LR, and I’d love to be able to BR with others to see how we conceptualize these questions. Let me know if interested!

    Hi y'all,

    My current study partner and I are looking for a third person to join us for full-length PTs and BR sessions in-person.

    We meet by the library at Bryant park Saturday mornings, take our PT, self-review, take a break and then BR as a group. Sessions are intense and last pretty much all day long (going from 10am-7/8pm or so). We're studying for the October & November exams and looking for another study partner committed to reaching a mastery-level understanding of this test, ideally someone already scoring in the165+ range under timed/BR conditions.

    We review pretty thoroughly with the goal of extracting as many little lessons as we can from the questions.

    Feel free to hmu to discuss further, if interested. Thanks! :)

    I'm a full time LSAT student from Delaware, who recently finished the core curriculum. Today I took my first PT and scored a149. I am definitely very far from my goal, but whole-heartedly believe that through consistent practice I will get to my goal of a 165. I intend on taking the January 2020 LSAT. I am looking for a study buddy who is willing to blind review with me. I have access to all the PrepTests under the premium package (PT 36-58).Please reach out if you think this would be good fit for you. Thanks in advance!

    Study buddy tool hasn't worked out too well for me. I'm in the South OC area (Mission Viejo) and would like to get a group (or find a buddy) together before the October test. I worked with a tutor and it was really beneficial to talk through difficult questions. I'm open to working on LR & RC, but I can help others with games if needed. Please comment or message me if you're interested.

    After that September test, I will be retaking lol. Looking for a study partner to go over PTs and bounce ideas from 7Sage, bibles, trainer/loophole etc. I’ve been mostly self studying so I think it’s time to flesh out some solutions. I could do in person, ny/nj area or online!

    DM if interested.

    Hey 7sage community!!

    Looking for people around the Boston area who are in the beginning of studying for their LSAT (I just started 2 weeks ago). Thinking about taking the January exam and wanted to get a group together to help one another study, stay focused, and motivate each other. Maybe even getting together once a week for study sessions! Hope to hear from those out there in the same boat!
