Hey Everyone! I know that a lot of us wanted to join a study group for the summer LSAT tests. This is the separate thread where you can put down your email so that we can coordinate! Please send your email if you wanted to join!

Hey 7Sagers, I'm leading BR calls for PT 89 (November 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?

No, they will not.

Hi everyone! I am a student in Chicago, and I am looking for people to form a study group in Chicago. I have never formed a study group before, but I think it would be very beneficial. We can figure out the details once a few people have joined. I took the LSAT in November after spending a few months working through prep books. I scored in the 150's, so I definitely want to retake. I have been using 7sage for about a month now. I am looking at taking the June or July LSAT.

Hello! Anyone in the DC metro area interested in meeting in person to take full-timed tests and do blind reviews? I'm looking for someone to bounce off ideas, share thought processes, and LG strategies. I will hold you accountable and keep you motivated to stay focused. I hope you'll do the same for me!

A little about me - I'm a patent foreign filing specialist at a DC law firm. I've been living in DC for over four years and aiming to get into law school in the fall of 2021. I took the LSAT in March 2019 - scored 158. I started studying again this past December. I'm determined to get at least a 10-point increase but it's an uphill climb.

Please shoot me a personal message if interested!

Hey everyone!

I just took my first prep test (June 2007) and lets just say I wasn't super happy with my results. I am hoping to take the June 8th LSAT and was looking for someone or a group to work towards that goal with?! :)

Hi all,

I don't have a set test date yet but I'm looking to start a group to go over PT's, ask questions and just generally pool our knowledge. I've been a part of one before and it's a great way to structure studying and hold each other accountable. Let me know if you're interested!

Good Evening,

I am currently looking for an online study partner or someone who lives in Minnesota. I am currently signed up to take the March LSAT this year.

I have gone through the Core Curriculum and I'm currently PTing.

I would be interested in taking PTs and BRing together and focusing intensely on LR and RC. I work fulltime but im willing to make adjustments for anyone willing to meet consistently especially on weekends you can message me or comment below!

I’m looking for a blind review partner who is scoring in the mid 160+ to blind review together maybe 3+ times a week over phone or Skype. I’m aiming for the March or April administration and am hoping we can help each other spend a few hours a week helping each other grow. I have evenings and weekends available, with some availability during weekday mornings and afternoons.

Please comment or DM.

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!

    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!
