Anyone in Seoul?

Hi, I am looking for someone to study with in Seoul.

I am scoring around mid-high 160 (from 165 to 169), sort of in plateau there and want to break above it.

I live in Mangwon (near Hongdae, Hapjeong, Sinchon).

I work full time and mostly study early in the morning during the week days but could be available for study in the evening. Also am available most of the weekends. Looking for someone to do PTs and BR together on a similar pace.

Planning to sit for the June exam (sort of bombed the Jan one) and aiming for 173-4.

Let me know if anyone's around.

Hey guys! I am looking for a couple of individuals who are scoring between 155 and 165 to set aside a time and study together 2-3 hours a day during this time. We can discuss interesting questions or we can just simply do our own thing but keep each other accountable through zoom or google hangout.

A little bit about me:

I've been working full-time and studying part-time for about a year now. I started at 144 and now hitting the upper 150's to low 160's plateau and need to get that extra push for my exam in September.

Anyone interested, please leave a comment especially if you are studying in the PST zone!

Thank you.

Trying to study full time before the July exam. Especially with the quarantine I feel that it is easy to fall off track and I am calling for an accountability buddy.

Hoping my accountability buddy and I can just send each other check in/out messages at the below times

Check in same time every day: share our study goals for the day

Take designated breaks at the same times

"Log off" for the day - check out: share what we accomplished toady

This would be just to hold each other accountable - not for the purposes of tutoring...but of coarse I can help if I can be of any use.

I live in Calgary, Alberta - MDT so of coarse it will be more helpful if we have the same time zones or time zones kind of close to one another at the least

Hi 7sagers!

I'm just starting out this whole process and I'm working on CC right now and while this whole quarantine thing is horrible, it has given me a lot of time to dedicate to studying! I scored a 139 on my diagnostic (I'm not proud but it is what is) and I'm looking to maximize and go all the way!!! I'm planning on taking the August exam so that gives me roughly 5/6 months to study. I love how positive and supportive this platform is and I'm looking for some accountability buddies to help keep me on track and I would do the same! Let's knock out this test together.

Some extra facts about my study plan is I'm a full time student but now I have a whole lot of free time so if anyone wants to drop some study tips/hacks, that would be greatly appreciated! Thanks guys!!

I'm studying for the June - July tests. I'm around 165. I’m pretty soled on LR. On games a bit less. On RC just got developed my routine, whether it pays off I will know in a month or so. I don’t have experience with a study buddy yet. Except for the only one discussion on a few LR questions with a friend of mine. I think to share strategies and discuss particular LR questions could be healthful

If anyone else is on a waitlist for their ~dream~ school and isn't ready to give up on the 2020 cycle I want to start a study group for the April 25 LSAT. Willing to do online/in-person study group. Scored in the low 160s and hoping to reach 167. If you're interested let me know! Or if there are already similar study groups like this I would like to join one.

If you are looking to study with me for the lsat lmk. I can study on the Rutgers campus. If you attend Rutgers and are pre-law and need to study for the lsat or if you are simply around the New Brunswick/piscataway area and need to study for the lsat and are looking for a study buddy lmk.

Anyone is the Charlotte/Matthews area? I’m part of an online study group but would love to meet some people in person if there’s anyone else out there studying for a July/July test. Doesn’t have to be super regular, even once a month or every other week would be nice just to touch base.

Let me know!

June LSAT Study Group

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?! :)

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!

So a bit of background, I’m heading towards my third take most likely in August. I PT in the mid to high 150s with a few 160-162’s sprinkled in. Official takes however have been a 154 and now a 152 so I’m definitely experiencing a disconnect somewhere so I’m really trying to buckle down and study for an extended amount of time. I’m looking to make a small BR group where we take the same pt and BR it together on skype or FaceTime, with between 3-6 people definitely no more than 6 though (however if a ton of people respond we could split into mini groups) with different score ranges. So holla at ya girl if you also are over this test and are in the ‘all gas no brakes’ mindset

I'm in DC looking for study partners! I work part time, so my afternoons (after 12:30pm) on weekdays are generally open, plus weekends. I've found I get a lot more out of studying when I'm talking it over with someone else. PM me if you're interested and we can make plans to get together! I'm fresh out of the CC, scoring in the 150's. Planning on April/June LSAT. Aiming for 170!
