Hey 7Sagers, I'm leading BR calls for PT 67 Reading Comprehension.

There will be four sessions total.

All sessions will be from 10pm - 12am ET / 7pm - 9pm PT. Please see detailed schedule below.

What happens in these sessions?

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.

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.

I'm seeking someone who I can study with and also who I can maybe help on the LSAT. I've scored from 164-174 on practice tests and I might be able to help someone who doesn't have access to professional tutoring/LSAT classes. I learn by explaining, so I think this would be helpful for me and for the other person. I started at a 158 and I've learned a lot to help me raise my score, I'd love to help someone else raise their score too.

I'd prefer a female study buddy because I'm a girl, but this isn't 100% necessary. I have trouble focusing in groups, so we would study 1-on-1 at a local coffee shop or library or something.

I want to start a study group for people who will be studying full time this summer. We'll use the group to discuss, motivate and keep tabs on each other.

7Sage is allowing us to use their webinar capabilities (thank you 7Sage!!), the details of which are posted below! We welcome every person at every stage of preparation!

Here's what you do (please watch the post Core-Curriculum webinar before joining: https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/post-core-curriculum-study-strategies/):

First, take the scheduled practice exam (62) under timed conditions before the session. We will focus on the Logical Reasoning sections only.

Next, blind review on your own by breaking down the stimulus, picking the answer choice you feel is correct, and write or type out your reasoning for each correct choice and 4 incorrect answer choices (which will help you remember your train of thought during the study session). Please do not check your answers after your blind review on your own.

Then, input the most difficult questions into the excel spreadsheet before the session. This will let us know what we need to focus on, so we can use our time more efficiently:

Finally, we will review the test as a group on its scheduled date via GoToMeeting webinar. The link and all other info is below.

Looking for at most four people to study with who will make a commitment to meet at least once or twice a week. I think the best way (open to suggestions) we would do it would be to go through practice test questions together, possibly blind review? We can do this by utilizing discord, a free software.

My goal is to hit 160+, but I do not mind if your goal is lower or higher. What I really care about is having a team that shows up and makes a serious commitment because I think there is value in discussing problems with one another, seeing different perspectives, and keeping each other accountable.

Please PM me if interested.

Hi everyone. I am curious if people in the NJ or NYC area would like to form a study group? I live in North/Central NJ but am interning in NYC, so either option would work. Please message me privately if you'd like to talk about forming a group. Thanks so much. Happy studying!

Looking for one or more persons (but no more than four) who would be interested in a blind review group for parts or whole PrepTests.

  • Weekends (Saturdays and Sundays) I can host -- 23rd Street bewteen 2nd and 3rd Avenue

  • Mondays to Friday (preferably afternoons) - we can look for a public space in Long Island City or Astoria

    • My ideal test date is July or September 2019. I will be applying October or November 2019 for the entering class of 2020.

    Thanks!

    Study Buddy (NYC/Online)

    I'm looking for a study buddy for accountability and BR. Currently, I'm finishing up the CC and plan on moving on to the PT's.

    My diagnostic score was a 156, and my target is 173; the plan is to take take the LSAT sometime in the fall or winter of 2019/2020. I'm pretty much studying full-time, so my study schedule is pretty flexible. I've been studying for a while now and am almost ready to start focusing almost exclusively on PT's.

    I've found that going through the reasoning of a LG or a LR passage and orally making the inferences with another person is quite helpful -- the same might be for you. Just the fact that you aren't stuck in your thoughts is crucial.

    Let me if you are interested, and we can see if we work well together.
