I eliminated B and D and chose C. I am really stumped on the reasoning for this. I picked C because I thought the loss of teeth and traveling at the back of the herd could be correlated with: groups they live in-->diets--->size and shapes of face.

Can someone help me understand this reasoning? Please!!?

When JY is explaining not ( group 4 Logical operator) he does not apply the not to the come home idea. i understand its function as a logical operator but why doesn't not affix itself to /CH as in the description of Group 3.

if not is the L.O. and u have to negate the second idea, but it seems to me the the properties of not should apply to the ( 1st idea) come home idea!

Obijuan, please explain!

Hi All,

I think I'm good with the Logic Games theory and I'm about to start the Logic Games bundle.

For those who have already done it, approximately how long did it take you to get through it all, including the fool proof method?

Thank you for your time.

When people on 7Sage discuss "drilling" I am confused as to what they are referring to.

Is "drilling" doing Blind Reviews and re-writing the same Logic Game over and over?

Please, please correct me if I am wrong.

Thanks.

BLAH.

I took prep test #62 today and had to stop when I couldn't complete the Logic Games section. I just couldn't move past it. That has never ever ever happened to me before in the entire time I have been practicing for the LSAT.

I don't know what to do at this point. I've been studying for an entire year. I took the December LSAT and received a 155. I decided to take the October LSAT of this year, so I've been studying consistently since December.

I started PTing at the end of May and I started with 1 a week. Since then, I've taken 10 exams and my average is 165 with a BR average in the 170s.

I took a mini vacation for a week and a half and managed my first 170 at the end of July.

Since then, I've felt.......... burnt out. I tried to take a few breaks last week (after scoring a disappointing 161), but today I had a panic attack and couldn't even finish the exam.

I don't know what to do at this point. I took some advice and stopped drilling LR sections, as that was probably contributing a lot to my burn out, but if my mark keeps plummeting I don't know if it's in my best interest to write in October?

I just feel lost.

Is there printed material that goes along with the course that I can print all at once, or should I just print the pages as I go when I get to them?

Someone please explain.

After reading quite a few posts on here, it seems to be the consensus that postponing a test, and nailing it the first time, is better than taking it once and then retaking it later. Exactly how bad is it to retake, though? I originally signed up for October, but I just barely finished the Core curriculum yesterday. I don't know that I'll reach my full potential by then, but I wouldn't be surprised if I did, considering how much I study. It just seems a lot riskier to let everything ride on one shot and only take December. Am I wrong to think that? Wouldn't it make sense to take both in case one throws some sort of curveball and falls way below what I would normally score? Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to default to the 7sage video player?

Hey everyone,

My diagnostic was 149 and I recently finished the 7sage core curriculum. I took three prep tests since then, each scoring in the high 150s and Blind Reviewing at the 170s. My goal is to score above 165 for the december test. What should I do differently and how could I improve my actual score to 165+?

I learn best by explaining to others. Is their anyway that a feed can be created that automatically adds the newest comments on videos/the coarse to a list that provides the link to the problem and comment.

Say you are working through the LAWGIC chapter and you comment that you don't understand contrapositive on slide 34/55. Your comment would automatically move to the #1 spot on a list with a link to the slide, that way you could get an answer within minutes instead of 3 months later.

Just thought it could help people like me really concrete the ideas and also get new studiers a quicker response.

Hey Gang,

I know there was some discussion about Answer Explanations. JY and team are working hard on them, but if you need to look at them now, Graeme Blake has just published his explanations.

Hey guys! Just wanted to ask what you think the best resources for Logical Reasoning are out there. I would especially like to work on parallel reasoning/ flaw, and logic heavy questions (they tend to slow me down when I diagram them). I have read the LR Bible, seen the 7Sage videos, and done PTs. Thank you!

Okay. I'd like to say that I've been lsat prepping for about a year / year and a half or so, however, during this time I've been working full time hours, (multiple part time jobs) raising my daughter, finishing my bachelors degree and combating never ending family issues and unnecessary stresses. To be perfectly clear, I've been doing all the above (i.e. raising daughter, working fulltime ect.. for at least the past ten years) Yeah, I just turned 30 too....

What I am getting at is this, I feel so burnt out, depressed and stressed that I have little to no time to "properly" study and raise my scores in time for the October Test date. I've already pushed off the June Test to October. I plan on enrolling Fall 2016 and really stress about pushing the test back any further.

Time restraints are only getting worse. My primary work is starting up along with this upcoming fall semester ( I work for a local University ) and as a Liberal Arts major who studied criminology, sociology and psychology, my kids 4th grade algebra is a nightmare for me; go figure.

I want to say all the (lack there of) improvement is due to the stress and time restraints, but I've dealt with this for so long. I manged to graduate with Latin Honors in a difficult curriculum all while doing the same juggling act; however, this TEST is killing me.

As the title suggests, this is likely just a rant. But, are there any others out there who are in this boat?

At this point, I'm not sure how to study anymore. I've completed the Course/ albeit hastily in some areas; and I've been PT'ing as often as physically possible - which in my case turns out to be once a week! Usually a Sunday, then I sporadically BR throughout the week whenever I can.

Understandably, there isn't a real clear cut and dry answer to woes and restraints. However, there has got to be someone out there in the program who understands this and has something valuable to add to this.

Hi all!

I just started taking timed practice tests at the end of July and have noticed that I need to improve my speed in all sections. In logic games, I'm usually able to complete 3 games and then am able to complete 1 or 2 questions on the last game before time runs out. In logical reasoning, I'm usually able to complete 23/25 questions and then have 1 minute or so to split between the last two questions. In reading comp, most of the time I can complete the whole section in time, but sometimes I run out of time at about 25/27 questions.

Any suggestions? I plan on taking 2-3 practice tests per week until the Oct test (I know... it's approaching so quickly, I'm terrified) but does anyone have anything concrete I can do to make sure my pace picks up before the test?

Does it matter if I skip all over the syllabus? Should I be doing the curriculum in order?

So, I've been taking LSAT courses and studying everyday for hours on end in preparation for my October exam. I took my 2nd diagnostic exam and did worse than my 1st exam. I figured because more than half of the LR questions were type 2 and 3 (strengthen/weaken) and I'm still having difficulty grasping the concept. I understand what it's asking, but am finding it so hard to get to the correct answer choice. Can someone please help me? In dire need, thank you!

[Admin note: edited thread title for clarity of question type. Originally "type 2 and 3 questions".]

In recent PTs (60 onwards), I've been averaging -1 or -2 per LG section and I usually have 1-4 extra minutes after completing all of the games. With that extra time, I try and re-do questions that I think I may have gotten wrong. However, I'm just guessing and I'm trying to figure out a better way of being able to pinpoint exactly where I've made mistakes. Does anyone have advice on this? I would hate to make some mistakes I could've easily fixed, but never identified on test day.

Hey everyone,

I'm trying to write for the December LSAT while working full-time. I currently am working in "big-law" and the hours are crazy at times. I'm seeking advice on how to juggle job, girlfriend, and life basically... I know essentially its up to me on how to handle all this but I would greatly appreciate to hear from people who happen to be dealing with a busy schedule and are trying to shot for the 165-170 range.

Best of luck!

I have not taken an official LSAT in a test center yet so I am confused how it works.

When the section you are working on is done then what happens? How quickly do you move on to the net question? Also Do you need to guess during the section you are on or can I fill in all C's before I start the next section? I am also confused do some people look back at previous sections if they finish a section early? What is preventing you from doing this? Last how many people are in each test room?

what question type appears the most frequently on the LR section of the lsat?

Is everyone using the 180 watch? There is also another option? What is best to use?

Hey All,

I was just wondering what the average discrepancy between your actual scores vs. your BR scores are after taking a PT. I know I average about a 10pt difference between actual and BR scores. Is that too high of a discrepancy? What should the difference be between scores by the time Test Day comes around? And for those of you who have closed the gap, how have you lessened the gap?
