Maybe the studying is finally working!! I finally reached 154 after getting in the high 140s on my past PTS. Hoping to make it to 160 by November LSAT. Please send good energy!!

Hi all,

I started studying for the LSAT about eight months ago, and I started seriously studying/taking PTs in the last four months or so. I have consistently faced the issue of not being confident enough whenever I am on timed sessions. I see myself changing my answers from correct to wrong answers on LR. I am current in the low 160s 161-164 range, and every time I BR, all the correct answers are so obvious. My BR is in the 170s. But whenever, it is under time, either I don't see the correct answers or I just get so fixated on the wrong answer. I also have had problems with except questions. I would think to myself that it is an except question, and then by the time I get to the last answer choice I just forget that I was dealing with the except question. Any advice on mechanisms/strategies on how to improve confidence/preventing careless answers? I have been trying to do some strategies like, pointing at ACs as I read through. My RC could also be better, like around -4. -5 right now. I get to -2 or 0 when I BR for RC. For RC, my main issue is with rushing the last paragraph when I get freaked out.

I was hoping to take the October LSAT, but it seems like I might have to withdraw and shoot for November. Any advice for whether or not I should sit for October? This is mainly also because I have taken it twice already and once canceled/ one in the 160s. Thank you.

How many level 5 questions are expected? How many level 1s? What is the general distribution?

Do the tougher questions appear at the later part of the test?

Hey all! I have been studying for a few months now and take my test here in October. I am SO close to a breakthrough but my issue is… on so many LR questions I am stuck between 2 answer choices. I choose one thinking it right and then it’s the other one that I thought about. I keep making the same mistake but I can’t seem to shake it. I feel like I review well and I know what I’m doing wrong but obviously I don’t if I keep choosing the wrong answer out of the 2 I think. Any tips or recommendations??

I hit my goal score of 168 with a BR score of 174. I have only taken 5 PTs so far that have only trended upwards, previous PT score was a 160 with a BR score of 166. I understand I still have many weeks to keep studying but I do have midterms on the two weeks leading up. My anxiety for whatever reason is higher than ever, I don't have a real average of PT scores because I have only taken 5 PT that have only had upward trends after each. I do believe my ceiling is higher than what I scored but I want to make sure im consistent. My plan is to drill LR and RC for the first half of each week and take a PT at the end of each week, is this a good plan? Any tips for handling anxiety especially with my case? I really hope it was not a fluke.

This mainly pertains to people who have used 7sage prior to the removal of logic games, but pls merge analytics. I don't even mean like the specific practice test scores, but like the questions taken, pt's done, etc. I feel should be easy enough to do. This is especially important when doing 3 section tests of older 1-94 pts. For example, I did a 3 section of pt 81 since it was one of the few 80s tests I haven't done prior to LG removal, but was reworked into being experimental sections on tests I've already done, but the analytics were added to the old analytics despite me doing the "current version". It's just a pain to have to use the obsolete drill function since I don't know what questions I've used in the new drill function as well as analytics technically being less accurate.

An easy willingness to tell funny stories or jokes about oneself is the surest mark of supreme self-confidence. This willingness, often not acquired until late in life, is even more revealing than is good-natured acquiescence in having others poke fun at one.

Which one of the following inferences is most supported by the statements above?

A A person who lacks self-confidence will enjoy neither telling nor hearing funny stories about himself or herself.

B People with high self-confidence do not tell funny stories or jokes about others.

C Highly self-confident people tell funny stories and jokes in order to let their audience know that they are self-

confident.

D Most people would rather tell a funny story or a joke than listen to one being told.

E Telling funny stories or jokes about people in their presence is a way of expressing one's respect for them.

I can understand how A is correct in that it completes the pre-phrase "a person who exhibits confidence will enjoy telling and hearing funny stories about themselves". However, I got rid of A because I assumed that they are not discussing the correct group that was discussed in the stimulus. It's a pattern and common wrong answer choice l've seen in other question type, where they are discussing the wrong group in the answer choices to trap you. For example, if the stimulus discusses only the group in a survey who love cheese. Then the wrong answer choice will try to trick the test taker and talk about those who do not love cheese. And that is where you are supposed to catch that and say " the stimulus only talks about the group who do love cheese not those who do not, therefore not needed for the argument. I don't understand why that doesn't apply here? If I were to do a fact check test and use the stimulus to support the answer, nowhere does it discuss a person who lacks self confidence or what makes a person not confident" . It only talks about what makes a person confident, not what doesn't make them confident. So would it be fair when approaching future questions to assume that if they are talking about a different group it could still be correct?

Hello everyone! (: I just finished Foundations -> Argument module and I want to quiz/test myself on what I learned. Is there a quiz or a tool on 7Sage that focuses on quizzing for the argument module?

As an international student from Ghana, I am having difficulties concentrating for more than an hour when taking PTs. I don't know how to resolve this, as I am registered to write the October LSAT and I don't feel prepared enough. If anyone here can help me with some useful tips on how to study better and maybe help me with study groups.

My time zone is GMT +00, I am available at any time and ready to put in the work to get my desired score please. Help a sister out ;(

Hey 7Sagers,

J.Y. and 7Sage's content creation team have recently developed a new way of engaging with reading comprehension passages and questions. You may already have noticed that many RC passages now feature new tags like 'Spot' for Spotlight-style passages and 'Prob' for Problem-Analysis-style passages.

To help you learn more about the passage styles and how you can improve your approach to RC by applying relevant strategies to passages of different styles, lead content creator Kevin Lin has taught a two-part live class to introduce you to the new method!

The recording of Part 1 is available here.

The recording of Part 2 is available here.

Hi I recently got diagnosed with ADHD and was wondering if any fellow 7sagers with ADHD would like to make a group chat to help support each other with study tips as well as motivation. If you are interested here is the link feel free to join https://groupme.com/join_group/103411020/XGK5DR7Y

Hi, I just started studying with 7sage.

I tried to use keyboard shortcuts (spacebar & k) to pause the video, but it doesn't work.

Searching Google got me nowhere. Plz help me, it is more uncomfortable than i thought to pause it using the mouse every time lol

FYI, I use Chrome, and I tried all 3 kinds of video players on settings but still not working. (also tried update to current version & restart)

I think it's just me tho ... seems like no one on the reddit & discussion experienced the same.

Is there anything else that i can try?

Thank you

Hi friends! I need some advice on how to improve my RC section. While I feel confident in LR, I am scoring much lower on RC, missing about 10 or 12 questions per RC section. I am scoring about 158/159 overall, and all I want is to score a 160.

My issue with RC is when I try to do low-res summaries, I run out of time. But when I try to read quicker, I forget passage details. When it comes to questions I missed, I always review and understand why I missed the question, but still end up missing similar questions on my next PT. Another issue is that I have a hard time getting through all four passages.

I feel stuck and not sure where to go from here. Even some kind words would be appreciated! Oh, and by the way, I am registered for the October LSAT. Am I doomed?

I was following the version 1 curriculum until I got to the introduction to logic section which focuses on logic but is that for the logic games? Some people said to switch to the v2 curriculum but I do not know where to start with the version 2 curriculum. Can anyone help me or should I just start from the beginning and proceed?

Looking for study buddies who are willing to out in the work and hold themselves accountable.

Any advice besides reading more to improve in the reading comprehension section ? Structure, timing or types of questions?

So far I have been doing Bottom line but I have not seen much improvement.

I am having trouble with the lawgic. My take away was:

WD m→ feature art

/comfortable→/WD

comfortable→SI

My thoughts for chaining...

contrapose comfortable→SI to become /SI→/comfortable

Therefore the chain...

/SI→/comfortable→/WD

So if /WD then... /WD m→/feature art

Can someone please explain why this is incorrect?

I appreciate the help!

Does anyone know a good estimate of how long the writing sample takes to process? I took the September LSAT, and had a lot of unexpected things happen in the time following the test, hindering me from completing the writing sample. I am wondering how long it takes for the writing sample to process. Do you think if I take it tomorrow, Wednesday 9/18, it will process before the score release date for September?

Hi everyone! I have a discord LSAT study group with 25 members and it's a very new group with mainly Loophole students. But we're starting to drill more via 7Sage and have scheduled a few group drilling sessions this week. We'd love to welcome anyone who would like to join our Wrong Answer Review session tomorrow and a 10 Questions or Die session on Saturday!

The Discord invite is https://discord.gg/EsVqSsRU. Or you can just add my Discord user (cutiminti). Hope to see some of you there :)

Hi all!

I am currently scoring in the high 150s - low 160s with a pretty solid understanding of the curriculum.

What I find really helpful in learning is by teaching others. This forces me to verbalize my thought process and consider questions that I may not have thought of. With that said, I would like to offer my explanations/insights to anyone that have specific questions or just want a new set of eyes in general.

If you are interested, please message me 1 or 2 specific questions you need help on. We can then try to arrange some time to jump on Discord where I will attempt to explain it to you and you are free to ask any questions.

Note - this is by no means any form of tutoring, but I think we can both benefit from it. If there's anything I can't answer, we can try to figure it out together.

Does anyone know if and how to view your LSAT Argumentative Writing submission after it has been completed?

Looking for anyone that may have an old copy or extra copy of the Loophole that they are willing to sell. Will pay for shipping costs etc! Would really like to get my hands on this if possible so let me know!

Thanks in advance
