Hello aspiring lawyers!

I am taking the August LSAT and was wondering if anyone would be interested in studying and cracking the LSAT (LR&RC) in preparation for the upcoming August LSAT. Please let me know!

Hi guys, Does anyone else feel like they are improving but it is not translating to a better LSAT score??? Like I feel I'm getting to more questions more efficiently and I have a better grip on the test but yet I'm not improving. I'm feeling a bit discouraged still stuck in the 140's. Wanted to know if anyone else has experienced this or feels the same way.-Eric

I just started studying for the LSAT, and will take it in September. My diagnostic test was a 173, and my second prep test was 168. What's the best way for me to improve my score and my consistency? Does it make sense to go through the entire 7Sage curriculum, or should I skip the basics and just focus on my areas of weakness?

Hi there! I have just started 7sage and am a little confused what my study schedule should look like. I have just completed my first prep test - but should I have watched videos before that/I don't see drills or practices listed on my customized study schedule?

Hello,

I am a bit lost on how frequent I should be taking PTs. I took a diagnostic test a while back, but haven't taken one since as I am still working on the LR lessons. I have heard a lot of mixed advice on how often to take PTs, so I guess I am just wondering how often you all take PTs. Should I take a PT 2-3 times a week once I am finished with my LR lessons? Or should I begin taking them now? I also plan to take the Aug. test.

I’m trying to gauge whether or not my experience is normal.

How much time does everyone spend on reading the passage? JUST reading it, not answering the questions.

Every time I review a test or drill, 7sage tells me I’m spending about 2-minutes per passage while also telling me that my target time should be closer to 7-10 minutes. I’m not getting every question correctly so that’s not even a flex. I seem to be struggling to slow down but maybe this is just growing pains.

I am taking October test, so I want to form a study group that studies LR and RC.

I am usually available on Mondays, Fridays, Saturdays, and Sundays.

Please send me a message so we could discuss further!

Since this upcoming June test will be the last test that includes the Logic Games are we predicting the games will be relatively easy or relatively challenging? For example PT 80 Logic Games were extremely hard for me, I couldn't even finish the section. Whereas the LG for the June 2007 PT were relatively easy? What are your thoughts?

Hello,

The previous prep tests that included LG had PDF versions of them. I usually like to print them out and take them that way so that I can mark it up. I don't see PDF options for the new prep tests. I'm retaking the test in August and was wondering if 7Sage will provide PDF versions of the new PTs.

Thanks,

I just began the 7Sage curriculum and want to take a diagnostic test to identify my starting point. I plan on taking the test post August 2024. Is there a test that I should take or do I just pick one? I figure I should start with the older ones now and save the most recent tests for later?

I really don’t understand where this rule ” For conditionals, A and B negates to A → /B ” came from or how it would be applicable to the actual exam. This comes from the Negation skill builder in the Logic of Intersecting Sets module. It was never stated beforehand in neither the negating conditional statements or elsewhere, at least to my knowledge. I understand it intuitively as you’re saying that rather than both A and B being true simultaneously, you’re positing that /B is a necessary condition of A and thus can’t exist together. However, we previously learned about negation of the conjunction “and” in conditional relationships as being A and B → C negated to /C → /A or /B as specified by De Morgan’s law. I guess I’m just struggling to see, how to tell the difference or when/how to use this new rule in context with a question on the LSAT. Is the rule just referring to when you have both premises A and B as part of the argument a way to negate it, is by using that rule. Like I don't see how just A and B can exist on their own in question. I feel like there must be either A and B -> C or C -> A and B included when encountering this in a question. Greatly appreciate any comments or help someone could add!

Taking the June 2024 LSAT and I've put up some pretty good scores on each section. I've hit -1 on LG, -2 on RC, and -5 on LR. The only problem is that I've never come remotely close to doing all of that on the same test (for example, when I got a -5 on LR, I got my worst ever score on RC; the very next practice test THE NEXT DAY, I got a -2 on RC and put up my worst ever LR score). I'm done with practice tests before test day, but does anyone have any tips on what I can do to brush up and prevent splitting so dramatically?

I am taking the June 2023 LSAT in-person and wanted to confirm the following questions:

Am I allowed to bring 5 pieces of scratch paper to use during the exam?

Am I permitted to bring my own writing utensils, and are there any requirements/specifications that I should note about them?

Thank you!!!

Diagnostic Question

I just finished the Core Curriculum. I want to take my first diagnostic test. How can I find the diagnostic test or how can I go about it? Thanks!

Hello All!

I am hoping to take the test in August 2024 & October 2024 before submitting my apps in November, and I just switched my syllabus to the newer August format…but I am alarmed that that is not enough content to study with. Am I wrong? Any tips or advice for studying? Anyone know if there is something I am missing? How are y’all prepping?

Thank you :)

Over the course of using 7Sage, I sometimes get headaches and eye fatigue from staring at the bright white layout for long periods of time. Today I got that same eye fatigue and headache and decided to see if 7Sage has a nightmode, and they do! Great! I turned it on and to my disappointment it's just inverted colors and... it's really bad.

First, everything is inverted, and it just looks bad. The color scheme is now elementary school Halloween party, and with profile pictures (and all pictures) being inverted, as another user with my complaint said https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/34156 , gives off paranormal horror film vibes. Scary! Also the results page for drills and prep tests is a complete eyesore. The entire site turns from pretty to ugly :(

The other user I linked to mentioned that there are some problems in the lesson and explanation videos because of the inversion, like when pictures are brought up or when colors are used and referenced. I don't know how that could be fixed other than rerecording each lesson in nightmode (lol,) but out of the hours of videos on the site, those specific issues are so few and far between it's not really an issue to me.

There are also some visual problems not entirely related to aesthetics. The most glaring is the highlight function on drills and prep tests. I like to use all three highlighter colors on reading comprehension, but nightmode's inversion makes the yellow and orange practically indistinguishable. The current nightmode also puts more strain on the eyes. The inversion of everything makes the color scheme visually hard on the eyeballs, and some things are just crazy bright, like the bright orange at the bottom of the screen. Some buttons are harder to read and find, especially when it's a dark orange or dark gray on black. The pitch black background (as opposed to a grayscale design) contributes to the visual fatigue as well. White text on the black background creates a high contrast making everything slightly harder to read.

Currently, nightmode does the exact opposite of what it's supposed to do! I, and I assume many other users, would really enjoy a more visually comfortable studying experience! Please make an update!

Thanx for reading :)))

Unlikely — but is anyone in the Tokyo area studying for one of the upcoming international tests and interested in forming a semi-regular study group?

I live in Tokyo proper, but I’m sure anyone in Kanagawa, Saitama and Chiba could get into the metro area quite easily.

If you’re not in the Tokyo area but in Japan, please still reach out! I’m open to online studying as well if no one is around locally.

My plan is to take the October test.
