Hello my fellow 7Sagers, I'm studying for the June LSAT, and am in desperate need of a study buddy. I'd love to keep each other accountable (more or less according to the June BR group schedule graciously made by @DumbHollywoodActor) and work through concepts/teach other stuff/BR together. I think Skype would be a great forum for us to do this (unless we somehow freakishly live near each other). Please, please reach out to me if you think this is something you'd like to do! Thanks!

Hey everyone, I wanted to see if anyone could share some insight on their strategy for Feb. I took the test in Dec. but cancelled the score. Anyway, I was averaging around 164/168BR through pt 69, then dipped to 160/164BR through Pts 70-76. I believe I have a stronghold over LR.. I feel like I just haven't fully adjusted to the nuances with the 70+ tests. That's not to say they're harder per se, but one can't deny a subtle shift in LR stimuli and harder RC passages --- sans the most recent administration ;) . I average around -5.4 for LR, -7.4 for games... and -9.7 for RC on PTs 70-76. Where do you guys think I can gain the biggest improvement in time for the feb exam? Should I focus on games? I know I can do better with RC, but I feel like I can make quicker gains in the other sections... thoughts? Should I start PTing asap or in Jan?

I have unlimited data but not tethering and I don't like listening at 1x speed

LSAT Party time, that is!

Hi! I'm looking for someone to Blind Review Sections/entire exams with. I have found this to be VERY helpful for me in the past and for other people I have worked together with. We would take an LR section/entire exam together, and then each person would go over every other question, articulating why every wrong answer is wrong and why every right one is right. Let me know if you're interested! Send me a message.

Hi @"Dillon A. Wright"

I had purchased the Game pack when it was available but all of those tests (below 36) do not show up in my LG question bank. It would be really convenient if they did. Is that just an oversight on my account, or not a feature available?

We have a completely different workshop scheduled for tomorrow with a completely different time and a completely different tutor.

Be on the lookout for the link for this conversation tomorrow at 12:30 pm ET!

Only 25 spots are available! First come, first served!

Saturday, Dec. 12th at 1PM ET: Necessary Assumption LR Questions with @"Quick Silver"

• We are NOT going to use Skype for these sessions.

Thanks to this forum, all the comments I've seen are very supportive and helpful

163

LR:-2,-3

LG:-0

RC: -13

What are the recommendations for those who have made significant improvements on RC?

Note:

When will the video explanations for October's LGs be posted? Thanks!

I noticed a few of our users having the same issue with the video player, so I'm posting this quick fix in hopes that it helps all of you out!

If you're unable to see the videos or are getting constant html5 issues, the first thing you want to try is clearing your cache and cookies. This varies from browser to browser (and operating systems), so you'll have to look up how to do it on your browser.

If you're still having issues after that, go into your settings (http://classic.7sage.com/account/) and make sure "Use Flash Player" is checked off, then click save.

This should fix your problem, but please note you won't have any of the fancy playback features anymore! (Meaning you won't be able to make J.Y. talk like a chipmunk anymore, which is pretty funny.)

Hey everyone,

Long story short, the plan was to sit the October test. I ended up moving it to December, from which I withdrew. The new plan is to take the June test, and apply for the 2017 cycle.

My question is, is there any benefit to taking the June test over the October test? From what I've gathered, by applying around June, you end up competing with less people, for more seats. I've also read that there isn't much of a difference.

In any case, I don't intend on registering for the LSAT until I am absolutely certain that I am ready.

On a totally unrelated note, do you guys take notes while watching the videos in the curriculum? Just curious. That is currently what I am doing and I am starting to realize that it is slowing me down drastically - can't tell if it's helping or not...

Early on in my decision to take the LSAT, I took the June 2007 PT. I did this to see what the test was like and how I would score in a non-timed situation. Now I have started using 7Sage to prepare for the June 2016 LSAT. For one of the lessons this week, I am supposed to take the June 2007 PT, which I foolishly wasted early on in my preparation. My question is, should I take PT 34 in place of the June 2007 PT? Or should I skip the lesson entirely?

Thanks!

Would anyone be willing to read over my personal statement and provide some feedback? I can read over yours if you would like and provide feedback. I've made a couple of drafts and am at somewhat of a loss on what to change, if anything. I find a stranger's opinion can be helpful in these situations.

Really liked 7sage. I wanted to hear from others if its worth investing in the course.

Hey Everyone!

I'm just curious, what are you guys and gals reading on your free time? I'm looking to boost my reading speed, which I believe can be done by being a tad more well read. I know it has been suggested that we read The Economist, Scientific American, or The New Yorker. I'll likely subscribe to one of these magazines - either The New Yorker or The Economist, since Scientific American is the most expensive out of the three.

I absolutely despise economics and the test writers clearly don't share my dislike of the discipline...so, what's the most sensible thing to do? Subscribe to The Economist! Please feel free to bash me for this - I appreciate the criticism :).

Will someone explain to me why all the answers are wrong and why B is correct? I know it somehow links the premise and the conclusion, it's just so over my head I cannot figure it out.

Thanks in advance!!!

Well, my application cycle has come to an end. I just got accepted to Penn today, where I will be attending next year. 7sage has helped me tremendously and I'm confident that I would not have this opportunity if I had not chosen to sign up for 7sage, complete the curriculum, participate in the BR calls, and remain active on the forums. I cannot emphasize enough how wonderful the 7sage community is. People are supportive and everyone wants the best for each other. For those of you who are starting with a low diagnostic score or are plateauing well below your target score, you need not give up hope. I scored a 147 on my diagnostic, but after nearly a year of hard work, I improved tremendously and did well enough on the exam to become a competitive applicant for many of the top schools. My advice to all 7sagers is to utilize all of the resources available to you. Join the BR calls, stay active on the forums, and learn to love the LSAT. If you are having difficulty with a question or want a critique of your studying schedule, reach out to veteran 7sagers. I have spoken at length with many of the most active 7sagers and I can assure you that they will be more than happy to assist you in any possible way. Remember, we are all going through this together. I hope everyone has an amazing application cycle and I hope to see some of you at Penn next year.

Febbers! We’re less than 2 months away! Come to Group BR tonight!

Note:

Hey All,

Since yesterday, I haven't been able to see the answers posted on logic games explanations videos.

Usually I'll go to the specific game through the 7sage website and then just scroll down to confirm my answers. However, since yesterday, I haven't been able to see the answers and have had to literally watch the video and fast forward it to find out.

I'm using Firefox browser on a Mac and have tried Safari as well, but its the same issue.

Any advice?

Thanks!

Hey folks!

I wanted to let everyone know I just spoke with J.Y. for about an hour (5:30amish to 6:30am my time, OUCH) -- he is deeply committed to helping everyone in this process, so much so he endured listening to me blather for that long.

In the near future my firm will start positing law school admissions content for 7Sage. This may be of acute value for wait listed applicants this cycle and certainly those looking to apply in futures cycles. So look for us, after you crush the Feb. LSAT :)

June BR Group Schedule: http://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/6171/june-test-takers-group-br-schedule-updated

Note: these tests (PTs 29-35) are part of the 7Sage curriculum and, for all intents and purposes, are retakes. That being said, I think it’s a great way to build up our LSAT fluency by taking an actual PT without having to use the modern tests until we absolutely have to. Another way of thinking about this is we are essentially going to do BR groups of the 7Sage curriculum, something I know a lot of students have requested. Some people might disagree with me, but I don’t think it wouldn't be a waste of time or effort for someone who is still working through the curriculum to do this PT, BR it and then meet up for the call.

HOPE TO SEE YOU THERE!

Be sure to announce in the comments which group(s) you’re planning on attending.

Note:

I did not understand the explanation in the video.

I diagrammed the following based on my understanding.

ES and PIL ---> OS

PIL ---> OS/e

Therefore, /E and PIL

I chose answer choice A thinking the only part that is missing from the premise to the conclusion is ES---> OS.
