What's up with people that use If-then statement with a qualifier like "could". If X, then Y must follow. It's necessary. What's the point/impact of "could" follow. It annoys me that the necessary condition has an escape. Example:
If not enough new homes are built in 2016, then home prices could rise.

Recommend replacing RC Categories (currently based on Passage Subject) with Question Type (e.g., Main Point/Purpose, Inference, Strengthen, Weaken, Parallel Reasoning, etc.). This change to LSAT Analytics would provide better targeted and "actionable" feedback for RC - consistent with what's already in place for LR
February 1997 is the only exam I can't find cheap access to online. It's one of the few exams where I haven't seen any of the games, so I'd like to at least try taking the games section timed. Has anyone been able to find a cheap copy? Amazon.com's price for it is nuts!
Since everything is released now from LSAC, I believe this question is fair game. Is there any way someone could direct me to a video explanation of the LG section from December 2015 exam? I think that would be PT 77. I usually score -2 or better in LG which carries my score, but the last two games in that section annihilated me in December. Game 4 was just difficult, but Game 3 was a "pattern game" (as it has been described on online threads).
Preferably a JY explanation because JY is my LSAT lord and savior, amen. But, if any video is online anywhere with a walk-through, I would love to know about it. Just worried a miscellaneous game like that may come up again, and I can't afford to blow the LG section twice in a row if I plan to matriculate in the fall.
PS - saw manhattan prep's diagram and that didn't help me much. Even with the questions, diagram, and answers in front of my face I couldn't figure out the strategy. Would prefer to see a video of someone else doing it.
Thanks in advance, 7Sagers.
Hello,
I have been having this problem for some months now. I can't finish 4 games. I finish three games and won't have more than 3 minutes on my fourth game. I don't go in sequence. I usually tackle the sequencing ones or the ones that seem easier first.
I have done all the games until PT39. I've done many of them multiple times as well. But I don't seem to be able to break this wall. I usually finish two games within 12 minutes.
I noticed that grouping questions drain a lot of my time. Should I just practise this type of questions more?
Please, I very appreciate your input,
When do I know I should rely on intuition before attempting to diagram everything?
When do I know this formulaic A->B method 100% works?
I don't know how to be selective about which approach to take with complete confidence without wasting precious minutes!
PrepTest 22 - Section 4 - Question 13 illustrates my point.
If I just straight up went with my intuition, I would've chosen D with a good feeling because it looks pretty much like what the whole passage is saying while the rest of the answer choices look pretty off, but because I attempted to solve this question like a math problem, I couldn't FIND THE EXACT ANSWER I was looking for.
I wonder how other students feel about this. Advice much needed and appreciated.
Hey!! Does anyone have a word document or PDF form of each type of logical reasoning questions with like 20-50 question types of it. I'm trying to make a packet like this to drill and it's taking me forever! Someone have a kind soul..please haha
Hey Everyone,
Hope your studies are going well! I just have a quick question, and would like to read about your experiences regarding the matter. I have been studying for the LSAT since mid-July (~6 months). When I first started, I could push out 6 hours pretty easily.
As of late, I have only been able to study for 1-3 hours/day. Not sure why, maybe it's my new, temporary schedule. All I know is, by around 8 P.M., I'm tired. Not tired as in "bored." But, slightly exhausted - think tipsy...slightly buzzed, what have you.
What do you guys and gals do in such a situation? Power through until your "set end time" (10 P.M for me)? Or, stop and rest for the rest of the night.
To give you an idea of what I mean by "tired," I often find myself reading a sentence two or three times before I can say "Ah, I get it!" Under optimal circumstances, I could glaze over the same sentence and understand it immediately.

BR GROUP NOTES:
Hello, all!
It's been awhile since I've posted on here (being in law school and all). I was wondering if anyone who previously used 7Sage--and is currently in law school--can share their law school experience. This may also give current 7Sage students an idea of what to expect when they get into law school. I'll start with my own experience.
First semester was hell--as it should be. My legal research class was graded--in other schools it it a pass/fail class--which added to my stress. The paranoia of the curve ate at me and I started to analyze people based on how prepared they were for class, or how much they actually knew vs. bsing the professor when cold called (because most classes only have finals, so it's hard to compare yourself with other students, at least until the first semester grades are released). There are plenty of other things I can discuss but I just want to use this to break the ice. Below I will also have some advice for those that want to go to law school or those about to head into their first semester.
It is extremely important to focus only on yourself when you're in law school. Do not worry about other people, or how smart you think someone is. In law school it's all about pacing yourself and focusing on yourself. The people who usually do the best in law school tend to only focus on themselves, not what others are doing. Make friends early, form a study group within the first month, and meet at least once a week--not during school hours. If you don't already know how to outline, look up outlines from previous students at the school you will be attending. Some outlines at my law school are tailored to a specific professor and go well with how the class is structured/taught, while other outlines use generic formatting. Start outlining before school starts--your school probably has first week assignments posted a couple of weeks before school begins. Supplements are awesome, especially the E&Es (Examples and Explanations) although other supplements are great as well. Your professor may recommend some supplements based on what previous students have told them--you should really pay attention to those supplements.
If I have any more advice between my classes I will edit this posting. I hope others can contribute or share what they learned about law school.
P.S. first semester is hell, but it's to weed out those who do not truly want to be there, or who can't compete enough to be there. Once the first semester/year is over it feels like home--in my case anyway.

Hey, could anyone please help me understand how answer choice B does not weaken the argument? if there were more people with more than 6 months treatment responding then the absolute number of people representing 36 percent will become more than the absolute number of people representing 20 percent. If this increase in people with more than 6 months treatment happens wouldn't that give an alternative explanation of the discrepancy in percentages?

NOTE: I front-loaded the PT 70 - 75 because I believe that people need to get eyes on 70s sooner rather than later. We’ll still have PT 76 and 77 available to PT in May. Trust me when I say it is worth it to do these tests twice. And if you don’t feel comfortable hitting the 70s yet, don’t worry. We’re going to repeat this cycle of PT 70-75 at the end of February just in case.

Hi:
When the stimulus is conditional oriented, I do well on this question type. However, when there are no conditional statements, I am totally lost.
Can someone please give me assistance???

Hi all,
Need some advice. I began my prep the middle of last month and am planning to take the June '16 LSAT and possibly taking again in September if need be (which, from what I am gathering about the nature of this exam, will probably be the case). I am curious as to what a realistic school schedule is for studying. I only enrolled in two classes for the spring semester at my university. One class is going to be super easy and the other shouldn't be extremely taxing either. I am still a bit concerned as to whether it is a good idea to take any classes at all during LSAT prep. Classes started this week. Thus far, I have been putting in about seven hours per week day and about four hours on either a Saturday or Sunday (depending on which day I want to lay around and be a bum).
I want to rationalize with myself and say two classes is fine, but my gut is telling me otherwise. I do not work, nor do I need to at the moment. Is this a realistic schedule or am I taking on too much?
Thanks for hearing me out. I am new to 7Sage and strongly considering buying the Ultimate.

Fine Print (NOTE: you all want to be lawyers; reading fine print is what lawyers do, so READ IT!)
BR GROUP NOTES:
I have pretty much everything ready to go and to apply to law schools I want, but ofcourse haven't taken my lsat yet til Feb 6. Do I apply to law schools now or do I have to wait til I get my Lsat score to apply and submit everything? If so for which term would the law school be accepting me for?
Thanks,
Ellie
This is relatively minor but for transcripts, if your semester hours are relatively low (98) should you write an addendum? I took a lot of AP classes in HS to graduate early and I don't know if that would be reflected on my application.
Hey guys! If you're taking the February LSAT and your account is inconveniently set to expire a few days before the test date, just email me (dillon@7sage.com) and I'll extend your account (up to 14 days) for free through the February test.
For those of you who are expiring after, good luck on the LSAT! We here at 7Sage are rooting for you.
