For sampling flaw type, when we say the sample is large enough, what is the amount in usual?

For instance, for 100 sample, it's enough.

What about 50? Is there a specific amount that we consider to be enough for the survey to be not biased?

I recently rescheduled my June 2024 LSAT to the August 2024 LSAT. While registering for the June exam, I purchased Score Preview and wondered what happens to it if you reschedule an exam. Do I have to repurchase Score Preview, or will it transfer to my new date? Thanks!

As we all know LGs are gone in August. My plan is to take one test prior to August and then the August exam as well (once with LGs, once without).

So my question is: is there a way to simulate a test without LGs so we can see our relative score with and without the section. I expect that my overall score will go up without the LG section but I wasn't sure if it was possible to see since the test has not been administered this way yet. Thanks in advance for the help!

Edit: I did more research and found the answer to my own question! I figured I would post it here in case anybody is wondering the same.

Answer: We've also updated our digital tester so that you can take PrepTests with two LR sections and no Logic Games section. To take a PrepTest in the new format, simply navigate to Practice->PrepTests in the main menu and click on a PrepTest. Once you're on the page for the PrepTest, click the drop-down menu to the right of the name of the PrepTest number and select “August 2024 3-section LSAT (LR, LR, RC).”

I'd like to see the notes and mark ups I made during a PT during BR. Particularly, I'd like to see the removed answer choices. Is there any way to enable this?

Hi Everyone,

Two weeks ago, I completed a diagnostic practice test. I went in blind, with little to none knowledge about the LSAT. Yet, I gave myself and extra 30 minutes for each section. Instead of 35 minutes, I had an hour and five minutes for each section. I scored a 148 and skipped the BR at the time, not knowing how important it was.

Minor digression here: (I spent my first two weeks of studying on the foundational section, and did about 3-4 drills. I realize now, that I probably wasn't getting enough practice in, and now aim to do more drills and timed and untimed sections as part of my weekly routine. I studied for about 30-35 hours over the course of the last two weeks. Right now, I'm at the grammar section of the foundations, about halfway through.) Okay, back to the test....

Just yesterday, I did another practice test. This time I gave myself the normal 35 minute window. I scored again a 148 and scored a 149 on the BR section. I didn't give myself enough time with the BR section, and learned my lesson.

I wanted to ask, is this a reasonable indication of progress in the last two weeks? I presume that by giving myself an extra 30 minutes to complete the first diagnostic test, that must of inflated my original number. What can I do next time to move forward, and have better and clearer indicators of progress?

This week I aim to continue the grammar section and logic section of the curriculum, on top of drilling, and doing one or two time and untimed sections. I also aim to review the recent exam over the course of the week, going over questions that I got wrong. Once I'm caught up reviewing the exam, I aim to take another test.

Why are my notes in the My Notes tab arranged alphabetically instead of in order of lesson? How do I fix this??

I was PTing for August before the new formats came out and now all of my old data is locked away in the old format section, including the questions I've already taken. Really unfortunate that I can't see which PT's ive already unsealed when looking at the new formats, need to constantly be switching back and forth. Can you guys please work out a fix to merge progress between new and old formats, specifically which questions we've already done? Annoying I'm paying for 7sage and wasting time on spreadsheets when you guys have all the data #help

how do I increase my speed for each section? I get almost every single question right on the questions that I am able to get on the PT and also on the blind review but I do them sooooo slow. I've take 4 practice tests thus far

Hey friends,

I’m signed up to take the June lsat and I’m pretty nervous. I’ve have hit my goal score a few times but I am not constantly hitting it yet so I’ve been working hard to improve my timing because that’s where my lower scores tend to come from. Either I get stuck on a logic game or a RC paragraph and will end up with a bad score in one of those sections. I am slowly improving in those areas but here is the kicker…. next week I will be gone for five days on a business trip. On this trip I will be very busy and won’t be able to dedicate the same amount of time that I have been to studying which is fine but I would like to use the limited time I have on this trip to study the most effectively. So, I’m looking for advice on helpful ways to keep my mind sharp and maintain or improve my current understanding. (To be clear, not going on this trip is not an option and I knew that well in advance and have planned accordingly). My plan currently is to print out a bunch of drills and prep test and keep them in my purse so that I can pull them out and work on them any time I have a 15, 20, or 30 minute break. Depending on each days schedule I am aiming to either wake up early and study for 1-2 hours or stay up late and study for 1-2 hours at least a couple of times. Any advice/strategies would be greatly appreciated! Good luck to those of you who are also signed up for the June lsat, may the odds be ever in our favor!

*Also if anyone has any tips for being quick and consistent in RC or LG I’d love to hear it. I’m way better at logic games which is why I’m taking the June test but every once in a while I run into a miscellaneous game that absolutely blows my brain lol.

Anyone in LA/OC studying for the LSAT and looking for a study group/buddy?

Message or comment if interested.

Can meet online. Thank you.

I've watched some of JY's video explanations of comparative rc passages, and in each one, he suggests reading the first passage, going through the questions and eliminating what doesn't fit, and then going to the second passage, then going back to the questions and selecting final answers. I see the intuition behind this strategy and have tried applying it, however I notice that I end up taking significantly longer on comparative passages than other reading comp passages, even when the content is more mild in terms of readability. So I was just wondering if other people find that this method doesn't work for them and whether they find more success reverting back to the traditional way of doing RC? I know everyone's different when it comes to rc, but I'm mainly wondering whether maybe this strategy is something more concrete like LR strategies, or if it truly is just preference. Thanks!

Hey, y'all! Long story short, I've taken the LSAT twice, getting a 140 and a 139 respectively. I last took it in February and decided that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing repeatedly and expecting different results and between full time school and three jobs, I just couldn't study. That being said, I graduate Saturday with my bachelors, start a full time 8-5 on Monday and am ready to get back into the swing.

What's the easiest way to get back into studying? Ideally, I'd like to shoot for the August/September LSAT. Thoughts?

General question for LR for fellow students. If you had to rank the difficulty of all the types of questions in LR, how would you rank them?

I took the LSAT last year in Oct and scored a 152. I have been studying on/off since (working full time and full undergrad class schedule), trying to master LGs to test in June this year. Hitting the 160s would be a DREAM. I consistently score -5 (usually less) on LR and RC is a hit or miss varying between -9 through -5. I've seen improvements recently on LR and RC during practice tests.

I hoped I could master LG to at least have -5, but I have not done so yet. I usually average -9 (sometimes more) on LG. During blind review, I can get most of the questions right with LGs. Still, I'm beyond frustrated at this point.

Should I test in June with LG or would it be more beneficial to test in perhaps September and apply in October after working more on LR and RC? Should I test in June anyway and re-rest in September?

I appreciate any advice I could get! Thank you!

I recently took a cold diagnostic (I took the LSAT cold in Summar of '23... big mistake) without the LG section using the new 4-section format for this August. Scored a 171 timed, 172 BR. Is it worth it to go through the syllabus, or should I just spend the whole summer grinding out PT's and BRing? I'm thinking my time might be better spent that way, since the syllabus will likely cover a lot of stuff I've already got a grasp on.

Hi, I’m new to 7sage and was wondering if there is a PDF with the group 1-4 keywords when we start talking about logic.

Hi everyone, I feel like I'm at an intersection in my LSAT studying journey and I need some advice!

So before we start here are some facts:

1- I only started studying for the LAST in the last 3 months.

2- English is my second language.

3- My undergrad was very technical & quantitative.

So early February I took a diagnostic test and scored 143. I tried to follow Khan Academy's curriculum, but it didn't feel structured enough for me, so I switched to 7Sage about two months ago. On average I'm putting around 8 hours a week into LSAT studying, and I'm planning to write the LSAT in August. My goal (although might be ambitious) is to score at least 170.

Two weeks into 7Sage and after I finished the foundation module, I took another PT and scored 149 & BR 151. Two weeks later, I was about 30% through the LR module, I took another PT and scored 156 and BR 158. This last weekend, I am a little over 60% through the LR module, I scored 153 and BR 162.

In RC, I'm facing the same issue like everyone else, TIME! I consistently find myself with only 1 min left for passage #4. However, for the three passages that I actually have enough time to read through. I'm scoring fairly well (I think). For example, my last PT I got 16 questions right and only 3 wrong, that's for the first three passages in the first RC section, and these are fairly consistent with the results of the other RC sections.

In LR, I find myself running out of time but because I know I have a terrible time management strategy of skipping harder questions so I end up spending 3+ mins on one question, and then not have time for the last 5 question in that section that I think I would have gotten, at least some of them right. Additionally, I found myself getting stagnant in my LR progress in the last few weeks.

My questions are:

1- Would it be wise to stop studying for LR for a bit and focus on RC? My reasoning is that I think there's a big room for improving my RC skills (considering I've never studied for it), and even a marginal improvement would boost my score a few points. Also, I'm hoping that a break from LR might help me get a fresh perspective when I return to it after two weeks.

2- Considering my tight timeline to write the LSAT, I was thinking of getting private tutoring in about a month from now to hopefully help me boost my score, do you think that's worth it? From the people who did get private tutors how was your experience?

3- Are my numbers good considering all the facts mentioned above? Is 170 an attainable goal for me? I know I need to improve my studying strategy and I need to put in more hours drilling and not just going through the curriculum. The question is, by how much do I need to increase the number of weekly studying hours in order to get to 170 by August!

If you made it this far, thank you and I hope my writing was comprehendible!

Hi! I literally just began studying and am thinking of buying the power score LSAT bibles to supplement my studying. I’m planning on taking the test after August, so should I only get the RC and LR bibles and not the LG bible? Is there any chance that logic games will be included in some capacity even if the official section is gone (and therefore it would make sense to get familiar with the material)?

Hello all,

I am wondering if anyone can point me in the right direction to how to sign up for the August LSAT test. I am also wondering how/when to apply for extra time on the August LSAT test.

Best,

Drew

How do I know if I should switch from V1 to V2? More specifically, how different is V2 and how do you know if it would be a better fit for your learning style?

Thanks :)

This passage talks about the baroque period and im unsure why the answer is guiding instead of compelling. There was no explanation available. It asks you to identify the meaning of the word directive. I feel like the passage implies that it is more compelling and forceful than the word guiding.

Anything helps.

I'm just wondering about which prep tests are used to create drills for logical reasoning. Are they taken from a couple of tests or are they scattered from all the prep tests available?
