hi everyone! During a study plan workshop, ZeSean discussed pairing practice drills with the core cirriculum. Is there an existing guide to match my progress on the core cirriculum to the practice drills and/or the live classes, other than simply guaging by the titles and difficulty levels?

Hello all!
Another personal statement swap post here (I know there have been several recently). I am working through drafts of two different personal statement topics. After speaking with my pre-law dean and a friend who gave the exact opposite opinion of my pre-law dean, I am stumped (though I know my dean is obviously more qualified and weigh his opinion much heavier). Anyway, just looking to do an old-fashioned swap. You read mine and I'll read yours.
Cheers!
Hi everyone,
I am trying to register for the LSAT but it is requiring me to provide a fax number. But I dont have a fax... Has anyone run into this problem? How were you able to register?
Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!

I'm planning to apply to a merit scholarship ED program, but I'm torn between BU and GW.
Here's the deal: I'm currently planning to pursue some type of criminal or national security law (either at the DA, US Attorney, or other federal law enforcement agency like FBI or NSA.) I'm drawn to GW, just because the location will afford me to be closer to lots of national agencies and make more connections. Additionally, they have a national security law specialty, which is rare at most other schools.
However, I've heard some negative feedback about GW and am also slightly deterred by the huge class size. Additionally, I'm worried about making a decision based solely on location because there's a chance I won't end up pursuing this type of law.
As for BU, I've read that they attract some really renowned professors and scholars, which is very appealing. Also, the class size is much smaller and it is still located in a large city, which will afford me some connections.
I really want to apply to one of the merit scholarship ED programs and I do feel like I can confidently choose one of these schools, especially with some additional insight for all of you. Thoughts?

Hi, Study Buddies!
I hope all is going great for everyone and studying hasn’t been too grueling on you.
I wanted to reach out to all of you on here again for two reasons:
Firstly, our study group has the amazing opportunity to meet with 7Sage’s @"Scott Milam"tomorrow (Saturday, April 9, 2022) for an hour seminar from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM PST. If you haven’t already checked out our GroupMe (chatroom just for our study group), the information for the event and the zoom invite link is posted in there. If you don’t have access to the GroupMe; we have another study session tonight from 7:30 PM to 8:30 PM PST via zoom, we’d love to have you drop in and study with us and you can get the GroupMe link from me then, or send me a message and I’d be happy to get you connected to our GroupMe and the awesome people that make up our study group.
Secondly, studying for this test is a long and often difficult process; it’s very easy to feel discouraged, frustrated, and unmotivated— I struggle with these things myself. I wanted to let you know that you are not alone, and I wanted to encourage you to keep going, to keep trying. As the great Dory from Finding Nemo once said, “When life gets you down, you know what you gotta do? Just keep swimming.”
Recap:
Study Group Zoom Meeting with Scott tomorrow, Saturday, April 9, 2022 from 9:30 AM to 10:30 AM PST— look in the GroupMe for the zoom link or reach out if you don’t have the GroupMe.
You got this!

4/8/2022 Update. (This is a closed study group. This post is to those tagged)
I am having trouble determining how/if it is using my drill results in my recommended drills. It says on the "drill by tag" page that it looks at PT results. However after a drill you can toggle "dont use in priority calculations." Does it or does it not use drill results when determining needs for practice? The total questions answered right/wrong are from PTs only, or drills as well?
Thanks!

Hey,
Planning on taking the October flex. I am PTing around 146-150 with goals of hitting around a 160 by October. If anybody would like to be my study buddy or even be a part of a study group. Please let me know!
Hey, is there anyone near Denver and the surrounding areas who want to get together for studying for the November test?
Does anyone know if i can sign up for and take the U.S. November LSAT from another country?
I am looking for a possible group or single study buddy in the Houston Area within the 610 loop .
I am open to an online group as well if that would help .
Hi all! Just a quick question here. I know your face must be visible for the entire LSAT-Flex. Does your tabletop need to be visible as well, or only shown during room scan? My webcam has a clear view of my face, but not of my hands or desktop while I write on scratch paper. I wasn't able to find anything about this, but just wanted to check.
I currently use an external monitor as the only view of my screen - my laptop remains closed while I am using it and cannot be used as a split-screen. This passed the ProctorU software sweep. Just wanted to make sure - is this okay?
Thanks everyone! Good luck October takers :)

Any 7sagers attending tonight's admissions panel with Upenn, Michigan, and University of Chicago?
Hey I plan on taking the LSAT in September. If anyone is interested in setting up a study group inbox me. I live in Brooklyn, but work in the city. We can meet in person Thursdays or Sundays or we can Skype or video chat any day during the evening.
Can someone help me to check if my analysis is right?
Premise:
Two group of fish: one traditionally raised with dull routine and the experimental hatcheries raised in stimulating routine
The experimental hatcheries was bolder to explore new environment and try new food.
Conclusion:
Experimental Fish are more likely to survive.
Choice
Some fish raised in traditional hatcheries die because they are too timid in their foraging for food.
Firstly, this must be true because the whole point of the augment was the difference between traditional and the experimental fish. We have to argue that the traditional group doesn't have that unique quality of the experimental fish.
Secondly, if we apply the negation test: none fish raised in traditional are too timed foraging for food, the argument falls apart.
Thank youuuuu!

Greetings Fellow Sagers.
Wanted to share this anyone who might find it helpful.
Any tips to improve reading comp??
LR I'm averaging 40/50, LG 20/25, but my Reading Comp is around 12/25 which is really lowering my overall score.
Hey All,
I'm in the PT and drill phase of my LSAT journey and find myself needing guidance on personal specifics. Would any seasoned LSAT warriors themselves (or those who know of such fabled warriors) PM me and help out?
Any and all help is appreciated and I will do what I can in return.
Good luck all, and all the best to every journey! :)
Anyone looking for a study partner who is willing to work via video or even in person?
Anybody want to form a study group here in los angeles/the valley? couldnt find a post, so decided to make one
So I've nailed logic games, I've implemented a new strategy for LR where I pay more attention to structure and ive been doing better so far, but my RC is totally screwed up. A) a lot of the time I don't get to every question, and B) most of my mistakes are from Inference and Authors Perspective questions.
I make the right answer choices during BR but I just can't seem to time myself correctly.
Should I spend more time on timed RC which would lead to less time on LR and LG review? I don't plan on doing BR for RC , I feel like LR skills translate into skills needed for RC questions. But my timing is way off. I took PT 63 and got a 167 but I missed like 5-8 questions in total, and rushed RC making stupid mistakes just to get to the next question. I feel like I can't retain enough info to be able to make inferences ...I go back and skim portions of the passage to affirm my inferences. Should I rely more on skimming and going back during questions or nailing it after the first pass?
