I was under the impression. When I upgraded to the Ultimate Plus package that I would be getting the question bank with video explanations.... And at least the correct answer for each question. Was anybody else under that impression? Is there a reason 7Sage hasn't posted the answers for all of those questions as well as video explanations?

Hey all,

I just got accepted to Georgetown today. I feel so relieved that I am T14 secure. I feel forever indebted to 7sage because there is no way that my score would have improved so much without JY and Jonathan's curriculum, and the BR groups on Skype. 7sage has an amazing community, which has motivated me to challenge myself to work harder and harder. Trust me, if I can do it, all of you can do it. I scored a disappointing 147 on my diagnostic and scored a 167 on the October exam after 10 months of hard work. I am still going to retake in December because I was scoring in the 170s and I would like to receive $$$ from the T14. I hope that there are many more acceptances to come. For the people on 7sage who aren't scoring really high, don't give up hope. You, too, can break through your "glass ceiling" and reach your LSAT goals. I plateaued in the 160-163 range for nearly two months. It can be overcome. All it takes is motivation and a will to succeed. I hope other 7sagers have great results as well this application cycle as a result of all of their hard work.

I study all the time and have been for a while. I was first exposed to the LSAT 2 years ago and score in the 120s, but then the highest score I've ever gotten was a 139. Am I retarded or something? I really, really try, but I keep getting the same crappy score. I was a great student in college and did a lot of wonderful things but I feel like a failure when it comes to the LSAT and I'm tired of studying for it over and over again...like damn..when will this nightmare be over?

I learn best when teaching (like most people,) and have also spent enough time with the LSAT that I feel comfortable teaching others. I'm strongest in LR and LG, but open to working together on RC as well.

I have studied Manhattan LSAT (for LR,) LSAT Trainer, Powerscore (for LG,) Testmasters, and obviously 7sage so I am open to using a variety of methods for the different sections.

Available via skype (@lsathopeful) - if I'm online, I'm usually pretty much available.

Good luck with your studying!

I’ve updated this to include a possible Monday morning (the actual time might change) BR Group session.

NOTE: I front-loaded the PT 70s because I believe that people need to get eyes on 70s sooner rather than later. We’ll still have PT 76 available to PT at the end of November.

I am beginning to PT since i last took a Kaplan course. They suggested that at 12 or 15 you skip to 26 and work backward basically skipping the 2nd to last full page and working back to middle. Does anyone else do this ? is it silly or good advice?

I took the Oct. 2015 LSAT and would love to see the review for it before I take the December LSAT. Does anyone know if 7Sage will be making that available anytime soon?

Hello all!

I am taking the LSAT in February and I am on a very tight budget but was wondering if the LSAT Starter is sufficient? Will it only be helpful for easy question sets or will I be able to utilize the skills in the LSAT Starter to sufficiently solve difficult problem sets as well? My concern is not being able to master difficult problems on the exam.

I erroneously chose the wrong answer because of the word "reject". I knew the argument was committing an absence of evidence argument/flaw. However, I felt "reject the possibility that" was too strong because I felt just because the author didn't mention it doesn't mean he rejected it. He may have simply not thought about it. It's not like someone brought up the idea and he rejected it.

LSAT Prep Test 26 (September 1998) - S3 - Question 10

I'm now considering postponing my test until February but still applying for the Fall 2016 cycle with the score I have until I the other score. My issue with postponing the exam is I don't have a plan of what I need to start doing differently in order to see results... I've been at the same score 151 roughly even after finish the 7sage course. What can I do to ensure that it will go up? I've been at a 151 since April... And seen no sign of improvement. My weakest section is LR I'm averaging -11 -12 per section. Someone please help! I've messaged 7sage tutors and have yet to get a response. Should I just take the exam and be done with it? I feel hopeless at this point.

Hello,

If there is anyone on 7sage that has applied to American law schools as a Canadian student coming from a Canadian university could you please give any insight as to the process. I am mainly interested in the GPA calculations. My GPA calculated by OLSAS is ~3.92 but under LSAC it is around 3.54. Any insight is much appreciated!

Hey there fellow busy people.

I have read a lot of articles talk about how people balance the two things but most focus on finding/making time. I have made time but struggle to find focus during that time.

I study an hour or so every morning before work (I go in at 9 but can show up as late as 930 if I stay longer) and try to study when I get home for at least 2 hours. The thing is, my morning hours are usually OK but not great because I'm still waking up (wake up at 645) and my evening hours are getting worse and worse. I catch my self making silly mistakes I normally don't make. Forget PTing, things as simple as drilling games or LR. When it comes to things like wording I miss things where when I BR I'm like "duh." It is like my full focus isn't there and I can feel it not being there. I miss more things during evening drills than during weekend PTs.

I've tried meditating for 10 minutes or so when I get home but it hasn't quite done it. Though it has only been about a week of trying it. I've though about doing drills during lunch but I only have a 30-40 minute lunch but I usually want that time as an actual break to get a breather in my long day. Is this being lazy? And even if I do, its at most 20 minutes worth of games that will just make me feel more stressed at work. Doesn't seem worth it.

Should I be hitting the gym between work and studying or taking a nap?

I just feel like I'm wasting material often times when I drill while tired. Not sure if it would be better to do things untimed or take longer on my BRs from my weekend PTs or simply read some old RC material to get use to the passages.

So in summary I'm wonder if I should make changes to when I'm studying, how I'm studying, or what I am studying.

It was easier before when I was mostly watching curriculum during the week but now that I am done with it I am a little thrown off. For now I decided to take a LSAT break this weekend and go on a little trip somewhere to see if it is jut burnout but I think it is more than that. Like an actual problem with my study schedule/strategy.

Thanks in advance for the advice.

Hello,

If I upgrade, but then change my mind for whatever reason, am I able to get a full refund for the upgrade, if I decide I no longer want it?

Summary: This is far and away the ideal test center. If you're anywhere near DFW or North/East Texas, take the test here! I told an LSAC employee about my experience and she said it was one of the best she had ever heard of. I would even consider making the trek from OKC or Austin.

Setting Pros: We were in small rooms; I had 9 other people in my room. Each person had an entire large table. My room was in the basement near a bathroom.

Parking free and easy. Right off the freeway.

Setting Cons: It might get a little cold. Not a lot of great hotels nearby but you could branch out a bit (if traveling to the test center).

Proctor Pros: We had 2 lovely proctors who kept time very well. They were extremely quiet and respectful.

Proctor Cons: None.

Can't understand this question for the life of me. Might be because I don't have a good science background.

The author says explicitly in lines 34-42 that because the "magnetic fields of basalts in NA are aligned quite differently from rocks formed in the same epoch in Europe" this supports the theory of continental drift.

Doesn't (C) undermine this since it talks about some being the same magnetic field alignment? And how is (A) the answer? The seafloor spreading supports contintental drift since it shows that the plates move. Isn't (A) just something additional that we were able to figure out?

A and E were easy to eliminate, would appreciate an explanation for why A is right and C and D are wrong. TIA.

Like the title says, I'd registered for the Dec at JFKU law and had enquired about seating conditions at it with the test center staff. I received an update that suggests that seating will be bad (multiple people on the same desk), which can be very distracting for me.

Should I change the test center? The Deadline is Today so I don't have much time.

I am open to driving far as long as the center has excellent seating and will be staying at a hotel the night before.

I am considering other centers in Bay Area.

I am consideting UoP McGeorge Law at Sacramento but don't know anything about this test center.

Any opinions on if I should change and to what center in Bay Area?

Petri dishes are disgusting and probably shouldn’t be stored anywhere near another disgusting petri dish. Sorry, not sorry.

Ewwww!

Note:

So I used to be averaging around -2 to -4 on the older RC passages but for some reason with most of the 50+ ones I've been taking, I always get around -7 to -9. I've been trying to change my method and lengthen the time I read the passage (used to do 2 minutes, trying for 3.5 now). Is it better for me to continue working on adapting to this new method, or stick to my old one? Or are the new ones just a little different and need some more time to adjust to?

Also, I didn't have much luck finding tips on comparative passages on the discussion board (probably didn't look far enough), so if anyone knows a link to suggestions on these that would help immensely!

Thank you!

LSAT Party time, that is!

Hello,

Would the LSAT ever use the same flaw type that has subcategories in the same question? For example, would it ever have multiple answer choices that would say A) over generalization B) Bisased sampling , etc. there are many subcategories of this flaw type but would they have answer choices that falls under the subcategories

Don’t wait to hit the 70s in January! Be prepared!

I've been studying on my own for some time. When I do PTs I notice that I am getting an average of 5 wrong per LR section. All of them are either assumption or paralel/parallel flaw questions. Everything else is right. I've been looking online and most of the suggestions involve diagramming. I don't know how to do that. Diagramming confuses me. Right now my results are -0 for games, -5 for reading ( which I am improving by getting used to reading more. ) but for my LR sections, I am stuck. Any suggestions or advice? Is learning how to diagram mandatory?
