One of the ways that I study for reading comp is downloading scholarly articles off of my university's database. I was wondering if there was any way that I could upload those documents to 7sage's digital tester, or if I could even download the digital tester as an app or toolbar of some sort so I can mark up the articles similar to how I would for the actual test. Also, I am open to suggestions with note taking sites or apps that could serve a similar function and have a similar feel to the digital test. Thank you!

I am looking for an accountability partner from now until the April LSAT. I want someone who is planning to apply early for Fall 2022, has been studying for the test for a while, is aiming for a T10 law school, wants a 170+, and wants to get this thing over with by the middle of this year. I prefer someone who is weaker on LG (no specific limit here) but stronger on LR and RC (-2 to 4 range) so we can complement each other. I am breaking even on all sections but while I can mostly figure out my errors for LG by myself, I often can't do so with LR and RC. My highest PT was a 168 and I am looking to break into the 170s. If you are interested, please PM me, not comment. We can meet once a week through zoom or maybe even more depending on how things go and I honestly just want another human by my side through all this because this test material is very dry to say the least

AC A is correct because even though No creative employes are at the company we can not conclude for that that there is not one creative person in that company that it's what AC A is giving us

Admin Note: Edited title. For LR questions, please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."

Hi everyone! Like many people recommend, I have been saving the most recent PT's for my study sessions closer to the real LSAT exam. I understand that the newer practice tests shouldn't be (or, subjectively they shouldn't be) more difficult, but I am noticing that I am really struggling with them! So far I have taken a few in the 70's and a few in the 80's. My scores have been significantly lower. Has anyone noticed that they are having issues as well? I know there truly are very subtle differences, but I'm just not too sure how to adjust my studying accordingly. Does anyone have any advice for how to approach these newer tests?

I've been out of school for 3 years. Going to law school only became a goal of mine my last semester of college. I ended up getting 5 academic recommendations the summer after graduating just so I'd have them on file when I was 100% secure in the decision to go to law school and likely rack up debt. Since I've heard academic letters are preferred to non-academic, I never really thought about getting one from work because I already have more than I can submit to any single school. Should I be getting one from an employer?

For some context on the letters I have, two are by STEM professors (I double majored in STEM & non-STEM), one is from a non-STEM professor, and two are from non-STEM professors who were also my thesis advisors and law professors at my undergrad's law school.

Since graduating I've worked at two law firms and am about to switch to a third firm. The areas of law I've worked in are pretty relevant because they all combine my interest in law, technology, and science in different ways: my first job was as a legal assistant/paralegal at a boutique firm representing start ups and individuals in IP (mostly trade secret) litigation, my second job has been at a boutique criminal defense firm representing clients facing computer crime charges, and my third job will be as a patent litigation paralegal in big law.

Even if I get rec letters from employers which letters should I submit given that most schools accept 2-4?

I feel like my STEM LORs help me stand out, especially because one is from a professor whose lab I worked in and co-authored a peer-reviewed scientific article with. My thesis advisors have a really great picture of why I want to go to law school because my honors thesis empirically studied an area of patent law I'm pretty passionate about (and about to work in w/my third job).

As the thread topic suggests, I'm looking for a study buddy or study buddies within SF or the greater Bay Area. Preferably someone that's been through most of the curriculum (I'm more than 70% through). PM me or respond to this post. Hope to hear from you soon!

I was hoping someone can help me clarify this. So, I just bought the score preview option and i was under the impression that i just had to do it before my test release date (feb 3). But, after seeing that it allowed me to purchase it i just checked lsac website and it says the deadline to purchase score preview was yesterday. Im just wondering why it would process my order . was it a glitch ? or am i really signed up for it ?

I'm really struggling to set up my game boards both quickly and in a manner that is helpful to solve the games. For example, I did PT 34, S4 today and could not for the life of me figure out how to set up the game board. Once I watched the explanation, it made total sense and it took me about :30 to answer each question.

Are there videos/tutorials I'm missing outside of these following lessons?:

Introduction to Logic Games & Sequencing Games

Sequencing Games with a Twist

Introduction to Grouping Games: The In-Out Games

Grouping Games

Grouping Games with a Chart

Grouping and Sequencing Games

Any other resources on learning how to set up game boards quickly and in a manner that actually helps the game would be much appreciated!

Hi All. I have two questions:

(1) Roughly when did the important distinguishing features of newer logical reasoning questions become the norm? I'm thinking in particular about longer and tougher stems, more frequent strengthen/weaken/RRE questions, less frequent formal logic questions, and generally trickier answer choices?

(2) In these newer LR sections, are the toughest questions typically found between questions #11 and 20? Or are 21-26 generally harder? Or has it gotten more random?

I've been largely following the "save the best for last" approach in my studying thus far, and so have only recently moved from tests #20-45 or so to more recent tests. Recently, I've begun alternating between tests near #80 and closer to the 50s, and plan to keep doing so. Today, though, I took my first test in the 50s (#55) after taking a couple near #80, and the LR sections felt much closer to the old style I'd been used to than the new style I'd seen in #78 and #80---in particular I noticed more formal logic, and that the hardest questions were located near the end rather than the late-middle. So I'm wondering what to expect. Roughly when did the shift that happened between early and late tests occur, and how accurate is my sense (partially based on some article I now can't find) that the newer sections have harder questions towards the late-middle?

Hi I took the April LSAT and got a 161. Much lower than my average Pt's. My last 5 PT average is 168.6 and my last 10 is a 166.8. If anybody wants free tutoring I'm offering it. This is would be my first time tutoring someone and also keep in mind I am still in the process of taking this exam. The reason I am doing this is because it would benefit me as well in explaining topics or AC's to someone. If interested lmk

Please also DM a short paragraph where you are in your study journey/ skills/ weaknesses/ how many PTs you have taken/ if you've finished the CC/ and anything else you'd think is important to state.

I am trying to figure out if this is a personal problem or if others agree with me. In the recorded lessons, when the stimulus is being read it is drawn out and everything is shortened. but when I try it on my own, while I'm reading it completely disrupts my reading process. I catch myself forgetting where I am at and instead focusing on abbreviations instead of what I am actually reading. so is this just a me problem? and does anyone have suggestions on how to fix this problem?

Hi Everyone!

I was wondering any of you guys had opinions as to the difficulty of the new flex tests? It seems like on all previous (non flex tests) there is one harder LR and a less hard LR section (proof in that 7Sage seems to rank one section as 2/5 and the other as 3/5), do the flex tests seem to have a middling difficulty in the one LR section? I haven't taken any of the actual flex tests yet.

Any opinions would be appreciated! I have been using the flex converter on my PT's now and I'm wondering how accurate the scores are.
