I've tried to post this twice but had technical difficulties both times -- here's try 3 :)

I'm sure I'm not the only one on here who lives somewhere too remote for an in-person study buddy; I'm looking for one or two people who are interested in an informal study/discussion partner thing. I'm shooting for the February test, so it would probably make sense if that was your goal as well :-)

I have lots of time to study, personally -- but really, I don't think it's as important that we are on the same page study-wise as it is that we're both super-dedicated and motivated to the process!

I figure we can do as much or as little as we like; at the least, we can discuss questions/question types, compare progress and any tips/tricks we might have come across, and be general advocates for each other's success :) if the worst that comes out of it is extra motivation and a new friend or two who also will be heading off to study law, that seems like enough to make it worthwhile.

My personal plan is as follows: I've taken 4 PTs already, and will continue to work through all of the PTs after #40. I use the PTs before 40 for extra sections (to better simulate test day), as well as for extra section practice. I'm averaging 171 right now, with a test-day target of 177.

I hope to hear from you -- but regardless, best of luck with your own studies!

Did it eat anyone else's lunch as completely as it did mine? Ouch!

Anyone know of/recommend any of the services available to help with personal statements, resumes, etc…. ?

WH- PT - JP - TB - PD - CB - SM - PM - CE - DT - ? - PC

What is the ?

For Main Point questions, are they asking us to kind of mechanically pick out the conclusion of the argument, as indicated by words such as "thus", "therefore" etc or are they asking us to fully read and understand the argument and pick the answer choice that best captures what the stimulus is aiming to prove? Basically is main point = conclusion or does it mean the gist of the stimulus?

Anyone having a hard time changing answers during the Blind Review? I find myself biased toward the initial answer chosen and convince myself to stick with the original choice regardless if it turns out to be right or not...

Guys, when you're exercising or commuting or just putzing around, listen to the podcasts from Radiolab and Planet Money. From a content point of view, you'll learn a ton about science (both natural and social). The way the subjects are discussed is highly intelligent and the entire conversation is a series of arguments and counterarguments that ultimately reveal something deeply fascinating about the world we live in.

So, basically the polar opposite of cable news, where nothing interesting is ever discussed and no intelligent arguments are ever made.

Oh I almost forgot. This will improve your LSAT score.

Do you have to do and go over all the 7058 questions ever released before you're prepared for the lsat? I'm probably gonna take the Feb exam but there won't be enough time to do and go over every prep test so I'm thinking of skipping prep tests 1-20, maybe I'll be forced to skip even more. What do you guys think?

I was scheduled for the december test but it was pushed to February. My entire group that I usually review with took the December test, so I'm looking for a few people to review PTs with. We usually reviewed via google hangout or skype.

Scheduling:

Most likely PTing some 30s, some 40s, 52-71. I'm open to changing around the schedule to different material. I just really want someone committed to staying on track and keeping a schedule.

Stats:

Highest pt 155; mainly low bc of RC.

-0 to -2 LG. -10 to -8 LR. RC is terrible.

I'm hoping to find someone that really wants to pt and review every other day with one day off a week. If anyone is interested please let me know.

My guess is that disciplines that are populated by smart, well-educated people who are good readers but are nevertheless characterized by crummy, turgid, verbose, abstruse, abstract, solecism-ridden prose, are usually part of a discipline where the vector of meaning—as a way to get information or opinion from me to you—versus writing, as a form of dress or speech or style that signals that “I am a member of this group,” gets thrown off.

Hey all,

I just got an email from Harvard saying that they've changed this year's application deadline to March 1 due to the snow storm. Does this mean it's feasible to apply with the FEB 2014 LSAT scores? for all schools? just Harvard?

Let me know if anybody knows more about this!

Thanks,

Sujin

I am reorganizing all my material and have a stack of old (3-4 month old) PTs I never thoroughly reviewed... worth my time going back and reviewing to correct my errors or has it been too long and would defeat the purpose? It might be a personal thing, but I feel like it would be beneficial.

Got any tips JY? Or 7sage community in general?

I realize this is specifically lsat prep but any advice for the next step would be greatly appreciated.

I'll be back in Orlando late March. April and May I plan on going to UCF every single day to study in the library.

It would be cool to have a partner in crime.

I don't think skype is the answer, but I have heard that taking a weekly [or so] full LSAT in a group is key. Maybe I will pretend everyone in the library is doing a preptest, cause even though this is worldwide, it makes some city & states so remote like PCB FL. The college message board, if there is such a thing, might help. Ha.

I am trying to figure out which one is experiment section and trying to score myself.

Any advice, suggestion and idea?

Just wanted to know if you guys were planning on doing something similar to this: http://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/56/nyc-open-bar-post-june-lsat-monday-evening

it would be great to meet JY, Jon, and everyone else that got me through this hell known as the LSATs and buy you a drink (along with any other 7Sagers obviously).

Obviously not everyone is in New York, but for those that are, let's drink away our concerns over our scores!

Anyone else in?

We're going to dominate this test!

Looking for study buddy, shooting for 170 range. Msg me if you are around too :)

Ugh, I just got an email from LSAC saying that tomorrow's test has been cancelled at my assigned test center (Chemeketa Community College in Salem, OR). I seriously can't believe this! There isn't even snow in the forecast, it's just cold. Is there anyone else here who's affected by this??? The email says "Next week we will contact you by email regarding options, including a make-up administration." I hope this doesn't delay the reporting of my score. I'm already submitting my applications way later than I had intended. :-(

Anyone else feel a little sad about cutting 7sage cold turkey after saturday? I feel like JY and I are in a pretty serious relationship after spending hours everyday listening to his voice.

From the BBC:

From our president:

Anyone have the link? I remember wanting to watch it later but I cant seem to find the link.. Thanks in advance!

Does the app require a separate account from my 7sage account? I've tried to log in multiple times yesterday and today with the correct email address or username and password only to see "wrong password" or "try later".

I am taking the February 2014 LSAT and would like to find a study buddy in the NYC area. You can email me at [removed]
