I know the correct answer is E, however I am stuck at how C is not the correct answer even after watching the

Johnson is not a commercial raspberry grower AND he got a plant that carried a virus. We know that these two qualities (plant with virus and non-commercial growers) are the complete opposite of the type of business MOST large nurseries do. So, would that not make it probable that Wally's is not a large nursery because the type of customer and plant received by Johnson is the complete opposite of what MOST large nurseries offer?

Is this a case of C not necessarily being incorrect, but E is just a better answer?

Hopefully that makes sense and thank you for any help

I am currently still so frustrated to deal with NA questions,

and i think i still haven't figured out how to practice negate strategy in POE.

Does anyone know the most helpful videos or any sources to parse it out or just help me make them clear?

Thanks a lot!

PrepTest B - Section 1 - Question 19

can anyone come up with an explanation for this.

PrepTest C - Section 3 - Question 08

I am confused as to why the answer is A and not C.

In the conclusion:

"But this cannot be so, for unless some uses of words are literal, there can be no nonliteral uses of any words."

is the first part:

"for unless some uses of words are literal"

a part of the premise?

Hi Everyone,

I just did question 18 in Section 2 of PT 77 and I am confused by the language in answer choice D. It says "fails to exclude the possibility that there might be legitimate evidence motivating those who reject Shakespeare's authorship". The fails to exclude part threw me off and I was hoping someone could better explain that to me. Thanks!

When reading through the logical reasoning bible i have and going through the drills i find myself subconsciously following the same technique for both question types which leads me to ask what is the difference?

Hi,

This is a question about an answer choice like that of PT62 S2 Q20.

It's: The younger a universe is, the brighter the stars are.

Do these relationships work similarly like conditionals, in that only after concluding that the universe is younger, we can say the brighter its stars are?

i.e. you can't see a situation that the stars are brighter, therefore conclude that the universe is younger with this type of relationship?

Thank you.

I live in Downtown LA and wanted to see if anyone wanted to meet up to study on weekends or even weekdays. We can do online too!

These logical reasoning questions make me feel so stupid! It makes so much sense afterwards but not in the moment. I don't know how i'm going to get a strategy down that will make me see this in the moment and before I make the mistake. I need a foolproof strategy for this! Anyone got any tips or methods they've found helpful? Please message me! I'd love to bounce ideas off of one another for LR and become study buddies.

Hi all, I thought that students still had access to the Wrong Answer Journal after taking a PT, but I do not see it. Can someone tell me where I can find it on here?

i'm curious if you could still actually study and practice logic games even after they remove this section from the test. i find learning and practicing these problems are very beneficial in developing analytical skills for law and other aspects of life. i'm not very good at these under time pressure but appreciate the challenge and feel good about showing improvement in my practice scores.

Hi all,

I took the April 2024 LSAT and am going to retake in August. As such I am going to switch over to the new syllabus and I am looking for some guidance on the following. Any help is appreciated!

I already went through most of the LR curriculum but I am considering redoing it. Is it substantially different and worth taking from the top? Or mostly the same?

I noticed that when you switch over all of the drill questions and prep tests are now marked untaken. Is this completely fresh material or is it reusing questions from the old syllabus. My concern is that when I switch over I will be repeating questions and there will be no indication whether or not I have taken them before. This also effects my drilling strategy going forward.

If anybody has switched between the two already and has any guidance it would be much appreciated!

Hi everyone. I have been studying for the lsat for more than 2 1/2 years now. My highest score was a 175 and I am usually scoring between 165-169. I took the April Lsat and scored a 159 :(. I don't know where to go from here now. Im really solid in LR and LG, but Reading Comp kills my score, consistently getting -7. Can anyone help me, or is anyone interested in being a study buddy?

Hi 7Sagers-- I'm sharing my story in case it helps with others gritting their teeth to push past plateaus, crushed by the weight of their own expectations. Since I was a kid, it has always been my dream to become an attorney. But I paused that dream after college in order to enter the workforce and financially provide for my family. Like many of you, this test terrified me. I took my diagnostic and scored a 145. But deep down, I knew I wanted a 170. I read many online forums that claimed that such a score jump is impossible.

I worked long hours with multiple jobs and I barely had time to sleep. The routine of working full time, studying at night, and maintaining my mental and physical health was a Herculean effort. I took two different courses, eventually landing on the holy grail of 7Sage. But my PT scores were erratic, often plummeting down along with my confidence and self-worth. I scoffed at stories of people suggesting that 3-6 months of studying was enough. Two years have passed for me and I only increased 10-15 points.

With the help of 7Sage tutors, I scored a 166. I jumped up and down in joy. But every time I hit the ground, I felt in my stomach that I wasn't done. I felt as if I didn't reach my goal of 170, I won't be able to face my other ambitious, nearly-impossible career goals. I must defeat this last boss monster in front of me. I must push this Sisyphean boulder past this mountain slope, no matter how many times I fall.

I was tired. I hated this test. I made a hard decision to defer law school for another year even though I was nearly five years past undergrad. But I took a four month break from the test. Refreshed, I began studying for several more months. This April, I finally got the 170. Three years of infinite drilling, crying at the desk, saying 'no' to friends, all paid off.

Please don't give up. Take a break. Come back. Don't rush the process.

You are Sisyphus. Except in this story, the boulder will fall over the mountain.

Hey all,

My name is Blake and I'm just starting my LSAT journey recently - was wondering if there was anybody in the Lexington, KY area (by the University of Kentucky) who would be interested in forming a group either online or in person.

Hi,

I plan on taking the August LSAT began studying for the LSAT in March of this year, doing roughly one hour a day since I was busy, and taking a break in April because of other issues. I took one diagnostic and scored a 140. Is it realistic to attempt to score a 160 by August? What do you think I should do.

I just finished this test and spent a lot of time on this question. B seems like the obvious correct answer at first (and is the correct answer), but the argument about efforts being wasted on protecting endangered species' NATURAL habitats is, in my opinion, unaffected by the creation of an animal refuge. The establishment of an animal refuge seems to me like an obviously distinct effort than one that is protecting a natural habitat. By it needing to be established and the word "refuge", it seems artificial by definition.

Can someone help me understand this?

Have heard that international LSATS use previously undisclosed LSAT exams. Since the most recent LSATs in the past two years have been much more difficult and with harder curves, would this mean that the international LSAT is therefore slightly easier than the U.S. one.

This is pure speculation on my part but I believe that it may be the case.

When I do my Wrong Answer Journals, I always ask: Why is answer choice (insert choice) correct? Why did I get it wrong?

Are those good alternative questions to the one 7Sage recommends? I also ask because I got used to asking those two questions.

I tried to do some drills today and found I could not because I do not have Lawhub Advantage. Please do not tell me I will run into the same trouble when I finally take a practice test.... Lawhub Advantage is $115 7Sage 2nd tier subscription is $99. Why am I paying for the same thing twice. This is extremely frustrating. I have yet to complete one step of applying to law school without dropping a minimum of $100 to progress to the next "step"

I am doing ok on the logic games for the most part, but I am really struggling with the in/out games. Is anyone down to maybe have a study session on this sometime?

Hi,

Planning on taking the new lsat as soon as it comes out since I’m a junior and want to apply to law school as soon as possible. On my first practice exam I got a 142 and same on the second. I know it seems fast but my goal is 170. I believe anything is possible. But I have issue with just how to study and too indecisive to stick with one. The other issue is on 7Sage there’s 2 versions. I’m currently doing a mix of both since version 2 is newer I assume it’s better. But I have dis Lexi a (WHY DO THEY MAKE THAT WORD HARD TO SPELL) anyways… so ver2 lack of videos make it hard to understand but on version 1 it mostly explanions and not tips or learning going on. Lol any help will be greatful. I only want to go to law school and it's literally all I have left. (long sad story)

Hi everyone, curious to get your thoughts on my LSAT keep vs. cancel debate -

I got a 168 in Feb, which was my target score, but prior to receiving the score, was convinced that I didn't do that well so kept studying fervently and as a result, decided to try for higher even when I did get my score. Unfortunately, I was tripped up by logic games and ended up with a 165 on the April test.

I don't believe I need to retake the test to have a decent chance at my target schools (3.93 undergrad + some unique / strong "softs"), but I am on the fence about trying again anyway, so that is a potential factor.

A couple of thoughts I have that are making me (counterintuitively) trending toward keep -

One counterpoint for canceling if I don't retake - how much does the adcom really care about a single cancellation? Would they probably really just see the 168? Vs. perhaps seeing the 165 might "cement" that I'm more of a mid-upper 160s tester.

So, would greatly appreciate your thoughts on whether to keep or cancel in both scenarios. Thanks in advance.
