Hi
I paid for my upgrade yesterday (its been about 24 hours) but it seems that I cannot access the Starter level material. I worked through a lot of the free stuff so I have been anxious to start. Does it take a while for the account to recognize that I already upgraded?
I am just wondering if we are suppose to go through all the lessons and then tackle the PTs one by one after we have worked through the syllabus. Do people incorporate the PTs into their studying or does everyone work through all the lessons first?
If anyone is serious and interested in studying for the December LSAT and lives in the Miami area, please contact me as soon as possible. esther.adam2013@gmail.com
Hey fellow Sagers,
I was wondering did anyone hear start out with a 135 or something or something along those lines when they started their prep with 7sage? If yes what is your score now and how did you do it? Thanks! I really need all the motivation that I can get. I plan on taking December and I'm aiming for at least 155

Hi, if anyone's interested we can work around a schedule.
Aside from practice tests, what is the best way to practice stamina for the real test?
I am simply not improving in logical reasoning. It just does not click. I am really frustrated and want to give up. With reading comp I can usually get all of them right and I can complete 3-4 logic games, but I always bomb the logical reasoning section. I feel as if I am missing something. Am I just meant to never do well on those. I don't think I want to take the September test.
I took my first PT after finishing the course and scored a 153. I am taking a week off to go over my weaknesses by watching the lessons and practice Q's all over again. Plus drilling an addtl 20 Q's for each weakness. What kind of progress should I expect on my next PT? Or does it vary from person to person? So far I am getting 18/20 19/20 on my drills. I don't want to get discouraged so I am preparing myself for what would be a normal improvement from PT to PT. I kind of feel that doing good with my drills and reviewing all my lessons I could make a 163 on my next PT but that's impossible right? xD
If anyone can share their experience from their PT progress I would appreciate it!

I'd like some help with this MC question. I correctly labeled the main conclusion and narrowed it down to answer choices (B) and (C). However, I couldn't for the life of me distinguish the distinction between the two answer choices. An explanation is provided via JY in the 7sage ultimate package-- albeit, I am still not 100% confident on the correct answer choice.
Thanks!
Can someone explain that why is D wrong and why is E right?
I just thought I would throw this question out to the community in hopes of getting a question answered. I am currently planning on studying health care law. Does anyone know how much the ranking of a specialty law program matters in terms of future employment? I have seen few answers online regarding the topic and I have seen even less evidence to back up opinions.
Hey all, on PT 24, game 4, the rule reads "V cannot be prescribed unless both H and M are prescribed."
J.Y translates this to:
V -> M
V->H.
I am having trouble translating this. I know with these you take an idea, negate it, then apply the translation rule.
I keep coming up with
H & M -> V.
Hope I can get some help!
I have been studying for a few months now, since the beginning of May, and I have a solid score of 152 almost every time I take a prep test.
My LG is usually anywhere between 17-20 correct, so I think my LG is fine, but I struggle on the last two sections.
Most specifically, I think I'm struggling in second-guessing myself. I go back and review my answers, and most are from me deciding between two.... but always picking the wrong one. Does anyone else have this problem? Can you guys suggest anything to get me out of this slump? My law school that I'm applying to bases entrance on GPA vs LSAT almost exclusively, so I need a range of 159-165 to "get in".
Help! :(
Hello Guys!
I wanted to see if there's anyone who's willing to meetup every weekend on Saturdays and Sundays to study for the LSATs together for the Dec 6th LSAT! I've been studying through TestMasters and BenchPrep. I also have other resources from older test materials from Powerscore and Kaplan. I was meaning to find people with similar interests and working together to understanding each question and succeed! I live around Whittier/Cerritos so anyone close to this area will be ideal, If you're interested please contact this Discussion group or e-mail me at Ekim039@ucr.edu! Thank you!
Hi all!
After a long day of prepping and wracking my brain over LR, I am asking myself "Why law school?" I'm in need of motivation--or maybe a wake-up call.
I'm curious, why do you all want to go to law school? What keeps you motivated? What do you want to do that taking the LSAT will enable you to do?
The videos are loading however there is no sound. I have restarted and logged in again, neither has helped.
Hey Fellow Sagers,
Iv'e been studying for the exam now for over a month, but I really don't see any results. I can't break a 140! My goal is not to get a 170+, I'm just being realistic with myself. Anyways, I don't have a good or on ok section. On My last Prep test that I took (Test 52) which was done on timed conditions,I did terrible. I got -32 on LR, - 21 on RC and -14 on LG. I don't know what to do. I've never been a good standardized test taker. If I can get in the Mid 150's I'll be more than glad. My gpa is a solid 3.85. Please help! Is there anyone one else out there that is starting out in the mid 130's? I plan on taking the test in December. Thank you for your time.
I finished the curriculum and did about 4 practice tests so far and i'm seeing dramatic score variations (like from 154 to 163 and back down to 151)... is this normal?? I'm wondering if the 163 was an anomaly and i'm trying not to get discouraged. I know it's still early in the PT stage, but what is everyone's experience with their score varying during PTs?
Hi, I was making up statements to practice and I'm confused about how "no" works when there is a double negative (or what I think is double negative). The statement reads: "No one who fails to come to the party is David."
Based on JY's lesson, we isolate "no" as a Group 4 Necessary Condition indicator. The first idea is "Fail to Come to the Party" (FTCTP) and the second idea is "David" (D). So, I pick either of the two ideas, negate it, and make it a necessary condition. I chose the first idea.
D --> /FTCTP
which, I think, can be rewritten as D --> CTP since "Not Fail to Come to the Party" is essentially "Come To the Party"
Is this lawgic accurate? Some of my friends are suggesting that because of the "fail to", the correct lawgic would be: CTP --> D
and now im confused :(
thanks in advance for your input!
Hi all,
I've been studying for the LSAT rigorously since about mid-March. My diagnostic test was a 154 and since then I've gotten up to the low 160s, but I've completely plateaued in the last several weeks. I can't seem to ever get above a 165, which is really disheartening. Any advice on how to overcome the plateau/pessimism I'm feeling at the moment would be immensely appreciated.
I am sorry if this was already discussed, but I cannot seem to figure out how to enter my BR score into the answer sheet after I already entered my original score. Could somebody please let me know how to proceed?
Thank you.
Why does JY in his videos always recommend reading the question stem first? Can't that be confusing sometimes without having read the stimulus? Also, If you read the question stem before and after reading the stimulus, doesn't that waste time? I'd be really grateful for an explanation as to why reading the question first is the best strategy.
All the different companies use different phrases for question types and I'm getting a bit confused by the different terms. Can someone explain what pseudo sufficient questions mean?
