Does anyone have any tips on studying LR? It’s the section I struggle the most on and I’m not sure if I’m studying right or what but I haven’t seen much improvement in weeks. All suggestions are greatly appreciated!!

Hey 7Sagers! I'm doing some research on schools at the moment and would love to connect with any current Cornell Law students or alums who could give me some thoughts on their experiences there, both academically and personally.

For some context, I don't know exactly what field of law I'd like to practice, but I'm interested in immigration law and international law, potentially labor law. I'm definitely intrigued by the alternative dispute resolution program Cornell has as well.

If anyone on here is a Cornell student or has a friend there who would be willing to connect via email, that would amazing! Thanks in advance.

Hey all!

My name is Rez and I'm looking for a study buddy for the June 2021 exam. I've been studying for a few months and finally seeing progress (BR 165 on the May Flex exam taken last week). My strengths include RC and LG and I'd like to improve more on LR.

I have a flexible schedule and I'd love to host a blind review session with you. If interested, please email me at: rezwan.haq@gmail.com.

Sincerely,

Rez

Hello, I am interested in connecting with individuals who plan to take the LSAT in February at the University of Louisville or will be studying for the test in the Greater Louisville-Area. Contact me if you may be interested in creating a study group or would like to partner with me till the testing day February 2015

Hello everyone!

I am still in the beginning stages of studying for the LSAT and am looking for a study buddy (or group) to bounce questions off of, as well as do Blind Review with. I am aiming for the February LSAT, but if I feel like I'm not ready, I will be testing in April instead. As of now, my strongest section is Logical Reasoning, and my weakest section is Reading Comprehension. Most recent PT was 156, (BR - 159). I'm aiming to do the best I possibly can!

If anyone is interested, please pm me.

Good luck to everyone!

Am I the only one who would totally pay for this? LG has always been my favorite section because I love logic puzzles (even on the days they don't love me.) And since LSAC is looking to change this section of the test, I would like these puzzles to do in my spare time. Especially since if I manage to get my goal score on the first try, I may never get to see some of the infamous games I haven't had a chance to try yet.

Okay I'm kind of new here. I did the intro test on this site. completed the 3 sections. IT said my score was "-X" and that's all. WTF does that mean. is that the total questions I got wrong? is that the amount of points deducted from a perfect score? there was absolutely no explanation or metric to understand exactly what that score means. can someone please advise?

Hey guys,

I am wondering if CPA PEP (Canada) is considered a mandatory institution for LSAC transcript requirements. Its a professional designation for an accounting license which requires module work to be done.

I e-mailed LSAC about it but shocker, no reply for ages.

Hi all,

I’m looking for a study buddy who’s really solid with RC — I used to average max -3 on RC with older tests but am now doing worse than before — now I sometimes get -7. I am currently averaging anywhere from 168-173. If anyone would benefit from explaining how they arrive at certain answers/compare PTs — DM me! Would love to meet via Zoom couple of times throughout the week until the Nov flex.

hello everyone,

in a past life, I took the GRE because I was convinced I wanted to get a PhD in Political Science. After many professors telling me not to do this and instead go JD-MPP, I've been on the law school path. Today, I got an email from Georgetown's Admissions Director "I invite you to apply for Fall 2021 admission with your GRE score. Although this invitation does not waive your application fee or guarantee admission, we feel that your academic talent and background would make a positive contribution to the intellectual community at the Law Center."

What does this mean? Don't want to get my hopes up. My LSAT score has been consistently around 166 on practice tests, so I thought G'Town would be a reach.

Hi,

I was hoping that someone might be interested in reviewing my personal statement and giving me feedback.

I'm a bit confused at this point and need some direction. I've had it reviewed a few times and don't know when to stop editing it. I think that I'll always find faults in it so I'd love some feedback to identify what actually needs to be improved.

Looking for a group of motivated individuals who want to learn, progress, and prioritize the LSAT. People who can forge together and keep each other accountable on studying and practicing. I graduated from U of M -Dearborn with a BA in English Literature and double Minor in Criminal Justice and Writing. I'd be willing to help with personal statements in our study group as well.

Has anyone taken 7sage Law school prep courses, I am wondering if anyone has found it beneficial. I can't find reviews on it.

I'm having trouble deciding whether or not to even consider writing a diversity statement. I'm wondering if growing up with a special needs sibling and/or single parent would be a diversifying element, or if I should just skip it altogether .

Hey ya'll

Im planing to take Feb LSAT, the first time I took LSAT I got 127 in June 2020, and now my highest PT LSAT score is150. It been a while that even though I study a lot with BR Im not improving, My GPA 3.80 ( from UCI) is more than the 75 percentile for the school that I love to attend (chapman law) but my LSAT is bellow 25(154) percentile. I was wondering what do you think my chances are to get Into chapman at all or get in with scholarship?

Imagine getting into your top school...only for it to be rescinded. :(

Hello All

I am graduating in April with a 3.8 GPA & I am writing for the Test in January 16 for the first time . I will be studying to target score over 166 and I am looking for someone who wants to succeed at the LSAT togather .

If you are interested in, I would love to chat and see if our approaches to the exam are compatible. Please message me directly. I only want people who are serious.

Thank you

Best Regards ,

Raffi

I just thought of this today and wanted to know if it would be an issue, the place I have been practicing for the LSAT in and where I plan to take it from is an upstairs room that doubles as a storage place for all my parents useless things that they don't want to throw out but do not need currently. Examples are scrap books, non perishable food, suitcases, pictures and some more things like that. The room is big and in the center I have my big desk I have been working at, nothing around me is of any academic value but will I be required to move things out of the room?

I started out doing full length PTs and transitioned to Flex PTs soon after LSAC announced the flex. I recently took a full-length PT and my score went up by 5 points! It was beautiful. Then I realized that it could be variance, and it could also be that my RC scores are poor and that having 2 LR sections offset my overall score. Any thoughts on this? Should I stick to 3-section PTs as a more accurate measure of my scoring which seems like the right move?

Further, is there a way convert my score from LawHub into 7sage to reflect both a full-length PT AND a flex-pt with 3 sections? I would like to see how my score would be scored as a 3-section PT in addition to the conversion I made from into 7sage from LawHub as a length PT if that makes any sense.

On another note for those of you who would like to share their feedback, being that my scoring in RC is subpar, should I spend extra time working on RC or solidify my LR which is my 2nd best section after LG? Looking to yield the most points before November, obviously ;)

Thanks 7sagers!

Just finished the November lsat flex.

I got LR-RC-LG. LR was very easy and it’s probably like something in the 60s. RC was just brutal, and I feel it’s even harder than the October’s RC. LG was always my best section (average about -0 or -1), but this time I just feel really bad. I don’t know if it’s because LG was the lsat section or what, but I just could not make any useful inferences at all.

I got 161 in the October test and I’m wondering if I should cancel this test or not.

should I just use the 161 to apply my safe schools and retake in January?

Anyone have any tips on how to approach these? Are they essentially just MSS questions?

Hey all,

Like many, I've doing a number of PTs and find that parallel flaw questions are my weakest point in LR.

I was wondering if anyone had advice about when to use mapping on parallel flaw questions vs. when to intuit the flaw and answer choice match?

For example, I've just completed PT 53, and JY uses a conditional map for Question 21 Section 1. I realized after watching JY's explanation that trying to reason through or intuit this flaw would have been rather futile.

However, on the same PT—Question 13 Section 3, JY reasons through the flaw in his explanation. His explanation was great (it was a part relating to whole flaw) but I'm not confident in my ability to know when to use reason and when to use maps.

If anyone who is proficient at Parallel Flaw questions could share language cues or other details they use to know when maps are optimal and when they should reason through the question, I would really, really appreciate them!

Thanks so much, *also my first 7Sage post.

Hey all-

I've just jumped down the rabbit hole of attempting to calculate my "academic summary index" score. For anyone who is unfamiliar with what I'm referring to, view it here: https://www.lsac.org/key-online-academic-summary-report?access-code=academic-summary.

2 questions: 1) once my LSAT score is made available, will the LSAC actually make my score visible to me for me to check? The website says students can write in if they find errors, but I'm not sure where to look to confirm my info is accurate. 2)I'm an undergraduate admissions officer currently, and I understand pretty well how these algorithms are generated. I'm wondering if anyone else can speak to how any given schools weighs this data? From my best guess crunching some numbers, it seems to me that every school is ultimately going to consider admission for a student who has a calculated score of (0.0.(/p)

If anyone can provide clarity, it'd be greatly appreciated!

ucla has a disadvantage or disability statement option.

should i submit my diversity statement as an optional addendum? 7sage says not to send ucla a diversity statement unless it’s about disadvantage or disability.

i’m pretty confused as to why ucla doesn’t want to consider the widely recognized forms of diversity, more specifically- my religion
