Well i speedran through the cc and the variety in the number of questions was initially pretty difficult for me to properly adjust to, given that the methods listed in the cc are somewhat distinct from each other. I tried a section and struggled. However, now that I consciously take note of the main point, premise, and maybe some implied basis for support, the questions just seem to be going right for me. I'm still not where I want to be, but it's a start. Has anyone else been where I am? If so, has this method of just having an insane focus on the mp, premise, and support been of greater use to you than using conditional logic, especially in questions where it gets particularly tricky to use cl?

Hey guys, is anyone willing to look over the first draft of my personal statement? I just want to make sure I'm heading in the right direction. Willing to do a swap if needed! Thanks!

Is a writing board allowed for the online LSAT (just a wooden/plastic board to place the scratch paper on), most table surfaces aren't conducive to placing the paper directly on them and writing on the same. I have mailed LSAC but just wanted to know if anyone who has taken the online LSAT has used it or has been asked by the Proctor not to use it?

When i use scratch paper on the test am i able to quickly write down, For example, lists of sufficient and necessary condition indicators? since it is my own paper and have to go in with it blank anyway i would assume i can write down whatever is in my mind at the strat but would like clarification.

i struggle remember indicator words when under time crunch but if i get them on paper in the start from memory, is this ok?

Hi all,

I am still waiting to hear back from a couple of schools, I applied end of December/early January. With deposit deadlines coming up/some already passed I believe sufficient time has gone by. I have seen mixed advice online whether or not to send a LOCI before you hear back at all.

Is it inappropriate to send a short email reiterating my interest and commitment to the school?

Thank you!

September retaker here - my average was in the mid 160s (Feb. 2014, studied by taking all PTs 40 onward, doing the 7Sage Logical Reasoning curriculum, and looking at 7Sage Logic Game explanations) and I'm hoping to break 170 this coming fall!

I'm looking for a study buddy in the Madison area who would be interested in meeting up about once a week for 1-2 hours to talk over pesky questions that keep bothering us even after we pore over them. I had a study buddy in Houston for the Feb. test, and it worked out wonderfully between us - we turned out to be great resources for each other throughout the studying process. I'm hoping to find a great study buddy here in Madison as well!

Anyway, please message me if you're at all interested; I'd love to hear about your progress and would be more than happy to do a number exchange!

I just took the Feb 1997 PT (my second one ever), and got what I feel is a very unusually high score. I noticed this test is not numbered consistently with the others and that 7sage placed it right after the end of the CC. Is this test just unusually easy or not representative of other PTs? I'm just curious as to why it is set apart/not used in the CC given how old it is.

Is it alright to give examples that are not stated in the prompt to support your ideas? I completed writing PT 82 about the filmmaker, and I found myself talking a little bit about creativity and potential advertising opportunities instead of focusing solely on the furnishings of the locations.

During my senior year in undergrad, I was reported for academic dishonesty (plagiarism). I previously had a class with the professor that reported me and I got an A in his class, which is why I was surprised that he thought I plagiarized. The professor said it was a minor case of plagiarism because I did not paraphrase adequately in certain parts of my final essay. I met with the dean and I ultimately admitted to plagiarism and I got a deferred suspension (which is just fancy language for a warning). The dean said that I had to attend an avoiding plagiarism workshop before graduation so that's what I did. I asked the dean if something like this would appear on my transcript and she said that UCLA (the uni I attended) does not make a notation on the transcript but it holds a separate records that are confidential. She said the records would not be released to law schools without their request and my authorization. I ultimately got an A- in that class.

So what should I do? Does attending a workshop like this count as disciplinary action? Is a warning all that bad? And will law schools see that something like this happened through the LSAC CAS report?

LSAT Practice

Hi guys, I am just starting out I finished the argument section under foundation but I need to know when I should start to do actual practice tests... Because I am only learning but not experiencing it. Any tips would be great.

I'm trying to working on my LG weaknesses using the LSAT analytic feature and one area that could use improvement is "Sequencing w/ conditional rules." Is there a list anywhere the groups Sequencing games by whether or not they have conditional rules? I've gone through all of the LG offered in my syllabus and I only see them listed as "Sequencing," "Spatial Sequencing," "Sequencing with a Twist" and "Sequencing and Grouping." Thanks in advance for any suggestions!

I was wondering how many of those who are studying for the LSAT i.e. law school bound who have not been/are not active job seekers have a LinkedIn account.

I'm a college grad and I don't have an account. I thought I wouldn't derive much benefits from LinkedIn until I get to law school and deactivated my previous one since I didn't use it much.

Do you guys have a LinkedIn account? Should I get one again?

I am wondering if any of you have any recommendations for daily or weekly activities, aside from LSAT specific studying, to help get in the LSAT state of mind. I know reading complex passages from certain publications is often recommended and some even recommend courses in logic. I do not plan on taking the LSAT for quite a while and would like to use all the resources I have at my disposal.

Hey guys!Itook the test January last year and I have basically forgotten everything and I would like to take the test again in 2026. Wold like to have an accountabiity group where we can keep each other in check and study and drill together! Let me know if anyone is interested!

I’m deep into the PT and drilling phase of my LSAT prep and have hit a wall trying to navigate the tag system in 7Sage’s analytics. Is there a centralized resource that explains each tag and links to the corresponding lesson or video for review?

I came across Albert Gauthier’s July 2024 blog post titled "New LR Tags in 7Sage," which was super helpful, but it only covers the new LR tags and doesn’t include links to explanation videos for most sections.

Right now, I’m working through my high-priority areas, but I’m getting increasingly frustrated trying to figure out what each tag even means and what lessons I should revisit.

Does a full tag reference guide exist anywhere on 7Sage? If so, where can I find it? If not, can this be something the 7Sage team prioritizes adding? It feels like such a crucial tool to help make targeted studying easier and make the analytics section more worthwhile.

Thanks in advance!
