When doing parallel flaw questions, if the stimulus contains "some," will there ever be a correct parallel flaw answer choice that contains "most" instead of "some"? Or are the two situations different enough that you'll never see a correct parallel flaw with the word "most" in it?

Thanks!!!

Anyone from the Ottawa area? I want to start studying with people.

Hey all I'm looking to start up a study group my diagnostic is 154 currently in the high150s to middle 160s. Aiming to hit high 160s mid 170s and looking for people with similar targets. Mostly once a week meet up online with possibly more if schedules allow. I'd be happy to set up a discord or groupme depending on what everyone wants. If you are interested please lmk.

Hi guys,

After finishing the CC and taking a few practice tests, I decided that I'll need to slow down and first drill individual LR question types before diving into more full PTs. I've been using the question bank and doing individual questions timed then leaving one full 35 minute section of JUST that one problem type to do. Afterwards I review the questions. But I still find that I'm struggling and average -8 per section, section of just one problem type that is (which i feel like shouldn't be happening cause I literally did just so many of the SAME question type). I'm wondering how you guys went about this? How did you drill Q types for LR? What helped?

Thanks so much!

What are your guys thoughts on prep-tests do you think its more worthwhile to do the whole prep-test or to do the Flex? And on a different note could you burn yourself out by doing too many tests in a short period of time? Would love to hear some others thoughts. Thanks in advance!

Hello,

I am new to 7sage and plan on writing the november 2020 LSAT. I am looking for some guidance or precedence on how to effectively use the study schedule provided by 7sage. Currently, If I begin tomorrow, the recommended hours per week are 46 and that seems to be quite a bit. If that is not doable, are there any suggestions on how to make my own schedule?

Hi,

I applied to a school before getting my LSAT score. I was wondering if anyone had any experience with how long it usually takes for LSAC to send your completed report to schools?

Thanks!

Hi all,

So I have withdrawn from April test and plan to take in June -- but my April LSAT writing is still live.

Anyone know if I will need to cancel this separately, or if I can just take it whenever I want between now and June? I'll reach out to LSAC on monday but wondering if anyone has encountered similar thing for Flex. Thnx

I am completely underwater with this section, I don't get it at all. I have review the lessons and still don't understand and now looking online. Any tips? Please help

Taking in March, would like to do some BR sessions by phone up to the test. Any takers? I'm in the Eastern time zone.

Hi All!

I am preparing my application materials for the upcoming cycle including various essays (personal statement, etc.). I noticed that there is a compiled list on 7Sage of the required/optional application materials for schools. However, for some schools there are optional essay topics listed that aren't listed on the schools' websites (ex: Cornell). I was wondering if that means that there are questions that we only have access to after the application cycle begins.

Thanks in advance!

Also this is the link to the application components site (https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/lesson/application-requirements-for-top-schools/#Harvard%20University)

How do you guys take notes for 7Sage? I do have a wrong answer journal that I use when BR'ing drills, but besides that how do you guys take notes for the lectures? I've kind've just been going through and listening, but dont want to not soak anything in by just watching the videos. Any tips would help!

Hi there! I am currently scheduled to take the August LSAT flex (it is now spread out over a week) and signed up for one on September 2nd. I know that typically you have until the day before the LSAT to drop out, but since this one was supposed to be on August 29th, I was wondering if anyone knew if I had to drop by the 28th or if I could drop on September 1st. Thank you!

I have a question about what you guys do after a PT in regards to your wrong LR answers. I know a lot of people do wrong answer journals which seems like a great idea, but I was wondering what exactly those who do that write down for each wrong question. Do you go over each answer choice and write out an explanation? What made you pick that specific wrong answer? etc. A lot of people have said this led to lots of improvement and I am hoping someone could explain what has worked and helped them. Thanks!

I marked this as a time-change flaw because it seems as though the author is using the past to predict the future. Does anyone else feel like it would be fair/correct to call it a time-change flaw? Obviously E is also an attractive answer since you cannot fully isolate the variables involved in preventing nuclear war, but aren't you simply supposed to assume that the information in the stimuli is correct and mostly valid when dealing with flaw questions?

looking for people who plan to Study Group Online together no test date just to study

Proctors: Laid back and professional. Although, for one of the sections they forgot to call out the 5 minute warning... good thing I had my watch.

Facilities: Clean, comfortable, easily accessed. I walked from my apartment but there are parking facilities on campus so driving shouldn't be difficult. Brought a sweater but didn't need it -- comfortable temperature.

What kind of room: Lecture hall.

How many in the room: 30-40

Desks: Long tables. We were spaced about two chair lengths apart.

Left-handed accommodation: N/A but wouldn't have been a problem since it was tables not desks.

Noise levels: There was camp for young kids going on next door and they were incredibly loud but none of the sound came through the walls. We could only hear it during the break and beforehand.

Time elapsed from arrival to test: 30 minutes.

Would you take the test here again? Oh hell yeah. Ideal conditions in my opinion.

Date[s] of Exam[s]: June and July 2018.

I recently completed the core curriculum and decided to take PT 36 completely untimed. I scored a 172, and although I know this is not indicative how I will perform under actual testing conditions, does anyone have tips on how to improve timing? I am aiming to hit the 170+ range timed by the end of August (not sure if this is reasonable).

Hi All! I will be taking the writing portion this week, is there any recs on how to tackle this part of the exam?

Hi folks,

I've started to blind review with the practice tests, and I'm a bit confused on what PTs to blind review with. I've done the first 4 PTs, and they're going well, but I've heard that the later, more recent PTs are more representative of the question types and difficulty I could expect on test day. Does anyone have any thoughts as to whether to start at the very beginning of the tests, or to jump ahead and start PT'ing with the more recent tests? Thank you so much!

1. How far back is safe for me to take real LSATs? A little bit ago I read somewhere that anything before 40 is too different and can throw you off slightly. Spare me the preferences c-rap unless its insightful. Obviously there are obvious pros and cons to taking them all or just taking the last 30 for accuracy. I just want to know when the major changes in the test occurred. Thanks :)

2. People be crazy on here, studying for a year plus (aka I'm jealous of your planning and dedication and determination). I'll be putting in 4 months total, three months super serious like 50 hours a week minimum. I fully expect to get a 170+. I don't believe in PTing until I've finished all my coursework (Trainer, 2 Powerscores, and Cambridge drills 40 - 61, so I can't back this claim up whatsoever. After I finish I'll be doing at least 51-73/74 PTs, and probably 10 hours with a tutor. (Yes, I am totally fine with doing a PT a day). My point is this: Don't believe the gentle haters that so politely tell you can't or that you need more time. You got this, I got this. Watch a shia labeouf satire video and read a quote about persistence and necessary failure.

3. twoscoopsofpoop, seriously. I'm bearded balding overweight and I've accomplished all this at only 20. I'm totes down to study anything in the trainer now, or powerscores and PT/BR (not sure what BR means) starting Friday. Have a nice day, smiley face.

Hey,

I'm looking to get a study group together for the November LSAT in Austin, Texas. If you are in Austin and studying for the LSAT, let me know!

Biologist's argument: DF (deforestation continues at its present pace) -> KAE (the koala will approach extinction)

Politician's argument: /DF (stop deforestation) -> /KAE (save the koala)

So the politician's argument is a mistaken negation of the biologist's argument.

(A) is wrong because we do not know whether deforestation continues at its "present pace" so we do not know whether this is consistent with the biologist's claim.

(B) is right because even though deforestation is stopped, the koala could go extinct because deforestation could have stopped as a result of complete destruction of forests.

(C) is wrong because no one talks about reforestation.

(D) is wrong because it is consistent with the politician's argument rather than the biologist's

(E) is wrong because the biologist's argument says that the koala does not approach extinction only if deforestation does not continue at its present pace

Is my explanation correct for this question? Could anyone add explanation for this question? Thanks
