I’m looking for someone who lives relatively near Rowland heights California who is willing to meet with me at the local library to study at least once a week. Im also willing to commute to Orange County if necessary. I’m scoring in the low 160’s so would like someone scoring in the high 160’s or 170?

I’m specific about the score requirement because I have studied with someone who has the same score as I had and we had the same questions

Hi,

I am looking for productive people who are willing to study with me in the Metropolitan Area via in person or online. If that's you, then lets make our DREAMS come true!

Can we lay the tablet flat on the desk/table? It makes a big difference for me in reading comprehension.

I am taking the LSAT in February and could use a study partner to help get ready for this bastard of a test.

Post your suggestions below ; here’s one of my favourites

Looking for a study buddy to check-in with, review learned material and schedule practice tests as well. I am pretty early in CC but I will be focusing on completing by august. Please respond to post if interested!

I am retaking the LSAT in December and was wondering what everyone is doing for their drill work. I am basically going to drill full sections and review them and find out what my weaknesses are. Any advice?

I am curious to know if any study groups have formed in Lubbock, TX for the February 2015 LSAT?

Hi all,

So I'm drilling a lot of LR timed sections using early PTs (10-20s) because I've kind of burned through the 40s and 50s repeatedly and I want to save the 60s onwards for full, fresh tests. Other than the two for one question-stimulus questions, I feel like once or so per section there's a misc. question stem (e.g. 13.4.17, 13.2.25).

I was just wondering, how common are these misc. question stems in the newest tests? I've done a few PTs in the 60s and 70s and remember there being fill in the blank questions, but nothing quite like this? I was just wondering whether or not these have made a comeback in any way, or if I should just ignore them.

My second question for high scorers in LR, what is your mindset like while taking a section? Currently, I'm experimenting with the balance between making myself go faster/stay on task, and staying calm enough to process everything yet not go too slow. Do you guys tend to lean in either direction? I know it's personal, but just curious.

Thanks!

if only constitutes sufficient right? lol

I've been fluctuating anywhere from 158 to 165. I recently scored 165 on test number 60 (the last one I took). I was feeling pretty happy with the improvement I made (diagnostic 154). But I just took the 72 and bombed back down to the 158. I know a lot of people said at first when they hit the 70s, their scores went down. But I honestly can't see why I would have such a massive 7 points down as I really didn't find the fundamentals between the 2 tests that different. Any encouragement or thoughts on this would be helpful. Has anyone seen this happen to them?

Also if you're wondering why I'm skipping around numbers it's because I give my friend a number range and just have her pick one. :)

Hey everyone,

So I went through the CC awhile ago probably a few months ago ( I've been reviewing it since ) and also have a book by the Princeton review that I'm using for RC/LR . -called cracking the lsat

Logic games is def. my area of weakness - I'm trying to work on that right now, but wanted to fool proof Lr and rc as I thought I was getting the hang of it.

I'm focusing more on review than PT's that's for sure -I've probably done about 5/6ish PT.

For LR , I'm getting about 13/14 right on each section and that hasnt changed much even though I'm studying.

Rc- really goes up low of 14, high of 18/19

I'm aiming for 150's /mid 150's (pref). Target - 155

I began with high 130s before 7sage- mid 140's - then high 140's, and I've gotten one with 152 (untimed).

But now my score is sitting in that plateau area and I don't know if it's moving fast enough to consistently get in the 155 area timed and on test day.

I study about 5-6 days a week , for about 5 hours give or take. (starting mid may) started studying for lsat mid jan (but that was when I was working) so I didn't get that much studying done. Right now I'm doing about 1 pt a week, reviewing the pt and then reviewing CC.

Now I'm doing timed PT .

Taking the july lsat, how many PTS should I be doing a week , timed/untimed - all timed from now on ?

After every pt I go through it and look at areas of weakness.

Not sure if it's just anxiety/ mind set OR if I'm missing an important step. How did you all study coming up to the LSAT ?

Evening everyone!

I'm Alexandra. I'm looking for serious study buddies for the Feb 2015. I've been studying while working full time but I need accountability and help with logic games (specifically). Any people interested in the study group can email me at alexandra.k.griffiths@gmail.com.

P.S. I live in Queens and work in Brooklyn. Again, serious inquiries ONLY!! Thank you! :)

Has anyone or is anyone taking the March exam at Lehigh? I wanted to go and take a PT there but no one seems to know anything about the lsat. Anyway, they told me that there is no place for me to take a PT but she didn't seem quite sure herself. If anyone has any info on the test center can you share your experience?

Proctors: Somewhat strict. Had three proctors just for my room. They spoke among themselves during the test taking.

Facilities: Very old and not conducive for test-taking. Had a small lecture hall desk that could barely fit the materials and my pencils, watch, etc. Needed to use the desk next to me for most items.

What kind of room: Old-school science lecture hall

How many in the room: 50+

Desks: See above

Left-handed accommodation: Yes

Noise levels: Bells were ringing from the main campus throughout the test

Parking: N/A

Time elapsed from arrival to test: About an hour? There were a lot of people at this center and it took time to split the group up into smaller groups and get situated in the test taking room.

Irregularities or mishaps: The bells on campus were weird

Other comments: No

Would you take the test here again? No

Date[s] of Exam[s]: December 2014

I'm retaking the LSAT after a year of putting it on the shelf. I self-studied the first time mainly through the Powerscore books, but wasn't satisfied with my score, so I'm taking a year to do it again, this time through a 7sage prep course. If anyone is in OC and would be down to get together every now and then to study, let me know! Or even if you're not, but are open to hashing out questions online.

Hey 7sagers,

I hope everyone is rocking their LSAT studying today.

I am sure a lot of you are super ambitious and zealous like me when creating your daily LSAT study plans. I am not sure if many of you experience this – but I need some advice. How do you know that you are creating a daily schedule/plan that is doable? For example, one day you plan out that you are going to do 5 LG and 1 set of RC practice questions and unfortunately you are only able to complete 3 LG games. Do you the next day just complete the work that you did not do from the previous day or do you move on with your next day study plan?

For me some days – I am really on my game and complete my daily study goals. However, other days’ certain questions take me so long because I am really trying to make sure that the answer choice I choose is 100% correct. This gets me a little bit freaked out as you feel that you are just falling behind with your studying. I do not know about you all – but I hate that feeling!

If you have gone through this and have any tips on overcoming this – please let me know.

Thanks in advance and have an amazing day peeps!

If you are in the Orange County area, preferably in Yorba Linda, Anaheim Hills, Irvine, or Fullerton, and would like a study buddy, please get in touch with me. Also, it would be nice if you have not been exposed to PrepTests 62-71, since those are the ones I am about to "indulge" in--and Preptest 73 when 7Sage puts it on sale on Nov 1.

I would love to help you with anything you may have a question on, and likewise, would love to learn anything that you have to teach. I currently get near perfect scores on the games section, do well on the LR sections (usually -3, -4), and am focusing mostly on the RC section, since that is my biggest weakness.

With a group, we can hold ourselves accountable to our study schedule and have fresh eyes to tackle the questions that we missed. Ideally, we will meet up, take a preptest with the 7sage proctor in the background, and then blind review it individually--leaving time to ask questions about the questions that we missed. Or we can split this up to two separate days, day 1: take preptest, day 2: blind review, etc. I am open to suggestions, but would like to get through at least 2 preptests a week.

I completed most of the core curriculum (90% or so) mid way through October and have been taking PT's ever since then. I have taken 20 PT's at this point and plan on taking 13 more before test day in December. I have an average of 169.5 but recently, on my last 10 or so I have averaged a 172 with 3 or 4 scores of 176 and above. I

know I can dominate this test and I have worked very hard up until this point and plan on continuing to work hard, but does anyone have any tips on how to really make sure you dominate on test day? I took the LSAT in June of 2013 and got a 160 (I choked pretty hard), but now I see the test in such a different way and my scores have reflected that. I am confident in my abilities, but has anyone done anything specific to make sure they are ready to perform when it comes to test day?

I am consistently 100% on LG, 3-4 wrong on LR overall, and 3-5 wrong on RC. I still have yet to feel as dominant on RC as I do on LG and LR, but getting to that level seems almost impossible for me right now, I just don't see RC answers as clear cut as other sections. Does anyone have any elite RC tips that can push me up to the level of perfection?

What other things are high scorers doing before test day that help them achieve peak performance on test day? If anyone has any advice on how to push for that 175 + score on test day, feel free to share.

Thanks!

Evidence -> Not Guilt

but now Evidence --> Guilt

Evidence must have changed.

A = B

now A = not B

A has changed.

(Answer B): Train = not Nantes at 11.

But now Train = Nantes at 11

Train has changed

I've been studying on my own with books but I really need to improve on LR to do well in December after bombing Sept. So I new to such terms as drilling and blind review.

I'm living in Jaffa - Tel Aviv right now and taking the test this Monday and hoping against hope that someone out here in the 7sage community is here as well and willing to study with me as I/we prepare this last week.

Good afternoon fellow 7Sagers,

I see a lot of study buddy partnerships and groups being formed in many areas, so I am starting one in the San Fernando Valley! I just recently lost my study buddy whose moving overseas, and it'd be great to study the LSAT together! I have a lot of material including the Powerscore books and all the printed practice materials from Blueprint. I am aiming for a 170+, with my current preptest scores ranging from high 150s to mid 160s. Let me know here if you're interested!

Best regards,

Isaac

What's up guys! After finishing the CC, how did you approach studying for the logical reasoning section? What worked? What didn't work? Thanks in advance.
