(I repost this monthly 😅)

Hi all! Just wanted to share this Discord again for anyone that is interested in finding active LSAT Discords.

We got a lot of people studying for the June and August and beyond (but also just starting 7Sage curriculum), so if you are in search of an active group, study buddies, or just have questions about the LSAT, please feel free to join. 💙☺️

So far I am grateful for all the support people give to one another on here, and want to share it again in the hopes that more people can benefit from it.

Let me know if the link isn't working (🥲 last time it expired or something)

Thank you!

How can I properly drill my LR. Should I go up in difficulty as time goes on, or should I mix the difficulty up? Should I focus on one question type at a time, or should I again mix up the question types. When should I do full sections timed? For context, I have been studying for over a year now and have already taken the exam with LG games, Now trying one last time either September or October.

Just took a practice test and proceeded to the Blind Review after.

How representative is the score of the Blind Review to my overall success of taking that PT? Should I expect growth to that score?

Was there a separate session on embedded conditional reasoning?

Just took PT 84 - wondering if anyone found the LR kind of weird? Not hard per se, but for example PT 84 S2 Q2 (an NA) was more of a soft NA answer? They are usually a lot more clear. Idk maybe I’m just being picky but I found there were a couple questions where the answers were a lot more subtle to me.


Anyways, onto PT 84 S2 Q11

I knew AC was right but crossed it off because I thought it attacked a premise. Looking back it appears I misread the stimulus.

The premise says: “Many features ..." Admin Note: I deleted the premise and Answer Choice C as it is against our Forum Rules to post LSAT questions on the Forum.

And AC C says: "Excessive blinking ..."


I thought that the stimulus read “excessive blinking is not such a feature of confidence” (rather than saying "blink rate is not a feature")

My question is, if it had said what I thought it said, would AC C have been an attack on the premise like I thought it was?

Hi, just wondering...How is 40s different from 50s, 60s, or 70s?

Do each 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s have different features?

Especially about LR...

Thank you

Anyone open to trade? I'm aiming for T14

Hello everyone, just wanted to see if there are people in the Sarasota area that would want to connect and study together. I take the April LSAT but depending on how well it goes, I might have to take it again in June. I'm a little too inconsistent on my practice exams and would like to work with different people and learn how they approach different questions. Also, I am currently in Gainesville for school but will be back in Sarasota in like 2-3 weeks.

Hello,

I did not choose A (the correct answer) in this question because I thought "specific examples" was incorrect given the fact that the passage did not raise any plural nouns and actually seemed quite general to describe their examples. Can someone explain why the examples raised in the passage count as "specific examples"?

Thanks!

What does 1 on 1 tutoring do for one's score/test strategy? At what point and how would one decide its worth the expense?

I just finished the core curriculum and took my first practice test. 163 but aiming for 170+. Struggled with LR (-9). Now I plan to go through the rest of the practice tests (37-present).

I'm curious what sort of gains other people have made since their first post-cc practice test.

Thank you very much in advance!

I was just looking at the explanations for some of the logic games from preptests in the mid 60s and saw how there's been a trend in the last few years of emphasizing the use of xor/exclusive or/negated biconditional in logic games (a is before b or before c but not before both). Since I don't have access to the very most recent preptests (2012-2014), I was wondering if there have been any other such changes to question patterns or emphasis on the LSAT, particularly in LG. Anyone have any thoughts?

Is it possible to enable analytics for problem sets?

Is there a way to create a problem set based on a specific type of RC question? Based on my trends I need to work on meaning of phrase in context and application of hypothetical situations. Is it possible to create questions sets with that filter or are RC problem sets simply based on full passages.

I am looking for an accountability partner from now until the April LSAT. I want someone who is planning to apply early for Fall 2022, has been studying for the test for a while, is aiming for a T10 law school, wants a 170+, and wants to get this thing over with by the middle of this year. I prefer someone who is weaker on LG (no specific limit here) but stronger on LR and RC (-2 to 4 range) so we can complement each other. I am breaking even on all sections but while I can mostly figure out my errors for LG by myself, I often can't do so with LR and RC. My highest PT was a 168 and I am looking to break into the 170s. If you are interested, please PM me, not comment. We can meet once a week through zoom or maybe even more depending on how things go and I honestly just want another human by my side through all this because this test material is very dry to say the least

Hi,

can someone explain why certain lessons are marked on 7sage as optional? I just started the core curriculum. I saw that the first 'optional' one was a cute story/ anecdote and skipping would be fine as it had no bearing on understanding content, but now I'm at the second optional lesson entitled ' For, since, because' and IM confused why it says optional. Does it cover it alter? is it not necessary for LSAT? I'm going to listen to it, but its throwing me off and if someone can please explain why its marked that way it would help.

Thanks!

Hi everyone! Like many people recommend, I have been saving the most recent PT's for my study sessions closer to the real LSAT exam. I understand that the newer practice tests shouldn't be (or, subjectively they shouldn't be) more difficult, but I am noticing that I am really struggling with them! So far I have taken a few in the 70's and a few in the 80's. My scores have been significantly lower. Has anyone noticed that they are having issues as well? I know there truly are very subtle differences, but I'm just not too sure how to adjust my studying accordingly. Does anyone have any advice for how to approach these newer tests?

7Sage Website Gods,

I love being able to take the PT1-35 LG sections timed and then easily check answers after BRing them by clicking on Resources > Logic Game Explanations.

I would love to be able to do the same thing as I work on LR sections from those same tests. I have the questions already, but to find answers, I have to "score" a PT for the relevant test, then find the question explanation links, then afterwards delete the "scored" PT from my history so it doesn't throw off my analytics.

Any chance you could add a page that would only be visible based on your membership level, and that is formatted like the LG Explanations page, but for LR questions?

If such a resource already exists, or there is an easier way than my current solution, and I just haven't found it, could you point me in the right direction?

Many thanks,

-Joe

Hey guys I'm looking for people to study with in the Atlanta area! I live in Gainesville but have no problem commuting somewhere to study with a group of like-minded individuals! If interested let me know!

Hey everyone, I couldn't find info about this online, so I figured I'd ask on here. I went to an undergraduate institution for a semester and ended up withdrawing from all of my classes (pretty sure it was non-punitive). Would I be required to include this transcript on my Lsac gpa? I was wondering because I did not end up earning any credits there. Thanks in advance!

Hi All. I have two questions:

(1) Roughly when did the important distinguishing features of newer logical reasoning questions become the norm? I'm thinking in particular about longer and tougher stems, more frequent strengthen/weaken/RRE questions, less frequent formal logic questions, and generally trickier answer choices?

(2) In these newer LR sections, are the toughest questions typically found between questions #11 and 20? Or are 21-26 generally harder? Or has it gotten more random?

I've been largely following the "save the best for last" approach in my studying thus far, and so have only recently moved from tests #20-45 or so to more recent tests. Recently, I've begun alternating between tests near #80 and closer to the 50s, and plan to keep doing so. Today, though, I took my first test in the 50s (#55) after taking a couple near #80, and the LR sections felt much closer to the old style I'd been used to than the new style I'd seen in #78 and #80---in particular I noticed more formal logic, and that the hardest questions were located near the end rather than the late-middle. So I'm wondering what to expect. Roughly when did the shift that happened between early and late tests occur, and how accurate is my sense (partially based on some article I now can't find) that the newer sections have harder questions towards the late-middle?

Can someone please nudge me in the right direction with my personal statement? Mine centers around an event that had a significant impact on me in college. I included elements to give the reader a sense of who I am and how I think, but only one or two paragraphs directly address why I want to pursue law school. If you need more details feel free to message me! Thank you for any advice or feedback. :)

I feel like in the last two months alone, 7Sage has introduced new tags (especially for LR) out of blue? While I appreciate the ability for more detailed analysis, it's a bit anxiety-inducing to discover there's a new dimension on this test that I need to master. How often does 7Sage add/discover tags?

Looking for people to study in 209 area

Is anyone studying in Seoul around Gangnam interested in making a study group? I'm planning on taking the March/April LSAT for the second time if anyone wants to kill this exam together, lots of study cafes here to take PT's/BR at
