Stanford seems to place a lot of value on them. What about H & Y? Other T14 schools?

Thanks!

I'm having problems with must be true question types!

Hi folks,

On average for a single Practice Tests, I will have a combined 5-7 questions marked for BR on Logical Reasoning. I have now reached the point where every single time I mark something for BR, I actually got it right the first time. The good news is that upon BR, I agree with my first answer so at least I am consistent.

The bad news is that every single question I get wrong I don't even mark. So the issue is I that I'm ignorant of what I'm getting wrong. I'm scoring fairly highly (high 160's - low 170s) but this pattern is starting to bother me. Does this mean I am plateau'ing or reaching my ceiling? I will say that most of the time my wrong answers are due to misreading or falling for easy traps that are pretty easily understood once I actually look at the question, granted this is with the hindsight of having seen the answer key and knowing that my answer choice is wrong.

What do you think?

Is back and forth dialog acceptable in a personal statement? If so should it be formatted as normal dialog?

Hey,

Before confirming for CAS, Step 1 is to "Enter Institutions Attended," and one of the fields requires you to enter in your email address. When I start applying for schools, would that email address be shown to them?

I am going to have a more professional email (IE: First and Last name) address on my resume, but the one that I have under CAS is my gmail one. (It is nothing embarrassing, like the one that Gronk (Patriots' TE) used to have, which is chickslayer69@yahoo.com)

Thanks!

Hey Feb Peeps! I know the test is this week, but we got work to do!

I’ll be there for PT 58, after I stop by at the Pep Rally!

Be sure to click the link of the conversation you’re attending and announce in the comments which group(s) you’re planning on attending.

Note:

I get why (E) is the answer here, there's a flaw between the premise and sub-conclusion. Just because a majority are unaware doesn't necessarily mean they disprove of the attempt.

But I'm having a tough time eliminating (D). If we just isolate the sub-conlusion (premise) and main conclusion we get: Since a majority of them obviously disapprove of THE attempt, graduate students at this university should not unionize. Ok, so they disapprove of THIS attempt, but isn't there the possibility that they may want to unionize for other reasons, which is what (D) says? Or maybe I'm just reading this wrong. Any help woulf be greatly appreciated!

hello,

I took the diagnostic test, but I realized that I couldn't understand the passage.. What can I do to understand/comprehend?

Hi everyone! I feel like I heard someone mention in the comments or maybe in the 7sage podcast that there is a way to foolproof LR, but I can't remember where I heard that or how to do it. Does anyone have any ideas?

Don’t wait to hit the 70s in January! Be prepared!

Looking for study parteners

Hey guys,

I was just looking for some specific PTs, mainly the newer ones, that are available for download and discovered that Cambridge is still licensed to sell PDFs of every PT. They also have some awesome Bundles including one for all Logic Games from PTs 1-70 for $90 (instead of $295 for purchasing them separately). If you don't need all of those but want to do JY's method for the games using PTs 1-35/38 they also have a bundle for that, which is only $42.

Just wanted to share this since I was driving myself crazy using the copy machine every time I wanted to make extra copies for a game from one of the 10 Actuals books I have, which incidentally don't include PTs 1-6, 8 or 17.

Hope this helps!

Happy studies :)

Fine Print (NOTE: you all want to be lawyers; reading fine print is what lawyers do, so READ IT!)

BR GROUP NOTES:

This recently tripped me up...

But just wondering what words or phrases in an RC passage would indicate that an author is neutral towards a particular subject/theory etc.

Hi Sages,

I have a doubt regarding the order in which we should drill reading comprehension passages. Should we segregate easy, medium,hard passages from PT 1-35 ? Then first drill all the easy passages then move on to the medium level passages then finally take up hard passages ?What can be pros and cons of such a order? Pls advice. Thanks.

Hope everyone had a wonderful Christmas!!!!

LSAT Party time, that is!

EVERYBODY GETS A GOTOMEETING! YAY!!!

Please click the link and comment if you plan on participating.

Note:

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.

Hi Folks:

There's a good group of us 7 SAGERS who joined a whatsapp group chat. We're trying to organize a study group session for this Sunday, February 17th (5PM EST) on Skype.

The Idea behind the session will be a post Blind Review of PT 76 where we come together as a group to discuss questions we are having trouble with even after completing a blind review on our own.

I will also be hosting a bit of a review on the Strengthening/Justify the conclusion/Sufficient Assumption, Necessary Assumption Question types that appear on the LR as well there will be time set aside afterwards to discuss general issues/concerns we may be facing about the LSAT and the Law School application process.

I have posted the skype link below if you wish to join.

The Group Chat has been busy and I find it's a good way to stay motivated, share tips and just keep sane. Preparing for this test can be difficult so why not share the pain :P

Hey everyone,

Hope everyone's grey day went well! Although I appreciate getting the score before the holidays, that does mean that I have less time to work on some of the school specific optional essays. I'm wondering if anyone would want to team up over these next couple of weeks and work on editing each other's optional essays/keep each other on track? It would probably work best if they were the same schools & I'll be working on essays for most of the T-14 over the next couple weeks.

Let me know if this sounds interesting to you!

PT47 BR Tonight at 8pm EST

Another week, another Wednesday: perfect opportunity to join our group BR session over Skype for some:

1) Fun

2) Friends

3) Facts

4) Flaws

5) Flan*

*Note: This is a BYOF or "bring your own flan" event. No flan will be transmitted through the intertubes.

LOOK AT HOW AMAZING THAT IS.

Note on all groups

I'm looking for anyone who is willing to help me out! However, it would be great to have a Skype Buddy who rocks at LR. I'm really good at games. I rarely miss a game question. So if you're good at LR and suck at games maybe we can help each other.

Thanks!

But I was under the impression that conditional statements are not comparisons. I read the first sentence as a comparison and therefore ignored it since I did not read it as a conditional statement. How should I have broken down the first sentence to see the conditional?
