Morning everyone–

I am in the process of drafting a diversity statement for my applications, but I am not fully convinced I need to write one. My PS already addresses my religious/racial diversity. My diversity statement would just be highlighting a different aspect of my diversity not mentioned in my PS. I feel as though it would be repetitive to submit both, but I would love to hear y'alls input on this. Thank you in advance!

Dear 7sagers,

So here's my thoughts on my first online format take for the LSAT:

I loved it for LR! It just felt like the process went way smoother and more efficiently. I don't know if it was because I've been drilling and reviewing LR like mad over the past couple of weeks, but nonetheless, the online LR has some evident advantage in my view. First of all, it helps so much that the clock is on your screen. Checking for the time on my analog watch was just a plain damn nuisance for me. Also, not having to transfer your answers on the scan-tron gives me an extra 2-3 minutes to do more questions. Lastly, the online format in terms of pencil vs. mouse/tablet pen, doesn't allow much time to be fixated on labeling. This indirectly forces you to focus on the structure of the argument instead of circling/underling each and every major detail, which was a bad habit for me.

Now for on the contrary, the online format is a freakin' NIGHTMARE for Games! Having to look up and down at the screen between my setup on scratch paper and the test itself on the monitor was unforgiving for me! Right now I usually get through about 3 games; but this time I could barley do ONE! Uggh, I wish LSAC would allow for having a clean paper version of the games to write on, and then transfer your answers on the computer/tablet. How do you all handle Games online? I folded my scratch paper horizontally, with one bigger side for the diagram, and the smaller side for questions. However this didn't help me at all, so I would dearly welcome any and all suggestion on this for me.

For Reading Comp., I still slightly prefer paper, but I believe I'll be able to adjust for online reading. I also believe that the online version, like LR, doesn't allow much time for obsession over labeling, so it forces you to comprehend the structure of the passage, which is what RC is pretty much all about.

PS: I'm registered for the July test, which seems like a WTF that I just now did an online test. However I'm most likely going to cancel and take advantage of the later free test unless I score a 155 or better. So I'd really like those online LG suggestions please!

I had been working from 62-71 for most of my prep this time and had done 29-38 previously. I meant to order 52-61 to use for some drill so I could work on my weaker sections. But I found that I accidentally ordered another volume of 62-71. Would it be better for me to actually use that and retake some sections of PTs I had done, as my original copy is heavily annotated, or to return it and get the volume I meant to have?

does anyone know when this PT will be published?

Hi,

I was doing PT 70 and was wondering,

Do you think section 4 is harder than section1?

I think I had this experience before too...when one of the LR section is relatively easy, the other one is kind of hard...

Is this true? Or am I the only one who felt so?

Hi all,

#help

I’ve been working through MBT/MBF questions and have experienced some difficulties. Namely, the speed that’s required for diagraming every situation. I have a solid understanding of the logic and, during blind review, am able to work my way to the correct answer. However, during a timed test I find it difficult, if not impractical, to completely diagram every stimulus. Has anyone else experienced this issue? Do any of you have strategies that discern when diagraming is necessary and when intuition suffices?

I know this is a speed test, and I’m starting to think that working through the logic of every question sends me down a time drain.

I’d be very grateful to anyone that could share their thoughts on this!!

Thanks :)

Hi,

I'm always confused about these questions. I don't understand if the question is asking you all the potential objects that can belong in the group, or the potential objects in the group in one instance.

For example (Prep Test 43, Question 18): "Which of the following could be a complete and accurate list of each of the office buildings that the falafel tuck serves?"

A. X

B. X, Z

C. X,Y,Z

D. Y,Z

E. Z

A, B, and E can be eliminated based on the fact that the stimulus provides that F must serve Y. The answer is D because the question meant "in one scenario". However, I read it as "all the potential trucks" the Falafel truck could serve. In one possibility, F serves Y,X and in another Y,Z. So potentially, F could serve all 3 leading me to answer choice C.

I'm definitely reading this question wrong. Can someone please explain to me the wording difference between when they ask for all potentials vs. in one possibility?

Thanks a lot to whomever responds.

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!

I posted a question but have now edited it to this as I don't know how to delete it.

To prepare for study abroad, exactly five students- M, N, P, R, and T- will learn at least one of four languages: French, Hindi, Italian, and Spanish. No student learns any other language. The following conditions apply:

No student learns all four languages.

At least two of the students learn French.

Any language that is learned by R is not learned by N.

If French is learned by any student, then that student learns Italian.

If Hindi is learned by any student, then that student learns Spanish.

P learns French.

5.) Which one of the following is a pair of languages that CANNOT both be learned by student R?

a. French and Italian

b. French and Spanish

c. Hindi and Italian

d. Italian and Spanish

e. Hindi and Spanish

Book says D. I say B and C are also possible. The only way those answers don't work is if R no longer has to learn the accompanying language with N still does. It DOES say pair which may mean the rules for him can be broken. If true, this is a thinly veiled modifier that I would probably have gotten wrong, possibly i just have to familiarize myself with this test more.

How do I see what my GPA is on LSAC? I heard that there can be discrepancy between your GPA from your degree granting institution's transcript and any other institutions' transcripts if you took a course there during high school.

So, like many of my fellow 7Sage friends out there I took the September 2018 test and probably went -2 or -3 lower than my average PT score. I already decided to retake weather or not by some chance my actual LSAT score is around my average or even possibly above (by some miraculous act of god). Being entirely open, I suck at RC and my LR is below average. My LG is solid and I feel most confident in this section. My "general" plan is to take about two solid weeks to only do RC. I want to try to do 50-60 RC passages a week during this time and review each thoroughly. After I plan to drill LR for another two weeks and do some RC during this time frame also. I will be around three to four weeks out from test day at this point and plan to PT a few exams and do thorough review generally. I have taken roughly 28-30 PT's already at this point and know how to "flow" through a test and how to handle all the different "situations" that the LSAT can throw; I really am just trying to gather a deeper comprehension at this point. I'm really just trying to see if anyone has any opinions they could throw my way ! Thank you, and good luck to all :)

I don't understand the correct answer for this one at all. Can someone breakdown why all the wrong ones are correct and D is correct? Here is my breakdown:

http://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-65-section-3-passage-3-questions/

Answer A: This is what I picked both times, I don’t really see what’s wrong with it. Doesn’t legally requiring something describe US/Canadian law while not legally requiring it parallel Roman law? To me, this is perfect…

Answer B: Roman law didn’t make anything illegal, so this isn’t it.

Answer C: Roman law didn’t distinguish between legality, so this isn’t it.

Answer D: Completely dumbfounded how this could possibly be the answer. Roman law didn’t make blackmail illegal outright. You had to show harm, and THAT made it illegal. I don’t see how this is analogous to Roman law in the slightest…

Answer E: Higher fines? Roman law didn’t have harsher punishment.

Hi all, I graduated in 2025, worked at a tinyyyy Personal Injury firm for 10 months (under an amazing attorney/leader- and I was very involved in the lifespan of each case). I recently switched (4 months ago) to a very administrative role in big law (supporting an attorney in their day to day tasks). How should I frame this experience for my applications- people tell me to try to get involved in substantive work here and talk ab it in my apps (have been here for short time- and would like to apply in Sept.) idk how to position myself best, and how to make an impact in my apps with my experience ?

Hi everyone,

Do you know someone who overcame significant obstacles to become a lawyer? We'd love to talk to him or her. Email editors@7sage.com and let us know!

Happy studying!

Looking for a group of motivated individuals who want to learn, progress, and prioritize the LSAT. People who can forge together and keep each other accountable on studying and practicing. I graduated from U of M -Dearborn with a BA in English Literature and double Minor in Criminal Justice and Writing. I'd be willing to help with personal statements in our study group as well.

Taking the June LSAT and looking for a study partner

Hello,

My name is Ken Kim. We are a group of Koreans and Korean-Americans planning to take the LSAT either this October or in a couple of years. We have members scoring from 160-175 either on the official test or practice tests. Some of us are committed full-time to the test while some of us are working at a company, law firm, etc. We meet on the following date at the Gangnam station Exit 9 Wing Study Cafe.

2:00 pm-5:00 pm, Sunday

We meet and do problem sets from the 7Sage Core Curriculum. We match our answers and discuss why each one of us have chosen an answer we chose. The fee for joining the study is free other than paying for the studying cafe fee which is 1,900 KRW per person for each hour (5,700 KRW total).

We have about 4-5 regular members joining every consecutive weekend. As for a new member, we accept a non-refundable fee of 5,700 KRW for the first meeting. After that, if the member cancels, we do give a refund for that cancellation. We do not make any profit out of doing this, and the sole purpose of this study meeting is to do LSAT questions and freely exchange ideas about the LSAT, law school admission, and any other matters related to the law school journey.

If you are interested, please send me a message to my inbox. I will direct you further. Thanks!

I need a tutor to improve my LSAT.Thanks !

I'm writing my lsat on Saturday and i keep scoring 4 points below my goal score.

With my gpa, a score of mid 150 would make me competitive for the law school i want to get into.

Currently i keep scoring between 151 to 152.

When i BR my score gets to 155+.

Any last minute tips to help me boost up my score a couple points?

It's really frustrating because everytime I do LR the first time around i get -8 to -11, but when i go back to look at the questions i got wrong, the answers which were my second choice are always right.

And as for LG, I'm doing well in terms of accuracy, however I'm still spending 8.5 min on each game. Which makes it difficult to finish the last most difficult game.

I am going to take the GRE instead of the LSAT and am looking for a study buddy this summer, if anybody is also trying that strategy. I do Skype pretty well.

Has anyone tested at this hotel? Its out of my area so I'm just wondering if anyone has experience here, considering it for July.

Thanks!

Hi, I want to make an actual, active study group. The link is the following: https://groupme.com/join_group/88566845/16xEXYG3

Just copy it. You will have to answer a question of your ideal score to join (this is to deter bots/people who just want to advertise). Please only join if you will be active and have time to study together.

Update: I only have a few requests atm. I will accept everyone when there are a good amount of people.

Anyone willing to review and provide feedback to my personal statement?

Hiyo! Looking for a study buddy in the NE Ohio area. I'll be taking in June. E-mail me at bluesmurf13@gmail.com if you're down. Thanks much!
