I’m currently at 151, is it possible to get to 160 for September test?

Hey so as the title says, I'm looking for a study partner.

I ask for the higher score because I think it'd be nice to study with someone that has a better understanding than you. This doesn't necessarily mean I am looking for a free tutor or something though - I've actually got a tutor from TLS I'll be working with soon (and have worked with in the past). I've been studying for a while now, my last PT was 156 and this was months ago, during my school semester. I studied a lot during my last summer and into my school semester a bit (wanted to take in december) but didn't quite get the score I wanted on PT's so didn't bother writing in addition to getting caught up with school work that took precedent over LSAT studying so I did what I could to maintain.

I am again however, hoping to write in december. I think this time will be a lot better for me since I don't have to spend a most of my time figuring out what the hell I was doing in the first place, and can spend these months drilling - which is where the partner comes in. I think it'd be good for things such as LR (over skype) or discussing general strategies for the test.

If anyone scoring well would be interested, just reply below.

Is there a place where I can find all the pdf files so I can print out them all at once. Sometimes I am studying at the library where I don't have access to a printer.

Anyone in the phoenix metro area looking for a study partner? I'm taking full prep tests and would like to swap explanations for the questions we get wrong.

December Test Takers! This is it! This is what you’ve all been waiting for! One last BR and then on Saturday, it’s game on!

My advice: taper down on effort. You don’t necessarily have to do nothing this week (especially LG. Use it or lose it), but this week should require less effort from you than the past 10 weeks have. In other words, don’t do 5 PTs this week. And if you can, don’t look at the score of any PTs you take this week. Confidence is so important for the LSAT, and you don’t want yours wrecked by one stupid score. Just take the PT and BR and then have fun discussing the test in a BR group. And that leads into the last piece of advice for this week: Have fun and remember this Saturday’s test is just PT 77. That’s it! Best of luck to all of you!

Hope to see tutors, mentors, and friends (maybe Mike Kim again :) ) at the Pep Rally. Show your support even if you aren’t taking it this Saturday!

Be sure to announce in the comments which group(s) you’re planning on attending.

Note:

So I took the LSAT yesterday and came out almost crying.

I have two score already 162 and 171(Jan 2019) and TWO CANCELLATIONS (Nov 2018 and June 2019)

My goal is to get into the t6 and so was aiming for a 173+ at this test. Consistenly PTed about 172-178 so thought it was worth a shot, and the games completely destroyed me. I probably guessed at least 10 questions on LG.

If I keep score, I’m predicting a score around 165 - or even lower. I hate to see a score decline :(. But if I cancel, I would have three cancellations and I feel it’ll look so bad to the admissions officers.

Should I cancel or keep score? Your advice is much appreciated!

:)

Has anyone seen similar paper--hue--graphite was described, thinness--heard it was sort of like newsprint, and watermark--available for purchase to practice on?

Hey 7sagers. I am doing the in/out games and am trying to print off the pdfs for each practice question. For example, http://classic.7sage.com/lesson/inout-game-2-prompt-and-questions/

However, sometimes when I click the link to either download the pdf or to just get to the link above through the syllabus page I am instead directed to https://classic.7sage.com/enroll/?_s2member_seekingpage=1256

I am a member already so I shouldn't be having this issue. Any ideas?

Edit: Tried on other various links from the "syllabus" page and all links are doing it randomly. Sometimes I click and it will work, sometimes it will take me to the enrollment page.

I am taking the December LSAT. The last lsat exam i scored a 155. I am looking to score in the 160's/ 170 if possible. If you are serious and in the process of taking timed PT, please send me an email. esthera_09@hotmail.com. I also live in Miami.

Hi everyone :). I would really appreciate some advice on the LR section of the LSAT. I have studied the LR section of the exam through 7 sage+ LSAT trainer. I have recently done around 5 sections untimed sections from multiple tests. I have been scoring around 15-16. I would really like to increase that score. I am wiring the exam in October and I want to get around 21-22 questions right under timed conditions. I was planning to keep doing full sections after sections till my score increases, and then time myself. I am also making sure that I read the explanation for why I am getting the questions wrong. I wanted some advice. Should I continue to do individual sections ? Or should I review the LR curriculum again ?

Thank You :)

On UVA's application there is a section titled Activities & Interests as I am sure many people know. I know what I want to put for my answers to each question in the section, but I'm confused as to how I should format my answer for the first box. I originally just made a bulleted list type format for all of my significant extra-curriculars, but when I reviewed my application it all just comes out as a cluttered blob of a paragraph. Does anyone have any idea how to properly format the answer in this section? Or should I just assume that UVA admissions knows that my list is going to come out as a cluttered blob?

Here's an example of my formatting vs how it comes out in the preview:

XX Student Affairs Senate, XX, XX

Elected Student Senator, Academic Affairs Committee, 5 hours/week 8/2015–12/2015

• Helped conduct student review of changes in university admission standards.

XX Model UN Team, XX, XX

Team Member, 3 hours/week 8/2015–12/2015

• Represented XX at the American Model United Nations Conference in Chicago, IL.

vs

XX Student Affairs Senate, Lincoln, XX Elected Student Senator, Academic Affairs Committee, 5 hours/week

8/2015-12/2015 Worked on student legislation, allocation of budgets, and coordination of campus events. Helped conduct student review of changes in university admission standards. XX Model UN Team, XX, XX Team Member, 3 hours/week 8/2015-12/2015 Represented XX at the American Model United Nations Conference in Chicago, IL.

I need help diagramming statements (with contrapositives) with keywords like: some, most, few, many, none, no one. I am having troubles answering Must be True questions on LR section that has those keywords. And, do I always translate such statements in if/then format or is there instances when it is not applicable?

(example question that throw me off with these keywords is Q12, Section 2, PT23. How can they use "weak local government" as sufficient without negating it when the FL structure in stimulus makes it necessary? and if that is possible, why D is incorrect then compared to the correct answer B?)

Thank you!

Can someone please explain to me, when it comes to General Theory, Specific Theory, Guided Application and Problem sets. Where can I go on the CC to learned these fundamentals. Thank You!

Recently, the Priorities section of my analytics has been super bugged.

Tags are often ranked as higher priorities than they should be. Some tags in which I have 100% accuracy are ranked from "highest" to "medium" priority, and all RC tags are labled "highest priority" except one.

Here are some screenshots demonstrating the problem:

Is anyone else experiencing this bug? How can I report this to 7Sage?

Why can we infer that the Antibiotics group cannot have all 3 treatments in from Rule #1?

I'm in Carrollton and looking for a study buddy for the September LSAT. My goal is to break 170, but I'm willing to study with anyone provided s/he is kind and hard-working.

Is it weird that I can easily breeze through more recent LSATs but for some reason I can't even draw a game board from pre LSAT 38 games. LR sections are togher for me too. Should

Looking for an LSAT study buddy in metro Atlanta for September/ December LSAT.

I've been watching a lot of the logic games videos and see a difference between open ended games and those that you need to make inferences for. Are there any telling signs that you need to make inferences, or is this simply intuition you need to acquire through practice?

So my untimed scores are around 175/176. It takes me about 46 min to finish a section. However, on an times PT my score drops down to 163-165, anyone have tips on how to improve timing while maintaining accuracy?

Hey all,

I'll dive right into it - I am struggling with something called an inadvertent memory recall (made the name up) when re-doing practice tests. I don't know if this is a real "science" thing or if someone in the community mentioned this already (searched after doing some light research) but its something I'm struggling with. I have my own solutions posted below and extremely curious to hear what you're thoughts are to avoid this habit.

Here's an example, about 2-3 months ago I wrote PT 73 and recently re-took it. I noticed that I was inadvertently 'lax' when doing both LR sections, which at the time felt strange. While I was in 'lax mode' (which I try to avoid at all times) in the LR sections, however, I caught myself recalling bits of information I remembered up when I first took the exam! This is clearly a big no-no as it can lead to a highly inaccurate score, hinder my ability to get better and, worst of all, it may as well be a false indicator of genuine improvements. My last PT was a 168, but after taking PT 73 my score was 155! I practically went back to my 'old self' when I re-took this exam when, clearly, I improved.

My 2 solutions to this accident are as follows:

Purposefully give yourself tunnel vision and magnify into each word when reading the LR stim.

If a piece of 'old self' information creeps up on you while doing an LR question, quickly sling your ass back to reality (much like a rubber band) and restart at the top of the stim.

That's my 2 cents. Curious to hear other remedies or advice!

Hello 7Sagers,

I am currently working on weaken questions and I am having a hard time understanding the task. I understand that I am supposed to focus on the conclusion, but find the gap between the premises and conclusion ( with the ac) that will weaken the argument. However, it is hard for me to do this accurately because i feel its too much in my head and i get confused. What are some strategies you all use to stop yourselves from getting confused. Do you focus only on weakening the conclusion or something else? Can i think of weakening questions in another way?

In the interest of writing my LOCI's I've been visiting schools and contacting admissions offices.

I recently contacted a school that told me I was welcome to do a self-guided tour, OR, to wait a few weeks and then schedule a meeting with an admissions officer. They specifically told me it was a "Wait List informational meeting" and that it was "neither evaluative nor an interview."

What exactly is it then? Does anybody have experience with this type of meeting? Is it worth it to wait until after May 15th to visit this school or does that sound late? Does it sound like they'd take my interest more seriously if I did this then just check in at the office for a self-guided tour? I only have the $ to visit this school once and honestly even that is a stretch, so I'd like to get the most bang for my buck.
