JY or other admin personnel in charge please help me here.

JY mentioned in the training video that we have to practice logic game on the real-test-like sheets in order to train ourselves to write small and fast.

However, the logic game question sets I downloaded from this class all have spacious room to write on compared to 2007 PT ( the only PT I took so far). Shall I not practice with so much room on the paper?

I have completed about 10 PTs and during my blind review I've noticed that 90% of my wrong answers come from making the same silly mistakes or misreading something. I've tried drilling and reviewing the course material. Any one else work through this? How did you power through? How do I confirm I really "got it" and won't repeat that mistake again?

Anybody in the area that wants to do some last min studying for this February lsat

Hey guys! For those taking the test in February, we have 2 WEEKS LEFT! How do you guys feel? And how are you planning on studying until D-DAY?

If Feb LSAT is undisclosed, how is it that the test creators know their questions are not flawed? Should I be troubled by this? lol

Anyone else find they are making stupid mistakes on Logical Reasoning...?

I usually score between -6 to -8 on these sections when I do them timed.

Once I complete a Logical Reasoning section I re-print the section and do all the questions un-timed as Blind Review, without looking at the answer choices I circled before. (I still do the questions fairly quickly)

I find that when I go over them a second time, I only get 3-4 wrong... Does anyone else have this problem?

Any steps I can take to get these right on the first attempt? There seems to be no pattern as to the questions types that I am missing.

Hi I'm looking for a Study partner in the Niagara region for the June 2015 LSAT. Let me know!

I am having a tough time wrapping my head around flaw questions. They are a total time suck for me and I usually end up getting them wrong. I've reviewed JY's material and drilled flaw questions but have only seen small improvement. Has anyone else had trouble with these?

Is anyone else having any problem with using the note function?

I've been taking notes on the note section at the bottom fine until today. But it doesn't show the cursor on it and still doesn't work even after I refreshed the page and restarted my laptop.

Help?

Hi guys,

I would like to know which games are usually harder(and/or time consuming) among 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th. So far, I have seen 1st game is usually easier, and 3rd one is harder. Sometimes, 4th one is also harder. My problem is, while taking timed PT, somehow, if I pick up a harder one as 1st or 2nd game, then I cannot answer all questions( i.e., I cannot complete the last game, which might be even easier, and I end up getting lower score instead). Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

For LR reasoning is there a cheat sheet out there that summarizes all the strategies by question type?

I bought three watches after reading JY's post about keeping time. However, I just read the comments below where someone said they e-mailed LSAC about it and were told it is not allowed. I've heard a couple people's experiences and both were positive. Just wondering if anyone has encountered any problems when trying to use three watches?

Is it normal to take 9-12 minutes on a passage that has 7-8 questions? This time is also spent annotating, underlining, and etc. I usually only get 1 wrong though, which I guess is a good thing? I'm not sure if I should pick it up more or stay around this range.

Hi! I wanted to get a feel of everyone's study schedule for the last 2 weeks before the test (especially the full time working people). How many PTs? etc.

Could also be a group. Hoping to take the June LSAT.

Can anyone point me to a lesson that explains when contrapositives should be utilized and when it should be ignored?

Anyone have any tips or assistance for getting more of the most difficult LR questions correct? Especially necessary assumptions?

Hello, I am currently studying for the LSAT. I work full time and I manage to study three hours a day after work, Monday - Thursday and review during the weekend. I dedicate 1 hour to RC, 1 hour to LG and 1 LR. I am using the Trainer and PS LG bible. I want to hear some opinions/advice on whether dedicating 1 hour to each section would be productive in the long run.

Hello all!

I went through the 7Sage curriculum last year from September - October. I was going to take the Dec test but have decided to push back. I'm trying to score at least a high 160s but preferably in the 170s. 7Sage helped my LG immensely. I was losing a ton of points on RC and missing around 5-7 on each LR section. I haven't taken a PT since around November/December, and have gone through some PowerScore books. I am desperately trying to get my LR score down to as close to -0 as possible. I don't have a ton money to throw at books right now, but I have decided to get one of these: Manhattan LR or LSAT Trainer. I have heard so many things about how the Trainer has been a God-send, and I have recently been seeing several posts on different sites about how Manhattan LR is king for LR, etc etc.

For those of you who have used one, I'd like to get your thoughts on the one you used, or, if you used both, I'd like to know which order you would suggest using them or which you liked better and why.

Thanks for your help!!

This might be an odd question, and I am hoping someone on staff can shed some light on it for me. Does the February test differ from any of the other tests throughout the year? They never release the Feb. exam and I suddenly had a pang of hesitation thinking they might throw something new/different on it.

Hi 7Sagers!

Just wanted some wisdom on the optional diversity statement. I know that usually there is no specific length on a Diversity Statement and its customary for 1 or less but mines is shaping up to be 2. What do you guys think? Does anyone else have 2 paged DS?

A couple days ago I scored a 174 on PT 64 using the LSAT proctor app. My average over the last 5 has been a 172.5. About 10 months ago my cold diagnostic was a discouraging 153. I've hit the books hard since then and have thoroughly reviewed all three powerscore bibles, the manhattan books, velocity's online course, the lsat trainer, and most recently (thank goodness) 7sage which has been an absolute savior for me on the LG section especially. I have studied for almost a full year now. I was originally going to sit for this past June, and decided I was still making improvements, so I postponed to Sept, at which point I felt I still had room to improve and postponed to Dec only to feel the same way. I am finally going to sit for the Feb exam as my room for improvement, although still possible, is at this point, marginal. Also, I'm fully aware that I will have to sit out a cycle but I think my patience will be rewarded on test day (knock on wood). My point I think is twofold:

1. You don't have to be a genius to do well on this exam, you just need average intellect with serious determination to put in the hours, and to understand HOW to study.

2. Don't rush the process, wait until you feel ready to sit for the exam. I can honestly say that at this point I feel adequately prepared to take this exam, whereas just a couple months ago (after 8 months of studying) I was not.

Good luck to everyone!

Hey y'all, is anyone in Philly looking to study together/create a study group? I'm planning on taking the June 2015 exam, I've been studying for about 3 months with the LSAT Trainer and just started the 7sage program. I am happy to share the Trainer and compare methods. Let me know if you are in the area and want to meet up and study/review/discuss either the test in general or specific questions and PTs. Good luck to everyone!

Hi Everyone! My name is Justina. I currently work full time (40 hours a week) and go to college full time (finishing my BA this May 2015) I also picked up a part time job (20 hours a week) to make extra money to not be completely strapped. The 2014 school year for me was extremely important. This summer I had a 4.0 semester and this fall I have a 3.8 semester in order to get my GPA to be a 3.60 by the time I graduate. I was taking 5 classes each semester. I am relieved that I have a much better GPA than before. (1.9 when I first transferred to this school) However, I am completely not ready to take the LSAT and I had my heart set on going to law school in the fall of 2015. I would like to go to Florida State U which has medians of 3.43/159 - which is realistic. FSU accepts applications until June 2015 for Fall 2015. My cold score was a 143. I would like to get a 160. (Was supposed to take Dec test and cancelled it) I have not taken a PT since August. I would like to know if anyone has advice, encouragement or anything similar to my situation. I read so many posts that people quit their jobs to prepare for this exam which is amazing but for me is not an option. Can anyone share their story if they are balancing a hectic life at the same time? Would I have a shot into this school if I took the June LSAT and scored mid 160s (since they do accept June) My biggest fear is not going to law school this fall and completely taking a left turn in the life I had planned. Thanks Everyone.. Sorry if I went on and on!! (I am signed up for the 7 sage starter course)
