Hello! Looking for someone or some people to start studying for the LSAT. My goal is to take it in November and shooting for around 170-175. I am located in SLC. So excited (and terrified).

I've read through the Good LOCI examples, and they all mention campus visits. Regretfully, I didn't visit my dream school before being waitlisted, and I fear I won't have the opportunity to do so before May 1st (first-deposit deadline). Any ideas of how I can make up for this? This school typically doesn't allow prospective students to preview classes, but maybe now that it's all over Zoom I can ask?

Join them for a supportive look at navigating the last month of your LSAT journey.

Greetings 7 Sagers,

I was hoping to get some insight on the ethics of contacting schools for application advice. Is it acceptable to touch base with a school and inquire about advice they can give you as a JD applicant? I'm sure there are several people in this community who are either 1) waiting for a decisions, or 2) on the waiting list, and would greatly appreciate some advice. Thanks!

Hi everyone, I’m looking for a tutor in the NYC area, preferably a tutor that can meet in person. I need help particularly with logic games and I also need some help with the logical reasoning.

Hello, would any of you be interested in doing a zoom study session - mainly focusing on RC (it seems to be my weakest section)

Let me know! Only a few days left until we have to take it!

Thanks :)

This is no joke.

Hi,

For some reason, I just found this question really difficult. I was really kind of stuck between B and E, and I wasn't sure about either of them because it is hard to find direct textual evidence that I can connect back to what the question is asking for. For instance, B looked right because of lines 35-36. E looked sort of right due to lines 57-58. However, what made it really hard for me to decide the answer choice was lines 32-35-- if finding common grounds to communicate is "impossible" then how is it "resolvable" in the first place? This sentence made A look sort of right, and made me doubt my previous thinking...

Can anyone give an explanation for this question?

Any #help would be appreciated!

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.

The problem sets for the Most Strongly Supported Statements have been very helpful in fine tuning my skills. However, I am in dire need of help with the questions that are considered High Priority. I cannot seem to correctly figure them out.

What works best for you?

Hi,

This was a very weird author's-attitude question. Even when I look at the correct line (line 24), I still don't fully understand how the answer here is B. (I thought the answer was A because of how the author described Bentham's reform as revolutionary and then goes on to describe the flaws behind the reform). Why is B right?

Any #help would be appreciated!

So I’m having some difficulty eliminating Answer choice A and wondering why my interpretation of it is incorrect.

A says: “The truth of a given description is independent of its emotional vividness.”

I interpreted this to mean, whether a description is true or false is independent of emotional vividness. I remember from both passages that the respective authors thought that telling lies increased emotional vividness, so I thought A was correct by reasoning that if something is untrue then emotional vividness increases. Shakespeare in the first passage and subjectivity in autobiography in the second illustrated this. So I reasoned that truthfulness, as interpreted as being true or false is not independent of emotional vividness, because at least of aspect of truthfulness, being false—increases emotional vividness.

Obviously, this was an incorrect interpretation. Just wondering how I could know that from reading the answer choice, and how I could ascertain the correct one.

Thanks!

Hi,

So Im averaging -8 on the LR section. There's a pattern to my incorrect answers though. They are all sufficient assumptions, principle, or parallel reasoning questions. They all require me to map out the argument and understand whats missing or to mirror the same map to something else.

The problem is that I don't understand how to map out reasoning. I can do simple ones but on my own, all my diagrams are confusing. HELP!

For those who want to come- Prep Test 83 BR call on Thursday evening for the first LR at 7:00 pm Eastern and also 7:00 pm Eastern on Friday for the second LR. This will be a collaborative style BR. Please take the test or sections and do your own BR first but don’t score the section. We would like to have a good discussion and hear different perspectives/ reasoning which is most effective when people don’t know the answers.

We will meet via Zoom. Here is the link: https://us02web.zoom.us/j/7769566542

Hey everyone, quick shortcut for these kinds of LG questions. First, look at each of the answer choices and see if any of them must be true. The ones that aren't are instantly wrong. Think about it--you're testing for logical equivalence. For two statements to be logically equivalent, they must be true in all circumstances. If either one of the statements isn't true all of the time, they can't constitute a logically valid premise, and they can't be used to imply the validity of other statements.

Hope this helps!

I saw only one review. And it mentioned long tables, however, in Angell Hall there are only the little pop-up tables. How will this work for the digital LSAT?

I totally forgot about the scratch paper. The thing is right after I finished it was completely silent for a minute or so, so I just closed the connection with proctor u.

Was I supposed to rip up scratch paper in front of camera? Obviously after I realized this I did throw it away and ripped it up, but hours after. Will people be penalized if not ripping it up in front of camera afterwards?

Split screen support would be really helpful for tablet users.

My eyes are getting too much exercise from reading 1/32 inches letters on my goodnotes.

Hi all,

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 :)

Could someone explain why the correct answer choice is E ? Also is there a way for me to look up an explanation for this specific question on 7sage? I just started the free trial so I am still getting used to the site?

Anyone studying the LSAT in Columbus, OH? Would love to meet up and study some time. Feel free to DM me.

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?

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?

Planning on taking the lsat on April 25 if anyone wants to meet up and take PT's/BR together under exam conditions and just overall kill this exam together. If anyone is interested email me at leehhl1123@gmail.com or leave a comment here (check every day or so)
