Hi guys, I've been struggling with this question. I chose E. I know that JY explains this by saying we don't know if this use of parathion happens in real world or is it just in our experiment. But doesn't the last paragraph explicitly say that the experiment results are "similar in field planting of strawberries"? Doesn't this show that it indeed happens in real world, that some people indeed used parathion to eliminate T and eventually caused C to reach a damaging level?

I'm really struggling to understand this question.

Does anyone know why B is not right for q11? Thanks :)

We need to connect the assumption that the appreciation of the play and the attention, and thats AC B

Hey guys!

Just started a discord server for the January/February LSAT 2022: https://discord.gg/T3dMtJ47. I want the people who join to be active participants so that the discord server is able to benefit all of us. Please join if you are interested. There is no minimum score to join but I want people to be motivated to put in the effort to be able to get their goal score. Excited to work with everyone!

*EDIT: Even if you are planning to take the LSAT later, please free to join this discord. It is never too early to start joining these study groups. I have pushed the LSAT for about six months so I am more than aware that plans change. I want to create a community on the discord server that goes beyond me taking the test :)

As I understand it, LSAT is fully digital now and there isn't an option to take the test with actual paper and pencil. I hate not being able to cross out and jot things down in the actual margins of the test. Does anyone have tips or insight on this point? Most folks are probably fine doing digital but I'm old and prefer concrete, pencil and paper tests.

Can someone break this down in terms of approaching a stimulus.

For some reason I get these kind of questions correct. Even on the hardest LR questions, I'll resort to POE and somehow get it right. How? I don't know. They are extremely confusing in approaching a stimulus. Thanks.

Hi all. I'd like to sign up to take the April LSAT flex. This option to test from home is very appealing to me for many reasons so I am hoping to take advantage of it before it's gone. I have a full time career and am a single parent. Took the LSAT 15+ years ago and got a disappointing 154 after testing mid-high 160s. It was demoralizing and changed the trajectory of my career. Now here I am again studying, understanding all the concepts when giving myself ample time but bombed my first practice test (149). I got most of the LG wrong (-17) because of nerves but scored higher in RC (-4). I'm here looking for advice - I'm overwhelmed by figuring out how to study with all of the choices available - online platforms, programs etc. I've been reading PowerScore bibles and they are helpful but feel like if I don't have a concrete plan for the next four months, it's not going to be enough. Does anyone have a good four month study schedule they can share that focuses mostly on LG and LR? A live course that might help in addition to PS or 7Sage? Or do you have a tutor recommendation that could help me navigate these choices and create a customized plan based on my strengths and weaknesses? Thank you!

Hello!

I am taking the June LSAT and right now on my practice tests my worst section has been LR. I am curious if anyone else has been struggling with LR and is having trouble finding ways to improve specifically on assumption, strengthen/weaken, and flaw questions or overall LR questions. I am curious if anyone would be interested in a weekly small study group where we focus specifically on LR questions and strategies for how we approach them.

If you are interested, please email me at morganhmetsch@gmail.com or direct message on here!

I'm planning on taking on the LSAT in February, 2022. I have a pretty good understanding of the LSAT, but I need some structure. If anybody has any recommendations, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Anthony

I am having problems with the Logical Games especially with grouping and matching. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

Hi all. I am looking for someone to review and go over pt's with about once a week. I took the November exam and scored a 161 and am shooting for a 165 for January. I study for a couple hours a day during the week and then take a full pt on Saturdays. I have completed 60-80 as pt's and am planning on working up from 81 as January approaches. My plan was to hopefully take the same pt's each weekend and then meet on zoom maybe on Monday of the following week. We could use the screen share feature and take turns going over our exam and talking through our wrong answers or thought processes. I think having someone explain their thoughts and process will be very helpful for me, and hopefully I could be of some help to you. If you think you would be interested in something like this, please comment or dm and we can talk further. I am planning on taking 81 on Saturday. Thanks so much!

Hi All, good evening!

Does anyone have any information on resources that I can use to get my law school personal statement reviewed? I'm currently looking for some help.

Thank you!

Hey guys, I’m going to be taking the November LSAT in a couple weeks and I keep missing fill questions. What is the best strategy to tackle these?

hi! (fair warning, this a question from is the genuinely tragic mirrors passage btw): for the life of me, i cannot figure out why c is the right choice for this one. i think it's largely because i literally just don't understand what the answer choice means. like genuinely word-wise.

i get that the idea of "separating observers from scientific phenomenon" as it's discussed in the text + how this informs the tendency of scientists to prefer certain explanations for phenomena. but i don't understand how that idea is conveyed by answer choice c. answer c reads: "One explanation of what mirrors do reveals the traditional tendency of physicists to separate a phenomenon to be explained from the observer of a phenomenon."

i've been racking my head trying to parse the bolded part word-by-word but i genuinely can't figure it out. isn't the point the text is making that science ppl prefer explanations that don't rely on the observer? how does "separating a phenomenon •••to be explained••• from the observer of a phenomenon" do that?? if someone could even just help break down what this part means that would be useful lol. ty in advance (3(/p)

Hi all,

I would appreciate any advice on canceling a score vs postponing the LSAT.

Here's my situation - I took the LSAT for the first time in August. A mix of test day anxiety and technical issues (having my test closed out for me) resulted in a score much lower than my practice tests. I feel ready/prepared for the November LSAT. However I have been pretty sick these past few weeks and this week I still feel a bit dizzy/head foggy. It seems to affect my performance by about 2-4 points. I'm worried though that realizing I'm not in my best mental state x test day anxiety will result in a worse performance, or perhaps I can power through -- obviously, no one can answer that for me. My plan as of now is to just take the test tomorrow and if I can tell immediately after that my performance was affected by not feeling well, I'll cancel it and then take in Jan. OR I could just postpone and take it in Jan.

My question is how does a score cancelation look on your record? How might this compare to the downsides of taking the LSAT in Jan, when I'll be writing applications to schools that I'm not even positive my scores will make me competitive for? Any advice would be so appreciated especially since this is so so last second.

Thank you!!!

Hi folks,

I'm wondering what to do after I do blind review specifically for RC. For LR and LG, I watch JY's videos for questions I missed even after BR. I usually learn a lot from watching JY's videos and see the error of my logic from when I BR'd. But with RC, I watch JY's videos and don't really learn much. I understand why I got the question wrong, but it doesn't inform how I do on the next RC section. I feel like I'm not getting from it what I need to.

Anyone have advice/tips on what they do for RC review?

Thanks!

Hey folks. I always seem to struggle with the analogy questions on RC passages. Does anyone have any tips/tricks?

PT 48, S3, P2, Q9 is the latest one I've come across.

Thanks!

Hi everyone!

I am going to be taking the LSAT-Flex for the first time in June, and am hoping to only have to write it this one time. Accordingly, I have been trying to do as much studying and reviewing as possible between now and then. My average score has been fluctuating quite a bit, ranging from 160 - 170.

I recently completed PrepTest 87 (June 2019) and finished with a score of 164. However, I am having difficult understanding some of the questions I got wrong. I have listened to some explanation videos, but am failing to see why the multiple choice answer I chose is not "more right" than the correct answer.

If anyone could explain any of the following questions, I would really appreciate it (specifically, why the answer I chose is incorrect).

S1 - RC: #3, 11, 13, 14, 24.

S2 - LR: 14, 17, 18, 19, 24, 26.

Thank you!

I saw a question similar to this posted a few years back, so I want to see if there are any new updates or other people with this issue and how they overcame it.

I am a US citizen but I got my undergraduate degree in a foreign country (Taiwan). I want to apply to law school but worry about my ability to qualify (will admissions accept my foreign degree?).

Does anyone have any advice or resources that can answer this question?

Hello everyone,

I am scheduled to take the LSAT on April 12, 2024. However, I began studying on December 20th, 2023 and fear my timeline is too short. Is it generally a rule of thumb to give yourself more than 3.5 months to study for this exam? Should I move my test date to June? HELP

Hello 7Sagers.

I'm a current 1L student taking the regular curriculum, including legal reading, research, and writing. However, my course is taught poorly, I'm not learning as much as I would like, and I would like to drop my LRRW course.

Is there any other school which would permit me to enroll only in LRRW while remaining at my current law school, such that I could transfer my LRRW credits from that school to my own? Obviously, the course would have to be offered online.

Thanks in advance.

I am planning on applying ED either by the end of October or beginning of November. On the 7sage Predictor, it says I have a 6% better chance of getting in ED if I apply in October vs. November, but I'm thinnking that this application cycle could be different because of COVID. Am I putting myslef at a significant disadvantage by applying in early November?

JY suggests that sometimes we should cut a question out, keep it, and review it every so often.

So how do you do it? do you create a excel sheet for it or you create your problem set on 7 sage?
