In the lessons about In/Out games there is use of bi-conditionals like J (--) /K. For other prep material they have used a "negative bi-conditional", so J (-/-) K. Do these represent the same things? I assumed they both meant J and K cannot be selected together. #Help

In the drilling mode section it says there are a certain amount of 'clean questions' remaining for each category. Does this refer to questions that only exist in PTs 1-35? I would like to do more drills but also don't want to spoil future practice tests.

Has anyone else gotten an email about signing up for a testing time for the April test yet? I saw sign ups are suppose to start today, but I haven't gotten any emails yet, and last time I'm pretty sure I got an email about it in advance

I'm currently scoring: 155-160

📆 My planned test date: April/June

📈 To study, I have been: Studying all of LG to try and get -0 and reading the Loophole

🔑 My goals for this group are: to hold each other accountable and study in person together.

🔍 We'll focus on: Whatever we find necessary

📚 When we'll meet and what we'll do: As much as possible!! I am open to every week day and weekends off or Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

✅ How to join: Zoom or in person

Hi guys! I just started with the v2 core curriculum and I think it'll be a great idea to get a study buddy(ies) to help each other through this insane process. Lmk if you're interested! I'd love to connect over discord since it is so easy to use. Thanks!! Also, if you can add me as a friend on discord (swaggerjagger02) so we can get to know each other and plan some sessions!

My home environment isn't a reliable place to take the test. I am considering taking at a testing center. Has anyone tried this? Do they provide the computer the test is administered on, or do I need to bring my own?

Looking for in-person study buddies in the area- hoping to take any exam prior to next cycle. I can provide a calendar for us to populate. This is also a good way to explore new cafes/study spots in the Bay! The primary purpose of this is to provide accountability and motivation (stemming from a bit of healthy competition). HMU!!

As soon as I start to read questions my brain starts to melt and mush. I have to reread the first sentence so many times to actually dial in, and beyond that point I usually have to read the who stimulus/passage 3-5 times to actually have a grasp of it. I feel like I cannot process the information fast enough and that has been the issue for me for some time.

I'm embarrassed to say it but with the time allotted (35min) I usually can only finished about 10-12 questions per section. The only way I can actually finish a section is by skimming and guessing. I actually got some time accommodations (thankfully), but I am only able to finish a few more questions with the extra time. I leave about 9 questions blank.

I feel very insecure about how my brain works and how my processing speed is regarding this stuff. Does anyone have experience with this? I have the KNOWLEDGE, and I have the SKILLS & TOOLS (I could use of course more practice), however I'm worried about my inability to apply what I know, because in order for me to apply my skills I have to be able to READ and FOCUS and PROCESS quickly!! Help? Tell me I'm not alone...

Hey 7Sagers,

Just FYI, if you're having a tough time pulling up your RC score and are wondering if you could be doing anything differently, I recently posted some RC tips over on the blog:

LSAT Reading Comprehension Tips

If you've had success with other approaches, please share! Post any tips of your own here or over in the blog's comments.

Happy reading and comprehending!

I've been studying and I noticed a very peculiar trend in my wrong answer choices as well as the reason I get these answers wrong. And the issue is I always wind up missing some important detail in the stimulus that will lead me to the correct answer choice. And it's always something small like a key word whether it's something that indicates strength (always, some of the time, never) or something like "adequately, imprecise, etc". It's always something small but this small thing usually changes the answer choice up a lot. And my wrong answer choice is almost always the second most selected answer meaning that I'm falling into the trap the LSAT writers have set out in some way.

Any advice/ practice strategies for resolving this issue? Or any more concise explanation? I see the pattern but I'm still having a bit of a hard time completely understanding and pinpointing the issue.

I am planning on taking the August LSAT; I am currently scoring in the low 170s and am generally free on the weekends and most weekday evenings. I would be happy to go over anything, I just need someone else to work through questions and develop a stronger understanding of the test with.

Hi all,

I never thought I would be asking about this on the 7Sage forum, but I figured I would since you all want to go to law school. Are there any jobs that require a college degree but no professional experience? Ideally those that relate to legal work. Also, if you all have any suggestions on where to look I would appreciate any direction.

Hi, can anyone elaborate on the math that J.Y. does in this problem in the explanation video? I’m still confused on how he got 200 for one aspect of it.

Hey everone, I just register for the in-person 7Sage course, anyone taking it?

Often, when doing RC passages, I doubt myself. The answers I select feel like they're half guessing, but I am usually correct. Anybody have any advice on how I can go about having more confidence in my answers?

Hi all,

I almost always take notes when going through the lessons in the core curriculum. When I finish it and it is time to focus on drills and Preptests, is there a way I can use those notes, especially from questions I got wrong?

Hi All!

Not really sure where this goes, but I am wondering if there is any chance that the August 2024+ PTs will be loaded onto 7sage. I know that these sections are used from past LSATS, but I find it would be helpful when looking at analytics to be able to track that data.

Or even possibly have an option to create custom prep tests as I found out which sections correlate to which PT.

Hey all, currently my study and buddy and I Blind Review practice tests every Sunday afternoons, like 3:30 PM-ish PST, over Zoom. If you are planning on taking the April, June, August, or December test and also want to review with us, please let me know!

I was trying to make a problem set on here using questions I got wrong on various preptests in Lawhub, but when I went to add PT 62, S2, Q18 (which in Lawhub is a SA question re: planets/solar system) it pulled up a completely different question (MBF question re: computer programming). is there a reason and/or a solution? thank youuu

Hi,

I am looking to take June 2024 LSAT. I work FT. I am a nontraditional student with little ones. I have flexibility on a weekend, Mon and Fri. I am looking for preferably a female buddy or buddies. I would like to meet once or twice a week to go over possibly a section or two and go over how we both would approach a question type. Or we can do a RC passage together or/and can try to explain it to the other what we just read . I believe if you can explain what you just read, you are one step ahead. We can work on games together, too. I guess just someone to share this miserable journey with and be each other biggest supporter. We can brainstorm together. Please let me know if you're interested!

Hi everyone

I plan to take the August LSAT, and I am looking for anyone else who is available to be accountability partners or study buddies leading up to that time. Preferably Zoom or another video platform would be fine.

Could anyone provide an example of a stimulus or anything that fits into the answer C? It doesn't actually have to be matching the content in C, just the form of "confusing x with y".

Thank you very much.

In the new version of the core curriculum, the way JY teaches Argument Part questions, he tells us to beware of answer choices that use language like "assumption" or "implies" etc. because if the question states an idea explicitly mentioned in the stimulus, it by definition cannot be an assumption or implicit. This made a lot of sense to me and still does! However, PT39, S2, Q16 makes me struggle a bit. As the right answer calls the explicitly referenced idea "an assumption."

Attractive Wrong Answer: C - "It is offered as evidence for the contention that human beings must be descended from either lungfish or coelacanths."

Correct Answer: D - "It is an assumption that both parties to the dispute use as a starting point for their arguments about human evolution."

The question says "which one of the following most accurately describes the role played in the dispute above by the proposition that frogs are definitely related to the species of fish from which human beings evolved"

The stimulus says "Since biologists agree that frogs are definitely related to the species of fish from which human beings evolved..."

How could that idea possibly play an "assumption" role in the argument if it is explicitly stated?

I know the LSAT makes it pretty hard to hold any absolute truths about the test, but I really thought it would be hard to ever have a correct Argument Part answer choice reference an assumption. Am I totally off-base here? Thanks!

I plan on taking the lsat in June 2024 and was aiming to get high 150s/low 160s. I took my first PT in february before I started studying and got a 143. I took it again this month (march) after 45 hours of studying and got a 148. I am discouraged by my recent score. Can I realistically increase my score to a 160 in 2.5 months? I know that hours don't necessarily convert to points but how many hours would you estimate it would take? Any tips would be appreciated!

I've been studying for the LSAT for a while now but I haven't done a full practice test yet. I've completed LR and am about halfway through LGs... my thinking is that I want to complete all three sections so I know how to tackle all the questions. Do you think that is productive or do you think it'd be beneficial to do a practice test before completing the core curriculum?
