Hello! I started my RC section at a -4 on my diagnostic, and I've found that after studying the section, my score has gotten worse- going to a -7 or -8. Does anyone have any advice? Has this happened to anyone before? I wonder if I'm just overthinking the answers.

On my last four pt’s I have gotten -7 wrong on each one. In between each pt I foolproof all games from that specific test and continue to go through tests from 1-35 and the pts I completed recently. I have already foolproofed 1-35 as well. On each test I miss the substitution question, one or two total in the first three games, and then I get killled on the fourth game usually missing three or four. I’m hoping someone could give me some guidance on how to get my misses down on that last game. If I could do that I think I’d be in decent shape. On BR I am able to figure the games out and go -0 to -1, so I think I may just not be picking up on the inferences quick enough. Thanks in advance for any advice or tips you have!

Is anyone else struggling with trying to get peace and quiet at home? I had to quit a prep test in the CC today because no matter how hard I try, I can get total quiet at my house. I'm very worried about taking the lsat flex in these conditions but everything is shut down.

I wonder if there is any January test taker who is still on the road to take Feb LSAT?

I considerably under-performed myself in January test (I caught a cold on test day and had a terrible migraine during test), and plan to take Feb or April the latest.

I have been PTing around 165-170 prior to the test, and my goal is to reach170 the minimum in my third take.

I am looking for just a couple of people who is committed to take Feb LSAT, and probably meet couple of times during the week discussing questions or strategies and support eachother.

If anyone is in the same range and interested, please PM me.

Hi guys I'm in dire need of advice. I scheduled for the August flex thinking I'd have enough time to study and get the score I want, however, that's not the case at all. I'm 2 weeks away from the test. I tried to reschedule some time ago, but the deadline already passed. Has anyone ever tried rescheduling last minute with the LSAC before? and if it worked for you at all?

Hey everyone!

For the last month I've been stuck in the low-mid 160s. My BR scores are consistently low 170s-mid 170s. I take 3 timed PTs a week and then on the in between days I drill the areas that I am struggling with (mostly LG and recently RC). I am taking the October LSAT and am starting to get nervous about if I will ever close this gap between BR and my timed PTs. How long and in what way were you able to close this gap? Thank you so much!

Hi everyone! So I made a groupme for anyone studying for the October in LSAT. If interested, please join! I was hoping we could motivate each other and ask questions in it as well. Here's the link for anyone interested:

Hello 7Sagers,

I have been doing untimed sections from the 40's and 50's and have been still missing questions. I'm pretty solid on understanding the stimulus but the AC's always seem to trip me up. If anybody would like to go through these LR sections with me and we can go over the questions to really understand what the stimulus is saying and work through the AC's showing how the right one is right and the wrong one is wrong I would love to have a Zoom/Video chat session to go over them. I'm available on Fridays and Saturdays all day. If interested just comment below or PM me!

Looking for around 3 people to join the group. Any more tends to result in a clusterf...

Will be on discord.

This is for people taking October , only.

7sagers that have done the CC preferred.

The point of this group is to go over LR sections, aprox. 3 times a week. During the morning, and afternoons depending on schedule.

Full time LSAT study members preferred with open schedules.

Avg PT score of 160+ preferred.

Repeat flex testers preferred.

Headset with MIC required for discord to go over LR sections. (Webcam not required.)

Anything above PT 65 would be ideal, so this is mainly for people looking to do the mid 60s , 70s, 80s.

Send me a DM if you are interested. I know this seems strict, but just trying to get the right people.

Hello,

I noticed that I am having trouble diagramming questions whenever I see the words "some" and "most" appear. In some cases, those words are used to indicate a some or most conditional relationship, but in other cases they are not. I noticed that sometimes I am diagramming some or most relationships where none exist, which is making questions take longer and making them more difficult for me than they really are with my skill/knowledge level. For example, I diagrammed question 22 from section 4 from pretest 70 (not sure if I can copy/paste question on discussion forum) as having some and most relationships when they didn't. When I watched JY's explanation, I realized that that problem should've been so easy, but I diagrammed it wrong. Does anyone have any advice about how to know when a some/most relationship triggers and when it doesn't? Thank you!

Hi guys,

I am currently prepping for 2021 April LSAT and it has been so hard since I work full-time in advisory. I have finished all the LSAT prep courses and are doing prep tests now. Looking for someone to meet once a week via zoom/in-person ( I am currently in California and will be back to nyc in December) to go over prep tests and keep each other accountable.

Thanks!

Best,

Sherry

I'm taking the October Flex, so far I'm PTing in the 160s range. My goal is a high 160s or even a 170. It'd be great if you're located in Taipei (so we could meet up in person), but since that's highly unlikely, I'm ok chatting with anyone in or near my timezone, UTC+8.

I got 168 from January and some drops on points from July flex.

I am not really sure if I should apply with this status, or if I should give it one more shot.

I am an international, is there a good chance for an international to get into T14 with 168 and AA?

First impression wise, not a bad argument, but we're looking for an AC that shows that despite the fact that broadsides had statements about morals, it doesn't mean that most 17th century people were serious about moral values.

Maybe people back then bought broadsides for other reasons unrelated to those moralizing statements. This is the loophole in our argument.

B - gives us another reason why people bought broadsides: they were drawn to the sensationalized account of crime and adultery rather than to the morals.

B shows that broadsides were also entertaining in nature, not just moralizing.

A - regardless of whether broadsides are of low or high literary quality, they were still moralizing in nature, and people still bought them, but we're still left wondering whether people bought broadsides because they cared about morals or something else.

C - gives us an irrelevant mini history lesson.

D - premise booster. Tells us what we know already, namely that broadsides were moralizing in nature, so it makes sense for the clergy to use the broadsides for moralistic purposes. But we're still left wondering whether the people actually cared about moral values or not.

E - it doesn't matter what well-educated people think or feel about broadsides but how they think about moral values. Also tells us nothing about what the remaining non-well-educated people think about morals, which means we most likely can't justify the "most" statement in the conclusion.

Hey guys,

just a quick poll, are we supposed to do the "drilling materials" section as a whole PT or as the title indicates just use them for specific types of problems. I'm a bit confused cause the curriculum lists them as whole tests and puts them before the modern tests. Just wondering if I should skip them in favour of the more modern tests. Opinions welcome and thanks.

I am averaging mid 160's and targeting 170+ for the August LSAT Flex. I am mainly struggling with Reading Comprehension and finding a technique that works for me. Looking for someone to study this and develop a technique with or someone who knows what has worked for them and can help me out.

Hey guys, did you guys finish Invalid Argument form curriculum? If you did, did you find it helpful?

Thanks guys!

Anyone planning on taking the October LSAT? How far are you along in the course and how much time do you dedicate per day. Just wondering how everyone else is doing!

So given all the new restrictions on international students, for someone who's applying to US next year... Do you guys think it'll affect admissions if they see you are from outside of the states? I'm from Canada, eh.

I'm taking the LSAT Flex at the end of this month. My laptop's built-in mic hasn't been working for the past week and I learned, today, that replacing it would mean replacing the entire laptop. I have a desktop microphone I can use but I'm unsure of whether LSAC allows this while taking the Flex and I can't seem to find an answer online or get anyone from LSAC on the phone.

Anyone have experience with this?

Hi All! Fairly silly question but I was wondering what exactly the test format looks like for the official LSAT. When doing practice questions you can chose between 7sage format or standard format - is the standard one comparable to the actual format on the test? I read somewhere that when you're taking the LSAT for RC that there's a function that allows you to search words in the passage is this true? Additionally if anyone with insights could tell me about the paper and pencil format of the test that would be super helpful too. Thanks!

Does anyone know of tutors who help with the process of LSAT applications? Preferably a more individualized tutor rather than through a company.

Hi, I'm going to be writing a diversity statement and in addition to some extensive googling, I wanted to know if anyone here has had success writing DS's or has some sage, or 7sage (bad joke) advice for writing a good DS. I've also looked at the admissions site here on 7sage for some pointers and they have been helpful.

Just looking for peoples' input and specific advice. Thanks!

You must be registered for an upcoming test in order to start the accommodations request process.

You'll need to submit two forms: Candidate Form and a Qualified Professional Form

You submit and wait to get an email. If you submit both forms it's very likely you'll be granted all accommodations you request.

Hope this helps!

Please leave your telegram and/or line ID and I can sort a group chat together. Thanks!
