Can anyone explain this question to me? If you could first point out and explain what the flaw in the stimulus is and then match that against the correct answer, I would greatly appreciate it.

I am simply not improving in logical reasoning. It just does not click. I am really frustrated and want to give up. With reading comp I can usually get all of them right and I can complete 3-4 logic games, but I always bomb the logical reasoning section. I feel as if I am missing something. Am I just meant to never do well on those. I don't think I want to take the September test.

I got 12 wrong in lr section today!! 12!!! And I usually score over 175!! I just started feeling really insecure and anxious while doing it. I couldn't concentrate at all. Now i am afraid to take the other lr section. It's like all my self confidence is gone. What am I going to do??

I've listened to JY's videos on the blind review and why doing it correctly is so crucial to a higher, better LSAT score. One question that came to mind during steps 1 and 2 was, what if I cannot give a valid reason for why a particular answer choice is correct or incorrect? Sometimes I'm stumped about an answer choice. Unless I can figure out or give some reason that makes sense to me about why an answer choice is correct or incorrect can I then move on. Otherwise, I'd be screwing up steps 1 and 2 of the blind review. If I can't come up with a reason after hours of reading and studying the answer choice, should I just move on? Or should I skip it, and then come back to it at a later time (which would mean that I won't be able to check my answers until I've done this).

Any thoughts and comments would be greatly appreciated preferably from those who are already drilling PTs and blind reviews. But I'd also appreciate insight from anyone who just wants to share!!

Thanks in advance!

Ran across a sentence that went something like this the other day....

"If the DDA thinks it is, then jail time is sufficient."

My LSAT logic board almost had a meltdown.

I took the June LSAT, and got a 163. I'm wanting to get into a tier 1 school, so I'm retaking it in Sept. I feel like I am banging my head against a wall with some of the lower down lessons. Is it a bad idea to just skip around?

Clarification: I am usually -1 to -4 in LR, so I think that is fine. I just really need to master LG and RC I think.

Hi,

I am looking for study partner who is committed to get through this tough LSAT journey together! I took a TestMasters prep course last October and been studying since then. I have studied several books including Trainer, Manhattan books, Bibles etc. I found studying partner system to be one of the most efficient and effective ways to push each other hard and share the strategies together.

I would like to meet up if you live around Los Angeles area. I would also like to get in touch through Skype or Phone. It be very good communication tool and convenient. I am down to talk any time. I would like to take a Mock PT together and review. Please contact me at 213.700.3059 or michellemoon0708@gmail.com. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi all!

After a long day of prepping and wracking my brain over LR, I am asking myself "Why law school?" I'm in need of motivation--or maybe a wake-up call.

I'm curious, why do you all want to go to law school? What keeps you motivated? What do you want to do that taking the LSAT will enable you to do?

I am putting together my law school application and I was wondering if anyone knows of a good quality CV editor. I have a great deal of professional experience as well as extracurricular activities and I just want it to be streamlined for a law application.

Any recommendations would be fantastic!

Thanks!

This question is beyond sucky. Did anyone else have any problems with determining the right answer for this question? Thanks.

Hey Fellow Sagers,

Iv'e been studying for the exam now for over a month, but I really don't see any results. I can't break a 140! My goal is not to get a 170+, I'm just being realistic with myself. Anyways, I don't have a good or on ok section. On My last Prep test that I took (Test 52) which was done on timed conditions,I did terrible. I got -32 on LR, - 21 on RC and -14 on LG. I don't know what to do. I've never been a good standardized test taker. If I can get in the Mid 150's I'll be more than glad. My gpa is a solid 3.85. Please help! Is there anyone one else out there that is starting out in the mid 130's? I plan on taking the test in December. Thank you for your time.

Hey so does anyone know what question types appear the most on the lsat and which appear the least? I wanted to know so i could study accordingly and focus on getting the ones that appear the most right.

can someone remind me of the strategy for attacking Rc questions under timed conditions. When we see an answer we think is right are we supposed to go with it (b/c the amount of words in this section and time). This entails little checking of other answers underr timed conditions and is a little different from lg and lr in this sense). (after time stops ticking you go back and heck your answers though, like a br type of thing).

thanks,

Jake

I think the memory method is great but is a bit time consuming, I am thinking of approaching it like this: after reading each paragraph, write a quick memo on the side of the paragraph of the main point, no more than 7 or 8 words. Then when you do the questions you can quickly look back at your brief summary of the main point next to each paragraph. I just think the whole turning the paper over and writing what you memorized down can take a while and a lot of times you forget exactly what the paragraph is saying, but if you write a brief memo about it right after you read a paragraph, it is still fresh in your mind.

Just my thoughts, do you agree? If not, what method works best for you?

Hi

I paid for my upgrade yesterday (its been about 24 hours) but it seems that I cannot access the Starter level material. I worked through a lot of the free stuff so I have been anxious to start. Does it take a while for the account to recognize that I already upgraded?

PT 72 and all video explanations are ready for sale for just $5.97.

That's the lowest price you'll find anywhere.

You also get +1 month to your existing 7Sage account for the purchase.

https://classic.7sage.com/addons/?ss_select=lsat_72

Early bird discount expires Saturday, August 2.

Regular price $29.97.

[In case the first link doesn't work: Mouse over "Course" in the menu, click "Extensions and Addons". You should see PrepTest 72 after scrolling about one screen down.]

I am just wondering if we are suppose to go through all the lessons and then tackle the PTs one by one after we have worked through the syllabus. Do people incorporate the PTs into their studying or does everyone work through all the lessons first?

If anyone is serious and interested in studying for the December LSAT and lives in the Miami area, please contact me as soon as possible. esther.adam2013@gmail.com

Hey fellow Sagers,

I was wondering did anyone hear start out with a 135 or something or something along those lines when they started their prep with 7sage? If yes what is your score now and how did you do it? Thanks! I really need all the motivation that I can get. I plan on taking December and I'm aiming for at least 155

Aside from practice tests, what is the best way to practice stamina for the real test?

I have been studying close to three months now. I took a month long prep course through my university to kick off my studying. My diagnostic was low as expected. Although I have literally stayed at the same score with a slight 2 point improvement a few weeks ago. I took a PT today but it was one I had already taken by accident and obviously scored the best because the material was familiar. I just am so frustrated and cannot get the improvement I am wanting to see despite studying 5 days a week. I would love to personally talk to someone where I could give them more details about my situation etc. Someone please help

If you're in the Philadelphia area and want a study partner (for the Sept LSAT), let me know. It would be cool to hold each other accountable and share strategies. Respond if you'd be interested!

I'm sure I'm not alone in using 7Sage's LSAT Analysis tools AFTER taking and grading my own PTs.

For those of us who do, as we improve, it starts to become more of a hassle for us to enter all our correct answers in the PT Grader.

Why not offer an option to only enter the answers you got wrong? It would save anyone averaging 160+ a significant amount of time.

Hey everyone! I've been studying to take the September LSAT and to apply to law schools for the Fall of 2015. I haven't started any apps yet or really done much research (obviously I need to get on this). I have emailed some former professors about rec letters, but I am just hoping to get some helpful advice on where to start in this process. I feel like there is so much to do and I'm overwhelmed! Also, how many schools is everyone applying to? Just curious. Any feedback is welcomed.

Thanks!

Why does JY in his videos always recommend reading the question stem first? Can't that be confusing sometimes without having read the stimulus? Also, If you read the question stem before and after reading the stimulus, doesn't that waste time? I'd be really grateful for an explanation as to why reading the question first is the best strategy.
