Aidin Again,

As the deadline is getting closer and I am getting busier with the LSAT I am looking for someone in Orange County or southern california area that can help me with picking schools, sending applications, looking over my material, help me with personal statement and etc. This would help tremendously by taking some weight off my shoulder with this application process. We could discuss donation amount depending on the quality and the amount of work the person is capable of. If you or anyone you know does this please send me his/her info to me Firouziaidin@gmail.com.

Thank you !

Anyone can tell me why option D is wrong? Passage A mentions an objection to progressive taxes when it highlights the incentives for avoiding it and the opportunities to do so and passage B mentions the objection of unfairness in the first paragraph. Just how can D be wrong? Anyone is with me in sending a complaint to LSAC?

Hi Everyone,

So I don't know if it is ok to post this on here. But, I finished taking the LSAT this past June and scored VERY well. I was accepted late to my school of choice with a scholarship. Now I have SO SO SO many books and notes and PDF's of tests/notes/books that I would really like to get rid of. Let me know if you're interested. I spent a lot of money and time on these materials. If you're local (Boston) that would be best because shipping could be expensive.

If you need materials send me a message. thanks.

Hi 7Sagers!

I'm Jonathan; or, as some folks at the NYC Overlook meetup called me, "the other guy". If you've watched any problem set explanation videos, some of those are mine; I have a bunch of videos in the full test explanations as well. I've also been popping into the forums a bit more often lately, as a few of you have noticed.

As you're all aware, the LSAT is hard. And while 7Sage is awesome, sometimes you might need additional help with a certain question or concept. I've worked closely with JY and 7Sage since the beginning, and I also happen to be a full-time LSAT tutor. Rather than clutter discussions with shameless self-promotion, we thought this announcement post would be the best way to inform you folks about how to go about getting private tutoring.

You can have a lesson with me from anywhere in the world via Skype or Google Hangout. Whether you want a someone to walk you through the entire process, or just someone to talk to for an hour or two about a couple of sticking points (or anything in between!), I'm your guy.

My standard tutoring rate is $250/hour. However, due to my excellent working relationship with JY and Alan, I'm giving a 10% discount (down to $225/hour) if you're enrolled in the 7Sage program! Just send me a study buddy request and some kind of proof that you've paid for the course (any tier).

You can see testimonials from my students here:

If you decide that you'd like to receive some tutoring, don't post in this thread - drop me a line via the contact form on my website and we'll make it happen. Be sure to include your 7Sage name and any relevant information you'd like me to know. Please also feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns you may have.

See you guys around the forums, and happy studying!

Scores on retake PTs

I just got a 177 on PT 67 in a proctored environment. :D I don't know how accurate this score is since I've taken the test before (out of takes!) and know the infamous zones game very very well (drilled it at least 10 times). But hey, I guess my logic is still dead on and I'll blind review later.

RC -1

LR -3 (-1 for not bubbling due to time)

LG 0

So my question is: how happy should I be? It's a retake, so realistically, this is an inflated. I took it in early May the first time and scored a 166.

I seem to be scoring only in the 170s now. Probably because these are all retakes! My lowest score is a 173. Am I basically screwed for Sept? :(

I've been watching a lot of the logic games videos and see a difference between open ended games and those that you need to make inferences for. Are there any telling signs that you need to make inferences, or is this simply intuition you need to acquire through practice?

The study schedule gives 12 hours as the recommended time to complete the Practice Test's, complete blind review and then go over questions you missed with video explanations. I'm wondering how long this actually takes other people to accomplish? Can anyone give me a rough estimate of how long that process takes for them.

Logic games question

I am working on logic games, and they definitely seem to be the section that I need to improve the most in. One of my biggest problems is knowing when to make inferences, knowing when to split up the board, and knowing when it's time to head to the questions.

I get really intimidated by the games and don't feel confident as I work through the scenarios. I always run out of time when I time myself. Everything makes sense when I watch the games on video, but it's very hard for me to make deductions on my own.

From what I've seen on the course, repeating the same game over and over with correct inferences will allow me to make inferences in similar games. Is that really true? What would be the best thing for me to do?

Hi

Wondering if others are seeing this. There used to be a chart for how many incorrect/correct questions on the exam in LSAT Analytics. I dont see that chart anymore.

I can see where you used to be able to select if you wanted to view incorrect/correct, individual/stacked, and blind review/actual. The selections are sitting above 'Section Performance.' but the chart is missing.

I've tried a few different browsers, but am getting the same "error."

Pace for September Exam

Hi everyone. I am taking the 7sage course, and I am about halfway through. I am taking the LSAT for the second time in September and am aiming for a score in the high 160's-low 170's. I have the next two months to dedicate to this full time, and am willing to do whatever it takes to get better.

Right now, I am at the Sufficient Assumption portion of the course but am skipping ahead to finish all of the logic games sections (my weakest section). I want to finish the course as soon as possible and start taking multiple practice tests over and over. I am a little overwhelmed with needing to finish the course, do blind reviews, and do clean copies of logic games over and over.

What is a good point for me to finish the course, and am I considered behind schedule?

7Sage Website Gods,

I love being able to take the PT1-35 LG sections timed and then easily check answers after BRing them by clicking on Resources > Logic Game Explanations.

I would love to be able to do the same thing as I work on LR sections from those same tests. I have the questions already, but to find answers, I have to "score" a PT for the relevant test, then find the question explanation links, then afterwards delete the "scored" PT from my history so it doesn't throw off my analytics.

Any chance you could add a page that would only be visible based on your membership level, and that is formatted like the LG Explanations page, but for LR questions?

If such a resource already exists, or there is an easier way than my current solution, and I just haven't found it, could you point me in the right direction?

Many thanks,

-Joe

I'm currently taking the 7sage course for the September 2014 LSAT. Everything is going really well, and I'm learning a lot. Logic games are definitely the section I need the most work in, and I think repetition is the way I will see the most improvements. I like the method of memorizing inferences and doing clean copies of specific games each day. However, I'm curious as to which games I should choose.

I am now only using the games mentioned in the course. I know that there are a ton of practice tests with games sections. Are there specific games out of those sections that would be beneficial memorizing? I can't do repeat every game over and over, so I want to make the best use of my time.

I am having a very difficult time in setting up the premises and conclusions on sufficient assumption problem sets 1 and 2... How are you doing them? Are you also having trouble setting them up? Tips?

I was breezing through the course with ease up until this part.
