I scored a 144 on the July flex LSAT and want to score a 155 on the October date. I barely studied the first time, is my goal score too unrealistic or is it realistic? Just need feed back, because I'm very worried. Trying to apply for schools, so I can attend next fall. Help!

I'm currently looking into hiring an admissions consultant for the upcoming Fall 2021 cycle. Would anyone be willing to share their experience with me (good or bad)? I was also wondering if anyone knows whether or not Spivey Consulting offers payment plans. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!

I do not understand why 7Sage teaches "except" as a biconditional. It makes more sense to me to see it as a simple Group 3, where you just negate the sufficient. I've seen other programs teach it this way, too. I'm not trying to get into a comparison argument. I just want to know which is going to be useful to me on the LSAT. Here's an example: "I go to the store, except on Monday." It seems that the aforementioned sentence is the same as "I go to the store, unless it's Monday."

Is there a way to know (after initial setup) whether or not there are any apparent inferences that can be made? I often have trouble knowing if I should spend time searching for inferences or if it'd be better to just work through the questions

7 Sage Sentence:

Practice IS REQUIRED to be a skilled artist.

SA—->P

Loophole Sentence:

One MAN in his time IS REQUIRED to play many parts.

M—->PMPS

Commentary:

I assumed “MAN IS required” to be the necessary and “play man sports” to be the sufficient since MAN IS THE REQUIREMENT?!? (PMS —>M) however, regurgitating that info out loud to myself, I realized within context it didnt make sense; but when does the LSAT ever make an effort to make sense 🤷🏽‍♀️🥴😭...why is that Both statements above mirror one another in terms of terminology but differ in context ?!?! #HELPPP

M——>> PMS

COMMENTARY:

I am confused I assumed “MAN IS required” to be the necessary and “play man sports” to be the sufficient. (PMS —>M) however, regurgitating that info out loud to myself, I realized within context it didnt make sense; but when does the LSAT ever make an effort to make sense 🤷🏽‍♀️🥴I guess I’m curious to know why both sentences aren’t diagramed the same when their both in the same format ?!?!😭... #HELPPP

Hello!

I took the July 2019 LSAT and got a decent score, but have decided to retake this fall to try to boost my score in order to potentially get scholarship money. I really liked using 7Sage the first time studying, but I almost completely went through the lessons when I did it the first time so I'm wondering if it will be as effective the second. I am a year removed from studying and didn't go through a ton of the PTs so I'm wondering if there is anyone who has used 7Sage for two different tests (maybe with some time removed) and what they thought of it!

Thanks!

Has anyone taken this section before?

Luckily, I've been narrowed my LR score down to -2 ~ -3 per section in the 60s.

And I even had -1 on the first LR section of PT 67. But, I somehow got close to -10 or so on the second part of the LR.

This section doesn't really have many 5 star difficulty questions, but I found this section incredibily difficult.

Did anyone have similiar experience? How was your experience?

Thanks in advance! : )

“Some anthropologists argue that the human species could not have survived prehistoric times if the species had not evolved the ability to cope with diverse natural environments. However, there is considerable evidence that Australopithecus afarensis, a prehistoric species related to early humans, also thrived in a diverse array of environments, but became extinct. Hence, the anthropologists’ claim is false.“

Could someone please show me verbatim how to diagram the entire passage Via formal logic and cross reference the mismatched terms that the author used in order to draw the false inference. According to the question it is a mistaken reversal and I am very comfortable diagraming up until the term “however”, after that I got so confused as to what the author was trying to translate.

Now if I’m not mistaken Jy mentioned that because the the author concluded that “the anthropologist Claims were false

ANTHRO CLAIM

“If survive ———-> Cope”

AUTHOR CONCLUSION

“Not survival ——-> Not Cope”

Are those the 2 conditional statements that conflict, that make this entire passage a mistaken reversal ?

Also please keep in mind I kind of dis regarded the premise right above the conclusion because the verbiage is confusing as it doesn’t appear to be a condition statement that I can diagram
