Anyone close to Emerald Isle North Carolina for a study group??

Anybody out here in NJ studying for either February or June 2018? Shoot me a message, I'd love to meet.

Random post echoing other's thoughts about these last few dates of waiting for scores. I never thought I would say this but I don't know what I would be doing if it weren't for exams. I just realized that if I wasn't being forced to study pretty much all the time for these midterms, I don't think I could stand this last stretch of waiting. Sure, comparative political economy may sound boring at first glance, but it's a heck of a lot better than nervously fretting over something I can't change.

Anyways, back to studying I go (Thursday come faster).

Hey guys, I'm planning on taking the LSAT in February. Would like to form study partners in Phoenix area. email fawzinur1@gmail.com

Is it possible to schedule the LSAT flex in the middle of the night? Taking the test in the middle of the night would be the most safe option for minimizing disturbances for my environment, but I was wondering if it was even possible.

Are available test times on a 24-7 basis for your region? In previous proctorU registrations I only looked at the specific time I wanted so I didn’t really look at how wide-ranging the times that they had were.

For instance, if I was in the region (Europe, Africa, and the Middle East), would the time slot “3 am” in the UK even be an option for me haha, or are all the time slots limited to just early morning to reasonable nighttime hours. If anyone remembers that would be helpful!

Side note:

IF ProctorU has 24-7 availabilities, I am also of course curious to hear about any health/scientific comments on health impacts/performance of switching to a nocturnal life. (I used to wake up at 9 AM, sleep at midnight). It would be a major change, but there are 16 days to go until Jan 19 so I think it's possible to adjust to being nocturnal. Just not sure if there might be unknown consequences.

What is the deal with these? When we are done with them is it any sort of copyright to give them away?

I live in N. Oakland but am working in SF from 10-5 Mon-Fri. I am looking for anyone who like to meet up either in SF or Oakland to study together. I have been self studying since Feb and postponed from June to Sept bc my PT scores were not high enough. I think a study group will be very beneficial! Pls let me know if you're interested, I promise I don't bite.

There's a lot of information going around about the LSAT...so much that it's often hard to tell what's true and what's not. Fortunately, ZeSean and Henry are here this week to separate fact from fiction and break down some of the commonly-heard LSAT myths. Tune in to this episode for some LSAT myth-busting!

I'm currently in NYC (LES), just graduated, and determined to devote my entire summer to studying for the LSATs so I can take the upcoming September 2017 LSAT. I think it would be mutually helpful to BR with someone else!

I have a schedule set up to take every preptest between 36-80. I'm also in the September 2017 study group on Sundays at 7PM. I made my schedule to cater around that one. Please let me know if you're interested!

Anyone from the Detroit area prepping for the February test?

I am taking the Feb 2016 test and looking for friends to study with!! Let me know if your in the area.

Just in case you need another prediction

Hi,

I'm having a lot of trouble eliminating D on this question, and would love some help if possible! My reasoning:

D) Was the species to which the recently discovered [earlier] dinosaur [X] belonged related to T. rex?

If yes, and T. rex descended from X, this seems to strengthen the author's argument as it suggests that the T. rex features evolved in an earlier ancestor that evidently did not require them for its size. In this scenario the features would have just been passed down to the T. rex, offering an alternate explanation to the scientists' hypothesis and strengthening the author's argument.

If no, and the T. rex and X were unrelated, I feel like this would weaken the author's argument as it would make it difficult to compare the two dinosaurs. Even if X did not evolve these features to support its size, T. rex still may have and it's just a coincidence that they are similar. This would leave us back where we started as the author's evidence for calling the scientists' hypothesis into question is now irrelevant.

Any help clearing this up would be greatly appreciated, I've spent way too long on this question :P

Is anyone JST?

Is there a good method or trick to eliminate all possible worlds for distributions? I just completed a game and couldn't figure out if I exhausted all possible distributions or not. I usually guess for the most part.

thanks.

I live in Birmingham, AL and wondering if anyone else currently taking the course lives nearby! I am currently studying to re-take the LSAT in February. Anyone? lol

yep, as expected, LG3 f-Ed me over. But it's ok because I didn't suck at the other sections. I'm also well within the median for my goal school. But yeah, Game3, how cruel a fate.

Redacted

Proctors: The student of the law school proctored the test. They were very cool and quiet. Enforced all rules reasonably and gave proper 5 min warning in all sections. Many test takers had water on the desk while the test was going on, and they didn't object to it even though they probably could according to test instructions.

Facilities: Very good. The test was held in Bannan Hall building in its lecture halls on the first floor. Since the test was on Saturday, the parking garage right in front of the building was open for all and had no parking restrictions. It takes a minute to walk from the parking to the test room.

What kind of room: It was a large lecture Hall with continuously running desks. The room was very quiet and it's almost soundproof from all outside noises.

How many in the room: May be 75-80 test takers per lecture hall. The hall had 6-7 rows of seating and every row had about 10-13 test takers on average. There was plenty of space between test takers so no one felt cramped for space.

Desks: The desks were lecture hall styled continuous running desks. So everyone in the same row is pretty much on the same desk as it runs across the hall. The chair didn't have any armrest but it was not needed either. Overall very comfortable seating arrangement.

Left-handed accommodation: I am right handed and didn't pay attention to it. But the desk/chair style was handedness-agnostic, i.e. it should be just as easy for left-handed as for the right one.

Noise levels: Very quiet, I didn't hear any noise.

Parking: Right next to the Hall, less than 1 minute walk away is a large parking garage with free parking on weekends.

Time elapsed from arrival to test: There was a long line outside at 8:30. Everyone was seated in their desks by about 9am and I think the test began around 9:30 or so after instructions.

Irregularities or mishaps: Nothing.

Other comments: All in all, a great test center in a very easy to reach location. The proctors are punctual, careful, and cool. The seating arrangement couldn't be beat.

Would you take the test here again? Yes, I took the test here the first time. But this test center usually doesn't hold the June test as the June test is on Mondays when the law school is in session. So I wasn't able to take the test at this location for the retake.

The internal mic on my computer doesn't work. Does anyone know whether or not it'll be okay for me to use the mic on my earbuds to talk with the proctor, or do I need another kind of external mic that doesn't involve having earbuds in? Thanks!

I want to share an update with those of you who had test center issues. I had filed a Test center complaint about JFK University center where test takers were seated too close to each other during the Oct test. This could be a huge distraction during the test. I heard from LSAC and they said they take Test Center complaints very seriously and look into all complaints confidentially.

So any of you who has a Test Center complaint about your test center or JFK University test center, do not hesitate to be on record about it so the issue is resolved at least for the future test takers. There is no downside to it. The complaint has to filed within a certain number of days.

On the old 7Sage, when looking over the question summary it would highlight which parts are the premises and what the conclusion is. Will this feature be added to the new site in the future? Or does it exist on here in the summary and I'm just missing it?

I have taken three practice tests and my raw score gets worse each time I take it (stuck in low 150s). However, my blind review scores are consistently improving. I am discouraged because I feel like my blind review results won’t transfer to my actual LSAT performance. I think I perform about the same on LR and RC.

Any suggestions on how I should organize my studying?

send me a note. I am hitting it hard and could use a buddy!
