I am taking the LSAT in February and could use a study partner to help get ready for this bastard of a test.

Post your suggestions below ; here’s one of my favourites

Hey guys! Is there anyone in Toronto working full time and taking July LSAT that would want to start a study group for PTs and BR?

I am retaking the LSAT in December and was wondering what everyone is doing for their drill work. I am basically going to drill full sections and review them and find out what my weaknesses are. Any advice?

I posted a question but have now edited it to this as I don't know how to delete it.

What do you guys think of this approach?

Dear 7sagers,

So here's my thoughts on my first online format take for the LSAT:

I loved it for LR! It just felt like the process went way smoother and more efficiently. I don't know if it was because I've been drilling and reviewing LR like mad over the past couple of weeks, but nonetheless, the online LR has some evident advantage in my view. First of all, it helps so much that the clock is on your screen. Checking for the time on my analog watch was just a plain damn nuisance for me. Also, not having to transfer your answers on the scan-tron gives me an extra 2-3 minutes to do more questions. Lastly, the online format in terms of pencil vs. mouse/tablet pen, doesn't allow much time to be fixated on labeling. This indirectly forces you to focus on the structure of the argument instead of circling/underling each and every major detail, which was a bad habit for me.

Now for on the contrary, the online format is a freakin' NIGHTMARE for Games! Having to look up and down at the screen between my setup on scratch paper and the test itself on the monitor was unforgiving for me! Right now I usually get through about 3 games; but this time I could barley do ONE! Uggh, I wish LSAC would allow for having a clean paper version of the games to write on, and then transfer your answers on the computer/tablet. How do you all handle Games online? I folded my scratch paper horizontally, with one bigger side for the diagram, and the smaller side for questions. However this didn't help me at all, so I would dearly welcome any and all suggestion on this for me.

For Reading Comp., I still slightly prefer paper, but I believe I'll be able to adjust for online reading. I also believe that the online version, like LR, doesn't allow much time for obsession over labeling, so it forces you to comprehend the structure of the passage, which is what RC is pretty much all about.

PS: I'm registered for the July test, which seems like a WTF that I just now did an online test. However I'm most likely going to cancel and take advantage of the later free test unless I score a 155 or better. So I'd really like those online LG suggestions please!

I am curious to know if any study groups have formed in Lubbock, TX for the February 2015 LSAT?

Looking to find a study partner. Taking the exam June 9th! I live and work in Brooklyn you can reach me at michellelonardelli@gmail.com!

Morning everyone–

I am in the process of drafting a diversity statement for my applications, but I am not fully convinced I need to write one. My PS already addresses my religious/racial diversity. My diversity statement would just be highlighting a different aspect of my diversity not mentioned in my PS. I feel as though it would be repetitive to submit both, but I would love to hear y'alls input on this. Thank you in advance!

How’d it go for everyone? Personally, I was annoyed by the paper test after all of the digital prep I’ve done. I had two LG sections and I’m praying that the art gallery was experimental.

Anyone in the area want to meet up? I usually study in a WM library, the WBurg Regional, or the bookstore in Merchant's Square!

Hi,

I chose E, but the answer was A.

Here's supposedly why the answer is A: given that the question is asking for what would "most support the author's claim [on lines 24-27] about the relationship between muralism and the Mexican Revolution", people are treating this question as if the "claim about the relationship" is the statement on 26-27: that the muralists reflected important innovations in the art world (thus leading to the correct answer = answer choice A.

Here's why I chose E: I thought that a relationship had to be a connection between the Mexican Revolution and muralism, so I was focusing on the phrase that muralism was the result of changes that the Mexican Revolution represented (line 24-26). This led me to choose E, since this looked like the only answer choice that could possibly support a claim regarding the relationship between Muralism and Mexican Revolution.

In other words, I didn't agree with A's reasoning because the claim on 26-27 only talks about muralism and doesn't connect it with Mexican Revolution.

Can anybody explain how answer choice A was correct? How were we supposed to know that this claim regarding this relationship was that described on lines 26-27 rather than that described on 24-26?

Any #help would be appreciated!

PT30 Game 2

The six messages on an answering machine were each left by one of Fleure, Greta, Hildy, Liam, Pasquale, or Theodore...

Anyone know of similar games? This one cost me a perfect LG section... which was infuriating because it's so easy once you get it. Wanting to try a similar game fresh.

I feel like soon as I can cement this I will be good! I'm challenged to properly identify whether one can pronounce 'X' or 'Y' of a given statement as a certain condition BECAUSE the logical indicator preceded it or not. Are there circumstances with rules for when it does not? I keep getting caught in the confusion between how to label what is before and after the logical indicator. And yes, I have gone through the lessons on this.

J.Y. can you assist with this #help

Sorry, I had a question but it was answered and there's no option to delete. Please ignore this

when it asks *which one of the following could be all of the solos that are traditional pieces?* does this mean it asks a scenario in a particular sub game board or all possible places in all sub game boards? how do they ask differently if it asks about possible spaces one can be put in all sub game board??

if only constitutes sufficient right? lol

I haven't seen this question posted in past discussions so I'll go ahead and ask.... I am currently waitlisted at my top-choice school and am planning to write a LOCI. However, I was able to get a 4th LOR to add to my file. To make it even more interesting, my new LOR is from my district's Congressman (I was an intern during my Junior year in undergrad) BUT instead of submitting the LOR to the school his office sent it directly to my house. I was debating on writing my LOCI and addressing the fact that I have a new LOR and snail-mail both to the admissions office. Originally I was going to email my LOCI but I want to keep everything together. Does this sound like a good plan? Any other advice?

Hi, I'm new to studying so I'm having trouble with making an inference. The stimulus states that "none of the responses among terminal cancer patients to various therapeutic measures has been more positive than the response among those who consumed shark cartilage". The powerscore bible states that we can infer "(consuming) shark cartilage has received a more positive response than any other therapy". First, how would we diagram this or is it even diagrammable? Second, what fundamental is this testing? Is it logical opposites? Thanks in advance and happy new year!

So, JY says that we need to use timed BR when doing a section of LR, but what if i'm still going thru the CC and haven't gotten to the point of PTs yet? do i still time myself while doing the cluster of such as weakening questions? #help

P.S. I live in Queens and work in Brooklyn. Again, serious inquiries ONLY!! Thank you! :)

Hey guys, I just started studying for the LG portion of the exam. I was wondering if you had any tips for learning what to look for in the answer choices. For example if the question stem asks, "All of the following could be true except . . . " JY, without skipping a beat, says okay we are looking for 1 Must be false and the 4 others could be true. Not the best example, but its the best I could come up with right now haha. Thank you in advance!
