Hi everyone,

Been on 7Sage since earlier this summer and have gone through the coursework. Now I'm working on PrepTests. I have access through PrepTest 55 and plan on upgrading to get access to the full PrepTest library.

I've seen people comment on how the LSAT changes over time - usually to get more difficult and ensure the curve. Anyone have a general timeline of the step changes, e.g. Preptests 55-68 are one level of difficulty (usually LG), but then Preptests 69 onward jump it up a notch in the RC section, etc?

Sorry if this is a duplicate post.

Is there a summary of all of the different question types for LR that briefly explains the strategy for handling each of them? I am not opposed to putting one together myself, but if there is already one available, well then that saves me some time!! Thank you.

So i have the premium pack now, but i will take the test on September which will be digital. So i want to upgrade to ultimate which has up to PT 71. However, is ultimate+ worth it since it has the latest PTs? or there isn't much difference between ultimate and ultimate+?

So I'll be finished with CC and taking my first real PT on June 4th. From June 4th to July 23rd I should be able to get in 2 PT's a week (14 PT's total) with drilling in each section (mainly LR and LG) throughout the weeks. I plan on doing one PT on a Monday and the other on like a Friday/Saturday so I can drill in the days between. I'm hoping this is a good strategy, my first cold-PT put me at about 151/152, and my target goal is at least a 160. Any advice?

Hey everyone, I've been noticing in PTs that my second LR section score is significantly lower than the first LR section. Has anyone else had this issue? How did you get past it? Unfortunately, I feel like I mentally check out by the time I get to the second LR section because I just want it to be over with. Any advice would be greatly appreciated because it's really bringing my PT scores down.

I have worked abroad for the last decade and my undergraduate and master's degrees were attained far in past. I think Moses wasn't shaving yet when I got my MA. I am not deterred by the notion of having my LOR translated, but I do worry about the authors' facility with LSAC's English-only website.

If anyone knows about the step-by-step process for uploading LOR, I would like to translate it. I have asked LSAC for the same with screen shots, but am preemptively asking here in case they come up gor nisht.

Of course, in the event that LSAC comes through, then all of your birthdays will have come at once and I'll be the one doling out the multilingual screen shots.

Thanks in advance? You're welcome in advance? To be concluded...

Hi all, could someone please help me with this question? Its a small grammar thing, but I am stuck!

Obviously, we cannot in any real sense mistreat plants (MP). Plants do not have nervous systems (NS), and having a nervous system is necessary to experience pain. (EP)

The conclusion above follows logically if which one of the following is assumed?__

P: EP -> NS

Plants: /NS

So, /NS -> /EP

C: /MP

A: /NS -> /EP -> /MP

Or, MP -> EP -> NS

I think I know why the correct answer is: "Only organisms that can experience pain can be mistreated". But the other answer choices use the word "any" instead of "only". Is there a difference in the two for sufficient assumption questions ?

Thank you so much!

Hey, I’ve moved on to BRing only circled questions, which is a lifesaver.

BR score actually went up after only doing circled questions because I’m not changing from right to wrong, and it takes me half the time I used to spend on reviewing LR section.

However, I decided to do the rest of the questions before grading, and want to record it separately from my 1st BR score.

I thought I could enter 3rd ACs in the answer sheets because tapping the Q number again after saving it showed 3rd bubble.

But when I saved the 3rd bubble, it just changed my BR score without saving the previous selection...

Is there something I have to check in my account to save them? is there an option to do that at all?

Thank you, and good luck to everyone taking the test on next Monday!!

So I am just now starting logic games and I am somewhat confused on when I should be doing the full proof method. Is that something that should wait until I start to PT, or should I full proof the problem sets from the CC as well? I am completely new to the games, and as expected I struggled on the first sequencing games. I am still having some trouble understanding if I need to go back and do the game over again or not like the full proof method says to do. If so, am I supposed to full proof every single problem set game that I struggle with initially?

I am looking to have a virtual study group for at least 2 hours tomorrow. Game plan is to work on a set of questions slowly and thoroughly, and then test what we learned with a drill set. Focus will be flaw and weaken questions!

Looking for a small group of 2-3 people, 2-4pm EST.

Happy Labour Day yall.

I did the LSAT in January and I have a huge stack of unmarked printed questions (all sections) that I didn't get to during my test preparation. About 200-300 pages in total. I am based in Glassell Park and if anybody in the North East LA area would like them I can drop off or leave on my front porch. Apologies to the moderators if this posting is not allowed.

I've been really trying to study LG for the Jan LSAT. The problem I'm having is that I understand the rules but I diagram the rules/inferences different then JY, thus I get questions wrong or questions take me forever to do. For example on Preptest 5 Game, I wrote the classes down and distributed the grades. While JY in his video did the opposite. If I use JY's diagram, every question goes by extremely fast. How can I get better at diagramming games that I am seeing for the very first time?

Hello!

I just recently finished the core curriculum and took PT 36 so I can do at least one PT a week until test day (July 23rd). I feel that going through the BR process with PT 36 has helped in some regards, however I feel I need to be drilling problem sets in addition to the BR. Unfortunately, I only have access to the 10 or so PT's provided in the Starter Pack because I cannot afford the more expansive options. I would like to do all of those under timed conditions, so drilling those sections won't work.

So for drilling sections and game/question types, should I just buy some of the earlier PT's (1-35) through 7sage, or are there other resources out there (like "10 Actual, Official LSAT PrepTests") that you guys have used when short on cash?

Thanks for the help!

I would love someone to help me with the understanding the underlying flaw. I have seen this stimulus type, and it seems very cookie cutter for me. In my understanding, the argument's flawed reasoning is that the argument assumes that 1. warmer air increases humidity, and 2. that the only thing that can cause an increase in rainfall is an increase in temperature of warm air. However, I am seeing some other patterns, it goes from a probable modality (using tends to be humid) to a highly likely modality (in the conclusion).

I’m looking for someone who lives relatively near Rowland heights California who is willing to meet with me at the local library to study at least once a week. Im also willing to commute to Orange County if necessary. I’m scoring in the low 160’s so would like someone scoring in the high 160’s or 170?

I’m specific about the score requirement because I have studied with someone who has the same score as I had and we had the same questions

Hello! I am taking the exam in January, might also retake it in February. I am looking to start a small study group with people who are seriously interested in diving deep and dissecting LR stimuluses. I have noticed that analyzing LR stimulus helps me see the LR structure that repeats on every LSAT test. If you are serious about it please message me individually. Suggestions on how to approach this LR analysis are also appreciated.
