I have heard that some tests are easier compared to other....is this true? If so, usually during which test date?
I am prepping to take my LSAT June 2014 looking for study partners in the Houston,TX area.Fairly new to the LSAT world.Please LMK if interested!
Just an FYI, for the preptests on the syllabus, after you click continue to the "Download and take the preptest" it goes to the "check and review your answers", but then it says "done" and sends you back to the syllabus as opposed to "continue" for the "Review every question and every section". Not really a problem, you just have to manually click on it from the syllabus page. Just thought I'd let you guys know.
Hey all,
I've been struggling with a problem, that is, repeating my mistake on some old questions, since the first day of my prep. At first, I made sure I understood the rationale behind the right answer and the wrong ones. Later on, maybe a week later, I find myself repeating the old mistake. I tried my best to internalize what I learned from the mistakes. My method is to cut off the questions and make them into flashcards, which seems to have helped me on this front. Do you guys have some helpful methods to really learn from the mistakes you made?
Thanks!
Hey all, I tested yesterday; I was a weather reschedule for the Feb 8th test.
I thought I'd just take a moment and let anyone who's interested know a bit about how a rescheduled test could potentially be a bit different than what you're preparing for =)
So in the event that you have to take a rescheduled test (I guess this is only likely during the winter season tests), be aware that you may run across a test whose LG go back to single-page format (I was a bit surprised for this when I opened up my test). In addition, while the RC section seemed pretty modern (I think as a result of needing to have the comparative section), the LR seemed very dated, and almost definitely were indeed. This seemed obvious to me, because (1) The wording was much more similar to the 40's than the 50's, 60's or 70's, and (2) the question content dated themselves at times pretty obviously (reference to the current popularity of the desktop PC and such).
LG were also -- for lack of a better way to describe them -- weird, just like they were in the 40's and before.
All of that to say, if you find yourself rescheduled, it might be worth your time to practice a LG section in the old style beforehand, and to maybe take or retake a PT in the 40's (which are just so much different from the 60's on) just incase =) certainly not a necessity by any means, but just be aware of the possiblity of an older-feeling rescheduled test!
Did anyone take the LSAT today for the Feb reschedule? Please msg me if you did.
Anybody shoot June, 2014?
There is actually one MSS question i can’t figure out myself: Practice Test4-Section 1-Question17. I am having trouble deciding between B and C. Can someone help? Thanks!
So I finished the 7Sage course after 5 weeks and started my Preptests this week. The schedule has me doing two Preptests a week until the June LSAT.
During the course I was jam packed with work everyday. And this week after doing my first PrepTest on Monday I leisurely finished up Blind Review and a second review of my incorrect answers by Wednesday ( I could have finished it all by Tuesday). Anyway, I'm starting to feel a bit unproductive, coming off the last month of working really hard on the course.
Is there something else I can add, besides doing another Preptest a week? The schedule has me completing 36-71 by June.
Anything inexpensive that I can use to hone LSAT skills during the extra time during the week? Review the course?
or .... what am I doing wrong?
Thanks
Hey everyone, we rolled out a new feature recently that lets you share your LSAT results with others. You can find it at http://classic.7sage.com/review-lsat-share/.
Why do I want to share my results?
If you share your results with study buddies, you can help one another see what you need to work on. Makes studying more collaborative and interactive.
Share with your tutor and they'll have the most in-depth information on your LSAT strengths and weaknesses available anywhere. Maximize the impact of your tutor.
Are you awesome at the LSAT? Post on the forum offering to provide feedback to anyone who shares their results with you. It's a great way to help others out and show off your expertise.
How do I share my results?
Go to: http://classic.7sage.com/review-lsat-share/ and enter the email address of the person you would like to share your results with in the bottom right where it says "Share with:". This will give them access to your results.
If you want access to someone else's results, enter their email where it says "Request sharing with:".
What if the person I want to share with doesn't have an account?
No problem, we can send them an email letting them know you want to share your results. They'll get a link to sign up for free and access your results.
Maybe meet up once a week to go over material or PTs. Let me know :)
Looking for someone to study with for the June 2014 LSAT. I've been studying awhile for this test, so I have most of the concepts down. I'm in the Midwest, so please consider different time zones. Thanks.
Alex.
I am planning to take the LSAT this June 2014, I took the LSAT in December and after studying for a year I went from a diagnostic of 139 to a score of 155(Dec 13). I used Blueprint, Manhattan, Powerscore and of course 7sage. I am wondering how can I use 7sage to continue my studies and reach my goal of 160+? Is this a good idea?
Hey guys, I'm starting my Preptests tomorrow and have a couple questions.
I'm assuming when taking Preptests, no one guesses on the answers left blank after time runs out? Just making sure.
And do you submit two scores into the 7Sage Scorer? What you finished and then Blind Review?
I just want to get an idea of what everyone's routine is
I'm thinking
1. Take Preptest
2. Check Score
3. Blind Review
4. Check Blind Review Score
Sound about right?
Can't be only me

This took me probably 10 minutes to eke out the right answer. I kept thinking that the assumption was that all poets were writers because it clearly does not state that but that wasn't the answer choice. I'm still confused as how to get to work this conditional out. Please halllppppp!
I was just wondering if anyone else likes doing sudoku games. I used to think that Sudokus are only for people nearing the age for Alzheimer's, but it's actually pretty fun and they share some similarities with LG sections. Just a recommendation for anyone trying to do something productive while taking breaks!
So if you are like me, I find it a pain in the butt to open each individual PDF for each section and have to go through the printing process for each one. Not that its terrible, but there is an easier way. I download all the PDFs for each section all at once. You can then to go this site : http://merge.smallpdf.com/ and drag all the PDFs to that section and they will merge them all into one document! I find it especially helpful on the logic games. Its also an easier way to store them in a folder so you can easily go back and print them without going through the lessons and redownloading.
Hope this helps someone!
Hey guys I know a lot of people recommend just relaxing the day before but is it ill-advised to do an actual test. I was planning on resting only half the day. Share your thoughts.
Hello everyone,
this is my first post, so go easy on me.
I am assuming that everyone here wants to become an attorney, so I just wanted to pose a question, which has been on my mind for the last couple of days.
Question: If you were to not make it as an attorney, for whatever reason (e.g difficulty in job placement), what would your back up "dream career" be?
I will go first, personally I have two dream careers tied for first place, which are 1) Cyber Crime Detective 2) Becoming an entrepreneur in a tech related field (Sort of like J.Y)
@ J.Y Don't worry I don't plan on making a site for the lsat.
I am studying LSAT preptests. I would like to discuss your thinking behind test questions and anything else needed to brush up on. I prefer meeting via Skype or an online chat method. You can email me at create.jewels@gmail.com if interested to have one.
Hi all!!!
I'm on week 3 of a 19week study schedule. I'm going through little by little and Im on schedule. Some concepts have been easier than others to grasp right away.
I'd like to hear about your(newbies and veterans) experiences. I feel a bit overwhelmed sometimes that I wont beable to remember everything in the curriculum. haha
questions of interest:
1) is it more important to stay on the study schedule or to ensure that we have a very strong grasp on the material before moving to the next topic?
2) what are you doing in addition to watching the videos of the core curriculum?
Thank you!
Hey everyone! Hope all who took the February test did well! So I self studied for the December test with powerscore, found 7sage at the very very end and used the free resources. Now I will be taking the June test, I purchased the medium priced package here because I loved the free materials when studying for December as well as the BR approach. Now I have a question, I used up a lot of the practice tests because I assumed I would only be taking the LSAT once, I haven't done any tests from the 40s, a couple from the 50s, and then maybe 2 very recent tests. Now I'm planning on taking all the tests included with my plan, should I take them out of order and take the ones I've done before first? Leaving the fresh ones before test day, or the other way around? Thanks!
To all who study this test,
As I first started to study the LSAT I was immediately drawn to my score. Even after one week of practice I was so concerned with a 160 that I would pause the timer, spend an extra 3 minutes on a curve breaker question then continue the test. This practice method showed me that I was capable of a 165 however, I was not practicing like it was the real thing.
When I was taking the Dec. LSAT, I immediately became nervous and flustered that time was slipping by and there was no option to pause for a question. By not feeling in control of the test, the test controlled me.
I received my score of 152 and as it is disappointing, this mark couldn't be more of a blessing. In life much like the LSAT, failure will come and obstacles will seem tiresome and daunting. The key is to reaffirm faith and believe that the light is at the end of the tunnel. This mark showed me how bad I want to study law and I realize that I can handle failure but I can't handle giving up. What I realize now is that no matter how bad your PT's are, you will grow and succeed for when the real test comes. I hope this little informative shows you that there are no short-cuts for success and I found this out the hard way. I hope everyone can understand that a score today does not mean the same score tomorrow...now go get that score you want.
