I am curious to know if any study groups have formed in Lubbock, TX for the February 2015 LSAT?
I am taking the December LSAT. The last lsat exam i scored a 155. I am looking to score in the 160's/ 170 if possible. If you are serious and in the process of taking timed PT, please send me an email. esthera_09@hotmail.com. I also live in Miami.
I completed most of the core curriculum (90% or so) mid way through October and have been taking PT's ever since then. I have taken 20 PT's at this point and plan on taking 13 more before test day in December. I have an average of 169.5 but recently, on my last 10 or so I have averaged a 172 with 3 or 4 scores of 176 and above. I
know I can dominate this test and I have worked very hard up until this point and plan on continuing to work hard, but does anyone have any tips on how to really make sure you dominate on test day? I took the LSAT in June of 2013 and got a 160 (I choked pretty hard), but now I see the test in such a different way and my scores have reflected that. I am confident in my abilities, but has anyone done anything specific to make sure they are ready to perform when it comes to test day?
I am consistently 100% on LG, 3-4 wrong on LR overall, and 3-5 wrong on RC. I still have yet to feel as dominant on RC as I do on LG and LR, but getting to that level seems almost impossible for me right now, I just don't see RC answers as clear cut as other sections. Does anyone have any elite RC tips that can push me up to the level of perfection?
What other things are high scorers doing before test day that help them achieve peak performance on test day? If anyone has any advice on how to push for that 175 + score on test day, feel free to share.
Thanks!
To prepare for study abroad, exactly five students- M, N, P, R, and T- will learn at least one of four languages: French, Hindi, Italian, and Spanish. No student learns any other language. The following conditions apply:
No student learns all four languages.
At least two of the students learn French.
Any language that is learned by R is not learned by N.
If French is learned by any student, then that student learns Italian.
If Hindi is learned by any student, then that student learns Spanish.
P learns French.
5.) Which one of the following is a pair of languages that CANNOT both be learned by student R?
a. French and Italian
b. French and Spanish
c. Hindi and Italian
d. Italian and Spanish
e. Hindi and Spanish
Book says D. I say B and C are also possible. The only way those answers don't work is if R no longer has to learn the accompanying language with N still does. It DOES say pair which may mean the rules for him can be broken. If true, this is a thinly veiled modifier that I would probably have gotten wrong, possibly i just have to familiarize myself with this test more.
It seems I consistently make 1-3 LR confidence errors per test. If any of you have had this issue, how have you fixed it? Thanks for the help :)
Regarding valid & Invalid arguments is there a list that outlines "Not flawed" arguments? For example, I know that conditional statement i.e.
A-->B
A
-----
B
if structured properly makes this a valid argument,
but are there other ways that the test-makers are testing for such as
causality...
The reason I ask is that from what I can tell so far, is that causality is a method that the test-makers use in the arguments, and yet, they are also flawed causality arguments and we are to find an answer choice that shows their error in the causal relationship.
So I'm using the term valid argument in this post loosely to better clarify my question.
Are there other methods the test-makers use to construct arguments or are there all going to be just conditional or causal?
Thanks

I chose E which is a right answer because C didn't mention about drug which was a sentence right before the blank, so it makes more sense to me.
But I thought C could be an answer too at first.
Can anyone enlighten me why C can't be and E has to be an answer?
Thanks!
Anyone have any tips on how to approach these? Are they essentially just MSS questions?
Hey guys,
I have a quick question for those who have ordered prep tests from Lsac.org. If I order a prep test from Lsac.org, is the test mailed to me or is there an option where I can download it unto my computer and print it out?
I am taking the LSAT in February and could use a study partner to help get ready for this bastard of a test.
I'm living in Jaffa - Tel Aviv right now and taking the test this Monday and hoping against hope that someone out here in the 7sage community is here as well and willing to study with me as I/we prepare this last week.
Evening everyone!
I'm Alexandra. I'm looking for serious study buddies for the Feb 2015. I've been studying while working full time but I need accountability and help with logic games (specifically). Any people interested in the study group can email me at alexandra.k.griffiths@gmail.com.
P.S. I live in Queens and work in Brooklyn. Again, serious inquiries ONLY!! Thank you! :)
I've been trying to make a LG summary and was wondering if anyone has any notes that they'd like to exchange? Just a brief overview of what to keep in mind when encountering each type of game set!
Thanks so much and happy studying!!
So i wished I started preparing for the newer LG types much earlier, but anyways, any tips and suggestions for the ones where the game setup and rules aren't as obvious? Like JY said, put your pencils down and peek at the questions. Any other suggestions? They seem to be getting the better of me.
sooo frustrating. i did well on the lessons, I do the question before listening to J.Y. But then when it comes to the problem sets, I dont do as well. AND, sometimes i get the same amount of answers correct the first time around as I do with blind review but becuase I have changed some of my answer choices the 2nd time around. I dont know how to fix this. Are the “lessons” easier than the problem sets? thanks
The most difficult for me is the Logical Reasoning and I was wondering if anyone had a perfected study guide for me use. I would really appreciate it! Im taking the LSAT in February and am in dying need of help on this one section as of now!
Trying to delete this.
I am having trouble clear printout of pT 49 , it does not seem to print sections 2, 3 and 4 clearly. Section 4 is particularly bad. I know it is not my printer since I am able to print the other PTs (60s) just fine. I am going to try 50 now.
if only constitutes sufficient right? lol
Whoops sorry didn't look at the sticky,
disregard this post!
I'm looking for anybody willing to meet up or at least discuss the lsat over skype. I usually study between 5-8 hours a day and have been practicing around low 170's, but have still have a lot of trouble with timing. I'm willing to help any of you with my strengths which is logical reasoning. I'm just looking for anyone who is very motivated to score very high and can make studying much more interactive by bouncing our minds and methods off each other. Anyways, if you're interested let me know at enzonabiev818@gmail.com. Thank you and wish you all the best of luck!
Imagine getting into your top school...only for it to be rescinded. :(
Study buddy?
Hi there!
Looking for others with advanced degrees studying for the June LSAT and aiming for 175+ and top 5 law schools. It'd be good to find other "non-traditional" applicants and keep each other motivated through this long process. Send me a private message. Thanks!
any suggestions appreciated!
