Quick poll:

How much of an increase in your score have you seen with the 7sage program. I personally have a +12, which puts me in the 160s. I am wondering though what is the general consciences .

Hey guys,

I don't know if I am the only person having this problem but when I click on to my syllabus to continue my course it takes me to the page that says "Enroll in an online LSAT prep course" but I'm already enrolled and my course doesn't expire until June!!! Please help!

is there a short cut key that allows you to pause a video while you're scrolled down below the box the video is being played in (say b/c you're taking notes but after the answer choice of interest has stopped being talked about you want to pause the video). this is a very particular and perhaps unnecessary question but it would probably save a me several minutes over the span of a couple hours.... lol

I wanted to thank the entire staff of 7sage for your excellent program. My first diagnostic test was in the 130's. I almost thought of giving up on the idea of going to LS. I am a 41 AAM and grasping some of the concepts in LG and LR under timed conditions gave me fits. I got your program and studied for a few weeks for several hours per day. This may not seem significantly high but my score I received today was a 155. I was 5 points off from my goal. I it felt great to know I can get untangle the circle talk and head games. Again thanks to you all!

I find myself often finding something very helpful within the comments and discussion for different lessons.

It would be nice if students could bump up / like / upvote / etc comments so that the most relevant and insightful comments/discussions can be seen.

A feature of this sort will help most later in the site's existence when there are hundreds or thousands of comments on one video.

Hey guys/gals,

I'm a very serious undergrad doing 8 to 12 hours of studying LSAT a day, the rest is dedicated for sleep and school.

Shooting for a 170+

Let me know if anyone is in my area and wants to be as serious, or if someone wants to study online by doing the same LSAT tests, problems, comparing our answers/logic, etc.

English major.

Hey all,

Having a hard time finding material around this website. I see that there are some questions after each lesson as practice to do. But where all the 300+ or 900+ or whatever deal you got printable questions? I can't find the link to that. Also, where can I download and print the 6 or 21 LSAT TESTS? Can't find those either.

I am prepping to take my LSAT June 2014 looking for study partners in the Down Town Long Beach, CA area. Fairly new to the LSAT world.Please LMK if interested!

Hi 7sage(rs),

Should I be following the syllabus as is? I'm starting it now and I am a little bit ahead of schedule based on the syllabus. I noticed that the practice tests aren't until the very end. Should I be following it completely straight through and back to back by taking the 4 exams listed at the end of my syllabus or? Sorry if this question has already been asked. Trying to get the best of this program.

Last time I took Power Score and hardly understood anything that was going on. This time around I'm changing my study habits to studying in the morning prior to work given that I work 40 hour weeks and dedicating my weekends to studying also. Any advice on following the syllabus or not would be greatly appreciated. I'm trying to score upper 150s. Thanks!

If anyone is able to explain any of the above questions, I'd be very grateful.

To be more specific:

Q13 - stuck between A and D

Q16 - was able to eliminate C & D, but chose E

Q22 - really didn't understand this one... I chose A under timed conditions, and E during BR...neither of which were correct

Thanks in advance.

I plan on taking the June 2014 LSAT should I not receive my ideal score on the Feb. 2014 one.

I have inadequate knowledge as to whether or not having taken the LSAT twice adversely affects my shot at getting into a good law school. Any thoughts?

If you already have access to the full course:

http://classic.7sage.com/lesson/logic-games-habits-for-speed-and-accuracy/

Otherwise, I'm reproducing the contents of that lesson here. What good habits do you cultivate for LG?

Good habits:

-Tick off rules as you translate them into our visual language.

-Write out rules neatly, close to each other.

-Combine rules with overlapping items.

-Every time you encounter a new rule, think about how it interacts with the game items, the board, and the previous rules.

-Reduce visual clutter.

-Try to split the main game-board into sub-game-boards.

-Remember to check for floaters.

When stuck:

-Sufficient failed, rule irrelevant.

-Necessary satisfied, rule irrelevant.

-Pare down and rewrite your rules that still remain.

-Take stock of what items are left.

-Count the number of items left against number of slots left.

-Close out groups when they are full.

Stop the explanation video after the game-board setup. Try to solve the questions yourself.

3 weeks away :) how's it going, February takers? Feeling good? Report!

In a full LSAT, which games are usually the easiest and which ones are the hardest? I thought it was usually the first one is the easiest, then the remaining 3 are a combination of medium games and hard games (2 medium 1 hard, or 2 hard 1 medium). It's always better to start with the easiest ones so I'm wondering if there is any definite order to the level of difficulty of the games.

Would anyone be kind enough to list the prep tests available for download for the premium and ultimate course?

Hey everybody,

I've been going through the curriculum for a few months now and have just taken my first timed PT. I did not do as well as I had hoped. Introducing the timed element to the questions really through me off, which has slightly discouraged me since I was getting most questions right when going through the syllabus. I know it's only the first test, but I would like to maximize my efficiency from this point forward, can I get some feedback from fellow 7Sager's on how you guys handled the timed element once you started taking PT's, and what method you used from this point on to review and enhance your score? Thanks so much everyone.

I teach quite a bit, and have a number of close friends who teach all over, from ESL teachers in other countries to teachers in high schools and universities -- and depending on the community, but especially in university, one thing that constantly comes up from students is this idea that we are living in a post-racial society.

It's hard to imagine anyone really feeling this way -- but what it suggests overwhelmingly is that so, so many people of this and the adjoining generations are completely sheltered from their own privilage.

I spend a lot of my time thinking about and writing about gender and race issues, and when stuff like the link I'm sharing below comes to the surface, it's hard not to feel sick to my stomach for days -- but it's also why this career choice of ours is important.

It doesn't even matter really what type of law you plan to go into. If you want to be a BigLaw partner and do corporate law, great. If you want to do PI work, double great. But on the road to obtaining that job, we will all be living for three years surrounded by the laws of our country. We will come out of that experience at the very least with a deep appreciation for why law is important, and most especially, the POWER that it has to do both great good and permit great evil.

Check this link out. Get angry over it -- please. Add it to your list of reasons why you want to go to law school: whether you want to work actively to end this kind of bullshit or not, one day after graduation you WILL bump into an opportunity to be a part of righting a wrong. This is the world we live in -- and we are going into one of the few professions that has a shot at changing it.

Let's kill the LSAT. Then, let's dominate in law school. Then, let's be the kind of lawyers and citizens that we want to be surrounded with -- and when opportunities arise to make a difference, let's use that education and experience to PROVE that's what we want.

okay guys im preparing to take this Feb one but im having a problem with LR section.

so, when i do the blind review, I always end up changing 4 -5 answers. and end up getting like 3 - 4 wrongs.

I guess the positive side is that those second guessed answers are mostly right

but Im bit worried as it indicates i would have gotten 8 - 9 wrongs without having a chance to second guess myself.

I had this problem for few weeks now

Any tips or suggestions? help!

They're all over the damn internet. Some are written by obnoxious, pompous, and incredibly aggressive individuals hellbent on degrading certain schools. http://thirdtierreality.blogspot.com/2011/03/pioneers-in-solid-waste-second-tier.html

Others are a bit nicer about what they're saying, but still carry the same message. Essentially, you'd be an idiot in going to law school. http://insidethelawschoolscam.blogspot.com/

How do you guys feel about these blogs? I can't say I'm too happy about their existence as well as the fact that they pop up whenever I'm browsing law schools. A bit discouraging to say the least. Is this all bullshit? All true? Are we all idiots for taking the LSAT and trying to go to law school?

Currently I'm struggling with the LR section mainly because I can't consistently get the weakening questions correct. I do 90-100% on Main Point and Strengthen. Weakening questions on the other hand are a 50-50 accuracy. Anyone know how to improve?

I've noticed that all of my incorrect answers can usually be found in the range of 13-19. Do the questions get harder around this range or is it just me? I was thinking of speeding through the first ten questions to have more time to tackle the ones in the range mentioned above. Any thoughts?

Hi all --

I'm pretty sure I'm posting in the right spot but let please move if I'm not!

In any case I'd like some advice.

I am a college student, but that's it.

My situation started off late January when I started to study for the October 2013 exam. This self-studying (complete with MLSAT and Powerscore bibles) didn't work out for personal reasons. I then decided to try to study again for the December exam, this time with a tutor. This has not worked out because my exam scores are nowhere near (think 150s) where I need them to be (170+). I'm delaying until February and taking a year off to work before law school, but now have been considering delaying until June 2014 in pursuit of a great score.

I have purchased the Complete LSAT package and will be going over it, as well as the recommended practice exams, in preparation for February. Do I have enough time to improve to where I need to be by then? Any experience or recommendations would be great.

Hi everybody! I am new to the 7sage community and I am finding that I am waaaay too slow at these questions! Is that the case with anyone else? On the problem sets I set a fifteen minute timer, and I often have one or two questions left when it goes off! That is pretty bad because that means that I am spending over a minute on each question and probably suggests that I should skip. In general, I think the problem may be choosing my answer choice because I narrow down to two answer choices and then I get stuck deliberating them for only God knows how long! Does anyone have any tips on improving speed other than taking practice tests over time?

Just curious -- I noticed that all of the difficulty ratings seemed to adjust yesterday or the day before, with most of the sections now being rated significantly more difficult than they were before.

Thanks in advance for your response :)
