I am working through the CC right now, still only in LR. What is your strategy for reviewing information? Everything is comprehensive and I know that I am retaining what I've learned thus far because I apply it in the exercises, but I feel like I couldn't necessarily summarize the information, I just know it mechanically for the most part. Do you guys go back or use other sources? Time is precious as I am taking it in August, I just want to make sure I am not losing information.

This question had me sorta off the rails briefly cuz I was expecting to see a cookie-cutter flaw problem. As if laughing at my assumption, the dilemma posed by it vexed me. I was torn between two competing choices, (B) and (E). In the end, I was convinced that any safety protections like child safety seats demand the observation of rules with rigor should one want to maximize "security benefits from them".If a parental figure fails to install the seat properly, relying on a wrongful belief that the mere existence of it would be a fool-proof/copper-bottomed guarantee or a surefire thingy for "child safety in the vehicle", then he or she could engender more probabilities for putting it in jeopardy. But (B) was such a clickbait and I was almost catfished. The more children are on the road, the more they could be exposed to dangers underway. Thus, I was baffled by the difficulty of this question at the outset. I was wondering whether I am being an outlier here. Of course, every question asks us to find "The Best Answer Choice"by eliminating all the others, however viable and feasible they are. What are ur thoughts on this?
For example the LR Section Review live class says:
Do you want to cover logical reasoning questions and also timing strategy? If so, this is the class for you! Each week, we will review specific questions on a particular LR section before going through the questions. Check out the notes each week to try the section in advance before joining the class!
But where do you find those?
Hi all! I'm looking for some suggestions on structuring my study schedule for the upcoming September test.
A bit on my background:
I started studying around mid May on Khan Academy/LSAT Trainer. First diagnostic was 155, upped it to 161 a week later after actually learning how to do LGs. However, I felt super unstructured and wanted class-like direction so here I am! On my diagnostic here, I got a 157: -3 on LG (personal best, but abnormally good) -10 RC (100% accurate, my worst section), -5 & -9 on LR (little worse than normal)
My goal is 170+ and I learn the best by doing, which brings me to my issue:
On my current 7sage study schedule, I'll have to PT literally everyday for two months straight. Obviously I know the study schedule isn't the only right method, but I'm unsure when to start PT'ing regularly. I'd like to start soon and get through as many tests as possible. Should I touch on a module or two for each section to get some strategy, start PT'ing and then go through CC as normal? I know I have a limited amount of PTs so I don't want to waste them. Are there any modules you felt were the "fundamentals" of each section?
Additional question: I've found that I've been anticipating the the end of PTs because I'm looking for immediate gratification to see if my score improved. Is this an endurance thing that I'll stop over time or should I delay BR to the next day to curb this habit? I know BR should be done fresh but I'm concerned this habit is distracting me and causing me to rush.
Thanks so much!!
Hello, I'm looking for study partners to review practice tests with, and go over hard questions?
Hi guys,
I know that it's not good to start in the Spring semester compared to the Fall semester but let's just say that I start in the Spring semester then plan on transferring after 1L to a better law school.
Is it actually possible to transfer after 1L with spring semester start? or do you know any schools that do accept?
I know that you can for the Fall semester start and I know that it's going to be difficult and people will say I shouldn't attend if I plan on transferring to a new school.
But besides all that, is it possible?
Any experience or opinions?
Thank you.
Let's make those marginal gains in this marginal game.
Looking for like-minded LSAT loving loonies, preferably already PTing 170+ and can BR 175-180 with a goal of achieving PT-BR convergence and planning to absolutely kill it for the August 2022, maybe beyond.
Intending to discuss and document inferences that break LGs wide open, reading strategies that illuminate the densest RC passages, authoritatively reasoning the most convoluted LR questions, identifying and dodging LSAT writers' most subtle question traps, and making the most of all 2100 precious seconds of an LSAT timed section. Also intend to analyze common patterns of LSAT sections and questions with the intent of being able to identify inferences and predict questions and anticipate answers before even attacking the questions.
Planning on regularly scheduled strategy discussion workshopping, coordinated competitive timed PT takes, and exhaustively thorough and accurate blind review. Goal of at least a few hours of productive LSAT time daily.
DM with your info and availability, maybe a list of some of your untouched PTs. Will determine a workable schedule and setup zoom sessions or a discord server. Let's gooooo.
I am located in the bronx, and would love to meet up in the library to study a few times a week if possible.
I have the June LSAT, and I took a PT two days ago and bombed the logic sections. -10 on experimental and -7 on the scored one. I aced the first games, but both times, I encountered some kind of layered sequence (grouping, twist), and I found myself running out of time and guessing.
I specifically took PT91, and the two killers were the electrician game and the crop rotation game. I've drilled since and realized I've tried to categorize first, but how the heck do you do these quickly?
Hi all,
I've been fool-proofing LG for the past week and a half, and as it pertains to sequencing games, it's become pretty clear to me that box items typically exert the most pressure on the board. Hence, whether it's a rule/question-driven game, looking at where to first place the box item will yield key inferences for the other rules. Along those lines, I noticed in some sequencing games with a twist that a rule preventing items from a sub-category from being next to other items in that same sub-category also exerts extreme pressure on the board (i.e. the notoriously difficult PT68G4, and to a much lesser extent, PT65G2). If we were to compare these two generic rules, it seems to me that the latter rule exerts even more pressure than the former. In other words, we should focus our attention first and foremost to the sub-category rule, even before a box rule in a scenario where both appear. Does this sound right to y'all? Also, if you guys have similar findings on some other generic rules that help you make inferences in different types of games, I'd appreciate it if you could share! Thanks and good luck on the studying!
So sorry for the promptness - I guess it doesn't matter too much, but today is my last pt before october exam. should i take pt 89 or 83 as my last one?
And my tutor told me to not look at the score - as this can cause overestimation / overconfidence or anxiety / nerves depending on how I do ? my average right now is a 165.8-166. What do you guys think?
I'm having a really rough time with creating a study guide and how to even approach studying.
Can you recommend any study guide and studying tips that have worked for you? I'm willing to try different methods to see which one would be best for me.
For the time scheduling of the lsat that is done through Proctor U, does anyone know if we need to create an account with Proctor U before scheduling or do we wait for the email to come in with instructions? I tried to create an account but I didn't know what institution to put.
Hi guys! I just started with the v2 core curriculum and I think it'll be a great idea to get a study buddy(ies) to help each other through this insane process. Lmk if you're interested! I'd love to connect over discord since it is so easy to use. Thanks!!
How many preptests should we be taking a month before our lsat?
i am doing cc rn. stressed out already. just kinda wanna know if new pts are harder.
Hello fellow 7sagers, I am taking the June LSAT, so I have just over a week left of preparing! I am planning to take PrepTest 83 tomorrow morning, 6/2/22, and would like to know if anyone would like to also take it and then do a zoom call sometime in the afternoon to blind review the test together? This will be my second to last practice test before the real exam, currently have an average prep test score of 163. Message me if you would be interested and we can set something up!

I was wondering if anyone knew how long it took for the LSAC to release past LSAT tests for practice? For example, I took the LSAT in November 2022 and want to look over that test but when would it be available on Law Hub/to everyone?
Hi!
I apologize if this has been asked already but I couldn't find information on this! I was wondering if we signed up past the deadline for the 45$ score preview fee, would the 75$ fee be waived if we have a fee waiver or does this only apply to the 45$ fee?
Thank you in advance!!
Is it alright to give examples that are not stated in the prompt to support your ideas? I completed writing PT 82 about the filmmaker, and I found myself talking a little bit about creativity and potential advertising opportunities instead of focusing solely on the furnishings of the locations.
Hi all,
I am still waiting to hear back from a couple of schools, I applied end of December/early January. With deposit deadlines coming up/some already passed I believe sufficient time has gone by. I have seen mixed advice online whether or not to send a LOCI before you hear back at all.
Is it inappropriate to send a short email reiterating my interest and commitment to the school?
Thank you!
Hi, I'm making a Discord group for the June & August LSAT.
I'm not sure if links are allowed, but check it out below:
When i use scratch paper on the test am i able to quickly write down, For example, lists of sufficient and necessary condition indicators? since it is my own paper and have to go in with it blank anyway i would assume i can write down whatever is in my mind at the strat but would like clarification.
i struggle remember indicator words when under time crunch but if i get them on paper in the start from memory, is this ok?
Is a writing board allowed for the online LSAT (just a wooden/plastic board to place the scratch paper on), most table surfaces aren't conducive to placing the paper directly on them and writing on the same. I have mailed LSAC but just wanted to know if anyone who has taken the online LSAT has used it or has been asked by the Proctor not to use it?
