My university hands out A+ (on official transcripts) but it's counted as a 4.0 and counts it the same as an A. When LSAC does my CAS report, will they count the A+ on my transcript as a 4.33 or use my school's grading guidelines and still mark it as 4.0?

Help with RC 'main idea' q's
I know I'm wrong, but I look for answers that would nicely summarize the passage. PT10 passage 2 for example is comparing two styles of art: Venetian and Tuscan. I immediately eliminated AC's that only mention one or the other style as this didn't seem like a good summary (trust me, I get that I'm really missing the mark here). The correct AC was [first sentence of second paragraph] something to the effect of the author's main complaint about an art critic's view. The first paragraph, to me, seemed to be exclusively about comparing and contrasting the two art styles. I focused on being able to distinguish between the two. I missed the subtlety of the author's viewpoint-- that the art critic was presenting a view at all.
Whereas the incorrect AC I selected was literally just a true factoid found within the passage that happened to include both "Venetian" and "Tuscan". I am missing out on the big picture. I know it's very intuitive for many. I am very focused on structure and content, so I overlook other important aspects of the passage.
Hi guys! I was wondering if anyone would be down to study together. I'm taking the October LSAT and it's coming up pretty quickly. I'd love to review with someone! Lmk, my schedule is pretty flexible but it'd have to be somewhere midtown, maybe like a cafe or something. I go to JJAY!
Hi! I created a discord server for those in NYC/nearby states to study and chat about the LSAT! I'm currently studying full-time for the February 2025 LSAT; the goal is to create this as an LSAT study group but keep it going throughout law school!
discord link is: https://discord.gg/UPPjMUPG
hope to see you there!
Hello,
My name is Ken Kim. We are a group of Koreans and Korean-Americans planning to take the LSAT either this October or in a couple of years. We have members scoring from 160-175 either on the official test or practice tests. Some of us are committed full-time to the test while some of us are working at a company, law firm, etc. We meet on the following dates at the Gangnam station Exit 9 Wing Study Cafe.
8:00 pm-11:00 pm, Wednesday
2:00 pm-5:00 pm, Sunday
We usually meet and do questions from LR and RC. We match our answers and discuss why each one of us have chosen an answer we chose. The fee for joining the study is free other than paying for the studying cafe fee which is 1,900 KRW per person for each hour (5,700 KRW total).
If you are interested, please send me a message to my inbox. I will direct you further. Thanks!
Hey everyone. When do you recommend I register for the June LSAT? I'm not referring to the scheduling "window" that will open around May. I referring to simply signing up to take it before the April 22 deadline. Is there a difference if I register today or, say, 2 weeks from now?
Hey, sorry if this has been posted before but I couldn’t find a thread on it. While filling out one of my LOR’s I noticed it asked me for recommenders title. I was using my boss ive had for 4ish years. I had two questions. Should I use my boss as a recommendation, and his title is Store Manager, it’s not very prestigious should I add his title or leave it blank? thank you in advance
I chose (C) and I think it's wrong because passage B doesn't cite any authorities. But I take issue with the correct answer being (A) because it says that passage A "[doesn't] provide details," which I think it does. Doesn't citing what might be necessary requirements for a principle of rectification count as "details"?
Any help and clarification would be much appreciated.

Hey everyone, I have written a personal statement that I am very happy with and wanted to get it checked over by one of the consultants at 7sage just to get their take on it. Has anyone used either the single essay edit or hourly consultation? Not sure which one to choose.
If anyone else wants to read it over, Id be grateful!

Hello! just choosing between Penn State, Stetson, SUNY Buffalo Law, Albany Law.
Which one is better for employment in the future?
thanks
Hey hey! If you're ready to get more practice taking a full LSAT Prep Test under simulated online proctor conditions, you're in the right place. Here's how our Proctored PTs work:
You must register in advance using this link: https://7sage.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZIocOCurT4jHtd7O3BdoLv03bCWpYWw2RKI Once you sign up, you'll receive an email from Zoom with the link to join the meeting.
Select a PT that you want to take for the proctored test. This can be any PT; we recommend one that you haven't seen yet and that is at least as recent as PT 50. You can take the PT through 7Sage, or, if you want to simulate real test-day conditions, you can log into LawHub and take it there.
Show up to the Zoom meeting 10 minutes before the scheduled start time (12:50 pm ET). You will all be prompted to complete a room scan (similar to the test-day security measures) at the same time and then put into a breakout room by yourself to complete the test.
Simulate the test! Our 7Sage Proctor will monitor the testing process for the duration of your test and even simulate a pesky interruption. The Proctor will ask if anyone would like to be interrupted at the beginning of the session, and you will have the chance to privately message your preference. If only the ProctorU proctors would be so kind as to ask! If you have any approved accommodations, please let us know via private chat at the beginning of the session as well––you will be able to test with those.
If you have any questions, please email bailey.luber@7sage.com. We hope to see you there!
Does anyone in the Cleveland/Akron area want to form a study group? I prefer in person, but I'm also willing to do over zoom! I'm specifically in Medina. I test in June 2024, and I'm aiming for high 160s (or higher. Currently in mid-150s).
Would some of you be willing to share what you will write/wrote your personal statement about? Just out of genuine curiosity.
Hello I am taking the January LSAT next week and I have two questions. I am struggling with flaw questions when its not one of the common flaws listed. I have tried using the piecewise analysis when looking at answer choices, or trying to see if its descriptively accurate and weakens but I am still struggling to get them right. I think I also have issues because I am trying to not negate the premises and conclusions, but some of the correct answer choices does negate them? I think its hard for me to recognize a flaw because I get overwhelmed that there is so many ways to destroy an argument.
I feel like i am missing easy points if anyone has any tips
I am trying to hold a debate with these LSAT questions at Gangnam station on weekends. I currently score around 165-172 on the LSAT. If you need more information, please send me a DM.

Hey everyone,
The chaining conditionals portion of the 7sage V2 curriculum (lessons 26 and 27 of Conditional and Set Logic) is quite complicated with little to no explanation on the skill builder. Has anyone used any other resources to help learn this portion of the curriculum? It seems very important, but with no videos or expanded explanations I am having a hard time with it.
I looked into using V1 in order to get more help, but that focuses a lot on LG and I plan to take the LSAT this fall (no LG). I suppose I could come back to this section, but it seems pretty important, so does anyone have any suggestions on how to proceed if 7sage does not have further instruction on chaining conditionals?
Thanks,
I took 2 leaves of absences when my mom died but she was sick my entire college career which deeply affected my GPA. Do I include it all into the character and fitness response or do I write an addendum as well.
Hi! I am struggling to fully grasp how to do the assumption questions. Any tips or tricks to understand these? Thank you!
Child labor laws are declining. Payment is decreasing. Inflation is skyrocketing. Housing crises are in tensifying. I can't provide sources here, but I have my BA/MA in anthropology and a graduate certificate in disasters, displacement, and human rights.
I won't know what to do from here.Any advice would be appreciated. I'm always looking for those who have been thought some similar challenges.
I remembered a question that had something that basically said: A or B without C
would that be translated as:
/A and /B --> C (since you negate the suff and change the or to and?)
do i use the v1 or the v2 for the February lsat? because on v2 it also has logic games so im a little confused can someone explain
