I submitted my application to William & Mary today, however, I just realized that I made a small mistake in my "Why William & Mary Law" essay. I referred to Williamsburg as being a "highly-populated" and "thriving" city, even though it only has about 15,000 people... I went there for undergrad and somehow misremembered it as having more people than it really does. Anyway, it's a small yet noticeable mistake. Should I resend my essay?
Hey all! I am in South Korea right now, so I was wondering if anyone in Korea would be interested in blind reviewing PTs together.
I was thinking two PTs per week - total of six until the exam. Since I have taken October LSAT, I have used some of the current PTs, so we're gonna have to work around with which PTs to take. I was thinking two PTs in 60s, 70s, and 80s.
My weakest section is RC around -10 (I know its horrible) and my strongest is LG around -0 or -1. I usually get -3 to -5 on LR. It would be preferable if you're really good at RC, but if not that's okay. We can improve together! I get around 165 and I want to bring it up to 170.
If you're interested, direct message me. Thanks!
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
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?)
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 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, I just completed the advanced logic lesson. Most of it made sense, until embedded conditionals.... Reviewing the intro to logic section. 7Sage said they are very rare but very hard.
I am just curious, how hung up should I get on the embedded conditionals stuff ? I suppose as it is the hardest logic lesson I shouldn't be so down about not having it stick after only a day or two of reading the advanced section. But that being said. I have watched the advanced logic section a couple times now, at this point I feel like I am just wasting time ! I am not trying to sound pompous but thus far nothing has ever really made me feel this stupid before and it has me questioning my whole study study plan.
Should I just forge ahead and hopefully this stuff will click with more time and practice/following more along the core curriculum ? In all honesty I am only shooting for a mid 150 range score, Is embedded conditionals worth stressing over ?
Other then that, If anyone has any advice or extra material on this stuff I am all ears. Thanks !
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).
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!

Hello! just choosing between Penn State, Stetson, SUNY Buffalo Law, Albany Law.
Which one is better for employment in the future?
thanks
I took the August flex and didn't feel as comfortable with RC and LR as I would have liked. If anyone would like to blind review with me please message me! My LR is anywhere from -0 to -4, and RC is all over the place: -2 to -7.
If you're scoring around the same and are interested in doing a lot of RC this next month lmk!
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!
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
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!
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.
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?
Hey everyone!
Wondering if there is anyone that currently has a parent with cancer and is studying for their LSAT? How has studying been? How are you managing both the LSAT and care-taking?
I was originally suppose to take the Nov LSAT and then bumped it to Jan because my father's cancer treatment was a large commitment, he currently has stage 3 skin cancer (don't forget to wear sunscreen everyday y'all). I have a few more days to decide if I still want to do the Jan LSAT or take it in Feb/early next year and apply next cycle (I'm PT'ing around 160-167 timed). I'm 24 right now and I know 26 is not old but I feel a bit pressured to get in next cycle at 25. I worry that I might commit to the Jan LSAT and then my father's cancer might progress which will only lead to more stress and anxiety.
Everyone around me has been nothing but supportive about any decision I make so I'm just looking to get any general advice from people experiencing the same or a similar thing! Thanks everyone and happy studying!!
For anyone interested here’s a January LSAT study group. Click here to join: https://groupme.com/join_group/63079671/gwZJlnRE
I didn’t make it so please don’t ask me questions. I’m just sharing it!
I have a clear top choice for law school, and while I would love to apply Early Decision, I will likely need some scholarship money. Obviously, Early Decision reduces that chance of receiving money you would receive otherwise. But is it still standard for a law school to dish out money to an Early Decision applicant? My application for this particular school will likely benefit from an LSAT score at the median or 75th percentile but a GPA at the 25th percentile.
Thanks in advance.
This question was doozy. I wanted to share with others my notes on how I got the correct answer during Blind Review. During the timed test, I would most likely skip this one and save it for later. It took some time for me to translate the stimuli into a format that made sense to me.
At first, I also thought that the sentence in question was the conclusion of the argument. I had to ask myself what the author was really trying to convince me of; that it is not necessary to be at home to be in your house? No. The author was trying to convince me "You can be in your backyard and not at home, that is, not in your house."
So, my notes to decipher it and arrive at the correct answer looked like this:
Difficult argument structure. I think it is C because if we rewrote the stimuli into easier language to read and understand it would look like:
Conclusion: You can be at home if you are in your backyard but not in your house.
Premise: For example, you can also be in your house but not at home if you rent your house to others. (If you're the landlord you could be in the house to do repair work, but you are not 'at home' because you don't live there)
Premise 2/Subconclusion: Therefore it is not sufficient to be in your house to be at home.
Translation of answer choice C: Claim is compatible with the truth or falsity of the conclusion = This is a premise/sub conclusion
I've been going through my prep tests, and I get absolutely destroyed by those final questions. Up to that point I'm usually between -0 to -3. What's a useful strategy?
Do we need to do anything with ProctorU after taking the LSAT flex? The "log me in rescue" app is still in my downloads - would I be able to safely remove it? And we're no longer screen-sharing / sharing our webcam video with ProctorU once we close the chat window right? (We have control over our computers again? right after closing the chat window) haha
Wishing everyone who took the test recently the best!
