So I’m having some difficulty eliminating Answer choice A and wondering why my interpretation of it is incorrect.

A says: “The truth of a given description is independent of its emotional vividness.”

I interpreted this to mean, whether a description is true or false is independent of emotional vividness. I remember from both passages that the respective authors thought that telling lies increased emotional vividness, so I thought A was correct by reasoning that if something is untrue then emotional vividness increases. Shakespeare in the first passage and subjectivity in autobiography in the second illustrated this. So I reasoned that truthfulness, as interpreted as being true or false is not independent of emotional vividness, because at least of aspect of truthfulness, being false—increases emotional vividness.

Obviously, this was an incorrect interpretation. Just wondering how I could know that from reading the answer choice, and how I could ascertain the correct one.

Thanks!

Hi all,

I was originally in the April test and am still eligible for the flex. I will be retaking the lsat and have had horror stories with test centers and I have issues with the back half of the test. Should I request the flex as i can control test spot and it is a sprint? I see the downsides as a tough curve and me studying for a curtailed test. Is it worth it? logic games is my strength at -2-5 and LR -4-6 and RC is most wild as -3-7.

Hi all I find I have some difficulty on numbers related LR questions, there was a MBT question on pt 89 dealing with average numbers of students in night classes and an easier question on pt 80.1.2 (flaw question) where it's a numerator denominator trap.

I remember someone saying "you have to know 2 of 3 things to make a valid inference, you have to know at least 2/3 of the numerator, denominator, or the %." Am I remembering this correctly?

Also does anyone have any tips from figuring these numbers questions out easily? Thanks!

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of companies that will give discounted or even free prep material if I was approved for the LSAC fee waiver?

Please detail any information you feel is pertinent to me as it will be much appreciated. Thank you!

Are international LSAT exams switching to digital too? I am taking the June LSAT in Korea, so I would like to know if it will be digital or paper.

Hi All,

I have wanted to go to Law School for a long time. I currently live in NE Indiana and I can’t quit my job because I need it, obviously. I don’t really want to leave my family here in Indiana either, we are really close and leaving does not appeal to me. Dayton’s online program really intrigues me because of cost, proximity, etc. I want to practice in here in Indiana and live here. Would you all recommend going here for my long term goals? Want to be in public interest or patent law or become part of the counsel for the company I currently work for.

Hi, I've been hitting the mid-high 160's and I'm finding my core weakness is not understanding what the ACs are saying. This means the AC is using hard referential phrasing, or weird grammar like using embedded clauses without commas / run-on sentences, or the wording is just ambiguous.

I'm trying to parse the sentence piece by piece in my BR, but does anyone have any help for this issue?

My solutions so far are: parse word by word / phrase by phrase in BR, reduce the AC down to subject verb object. This is still really hard and I miss a lot of questions just because I don't know what the AC is trying to tell me. Thanks!

I was wondering if anyone had any insight on how the LSAT-flex will be scored? If it’s on the same scale as the regular LSAT does that mean we can miss about 8 questions and still get a 170? Thank you!

Dear all,

I am usually a logic games guru but the prep test 75 i was complete garbage. idk why but i could not figure out the games in time. Does anyone have any knowledge as to why the pt 75 games are harder.

Hi,

This was a very weird author's-attitude question. Even when I look at the correct line (line 24), I still don't fully understand how the answer here is B. (I thought the answer was A because of how the author described Bentham's reform as revolutionary and then goes on to describe the flaws behind the reform). Why is B right?

Any #help would be appreciated!

I know it is early in the game, but I am curious anyone getting off waitlists and where? just want to celebrate those moving on up in admissions.

Hi,

I chose C here because I thought it was supported by lines 5-7 and I didn't choose B because I didn't see how the passage showed how laws were less/more rigid (since I didn't see anything about laws being flexible or changeable). Can anyone help explain why B is right and C is wrong?

Any #help would be very appreciated!

Thanks!

Hey guys I'm looking for people to study with in the Atlanta area! I live in Gainesville but have no problem commuting somewhere to study with a group of like-minded individuals! If interested let me know!

loophole teaches us to solve wordy parallel questions by running the numbers (principle & parallel question chapter). How can I apply this method during the actual exam and study period?

Is there a way to customize the tests on here? Or any plans to release LSAT Flex preptests?? I thought about buying some from Powerscore since they made some, but I couldn't get their website to work. I suppose one could just do regular PTs on here and subtract one of the sections from their score.

EDIT: Nevermind, I see now that JY posted about this: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/comment/150700

Is it advisable to make a light hearted joke at the beginning of a personal statement? Something that draws the reader in and plays a part in the picture I'm trying to paint. I'm just not sure if it's advisable or not, but if anyone can chime in their two cents it would be appreciated.

This is the sentence for context: I vividly remember May 24th, 2014, partially because it was my mother’s birthday and I knew she wouldn’t let me live it down if I forgot it two years in a row, but mainly because it was the last day to submit courses....

I don't know if this is possible, or something others have requested in the past (I didn't see any previous requests for it), but I would love to have my settings from my previous quiz saved when I move on to the next one. Or even if there was just an option to "Use Presets" from before so I could activate them in one click — that would be simply magical.

Here are the settings I'm referring to, if you're not familiar:

Ideally, I'd like to be able to automatically activate fullscreen mode (1 click), coffee shop background noise (2 more clicks), select a highlighter (1 more click), and set the font size to "small" (2 more clicks). For those of you counting along, that's 6 clicks for each quiz, before starting the quiz. That can get to be a lot if you're doing 15 quizzes in a row (lookin' at you, Weaken Questions section...).

Obviously, this isn't a "required" feature — just something that would be nice to have. I don't know if there's anywhere to "officially" request features aside from the "Contact Us" option, but I thought I'd see if anyone else thought this might be useful.

What do you think? Would this be helpful for you, or am I alone in this desire?

I just need access to 7Sage's course material and explanation videos. Do I need a subscription to LSAT Prep Plus to gain access?

I go to a school up in Canada for my undergrad, and as some of you may know, Canada grades a bit differently than the US does. A pass is >50 instead of >60, so therefore percentages tend to be lower (an 80 is an A-).

However, I really want to go to a law school down in the states. I know that the LSAC will use the letter grades if they are on your transcript, but my school only puts a conversion in the 'legend' portion of the transcript, and not with the percentages (I don't know if I am being clear here).

Do I have any shot at getting into any American law school? I have heard rumors that schools add an extra 5-10% on Canadian grade percentages because of the difference, but I don't know if that is true or not.

PT30 Game 2

The six messages on an answering machine were each left by one of Fleure, Greta, Hildy, Liam, Pasquale, or Theodore...

Anyone know of similar games? This one cost me a perfect LG section... which was infuriating because it's so easy once you get it. Wanting to try a similar game fresh.

Hey guys! Hope you are safe and healthy.

I am waitlisted at a T3 school. I have scoured archived Reddit posts, Spivey’s site, 7Sage, and countless blogs. I am basically trying to get a sense from individuals who have been in a similar situation and come out successfully of what you did to better your odds.

I know the basics of sending a tailored, to-the-point LOCI. However, on other things like phone calls I am less clear. I know that with phone contact less is more, however given that visits are unavailable it seems making at least one phone call attempt may be a good idea (and this school seems okay with that, based on their available waitlist information).

I am also considering an additional letter of recommendation as well as an LSAT retake. I know there are numerous things one can do, but I just wanted a general sense of someone’s “playbook.”

Also, please let me know the nature of the correspondence, when you were waitlisted, and when you were finally accepted. Thanks!

Hi! I’m looking for study partners available to meet up online. I’m hoping to score as high as I can and would love for someone who is motivated to do the same. Please lmk if interested.

Anyone in Seoul looking for study buddies? Please feel free to leave a comment/msg if interested! I live in Gangnam and I am planning to take the June 2020 test.
