I took the June LSAT and plan on retaking in November. I just recently got 7Sage, I am wondering if I should just go through all of the videos and then begin taking practice tests or should I be incorporating practice tests as I go through the videos?

Thank you!

I was just wondering if anyone had some predictions about this. I think the PowerScore podcast mentioned that the two might be flex, but I still wanted to see what other people thought. I hope the two tests are flex, but I'm not sure at the moment...

Hi All,

I am currently in the process of reworking my resume to tailor it for law school. I am about to enter my final year of undergrad, and plan to apply this fall.

Just wondering about two main things:

What should we include on our resume about highschool? Just the school and the year? Honour roll/awards in graduating year? Any clubs? I was not planning on mentioning all clubs/extra curriculars, but I did found/participate in one club all the way through high school, so I am wondering if it is worth including.

Can we include items that are planned for the upcoming school year? For example, if I have already joined a club this summer and will be beginning to ramp up my involvement in the fall, should I write about my expected duties?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I am attempting to study through chunking. What I mean is, in order to get myself back in rhythm of studying I'm going to use the chunking method so I don't burn out, so I can understand what I am learning, and to properly execute what I learned through practicing.

My main concern currently is how should I chunk the material?

For LG I do pretty well, I'm somewhere between 3-4 questions wrong (this is was the case in FEB) I don't know where I stand currently until I do some practice LGs.

The biggest section I want to focus on is LR. So,what should I chunk? Should I do 3 30 min chunking sessions throughout the day and have different concepts to chunk such as MP/MC, STR, Weaken or do 1 30min chunk session with 2-3 concepts and then later on in the day go through some flashcards to reinforce what I learned and do a couple of practice problems?

I believe this could help a lot of people if they don't have time such as myself.

What are your thoughts?

I am taking the November LSAT and wanted to form a study group for that time frame if anyone is interested. I'm located in LA or AV area. We can even meet on zoom if that works.

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!

Does anyone know how to go about getting an LSAT tutor/how an tutor would help you? I haven't done all the 7Sage curriculum or done many practice test, but the ones I have taken I have averaged 152. Would I be better off saving money and doing all the curriculum and doing more PTs, or would a tutor be even more beneficial? It's not that I don't understand the material it's just that I don't have a lot of practice I think. Also does anyone know how much a tutor would be for about 3 months? TIA

PrepTest B - Section 1 - Question 11

We do not hold someone who has a heart attack while driving MR for the damage cause is the C and the claim that the choice of a diet can affect whether or not one has a heart attack it is used to support the C of the argument. The Correct AC is E

Admin Note: Edited title. Please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."

For this question I am a little confused. In one of the videos, JY mentioned that a right answer for PSA questions should end at the same place that the principle does. In this question, the correct answer says that "Toril did not act responsibly." The conclusion of the stimulus is that one is acting responsibly. Is it possible for the right answer to have a different conclusion from the stimulus? Do other right answers work with contrapositives?

Hi,

I'm wondering if anyone has advice to address a gap in my resume. I separated from the military in April but due to my husband also being active duty and us currently being stationed overseas I did not apply for any jobs. We were originally supposed to move back to the states in July which is the main reason why I didn't apply for jobs but his unit just extended our tour another year. I plan on applying for jobs not that we are staying longer but I will still have the gap. During those three months I focused on healing (I was medically separated) and studying for the LSAT. I plan on adding an addendum to my resume to explain the gap but I'm nervous it might affect my chances of getting into my school of choice. Any advice, or just some reassurance that the gap won't affect my chances too severely would be really helpful.

Just wondering if it is better to wait a day after taking a PT to begin the BR process. I usually begin that day after taking the test.

I understand that applicants with foreign undergraduate degrees do not fare well in admissions, but would an engineer with two years of experience in the US be a plus? I plan to apply to schools that rank from 70 to 100 (LSAT 150~160).

Wanted to see if anyone could share their thoughts / been in a similar position! I'm retaking the LSAT soon and wondering if I should also retake the writing portion. My first writing wasn't bad in terms of structure and argument but it ended abruptly because I ran out of time (was missing two words off the last sentence), and I was wondering if it would be worth it to redo the writing because of it in case it affects admissions.

After getting my score from the August LSAT today I'm totally at a loss. I took my first LSAT in June and scored a 157 which was not where I wanted to be. I then buckled down and studied harder for the August LSAT. I was averaging 163's right before the first go around of the test. I, along with most everyone had problems with my August LSAT. I choose to take it again and I truly felt that the test went well. I got my score back again today and I once again got a 157. I was really hoping to submit my applications as early as possible because I know that the earlier the better. Should I sacrifice this to take the test again? I am just worried that waiting until the end of October (when the October test score comes out) is going to be too long and hurt me in the long run of the admissions process. Please help I am very unsure of what to do at this point and the date to register for the October test closes tomorrow. I have a strong GPA (3.76) and good extra curriculars and I am not trying to make t14 or anything but I still want to get into the best schools that I can.

Many test companies advocate an active reading approach to RC. I think it's helpful. However, under timed conditions, it's generally difficult to juggle all the info packed into a RC passage. There's not much time to re-read the passage. So, you have to be able to "follow the logic" of the passage in one reading, then attack the questions. I have found this approach very helpful, and very time efficient.

I intend to using 7Sage for LG and another resource for RC and LR. However, I'm having trouble trying to create this personalized curriculum, as I'm not sure which lessons are geared towards Logic Games (other than "Intro to Logic" and "Advanced Logic". Any help is much appreciated!

Any indian students preparing for lsat(global)?

My worst section is RC, my best is LG but it is still not perfect. I need to take far more practice tests to prepare for the October test, but does anyone have any tips to improve from a 158 to 160's in 6 weeks time?

Hello All!

I was hoping someone could help clarify a questions that I have.

I would like to apply to law school as early in the cycle as possible (not early admissions). I took the August LSAT and was hoping to use that score for apps but I don't think it was at the score range I would have liked granted all the technical issues. If I were to use my August score to apply but make a note that I am planning on retaking the test in January, would my applications still be counted as if I applied early in the cycle or as if I were applying in January since that is when the score would be updating?

Thank you!

Hello everyone,

I have spent the past 10 days focusing mostly on RC. I am having a great deal of trouble with this section. JY's low-res summary has not helped me one bit. I am having great troubles understanding the passage before moving into the questions. I have started looking into possible tutors to help develop strategies that will help me. I had a call with a company called "Varsity Tutors" today, they gave me a quote of $1200 for 12 hours of 1 on 1 instruction time. The price seems absolutely ludicrous given the amount of supervision.

I'm feeling defeated at this point, and any help would be greatly appreciated

Are there any tips on how to take notes of stimulus and passages on digital LSAT?

Hello! So.. my worst case scenario came true. I took the January 2023 LSAT for the first time, did not do great, and cancelled my score. I took the LSAT for a second time in September and managed to score worse by TWO points than the Jan LSAT I cancelled. I am really stressing out about if I should cancel my score or keep it - only if it would really look that bad to T-14 schools to have two cancellations. For context, I am also registered for the October 2023 exam. My September score is MUCH lower than any of my target school averages, and so I want to cancel the score but don't know if there's any merit to avoiding having two cancellations on my record. The September test was a bit of a fluke for me as I panicked and really got in my head during the exam.

I appreciate anyone's help!

Okay, I know this has been asked, but I'm still a little confused: do we need to provide parent info or not??

Some law school financial aid pages make it even more confusing by saying that we are considered financially independent from parents at this stage.

So, what's the deal? Any help would be much appreciated! (3(/p)
