Hi everyone,

Now this was a weird parallel flaw question because I feel like there are so many different answer explanations for the answer choices on this question all over the web, and I am not sure which ones are the most reliable. Thus, I felt maybe listing what I thought here would help clarify stuff, and I want to know what people here think (is my reasoning here look correct or not correct?)

What I thought was the flaw: transferring a non-transferrable trait from X to a reproduction of X

A-- right because it matches the flaw (crossed out A during the actual timed test because the trait isn't the same in wording like we see in the stimulus)

B-- wrong because this is a conditional relationship, not an argument

C-- wrong because this is a conditional relationship, not an argument

D-- wrong because we want to see some trait transfer from Jo to Layne, and we don't see that

E-- wrong because being similar is not the same as imitating/reproducing (chose E during my PT because I didn't realize this)

Any feedback would be very much appreciated!

thanks!

Hey all! I am really stuck in trying to figure out how this is used in causation questions. Is there a specific lesson dealing with this notion? Or are the explanations embedded in the causation explanation videos?

Thanks!

I applied to all my schools by March 1st/4th but haven’t received a decision from several schools (they just say they’re completed/in review).

Should I contact their admissions office or does it look bad to ask them to look at my application?

Hi all!

I am in the process of making my list of schools that I want to apply to in the fall and came across the trend that many schools with a highly ranked health law program are not ranked as high on the overall list. I am set on pursuing a career in health law, but I was wondering how much these rankings actually mean and if I would be put at a disadvantage in finding a job if I attend a highly ranked health law specific school that is not as highly ranked when compared to other schools overall. Thank you!

Hi community,

Two of us are planning to meet via Zoom this evening to start BR-ing PT 79. Looking for joiners. If you want to join, here is the link to a GroupMe group where I will post the Zoom link closer to the target time (9:30 PM EST):

https://groupme.com/join_group/59756531/VhuncmF5

If you don't have GroupMe, DM me here and I will send you the link that way. Maybe we will do more PTs after 79.

Happy studying!

Zach

Is anyone else familiar with JY's suggestion of turning weakening questions into resolve questions (essentially reading all the premises and negating the conclusion in the stimulus, ultimately creating a paradox)? I have a lot of trouble with weakening questions, but when I turn them into resolve questions they seem so much easier to solve. Is this a method that I should adapt or could it become detrimental?

I am scoring in the late 150s-early 160s and will have more time to study for the LSAT. I am looking to write the LSAT again by October/November. I’m looking for someone who is dedicated, studying full-time, and ideally scoring in the similar range. Message or comment if interested.

I'm on waitlist for NYU and I got a Kira invite-to do an interview. Any and all advice welcome and what kind of questions are they likely to ask, that I should be practicing? (other than why law/why NYU)

Hello everyone,

I know that if you talk during the LSAT Flex exam, you automatically get DQ. However, and I hope I'm not alone in this, sometimes I whisper to myself or mouth to myself as I'm doing LG or LR. Does anyone know how strict this no talking/mouthing policy is? Thank you!

On the lawhub interface RC questions that refer to specific parts of a passage will be highlighted on the passage. There are no line references because they don't have a fixed layout for the passages.

I've found other behavior where it won't do this however and will instead only highlight where one of the answer choices has a highlight in the passage. Just wondering if it'll be like this for the actual test or if I'm missing something that lets me see where the other answer choices also are in the passage.

Example:

Which of the following words is most similar to how the word "blah" is used in the second sentence of the first paragraph?

A- "bleh" (---- Only this one will be highlighted in the passage. The other answer choices aren't, and the word "blah" in the question itself also isn't highlighted.

B- "blue"

C- "red"

D- "blargh"

E- "bloop"(/p)

I have 3 waitlist interviews scheduled for next week, 1 for 15 min, 1 for 30 min, 1 for 30-60 minutes. Does anyone with experience with waitlist interviews have tips on how to prepare and what to expect? Any experiences or resources would be so appreciated! Thanks!

I have 3 copies of the Official LSAT SuperPrep and 1 copy of 10 Actual LSAT (29-38).

Some of them have very light writing on them that is easily erasable.

All items free, you just have to pay shipping. Or if you're in LA area, I can meet up with you.

Mods please let me know if not okay to post this.

Hello,

Does anyone know how I can practice doing 3 sections digitally on 7sage?

I know Powerscore sells their LSAT flex preptest at $7.50 each but I thought I'd ask here first since I have access to all the PTs here.

Hi! I am a third year (final year) undergrad student in India, and am looking to apply for admissions for Fall 2021/22. I was wondering whether the law schools in the U.S and Canada accept three year international degrees? I am at a NAAC 'A' graded school (rated in the highest tier in India) with a triple major and 120 credits scheduled to be completed by the time I graduate next year. Would I be eligible for admissions to law schools, more specifically the T14 schools?

Thank you!

Looking for someone at the same level of their studies as me - Completed CC and taking PT's and doing thorough Blind Reviews. It will be my first time writing.

My goals for the next two months include: score more consistently, build endurance, identify and improve weak areas, really work on improving RC

I am hoping to get through some of the 70's tests this month and 80's during June. I am also open to doing older tests or even just sections ( example LR section or single RC passage) when not testing and BR-ing.

I find Blind Review VERY helpful and hoping someone who is preparing for July will be down. We don't have to do every single test together- maybe a few - unless you want to do more.

If you are interested, at the same level and have similar goals - then let me know!

My time zone is Mountain Standard

Can we use touch screen for exam if it’s not a tablet? With stillus tool?

In hindsight I understand why D is correct (PT 3 section 2 Q 9), but I eliminated it because in the STIMULUS the comparison was to the same amount of whole milk. The question stem tells us that the coconut oil doesn't "usually cause" the blood cholesterol level to rise which allows us to consider the fact that people use more of one product than another. Is this type of chunky question stem that allows for a gap in reasoning that wasn't present in the stimulus happen in other LSAT LR questions? Or is this abnormal since it's a very old test?

I totally forgot about the scratch paper. The thing is right after I finished it was completely silent for a minute or so, so I just closed the connection with proctor u.

Was I supposed to rip up scratch paper in front of camera? Obviously after I realized this I did throw it away and ripped it up, but hours after. Will people be penalized if not ripping it up in front of camera afterwards?

Hi community,

Looking to form a group of motivated studiers to BR one PT/week over the summer.

Anyone who wants to join can do so using this link -- no need to message me directly or post your email!

https://groupme.com/join_group/59882617/BjYFugwa

I've learned from participating in the community here that talking through problems is the best way for me to learn at this stage of my studying. I'm taking the July LSAT and it's my third and last chance to get a 174+. I've been scoring mid 170s on PTs, and I want to get serious with a group, because I know that's the only way to make sure my performance on test day is bulletproof.

All levels are welcome!

I find it best when there is a mix!

Looking forward to studying!

Zach

Hi, I'm taking the August LSAT and looking for other study partners who are also studying full time. The best way to learn for me has been through talking out with others the questions and the reasoning for the correct and incorrect answer choices. I aiming to cover one PT per week and focusing only on the LR and RC sections and BR together the sections.

If you're interested join the group me,

.

I have searched and searched to try and find which tests are included in the Official LSAT Prep Plus, but all I can find is a rough number of how many tests are included. (I have bought a bunch of tests already, so it would be very helpful to know which ones are included before deciding to purchase this.) Can anyone who has purchased the Official LSAT Prep Plus clarify which specific tests are included?

Thanks!

Hi,

So I can see why C is definitely a better answer choice than all the rest. However, I find myself confused by the fact that I am not sure how we can tell that the author thinks that doctrine of precedent is a "useful tool" here. Can anyone #help me with this?

Thanks!

Best regards
