Hello! I am looking for a study buddy/small study group for the April LSAT. I work full time, but would be interested in weekly study zoom meetings. Since September I have been highly focusing on skill mastery for Logic Games and Logical Reasoning. In January I plan to start doing at least one section everyday during the week and a practice test every weekend. I need to focus more on Reading Comprehension mastery for December, while still continuing LR/LG mastery. Please message me your email if you are interested and want more details.

What was the whole process of taking LSAT FLEX? If you moved around a little (but still remained in the camera), would they accept that? Is there anything we need to download or do before the exam date? How does the writing sample work? I read from some places, we can take out own time to write the writing sample starting August exam, is this true? Also, what is the best advice during the test date, things to get ready or things to remember?

Any advice would be highly appreciated! - Thanks in advance!

Anyone else ever felt like they blacked out during the test? I feel like this and I am flopping on the tests but during my study time in blind review I have gotten upper 160s. Does anyone have tips to amend this?

I’m looking for someone to read my diversity statement before I finish my applications next week! I’ll take a look at any of your statements and give you feedback as well. Feel free to message me!

On drills, I usually go -2 on RC, -2 on LG, and anywhere from -1 to -3 on LR. But when I take PTs, my mistakes double. This has been going on for several months now.

Most recently, I split PTs 63, 64, and 65 into four individual drills. After adding up the score from each drill, my totals were 170, 173, and 171, respectively.

I just took PT 65 as a full practice test and got slammed with a 165.

It hasn't always been like this. In July last year, I was hitting the 170s with relative ease on full PTs. I took a break from hardcore studying because of work, but I made it a point to keep up with drilling. So why am I doing so poorly on PTs? Any wisdom would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

PrepTest 94:

I'm confused on how this was the correct answer choice (B) because Zobel's claim that Peterson’s analytic concepts are wrong and should be rejected was established, as he directly stated that in the first sentence. What makes a claim "established"?

I don't know if this is common knowledge but I just wanted to share if it isn't. I take digital notes and I didn't like writing down all the sentences when taking a quiz. For example, while doing the logic group 1 and group 2 translations quizzes. So I downloaded an extension called Web Paint that allows me to underline, draw, paint, etc. the examples on the web page instead of physically writing all of the sentences and working through them on paper. I think this has saved me a lot of time. If this sounds confusing then let me know and I'll further explain what I mean.

In the analytics section for PTs sections are given ratings of easy, medium, difficult. I've found out that these are averaged based on the extent to which 7sagers struggle with a given section. However, isn't this meaningless since the test is designed to be standard? The range of difficulty should change much because there is no curve...thoughts?

I am looking for someone I could meet up with around once a week to thoroughly discuss and breakdown Logical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension Questions. Sometimes the explanation videos just aren't enough or, for the older prep tests, there aren't any videos, so I'd like to have someone to struggle through these questions together. I do have requirements so please look through them carefully:

1.) Goal score must be 170+

2.) Must be scoring 164+

3.) *Open and honest about abilities and score

4.) 1-1 format only through Zoom

My ultimate purpose is to establish a mutually beneficial relationship, where we can pull each other up. These sessions will be basically be talk through blind review sessions so no timed exercises or doing Prep Tests together or looking at online explanations. Sessions will be focused on the older Prep Tests (1-16) due to the lack of explanations available and questions in the Core Curriculum to strengthen concepts.

Message me privately if you are interested. I don't mind when you are taking the exam so long as you meet ALL of these requirements.

I truly believe I can score a 180 (-0) on this test and want to find a study partner with similar delusions.

Necessary Conditions:

currently in the 170s

looking for a study partner

perfection as your goal

can commit to two zoom meetings a week and honor that commitment

taking the October LSAT

If this is you, send me a pm.

Hey guys, I just took PT62, which is about my 7th PT I have taken so far, and I scored a 159 (-4 LG, -9 RC, -11 LR) after my diagnostic two months ago of 148. I know that I tanked the LR pretty bad, but just curious as to what everyone's thoughts are on the difficulty level of this test?

160 is where I want to be for the August LSAT next week, so should I be happy about this, or is it considered an easier PT?

Cheers guys!! :)

I've been struggling with Inference (Inf, InfOP, InfAP, InfAA) questions on PTs and need some advice on how to approach/how to practice them/which videos and lessons specifically may be helpful. I generally perform pretty well in RC but inferences have been really a bad area consistently. Would appreciate any advice!!

Hello,

Myself and elle.sat.woods180

Are looking to add two members to our study group.

Our goal is to reach +170 scores for the 2021-2022 academic year.

The highest score I have received on the LSAT was a 167. I have scored 165 multiple times and my most recent LSAT scores have been varied from 160 to 167. I have taken approximately 80 LSAT Preptests. I only have 10 more. I took these tests in numerical order but also decided to take LSAT 89 and 88 because of their difficulty in order to prepare myself for the November/January LSAT. It did not work.

Our method of study is to pick LR/LG/RC questions/passages and blind review them. We general pick questions and passages based on their difficulty.

We are both on the East Coast but are willing to be flexible for those who are not.

Send me a direct message if you are interested in joining our group.

Thanks,

Hi, I am currently prepping for the LSAT from abroad. Is there anyone in Europe that would like to set up a study group ? Timezones make it difficult to set up zoom calls with the US. I am taking the 2021 october LSAT and currently scoring in the 150 range. Weekly zoom calls every Monday at 7pm GMT +2. If you are interested please comment below.

I've been awarded the scholarship (all three years) for a local school, which is great! However, I am still waiting on the rest of my applications which are pending. Am I required to answer the email? I think if I did answer, it would be a lame "this is great news, but I don't know if I will be attending your school" response. Also, I am concerned that if I don't answer somehow the offer will be off the table in a month's time (yet, the deposit is due in April, FAFSA February), but I think this is just anxiety talking more than anything. Anyone care to enlighten me, please?

Thank you, all! I was able to achieve my goal score thanks to the content here and this awesome community, so keep working if you are still in the LSAT process! Best of luck.
