7Sagers,
"Building Boards" with Raphael Piliero is cancelled this evening due to extenuating circumstances. Sorry for the inconvenience. Raphael's class will resume at its normal time next week.

So in the last 3 weeks (after 3 months of diligently studying the 7sage CC) I have scored the following:
89: 166 | 80: 164 | 62: 178 | 69: 172 | 82: 167
..aand I'm officially freaked out that the LR wording changes/increased difficulty beginning in the 80s are throwing me, as my RC and LG are both a lot more consistent ( RC -2-4ish and LG -0-2). Has anyone else noticed this in their scores and, if so, what did you do to try to counteract? Since PT80 I've been prioritizing wrong answer journaling, which feels like it's helping a lot, but perhaps to the detriment of more consistent drilling? I'm taking January and would obviously love to crack the elusive 17x barrier in ten weeks. I've been saving the 80s and 90s for the home stretch - but any advice is welcome before I trudge onwards.. #help
Just trying to prepare for the upcoming Nov LSAT score release....it was my second time taking the LSAT. First score was solid and good enough for most schools on my list but wanted to take Nov to improve a few points. Feeling like I did okay but always preparing for the worst—in the event that I ended up getting a lower score, should I cancel the second score??? Does whether I should cancel or not depend on how much worse the second score is? Any advice is welcome!
Taking the January test, looking for a study group. I don't go to UNCW so I've just been going solo for a bit.
Hi everyone,
This is my 2nd week of studying for the February test and I just feel like nothing is clicking. Once it gets a bit complicated, my brain just goes haywire. I've taken a diagnostic test and got 141 :( But the thing is...my brain is telling me this test shouldn't be hard to understand 😪
I'm going through sage's syllabus and have done some drills but I am just overwhelmed by everything that is offered and do not know what works and doesn't work. I would watch the explanation videos and understand it but then it goes out the field once I start practicing on my own. I work full time so I try to study at least 2-3 hours for at least 6 days of the week to prevent burnout but I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.
Do any of you have tips for me? Please help. I've considered getting a 7sage tutor but don't know if that will help if I've only been studying for 1 full week.
I recently took a PT untimed and got a 170. I am looking to meet anyone living in Seoul to meet and talk about the LSAT and maybe deal with whatever we can. I know how to approach and study for the test now but we can maybe meet and talk about what we can do to improve. I think essentially it is productive to meet offline and talk about this. We can meet at Wing Study Café at Exit 9 of Gangnam station. They charge 1,900 KRW per hour for each person. In other words, if we meet for three hours, the cost would be 5,700 KRW per person. I can also tutor for free if anyone is just starting and want to learn the basics of the LSAT. If we meet for a tutoring, we would divide the cost of using the study café 1/n. In other words, no need to pay me anything other than the fee for using the study café for yourself. Please send me an inbox. Thanks!
Hi everyone,
Due to connection issue, we will have to cancel today's Beating Curvebreakers with Raphael. Join Raphael's class again on January 5th.

My two body paragraphs were complete. Yet, I did not finish my conclusion. Will this be to my disadvantage?
Hi all:
I just took my LSAT Writing Sample and, though it went well, I am concerned about the formatting in the interface. As I was writing, I was able to skip a line between each paragraph. However, when the submission screen showed me my essay, the skipped lines were gone so that it seemed like a block of text. It still needs to be processed, so I am wondering if anyone has faced a similar issue or if it gets taken care of on the back end.
With this question, i was trying to find the conclusion to break down this question and I had a difficult time with what the answer should look like ' and what kind of support would be the correct answer.
Hello,
My name is Ken Kim. We are a group of Koreans and Korean-Americans planning to take the LSAT either this October or in a couple of years. We have members scoring from 160-175 either on the official test or practice tests. Some of us are committed full-time to the test while some of us are working at a company, law firm, etc. We meet on the following date at the Gangnam station Exit 9 Wing Study Cafe.
2:00 pm-5:00 pm, Sunday
We usually meet and do questions from LR and RC. We match our answers and discuss why each one of us have chosen an answer we chose. The fee for joining the study is free other than paying for the studying cafe fee which is 1,900 KRW per person for each hour (5,700 KRW total).
If you are interested, please send me a message to my inbox. I will direct you further. Thanks!
Answer is C: I actually eliminated C pretty quickly on the grounds that the answer choice alleges the ethical principle does not help the journalist, whereas Anita states that the guidance is inadequate. If something is inadequate, I take that to mean it is insufficient for achieving a purpose. However, something can be inadequate but still help in a situation. If I say "the water from one fire hose is inadequate for putting out the forest fire," it doesn't mean that the water from the one fire hose does not help in extinguishing the fire. It most definitely helps, but is insufficient to achieve that purpose.
Can someone tell me why answer choice C is correct? I ended up eliminating every answer choice in this question and just guessed since I was stumped.

Hi - trying to look through previous discussions / on the LSAT website but couldn't find a clear answer. I have blank paper but it's yellow. Is that okay, or does the blank paper have to be white? Thanks in advance!

Hey everybody!
I am taking the November 2022 LSAT. I have a 100% time accommodation. Obviously, I need to take PTs the length of the actual LSAT with my accommodations, but 4 hours and 40 minutes seems like a ton of time to spend when I'm not even sure the unscored section will be logical reasoning. Does anyone have any advice or insight?
Thanks so much!
Can anyone explain why c is right and b is wrong?

Hi, I'm registered for October 2022 LSAT and am looking for a study buddy.
I'm hoping to do a weekly meet-up session in downtown area starting next week (4 sessions before the test).
I'm looking for someone with opposite strengths from me so that the session could be helpful for both sides.
Please let me know if you are:
In return I can provide:
Happy studying everybody!
Hi everyone!
Can someone please read my GPA addendum? I'm just talking about my first-year grades. I promise its short!
Thanks,
Hi , I am currently signed up for the October Lsat, but I am feeling like I should change it to November just to try and bring my score up a little bit more, but the registration for November is closed, so does that mean I could not change my test date to that test month? I emailed LSAC to see, but I do not want to try until I get a definite answer because then I will not take the LSAT until January.
Got absolutely cucked by the time slots for the October test because LSAC only allows a testing window of 25 hours for international takers. I'm seeing that ProctorU has an option called "Take It Soon" where you can schedule to take the test earlier. Does anyone know if I'll be able to change my test time if I select this option?
I know it all depends / repetition etc but im generally wondering- when I drill reading what difficulty should I do at? does anyone know what avg difficulty is on tests like one level two one level three etc for reading?
Like if I drill one 3 dot law passage, 4 dot science, 2 dot humanities, then mix it up another time, etc?
