So I graduated from undergrad a semester early. I finished my last classes, finals, etc., in December 2020, however, the conferral date on my diploma is listed as January 31st 2021. Under the education section of some applications it asks for start date, end date, and degree date. Should I list my end date as Dec 2020? Or list both end date and degree date as Jan 2021 as to not be confusing? Other applications ask for dates attended and degree date, so same question for that. Thank you in advance for any insight!

The passage starts with a conditional claim, then there is a shift, claiming that in order for the A ---> B B has a condition, so in order for the claim to be true we need to assume that the condition is true for all cases. That's why AC E is correct.

I'm currently scoring: 155-160

📆 My planned test date: April/June

📈 To study, I have been: Studying all of LG to try and get -0 and reading the Loophole

🔑 My goals for this group are: to hold each other accountable and study in person together.

🔍 We'll focus on: Whatever we find necessary

📚 When we'll meet and what we'll do: As much as possible!! I am open to every week day and weekends off or Monday, Wednesday and Friday.

✅ How to join: Zoom or in person

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if there's anyway I could improve how I've been drilling. I started doing questions around the beginning of the month and have been focusing on drilling on LR questions about 5 -10 per day. However, I feel like I've been taking these drills for far too long untimed. Usually I drill 5 questions for about 1 - 2 1/2 hours when doing them. Once I've submitted, I check answers depending on how many I got wrong which can last for up to 2 hours. Filling LR journals take another long time as well. In general, I feel like doing small increments as such eats alot of my time up for the day and feels somewhat ineffective despite trying to score consistently high. If anyone has any suggestions on how to improve drilling/studying for the LSAT, I would much appreciate it. Thx

So I was scheduled to take the test at 7am this morning and I had ran the equipment check multiple times the night before and the morning of. All equipment checks said I was good to go. However, once i went to start the test, the testing session had another system check called "ports" and repeatedly failed. This "ports" requirement was not a part of the equipment test and I had no idea that this could be a problem. I contacted tech support and they went through my settings and made sure everything was good which it was. I had techs straight up leave the chat multiple times and had other support workers having me repeat the same uninstall-reinstall tasks over and over to no avail. Eventually, after 2 hours, one of the techs just sent me a link that let me bypass the testing session and finally take the test around 9:30. There was no problem with screen sharing or them controlling my computer so I can only assume this was a technical error on their part.

While I got to take the test, it was immediately after 2 hours of non-stop heart-pumping stress and a few nervous breakdown close calls. I will definitely be taking it again in October but this has set back my app date by a few months all while I have to study for the lsat again while finishing my senior thesis. Im at a loss for how I will manage all of this now. Besides just letting off steam with this post I would like to know what you all think I should do. I do have chat logs with the technicians. I know filing a formal test complaint with LSAC will delay my scores by 3 weeks. Should I try and contact LSAC by other means and let them know the situation? The biggest thing is that I do not, under any circumstances, want to take it again through ProctorU.

Hi,

I have seen different opinions online for whether one should write an LSAT score addendum. Let me begin by saying I know my score isn't representative of my potential in law school. I graduated 3rd in my class in college and have a 3.97 GPA but I just really suck at standardized testing and English isn't my first language.

With that being said, my October test went terrible and I had a proctor who would move my mouse (he had remote access to it) while I was highlighting the reading passages and took me out of the screen when I was doing LR, (the screen went from LSAT to a random tab). He also took about a minute away from my LR because he logged me out after I pressed "start this section." I did re-take in November however, and I got a score lower than both my other tests! Maybe I was burned out, I don't know. I didn't have tech issues though.

Any advice on what to do?

Hello Everyone,

I have taken basically all of the preptests from 60-94 within the past 2-3 years. I am taking the June 2024 LSAT because i want to get one last shot with the logic games (currently my best section).

I want to keep doing prep tests till the test in June. But all of the tests past 94 do not have logic games in 7Sage. What should i do? is there a way to switch it to 3 sections after 94 and do a random logic game section as my 4th section?

Really struggling with LR inference questions. Any advice?

I Selected option B but the correct answer was option A

The reason I selected B is because I viewed that "some resident feel taxes where High" as the conclusion.

Could someone please make me understand why is option A correct?

Hello 7Sagers, I sent in my Cornell app Feb 7th, completed Feb 14th, and received a reserve notification on Feb 20th. The email states: "If you would like to be considered further for admission to Cornell Law School, please upload a Letter of Continued Interest within two weeks of the time-stamped date you received this email."

Since I already wrote the required Why School X essay, I wonder what this LOCI should look like - especially if I stay on their reserve list up until the first deposit deadline. When should I send a juicy LOCI, now or before their first deposit deadline? Any advice is appreciated!

Hi ... I need more practice with labeling. Where can I get more problem since I have gone thru the 4 problem sets.

In this example:

True Premise: A --> B

True Premise: B --> C

Inference: A--> B --> C

Is the inference a valid conclusion? Or is it just like a mundane re statement or the premises? Is it even an inference?

A --> C would of course be a valid and true inference or conclusion (depending on argument setup), right?

Can someone explain this?

I have heard many people say that their scores in RC improved when they started reading outside of practicing for the LSAT. I was wondering if you have had success with this, can you please post things you started reading that helped with your comprehension? I really suck at reading - my RC section drags down my score. No matter what I do or how many passages I do it isnt improving - so I want to try this. Please help if you can!

On the above mentioned section it mentions how many seats two different kids can sit in. By my reasoning Frank can only sit in seats 1 or 3 and Ruby can only sit in seats 2 or 4 so my answer was (B) Two. It says the correct answer is (C) Three. How is it three not two?

If anyone want to go over Logical Reasoning Core Curriculum together? if you are interested, please let me know.

Why is the answer E but not C?

Would love is someone could take a look at my PS and/or DS. Please let me know : - )

I’m taking the November 2021 LSAT which is coming up in about 2 1/2 weeks, yikes! I keep averaging a PT score of 151 but my goal is to get to a 160. When reviewing I go back through the whole test to pin point my weaknesses and review those topics again.

Does anyone have any helpful tips that may help me in improving up my score?

I have been missing a bunch of these questions lately and I am wondering if there are any tips/patterns that can help me improve? Started to panic as the Jan test approaching

I've been out of school for a few years but my resume is...supbar to say the least and I haven't had it properly looked at in years aside from the occasional employer. I just don't have anything remarkable to put down regarding my college years and none of my jobs were in the field of law. I also don't plan on applying to more than 6-7 schools (all T-14) so would the full-on admissions consulting be worth it in my case? It's horrifically expensive and I didn't foresee such a cost. I understand that securing scholarships can amount to getting tens of thousands of dollars but there's obviously no guarantee and if you don't have this kind of money, it won't appear just because you've got the need. Before I even attempt to shell out this amount of cash, I want to know if there are other options. All I know for certain is that I won't be able to do all this alone. I've shown my personal statements to my professors before (4 in total) and aside from correcting negligible grammatical mistakes, they've left them pretty much intact and so I'm left feeling lost because I know for certain that they were not even close to being ready. And even worse, I've made a significant change in why I want to pursue law and so all those old personal statements (or what was left of them) are rendered null and void.

I still haven't even taken the LSAT exam yet, but I'm really feeling the heat given how close the Fall 2022 admissions cycle is to beginning. I'm at a loss as to how to even approach fixing my resume, let alone the "optional" diversity statement.

I chose answer choice (D) for this question, because the passage definitely mentions benefits of advertisements near the end of the text:

"If there is a real need for emotional fulfillment, and if we can freely and authentically choose our means of obtaining it, then free, informed individuals may choose to obtain it through the purchase of commodities or even through the enjoyment occasionally provided by advertisements themselves."

Yet the video explanation says answer (D) is wrong because there are no benefits to advertising? How? People obtaining the desires they wish to fulfill, while enjoying the entertainment of ads. How is that not beneficial?

Prep Test 17 Section 4 Passage 3 #16

Could someone help me with why D is not the correct answer?

In the second paragraph, it gives the stats for carbon taxes and says "It should be noted, however, that these numbers ignore the effect of the tax on economic growth, and hence on emissions". Doesn't that imply that the taxes need to account for the effect on economic growth, and are thus influenced by it and would vary based on the effect that the tax would have on a country's economy (D)?

I recently scored a 158 on the October LSAT and am taking it again in January with the goal of 165. I know that you can only apply to a school once per year, so I am tempted to wait till after seeing my second score. But, I have also heard that some schools will delay their decision until your second score comes in. Thoughts?
