I can't parse out or understand the assumption being made in this question below:

Paleontologist: It is widely, but falsely, held that life began in the ocean and did not exist on land until half a billion years ago.

The answer is D but I do not understand why

First time using 7sage. I've already taken the LSAT twice - 147 and 150. I feel confident with LG - I don't think I need to re-learn how to LG by watching the videos. Also feel pretty confident with RC.

How should I incorporate 7sage with my prior knowledge of LG + RC?

Should I skip LG + RC lessons and continue practicing? My tutor wants me to do 1 RC section daily M/W + 1 LG section daily T/Th.

LR is my weakest section. I have been studying by doing half an LR section daily M-Th with one full section on F. Averaging around -11 to -15. Clearly I'm not understanding LR. Should I only do the LR lessons and then do half an LR section once I complete the LR lessons?

Thank you in advance.

#help why is E the correct answer? I am confused because there seems to be nothing in the stimulus that alludes to E being correct, and it seems as if one would have to have prior knowledge of mussels/their chemical transformation abilities to know this. I do not necessarily think any of the other choices or very strong, but this choice E seemed very random to me. I'd appreciate any insight of what I'm missing!

disclaimer: this is about my personal study schedule not 7sage's.

Hi, I am retaking the exam in April after having taken it in January this year. I am not working so I can study full time, however every time i sit down to study I get extremely overwhelmed and have no idea where to start because I know the basics and can't get a solid routine down for my week. I got 153 for January and my main issues are with LR. My PTs range from 151-159.

Hey everyone,

Does anyone know if my score will post instantly after I decide to keep it via Score Preview or do they keep the window open for the full six days (like they did with the AR Field Study compensation)? I'm wondering if I can plan on submitting my applications on Wednesday or if my score will basically be pending until that score preview window closes?

Many thanks,

Brian

Hey guys, I posted this question on reddit a few days ago but received a response that wasn’t very helpful. So I decided to post the same question here to see if anyone knows something about it.

I was subscribed to “LSAT Prep Plus” in 2020, when it first came out, and in 2021. Before, depending on how you adjust the browser to suit your reading comfort, each of the RC passages could be made to fit on the screen in its entirety, provided you had a large enough monitor—I guess slightly bigger than your average laptop screen would suffice to bring this about.

However, I haven’t “logged in” to access the Prep Plus in 2022, and today I looked at the free sample PTs on their website and saw some major changes that I find discomforting. As you can see in the screenshots I provided here, the main passages are cut in the middle and you can’t see the whole of the main text for each of the passages without scrolling up and down, which I think also happened to be the case with LSATs administered on the tablets for a brief period before COVID struck.

I am registered for the January exam, and because I spent significant time preparing in previous years, I decided not to re-subscribe to the $100 per year subscription to the questions on their website.

Does anyone know anything specific about these changes, like when it first happened, and whether there’s a way to work around it?

Oh, I just realized I can’t post pictures up here. So, if you want to see the screenshots illustrating what I’m talking about, please visit

Thanks a lot.

P.S. I was a monthly subscriber long ago, and J.Y. has the best explanations!

[I am posting on behalf of a 7Sage user. Please feel free to leave your comments below. Thank you for your help!]

Could you please help me with Main Point questions. What I am most confused by is the "how do I know this" approach. It seems that whenever I ask, "how do I know this?" for a potential conclusion statement I answer the question wrong because I am really not understanding this approach but it seems it would help the most when torn between two possible conclusion statements. Thank you.

Hi, I've been on a hiatus for a few months and came across a problem while reviewing NA questions on the syllabus and remember having this issue in the past as well.

https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/computer-emotions-na-question/?ss_completed_lesson=1791

Here JY attaches a noun (computer) to another noun (emotions) instead of writing it as, and as I wrote it, C->/E he writes it as /Ec

Then he wrote the conclusion as follows /Ic, I wrote it as C-> /I

So how can I know when to attach one thing to another in conditional reasoning? Is there a general rule to this? Because it lead me to the following issue with this problem.

I created a chain where both E and I connect to /C however I'm not able to see which comes first inorder to validate the conclusion, the /E or the /I

(diagramed below)

P:C - > /E

SA: I->E or E->I

C - >/I

JY, and the correct answer choice, both did it as I->E - I understand how they got to that when he attaches the c to /E.

Im not sure if my conditionality is off or what, but I would have assumed that it wouldn't matter if I attached the two nouns together or just created it the relationship in the chain as above. If anyone needs more clarification on anything please let me know.
