Howdy everyone,

I'm taking in November and probably January. I have access to all LSAC released prep tests but they are in PDF format. I also like the prep test format on Khan Academy. That being said, a few questions...

Let's say my goal score is a 171, and on my last two PTs, I scored a 171 both times, the first with a 173 BR and the second with a 177 BR. At what point is it safe to say I'm PTing my goal range? After 3 PTs with that score (or higher)? After 5?

Hi, folks

I came to cross PT 70 sec1 Q11, and started to wonder what proportional propositions imply.

Let’s say “The more A, the more B” is given as a Premise, not Conclusion

Does this mean that the Only contributing factor to B is the A, regardless of any other factors?

Since it literally means the more A, the more B, if A goes up, then B should go up, right?

Then as long as A is more, then other factors doesn’t matter?

OR is the proposition imply that “if all other factors are equal”? So even if A rises, if the other factors are not equal and offset the proportional relationship between A and B?

I am having problems with the Logical Games especially with grouping and matching. If anyone can help I would appreciate it.

When it comes to these harder disagreement type questions, are we supposed to look for what the two speakers explicitly disagree about or is it supposed to be implied? The video explanation seemed to indicate that it was the latter, but I feel that answer choice C points out something the two speakers were disagreeing about explicitly.

Is Answer choice B incorrect because it talks about the possibility of creating art that "people enjoy and support?" I felt that neither of the two authors gave any answer for that.

As for answer choice E, I read it as saying "express" rather than "achieve." If it had said "express," would this have been the correct answer? JY points out a bunch of assumptions you'd have to make for this to be the correct answer in the video, but are those correct assumptions? He never confirms whether they are or not and then the video ends.

I've also read other explanations that state the reason why this choice is wrong is because it talks about what is "wise" while the speakers only talk about what "should be" but how are those two things mutually exclusive? I felt that if someone were to ask either speaker whether it was wise to have public art that helped "express consensus," Laurie would say yes because it's something that public art "should do" and Elsa would say no because it's an impossible goal.

If anyone is going to answer my questions, please watch the video explanation first or you won't know what I'm talking about.

I believe I have a firm understanding of most underlying concepts to questions/passages at this point in my studies. Although, I might easily be incorrect in that presumption. I have read the LR and LG PowerScore bibles page-for-page. I have completed nearly every educational video in the syllabus for 7Sage. I have read the entirety of Manhattan Prep's RC book. I am kinda stuck on where to go from here. Here are my stats currently, which I am only providing as a basis for how I should study:

Generally LR (-2/-3), LG (-0/-1), and RC (-5/-6).

These stats alone -- I think -- reveal my weakness in RC and a need to really focus on it in the coming days. Are there any suggestion on how I can most effectively improve my score in roughly 30 days? I could still take sections and review normally. I could attempt to pay for a tutor -- albeit I am completely self-supporting in college. Any insight on how to make the next jump would be greatly appreciated!

NVM I FOUND IT, for anyone looking for a difficult RC passage it was PT 67 S1 P2.

Hey guys! I'm looking to locate a specific RC passage and really don't have much to go on - guess I'm hoping someone else will be able to recognize it lol.

I believe it was in the 60s or 70s and it was written like a journal or about someones journal or something, I think it was about a Chinese author? Anyways that's very limited information, the reason I'm looking for this passage is because it was ABSTRACT AF. Like there was BARELY any structure and it was notorious for this.

If anyone recognizes the description and wants to share any passages that it might be, do comment down below!

I realize this isn't a lot to go on so thanks to anyone who comments!

Did anyone else notice that their mouse and or browser was somewhat laggy during the test? this made it really annoying to highlight things and even press on which answer I was choosing.

I doubt that its due to my computer or internet connection because I am well above average in both of those respects.

Anyone have any ideas? I'm assuming its just a byproduct of being proctored but figured I'd ask.

Hello all. I'm trying to add a school to my list on the LSAC website for next fall and the school I want to add is greyd out and not able to add. Can anyone help me out with this? Thank you

HI guys,

Do you guys think it would be beneficial to first learn the section and then do practice questions before moving on to the next section. Like should I get the methods down first then practice and do exams or should i get the method down apply it additionally and move on?

Let me know.

Hey guys!

Just started a discord server for the January/February LSAT 2022: https://discord.gg/T3dMtJ47. I want the people who join to be active participants so that the discord server is able to benefit all of us. Please join if you are interested. There is no minimum score to join but I want people to be motivated to put in the effort to be able to get their goal score. Excited to work with everyone!

*EDIT: Even if you are planning to take the LSAT later, please free to join this discord. It is never too early to start joining these study groups. I have pushed the LSAT for about six months so I am more than aware that plans change. I want to create a community on the discord server that goes beyond me taking the test :)

Hi people, I am looking for a study buddy, it's my first time here.

It would be great if you are also aiming at high 160s, or even 170. Even better if you are good at RC / LR.

My strength would be LG sequencing, we can exchange our views and approaches.

I live in Hong Kong, just in case you're from a different time zone.

Please comment down here and I will shoot you a message :)))

Hello everyone, looking for another person or a few people (3-4) to study with for the November exam. Looking to score into the 160s. I am located in PST zone and would be willing to work with a group a 2-3 days per week if our schedules can align. If you are interested, please PM and we can create a group chat. Currently working part-time so my scheduling is open. Thanks!

Hello everyone,

I am currently looking for a study partner, I am going through the core curriculum again to gain a more thorough understanding of the sections and concepts. If you are a person that has been scoring high on practice tests and have mastered the concepts behind the questions, and would not mind helping me, please send me a message. Thank you!

Can someone please explain to me, when it comes to General Theory, Specific Theory, Guided Application and Problem sets. Where can I go on the CC to learned these fundamentals. Thank You!

After studying for approximately 3 months, I scored a 163 in June. At the time I was PT’ing at about 164. In August, I scored a 163 after PT’ing at about 169. My PT high was a 170. Last weekend I scored a PT high of 173. I feel as though I was significantly better at the test in August and there were no extraordinary circumstances — albeit two difficult RCs.

I plan on taking the October LSAT. My contention is that it would be difficult for me to afford a pricy tutor. I have an LSAC fee waiver, so if there are any tutors who offer discounted services, I would be very interested in working with them.

Hello everyone!

I'm PTing in the high 150's and low 160's but my goal is definately high 160's. I am retaking in October after doing kinda poorly in August :( but that's in the past now, Let's move on to better things :). Please PM me if you're interested

Hi Folks, I have been studying for just under a year and taken the LSAT twice. I am stuck in the high 150's and can't seem to break 160 (which is my goal score) I have a full time job and am attempting to go back to school after a long time since undergrad. I have done Magoosh LSAT prep and all the core curriculum for 7sage but I struggle to remember all the concepts under time pressure or some of them still just aren't sticking. Any advice for pushing up a few more score points?

thanks in advance!

I'm planning on taking on the LSAT in February, 2022. I have a pretty good understanding of the LSAT, but I need some structure. If anybody has any recommendations, I'd really appreciate it.

Thanks,

Anthony

Hi all! Looking to do an essay editing exchange. Primarily personal statements but I'd also be willing to exchange other essays or resumes as well. Comment or inbox me if interested! Thanks and good luck to everyone!

Hello everyone, I'm still going through the core curriculum and currently on the sufficient assumption section. I wanted ti improve my studying techniques and I was wondering how you were all effectively taking notes on the specific questions. By that I mean the questions in the problem sets and the questions that occur individually before the problem sets. Is it more useful to write out notes or to use the note taking feature provided for us? What exactly do you all find useful to write down?

So I got sucked into the words when I was doing this. This is a clear necessary/sufficient question.

The logic structure, however, was fairly simple. IF retail store has Revenue decrease (RD), that means EITHER Attitde changed or P risen. IF P risen, salaries not Kept Pace. RD--> A or P, and then P --> /SKP.

Question stem shows that salaries kept pace, so SKP contrapositive of P --> /SKP is SKP-->/P. In English: SKP means that Price not risen. Then we go into the answer choice. When I was doing it, I saw D and thought hey if the other condition happened, that means the Revenues does not decrease, Chose D, but no. Both P and and A are necessary condition for RD. Satisfying RD leads to either A or P, but satisfying A or P means nothing to RD, and /P does not lead to A as the sufficient condition RD has not been met. The decrease revenues can still happen, or it would not. Basic lawgic lesson here. AC A is a popular choice, but /P in the condition chain of RD--> A or P doesn't do anything; so /P does not lead to A being satisfied.

Takeaway: be very sensitive to conditional words like IF, and remember the foundational lawgic. IF introduces sufficient condition, and satisfying necessary condition is not enough.
