I know how to translate rules when there is an indicators present but I am having trouble when there isn't an indicator. I confuse not both with always apart sometimes and it effects my timing.
for example on In/out problem set 2:
fenugreek is not included in the same recipe as nutmeg F(-)/N
Saffron is not included in the same recipe as Turmeric S (-)/T
initially translated these as not both. is it because its an in/out game that they are forever apart
on In/out with sub categories problem set 1 game 1
Gibson and Vega do not serve on the panel in the same year as each other
Hsu and young do not serve on the panel in the same year as each other
both are translated as not both rules according to lesson
help please
Is it a good idea to reuse personal statements from previous application cycles? Long story short: I applied during last year's cycle (2020-2021) but decided to work a year and reapply during this cycle (2021-2022). My statement was well-written and even received positive feedback from my colleagues and peers. That being said, should I go through the process of writing a new one or just edit/revise/add to the one from the last cycle? I wanted to confirm that it doesn't put off the admissions reps who may have previously reviewed my application.
Hope everyone is doing well.
I took the Feb 2022 LSAT and my score still has not been released. Should I be worried now? I expected a slight delay in the release, but not this long! Has anyone else who took the Feb 22 LSAT not received their score yet?
Thank you!
Is it better to have a cancellation and a higher score....or a low score paired with a higher score?
I don't understand how you would go about this question because all of the answer choices sound bad. Why would A be the answer? Is it because you're pointing out a potential alternate cause?
Looking for people who are taking the Lsat in August .
Hello! I have been studying for the test for about a year, and I have a low 160s on the official test, although I was consistently in the mid-160s. Ultimately, I’m still studying to get a higher score. I wanted to begin tutoring to those who aim to get in the 150s so that I can offload what I have learned to get myself into the 160s.
I hope that tutoring will provide me with a fresh perspective for the test, and I know that I can be of help to those scoring in the 130-140s currently!
Let me know if you’d be interested! I’m thinking of offering tutoring sessions at $25/hour, but LMK if you have concerns.
tbh the "background noise" feature, i use the coffee shop one all the time.
does anyone have other favorite features?
Hello 7 sage, I was trying to find any notation/annotation methods and strategies for RC but unfortunately couldn't find any. Can anyone please provide me with the link to them. I saw references of methods from @Pacifico and Nicole Hopkins but couldn't find them =(
Hi guys, I'm a UCLA alum, 23, looking for a study buddy/buddies in Socal. I'm scoring 155-163, looking to increase my score to high 160s. Ive been studying on and off for a few months now, and I've got the base down pretty well. Will most likely take the LSAT in a few months.
I want to have a buddy so that we can hold one another accountable.
DM me if you're interested.
The title says it all but I'd really like to know what exactly do you do when you get questions incorrect for RC, especially confidence errors? I have questions where I literally cite the lines I get my answers from and it still turns out to be...incorrect. My first instinct is to look at the answer key after BR and the 7sage video but I'd like to get any tips on how to improve my protocol because the routine I've been doing isn't getting me beyond the mid-160's.
And as always, if anyone reading this post is exceptional with RC, I am also open to any one-on-one tutoring you could provide. If that is the case, I would like to see your score first and have a trial lesson before I fully commit. I want someone who could teach me some overarching concepts about RC because I've been mainly focused on trying to understand the content of the passages alone and it isn't working. I categorized this post as RC but honestly, it can extend to LR as well. And I will pay you by hour after the session is over before we log off zoom.
Hello, am looking for a study partner to meet online 1x a week to review wrong questions. Feel free to PM if interested.
Hey! I'm Sonia. I'm planning on taking the LSAT in September, and was wondering if anyone from the Salt Lake City area would be interested in becoming study buddies?
Let me know by dming or responding to this post!
Thanks :)

Hi,
I have a question about how the LSAC would handle LORs in my circumstances. My current timetable is to graduate undergrad May 2023, submit apps ~Fall 2024, matriculate in Fall 2025. My question is can I receive a letter of recommendation, have my recommender upload it to LSAC say around Fall 2022, and then wait to use that letter for the Fall 2024 application cycle. Or would I need to receive, upload and submit a letter of recommendation a set certain amount of time before my desired application cycle?
Naturally, I would think that (most) recommenders would be able to provide a more descriptive, elaborate recommendation fresh off of my experience with them, whether it be in a course or a research project, etc, so that's why I would think to acquire these letters as early as I can, have them sit in the LSAC LOR account for a few years, and send them out with my application when its time. Is there a flaw in my reasoning here/ is this possible?
I’d appreciate any help, and am glad to provide clarification on my situation.
Thanks!

Hi Everyone!
The past few weeks, I have gotten into the habit of taking two practice tests a weekend because I work full time, and it's draining to do practice tests after work. I then spend the time in between (weekdays, mostly) completing the BR. This seemed to be working okay until this last weekend where I realized I got way too overconfident on LR and bombed all four sections I took. Do you guys think it's best to take one test and fully complete the BR before taking the next one? Or do you think the way I am doing it now makes sense?
Thanks for your input and for being a great group of supportive people!
I used Loophole + my own method to make the LR formulaic as much as i could atleast. This method will help with NA, weakness, and strengthening questions for most part. other questions are i think much easier
P1: Infection with vaccine is coincidence
Conclusion: Vaccine is not of any concern
Loophole "what if" method apply leading to negated conclusion to show it can be of concern
"What if" x can be of a concern
What if infection with vaccine has worse outcome then it is of concern.
NA would be: infection with vaccine is same outcome/severity
Weakness: Worse severity
Strengthening: same or lesser severity
What if basically doing it this way helps you pick up the gap to play with. LMK if anyone has any questions. Feel free to put in your inputs thanks!.
Hey everyone,
Since the LSAT adopted the modern 3-scored-section / 75-raw-question test, the raw score to percentiles conversion from the old 4-scored-section tests are no longer accurate. Can you help us figure out the new conversion tables?
If you took the August, October, or November LSAT, please send us (studentservice@7sage.com or my inbox) an anonymized screenshot of your official LSAT score.
Here's the table that we've built based on student score reports so far:
Thank you so much for your help!
Aiming for high 170s. Got 169 in January. Working on consistency in RC and LG.
