I am looking to create a study group that is a hybrid of online and in person. I am from Atlanta and would love to get more people in my inperson study group if possible.

When I started this journey in March, I quickly realized that having a community around you works wonders for the psyche and for scoring well on the test. I got a 158 on the April LSAT, only studying for a few weeks and using a book. I felt like I could do better if I got a website like this. It was also hard to find people to study with.

I am available almost every day; I've made this my full time job for the summer. I would love for anyone to join and could not care less about your background/limitations. Everyone is welcome.

If you are interested in forming a study group, please contact me!

Does anyone know where you can practice translating for English to logic for inference questions. For example a bunch of question stems for practice and we translate them to logic.

Hi everyone,

I am currently studying existential quantifiers and although I understand the concept of existential quantifiers, I find it difficult to apply the concept to MBF questions. I've only done a couple of MBF questions with existential quantifiers, but was wondering whether you need to use existential quantifiers for each MBF question? Also, what types of logical reasoning questions require us to use existential quantifiers?

If possible, can someone please reference some questions that require us to utilize existential quantifiers? I would greatly appreciate it! Thanks in advance :).

I'm reviewing RRE LR questions. I came across PrepTest February 1997 Section 1 Question 23 (the one about the professor's travel plans) in a drill. Even after blind review, I got it wrong. I know the right answer, but I don't know why it's right or why the other ones are wrong. Can someone explain it to me? I'm not sure where to even start with this one.

Just want to share my notes/thought process!

Cannot is G4 negate necessary

Good legal system -> well paid

Police well paid -> good legal system

Flips lawgic

A. E. Irrelevant

B. Must is a stretch, we dont care about them

C. Effective is irrelevant

D. Yes, it should be a NC but it switches to SC which doesn’t warrant the lawgic if NC is satisfied

I identified the premise and conclusion as the following:

P1: Spy is identified as the only clergyman working at the French embassy

P2: Bruno had been ordained a member of the clergy long before he started work at the embassy

Concl: Bruno must have been the spy

I narrowed down to A and C and eventually picked C, which was the wrong answer.

I thought C was correct since his lack of French skills meant that he lacked the skillset that the spy had. On the other hand, I eliminated A because "not being dressed or functioned as a member of the clergy" is insufficient to prove Bruno wasn't a clergyman at all. He might have been an inactive member but could still have retained his clergyman title. I still don't see why C is wrong and A is correct. Can anyone walk me through the correct reasoning?

Hi everyone,

Just have a few questions for those who will be writing upcoming lSAT test dates, or who who have written the LSAT online in the past.

What methods or tips can I use to mitigate the disadvantages of writing the test online vs paper? For example, for questions I find it very important to highlight and circle key words. I assume there is no option like this for the online version.

Thank you.

If I am taking my first LSAT in August, and have already begun studying the syllabus, how should I incorporate practice drills and PTs to maximize my efficiency? Should I complete the syllabus fully and then complete practice drills and PTs after? Or should I mix in practice drills and PTs within my studying of the syllabus?

Hello team,

is the Syllabus the 7sage curriculum and do we need to complete all of it before moving on to make a study an individual study plan with Julia?

Did anyone else move immediately away from A because of the more absolute syntax that was being used? I answered incorrectly in both my regular round AND in blind review...

As someone who just took their first official LSAT in June, I feel confident that 7sage works wonders. I recommend that you volunteer to answer questions as much as possible. Doing this helped the classroom instructors narrow down what I was doing well, and help me define what I needed to improve upon.

The more I showed up to classes, the more the instructors had time to help my specific issues. While the instructors did a great job working with all the students, there is value in being a repeat and active volunteer. As I grew in the courses and classes, I started asking specific questions and getting more specific feedback. Some of the advice I received was absolutely valuable to improving my overall score.

I recommend even if you are feeling hopeless and that the LSAT is a monster, that you volunteer in classes. Do your best to treat it like a part-time job and show up often and on-time. Experiment with each tutor and try out each of their individual approaches. Finally, don't skip over the courses that are Review or Study Plan focused, these specific courses usually had lower classroom attendance, and had more time to give very specific answers to my questions.

I would not have felt nearly as prepared for this test without 7sage. For anyone on the fence, go all in. It's worth it.

Hi! I've recently started taking my lsat studying seriously (I started studying end of may and have consistently been working for about 5 hours per day which I will continue for the next few months). I'm wondering what LSAT exam I should be taking. My diagnostic score was a 157 untimed (I'm an anxious person in general so I'm sure if I took it timed right now my score would decrease). I am hoping to increase overall to a 165ish, and I am wondering how long that generally takes to achieve that score increase. I know this stuff isn't linear, but I'm looking for a general idea. I haven't really had anyone to guide me through this process at all (applications, LSAT prep, or otherwise), and I thought that taking the LSAT in October would be perfectly normal, but I'm now realizing that maybe it's not if I would like to apply to schools by December of this year. I don't know if I'm on the right track at all, so any guidance would be greatly appreciated! #helpme #inquiry
