Hi, I’m working on the 12 LR Drilling sections for MSS questions, and I could use some tips for Blind Review. A lot of what I have listened to makes me as if Blind Reviewing would be more effective when doing PTs. But what i’ve been doing so far is watching the explanation videos for questions I get wrong and then writing down why I get them wrong and why the right answer is right. But I still seem to miss a couple questions during each drill. Any tips?
So I decided to wait until January for the LSAT. I had some pretty significant losses and struggles summer 23 and did not feel I would be ready by November. I even switched full-time jobs in November.
With that is the January LSAT too late for applications too really be considered?
Some people on the forms have talked about this admissions cycle being much slower then normal. Is that what most people are experiencing even in offers?
I have seen so much variation in opinion and I know we are not in the minds of the admissions office, but still just want to gauge general feelings on this.
Stats wise my UGPA was 3.91 (3.92 with CAS report) from a decently competitive institution. I had some technical issues in my final section of the Jan LSAT but otherwise felt really comfortable with all the questions I had.
I know we will all be super stressed until the scores are released...
The fourth game specifically I thought was tricky and wanted to see if there are any inferences I missed
Current student in Philly planning on taking the August LSAT, practice test-ing in the 155-160 range looking to get up to 170+ range. Let me know if you're interested, and also preferred method of communication. Thanks :)
Is E the right answer because it is the only choice that addresses jurisdictions that have mandatory headlight usage? Thanks.
I originally put A, I now understand why A is wrong. But I don't really understand why D is the right answer choice and what it means by "supposed class allegiance"
Hello! Is it likely that LSAC will add more test dates to the April 2024 LSAT? I noticed they had 4 October and 4 January dates so I am just curious.
Hello Can someone get me in contact with a student from UCI Law? I am writing my "Why UCI" essay and I want to get more information from a previous or current student at UCI.
Is anyone in the DC/DMV area taking the lsat before the logic games get removed that still needs to do fool proofing?
I printed out all the logic games from 1-35 with the intent of fool proofing but I didn’t get to it and now I’m gonna take the lsat post logic games so don’t need it. Would love for it to go to someone instead of just tossing it! DM me if you want it!
I was wondering when implementing drills into your studying how you guys do it? Should I be trying to drill a specific type of question (i.e like MSS in LR, SA in LR, or Grouping in LG, etc) and don't move on to another question type until you get 100% timed? Or do you move on once you get 100% BR?
Or are there any other strategies that help you guys more?

Is using questions from the newer PTs something students do once they’ve completed the core curriculum? I was referring to once I finish it.
Hi everyone, sorry if this is a basic question but I haven't found a consensus online. How often are law school supplemental essay prompts repeated? Are they mostly kept the same year to year? I want to go ahead and begin brainstorming and drafting essays for the 2024-2025 cycle while I have some free time but there's no point if the essays are different each year. For example, are schools that did "Why X" essays this cycle likely to have them again next cycle? Thanks in advance!
Hi, for those you who have scored 170 and over on the LSAT, do you recommend doing untimed drills instead of timed drills when you’re in the core curriculum? I just started learning about logic in the curriculum, but I would do timed drills with the time and a half accommodations and get 2-3 questions wrong. Though I would get more correct once I did blind review, and I did that for every set, and wrote down why I got each question wrong and why the right answer was correct. I would appreciate any help!
Does anyone know how to access the giant web outline with all the components that the guy uses through the LR sections it looks like a massive web I would really like access to it to see all the essentials components outlined on a visual field.
Hi all!
Thanks for showing up to Free Live Class Day on Monday and our Proctored PT last Saturday! If you missed it, or if you're ready for more practice taking a full LSAT Prep Test under simulated online proctor conditions, you're in the right place. The next Proctored PT will take place on Saturday January 27 at 1:00 PM.
Looking forward to the Blind Review sessions on Monday for PT 72. Anyone can access the recordings for our January 23rd classes Blind Reviewing PT 73 here: LR and RC! We covered the group's flagged questions in LR––the crowd had a bone to pick with Flaw and Assumption questions. Getting to the bottom of the meaning and structure for Passage 2 and 4 in the RC section was a journey. If you wanted to see what Cameron's "fancy-subject" photos actually look like, here you go! They are kinda depressing after all.
Here's how our Proctored PTs work:
Once you sign up, you'll receive an email from Zoom with the link to join the meeting.
Select a PT that you want to take for the proctored test. This week's recommended PT is test 72; you're encouraged to attend the associated Blind Review sessions on Monday! (LR Review | RC Review). You can take the PT through 7Sage, or- if you want to simulate real test-day conditions- you can log into LawHub and take it there.
Show up to the Zoom meeting 10 minutes before the scheduled start time (12:50 PM ET). You will all be prompted to complete a room scan (similar to the test-day security measures) at the same time and then put into a breakout room by yourself to complete the test.
Simulate the test! Our 7Sage Proctors will monitor the testing process for the duration of your test and even simulate a pesky interruption. The Proctor will ask if anyone would like to be interrupted at the beginning of the session, and you will have the chance to indicate your preference. If only the Prometric proctors would be so kind as to ask! If you have any approved accommodations, please let us know via private chat at the beginning of the session as well––you will be able to test with those.
If you have any questions, please email bailey.luber@7sage.com. We hope to see you there!
I just did the skill builder for drawing valid conclusions 1 and I can't wrap my head around it at all is there any other better more in depth explanation for it?
Hello all
I am working on finalizing my law school applications these days and waiting for my Jan Lsat score to come out.I know its late in the cycle but I want to apply for fall 2024.I am wondering whether I should try to finish them up by Jan 31st or take a bit more time to work on them and submit first or second week of February?Would it actually make any difference on my chances of getting admitted since Jan its almost over anyways...
Hello!
Could some explain to me why C is correct and how they arrived to the answer? Would also appreciate it if you could tell me why the other answer choices, especially D (which is what I chose), are incorrect! Thank you so much.
Admin Note: Edited title. For LR questions, please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."
Hi! My name is Ken. I recently started studying for the LSAT again. I am wondering if anyone wants to do it together. I used to have a score of around 170s and can meet at Gangnam on weekdays preferably somewhere from 10 am-3 pm. Please let me know!

Hello!!!
I'm looking for some study partners!!! I scored a 165 last year and I am trying to get a 170+.
Would love some mutual help/guidance/accountability to make sure I am getting in the study I can. I'm a full time graduate student in music composition at the moment, so it's a bit harder to get to studying than what I would have suspected...please reach out if you are interested! Thanks!!!
Hey there! Anyone in the Purdue area looking for LSAT study buddies? If so, LMK!
Anyone up for NON-American time zone study buddies? No hard feelings to my fellow American friends - I learned that when the time zone is different, it's pretty much impossible to keep each other accountable for studies. Msg me your telegram ID.
Hi,
Since this has no video explanation for it, I want to know whether I fell in line with the rest when I reached that conclusion. In this question, the author argues that butter manufacturers should be allowed to call their products "Can't believe it's not butter or Skim fat butter" to ward off any negative nuances from the term "Imitation butter". This person cites two reasons to back up one's allegation. A) People should be fostered to consume more low fat butter products because of their health concerns, arising from a high cholesterol level. B) This hostile naming like Knock-off/Ersatz could stave potential consumers off from those well-intentioned products owing to their aversion to the names. In that way, the industry could push people to indulge in more butterfat which could pose a threat to their health (esp. cardiovascular). In order to weaken this assertion, I thought it would be better off for me to claim that this aversion could beget more positive results healthwise for those buyers in the market. What if they, finding those suggestive names unbearably repulsive, decided to find the authentic low fat butter products which significantly slashed the fat content? For instance, they would rather find a real McCoy low fat butter, projecting an image of authenticity,instead of phonier butter substitutes, which happened to have less butterfat in it? People who voted for Trump would rather turn to him to gratify their desires, whatever they might be, in lieu of settling down for his miniature, Ron DeSantis, emulating his extreme creeds. I just thought that it was important for me to tackle the author's point that the negative naming could take a toll on public health because it deters people from purchasing the imitation butter which is healthier for them thanks to the low fat content in comparison with the regular ones. Thus, one of the ramifications was supposed to bear the unexpected consequence that made everyone more robust and hale: cutting off the consumption of butterfat more noticeably than what was expected from the fake butter. What are your thoughts on this? I would like to hear from other would-be legal minds. Thanks!
Could anyone kindly give me some advice? My LSAT score is one point lower than the last time. This is my second LSAT taking, and I plan not to take LSAT in the future. So should I cancel my score this time or should I keep it?
