Just a few weeks ago, I was seeing my RC score improving. I was at about -6 or -7, which definitely was an improvement for me as RC was something I was scared of. However, as of late, I am consistently getting -10 on my practice tests and full section RC practices. I am looking for any tips to resolve this, or even hypotheses as to why this may be happening. I am taking the August LSAT and really want to land in the 160's, but this is hindering my process and making me nervous. Thank you!

Over the past month and a hlaf, ive done ~2 hours of drilling every day, WAJ for drills, Preptests once a week, and over 6 preptests Ive basically gotten a 158-162 on every single one of them. Starting to get very discouraged at the fact that Im just wasting 2-3 hours of my day every single day to not improve.

Salespeople always steer customers toward products from which they make their highest commissions, and all salespeople in major health stores work on commission. Hence, when you buy vitamin supplements in a major health store, you can be sure that the claims the salespeople make about the quality of the products are inaccurate.

Obviously this is an ad hominem. I know that. But we are taught to apply a two step test: descriptively accurate and does it describe the flaw.

the right answer choice?

infers that some claims are inaccurate solely on the basis of the source of those claims

translation: 1-99 of claims are inaccurate, solely on the basis of the source of those claims.

how is this descriptively accurate? the argument assumes because sales people have specific incentives, salespeople are not telling the full truth.

the argument never says SOME claims are inaccurate, instead it says THE CLAIMS ARE INACCURATE. how the hell am I supposed to see the invisible some? Also the argument never says they are liars because they are sales people, it says it's because they work on commission.

someone tell me how I am wrong. I feel like im getting punished for being detail oriented.

Bugs in taking PTs and Drills

Hi guys! Is anyone else experiencing the bug I'm currently seeing in the New 7Sage? I'm presently taking PrepTest 126 and am in the second section of the PT; the stimulus periodically scrolls up automatically.

Additionally, sometimes when I'm doing drills, my webpage will automatically refresh and force me to look at the first question, regardless of which question I'm on.

If anyone has any advice, please don't hesitate to let me know. This is my first time making a discussion post, so please be nice haha :)

bug with analytics

Hi! Looking for tech support: my average missed questions section in my analytics is broken for RC. I'm told I have an average of -0, and unfortunately, this is not true! Is there a reason its not updating properly? Would be helpful to track progress.

I have noticed that blind review is sometimes an option after completing the individual questions and drills in the core curriculum, and sometimes it is not. Is there a way to tell before we open the question if we will be given the chance to blind review?

Hi! I have been studying for the LSAT for a couple months now. However, I have just started using 7Sage and am planning on taking the exam in September. There are plenty of resources availble but I will not have time to get through the entire course in the 2 months. Any advice on which parts of the platform I should focus on to get the best & most efficient use in the next 2 months?

🙃 Confused

Context vs. Premise

Hi! I am starting to get into deeper content analysis after doing a good bit of practice, I want to get some clarification on how to discern the difference between premises and context, for the sake of the author's argument. This is a general area that could help me, but the question came up originally when I was reviewing Argument Part questions.

Does anyone have recs for questions/drills I can do to improve on alternative hypotheses? I'm practicing S/W/E but this flavor always trips me up!

Ex: this argument is strengthened/weakened by proving/disproving an alternative hypotheses

No Access

A couple of weeks ago, I made sure to transfer my account from the old website to the new one. I also reviewed all the lessons in the new platform's Core Curriculum that I had already completed on the old site, just to ensure I was fully up to date with my studies.

However, after taking a short break, I logged back in today and found that I can no longer access any of the lessons—despite having already transferred my account and being actively billed. All the lessons are locked, and whenever I click on one, I'm met with the message "You need to activate LawHub Advantage on your connected LawHub account. An active LawHub Advantage account is required to access 7Sage subscription content." This wasn’t required before, and now it seems I’m being asked to pay an additional $120/month for a LawHub Advantage account just to access content I’ve already paid for. I don't understand, so it would be great if someone could get back to me about this. I'm really hoping it's just some technological mishap.

Hey guys! I need some help! So, I've taken the LSAT in June and officially scored a 164, but on my PTs I averaged mid to high 160's. I have only ever broken 170 on a blind review PT (I got a 173). Other than that, I struggle to break out of the 160's. I am registered for the August LSAT; how do I break 170's by then?

With one admissions cycle closing and another about to open, Tajira McCoy and her panel of law school deans field a series of questions many applicants consider at this point of the admissions cycle:

When does it make sense to reapply in the coming admissions cycle (and do I really need to change my personal statement)?

What if I decide to attend the best school that admitted me and then try to transfer next year?

What are the considerations for transfer admission, especially given new trends in legal recruitment?

And, heck, have you ever wondered why you’re doing this Our deans’ give advice to their past selves about the doors and opportunities a legal education will open for them.

All that - and more - is covered in the latest roundtable.
