Basically title. I am at a point where I can finish each LR section with about 10-15 minutes still on the clock which gives me enough time to go through all the questions I flagged and review the latter half of the questions even if I didn't flag them. In this case, should I still be blind reviewing? If the point of the BR is to become confident on questions I didn't get to fully because of time, then it seems like it wouldn't be necessary? Feels odd to not BR but I don't find myself changing my answers if I BR those sections.

I want to see the explanation video for my drill question but it says discuss instead? How can I see the explanation video

at what point during the CC should you start drills? Or is this something you save until you're done the CC?

Hi! I was wondering if anyone would like to join a study group with me. I am currently aiming for the October & November cycle and would like to review LR/RC! Please let me know if interested :)

In Oscar's argument, he mentions "..and thus a country's economic well-being will not be a function of its geographical position..."

What the hell is "function of geographical position"? I have no idea what this means.

Does being northern or southern itself implicates any function? or does "economic well-being" serves as a function?

I get the idea that generally north is rich and south is poor as presupposed in the stimuli but simply don't understand that phrase.

Can somebody help?

I picked C, but I'm still struggling to understand the stimulus. Please help!

My stop/start break accommodation got approved and I want to be able to take PTs like the real thing, but I dont see a pause or "stop/start" feature when I am taking a PT on 7 sage. Am i missing something or is that not a feature that is available to 7 sagers?

I'm going through some of the core curriculum after doing a comprehensive study book with Kaplan, and I'm doing some drills now. Would you suggest I hold myself to time constraints during those drills? For example, I just completed a 5 question drill set with a pretty difficult question (5 stars) that I ended up getting correct, but it took me 5 minutes when the suggested time was 1:33. I know there's BR too, I'm just not sure if it is worth it to do timed practice right now.

I am planning on taking my LSAT between October 12 and 16. Which means my score will be released as early as Nov. 1 (assuming I completed my writing section in advance). You can take the Writing portion up to 8 days prior to your scheduled LSAT date, or you can take it AFTER the LSAT. However, it takes 1-3 weeks for LSAC to attach your writing to your application. Therefore, completing the writing section after your LSAT can delay your test results by as much as 2 weeks (assuming you took 2 weeks to study for the writing section after the LSAT).

I think it makes more sense to complete the writing section after the LSAT so that it does not cut down on my time used to prepare for the LSAT. I feel super rushed and did not prepare far enough in advance, so I think this is a better option for me.

Any other thoughts?

I am FURIOUS. The deadline was 31 August and I submitted on the 15th. I remember it clear as day, going through the form, uploading my evidence, and it said my request had been received. I chased it because I thought 4 weeks was a long time for them to decide, and they are telling me I never submitted them. I can’t sit without my accommodations and as an international student the next sitting is in January. I feel like they’ve totally scuppered my law school chances and I hate how they’re telling me I didn’t do something I know I did!!! Any advice? :(

Does anyone have any tips on how to master logic games in general?

was anyoen granted the sept retake? Prometrics website is down and they said that times have not been posted ffor ET? Has anyone scheduled their exam yet?

So I understood that to weaken the claim against alternative medicine in the stimulus, I needed to find an answer showing any evidence that alternative medicine is effective. I also see that D does this in a more specific way than C.

I was stuck between C and D, but I ultimately eliminated D because it didn’t specifically connect alternative medicine to the bodily effects of a patient believing in their treatment. For D to be right, I’d have to assume that the “medical treatment” the patient believes in is alternative medicine, and not orthodox medicine.

I chose C because it actually connects alternative medicine to an “effect,” even if that effect is something less tangible like hope. D would be a much better answer if it explicitly connected a patient's belief in alternative medicine to bodily effects, but it doesn't. It just describes the effects of a patient's belief in their medical treatment, which could be either alternative or orthodox medicine.

When I’m choosing between two answers, I’ve learned to choose the answer that requires me to make fewer assumptions and leaps. But this question is making me question that entire strategy. How can I safely assume that the “medical treatment” in answer choice D refers to alternative medicine? There isn't anything in the stimulus, question stem, or answer choice that allows me to make that assumption, so I must be missing something.

Can anyone help me understand how it's a warranted assumption that "medical treatment" in D refers to alternative medicine? I'm stumped.

When solving, "Sequencing Game w/a Twist Problem Set 2," for example, I ended up solving these games multiple times. When I click view results, immediately after testing myself, it will show me the results that I just got. But when I exit out and come back and press view results, it shows me the results for my first attempt. Further, it will not allow me to page forward or backward with the arrows to look at the results for each of my other attempts.

I'm pretty sure I got this working correctly once. But not sure how...

I thought the answer was B because they both seemed to disagree about the finical aspect of the building

Hi all,

If you're interested in joining a study group where all we do is co-work on zoom, keep each other accountable via imessage and support each other message/ or comment below!

This isn't meant to be a study group where we review questions and Blind Review, but rather an accountability group for people who struggle to keep a consistent schedule and need a little more support. (This is especially a great group if you struggle with ADHD, anxiety/ are neurodivergent or not!)

If you are the type of person that loves hyping/supporting other people and appreciates words of encouragement this is the group for you :)

Is anyone else taking the October LSAT? Scheduling hasn't come out yet and I am wondering when to sign up???

Hi, so to give a little background.

I've been studying for about two months going from 151 diagnostic to 164 currently. I'm proud of my progress with RC being my best naturally and I've seen the most gains in LG, though I definitely need to improve there as well. LR has been my toughest opponent and probably what I've spent the most time on. I currently sit at around -4 to -7, progressing from an initial -10. The biggest thing I see is my problem accuracy is not very much of a pattern. My wrong questions are always different types and another thing is I see I often get like 3-4 of my wrong answers in a row. I was looking for any tips to address improvement at this current performance point in LR. Any tips are greatly appreciated. Thank You!

Not too sure if I'm the only one that thinks there should be an option to add titles to drills. I often make drills specific to a question type or game type and it would be so easy and helpful having the ability to title my drills so when I go back and redo them.

Can someone help with this question!

Hello,

I'm coming on here to ask how often should we be taking prep tests? Should they be taken after learnign the material from each section as a whole, or every subsection? How about drilling? What's a good schedule like?

Can someone please explain why C is correct?
