I recently took the LSAT writing section through the online proctored service. During the walk-through phase before the writing section is administered, the description states that any disallowed services on the computer will not be able to function once the LSAT writing section begins.

Surprisingly, while I was taking the writing section, Grammarly populated.

Has this occurred to anyone else?

Will the use of Grammarly disqualify my writing section?

Say you swapped "fatalities" to "head injuries" in AC D, would this constitute a necessary assumption? My feeling is probably no because it was never mentioned how many injuries, proportionally, were prevented by the new laws for motorcycle helmets, only that some were prevented. Head injury was also never mentioned as the most common injury for motorcycle riders. Please let me know if I am wrong!

Diagnostic was 157, currently scoring 173 in untimed.

I'm prepping for the October intl. exam this year and aiming for 170+ or 175.

Looking for people with similar goals, or just about anyone who's studying for the LSAT and are in their final year at uni or finished with undergraduate studies. Group study can be offline or online, goal is to build an IRL Lsat support group.

Language isn't a problem so anyone's welcome. People in similar time zones are welcome as well!

I am Currently Located in North Carolina! I am new to 7sage and the LSAT. I tend to learn better in group settings where discussion can be made and different approaches can be explained! If interested please reach out! Thank you! -Quinn

MBT on LG

If it's an MBT question on Logic Games and you are trying to figure out which answer choice works in all the worlds you created… if it works for one sub-gameboard/ world does it automatically work for all?

So I've made significant improvements to my LR (which is a win in itself). My basic method for doing this was 1.Do 10 random questions. If any wrong, drill that type of question at least 30 times until I mastered it. For example, if I got 1 flaw question wrong from that origInal set of 10, I did 30 more flaw questions until I got them all down. While this took a ton of time, it got me from -6-8 to-1-3 pretty consistently.

My question is, how in the world do I drill RC? I can't seem to find a good way to improve. Does anyone have any recommendations? Is it from doing a bunch of untimed RC's? Only drilling certain questions? I can't seem to figure it out.

If anyone has any tips, I'm all ears.

Thanks!

Hi! What are strategies for improving speed with logical reasoning? When I start timed sessions, I become anxious and often have to reread, but when I take my time I'm usually able to get the answer correct. Anyone else have this problem? Does this just go away after doing tons of practice questions? Thanks! #plshelp

I am confused by this question. I selected A as the answer when drilling and during blind review. During blind review I was hesitant and wanted to select C (which is the correct answer). Clearly, I do not understand this question fully and I can sort of make sense of it on my own but would love insight and a clear explanation.

Can someone go through this question and explain their thought process?

I think I was thrown off by this for two reasons. First, I was uncomfortable drawing the conclusion that Self Help books -> less visits and secondly, in the answer choices what "state of affairs" was referring to exactly?

Hi!

I was wondering,

How come we can use the same notation A -> notB to represent both cases of:

  • "A and B cannot be both selected" for in/out games AND

  • "A and B cannot be added to the same group" for grouping games,

    • when in the first scenario, it means at least one of them, A/B has to be in the OUT group,

    but for the second scenario, it means that it's either A in Group 1 and B in Group 2, or vice versa,

    instead of A/B in Group 1 (or 2).

    Basically, I would like to know why we can use the same notation for two scenarios that end up in different assignments.

    Thanks in advance for your help!! :)

    I want to work in medical law (specifically with medical device patents pertaining to mental health), so I am looking at applying to JD/MD programs. I was thinking about Psychiatry for residency (4 years). If I pass the bar during the school year (I believe it’s also held in February for NY bar) before residency starts, would it be possible to start working as a lawyer during my time in residency? Has anybody done this? Thanks in advance!

    Hello!

    I'm wondering if there are any lessons on these specific RC question types?

    (1) Inference

    (2) Inference -Author's Perspective

    (3) Recognition -What's Stated

    Can someone explain what these question types are asking us to do, and if you have any tips on how to identify the right AC? Has anyone recognized any wrong AC patterns when it comes to these question types?

    Thanks so much!

    Can anyone explain why C is the correct answer here?

    I believe (C) is correct because it is the contrastive of this argument: "For one to act Responsibly..." ---> "Act on the basis of information that one has made...."

    So ultimately, because "Toril act on basis of information that...." ---> "Toril act act responsibly"

    Just want to make sure I'm thinking about this correctly. Thanks!

    Hi, I'm planning to take the September LSAT with a target score of 168-170. (Ideally 170 but I'm not sure if that's realistic at this point.)

    My first diagnostic test, without doing any core curriculum, was 164 (I majored in Computer Science, so I was pretty familiar with logics to begin with). This was in early June, about two months ago.

    Now I have taken about 6 more PTs since I finished my core curriculum about a month ago. One of them was 170, but the others were consistently 166-167.

    I know it has improved a bit, but the improvements came from LG, going from average -4 to -1. The lack of improvements in RC I understand a little more, since RC is generally the hardest to improve, but my score in LR has either stayed the same, or even got worse (ranging from -4 to -7).

    This is worrying me quite a bit because I have been focusing mainly on LR; I worked a lot on dividing the section into the first 15 and last 10, timing strategy, and going back to CCs. Before, I had barely any time to do the last three questions or go over other questions at the end. Now I fly thorugh the first 15 ( except for maybe 1 or 2 harder questions) and I have a plenty of time to do the harder questions. There are even times that I have like 6-7 minutes left at the end of an LR section to look over certain questions one more time. I finish the sections way more confident than ever, but the results are so inconsistent. I usually get 1 easier question wrong, and the rest are from the last 10, ranging from 3 to 6 wrong answers. But even though I have improved in skills (better reasoning skills, hunting for the answer, skipping, timing, etc.), my score stayed the same or even got worse.

    I have a month left now, and I want to get at least 168 on this... Do you think this lack of improvement in score is from just not having taken enough PTs yet, or do you think maybe because I was familiar with logic in the beginning, I did not have a lot of room to improve in the first place?

    I have put in a lot of work for two months, but it's so discouraging not seeing my score imporve...

    It is recommended over and over again that w logic games it is key to print out the games and do them over and over again. I cant print the PDF versions of the games. Help! I know it is not an issue w my printer/computer bc I printed a different doc no problem
