not sure how to increase my score i feel stuck

Did anyone else pick C instead of B? I thought that the 24 policy showed that it was important to have continuity of care so that if the doctors are tired during a shift it wouldn't have good continuity. But realizing now that I made a lot of assumptions and B is better. Is B right because it says that "now" there's a new policy that makes people stay in the hospital and that means that they're there at their most ill so its more important now to have good care?

Hi everyone,

I am just beginning my LSAT study journey and working through Foundations in V2 of the CC. For the quizzes such as complex arguments, for, since, because and others how many times have you guys retaken the quizzes to get the correct answers?

Here is what I am doing:

If I get the question right on the first try I do not retake the question. However, if I get it wrong, I retake the quiz and answer the questions until I get them correct twice.

What do you guys advise?

Jan - 160

June - 159

Planning on taking it again (not sure when) as both scores were below my average (168).

Should I keep or cancel the June score? Planning on keeping it since its within margin of error but don't want to regret it - will it hurt me?

Please provide explanation! how does the state of healthcare correlate to the argument being made?

Is the term "except" indicative of a biconditional or a group 3 conditional? I believe 7Sage says biconditional, but I have heard some say it is the same as 'unless' (group 3).

can someone explain why D is correct and the other ACs are incorrect? Maybe its bc its ab economic theory, but i struggled with this one and ended on D only bc the others seemed less plausible.

Hello all!!

Can someone please explain this? I thought I understood suf vs. nec, but then I got to this question. It just won't click what is happening in the argument, and the videos are not helping me as much.

Thanks!

Caitlin

I got this one wrong, I chose E, but now I see that we don[t know the relation between English literature and French literature, what we know is the origins of the language, trap answer for misreading.

The correct answer is A, cause its the only thing we can deduce from the stimulus.

B We don’t know

C We don;t know

D We don’t know

Anyone in Toronto/GTA taking the LSAT test later on this year and want to start a study group chat on whatsapp? PM your number.

Correct answer B The only thing we know for sure reading the argument is that the studies encourage overestimation of the degree to wich some food additives are carcinogenic.

A We don’t know

C We don’t know

D We don’t know

E We don’t know

I'm looking for suggestions on increasing my speed in LG. Here's a little background info: I'm usually averaging 14+ during Preptests, but both during BR and during untimed practices I am nearly getting them all correct (22+). During the timed drills and Preptests, I am able to make the inferences and split the boards, but not quickly enough to get ahead and finish all 4 games -or even all 3 sometimes. How do I increase my speed and get these game boards down faster (and still accurate, ideally)? And at what point does the practicing and BR-ing click where I'm doing this quickly and efficiently?

Help!

On Wednesday, June 28 at 8pm ET, join 7Sage admissions consultant Tajira McCoy for another panel discussion with law school admissions deans from across the country. For this conversation, hear from representatives of Boston College, Emory University, Loyola University Chicago, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, the University of Richmond, and the University of San Diego, as they weigh in on various parts of the reapplicant process and common reapplicant questions––should you write new documents? Will retaking the LSAT help? Will applying earlier make a difference? Do I have to specifically address being a reapplicant? We hope to see you there!

can someone please explain to me why the correct answer is "A" and not D? I was between those two but question stumped me in general

I understand that any choice proving that the murder rate would've been higher is correct, but I'm not understanding the connection between healthcare and assault victims. How is that relevant and what does it imply?

Can anyone help me on this question? I tried looking it up, but can't find it anywhere.

The advanced technology of ski boots and bindings has

brought a dramatic drop in the incidence of injuries that

occur on the slopes of ski resorts: from 9 injuries per 1,000

This is a MSS

By reading the stimulus and knowing were looking for a MSS. I can deduce that because some of the funghi that grows on the forest floor provided by dead logs are beneficial to some of the trees, than answer choice A is correct.

B We don't know

C We don't know

D We don'tknow

E Here they talking about Dead and decaying trees, the stimulus is referirng to Dead logs, which is different

Hi everyone! A few of us have planned dates to write PT'S together and then review as a group. We've selected to do Wednesdays, more specifically July 19th and July 26th. If successful we will plan more going forward.

We are open to planning more, or having additional silent study meets throughout the week.

Most of us are studying for the September writing date!

If you'd like to join our group, let me know! :)

Anyone have good tips or software to expand your vocabulary? I have been keeping a running list of definitions of unfamiliar words I have encountered, yet I would still like to expand my vocabulary outside of the LSAT

I recently took the June Lsat, I consistently scored between 160-163 on the four or five consecutive practice exams I took prior to my test. I ended up getting a 156 on the actual exam. I dont know if this drop may have been due to nerves (I had technical issues the day of my exam and was not able to start for an hour after my shceduled time and this had me very anxious and stressed). I took all PTs under real testing and time conditions. I wish there were a way to review my official LSAT and see which questions I missed etc. I am already registered for the August exam, this time at a testing center, and I'm hoping for a 160+. Any tips on what to do this time around? Im scared to not study effectively and just waste my time, I feel like I've done every LSAT question there is. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone,

I wanted to ask for some pointers on how to best use the 7Sage curriculum after having already completed a full Kaplan Course. I feel like I understand LR foundations pretty well and need the most help in LG and RC. I've taken 8 full length PTs and I've also done timing sections from a handful of other tests.

Is it better to start from scratch with 7Sage's full curriculum or skip to the video sections that target my weak areas? If you switched to 7Sage from another test prep provider, what did you do?

Looking for a serious study buddy; someone who would not mind meeting up in a library, B&N, or a Zoom/FT to study. Taking the LSAT in October. Contact me only if you are interested.

Hello! I just took PT1, and the questions on it seemed easier than the ones I've seen on later tests. (This is my subjective judgement that may have no relation to reality.) I'm just wondering if there is any possibility that the tests have become more difficult over time, and PT1 seemed easier because it actually WAS easier. Any thoughts? Thank you!

I'm looking to virtually meet once or twice a week via skype or zoom. I want to include anyone who has already went through the core curriculum and most of the Lessons. In the study group I want us to do problems together and share aloud what our reasonings behind each answer choice, which is why I want the group to be a small amount of people for efficiency. If anyone responds to this post I will add information for a groupme in comments.
