PrepTest B - Section 1 - Question 18

I got trapped in the cookie cutter AC A , misread it. My reasoning was fine, we need to make a subtle assumption that because the intended function of news is to give us information on which to act, news that primarily entertain does not serve its intended function, and thats given to us in AC D

Currently scoring -8-6 in LR. Would ideally like to get that closer to -5-3 before the November test. I know I’m stretching it, but what would the best way to do that be?

4 to 5 of my wrong questions tend to be at the end of the section 4 or 5 star question. Should I just drill that level of question? Would a tutor make a difference in this short of a time?

Thanks for any help!

Hi!!

Whenever I do Modern test with 1LR, 1LG, and 1RC I get about -5 ~ -6 on LR. However, when I do two LR it is -5/-6 on one LR but about -10/11 in the second one. I see the pattern but I am not sure what the issue could be?

Hi everyone! I just started 7sage as I tried other resources for studying and it was not enough nor useful to be honest.

I am taking the November 2023 LSAT and was wondering if there was anyone who would be interested in doing a virtual study group. Others are definitely welcome!

I just thought it would be nice to be with others in similar boats!

I am scared drills ate giving me false hope. I am able to attempt an answer quicker and eliminate with accuracy. I can get down between answer choices, with one being the right answer ( because before I was eliminating right answers) but on PT's I feel I am not as accurate as when I am drilling. any advice? I have studied the q stems and can easily point out what q type it is. Maybe test anxiety? can anyone offer any help

I've been studying for several months now, and I do pretty damn good on the drills and adhering to time constraints, but when I do the actual preptests i'm missing so much! I don't know if its anxiety or the fact that everything that comes up is hard.. but it's upsetting because I have such great hope for the October LSAT. I don't know what to do.

👥 Study Group Location: Virtual (preferably EST to make things easier!)

🔢 I'm currently scoring: 150 - 160

📆 My planned test date: Jan 2024

🔍 We'll focus on: timing, confidence, PT's, and reading comprehension

I also want to look at the group as an accountability group so we all know we have each other to lean on when things get hard and the journey gets lonely! We understand each other's circumstances and the road we are on, so we should stick together :)

📚 When we'll meet and what we'll do: zoom

✅ How to join: Message me on 7sage :)

Happy Studying!

From PT B - Section 1 - Question 06.

None except the most virtuous deserve praise

I know it's part of the 4th group, where you negate the necessary. But I've only seen examples like "none of the Americans are political" and there's no video guide for this one.

How does the "except" affect the translation?

I'm unsure if this is supposed to be...

I heard a suggestion to read the questions first for reading comprehension, and then read the essay. I was wondering if anybody has tried this and found it effective to help improve?

PrepTest A - Section 1 - Question 16

For this one I was able to gather my information to see how I could even weaken this argument. Automatically Bruno was accused of being the spy. In my process of reading this question type, I was automatically thinking of an AC that would no longer make him the spy in question. AC A gave that set up exactly. Although I was able to figure this question type out, I am wondering if there is a quicker approach for weakening/strengthening question types that could help me. I felt like I could've answered this one quicker than I did, so anything helps!

Is there anyway to view how long an entire drill set took you? I often take practice sections by adding all the questions onto a drill, while I can see each question and its target Im wondering if there's a way to view how long the whole session took me.

My mental health took a hit due to familial circumstances and I haven't studied in over a month. I think the end of August was the last time I even signed on.

I was feeling so motivated and excited about my progress and now I am feeling discouraged and struggling to get back into the swing of things as I work on my mental health. I think part of me is scared I will be back at square one when I try to jump back in. The bigger part of me is overall lost on how to get back into things. Should I be going back and reviewing old lectures, trying some easier, short drills, taking another diagnostic?

If anyone has any advice or words of encouragement, I would sincerely appreciate it.

I hope everyone is doing well with their prep and reaching their goals, if you're reading this, I know you've got this :)

According to LSAC a ton of people have signed up for October. I've been checking and refreshing to sign up for a seat in a testing center. I'm required to test at a testing center because I'm taking it pen/paper. I've searched for slots all over my state and even into the next closest state but it's not showing any availability. LSAC gave me Prometric's phone number. I've called and been disconnected every time. I called LSAC and they're like, meh, we can't help you, call them back. It's so frustrating. When I asked them point blank if I'm guaranteed a spot if I've paid and sign up they say no, that it's first come, first serve. And I asked them if, worst case, I don't get a spot, will I get my money back, they said no. How is that possible? Like you can't give a company your money and be denied the product? I will continue to refresh but LSAC sucks.

Hi, after creating a few drills using the AutoBuilder, I know longer see the option to create a drill of the incorrect when last taken - drill questions. Is there a way to get that option back? I don't know how else to practice the questions that I got incorrect when completing the 7Sage drills.

Okay, I have been working w SA questions since the end of August now, ( I am an undergrad student so doing this on top of classes is ass), and I feel like I am really missing something. I am missing more than half on some of these PS, and even during BR, I don't catch my errors. Does anyone have any advice on how to get the fundamental patterns of SA questions engrained in my head? Or even just how to go about re-visiting the foundations of SA questions (I feel like the video examples aren't too helpful in this section)

I was confused between answer choices A and E for this one.

Is A incorrect because it leaves out the part about researchers being puzzled by how kinglets are able to survive cold winter nights? I was trying to figure out if answer choice A had any descriptive/factual errors, but I couldn't find any, so I'm guessing the problem is that it doesn't address the fact that scientists are trying to figure out the mechanisms behind the birds' survival.

That seems to be the only difference between A and E.

I'm consistently spending too much time reading the passages. I'm pretty confident when going through the questions and I answer them quickly, but my timing issues while reading/sketching the structural outline of the passage foreclose my opportunity to reach the fourth passage, which forces me to guess on all the questions on the final passage. I only refer back to the passage for questions referencing specific line numbers, and my structural outline is normally around 3-7 words per paragraph (sometimes a few more depending on subparagraph breaks).

What sort of drills can I do to cut down my reading time?
