No check marks or show results button on the drills it is making the syllabus unworkable wtf

I'm planning to take the LSAT in August 2024. I've been using the V2 platform and I am fairly through many of the LR lessons and the foundation courses. I plan to move onto RC in May. I am planning to finish off that section and between end of May and August hammer out as many prep test as I possible can to prepare myself for test day. Mainly for studying purpose right now, I drill and complete the lessons.

I'm feeling a bit insecure about my plan and I am curious to know if anyone else who is taking the exam after June has been completed any of the prep test yet and if so, would you suggest to begin doing them now?

Hello All,

After my last group died, I made a discord aimed at celebrating Black excellence and giving Black prelaw students a safe space to study and learn about the lsat. I’d love for you to join! We share resources, celebrate each others accomplishments, and have weekly study sessions. If you’re looking for serious study partners then this is the place for you. It’s also a great place to network with future classmates/coworkers/employers.

Hello,

I'm trying to understand why answer choice (a) for this question is incorrect.

I chose answer choice A and am struggling to understand why it's wrong. I understand why D is correct, but I can't get comfortable with ruling out A, and I went back and forth between the two for a while before deciding on A. The tutor in this video said that the issue lies with "all relevant respects", saying that we have no relevant connections to an anteater. However, I would think that we are talking in the frame of mammals - "all species that are similar in all relevant respects" = mammals, all of which, except for the anteater, dream. So, facts about one species of animal (spiny anteater, the specific facts being about their brain size) provide confirmation for hypotheses about all species that are similar in all relevant respects (mammals, the hypothesis being the parasitic connection hypothesis) to the particular species in question (again, spiny anteater). Does anyone have any additional thoughts on why this is wrong / other methods of ruling it out?

Hi everyone,

I am running low on untouched, high-numbered PTs, so I was wondering if I could use the new PTs without LG to get some practice in for the June LSAT? Or would that be frowned upon? I just want to make sure it's a sensible thing to do because I want to practice LR and RC more often than I want to practice LG anyway.

Hello 7SAGERS,

I have a question and it could be something others are thinking. My last time taking the exam was my 4th. One of my exams had a tech issue but it was counted even though I couldn't finish. I've been trying to do better with my study even thought I work two jobs, one full one P/T. I wanted to start law school in Fall 2024.

With only one more chance to take the exam this calendar year, and two more available over lifetime -- what would you do? I seriously want to change my career course and it feels like timing is everything but I also know that I need money to attend law school and that translates to your score. I have been seriously stressed about this. LG hasn't been my strong suit so I know I could wait until Aug or Fall to take it again, but that means applying for 2025 cycle and I've already put in apps for Fall 2024. I'm nervous that even if my last score is decent what if the schools have run out of funds for scholarship? ?And if I didn't do well, I am not sure if I should withdraw all of my apps or just wait for their decision - but I don't know if you can decline if you're accepted but you don't receive scholarships??

I'm seriously stressed about all of this. Can anyone inform on these questions I have? Thank you.

Hi! I live in the DC area and was wondering if there is anyone else out there who would like to get together and do some studying! Feel free to message me.

let me know!!

Hello friends,

Just curious when doing practice Preptests, you can filter to Legacy which includes 4 sections or "Current" which only includes 3 sections. I plan on taking the June 2024 LSAT. As far as I understand, there is still an experimental section on the actual LSAT so for practicing purposes are you guys doing the "Legacy" method of all 4 sections? For those doing PT's with the "Current" of 3 sections, what reasons do y'all have?

So, I understand that the argument is saying that because incidences of the flu were lower during the 6 months of the public health campaign, that means that the campaign was effective.

I chose C - there were fewer large public gatherings than usual during the 6-month period.

But the explanation says that C is wrong because it doesn't address the effectiveness of the campaign, that A is correct because it suggests widespread compliance with the campaign's recommendations of handwashing.

But this doesn't make any sense to me because handwashing isn't the only recommendation of the campaign. Avoiding public places when experiencing flu symptoms is also a recommendation. And if there were fewer large gatherings during the 6 month period of the campaign, then wouldn't that indicate to the effectiveness of it?

The explanation argues that A speaks to the effectiveness of the campaign more than C does because food born illness rates were also low, but what if people were not necessarily washing their hands as a result of the public campaign? Maybe they work in restaurants, where handwashing is necessary. Maybe they work in schools where handwashing vital. And the argument says that the campaign recommended hand washing specifically for reducing the transmission of the flu, what if people were washing their hands to not get sick from food borne illnesses, and the decrease in the rate of the flu was just a by product, which would make it seem like the campaign worked, but it didn't necessarily?

If the public health campaign's purpose was to limit the spread of influenza, and part of the recommendation was to stay away from public places when experiencing symptoms, and during the time of the campaign, there weren't as many large public gatherings, and the rate of the flu decreased...

I mean, I know that C doesn't necessarily mean people heeded the campaign, but neither does A. So how is A more correct than C?

I'm livid because this frustrating! lol

Also, I crossed out A because the argument didn't say anything about food borne illnesses. I also got other questions wrong for doing the same thing... crossing out the right answer because it introduces something new. Maybe that's where I'm going wrong?

Someone stick a fork in me, please..

Hi,

Just looking for study buddies, in Winnipeg, MB, however in the CDT time also works or in Canada! I’m planning on taking the August LSAT

Hey everyone, @KevinLin7Sage did an internal presentation for 7Sage Tutors on the difference between CC v1 and v2. I thought it was such a good presentation that I wanted to share it with everyone. So, if you've wondered what the differences are between CC v1 and v2:

First of all, I'm very thankful this is my problem. It certainly was not a few months ago. I have been getting so close to perfect on LG sections each time I take, but I seem to get nervous and miss an inference every blue moon, leading to scores anywhere from -1/-3. How do I keep calm and make sure I'm not making stupid mistakes for June?

So, I can identify the conclusion and the support for the argument, but I'm having a hard time understanding the relationship between them. For some of the questions I can intuit the answer, even if the connection isn't clear, but for other questions, namely the ones that have a lot of background information, or more than one premise, or has two arguments, for example

city official: ....

police chief: ....

Once I identify the argument, I get stuck trying to make sense of what I'm looking at, and then I fail to understand the answer choices well enough to eliminate the wrong ones or recognize the right one. What usually happens is I get down to two answers, either the right one and the wrong one, or two wrong ones. For the latter, I cross out the right answer thinking it's wrong, and for the former, I choose the wrong answer even though the right one looks right but I don't understand why it's right.

I do go in and look at why I was wrong, and it usually makes sense, but it's like it's not sticking, and it's really frustrating to keep making the same mistake. For very question I get wrong on an LR section, at least one of them is from the assumption family.

I'm using Khan Academy to do drills, and for strengthen/weaken questions, I can't get less than 2 wrong, or even get the all right at the advanced level.

I really want to master this test. I'm aiming for a 165 at least, 170 at most, but I can't defeat these harder questions.

Can someone please help?

Hi I was curious if using indicator words was the best way to identify these or if there was another general way?

Is memorizing the words the only way to achieve this or is there a more general approach that can be taken?

Hey everyone! So I am consistently getting -2 or -3 for LR and LG, but RC is constantly -5 to -8... My scores are usually 165-167, but I know I could be in the 170's (my goal) if I fixed RC. Please give me any and every bit of advice you have. I have a lot of trouble focusing from time to time (think I might have undiagnosed ADHD... runs in my family and I have symptoms, but idk if it's genetic?) and I am usually good at reading but for some reason I keep running out of time and really struggling on the questions. TYIA :)

Hi all! Anyone else also working full-time while studying on the side? Looking for committed study buddies. Generally available post-6PM on weekdays and all day on weekends. Shoot me an email if interested!

I haven't taken the LSAT yet, well, actually I did but way back in 2005. But I'm retaking it in August to go back and finish my law degree.

Here's an acronym I find very effective when studying LR and RC. It's called RCA.

It stands for REVIEW-CORRECT-ABSORB

This process can be done on every LR question and RC passage. First, do the problem. Then watch JY's explanation. Review what JY says, then correct your wrong thinking (or reinforce your correct thinking). And then simply by listening to JY, you absorb the material. I bet you gain at least a 1 point advantage just by listening to JY, who is very good at his job.

It's really easy and effective, but it takes a lot of time. I hope it helps you!!

Study buddy and need help with logic games. Can anyone meet?

Hi,

I was hoping someone can provide me some guidance. I have taken four tests (101,102,103) and the modern 84. I cannot see all four tests in my analytic page. It either shows me 101,102,103 or just 84. Can I see all four at the same time?

Best,

Stiv Mucollari

Hello, I am planning out the rest of the two months left until the June LSAT with the games. My best scoring section is the games which will no longer be on the test in August, therefore, I am hoping to get a decent score so I don't have to retake it without the Game section. I have been trying to take the older tests but with the test coming up I want to plan for at least 2 PT a week and maybe the Newer tests.

I have completed the following: PT 47 to PT 52 , PT 59 to PT 71, PT 78, and PT 20.

I have not touched anything above 80 which I was thinking I start the last month. Is there a good way to plan what PT to take and which to save?

Let me know what you think I should do, what PTs to take, which ones to save for after June, etc. Any help is appreciated!

Hi! I am new here to 7Sage and wanted to ask about the Blind Review option for the drills. I'm not quite sure of the method I am supposed to do besides reviewing my answers before the answer results and would love some guidance on how best to use the Blind Review method for drills. Many thanks :)
