Why is the correct answer B?

I usually simulate pts the same way I would take he real LSAT but sometimes it is hard to find time to spend the time to take a full test. Is it beneficial to break it down into sections or is not worth the time?

Hi guys,

I am in a bit of a pickle. For whatever reason, I cannot study LSAT anymore. I can't focus, and I feel like studying is torture.

I took a week break (by break I mean that I was studying a lot less, I think I studied 2/7 days for 2 hours a day). I still am having an incredibly hard time.

Prior to this, and probably the reason for my burnout, I was studying 3-5 hours a day after working. I would also have my LSAT Prep class twice a week, and once a week I would take an exam. I did this for 2.5 months straight with a few days of rest here and there.

Do you guys have any tips for how I can get my motivation back? Or any words of reassurance? I am trying my hardest, but I cannot be productive anymore. It is really worrying me, as I feel behind. My first LSAT is in August, and I want to take another one in December.

Thank you so much in advance!

Hello,

I'm relatively early on in my LSAT studies and I was wondering which 'Time Adjustment' should I be using?

I noticed with previous sections its given me "standard time" but recently with certain problem sets (ex. in the later MSS Problem Sets) the timing switched to infinite?

It seems weird to have the BR right after if we are getting unlimited time on the questions, is this a oversight? or should I set the timing myself to Target time/Standard time?

What's recommended by 7sage? #help or what have you all been using?

Best,

Leissosa

I'm looking to form a small discussion group to compare notes on strategies and procedures.

This is not a study group for going over BRs, reviewing fundamental skills, or keeping each other accountable. All those resources are widely available, rather I'd like to discuss the small marginal improvements in efficiency which will give us the edge needed to consistently break 170.

We'll do weekly discussions over Discord.

(Day and time TBD)

I am currently going through the logic game drills from preptests 1-35. My process is to do the logic game (ex. logic game 1 from preptest 1) first under timed conditions, blind review and watch the explanation, and then repeat the game consecutively 10 times under timed conditions. Is this correct?

I was also wondering how much improvement in the logic games score you can get from foolproofing preptests 1-35

Based on prior test date discussion boards it looks as though those scheduling emails typically go out ~2.5 weeks in advance, but curious if anyone has anything more concrete than that to share. I would love to have my time slot figured as I do have some potential conflicts on the 12th/13th... it stresses me out a little bit to have little information about when to expect the email and I'm paranoid I'll miss it/only notice it once all the most "desirable" time slots are gobbled up.

I don't even know if that's how it works.

I don't have trouble with generating possible numerical distributions for In/Out or Grouping games, but for some reason I struggle to be able to quickly write out all the possible distributions for linear sequencing games with repeating variables (i.e. June 2007 Game 3). Is there a quick and easy trick to doing this? I find it involves a lot of overthinking and is a slow process for me.

I've gotten good at getting -0 or -1 in LG unless I run into one of the really old misc games. Does anyone think it is worth my time to review them? Every time I go to watch an explanation video, J.Y. says something along the lines of "I don't think you'll see this on a modern LSAT," which is really discouraging me from putting in more work to get them down. Thoughts? Is anyone else running into this issue?

Sorry I missed when this term was first used, and now I’m hearing it again and again, and I don’t know what it means. #help #thankyou

If you do have to miss this session, we will be recording the conversation for our podcast!

Where can I find how difficult a LG full-section for a given PT and not just how difficult a given Game is?

For example, say I did a PT number X's LG section. where can I find it's difficulty comparison with PT-Y's LG section?

Looking for something other than adding difficulty of individual games of pt X to compare with PT Y.

Hey y'all!

On Wednesday, July 27th, at 9:00 PM ET, we'll be hosting a webinar about "Building Better Boards: Tips for LG."

We're going to focus on the most basic element of LG - board construction. We'll cover the purpose of a board, rules behind splitting your board, and some best practices to avoid unforced errors. We'll have information for beginners and advanced students alike, so we hope you join us!

Does anyone have experience (either themselves or know of someone else) who has applied to law school during their third year of undergrad? How did it go?

Hi, I am struggling with games because I am not yet quickly able to make inferences to decipher the possible set ups. It seems this is the key to easily going through the questions, so I was wondering if there are any drills anywhere to practice this skill?

Hi all! I'm writing my first LSAT in August, and I was wondering when I should be expecting the email to sign up for Proctor U and schedule my exam time? I couldn't find any answers on the LSAC website, so I'm reaching out to you lovely people!

Hi there! Im looking to see if there is any interest from people for a little group that are planning to take the 2023 summer LSATs?!

Hi!I am looking for people to hold weekly study sessions with and an accountability group chat/ buddy system. I am available mostly on weekday mornings and afternoons. Let me know if you're interested and I will send an invite :)

How much can I realistically improve by then? I’m aiming for high 150s to low 160s.. LG was my best section. I struggled with LR and RC

For some reason only some of my videos give me the option to change video playback speed - is anyone else noticing this?

Sometimes for an easier question video I'll watch it at a faster speed and when I go to the next question I want to slow the video down but it's stuck in the faster speed that I changed it to on the last video. And I've noticed only sometimes the playback speed adjuster function shows up and sometimes does not. Is there a pattern to this or something, like are there maybe certain types of videos that don't have that function that I'm not catching on? I'm having that problem right now and I've tried refreshing the page and no matter however much I try to hover on different parts of the video it's not showing. Not urgent problem but can get annoying.

Hi everyone,

I am an international student going into my junior year and I am hoping to go directly to law school after college. In October, I am starting a year-long law program at the faculty of law at Oxford. I hear that the program is very intensive and I am bit worried about how realistic it would be for me to do LSAT prep while there. I am very hard working and driven which has also made more prone to burn out just because I always try to do too much and overthink everything (as you will see from this post). I am afraid the same would happen for my LSAT and Oxford program so I am seeking advice on how to go about it.

I did a diagnostic test and I got 139 and my goal is in the range of 167-172 (I need about 30 points increase which is a lot I know). I am really bad at standardized tests but I know I can improve with practice. I also like the learning that comes with LSAT so I am motivated in that way. I am willing to take as much time and effort as possible to reach my target score even if that means taking time off after college. But I also can't help but want to go directly to law school.

I have been working at a T14 law school and a top law firm this summer which has been a great experience. The general advice I would often hear with the legal professionals and my colleagues is that we highly recommend taking time off after college but they would tell me that they don't think I need that. They would say I am already mature enough and have the experiences of a professional. I am a couple of years older than the typical college student. This is not to brag but to give a perspective, I also founded my NGO at age 16, managed grants projects with +100k dollars budget, and I have lived and worked internationally. At my college, I have loved the academics and studying but it has been harder to connect with the rest of the student body because it feels that we are at different stages of our lives. Even my professors would say that I am like a grad student to them and I have built great relationships with them.

Now all that to say is I am impatient about law school and becoming a lawyer and I think I am ready for it. But I am also very insecure about my LSAT and ability to improve within that time frame I have left (a year) given my intensive academic program. What are your thoughts? Am I being irrational and paranoid? Do you think my LSAT target score is realistic within that timeframe? Also, should I just let go of studying for LSAT at Oxford and instead focus on my program there and plan to apply to law school in the 2024 or 2025 cycle?

I have noticed these forums have been very helpful others so wanted to give it a try and be as transparent and vulnerable about my worries as possible.

Thank you everyone!

Hello,

I am having troubles with my lsat score not improving. However it is also not declining either which is good (I hope)

Looking for some advice from anyone who has overcome this problem. I plan on applying for law school this fall and would really like to overcome this ASAP.

I need help, I suck big time in LR and I’m terrified, my test is in September! What should I do, I quit my two jobs and still can’t feel, I’m able to grasp this LR section. Never felt this way toward an exam before.

What I put; A irrelevance to argument.

Wrong bc.

The conclusion itself is that selfishness is true of all time periods. This is the argument, it is not irrelevant to the argument. It is just argued poorly.

The correct anser is E.

The argument uses selfishness in two ways.

At first, characterizes selfishness as individualism.

Them, says that acts on behalf of the human species are selfish.

Acting on behalf of the human species may be selfish, but it is not individualistic.

The argument that all periods, not just the 80s, can be characterized by selfish individualism, is not advanced by saying acts on behaf of humankind r selfish
