Hi, I am confused as to why the correct answer is C? I felt C was a different argument since the final conclusion was " wise investors will conclude that the expansion will continue for some time"

Hello everyone!

My name is Ken. My friends and I host an LSAT study meeting at Gangnam every Sunday. We do not charge to attend this meeting but ask that each participant only pays for his or her usage of the meeting room at the study cafe. If anyone else wants to join, please read the conditions below and send me a message to my inbox! (:

Thanks!

I work full time and have been studying since spring of this year. Since I work, my pace is much slower than ideal (10-15 hours per week).

I need a pretty solid LSAT score since my GPA was like a 3.5 so I keep pushing my test date back. I may apply this year but keep thinking about pushing to next year to give myself better room to study. I am signed up for November but will see how I progress in the next few weeks of studying.

However, I get nervous thinking about waiting a year if large changes by LSAC are coming to logical games. Worried about the sunk cost of studying for something that may get taken off.

Are there any updates on when LSAC is planning on the change? What is the general consensus?

Thank you

We currently have two in total. Message me if interested!

7Sagers,

"Building Boards" with Raphael Piliero is cancelled this evening due to extenuating circumstances. Sorry for the inconvenience. Raphael's class will resume at its normal time next week.

Best,

I know it all depends / repetition etc but im generally wondering- when I drill reading what difficulty should I do at? does anyone know what avg difficulty is on tests like one level two one level three etc for reading?

Like if I drill one 3 dot law passage, 4 dot science, 2 dot humanities, then mix it up another time, etc?

Help! I always get these wrong and they seem so simple. I don't understand what I'm missing. Any advice?

Hi, I am so grateful and happy to have gotten a 172 on sept test, 7sage I owe u my life. That being said, I am still be encouraged by people to take the October test bc I am already signed up, but I am not sure if I will do better than a 172. My august LSAT was a 161, so I am worried if I get like around a 168 or something (my pt average is a 169) than my 172 will look more like a fluke to schools, especially to t14s. I know some say that they only look at the highest score but is there no way the other scores could be a factor?

My highest ever pt score is a 175 but other than that I am consistently scoring between 171-168, mostly getting 170s.

I really would appreciate people's thoughts, thank you for your time!

Hi guys,

Has anyone listened to the latest episode of the 7Sage podcast published on October 10th titled "Building Better Boards - Tips for Logic Games"? If there's someone here that has listened to it and knows from what PrepTest the grouping game discussed is please let me know.

Thank you :)

Hi two questions regarding my GPA for my applications, all help is greatly appreciated thank you!

First - should I put my GPA on my resume? and if so, should I put the LSAC CAS one or my academic GPA, or both with labels?

My LSAC CAS gpa is 0.03 higher than my academic one from my undergraduate school, so not much of a difference, but for some schools the LSAC one is above median and the academic one is below the median.

Secondly - in the the academic section of some schools application it asks for GPA, so for this, which one should I put or should I put both with labels?

Hello,

I'm wondering where the best place is to discuss a Senior Thesis on a résumé. I am planning to place this in my education section, but I'm struggling with how much detail to include in the description or if I should place it in a different section altogether.

Obviously, no admission committee is going to take the time to read such a long piece of text, but can anyone offer advice on how to highlight the work done in academic research? Thank you!

I have trouble remembering the steps in the logic games, especially when there are two layers example runners/ charities or grouping in multiple rooms

After mastering and fool proofing the LG curriculum should I do the same for PT 1-20 or 1-35? I have heard both approaches are good to get to -1/-0.

I'm applying to UofT law and am struggling with the optional essay.

They recommend speaking about one of four suggested topics, but I'm struggling with selecting the one that fits best, as I already speak to my future ambitions in my personal statement.

One of the options is diversity. I'm of Lebanese origin and grew up in Dubai. Is there any way this would be an acceptable ground for diversity, or is it best to go with another topic?

Hey Monthly + Live 7Sagers!

Fill in the Gap Live class by Shawn Ali is happening in less than 10 minutes. You can join in using this link: https://classic.7sage.com/event/filling-the-gap-shawn-ali-3/

I have been studying on and off for 2 years. This the first time I been consistent with studying. I have basically finished the 7sage curriculum. I have started taking practice exams every Saturday. My actual score is low but my blind review’s are 10+ points higher. I been thinking about moving it up to 2 practice exams a week. But, I am not scoring consistently where I want and I don’t want to burn through my testing material. Some days I am getting questions right in the 170s and some days I kiss questions in the low 150s. I think I been studying too long my brain is full of material. I am scheduled to take the November and January LSAT. I plan to apply this application cycle and don’t want to push off applying another year. What should I do?

Heed my story as a brief word of caution that could save you some frustration in the future.

When you begin the LSAT writing section, do yourself a favor and flick over to the ProctorU Owl tab that manages your recording and ensure the microphone it's using is set to the correct device. You can do this before opening the reading prompt itself during the pre-check when you hold up an I.D. and take a photo of yourself. The writing sample is self-proctored and does not give you a prompt to check your audio settings. The most it does is flick over to that tab I mentioned to ask what window you want to share (in Chrome, not sure how it looks in Mozilla), but once you hit OK it goes back to the test. Unless you know what you're doing, you'll miss the chance to tweak audio settings.

Storytime:

I have a handful of mics I use for different tasks (Zoom meetings vs. casual PC game nights with pals vs. speaking without a headset on) and sometimes software searching for a mic to record on my computer can become confused by the volume of options. I made the error during my LSAT writing sample of assuming because they were using my webcam to record video, then it would also be recording audio (JY if you read this, don't publicly shame my logical mistake). As you may well know, the writing section is self-proctored, there isn't another human there to say "I can't hear you." So, I went on my merry way, silently crafting a response to the prompt.

I just got an email today asking me to re-take the writing section because my submission did not have any audio due to their software choosing to record an incorrect audio input - in fact, what their software decided to record wasn't even a mic at all. It was a piece of software I use to filter my mic audio output.

If I had been shown the audio input screen more clearly, more deliberately, I would have caught this error immediately and prevented myself from having to take the section twice. When I retook the section today, I found the ProctorU device management screen and manually changed it to my webcam for both video and audio recording. I'm praying this works, otherwise I will be a unhappy camper.

I'm just wondering if PTs 90-92+ are indicative of the current test patterns in LR, RC, and LG? Or is it still the 80s?

Been getting flaw questions wrong repeatedly, any advice?

Hey y'all.

I just took the October LSAT and was wondering whether I should do any form of preparation for the writing sample. I hadn't really thought about it until now. Thanks!

I've been studying LG for about a month now and seemingly always get -1!! I have been perfect on a couple tests but in the last 2 days I have taken 6 LG sections and got -1 on all of them. It's never on the hardest game either. Is this just a focus thing, or maybe going too fast on the easy games? Anyone consistently scoring -0 who also had this problem?

My performance depends HIGHLY on my focus level. When I'm in the zone, I do so much better than when I do not. Sometimes when I study constantly, everyday, I lose focus and even though I try to sit down and study, I simply cannot. I even take so much longer reading and understanding the stimulus. Then I start doubting that studying when I'm not 100% focused is just waste of time (and waste of PTs too). I'm so worried because I can't control how to bring myself to "get in the zone." And it gets worse when I start getting so many questions wrong– I lose motivation. Even when I'm taking a rest, I feel like I should be studying, so I force myself to solve questions, get everything wrong, depressed, then it's a cycle. Sometimes I decide to refresh, study tomorrow, but when tomorrow comes, I can't. I feel so dumb right now. What should I do ??

ATTN:

I am planning to apply to a T140-150 tier Law school and even with a high LSAT score of like 160, would that be enough for me to enter there? Thanks.
