Well that’s crazy. What does everyone think?

Hey everybody. I am hoping to apply this upcoming fall. I an worried about something on my application though. I transferred from a community college to a UC. At the community college my GPA was significantly lower than my UC GPA ended up being (something like 3.2 -> 3.8 I think). So this averages my LSAC GPA to something like a 3.5. How much do you guys think this will impact my chances of getting into a good school? Like will better ranked schools see a 3.5 LSAC GPA and not bother looking deeper into it? Thanks in advance!

(PT9 S4- #13)

J: worked 3 years and will vacation 4 weeks this year

Everyone who worked 1-4 years entitled to 3 week vacation

Apply half of unused vacation to next year.

So it makes sense to me that J had two weeks left over from last year so she got half of that this year

(A) J did not use two weeks in which she was entitled to

(C) J only used one week in which she was entitled to

What is the difference between the two and how can I distinguish them?

Hi there!

My name is Jaganath, and I've been studying off and on with 7sage for four years. I am a non-traditional student: I'm 34.

I have 71% of the core material finished (on the 3rd problem set for In/Out games), and I would like to habituate better study rituals and have someone(s) to discuss things with regularly. I have booked a free consultation with 7Sage for Tutoring on Saturday, and I foresee myself utilizing a tutor up until I sit for the exam.

My main goal is to create a support system of 7Sagers who are committed to following through with the exam and getting into Law School.

I selected choice A, but the right answer is B. Can someone go over the answers and clarify please?

Respectfully, my undergraduate GPA is nothing to flaunt. I had a life, issues etc. Going to law school was not on my mind at the time. Therefore, what are my best options for getting into law school? What do you recommend?

What have you found to be the best way to improve your score quickly and efficiently?

I am taking four months off from work to study the LSAT full time (35-40hrs a week). With this amount of study time what is the best way to attack the practice tests? Should I burn 1 PT a day, 3 PT's a week or 1 PT a week?

Thanks for any advice.

Hey! Another 7Sager and I are starting an in-person study group that would meet in Berkeley, CA (on campus or elsewhere) to keep each other accountable, discuss strategies and problems, and such. Hoping to take the LSAT in August! Join us if you're motivated or need motivation :)

I have been studying for the LSAT for a while now but have only taken 3 PTs so far. Is it normal for scores to fluctuate? I am planning to take the LSAT in August 2022, and I think I am going to start taking PTs three times/wk. My goal is to get a 165+!

I get the questions correct under timed conditions, however, when I do blind review I change my answers from correct to incorrect.

Hey everyone!

Due to popular demand, I'm excited to announce that I'll be teaching a 10-week LSAT course starting June 1st!

We'll meet once a week for an hour. In addition to the instruction given during class time, I'll also assign homework, drills, and a study plan designed to support the weekly lessons and solidify key concepts. This class is ideal for anyone who wants a bit more structure and accountability as they work their way to their goal score.

The classes will convene every Wednesday via Zoom from 7pm-8pm EST. The first class will be held on June 1st, and will continue weekly until August 3rd. The class is limited to TWELVE students—first come, first served.

To sign up, visit this link: https://classic.7sage.com/lsat-live-class/

If you have any questions about the course, feel free to post it down below. I'm looking forward to it!

I am a freshmen in college who is on summer break. I plan on using 7 sage, the lsat trainer for RC, power core lsat logic games, and loophole for LR. I took the practice lsat through blueprint in April and scored a 130 lsat score. My goal is 171. What is some advice to make my goal be a reality. In addition I will be working full time towards the end of the summer.

Did 7sage delete the LSAT approved tutors?

Quick question -

I've just finished the grouping games intro videos on the CC. After watching JY walk through the solutions, I'm wondering, do we always just notate the necessary conditions on the gameboards?

For example, game 4 on PT26 (the lawmakers and scientists with one chairperson) has two not both rules. G -> /V and H -> /Y. Instead of notating G or H in, JY notates /V or /Y in, making the rules irrelevant since the necessary is satisified and the sufficient condition falls away.

In the game with the two boats with three adults and five children, there is a F -> G rule, and the contrapositive is /G -> /F. Instead of notating F or /G, JY instead notates G into the diagram. Once again, the necessary is satisfied and the sufficient condition falls away.

Is this what I'm supposed to be doing in my gameboard setup? Because if so, this might cut down some time while I'm doing games and even get my head straight when I'm doing the games.

If anyone has any advice on this, please let me know. I'm struggling most with just the gameboard set up (for most games) - as soon as I accomplish that, the questions are ridiculously easy.

I am currently unable to see the analytics by section on the analytics landing page. What used to show the numbers of questions I got wrong is now only showing "-". I was wondering if anyone else is experiencing this?

Hello all, I am new to 7Sage, not entirely new to the LSAT, took it for the first time last January and scored a 158 after studying for 3 months on my own with Khan and some popular books.

Ive heard amazing things about 7Sage but I am just not sure if its right for me.

Im extremely frustrated and confused by the core curriculum layout. It has you learn a type of question drill it like 50 times and then moves on to the same thing with a new type of question. Well by the time ive completed the drills, I try to go back to complete some questions of the previous type and I cant seem to remember the strategies and or I mix it with the one I just completed.

I feel like im spinning my tires here. Is this normal for the beginning of the CC? Do I just trust the process?

In my other study material it strongly advised against practicing one type of question over and over in an attempt to master it as it would take away from the ability to tackle different types of Q's back to back, Im worried I am experiencing this.

I am no expert on the LSAT or studying for it, but I see the success 7Sage has afforded others and Im frustrated because I just dont see any progress.

Is this normal? When will I start to feel like im actually progressing?

I've completed Logic Game PT 1 - 52. Would you recommend I continue to do more recent PTs or redo the one I've already completed? I miss about 7-8 questions for a complete set (4 games) with timing (30 mins). When doing a blind review, I still miss 2-3 questions.

I'm preparing for the 2022 June LSAT. Any advice would be appreciated!

I submitted my paperwork for accommodations on April 7th (for the June test). This whole time it has been "under review" on LSAC and I looked today and there was nothing indicating that I had submitted paperwork. Ugh...I'm super frustrated. I emailed LSAC so I hope they get back to me soon. I never got an email indicating the I had submitted paperwork for accommodations. It just kept saying that they were under review so I assumed they received them. Has this happened to anyone before?

Like a lot of people, I had multiple connection issues while testing yesterday. They all happened during the same RC section so I had to re-read each time and then I also lost 4 minutes because of my proctor's mistake. I had two RC sections in my exam so there's a 50% chance that the one I had issues on doesn't count. I feel good about the rest of it and now I don't know whether I should retake it in May or take the gamble and use my first-time preview score on yesterday's exam.

I would be really grateful for any thoughts/advice!

We will continue to use RingCentral, though I am still not really sure what the deal is with its apparently-absent waiting room functionality. So I'll probably just put the link up ~15 minutes early and let people filter in. Feel free to chat amongst yourselves in the meantime! Face cameras are gently encouraged - it's a lot easier to have a conversation that way.

=============

Hi everyone! I decided it would be cool to run some office hours and help some folks out. I've done a few of these in the past and it's always been fun to talk shop with people. Think of it as a drop in/drop out study group, open to all.

Limiting this to 7Sage for now because it's easier to get things done if everyone has a common basis in terms of vocabulary, how you learn the theory, etc. and after a decade of using 7Sage I know the curriculum like the back of my hand.

Who Am I/Why Should You Listen To Me?

I scored 175 on the September 2006 LSAT (-4 RC, -2 LR, -0 LG), graduated from Columbia Law School in 2010, spent a year on fellowship with a judge in Bronx Supreme Court Criminal Division while teaching LSAT on the side, and have been teaching the LSAT full time since September 2011. I worked with JY on PreProBono and in the early years of 7Sage, was a 7Sage "Approved Tutor" for the entire life of that categorization, and am the only person other than JY himself who has ever had an instructional video published on 7Sage's live site. I am also the lead LSAT tutor and department chair of a local NYC-based test prep boutique. Some of my writing still resides in the "Sage Advice" section of this forum, so go check it out if you're interested .

Over the past decade-plus, I have amassed over 8,000 hours of combined classroom-based and one-on-one LSAT teaching experience, working with a diverse set of students from across the USA and all around the world - Canada, Brazil, Netherlands, England, France, Qatar, Korea, and China just to name a few. The best score increase I've ever achieved with a student is +36 (136 -> 172).

If you listen to the 7Sage Podcast, you may have heard my name mentioned in episode #67 - Vanessa (138 -> 169) was my student.

How Can I Join?

I'll put up a video chat link above when the time comes, and take it down when we're done.

When Will These Be Happening?

I currently intend for this to be a weekly thing, but the timing will vary depending on the other moving pieces of my schedule. It's not likely that every time will work for everyone, but I will at least attempt to switch it up so that anyone interested can make it at least some of the time. I currently live in New York, but I am a born and raised Californian so I understand the tyranny of Eastern Time very well, so don't worry West Coasters - I'm thinking of you guys too.

What Can I Ask?

Anything is fair game for now - general theory questions, questions about individual questions, macro questions about how to study/trajectory, questions about what hair products I use, etc. Feel free to DM me questions in advance as well. I can't promise I will get to all of them (don't take it personally!), but I will certainly do my best.

I am currently unsure how to handle the whole 'spoilers' issue (for example, a student has a question on PT60 S1 Q1, which another person hasn't gotten to yet), but I think that shouldn't stop me from just getting started. We might just have to tell some folks to deafen themselves temporarily if they don't want to get spoiled for now. In the future I may limit discussion in a specific session to a specific range of PrepTests or curriculum-only, or choose a specific topic to address in depth, or whatever else comes to mind to avoid this issue, but I still have to feel that out organically. Suggestions welcome.

Will This Be Recorded/Uploaded Somewhere?

No plans for recording at this time.

What Will This Cost Me?

Nothing but your time. Happy to help.

What If I Have Another Question?

Fire away! In this thread or in DM.

For those who have fool proofed, did you fool proof games that you completed in under the target time on the first try? So far I've still been doing each game 4 times (following the Pacifico method) regardless of if I completed it in under the target time on the first try, but I'm not sure if it's necessary.
