Hello,

My name is Ken Kim. We are a group of Koreans and Korean-Americans planning to take the LSAT either this October or in a couple of years. We have members scoring from 160-175 either on the official test or practice tests. Some of us are committed full-time to the test while some of us are working at a company, law firm, etc. We meet on the following dates at the Gangnam station Exit 9 Wing Study Cafe.

8:00 pm-11:00 pm, Wednesday

2:00 pm-5:00 pm, Sunday

We usually meet and do questions from LR and RC. We match our answers and discuss why each one of us have chosen an answer we chose. The fee for joining the study is free other than paying for the studying cafe fee which is 1,900 KRW per person for each hour (5,700 KRW total).

If you are interested, please send me a message to my inbox. I will direct you further. Thanks!

There are various lists/rating for individual games, but not section as a whole for LG.

Does 7sage (or any other place) has a list of difficult sections for each of RC, LR, LG?

Just did PT-88 and ran out of time in middle of Game-3.

G2 and G3 felt much much harder than any other test I've taken, and this after doing not so easy G1 that took ~11 mins.

I went -1/24 today morning on another PT-39 LG, so not sure if PT-88 is an outlier or not.

Is PT-88-LG a known extremely-hard section? How did those who usually are -0 in LG did on this PT?

Hi! I'm taking my first LSAT in September and therefore also spending these last weeks gearing up for it. If you're also taking the September LSAT and need someone to keep you on track, reply below. I want to make a small accountability group that can keep each other motivated daily and meets up once or twice a week.

Hello 7Sage community,

I'm in the process of gearing up for Oct. LSAT and I wanted to bring to your attention June '22 LSAT LG specifically.

I'll get straight to the point: Did anyone find the LG section unusually hard?

I mean I went through the games in pt.1-92 three times before taking the test but I still answered barely 5 questions in total probably. There could be many reasons why I did so poorly on the section but one thing for sure that I felt while attempting the games was that on 3/4 games, I didn't know how to set up the game- They seemed

nothing like the ones I had tried except for the circular game which I ran out of time on.

If anyone did well on June LG can you share your tips?

It'll be much appreciated! Please help 🙏

While doing problem sets for MSS questions, I pinned questions that I struggled with. But I can't figure out where I can access all of the questions that I pinned. How can I access this?

Hi all,

When I started prepping a month ago, I was scoring quite highly, not far off where I wanted to be. After a month of intense study--reading the PowerScore books, using resources here, and doing the Blind Review method--I'm finding that while I know more about the patterns in LSAT questions, my basic instincts regarding the rightness and wrongness of individual answer choices seem to be dulled. I tend now to overthink my choices--quickly dismissing ones that feel intuitive because they seem too obvious. But, my intuition was all I had when I was taking tests the first few times (and scoring much better), Now I'm in a slump and don't feel the same intuition I had before. Has anyone had this problem? Will it improve with time? I'm shooting for the October LSAT, or November if I need.

Thanks

Hi, I want to make an actual, active study group. The link is the following: https://groupme.com/join_group/88566845/16xEXYG3

Just copy it. You will have to answer a question of your ideal score to join (this is to deter bots/people who just want to advertise). Please only join if you will be active and have time to study together.

Update: I only have a few requests atm. I will accept everyone when there are a good amount of people.

Ahh, ok- so some popcorn takes longer than 3 minutes, I get it now. I think?

I understand in-person study groups may not be recommended by 7sage for different reasons.

In my humble opinion there is nothing like in-person college-like cramming where different people may come together and assist in what others find difficult to comprehend & vice-versa.

I was wondering if there are any in-person study groups near SouthbBay area in a public, quiet place (I.E. a Library's study room). If not, would there be people willing to participate in one?Alternatively a Zoom Group would be good enough. LMK!

I have created a survey to get something concrete going on person or through ZOOM, as I've not been contacted by authors of other discussions. Feel Free to Complete Interested, since I haven't been contacted -I've done a survey for those interested. If so feel free to complete so that there's something concrete going. https://forms.gle/kZLjU8VVny6Nrv4w7

I am currently in the midst of a cold streak with logical reasoning. I understand the steps 7Sage has prescribed and attempt to review them, but every practice set and blind review leaves me feeling frustrated and with no progress whatsoever.

I was wondering if any of you have found a method to take a step back from Logical Reasoning and reevaluating your methods and have seen improvement. No amount of blind review or practice questions seems to be yielding a positive gain in my abilities. Thanks!

Okay, can somebody please explain how B is correct. I understand why it is on some level, and why the others are wrong, partially because what all of the wrong answers have in common is basically that the new calendar doesn’t mess with their schedule, but it still isn’t fully clicking to me why B is 100% objectively correct. After reading through the stimulus many times, I still don’t understand the implications of the days before January 1st mixing up so that the group in AC B will eventually run into problems. I’m just really confused. Thanks a lot in advance.

Hi all,

So when I was little (like 8), I was diagnosed with a learning disability similar to dyslexia. Because of my learning disability, I have always (including in high school and university) had learning accommodations, including extra time on tests.

Because I have never taken the SAT (I'm Canadian) or any other standardised tests accepted by LSAC, I have to provide proof of my learning disability and previous use of accommodations to them. I have documentation from both my university and my high school, which verifies my disability and the use of accommodations on all previous tests (including my diplomas).

I am struggling with getting a qualified professional to fill out the qualified professional form. When I called them and asked who counts as a qualified professional, they said it had to be a doctor who had previously assessed me. Unfortunately, the last person who assessed me seems to be inaccessible. I've done everything I can think of to contact her! I've looked on Linkedin, called my high school because she worked with them, and even called the psychologist association to see if they could contact her on my behalf. Still nothing. I've also tried seeing if another psychologist could reevaluate me, and it seems like I don't have the time or resources to get reevaluated in time.

So what I am wondering is if anyone has been in a similar situation or knows anyone who has and can give me some advice! Do you think they will grant my request even without a qualified professional? Am I misunderstanding who counts as a qualified professional or missing something? Any advice or insight would be great!

If you read this far, thank you! I'm terrified of having to take this test without accommodations because it will be the first I take a test without them in my life :(

Hi everyone,

My name is Keith and I am a Zimbabwean living in Johannesburg South Africa. I am currently an Ethics and English teacher and I am trying to study law in the US. I have been referred here and was told that the resources here and the people here are helpful. I am tight on money but would appreciate any resources people may have for me! Also, does anyone know how to register for the lsat in JHB?

Does anyone know when we are supposed to receive the email for choosing our test date, and if that email will have an option to select our test time as well? I believe the email is supposed to come from ProctorU.

I am also wondering if we will need to download any software before the test date - I assume the email will have more detailed instructions. Thanks, and good luck to all taking the September LSAT!

I graduated college over 20 years ago and never considered law school as a serious option until this past January, and when I researched the nature of the LSAT, well...I almost gave up right then.

But a friend had turned me onto 7sage and after poking around only a tiny bit on Youtube and other sites, I very quickly determined that no one else was offering anything close to what 7sage was. So I never even tried another course because, why bother? J.Y.'s teaching manner and curriculum is inspired--and also encouraging and entertaining along the way, and it made the process of getting back into study habits actually bearable.

At the start, I was pretty sure that a diagnostic score would do more harm than good so I skipped it. My fragile ego didn't need to see such a low number, I knew, but besides that I didn't have the stamina for an hours-long, intense test. Even for studying, I had to start slow, working my way into studying for lengths longer than 30 minutes a day. Like I said, my college days are in a distant prehistoric past.

When I finally took my first PT I got a 157 and I hovered around that score over the few PTs, running out of time to do more than about 4 before the June test.

I went into the June test hoping that I wouldn't bomb it, panic and have a mental shutdown of some kind, or experience proctor interruptions (as others have complained about). Although I have 5 kids, I have been successful at shutting out interruptions my at-home practice drills and tests, and I did NOT want to deal with that during my first attempt at a real test.

I came out feeling pretty good but I was still surprised to see that 165 and I am still on a high about it.

My takeaways: I am not sure that I have very solid tips to pass along. A lot of what helped me came from situational or life experience. It was pretty easy for me to focus during my limited study times, and I studied HARD. Sometimes waking up very early (like before 5am), and putting in long hours during my husband's days off while he had time to attend to the kids. I didn't waste that time since it was limited, and hard-earned for us both.

I would say that in some ways, my years of not-studying were actually a perk. There was the novelty of being a student again, I had a goal to aim for that was tangible and measurable, and with the help of this online community I found here it was attainable. I appreciated what the community had to offer, and then I also didn't let myself get distracted by too much poking around on threads (here or elsewhere).

So that's the main thing: I didn't waste time. I didn't shop around, the 7sage CC is focused so I didn't get lost in the weeds, it was easy to speed through and then go back and re-visit areas of weakness, and the way the site is structured I could build drills that helped me hone in on what still seemed fuzzy to me. I took advantage of a couple of webinars and that was super useful, too. No regrets for any of it!

7sage really worked for me and I am certain I would not have gotten to the end of my LSAT journey so efficiently or so fast without it. Thanks to J.Y. and the whole team!

Hi everyone, I just started studying for the LSAT this week and plan to take the April 2023 LSAT. I was wondering what the best way to study is. Should I just go down the course list and learn every single tab, or is that a waste of my time and is there a more effective way to study? Also, when should I start taking prep tests? Because currently, I feel like I won't be ready to take a full-length prep test for at least like 2 more months. Please share your experience and how you started studying, and when you took your first prep tests.

Got caught between AC-A, D, E. Totally ruling out AC-B - why might those have been incorrect?

why is A correct?

Would a be incorrect if the answer was stated as" scientific experiments can go unchallenged for many years"

I feel like a is only correct because it has the " before they are replicated part"

So I've recently been drilling reading comp trying to get my time down. For now I am at 4:30 to 5:00 each passage. That being said when I see the expected time for some of these passages on 7Sage I see some of them have a 2min setup and I ask myself how is it possible to get through the passage in just 2 minutes?? Moreover, there are some passages that have an expected time to finish the passage and questions at about 6 Minutes and 15 seconds. How is that possible??? What am I missing, how can I get my timing down to the expecting time on 7Sage because truth be told from my perspective currently it just sounds absurd as the amount of time I take between fully answering every question and reading the actual passag itself ranges from 8:30-10:45.

Everyone appears to have a different opinion. This is my first attempt so I don't know if I should save some! 10? All? Thanks!

Hey 7Sagers,

For the August LSAT, general discussion of what sections you had, or how difficult you found a given section, or speculation about which sections were scored or unscored, is prohibited until after 9pm ET, Tuesday, August 16th.

Posts that violate these rules will be taken down and may result in disciplinary action from LSAC. Let’s work together to ensure the test is fair to everyone, and not share information before everyone has taken the test.

Some examples of typical comments:

✅ The following comments are okay 🙆‍♀️

❌ The following comments are over the line 🙅‍♂️

Good luck to everyone taking the August LSAT!

**Please keep all discussions of the August 2022 LSAT here!**(/red)

To people who score well on RC: Do you typically have extra time to go back over anything after completing the fourth passage? Or do you generally finish just within 35 minutes and not really have time to go back? I often hear people say RC is the most time-restricted section so I'm curious how high scorers typically time it.

Hey,

I was just wondering if there was any specific major that you would recommend to non-native English speakers?
