I'm looking for an affordable LSAT tutor I can meet with at least twice a week. We will mainly work on RC and LR. If you are a tutor, feel free to private message me and we will go from there. Thank you!

Is there a limit to how well you can do? I've been at this for over a year and a half now, worked with multiple tutors and put my all into it, but I just can't improve into the 170's. I honestly am just at a loss right now and about to take the March test. I've been missing the same number of questions for the past 6 months despite changing strategies, learning new strategies, etc. I just am feeling very hopeless. My LSAT score will probably be the factor that holds me back from getting into the schools I want. I went to a top 5 school, did extremely well, and have a great resume, but I can't crack the LSAT no matter how hard I try.

I live in Phoenix. Studied full time from August 2020 to May 2021. Took 3 LSATs from January 2021 to August 2021 165-161-158 respectively. Haven't touched LSAT review material since August 2021. Averaged mid 160s in the two months prior to my August LSAT. Looking for a tutor that averages a 172 or above that can help me score in that range by August.

This is my first time studying since August of 2021. I studied full time from August 2020 to April 2021 and part time until August 2021. Took 3 LSATs and had a score regression 165-161-158. At this point I've used most of the LSAT material available. Redoing the questions I worked on the longest time ago. Right now my strategy is to focus on why the wrong answers are wrong instead of searching for the right answer, especially when I think I remember the answer to a question. Any advice on other strategies that would help someone who has exhausted the practice tests and questions?

Hi everyone! I hope you are having an amazing day!!

My name is Britt, and I am a tutor here at 7Sage. I am extremely passionate about mental health and mindfulness. On Thursday, March 17, at 9:00 PM ET, the 7Sage Tutoring Team and I will host a webinar about "Combating Test Anxiety." You can register for the webinar here:

https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_CPFna0UGTxWom4TGT8Orrw

However, I would love to hear some lingering concerns from you all. That is, I would love for you all to comment things you would like me to discuss in the webinar or comment any questions you may have.

I am hoping that this Webinar can shed some light on how capable you all are of defeating this test and provide you all with some tips on anxiety/focus.

Best,

Britt

I am a mid 160s scorer with my best score being a 170. I am trying to consistently enter the 170s but my RC is always the most subject to variation it would seem. I have LR and LG down to almost mastery, but every time I do RC I vary from minus 2 to minus 10 and it is deeply frustrating at times. My question to you is how did you improve the best in RC and how did you obtain more consistent scores? I always feel like I get lost trying to find information in the passage, especially with the time constraint. Good pacing strategies also help.

What is PTA?

Hi all! I noticed that in the Problem Set section, under Logic Games Core Curriculum, some games are labeled as PTA. What does that mean? Thanks!

Please do not reply "interested." If you are interested, add me as a study buddy via 7Sage and/or send a direct message. I am looking only for folks who are already scoring between 166-169 and looking to break into 170+. I am capping this group at 5 people, including myself, to ensure efficient BR. I am looking to BR each Sunday from now until the June exam, so you must be available then (exact time is flexible).

this is definitely a silly question but I'm so confused on how to score myself when I take PT's - I am taking the April 2022 LSAT, so there will be 3 scored sections and 1 unscored section. When I am taking practice tests, do I count my correct answers from ALL 4 sections and then look at the score conversion chart here: https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/how-to-understand-your-lsat-score/?ss_completed_lesson=9449

... or do I just count my correct answers from 3 sections? if that's the case, then what score conversion chart do I look at? how do i know which section is the unscored section? really unsure how to get a sense of how I'm scoring :/

asking anyone that has been a part of a study group for study group advice

couple of questions that immediately come to mind:

  • optimal range of study group members?
  • where should the members be in the study progress
  • basically, if you've been a part of a successful study group: what did you guys do?

    and, if you've been a part of an unsuccessful study group: why was in unsuccessful, what would you have done differently?

    tagging @"Scott Milam" because he reached out regarding study groups

    thank you!

    Hey everyone?!

    I find myself having major issues with grouping games especially open games. Anyone willing to share some advice or care to tell me what resources has helped you the most with grouping games? It’s the main issue that is impacting my LG score.

    Thanks in advance!

    Hi all :)

    I’ve been doing 2-3 PTs a week after finishing all CC, and have somewhat reached a stable mid160s (BR: 168-172ish). My main sources were PT45-70, always took it under exact test conditions (4 sections timed).

    I’ll be taking April 2022 lsat (goal score: 174) so I’ll eventually have to slowly transfer to the newer PTs, but was hoping if I could get some advice on this transition.

    Current situation:

  • RC: My weakest is RC and I’m slowly seeing improvement. I’d be happy to see around -4, which happens occasionally. Shivering at all the horror stories of recent LSAT RC being much harder.
  • LR: -2~3 on good day around -5~6 on not so good ones. Currently really digging into the subtle weaknesses/errors.
  • LG: -1~-2. Foolproofing everyday.
  • Advice I’m hoping for, if any, are:

  • what to expect for each sections (gets harder in what way/easier in what way/time-consuming, etc)
  • if I were to work on improving weaknesses to be prepared for recent PTs, any helpful areas/topics/skills to focus on for each section? Things you guys wished you would’ve done or known before facing them?
  • Thank you, and I just rly hope it’s not as bad as I fear (tears)

    Hi! Want to clarify one of the answer choices from prep 18.

    I usually don't spend too much time on analyzing specific vocabulary, but this one I need to clarify it..!

    For answer choice on q10,

    I still don't get 'completely' on (a) being okay.

    Normally, when 'completely' appears on other types of questions such as flaw, I would regard it as 100% certainty and eliminate answer choices if there's a chance of showing 99% certainty or below.

    In the stimulus, there wasn't any mention whether deterioration happens 'completely'.

    Maybe it stops at some point without being completely deteriorated.

    I get 'probably' means 'almost all' and this doesn't bother me at all, but 'completely',, am I too obsessed with a single word? Or is it a problem of older LSATs?

    Help me!

    Admin note: Edited title. Please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of question"

    Hello! I would really appreciate any strategies to improve at LR. When I do the question types individually I do good on them, but when I do a full LR section I cannot seem to improve. Any strategies, tips, or studying patterns that anyone has to offer, please please tell me.

    I BR and I go over my wrong answers and see where I made the mistakes. But that has not done a whole lot for me.

    Hi All..Quick Q. On the following sentence, using rule 3 (pick one part of the relationship, negate it, then make it the sufficient condition):

    "It's not over until the fat lady sings."

    O>FLS (on this part, do I think of the negating on the "O, over" because I removed the "Not" in the sentence before it?

    /FLS>/O

    I keep getting confused on this because of the definition of Negate, i.e. to deny, to declare not to be true. Thanks so much!

    Hi All!

    I am having some trouble finding this information. I am aiming for a 174, but I can't find much information on how many total questions wrong I can hit to achieve that score in the current format of 1LR 1RC and 1LG. Does anyone know? The 7sage calculator seems a bit wonky.

    Hello :)

    I target to take June 2022 Exam, hoping to get 170+ this time.

    If anyone studying in Seoul (ideally Gangnam or closeby), hope to catch up and study together!

    I am hoping to take timed PT together, and either do BR together or separately. (Study plan is flexible).

    If anyone's interested, please let me know and I will message back!
