Hi everyone,

What is the best way to diagram spatial (circular) sequencing games? And am I likely to see one on test day? I tried to diagram a circular sequencing game close to the beginning of my prep (I think it was the June 1991 PT) and literally drew a circle for each board, which took way too long and felt way too artsy (lol), and I don’t think I should have done it that way, since the only thing that the circle was conveying was that certain game pieces were across from each other.

Thanks in advance for any help.

For the time scheduling of the lsat that is done through Proctor U, does anyone know if we need to create an account with Proctor U before scheduling or do we wait for the email to come in with instructions? I tried to create an account but I didn't know what institution to put.

Is anyone else having this issue? I can create a drill or choose a preptest but then no test or drill appears

Hey all!

I am currently looking for study buddies that are in a similar life stage as I am. I was interested to see if any parents or older individuals out there are interested in studying together or working through certain questions together. I know my study schedule is 4-7:30 am, mid day (random times while my son is napping), after 8:30 PM (if I have energy) and weekends.

Just looking for someone that understands the parental struggles but still would want to be able to study/discuss the test with someone.

Hi everyone,

Whenever I complete a sequencing games drill, my set-up time is always way too long…I don’t know how to speed this process up because I usually make all of the relevant boards and inferences during my set-up time. As a result, I always finish the questions quickly and under time. My time is usually collectively less than the target time, but my set-up time is always over the target set-up time.

Is this sustainable in the long run, or should I focus on taking my set-up time down? If I need to speed up on set-up, how should I work on doing so?

Thank you for any help.

So, I've been foolproofing LG and this is my process.

Most times (like 90%) I only have to foolproof once after BR. I make sure I know the game inside and out during BR which is why I mostly don't have to foolproof again.

Is this okay? or do people usually foolproof a couple of times even though they keep getting the question correct?

Tell me what you did.

For disagreement questions, are the disagreement tends to be the conclusion or premise? Or it could be both?

Hey everyone! I was hoping to form a small group of 175+ scorers to have weekly zoom study sessions leading up to the September test. Please message me if interested!

Best advice for LR diagramming? I still find it a bit difficult to do to get the right answer.

Finding a claim to be false on the grounds that it would if true have consequences that are false. If not, then why?

Hello,

Can somebody link me the section in the syllabus for the strategies when taking a "double" reading comprehension section? I'm pretty good at all RC except for those questions that have to do with two passages

Hey fellow Sagers,

I was wondering did anyone hear start out with a 135 or something or something along those lines when they started their prep with 7sage? If yes what is your score now and how did you do it? Thanks! I really need all the motivation that I can get. I plan on taking December and I'm aiming for at least 155

Hi, I am a Canadian LSAT taker and have taken 2 times before, (159, 162). I want an increase in my score and want to try again before I apply for Canadian Schools (UVIC, U Ottawa, etc.) I am debating between September and October LSATS because I want to apply but do not want a very late admission, but I do want as much time for the best success.

Any advice?

This happens to me the majority of the time I end up getting an answer wrong. Most of the time ( and I feel stupid for saying this) the right answer choice looks too easy and I feel like I'm being suckered into choosing that answer - 90% of the time that "easy" answer choice ends up being right. Any tips to overcome this?

Hi everyone!

Was curious to know if anyone has tried the fool proofing method for LR/RC and their results. If people have tried it, have you see a significant improvement in your LR/RC score?

Episode #81 is here!

Taking the Jan 2023 LSAT, and in the process of registering for the exam. Has anyone gotten accommodations with getting a paper copy of the exam? If so, how do you go about getting such accommodation? Thanks!

Hello fellow 7Sagers! I figured we were all in this LSAT Journey together, so I decided to create this discussion thread for this particular question/type. I did get the answer correct, so in this thread I will be going through my thought process; I am open to advice.

Answer Choice A - Incorrect. Why? It is irrelevant to the naturalists' claim.

Answer Choice B - Incorrect. Why? Optimum means "best." Therefore, since the claim is about the survival and adaptability of mice, how is it supporting the naturalists' claim?

*Answer Choice C - Incorrect. Why? Though the fossil remains do in fact prove that mice are able to survive and adapt, the mention of harsh and unbearable weather for human conditions is mentioned in the conclusion/claim, thus making the answer choice incorrect and irrelevant. (Someone discuss this with me please! I almost got tripped up with this one. How can I avoid that?).

Answer Choice D - Correct. Why? Shows that mice are able to adapt and survive in harsh climates by providing an example that is deadly for human life (i.e., Antarctica).

Answer Choice E - Incorrect. Why? It is irrelevant to the claim.

This question was more on the easier side, but - for right now - these are the question types I need to focus on. If you have any tips for strengthening questions, once again, I am open to advice!

Hi everyone, I have a weird question. But I’m sure all of us had taken many prep tests to help us prepare for the actual test. But I’m wondering if all these prep tests would “repeat” on the actual test meaning; the same question and answers. Or do they provide a separate and different test?

Is it alright to give examples that are not stated in the prompt to support your ideas? I completed writing PT 82 about the filmmaker, and I found myself talking a little bit about creativity and potential advertising opportunities instead of focusing solely on the furnishings of the locations.

IDK the process/forum etiquette for feature requests, so apologies if this is not the right venue/classification.

Working on getting my time down for boards, would love a way to pick problems based on how overtime I was. I tend to mismanage time and get correct answers after spending too much time on them. This is something to fix more generally, but would still like to be able to practice to address this skill.

RN I have a workaround by looking at my question table analytics and manually selecting problems, but it would be nice to have it as a feature!

Hello all,

As I have been fool-proofing diligently and getting through all the games from PT 1-40 multiple times, I often finish the games a lot earlier than 35 minutes. It does vary depending on the PTs, but I usually have somewhere between 12 to 5 mins left.

Is there any suggestion on what I should do during the remaining time? During drills or PTs, I get lazy and just don’t even review. I often go -0, but I also make 1 or 2 stupid mistakes that I wish I caught earlier. But i realized that even when I do review some questions, I can’t get too ALL the questions that I do sometimes have about 1 wrong too.

It really frustrates me when I catch myself making a stupid mistake, and I really want to get a perfect score on LG.

Thanks in advance!

Is there a way to see how long it takes for me to finish an entire game set instead of per question? This would be helpful for LG and RC!

Lawhub has 2 free PTs (71 and 73) and khanacademy.com has ~6 free computer-based LSAT tests.

But the layout of LR/LG/RC sections in Lawhub is very different than khanacademy PT, e.g. the font, eliminate AC etc.

Which layout is the actual/real LSAT administration would appear on the computer?

Is the real one "exactly" the same as Lawhub?
