I am just starting my lessons with Logic Games and I want to know the best method of attack. I know LG allows a lot of room for improvement so I know I can tackle these questions with the right approach.

I have been taking the problem sets untimed because I do not feel like I am capable of doing timed sections yet. Most of the time, I get a majority of the answers right but at double the allotted time. I intend to "foolproof" the games from the problem sets before moving on in my LG studies.

What I don't know is when I should start taking the problem sets under time constraints. I definitely struggle with making inferences. What is the best way to strengthen my inferencing skills? Just practice?

Any other recommendations?

I really really don’t want to because I’ve taken the lsat four times already. I went from a 153 to a 161 but I got waitlisted at my top choice and a safety and I’m starting to really worry about all my other apps? I know I can improve at least 3-4 points for sure but is it worth it?

Title says it all lol. I sit tomorrow and had a nightmare about logic games last night, and the night before dreamt I ran out of time.

Ironically, logic games is my best section and I’m not nearly as nervous as I have been in past LSAT administrations, but could seriously do without these pesky nightmares on LSAT eve. 😇

With the January test coming up this weekend I just wanted to throw something out there to give us hope. I was giving up hope but my brother and partner told me something that I'd like to share with you guys. "as long as you keep your mind in the right place you can do this, you have come too far to give up now, manifest that shit and it will happen!" Lets manifest this shit, the LSAT is hard as hell but we got this! Never give up, don't lose hope. I saw this on quote on Instagram a few days ago, "you don't need to get into EVERY law school to become a lawyer. All it takes is ONE."

We got this guys!!

Alright, 7Sage Fam.

A little backstory: I cannot wrap my head around the logic of reasoning or grouping games. I've been at it for two years now, and I've tried anything and everything to improve my score WHICH JUST WONT BUDGE. And its okay. I've told myself, its not about giving up because this test is going to dictate the future but about accepting who it is I am, where it is I am at in life, and where it is I will go. CUE ANXIETY

YES. I AM LOSING MY MIND. But i've always been losing it, and I think its fine to be a little crazy. That's what makes you unique. Remember that you are more than a three digit number that sits between 120 and 180. To those that are in the 140s and 150s, keep at it. Not to say your score will go up or down, but this is to say you should keep in mind the several components that are on the law school application. Make yourself stand out. As a student with a bachelors and two masters degrees, applying to law school with working experience makes me feel I am more than a number. Remind yourself of this every morning that you are just the same. A number does not define you but your experience, your background , your will to succeed in being a lawyer for the community around you does.

This is for those that feel they are losing hope. My message to you is simple: DONT LOSE HOPE. As a die hard Lakers fan, I always ask myself, what would Kobe do? If I can keep at this stupid ass test, and still fight for my right to be admitted during my first law school admissions cycle this year, then so can you. Keep pushing. Life is beautiful and it has more in store for you than you (and I) could ever imagine.

For those of you scoring your desired goals, congratulations! Y'all make me proud. I am happy for you. Hopefully one day, when all of us former 7Sagers are meeting in a courtroom, we can talk about the discussion threads we met and rallied each other on. You are all a part of my inspiration to keep pushing and striving, but staying unique to me. I respect your ability to nail this test, its hard as fuck.

Good luck to the rest of you that are taking the test this coming weekend. Grind it out through Thursday, go get some ice cream Friday, and on Saturday, bring your A Game. As King Leonidus (played by Gerard Butler) says in '300', "Remember this day forever, for it will belong to YOU for all time." And it will. You will make it to break the game. Lets fucking do this shit.

Hello 7sage family,

I am curious to know if anyone has information on how masters degrees are evaluated in terms of applying to law schools? Being a student who graduated with a bachelors gpa of 3.5 and two masters degrees with 4.0s, one of which is a masters in legal studies from usc, do masters degrees give an upper hand (in any way) to a student applying in the law school admissions cycle? If yes, how much would it be? If no, what are the reasons for them to not be counted?

I could really use some clarity on Game 2 from PT 91. For some reason I was completely drawing a blank and as a result I missed 5 of 6. Has anyone ran in to the same issue? If so, how did you setup your game board and/or solve the questions?

Hey guys,

I have recently been waitlisted at a few schools and I was wondering when is the best time to submit an LOCI? I have read on here that they recommend sending short and sweet ones every month up until right before the deposit deadline, and once there, to submit one that is more substantial. Is this something that is still recommended or should I submit a more substantial one sooner? Thank you! Good luck to everyone this cycle.

I'm the sort of person who did pretty well in school. I usually only get a few questions wrong on most tests, and I'll review those and improve. However, the LSAT is different. I'm getting around 40 questions wrong. How do you guys not get overwhelmed/discouraged?

Hi, I'm doing problem sets and for whatever reason there are no explanation videos for the answers. I enjoy watching the videos because I like to know what I did wrong and right. Why aren't there any explanation videos available? Maybe I am not looking in the right spot, but there aren't any for the practice test answers eithers. It seems as if the explanation videos are only on the syllabus. Can y'all help a sister out?

Hey everyone! I am looking for anyone interested to join a discord where we take and then blind review tests once a week together. We also regularly discuss questions we find difficult. I work full time, so this would be primarily focused on a sunday or saturday prep test, but then we put challenging questions or seek general advice in the discord and go from there. If interested please send me a message and I can add you to the discord channel!

Hi,

I have started the 7Sage Core Curriculum back in June and completed it at the end of December. It took me a while to finish the CC because I created a wrong answer journal for all LR and RC questions. Also, as JY has instructed, I practiced all LG questions in the CC until I can get every question correct with the given amount of time. I took the practice test #1 a week ago. My timed score came out as 148 and blind review score came out as 162. Here is the breakdown:

RC -6

LG -19

LR -9

LR -15

I definitely know that I can improve, but I am just wondering how everyone scored on their first timed test. Considering that I have scored 162 on the blind review, I strongly believe I can get the blind review score up until 175+.

Please share how your first practice test experience was.
