What is included in the 7sage mini-course for LR or RC? Does 7sage have explanations for all LR / RC questions ala LG videos?

Looking for someone who I can BR with for the June LSAT (BRing with someone has shown to help out for both accountability and discussion of questions), Scoring 163-166 over my last 6 PT's, looking for someone who scores in a similar range and wants to BR and bounce ideas off of for methods/Q strategies/ Etc.

I am in desperate need of a tutor. if anyone can help please let me know!
Well i speedran through the cc and the variety in the number of questions was initially pretty difficult for me to properly adjust to, given that the methods listed in the cc are somewhat distinct from each other. I tried a section and struggled. However, now that I consciously take note of the main point, premise, and maybe some implied basis for support, the questions just seem to be going right for me. I'm still not where I want to be, but it's a start. Has anyone else been where I am? If so, has this method of just having an insane focus on the mp, premise, and support been of greater use to you than using conditional logic, especially in questions where it gets particularly tricky to use cl?
Hello 7Sagers,
Anyone have an alternate way from JY's of conceptualizing the game board set up on this one?

Happy studying!
This is the question I found in PT 19 section 1, third game.
If F is assigned to b2, G is assigned to b2.
If V is assigned to b1, W is assigned to b2.
Does it mean that if F is in b1, G can be b2 or b1?
Does it mean that V is in b2, W can be in b1 or b2?
I follow the logic F b2 -> G b2, but not the opposite direction, so G can be in any position when F is in b1.
I hope it is correct.

Can two arguments that are contrapositives of one another be considered parallel in a parallel argument question? #help
Why is the correct answer D? As opposed to E, I can understand that no where in the text does it show that in order for a consumer to purchase the merchandise, they must have the ability to verify any and all claims regarding it. Yet, for choice D, I am having a hard time understanding why there would be a contradiction made.
Got a random notification from here with a response to some logic games comment and I logged in to here to delete my account and wanted to provide an update.
I half assedly went through the 7sage curriculum for a few weeks during the summer before senior year of undergrad, stopped studying, and then months later took the lsat and got a 158 iirc. Once I learned about the bimodal salary distribution and merit scholarships (thanks TLS), I decided to retake the lsat to aim for a scholarship at a t14 that can get me a big law job to pay off my loans.
After undergrad, I spent a couple months at 2-4 hours a day of 7sage and PTs while working full time as a legal secretary. I was scoring from 162-172 on PTs and almost rescheduled the lsat cuz I wasn’t consistently scoring 167+, but I went for it anyways. Got a 168. I had a 3.8+ gpa from a state school. Got into UT, Vanderbilt, and Georgetown, and waitlisted at almost all the rest of the t14 where I applied. Used Vandy and UT to negotiate a 30% scholarship at Georgetown. Didn’t get off any waitlists despite visiting and sending a lot of LOCIs. Not much WL movement that cycle.
Got a 3.3 gpa during 1L and then raised that to a 3.5 during fall 2L (pandemic OCI was during 2L), which with upperclass grade curve inflation is actually around median and OCI was pretty tough. I did get a big law job in NY. I’m from CA and hate the east coast but I didn’t bother trying to apply to CA firms. Thankfully my firm let me switch before the summer associate gig started. And I applied to be a visiting student at a CA school during 3L so I could move back to CA and settle down where I want to live after law school and 3LOL in warm weather at the beach.
I have like 190k in student loans to pay off including undergrad so I’m very thankful that online resources guided me to a job that can actually pay that off.
Law school kinda blows and in hindsight I would’ve just been a business major in undergrad and not gone to grad school. As an immigrant I didnt really have the resources and network and knowledge that a lot of students have to be able to use a bachelor’s to get a high paying job. I’m happy it all worked out for me cuz my goal was just job security and I feel I have that since I got into big law.
Hi everyone,
I just resubscribed to 7sage today. It said to purchase the prep plus program from Law Hub to access material. I purchased it. However, it still won't let me access the material such as videos. I think this is because I had 2 LSAC accounts and I might have linked this 7sage account with the other one that I did not purchase the prep program on. Is there a way to change the LSAC/LawHub account that is linked to this 7sage account?
Thanks.
Hello everyone, I am planning on taking the June 2022 LSAT… I have been studying for a while… I am having a hard time getting my practice test scores to where I really need them to be and really dont know where to start in diagnosing where I am going wrong… I am feeling a little overwhelmed. Any guidance would be appreciated :)
Does this mean that the sufficient alone is enough for the conclusion to be drawn and once the conclusion can be drawn, the necessary is a must?
Hi everyone,
LSAC provided the following updates today:
Registration is now open for all 2022-2023 LSAT Administrations
As of 7:30 a.m. ET today, May 12, registration is open for all 2022-2023 LSAT administrations, starting with the August 2022 LSAT through the June 2023 LSAT. There will be four administrations in the summer/fall period, and four test administrations in winter/spring. LSAC has aligned the test administrations so that score release dates fall before the registration deadline for the second subsequent test. This was done to ensure that test takers who may wish to re-test will be able to see their results before deciding to register for a future test.
Pricing for 2022-2023 cycle
To address the rising costs associated with administering the test, the fee for the LSAT will be $215 for the 2022-2023 cycle. The test date change fee will move from $125 to $135, and the score audit fee will move from $125 to $150. All other fees remain the same.
LSAC’s expanded fee waiver program
LSAC has expanded its fee waiver program to make more people eligible and added a new tier for individuals who don’t qualify for the full fee waiver but still need some assistance. These changes have enabled more candidates to qualify for our fee waivers.
Under the expanded program, independent individuals earning less than 250% of the federal poverty guidelines may be eligible for the Tier 1 fee waiver, which provides the following services for free: two LSAT tests, Credential Assembly Service, six law school reports, a one-year LawHub LSAT PrepPlus subscription, and one Score Preview. Independent individuals earning more than 250% but less than 300% of the federal poverty guidelines may be eligible for the Tier 2 fee waiver, which provides one LSAT test, Credential Assembly Service, four law school reports, a one-year LawHub LSAT PrepPlus subscription, and one Score Preview. Detailed eligibility information is available on LSAC's website.
Two new free programs for prospective students
LSAC is offering two online programs to help students make sense of the law school admission process and the world of law school itself – (1) Law School Unmasked™, a program designed for students planning to enroll in law school this fall, which will run from June 7 through June 23, and (2) Admission Unmasked™, a program designed for anyone planning to apply to law school in the upcoming cycle or later, which will run June 20 through July 29.
Both programs are free to LawHub members, and students can register for either program within their LawHub account.
If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to LSAC by contacting them via email at LSACinfo@LSAC.org or calling them at 215-968-1001.
A couple of us got a study group together on Discord. We are going to be over prep tests once a week as well as LG,RC, and LR at least once a week. In addition, we can do accountability for individual study sessions. Let me know if interested.
Episode #75 is here!

Hi there, I was wondering if I could get some advice. When I read the stimulus I usually read it out loud (like the instructor in the videos) to fully understand what the stimulus is saying and to better retain the information. Should I continue doing this as it works, or should I try to read the stimulus in my head. My fear is that I will be accused of cheating when reading the stimulus out loud.

Hi I just did a logic game in PT9 (S3 G3). I was wondering if you know of another logic game in the practice question bank that is similar to PT9 S3 G3? I would like to practice a similar game type under a different scenario.
Anyone have advice on determining when a flaw question has jumped from a correlation to a cause and effect argument? Each flaw question I do with correlation and causation in the mix, I never can identify when the AC is 'infers cause from mere correlation'. Any help is appreciated! :)

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!
Has anyone experienced drastic changes in their PTs? I've made good progress in breaking into the mid 160s, then dropped into the low 150s, broke into the 170, but my last score was a 153. BRs are consistently in the 170s. I've taken 6 PTs so far. It might just be a purely mental/emotional thing? A bad LG section definitely throws me off (which is what happened for my low scores), and I find it hard to recover in the next sections after LG. A bad LG section 1 would probably be my worst nightmare.
Has anyone else had similar experiences?
#help please
At the time of application my GPA for UG will be a 3.73. UT is my number one choice and they have a Median GPA of 3.8. With being significantly lower than the median is my gpa a splitter requiring a fairly high LSAT score?
