Hey just finished the retake!! Just wondering if the score for todays retakers will be released on 10/27 like everyone else or we will have to wait longer? Can't find anything on it just that the 10/14 - 10/17 retakers get their score on the 27th still.

are these even available on 7sage? I can’t find them

I've read both PowerScore bibles and workbooks back-to-back, drilled tons, and done around 10 PT or so, yet consistently I'm scoring around -10 on each LR section and -8 or worse on each LG section.

What am I missing? Was there something that finally "cracked the code" for you? I also just started doing actual Blind Review as of my last PT and Blind Review'ing LG is kind of daunting. Am I supposed to start the game from scratch for those that I have questions I'm not sure about?

Any help or advice is greatly appreciated! We're all in this together.

I saw this on some LSAT prep book:

Question: for example in a mistake necessary as sufficient question,

Premise: If A then B.

Conclusion: B therefore A.

Given two answer choices

C, therefore A.

Should we choose the one with additional premise or the one with contrapositive conclusion?

I take the November test and I'm still missing -12 to -15 on every LR section.

Hi all! I've been pondering this question for a while but still have trouble seeing why answer choices (B) and (D) are incorrect.

I tried to supply polar answers to the questions posed in (B) and (D). My thought process was:

Any light you can shed on my thought process (and why it's incorrect) would be greatly appreciated! #help

Hello everyone!

I was hoping for some advice in regards to improving speed across all sections… I have been prepping for quite some time now and have made my way through the lsat trainer, powerscore books, and manhattan prep books. I feel like I finally understand the concepts behind each section/question stem, but my inability to finish each section on time is a major concern.

For context, I have been using the blind review method for about two weeks now, but keep running into the same problem. I am PTing around 156 and feel 100% certainty with the answer choices I submit, but the issue is that I’ll leave every section with around 8 or more unanswered questions. The only reason I’m even scoring a 156 with all of the blanks in each section is because the answers I do finish are always right, and more importantly they make sense to me... But obviously that means very little when my goal is to PT in the high 160s ASAP.

Please let me know if you have found yourself in a similar situation, and if so, what has helped you with your timing? I feel like the blind review hasn’t been helping me with this particular issue, because the missed questions end up being what I review during the untimed assessment and it’s potentially keeping me in the same cycle.

Do you have any ideas on how I can perhaps approach BR differently to tackle this specific problem?

I would truly appreciate any wisdom you can share here! It’s my first time here, so thank you. Also, my lsat is coming up real soon… haha.

My diagnostic has been mid 160s but I doubt I'll score anywhere near that. I also can't seem to focus 100% on lsat since I have a very, very stressful job

What should I do..

J.Y. starts the video off and seems to think it's obvious how to diagram the game, but when I did it, I was totally unsure and did three different types of diagrams (one where it's a single row of 5 slots, with each game piece having the lecture hall attached to it, such as OH, OG, etc.; another where it was two columns, one for G and another for H; and so on).

There are several LG I've done where the set-up reads very similar to this one, yet the diagram was totally different in the solution.

How can I identify this game type in the future and know how to diagram it immediately?

Hey guys.

Since the start of the 3 section/1 unscored section LSATs, how is it graded? I recently saw someone say that the scoring is not the same, so to put my score into the 7Sage calculator isn't an accurate reflection of my score.

Kinda worried here, anyone have any knowledge about this?

#Help

I can't seem to find a direct answer to this. Will the November LSAT be Flex with 3 graded sections plus an experimental section or will the test be back to normal?

I'm a bit confused about the last paragraph. It states that the soil that was taken from land that's been out of production for twenty years contains beneficial microorganisms in the first sentence but when I go further, it states that beneficial microorganisms are lacking (Lines 45-50) so which is it? I thought lines 45-50 supported D but then the first sentence contradicts D so idk what's going on.

My issue with this stimulus is about the term consent versus consult. If ANY of the members had said "No" to the release of this report, would that still mean the chairperson consulted them?

Hi.

So I talked with my employer who is a lawyer who agreed to write me a letter of recommendation.

But she is asking me for specific information for the letter. I'm not exactly what she meant by specific information unless it's the link to submit it. Does anyone know? I kept looking around and tried to look into each law school if they had anything requiring anything for LoRs, but I'm not seeing anything.

Hey guys, when it comes to the Logical Games I am having problems Diagrams some of the games, if someone could help I would appreciate it Thank You.

Tomorrow will be the day I take an initial diagnostic test for the LSAT—should I start with a more recent test from the selection of practice tests, or does it not matter all that much? Thanks.

Hi everyone,

Since I started studying for RC my scores have gone up a little, but not significantly because I don't put much practice time into them. I've made sure I know what each question is asking, how to figure out the main point and the essentials like that. Is my best bet for improvement through just hammering RC passages, like doing all the old ones? Thank you!

Hi! I have done all the 60-80's PTs and now have to rely on the older exams (30-50)and was wondering which ones have you found to be the most similar? Is it bad to base a practice test on the older exams? Should I redo 60-80PT's? I took some about 3 months ago but it is not a fresh test so am worried.

I took the LSAT years ago and got a 158 and 159, I took it again this July after using 7sage and got 158 again. I know where I could have done better. My Logic games I just was drawing blanks on the first game and jumped to the next one, I feel pretty confident on the next 2 games but with the 4th and going back to the 1st I had about 7 minutes to complete. So with that had to take the time to get the easy for sure questions and guess on the back half with time running down for games 1 and 4.

Just wondering how much those two games probably hurt my score and any other advice besides just repetition of past games?

My RC is probably my strongest area I actually finished my section with about 6 minutes left to go back and play with a few I was unsure of, so not a lot of room for improvement there.

My LR is pretty solid there could be a little more improvement there, but the games is always what kill my score.

Hi! I have an early decision deadline coming up pretty soon and am trying to get as much feedback on my personal statement as possible. Would love to help out anyone who would also like feedback on their PS! Message me and we can swap! :)

I thought on the LSAT, it was one cause per effect, not multiple causes per effect. Why is the correct answer acceptable in this instance? Shouldn't bulging disks be the ONLY cause of pain and not one of multiple potential factors? And I'm also confused by the use of the term "sufficient." Is this "sufficient" as in the causal sufficient (enough to cause pain) or the conditional sufficient or both?

Bulging disks---> pain

Does anyone know on which date we will be able to schedule the date and time of our November LSAT on proctoru? I don't see the date anywhere on LSAC.

Does anybody think its not necessary to add in an experimental section? In my opinion i just don't see it working well for me. Not knowing which one is experimental seems to be the worst factor which is eliminated when you add in your own. On top of that i warm up a good bit before a PT, which rules out fatigue. And honestly i don't think i can be worried about fatigue when i study for 5-8 hours on average. Thoughts?

Some schools note at least 2 recommendation letters, with max of 3 or 4, and I was wondering how many are you guys submitting?

Hey everyone!

I recently took the October LSAT after PT’ing almost entirely 170+ over the last two months (with BR scores in the high 170s/180). I feel pretty confident about the Oct. LSAT, but had some technical errors and am currently studying for the November LSAT as a back-up.

For the next several weeks leading up to the test, I am offering FREE “semi-tutoring” to a few students who are also preparing for the November (and possibly January) LSAT. I am probably going to be most helpful to those who have finished the CC and are taking one or more practice tests a week, and to those who would like someone to go over exams/certain questions with after the Blind Review process. I have completed between 15-20 PT’s (excluding the CC of course), and I’m planning to take 1-2 PT’s per week in the weeks leading up to the Nov. LSAT.

Quick Disclaimer: I am not in any way a professional/experienced tutor, nor am I claiming to have mastered the LSAT in any capacity. I’m performing well under timed conditions, with near perfect BR scores, and I am hoping that tutoring/reviewing with other students will be beneficial to my own progress - essentially to help close my gap between the low-mid 170s and mid-high 170s. I am also interested in potentially tutoring post Nov. LSAT and honestly would like to see if I am any good at it!

Feel free to add me as a study buddy in order to view my analytics. To offer a bit more detail, LG is typically -0, while LR and RC are usually a bit more volatile depending on the section (but you can view those on my analytics page as well)!

If you think you’d benefit from a session or two a week going over PT’s and/or timed sections, please send me a direct message with a quick summary including: your next LSAT registration, your PT averages/section breakdowns, and a quick synopsis of your strengths/weaknesses on sections and PT's overall - AND please add me under 7sage study buddies (so I can also view your stats to see if we’d make a good pairing)!

Good luck to everyone who just took October LSAT and to those studying for the upcoming test next month!
