Hi guys,

I'm having a hard time being able to identify game types and knowing what game board setup to use. I recently just started studying for the logic game section and i'm guessing maybe the only way to learn this is it with practice/experience BUT, I'd like to know if anyone else had trouble with this as well and if any particular tips helped with identifying the game type and board setup.

Hello all, I know there are a few posts on this topic but none of them quenched my confusion hence this post.

I have a few questions regarding the calculation of my test score (PT, real test, etc.).

Why is the raw score out of 101 when only 3 sections are graded?

Is the experimental section always the repeated section? (e.g. 1RC, 1LR, 2LG = 1LG will be ungraded)

Does the scoring mechanism enabled in the 7sage "Flex Score Converter" (https://classic.7sage.com/lsat-flex-score-converter) apply to current LSAT tests (2022)? Curious as LSAC does not display current tests as "LSAT Flex", just "LSAT".

I'm really confused about the concept of "Flex" so I want to present a possible scenario:

Let's say I scored -5 RC, -0 LG, -8 LR in a 4 section PT. However there were 2 LRs (both -4) so I excluded one section by myself to arrive at a total of -5 RC, -0 LG and -4 LR. Plugged numbers into the "Flex Converter", did not tick the "2 LR sections" button, selected the correct PT number and received a 172. Disregarding the different curves for each test, would an LSAT test sometime in 2022 be scored the same way?

Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.

I am a non-native speaker. But I did it. I have done all the PT 50-92 3 times in the past 9 months! Drilled all the Questions from PT 1-45.

Im looking to take early/middle year LSAT in 2023! Anyone want to work together to stay on track?

was it beneficial to use 7sage and invest In a tutor ? or did using 7sage independently get you to the score you desired ?

Looking for people who are taking the Lsat in August .

I’m looking for a RC tutor who can help me drastically improve my RC score and who has helped others go from getting 8-10 questions correct to 20+ correct. Someone who is great at breaking down why a question is correct and why other answers are incorrect. I know there’s a a specific way to attack questions types on RC but I haven’t figured it out. Reading for structure isn’t a problem for me. I understand grabbing the main point, author viewpoint, and whether the author disagrees/agrees with a certain point. My main problem is I tend to attack questions all the same in RC and just like LR, each question cannot and shouldn’t be attacked the same way and requires different ways of attack. Message me if you’re able to help.

Hey guys, I am looking for a tutor that's not going to break my pocket. If you are someone one or know someone, please DM thank you.

The correct rationale for choice D being incorrect is its irrelevancy since physiological changes don't sway the argument.

In blind review, I interpreted the answer choice as relevant because if some of the fish didn't recover rapidly from physiological changes (aka. reproductive abnormalities - sentence 1), then even after the occasional mill shutdowns, though the hormone concentrations return, the physiological changes (aka. reproductive abnormalities) persist. So in essence, the recovery of hormones and dioxin decomposition don't matter at all since the physiological changes/abnormalities happen regardless once the fish contact the dioxin.

I think I'm jumping the gun with the physiological changes part because the crux of the argument is on the hormone concentrations, even if physiological changes happen after. I think I'm also assuming physiological changes equal reproductive abnormalities. Or even if physiological changes equal reproductive abnormalities, the recovery times don't matter. I'm probably not even addressing the premise the author gives and focusing on the context.

Hi,

I have been taking PTs and not simulating Flex because I want to practice getting through 4 sections. How predictive of my actual test day scores are these scores given that they are taking the 2 LR sections into account? Is there a score conversion chart anywhere?

Should I take the LSAT just to take it. So I have a score. Even though I am not ready? Or postpone to March.

I am wondering if I am considered a URM. I am an Asian immigrant, of an indigenous ethnic minority in my home country. I've heard that Asians are typically not considered URM, and since the 509 does not specify on ethnicity and indigenous status for students (of groups outside of the Americas), I would assume this means I won't be considered by schools as URM. Does anyone with a background similar to mine have any experience on this in the admissions process? Thanks in advance!

Update: If anyone else was wondering also, based on the questions about ethnicity LSAC asked me (the region where I'm from wasn't even listed... so I just chose Asian Other and my other race), plus based on y'all's feedback, seems like no.

I just got my January 2022 LSAT score of a 166. This was a retake, and I first took the LSAT in October 2020 and got a 165. My goal was a 168-170. I am disappointed but whatever. I really really don’t want to take this again while working full time. I’m thinking of applying this September for the next cycle or throwing in a few applications right now for this cycle. I have a 3.9 GPA, graduated from a top-4 public college, and have a rare physical disability which is what my personal statement is about FWIW.

I applied last cycle with my 165 and didn’t get in anywhere except GWU (but no scholarship). I did get waitlisted at Penn and Michigan fwiw. I am determined to going to law school and would like to get a good amount of scholarship money if I can. It’s just a matter of when. I’m looking at the lower t-14 to t-20s-30. I’m casting a wide net for schools.

Should I even throw in a few applications for this cycle right now or just wait entirely until September? I am very conflicted. Thanks.

Waitlisted at a school where I'm 2 points above their median and I planned to retake the LSAT to show effort and submit an update but have not studied that much and am worried of scoring lower that my highest score. Could a low LSAT score harm my waitlist chances or could retaking it only help me?

Hey 7Sagers,

Hello 7Sage community, I was hoping to get advice from anybody who has been through the struggle of studying for the lsat while working a full time job. I lately have been feeling overwhelmed with how I should be structuring my study schedule. How many Times should I be taking practice tests vs going over the 7 sage lessons. I am just feeling so lost and would love any guidance or insight someone could share.

🙃😭

I'm currently registered for both the April and June 2022 LSAT. If I correctly understand the structure description from LSAC, the LSAT is now 3 scored sections (1 of each type) and 1 unscored experimental section. Does that mean that the test is essentially still a Flex format with the addition of an unscored section, i.e. there is not 2 scored LR sections as the PTs have? If so, should I be choosing to simulate Flex when I am PTing?

Iam the new test taker my plan is to attempt the June LSAT...anyone interested to study with me can message....i have a flexible schedule and i studyy for about 3 4 hours a day. Need some Focus and concentration for cracking the exam...My goal is to get 172+

Hi,

I can see why (B) is correct but I cannot figure out why (C) is wrong. Referring to Line 32 - 34, I thought jazz purists don't like jazz music be play with electic piano. Thus, (C) will also weaken author's characterization on the purists. Could someone explain why? Thanks a lot.

Hey, all!

I have Chronic Fatigue Syndrome and initially started studying for the LSAT in June 2021. I lasted through October 2021, hit a wall, and decided to take a break to focus on my health. Since I have a dynamic disability that causes my energy to fluctuate, I struggle with skills that are crucial to a high LSAT score, like consistency and focus. I'm also neurodivergent and have high anxiety (enough said).

I just picked up studying again this week and have a 5 day streak going (one hour a day). This time around, I'm trying to be kinder to myself and develop a routine that accommodates my health needs. I am determined to reach my biggg goal (175+) despite having a disability, and so far, it's going well because I actually IMPROVED (!) on practice sets after taking my four-month break.

I would love to put together a group chat where any of us struggling with mental or physical health issues can uplift one another and share suggestions about what kind of studying works best for our brains and bodies. Let me know if this is of interest to anyone! :)

I feel like I'm improving overall, but I get defeated after only getting 2 out of 5 on a problem set after get 5 of 6. Then I'll get 8 out of 8, and I'm not sure how to feel. For context, I've been studying since December.

Wondering if this is normal as I continue learning or if my progress should be more linear.

Thanks in advance!

Hi all!

Some folks told me to stick to taking practice tests using only the 60s and onwards, and to use the tests prior to the 60s just for casual drilling. I wanted to know what ya'll thought and if it is good to throw in an older PT in the 50s or earlier every now and then.

Thanks!

Anyone who has done Khan: What are your thoughts?

From what I'm reading, it appears that there's not really a mechanism for analytics within problem sets. I would find this very helpful, and would particularly love to be able to see the "Question Type Analysis" section of the Analytics page within my problem sets, since that's where the bulk of my practice has been so far. Is there a way to do this that I'm missing??
