Hey all, I'm a 27M and I'm averaging around 153 which is not good enough for my target school. I could use some work in all sections. Seeking a person or group of patient and focused people to work with. My goal is to take the April 2022 LSAT.

I can be flexible with my schedule so just PM me if you are interested, friendly, and patient. Good vibes only.

Hey Everyone, I am looking to find people to study with for the LSAT

Hi everyone,

Typically, I average between -4 and -2 in untimed LG sections. I have recently introduced timing into preparing for the LSAT and my score is usually between -8 and -6.

I've noticed that the reason why I get certain questions wrong is because I don't spend enough time upfront making inferences or splitting game boards. So, I end up spending most of my time using brute force to answer the questions.

I wanna get better at making inferences and seeing easily how games can be split up during the timed sections. Does any one have any input on what I should do going forward? I have heard of the foolproof method but have not tried it yet. I'm also open to any other suggestions!

Thank you!

Hi guys!

I am not a native English speaker. All those twenty years I read English on paper. I am practicing reading English on my computer for the digital LSAT. At first, I thought this won't be that hard, maybe I could find my way quickly. But it's so hard to change my reading habits and make my eyes get used to reading those tiny English letters on the screen. It's completely different if I print those PTs and finish them on paper. I will read more carefully and I can mark the keywords without being distracted. Do you have any tips for me? Thanks again!

I hope everyone is having a great holiday! I am currently filling out an "Activities & Interests" question in one of the built-in text boxes in a law school application form on the LSAC site. I am separating each of my activities with a line break, but when I view the PDF preview of my application before hitting submit, it is apparent that the line breaks aren't processing and instead all of my activities show up as a single blob. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this and force the software the recognize the line break? Does anyone have any insight into whether the PDF preview is an exact replica of what admissions readers will see? Thanks so much for any help!

I am looking for tips in RC from people who have managed to get -0 or -1 in RC. Thanks!

I initially picked E, but with BR I picked B and I know clearly why its the right answer, but why is E wrong?

I seem to be confused on which questions types to expect Alternative-Reversal-Coincidence answer choices when dealing with a causal argument. Is this exclusive to Strengthen-Weaken questions? Thanks in advance for any help on this.

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!

About to take my diagnostic and I'm unsure what to expect. What would you all think is a good or bad score. less than 140 is bad, 140-149 is decent, and 150+ is good? Thanks!

Hi everyone, I recently finished my LSAT and I scored a 168. I was averaging 172 on PTs and am willing to tutor a few students 1 on 1 for free. I was lucky enough to get help on my LSAT journey so I wanted to give back. Please dm me on 7sageprep if you are interested. Also, let me know what you are averaging on your PTs as well as when you plan on taking the LSAT.

Thank you to my fellow 7Sagers. So excited!!!!

Hi, is anyone willing to do a free tutoring session? I have been studying for months and I feel as If my score isn't moving. My exam is in Jan. Thank you guys.

I've seen a few discouraged posts on the forum lately..I also had a giant pity party the last three days after taking an LR section and performing so much worse than I should have. I haven't wanted to touch LR since.. heck, I haven't even been interested in celebrating the holidays. Anyways, I was wallowing and wasting time on social media when I saw a post that helped get out of my funk. This isn't anything we haven't heard before but I thought it was well written so I hope it helps some of you as well:

You have given so much to this, and I just hope you know that even here, your work is not in vain. It might take a little longer to arrive where you want to be, but you are still free to take this day by day. Even when you are weary of waiting. Even when you are having to watch others reach the same exact heights you were reaching for, you are not a failure. You are not behind. You will still arrive where you need to be in time. Your story is just going to look a little different. But you will rise anyway. You will find a strength you did not know you had. You will find that even when things did not go according to plan, it did not hinder you from traveling the course. And no matter the additional time it took, it was not too late for you.

PS: if a weird sense of humor is more encouraging to some of you, google "Hope Is Not a Bird, Emily, It's a Sewer Rat". it'll give you a laugh

Looking to take the test in August; I have taken before without really studying at all, but need a tutor to keep me accountable and on track for Aug 2022. I work full time; so I need to spread out my studying a bit more to cover everything. Weaknesses are RC (90% of my problem) and LR (17-24ish questions, 10% of my problem). Let me know your rate and when available! I can be flexible with hours and do my lunch break etc. since I work from home.

Hey everyone,

I am having some difficulty with the five star questions in logical reasoning sections. Often times, these are the only questions that I get wrong on a section. On one hand I suppose it’s good that I’m getting the 1 to 4 star questions consistently correct, however, I’m getting pretty irritated haha

The question types are across-the-board. There aren’t really any specific questions that I do worse or better on when it comes to five star questions.

What is your preferred method for improving this?

Thanks!

Anyone want to swap personal statements and peer review???

Hello! I am having trouble with main point questions. These questions to me have the hardest ACs to distinguish from each other. I am doing well in my studies, with a typical low 170s score and usualy -4/-5 but can be up to -7 on RC. I find that I always get a main point question wrong. Even if I feel i have a solid understanding of the passage and get no other questions wrong for that passage.

Any tips? What processes or tricks do you guys use for main point questions?

I took the November LSAT, did well, but not well enough considering my gpa (f in the chat) so I'm taking it again in January...but it's been a whole month and I haven't started studying again, and have literally zero motivation, and it feels like there's not enough time left to increase my score by 3 points. Helpppp

I really start to doubt my answers when I answer the same letter 2-3 times in a row.

For example, the answer to questions 5,6 & 7 turn out to be C....this makes me really nervous.

Anyone else? Any tips?

I'm really struggling to set up my game boards both quickly and in a manner that is helpful to solve the games. For example, I did PT 34, S4 today and could not for the life of me figure out how to set up the game board. Once I watched the explanation, it made total sense and it took me about :30 to answer each question.

Are there videos/tutorials I'm missing outside of these following lessons?:

Introduction to Logic Games & Sequencing Games

Sequencing Games with a Twist

Introduction to Grouping Games: The In-Out Games

Grouping Games

Grouping Games with a Chart

Grouping and Sequencing Games

Any other resources on learning how to set up game boards quickly and in a manner that actually helps the game would be much appreciated!

We have a new post on our 7Sage LSAT Newsletter! In this edition, 7Sage Tutor Claire Sullivan discusses how to know if you are ready to take the test. You can read it here:

https://7sage.substack.com/p/lsat-digest-12222021?r=11qzul&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web

Is there any way to sort analytics based on type of passages for reading comp? I want to see the overall trends in comparative passages I've done in PTs to see which questions I've most commonly missed so I can focus on those. #help

Episode #62 is here!

I am so consistent at being inconsistent. I have had LR sections with -3 and -1 and then I’ll follow that up with -5 and -6. It’s so frustrating because I know I can do this. I want to take this test in January but don’t know if I’ll be ready by then. February is an easy date to shoot for but I want this over with. This test is so damn hard and stressful. I hate it. Ughhhh
