Am having trouble with this question - could someone let me know if I'm thinking about the stimulus (and ACs) correctly?

Stim:

P1: When old trees die, the decomposition releases their stored CO2

P2: Harvesting old trees makes more room for young trees (who can absorb more CO2 than old trees)

C: Harvesting old trees for manufacturing things would reduce CO2 (and therefore we'd avoid the whole decomposing issue?)

My thoughts: Okay, that seems like it makes relative sense. There's an assumption there that the CO2 release by decomposed old trees would be offset by the young trees that can absorb more CO2.

ACs:

A - Animal species? Irrelevant.

B - At first I immediately eliminated this AC because it just didn't seem to make any sense. After more reading, it seems like okay, if the harvested old trees were manufactured into products that would decompose super quickly, we could still run into the CO2 decomposition issue.

C - This was the AC I originally picked, thinking that since a young tree contains 10 CO2 vs an old tree that contains 40 CO2, then clearly the young tree can't offset the decomposition of an old tree. But I think this AC is actually irrelevant because of course a young tree at a snapshot would contain less CO2 than an old tree would - but this seems to attack P2?

D - Irrelevant, dont need to know where most of the CO2 in a forest comes from.

E - I feel like this AC is trying to get us to attack P2 in a similar way C is, but we'd have to also assume that size of trees has some sort of correlation with CO2 absorption.

I know the actual LSAT right now is 4 sections (1 of them being experimental). I'm a bit confused though - if we take a 4 section preptest on 7Sage, we get a score that takes into account ALL sections. But the actual LSAT only scores us based on 3 sections right? Since one of them is experimental?

I am filling out the general scholarship application form for Texas Law and they ask "Please state any special, personal, or family circumstances that affect your need for financial support." This is a required short answer question. Any advice for filling out this question? I am not a first generation student or in any sort of unique circumstance, but I also do not have enough money saved for law school and am trying to avoid serious debt.

Long story short I may need to consider the 5 attempts within 5 years limit and am writing up the appeal now.

The exam I am looking to appeal is a canceled score because I couldn't perform that day due to a medical episode, but it was too late to withdraw because the 24 hour period had passed.

Would love someone to give it a once over if they have time!

Is it possible to blind review a prep test that I took after I falsely stated that I blind reviewed it because I wanted to see what my score was right away? Or can I not go back and blind review it? Thanks! (I think it was probably a stupid idea not to blind review before seeing my score, but I was too impatient...)

Hey! I'm studying for the March 12 exam for 2022 and was wondering if anyone wants to make a big groupchat or just hold each other accountable on studying, as well as study together! Just lmk if you're interested!

My laptop screen is small and the built-in webcam/mic is unreliable, so I called and spoke with someone at LSAC this morning to see if an external monitor connected with an HDMI cable to my closed laptop would be alright. They said no, and that my test would be flagged if I used an external monitor and a bluetooth webcam.

The built-in webcam/mic is unreliable because it may randomly turn-off (happens on Zoom occasionally). I guess I can request an LSAC tablet, but does anyone have any thoughts or advice?

Hey everyone,

I'v read here that some people send in their applications in order to meet the deadline, but before receiving their LSAT score. Is this possible? Will it hurt my chances in getting in? How do I make sure that they know not to make a decision before they receive my score? Will I even be able to submit the application without the score?

Pleased Advise

Some law schools I am applying are also schools I applied for undergrad. I am considering reusing my undergrad personal statement for diversity statement. Does anyone know if law school admissions check undergrad apps or it's going to disadvantage me by doing so?

Looking to chat with anyone who has had a positive experience appealing the 5 attempts within 5 years policy. :)

For me, both are to support the argument.

But, it’s to hard to distinguish how to approach to each.

Is there anyone who can explain how to approach to each Q?

Thanks!

I'm confused why the answer isn't x,y,z. Ik the Falafel truck serves 2 at a time but shouldn't it be able to serve all 3 if we cover all possible scenerios?

I got with a "HOLD" yesterday morning from a school I am interested in. No other information other than saying they have reviewed my file once but have not made a decision yet - accept, deny, or WL.

I've heard mixed responses. Some people say to send an LOCI and others say to not do anything to not burden law school officers with more materials.

I have no idea what the best thing to do is. Should I send an LOCI or should I sit down and do nothing?

If someone updated to current application cycle in their CRS recently 1 week ago, then how long after can they expect CRS application fee-waivers from T14? How long does it take for CRS fee-waiver to trigger?

I mistakenly didn't update CRS app cycle until last week, and plan to apply to a few schools in T14 that are known to give out fee-waiver from CRS. Should one hold out for waiver or at this late in the cycle CRS doesn't do it?

Hey Guys!

I have an established discord server with other members taking the test where we have created an awesome community. Some members left or were inactive so we have opened the group up to new members. Message below if interested and I will send a discord server link in your dms. Really excited to add new members to our community!

Hello, I wonder if anyone could help me to locate a LR question, which I guess I came across while I was doing core curriculum or PTs in 50s.

The question is about a principle labeling a carrot as "nonfat":

If we are to label an actually nonfat food like a carrot as "nonfat", it should be mistakenly believed to be a fatty food.

Also, if people mistakenly believe a nonfat food as a fat food and if that nonfat food is labeled as nonfat food, it may be labeled as "nonfat".

I wish I could give you more information about the question.. or is there any way to filter out prep questions using a keyword?

Hi guys! Im looking to take the March 2022 LSAT and was looking to start a study group - maybe some people who like video studying?? (Pomodoro 50/10) I study best with people around so was wondering if anyone would be interested!

Hey guys, I have been studying the LSAT about a year now and I am still having difficulty with the exam. If anyone wants to get together to study, please feel free to leave me a message. I am only looking for serious people who wants to get together to study. Thank You.

I had originally chosen AC C because I didn't carefully read the "that is not based on coconut oil" portion, so now I can see how D is correct.

However, if C had said "Nondairy coffee lighteners made with coconut oil..." - would that have made it a strengthening AC? It seemed like the stimulus was trying to allude to the fact that maybe fat has a stronger impact on cholesterol levels than cholesterol themselves.

PT 84 S4 Q6 has the answer choices mixed up and incorrectly marks the correct answer as wrong. The answers are presented as "A - 2 B- 3 C- 4 D- 5 E- 6" when you take it but the video shows it as "A- 3 B- 4 C-5 D- 6 E- 7". The video says 4 is the correct answer and thus B is correct but this is not what the test when taken shows and thus it marks the correct answer of 4 wrong when you chose C to indicate 4.

I need some guidance on how to drill LR, LG and RC. Basically I need to practice LR, LG and RC in between PTs and I’m trying to mirror the drill to PTs so I can practice individual sections and hone in on weaknesses. What’s the best way to do this?

Hi all!

Hi 7sagers,

I'm looking for a tutor after what I believe was a poor performance on Jan LSAT, my fourth. Previous best was a 160 in November and I was targeting a 162-3 this time around. I'm expecting under 160, definitely frustrating. Worked really hard, was doing 4 game sections plus some RC and LR every day, but I did a few PTs the week before the test and struggled. Went into the test a little unconfident.

It's been about 8 months of full-time studying and something needs to change. Effort is there but results aren't coming.

RC: Around -7 every time. The 2-passage RC passages suck up a lot of my time when I'm not getting the fine differences.

LR: Consistently around a -5 to -8.

LG: Around a -3 or -4 but I had poor timing on Jan LSAT, couldn't adequately attack 4th game.

My budget isn't crazy high but it's something, so DM me with your price regardless!

Thank you!

Hey all,

I am registered for the February LSAT but I just don't think I will be ready to take. I notice that today is the deadline to register for the March LSAT. But do I need to register today for it? Or can I just reschedule it after the deadline?
