I absolutely love this feature. It motivates me so much when it tells me that I will get a certain percentage wrong, and then I actually do! Ahhh!
One thing, though, is that I wish we can choose to restrict newer PT questions. This would be much desired
Other than that, I think it is one of the best study tools ever. What do you guys think?
I have just been trying to take timed sections and not the whole test, is there a way to do this without starting a full test?
Update: This is what was shared with me
Suggested RC: PT 68 P3, 74 P4, 80 P1, 82 P3, 83 P4, 87 P4, 61 P3, 67 P3, 82 P3, 40 P3, 50 P4, 77 P4, 85 P2, 86 P4, 67 P4, 81 P2M 85 P1, 87 P3.
Suggest LR: PT 83, 81, 78, 89, 86, 85 (Most important) , 70 (Hardest LR)
Suggested LG:
a. Grouping: PT 28 G3, 39 G2, 48 G3, 81 G4, 83 G1 + 3
b. Circular: PT 41 G4
c. Mapping: PT 79 G4
d. Pattern: PT 72 G4, 80 G4
e. Grouping/Linear Combo: PT 64 G4, 82 G3
f. Basic Linear: PT 78 G3, 82 G2, 86 G3
g. Advanced Linear: PT 37 G1 + 4, 76 G3, 83 G4, 87 G3
h. For Seq Elements: PT 75 G3, 84 G1
Suggested Full-Test Practice Tests: PT 89, 90, 91, 92
Hope this helps :)
Is anyone else having this issue? I can create a drill or choose a preptest but then no test or drill appears
Hi everyone,
When sequencing games use years instead of the basic numerical set-up, it really confuses me. Tips on how to speed up my process when I get something like 1989-1995 instead of 1-7? Should I put the years on my game board?
Thank you in advance for any help.
Hi everyone,
What is the best way to diagram spatial (circular) sequencing games? And am I likely to see one on test day? I tried to diagram a circular sequencing game close to the beginning of my prep (I think it was the June 1991 PT) and literally drew a circle for each board, which took way too long and felt way too artsy (lol), and I don’t think I should have done it that way, since the only thing that the circle was conveying was that certain game pieces were across from each other.
Thanks in advance for any help.
So, I've been foolproofing LG and this is my process.
Most times (like 90%) I only have to foolproof once after BR. I make sure I know the game inside and out during BR which is why I mostly don't have to foolproof again.
Is this okay? or do people usually foolproof a couple of times even though they keep getting the question correct?
Tell me what you did.
For disagreement questions, are the disagreement tends to be the conclusion or premise? Or it could be both?
Hi,
I have decided to push back my test date and give myself more time to study. I saw that someone else had a great success with using the “teaching” method to get better in different sections. I thought maybe we can recreate this and try to improve. I am very good with LG with consistently averaging -0 incorrect on it but struggling with LR section. I thought we could use the teaching method to help each other improve.
What I was hoping was to have a day or two each week were we switch off being the “teacher” and try to teach each other a section of the LSAT. This would force you and I to be on the spot and convince each other on the correct answer for each question. I really think this would help each other to force us to think through the questions and hone in on our fundamental.
I am not sure if I explained this well but if you’re still here and interested, lmk and I’ll set up a group me or WhatsApp group chat to facilitate our study.
Best advice for LR diagramming? I still find it a bit difficult to do to get the right answer.
Hi everyone,
Whenever I complete a sequencing games drill, my set-up time is always way too long…I don’t know how to speed this process up because I usually make all of the relevant boards and inferences during my set-up time. As a result, I always finish the questions quickly and under time. My time is usually collectively less than the target time, but my set-up time is always over the target set-up time.
Is this sustainable in the long run, or should I focus on taking my set-up time down? If I need to speed up on set-up, how should I work on doing so?
Thank you for any help.
This happens to me the majority of the time I end up getting an answer wrong. Most of the time ( and I feel stupid for saying this) the right answer choice looks too easy and I feel like I'm being suckered into choosing that answer - 90% of the time that "easy" answer choice ends up being right. Any tips to overcome this?
Hi, I am a Canadian LSAT taker and have taken 2 times before, (159, 162). I want an increase in my score and want to try again before I apply for Canadian Schools (UVIC, U Ottawa, etc.) I am debating between September and October LSATS because I want to apply but do not want a very late admission, but I do want as much time for the best success.
Any advice?
Finding a claim to be false on the grounds that it would if true have consequences that are false. If not, then why?
Hi everyone, I have a weird question. But I’m sure all of us had taken many prep tests to help us prepare for the actual test. But I’m wondering if all these prep tests would “repeat” on the actual test meaning; the same question and answers. Or do they provide a separate and different test?
Lawhub has 2 free PTs (71 and 73) and khanacademy.com has ~6 free computer-based LSAT tests.
But the layout of LR/LG/RC sections in Lawhub is very different than khanacademy PT, e.g. the font, eliminate AC etc.
Which layout is the actual/real LSAT administration would appear on the computer?
Is the real one "exactly" the same as Lawhub?
Hello fellow 7Sagers! I figured we were all in this LSAT Journey together, so I decided to create this discussion thread for this particular question/type. I did get the answer correct, so in this thread I will be going through my thought process; I am open to advice.
Answer Choice A - Incorrect. Why? It is irrelevant to the naturalists' claim.
Answer Choice B - Incorrect. Why? Optimum means "best." Therefore, since the claim is about the survival and adaptability of mice, how is it supporting the naturalists' claim?
*Answer Choice C - Incorrect. Why? Though the fossil remains do in fact prove that mice are able to survive and adapt, the mention of harsh and unbearable weather for human conditions is mentioned in the conclusion/claim, thus making the answer choice incorrect and irrelevant. (Someone discuss this with me please! I almost got tripped up with this one. How can I avoid that?).
Answer Choice D - Correct. Why? Shows that mice are able to adapt and survive in harsh climates by providing an example that is deadly for human life (i.e., Antarctica).
Answer Choice E - Incorrect. Why? It is irrelevant to the claim.
This question was more on the easier side, but - for right now - these are the question types I need to focus on. If you have any tips for strengthening questions, once again, I am open to advice!
Is there a way to see how long it takes for me to finish an entire game set instead of per question? This would be helpful for LG and RC!
IDK the process/forum etiquette for feature requests, so apologies if this is not the right venue/classification.
Working on getting my time down for boards, would love a way to pick problems based on how overtime I was. I tend to mismanage time and get correct answers after spending too much time on them. This is something to fix more generally, but would still like to be able to practice to address this skill.
RN I have a workaround by looking at my question table analytics and manually selecting problems, but it would be nice to have it as a feature!
HI All, I am looking for a study group. I am looking to possibly create a schedule and meeting once a week and go over any questions or things we can help one another improve on. Would anyone be interested in joining.
Hi I know MC and MP questions are fairly easy to tackle first. I am wondering what I should approach next. Does anyone have suggestions?
I've wasted a lot of time trying to create scenarios for games that ultimately didn't need to or couldn't work with hypotheticals. Sometimes it's obvious, if there's too many possible scenarios then you just power through it, but several times (for me) it's not. Any tips?
Hi,
I can't see the explanation videos for LR when I create my own problem sets. The only option I get is discuss under the explanation tab. I know 7Sage had explanation videos for LR but I can't see them anymore. Please help!!
Sometimes during sequencing games I find myself being able to brute force my way through them even though the more efficient way would be to split the game up into sub game boards, but often am able to finish the game within the suggested time or even way under. Should I focus on trying to understand the sub game boards or just keep doing what I've been doing?
Thanks!
Hey guys, I have recently immigrated to USA and I have done Bachelors (4 year) and Masters from India. I got my degrees evaluated from a NACES member agency and they have given my degree as equal to bachelors in USA as well as my Masters as Masters degree in USA. They gave me GPA A(3.93) in my bachelors and A(4.0) in my Masters. Then i came to know that my GPA would not be calculated as i am internationally educated. So, my concern is that will this thing effect me during my admission process? Will my admission to law school be entirely dependent on my LSAT score? Will i be considered as international or domestic students during my admission?
Please help if anyone has any information regarding this.
Thanks in advance.
