So I picked C the first time around and I wanted to know if this would have been the correct answer if the stimulus had concluded that the government's decision to limit the nuclear power plant's liability in case of a nuclear accident was an unwise decision because the financial security of the operators of these nuclear power plants is dependent on the plants being safe (b/c if they weren't, then they would go broke)

And why would the government choose to help nuclear power plants in this way? I thought the decision to limit financial liability was the government admitting the nuclear power plants weren't safe...but that's wrong, according to the video.

Hello everyone,

I'm looking to create a group chat (either via iMessage or Discord chat) to form a study group for highly motivated, and actively studying individuals looking to take the October 2021 exam or the November 2021 exam.

I would be looking to meet realistically at least twice a week to try and hammer out some hard questions and strategies.

Currently I am PT'ing in the mid 160 range, but looking to get to the 170 range by October's exam.

Everyone regardless of current PT score is invited, that being said this group will be for those looking to shoot for the 170 score range.

Please leave a comment or message me privately if interested.

Thank you.

help, what do I do if I do not have good teachers to ask for letters of rec for my application ?

I recently realized that LSAC takes into account your grades from all institutions when calculating your GPA.

A little about me... I took several dual credit classes in high school and transferred to a different school after my freshman year. Although I did not do poorly in the dual credits or my freshman year, I did not get a 4.0. I graduated from my degree issuing institution with a 4.0. My LSAC GPA is predicted to be around a 3.78.

All that being said, I understand that I cannot omit my grades from high school and my transfer school. Would it be worthwhile to write an addendum with my application showing that I graduated with a 4.0 from my degree issuing school?

.I really do want to attend this school, but I can't go through with it If I will take on $200k+ debt for it. Biglaw is something I'm considering as well.

Are multiple colored highlighters allowed on the LSAT?

Should we be practicing with a 4th section to help us prepare for August test?

Any advice on perfecting RC? Currently pt'ing around -3,-4.

I just got back my June flex score today (since I delayed completing the writing sample) and am unsure whether to keep or cancel my score. This is my first LSAT take. I got a 156 and while it is within the range of how I've scored leading up to the test, albeit on the very low end, I was hoping to score at least in the low 160s since I have been scoring there, my last two PTs leading up to the June flex were both 163. I will definitely be retaking as I cannot apply with this score, but not sure at this point whether keeping it on file is worse or a cancel is.

hey guys,

sorry for asking but I am having doubts about my abilities on the lsat. I am scheduled to perform in august but I am thinking of changing it to October I just want to know what is the deadline/ last day that I can change it. I know I have to pay a fee for it which sucks but I wanted to know if anyone has any information on this. I was thinking of changing it 2 weeks before the exam/ giving myself more time to improve. This exam has sucked the soul out of me.

About how long, on average, should someone study for the LSAT before taking the real test? Or, does it depend on how ready I feel via target scores on the practice tests?

Hi guys, I'm taking the test in August and live in NYC. I won't be able to take the test at home because I don't have a quiet place to do it. Wondering where NYC residents, if you have rented a place for lsat in this past year, have successfully (no wifi failure, not noisy, etc) completed this test at? Did you go somewhere outside of the city or just really far out in Queens, Bronx, or Brooklyn? Thanks!

Hoping to crowd-source resources. I'm fairly comfortable if I can diagram a sentence but am trying to slowly wean myself off this time-consuming method. Anyone have great LR problems, drills, exercises that have helped you with conditional language you'd like to share?

Where I am at:

Thanks much in advance! I'll try to pull up the LR questions I've saved to share as well.

What was that "flip of a switch" moment or piece of advice that dramatically changed your perspective of the LSAT or of how you go about your LSAT study?

I'm currently in the low 160s, looking to improve my RC performance. I'm looking for a RC Drilling partner to help practice active reading and other good RC habits:

Familiar with the test content (question types, strategies, etc.)

Reliable: show up on time and communicate if your plan changes

Comfortable with tackling the harder RC passages (4-5 stars)

Available to drill (via Zoom) at least once a week in at least one of the following time frames: 7-9am EST or 5-8pm EST (M-F); after 5pm EST on Sat or Sun

No prior preparation needed. We will:

Please message me your availability to study (date/day/time), some facts about your LSAT journey (current level, how long you've been studying, your goal, etc.) and your email.

I will send an invite and we'll conquer RC from there!

Hi guys!

I’m super stressed because the August test is 6 weeks away and I have barely improved my diagnostic scores of LR and RC. I’m shooting for a 160-165 but averaging a 153-155 currently.

I’m great at LG with an average of 4-6 wrong

but RC is my biggest weakness with my most recent being -14 wrong and LR most recent being -10.

My diagnostic was -15 RC, -14 LG, and -13/-16 LR.

So minimal improvement. But I just need more of a boost.

Untimed my best RC section was -7 and my best LR was -6. But I don’t know I’m just super stressed, please help!

I’ve tried different computers and different wifi and it is soooo slow.

I'm not at all understanding the answer to this question. As far as I can tell, none of the answer choices seem to be even somewhat related to voter reactions except choice D.

D creates a situation wherein public perception is "Politicians in scandals should be punished, but only if their opposition is not as bad". This would align with the voting preferences expressed.

E, the "correct" answer, creates a situation wherein parties should be criticized instead of incumbents when we know it is more the party's fault. This doesn't seem remotely correct, however, because the question itself makes no effort to explain "fault" as an impact on voter preferences, nor does it reflect voter preferences at all - reelecting the incumbant does not punish their party at all.

Help?

Hey everyone! I am looking to score in the high 150s-low 160s for the November exam. I have been with 7sage for about a month now. If anyone is in a study group or would be able to tutor me I would appreciate it!

Hello! I am looking for a tutor to meet with a few times before I take the August test. I am looking to improve my score by 3-5 points at least before August exam.

I graduated undergrad in 2016. I contacted my 2 closest professors for recommendation letters and they are willing to write them, but I am worried I need more recent references. I am struggling to come up with a third reference, my former work supervisors that I interacted with on a daily basis neither know me on a personal level nor have the best command of the English language. I moved to a new city just when Covid started so I had no chance to get involved in a community organization outside of work.

Does anyone here keep an error log and if so do you use a notebook or on the computer? Im trying to figure out a way to create an error log on paper that's easy to use/helpful so if anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it!

Pretty much what the title asks.

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for a study partner for the August LSAT.

I'm averaging a 168 on PTs but hoping to score 170+ on the August LSAT. I plan on studying full-time for the next month, so I have a very flexible schedule. I'm hoping to work with someone who can commit to a consistent study schedule-- ideally I'd love to have a partner who can blind review/talk through challenging questions with me for an hour or so everyday. And I think it'd be super motivating if they shared my goal of breaking into (at least) the low 170s.

Please DM me if you're interested!

Hey I'm working on PrepTest 33 S4 G1Q5 (among others) and I keep having issues with complicated question formats.

The general version of the wording that most trips me up is "Which of the following must be true EXCEPT" and an answers like "_____ is not 4". Individually I can deal with these, like when I have an "EXCEPT" question or negative answer choice, but together I keep going in circles.

Are there any steps I should be during to answer these questions without spending 3+ min on them?

For reference, I get -2ish on LG so I am focused on fine tuning, so skipping is something I want to avoid at this point..

Thank you in advance!
