After receiving my august score which was must lower than anticipated I've had a hard time getting my groove back and am doing much worse on LR than before. what do I do I take the October test next weekend?

So I know that if one number is above and the other is below, ED provides the biggest boost.

But what about if one number is AT median and the other is below?

help can someone explain why this is B? It seems clear that the director did in fact infer that some others did like the movie, and its seems like he did fail to take into consideration the number of positive (i.e., 0) and negative (i.e., 10) responses received re: the movie reviews

I completely missed this! Does anybody have any notes/screencaps/information they can share from it? It would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

Best,

Jordan

Long story short: I'm looking for a time friendly solution to physically printing either problem sets or whole practice tests. For example, do you know of any way I could print a whole practice test with a click of a button that will only print the questions (no extra banners, texts, or other misc things like website banners) ?

Does anyone know why answer choice A is incorrect?

Hi, everyone,

Have trouble with this question. The correct answer choice C adds additional information ("climate fluctuations") which is not provided under the stimulus. Does it mean you can add additional information by guessing, however, this is not reliable technique? How to deal with this sort of questions?

Admin note: minor title edit; please use the format of "PT#.S#.Q# - [brief description]"

Could someone map out the lawgic on this problem? I could only make sense of the question from an intuitive process and not the diagramming. #help

The video explanation was pretty terrible for this one. He really brushes over why answer choice B is correct. Can someone elaborate? Surely the profits of the lightbulb are relevant to the argument that people should change the type of lightbulbs they use, right?

The question stem asks: "The reasoning in the journalist's argument is most vulnerable to criticism on the grounds that the argument fails to consider that..." and the correct answer, E, says the flaw is that those who donate might not be those who join the party, making the necessary 30% benchmark of support unreachable.

However, this would then SUPPORT the conclusion of the journalist, who says that an educational party is unviable in the long-run.

So, is it then possible to support a conclusion, but criticize a stimulus for failing to do the best possible job of constructing its conclusion (i.e. here we criticize the argument, but not the conclusion)? If anything, this feels like an assumption question.

Hopefully my question makes sense.

Thanks!

After reading the stimulus, I was wondering why the overall number of collisions didn't decline even after using headlights was made mandatory and I thought E explained the discrepancy. If it is true that the jurisdictions that have mandatory headlight laws have naturally low visibility, wouldn't that explain why the overall number of collisions didn't decrease?

As for answer choice C, is it suggesting that the reason the collision rate is lower for drivers that use headlights is not because of the headlights but because they are more careful drivers? I read LSAC's official explanation and am still confused about these two choices.

First discussion post!

Every single one of my jobs on my resume is intermittent employment. I was an actor and needed jobs that were flexible. My question is, how do I fill out the hours per week section? Jobs ranged from 0-50 hours a week depending on who needed work and my own availability. Is it bad to leave that section blank on the employment section? It looks too cluttered to add (0-xx hours a week) on all the jobs on my resume.

Has anyone found a good solution to this?

I don't feel too great about my understanding of each LR question type. Does anyone have any tips or other source of material that helped everything truly click for them? LG has been great through 7sage but it's challenging for me to stay locked in and focused during the videos for LR as he tends to either talk very fast, jumps from one thing to another, or makes a mistake and corrects himself. it all just makes the flow of retaining the information more challenging for me.

Got an email about the LSAT writing sample and was a bit confused so I hope someone can help. They repeatedly say the writing sample will be available to complete 8 days before testing day, so Oct 1. But HOW LONG is it available to complete after testing day?

I'm definitely not wasting precious time and energy on the writing sample before test day, but will be much less stressed after, so was hoping to complete it in the week after testing. But nowhere does it say how long you can do this! Anyone have any idea for me?

Thanks!

I want to begin studying for RC & was wondering if you guys thought 7sage's RC lessons were very beneficial or if I should use the Powerscore RC book that I have. RC is my worst section, so if anyone could provide me with their opinions on 7sage's RC material for the Course Curriculum that would be great. Thank you!

Hi everyone!

Thank you for how helpful you've all been during this process! So I finished the CC and now I have 45 days till the LSAT. I've gotten my score up a few points (from mid 150s diagnostic to high 150s low 160s now) and I know I won't be able to "maximize" my score since I've only committed a few months, but my goal score is low-mid 160s and my top choices are mid tier state schools that prioritize public interest work. So I was wondering, is 25 practice tests in 45ish days too many? I'd be committing roughly 4-5 hours to each test between the actual exam and review. I've been committing around 8 hours a day to preparation so I feel like it should be reasonable, but I am also very new to intense study and prep testing. I'd appreciate any advice you all could throw my way, thank you so much!

hey

Ive spoken to a lot of you thru dms and have even connected with some of you guys past that. I was wondering if anyone would be interested on getting on a zoom call w me and you guys can ask me general questions and maybe even I could go thru some questions to go thru my thought process

how many would b interested

and what time/date would work best

I called LSAC and they said they re-calculate GPA so it could differ from the one on my transcript.

I was wondering whether anyone has any insight on this, and on how to approach filling in the GPA if a law school asks for it (should it be the one on my transcript or the one in the LSAC report).

I am taking the November LSAT and I can't seem to get my score up on Reading Comprehension. I have improved on everything else but for some reason, Reading Comprehension is getting to me (probably the boring passages) any tips?

Hi everyone,

I am wondering if anyone has a helpful review that I can use for the "some/most/all" relationships.

Good example of this would be PT 33, Sec 3, Q 8.

Hi 7 sage,

Is the website currently under maintenance or some tech adjustment?

I tried different computer (even the one on my company), and it still lagged horribly.

So I took the LSAT in June for the first time and got a 165, CGPA is 3.76. I'm hoping to go to Boston College or Boston University. I slightly prefer BU, but would be perfectly happy with BC. I didn't plan on retaking because I was above both of BC's medians and not too far below BU's. However, the medians increased, so now BC is 165 instead of 164, and BU is 169 instead of 167. BU's GPA median actually lowered from 3.8 to 3.77 which is good for me, and I'm still above BC's GPA. I was hoping to apply by mid-late October but now am questioning if I should retake the LSAT in November. I think that I would still want to apply before then and tell them not to wait for my score, and then if I get a decision before then and get waitlisted I could send my new score (hopefully it's improved). I haven't studied at all since June but have plenty of clean PTs and I would have about 4 weeks to study. I know it also depends on if I think I can improve and all that, which I do think it's possible but obviously never know. I'd really appreciate any advice!

Hello! I'm currently working on my weak points of the LSAT and I am Drilling Single/Comparative passages. In anyone's experience with taking the LSAT already, how many passages would you recommend drilling per day? I am doing about 6-7 but i am not sure if that's too much. Any information would be appreciated!

Hey everyone,

First time LSAT taker here. I'm taking the October LSAT on 10/10 and am hoping to get some input on when I should take my final PT. I've sort of been slingshotting between the mid 160s and low 170s on my PTs and was hoping to be more consistently in the 170s for game day. However, with the time I have left, I'm just going to do the best I can to get my best possible score and retake if necessary.

I'm curious if any repeat takers should advise on how to spend my last week and a half. I intend to take a PT this Sunday at the same time as my actual test to simulate it as best as possible. However, I also kind of want to take a last, final PT on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. That said, many people have advised not to take any PTs in the last week leading up to the actual test.

Hoping people can share what worked for them and advise me on any tips that might help me maximize my score.

Good luck to everyone else taking the October test!
