Hi everyone, I applied to 6 schools and was accepted to my top choice school (UT) and another good in-state option (SMU). However, I have still not heard back from the other 4 schools (BC, Duke, Vandy, NW) and the deposit deadline for UT/SMU is April 14. I applied to all late December. As the deadline approaches, is it ever appropriate to reach out for an accelerated decision? I'm worried I will have to deposit without knowing results from other schools, and without being able to ask for scholarship reconsideration from UT or SMU. Does anyone have advice for this situation?

I am curious about general policy/sentiment regarding deferrals. Do schools generally view them favorably (especially this year with so many applicants) or unfavorably? I enjoy my current job and am somewhat ambivalent whether I go this year or next. Would they preserve my scholarship? Would there be a chance at increased scholarship if I just re-apply? @"Selene Steelman"

Hi all,

Based on the 4th paragraph, I wanna know how do you tell where the author's tone/ emphasis lies? Through the whole 4th paragraph, it seems to me that the author is simplyly reporting the critics' viewpoint. That is, the author sounds quite detached, IMO. I couldn't see any line or word which suggest author endorese or commit to either a critic or proponent.

Could you please share how do you see this paragraph? Thanks a lot.

My original goal was to score as high as possible on the LSAT and try to get into HYS Law; however, I have realized that it works better for my family if I have no loan to be repaid post-graduation. Thus, my goal still stands the same: Get as much high score as possible on the LSAT; yet, I am trying to go to a law school that pays me the most scholarship. I am wondering if any law school pays for the entire tuition and also if they pay for housing as well. Please speak about it if you know any details.

Thanks!

    I am looking for someone to study with or a group. I am better when working with someone else and unfortunately the study system this program has isn't doing any justice for me. Is anyone interested? if so, send me a message and I will create a group to start studying together.

    Hey, so I recently did this MSS question and I struggled to understand why A is the answer, could anyone help pls? I picked B cause I really didn't know what else to choose. I didn't like A cause it said a "comprehensive approach" but how do we know that a comprehensive approach could shrink the health care costs?

    Thank you :)

    Would it be best to continue taking the full tests that automatically have 2 LRs as practice tests for the new LSAT Flex with Experimental Part , or should we be switching out the fourth section to be either an extra LR, LG, or RC to better represent the random experimental part we will receive? I'm nervous about doing this second way, as then I will have to do more manual scoring and analytics.

    Hi, I am looking for a serious and consistent study partner in New York City to meet with at least once a week. I work full-time. I am available on weekday evenings and weekends. Please let me know if you are interested and we create a study plan.

    I have spent the last two and a half months going through the core curriculum and now that I have finished it, I feel like I have built a solid foundation of the test. I have a couple questions about the test, mainly the LG, and progressing with my studies.

    About LG:

    I have done some games prior to doing 7sage’s LG course, but they were all in PT40s-60s. I saw a couple misc games in those PTs and didn’t think they were too bad. However, I felt that some of the games I saw in PT1-35 were the most difficult games I’ve ever seen. Mainly because the misc games were so hard to diagram and it was frustrating to visualize it. I was under the assumption (because of what my friends told me) that the old LGs were easier than the new games, but the more I look into it people say the old LGs are more difficult and the new LSATs does not have some of those weird diagram games anymore from the 1990s-early 2000s. What’s the consensus on the older and newer LG games in terms of difficulty and diagramming?

    Also, I plan on foolproofing using Pacifico’s method(link for reference: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/2737) for PT1-35 so I can get a better feel for doing games. If anyone is familiar/did it with it, how many games did you do per week? Should I for example, start 5 on Monday, re-take on Tuesday, start a new 5 on Wednesday like one of the last comments on that thread said.

    Tips on moving forward:

    So, now I’m kind of stuck on what to do for the other sections right now as I foolproof LG. I committed myself for 1.5 months on the LR curriculum and when I finished it, I didn’t look at it until I finished the LG and RC section. But I think that break was beneficial for me anyway, so how should I progress into doing full sections from untimed to timed. I also picked up the loophole because I heard it’s great to supplement with the LR curriculum. I was wondering for anyone who did the same, how did you incorporate reading the Loophole to what you had already learned from 7sage? Mainly what I am asking is how should I set up my weekly schedule now for drilling? My targeted test date is June, so I have about 2.5 months and I have no obligations for anything else.

    Hi everyone, I just started prepping for the LSAT and plan on writing it twice. Which sections of the prep courses do you recommend I focus on to achieve the highest score? I will be writing this June and I plan on re-writing Oct. My diagnostic score was not that bad and to get accepted into my dream school I need a 158. I work full-time right now but will be taking all of next month off to study, any tips on self-study would be appreciated. T

    Hi yall,

    I've been studying since September for the April LSAT and I feel really frustratred. I first made the mistake of studying a Kaplan book, but then switched over to Khan Academy and LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim. I got 7sage in December and have been studying in this space ever since. I have gone over the lessons, learned each stimilus type, drilled tons of games, done everything that I thought was right and I'm still not increasing my score AT ALL from November. It's embarrassing and frustrating. Does anyone have any tips on how I can really improve?
