Hey! I just finished with core curriculum and was wondering what prep tests I should be focusing on? It's about 16 weeks left of studying. I'm a full-time student so probably could take 1-2 prep tests a week.
Hi all,
Any tips for getting better at rule diagramming?
Hi! I'm not sure if I'm doing something differently, but in the past, I was able to scroll over the icon that looks like a recycling symbol to see how I answered a question in the past, and when I answered that question. However, that option seems to have disappeared? Thanks!
Hi there,
Is the interface for the practice tests on 7sage the same as how it would be in the real exam? Just want to make sure it's similar so I can practice under close enough conditions like the real deal.
Thanks
Wondering if anyone here found the actual filling out and submitting of applications a problem. Personally I kept getting kicked out of the LSAC portal, which kept claiming I had several applications open. I didn’t realize how involved the process would be. I inferred that because we were paying LSAC to facilitate the process it would be somewhat seamless. I’m kicking myself because a couple of my applications were incomplete. Thank everyone. Best of luck in the cycle. Hope you get what you all want!
Hi everyone!
I searched for this question on the forums and had not found a topic, even though its marked as a difficult question (171 level). After review the AC is fairly obvious, but I am posting to help people that may be confused by this question, and if I say anything wrong, please correct me!
This question is a Necessary Assumption question, basically meaning that if the answer choice is not true, the argument totally falls apart.
A: Incorrect, this does not have to be true for the argument to stay together.
C Incorrect: Who cares about other arts?
D : Incorrect: It does not need to have increased for the argument to be ok, more shows with the same amount of people also works as an increase in public interest.
E: Incorrect: My AC during the test. This is incorrect because it does not matter what the intentions of the opera companies were when they established their companies. All the argument talks about is an explosion of public interest for opera, and that 45 companies founded in the last 30 years, is evidence for this. Assuming E is false, it does not destroy the argument.
Therefore the correct answer is B Which must 100% be true. If its not true, that at a minimum, 45 opera companies opened and ceased operations in the time period where the argument is saying public interest EXPLODED. Do you see the problem here? If all 45 of those founded companies went out of business in the same time period, can you really claim this to be the reason opera exploded in public interest?
Hi all!
I applied today for 50% additional time. But, there are a lot of things I feel weaken my request.
First, I was diagnosed really recently. My parents didn't really believe in learning disabilities, so I struggled a lot in school. It was after taking the LSAT in January I realized WOW, I am holding myself back here. So, I went to a psychiatrist. I was diagnosed with ADHD and anxiety disorder by two different psychiatrists. And let me tell you, this was a tough thing to do. The assessments were incredibly expensive and I'm not flush with cash. I say this to communicate I genuinely believe I need this accommodation to have an equal chance to do well on the test.
Additionally, I have taken the test twice. The first was in 2018. I canceled that test because I did so, so poorly given what I recognize now were symptoms. I kept studying. I took the test in January 2021 and got a 165, which was really, really low below my own abilities because I spent so much time trying to concentrate and dealing with my anxiety.
I highlighted in my statement of need how taking the LSAT led me to realize I had these problems and that's why I don't have a lot of history with my diagnosis.
This is a new kind of chance me, I suppose. Will i get approved despite a "good enough" score and a recent diagnosis?
Did anyone take look at this question, why is the answer not C. It states that price of the reserve is set high enough to yield profit. That means that the seller will make profit on the item , hence the reserve price is needed for desirable item. Any thoughts?
Admin Note: Edited title. Please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of question"
I noticed the highlighting functionalities on the prep tests offered on this site... i'm wondering if the format for taking the actual exam virtually is the same presented on this site or if I should stay away from utilizing the tools so as to not expect them on test date.
Let me know and I wish you all luck on your endeavors!!! :)
I couldn't find which pt it was, plz help me review it
It was a sequencing game, and it was about a store with consecutive aisles from 1-9 and finding the order of them.
Help me..!!
Hello everyone! I just started studying Jan 2022. In the mid 150s now. I haven't heard back from the other discords/study groups so far in the forum so might as well create a new one. I promise to add everyone who responds to this message. Please check your inbox.
Also, I am down to merge or join with anyone if there is already a solid group running.
The intention for this group:
Study strategies
Accountability
Memes to stay sane
Good vibes/no trolls
Also open to if there are any better services other than discord? Maybe facebook page? What are the kids using these days?

Does anybody know roughly what percentage of mature students(people in early to mid 30s) T14 schools accept?
Hello all, I know there are a few posts on this topic but none of them quenched my confusion hence this post.
I have a few questions regarding the calculation of my test score (PT, real test, etc.).
Why is the raw score out of 101 when only 3 sections are graded?
Is the experimental section always the repeated section? (e.g. 1RC, 1LR, 2LG = 1LG will be ungraded)
Does the scoring mechanism enabled in the 7sage "Flex Score Converter" (https://classic.7sage.com/lsat-flex-score-converter) apply to current LSAT tests (2022)? Curious as LSAC does not display current tests as "LSAT Flex", just "LSAT".
I'm really confused about the concept of "Flex" so I want to present a possible scenario:
Let's say I scored -5 RC, -0 LG, -8 LR in a 4 section PT. However there were 2 LRs (both -4) so I excluded one section by myself to arrive at a total of -5 RC, -0 LG and -4 LR. Plugged numbers into the "Flex Converter", did not tick the "2 LR sections" button, selected the correct PT number and received a 172. Disregarding the different curves for each test, would an LSAT test sometime in 2022 be scored the same way?
Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you.
Hi all, I was wondering if anyone would want to join a study group with me to prepare for the June 2022 exam. Specifically, if you're ADHD/ND it would be great if we could keep each other accountable and share tips as to what works for our brains! I'd like to take 1-2 tests a week and review them together, and I'm PTing high 160s right now :) DM me or reply to this thread if you're interested!
was it beneficial to use 7sage and invest In a tutor ? or did using 7sage independently get you to the score you desired ?
Im looking to take early/middle year LSAT in 2023! Anyone want to work together to stay on track?
Just wondering if there is anyone in the same boat. I have a super demanding job that can easily take up 60 hours in a week (and frequently does). I'm trying to study at least 20 hrs a week, mostly doing nights and weekends. Is that a recipe for burnout or does it sound sustainable? Planning to study for 4 months!
I’m looking for a RC tutor who can help me drastically improve my RC score and who has helped others go from getting 8-10 questions correct to 20+ correct. Someone who is great at breaking down why a question is correct and why other answers are incorrect. I know there’s a a specific way to attack questions types on RC but I haven’t figured it out. Reading for structure isn’t a problem for me. I understand grabbing the main point, author viewpoint, and whether the author disagrees/agrees with a certain point. My main problem is I tend to attack questions all the same in RC and just like LR, each question cannot and shouldn’t be attacked the same way and requires different ways of attack. Message me if you’re able to help.
Hey guys, I am looking for a tutor that's not going to break my pocket. If you are someone one or know someone, please DM thank you.
Hi guys,
I'm having a hard time being able to identify game types and knowing what game board setup to use. I recently just started studying for the logic game section and i'm guessing maybe the only way to learn this is it with practice/experience BUT, I'd like to know if anyone else had trouble with this as well and if any particular tips helped with identifying the game type and board setup.
To give some backstory: I have taken the LSAT last month and got a 133. I know not the greatest but I’m wanting to improve. I just took PT 84 and got the exact same score. I have just started practicing again every day for 2.5-3 hrs a day. I am using a mix of 7Sage Study Plan/Course and Khan Academy for drills.
If anyone has any other studying techniques that might help me improve more or helpful tips I am interested in anything.
I am wondering if I am considered a URM. I am an Asian immigrant, of an indigenous ethnic minority in my home country. I've heard that Asians are typically not considered URM, and since the 509 does not specify on ethnicity and indigenous status for students (of groups outside of the Americas), I would assume this means I won't be considered by schools as URM. Does anyone with a background similar to mine have any experience on this in the admissions process? Thanks in advance!
Update: If anyone else was wondering also, based on the questions about ethnicity LSAC asked me (the region where I'm from wasn't even listed... so I just chose Asian Other and my other race), plus based on y'all's feedback, seems like no.
Hi,
I have been taking PTs and not simulating Flex because I want to practice getting through 4 sections. How predictive of my actual test day scores are these scores given that they are taking the 2 LR sections into account? Is there a score conversion chart anywhere?
