Hello. If I have a firm grasp on LR before starting my subscription, what do I do once I purchase? Do I just create problem sets of 30?

holding accountability and improving score... hoping for over 160

Since LSAC is still administering the test in a digital format some of JY's tips and tricks that are integrated into the CC, that work great for a paper version of the test, do not translate well to the current format.

The main example I have in mind is when a question stem includes the word except in it. JY tells us to circle the four 'right' answers and bubble in the one 'wrong' answer on the answer sheet. This idea inside the digital test does not translate into high efficiency and clarity like it does on paper.

So, digital LSAT takers, studiers, and teachers what tips and tricks do you have that work particularly well for the digital format of the LSAT?

I know the actual LSAT right now is 4 sections (1 of them being experimental). I'm a bit confused though - if we take a 4 section preptest on 7Sage, we get a score that takes into account ALL sections. But the actual LSAT only scores us based on 3 sections right? Since one of them is experimental?

Am having trouble with this question - could someone let me know if I'm thinking about the stimulus (and ACs) correctly?

Stim:

P1: When old trees die, the decomposition releases their stored CO2

P2: Harvesting old trees makes more room for young trees (who can absorb more CO2 than old trees)

C: Harvesting old trees for manufacturing things would reduce CO2 (and therefore we'd avoid the whole decomposing issue?)

My thoughts: Okay, that seems like it makes relative sense. There's an assumption there that the CO2 release by decomposed old trees would be offset by the young trees that can absorb more CO2.

ACs:

A - Animal species? Irrelevant.

B - At first I immediately eliminated this AC because it just didn't seem to make any sense. After more reading, it seems like okay, if the harvested old trees were manufactured into products that would decompose super quickly, we could still run into the CO2 decomposition issue.

C - This was the AC I originally picked, thinking that since a young tree contains 10 CO2 vs an old tree that contains 40 CO2, then clearly the young tree can't offset the decomposition of an old tree. But I think this AC is actually irrelevant because of course a young tree at a snapshot would contain less CO2 than an old tree would - but this seems to attack P2?

D - Irrelevant, dont need to know where most of the CO2 in a forest comes from.

E - I feel like this AC is trying to get us to attack P2 in a similar way C is, but we'd have to also assume that size of trees has some sort of correlation with CO2 absorption.

So I just started training for the LSAT and I am only focusing on the Logic Games for the next couple weeks. Is it smart to take a single problem set in under 9 minutes, then review what I got wrong through the explanation videos? Or should I really challenge myself by taking more than game per set?

Guys i'm honestly embarrassed to ask this question because I should know this by now but... is physical scratch paper allowed for use in LG during the current digital lsat? or in any other section?

Hi everyone,

On Thursday, February 10, at 9:00 PM ET, the 7Sage Tutoring Team will host a webinar about "Need for Speed."

You’ll get a chance to ask your questions at the end.

:warning: You’ll have to register for this webinar in advance.

:cookie: After the webinar, we’ll award one attendee with a free hour of LSAT tutoring. We'll pick the winner by lottery.

:warning: The webinar will be recorded, and we may post it on our site or on YouTube. We may also share the audio on our podcast.

→ Please register for the webinar here:

https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_gfYGYGidSSK8oyefn8jK5Q

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

If you want to ask a question, you should connect via a computer instead of calling in. We also recommend that you join the webinar a few minutes early and test your microphone.

It seems this current cycle is not as hectic as the past one, but still a difficult one! I submitted my applications at end of November/beginning of December, and I’m still waiting to hear back from most schools. Would anyone be interested in having a (discord) group to discuss things we (could or should) do post application? Let me know!

Originally got this question wrong (picked E), but I think I understand why C is right - could someone confirm my thinking?

Stim:

P: Infant death rates have declined historically

C: But that doesn't necessarily mean the babies currently born are actually healthier now.

Hm, why is that? Is it that they are more likely to live but are still really weak when they're born?

ACs:

A - We're not focused on the rates for infant mortality. The stim already addresses some localities where the rates have increased.

B - This explains why 51%+ of the infants who are already part of that mortality rate died, but doesn't explain why the infants who survived aren't necessarily healthier.

C - Originally I eliminated this AC because I misunderstood the stimulus when it came to "infant mortality" and what actually meant to be part of that rate. But if the US is developing awesome tech that is able to keep babies alive, then that explains why babies are dying are lower rates - we're able to save them better, but nothing's really changed in their unhealthy state during birth.

D - Again, not focused on infant mortality rates

E - Originally picked this one because C just didn't click for me, so I tried to justify that E introduced some sort of alternative cause as to why they're not as healthy. But this has one huge issue: The stim is talking about babies at BIRTH and this AC is talking about babies who grow into toddlers, young kids, etc.

My laptop screen is small and the built-in webcam/mic is unreliable, so I called and spoke with someone at LSAC this morning to see if an external monitor connected with an HDMI cable to my closed laptop would be alright. They said no, and that my test would be flagged if I used an external monitor and a bluetooth webcam.

The built-in webcam/mic is unreliable because it may randomly turn-off (happens on Zoom occasionally). I guess I can request an LSAC tablet, but does anyone have any thoughts or advice?

Long story short I may need to consider the 5 attempts within 5 years limit and am writing up the appeal now.

The exam I am looking to appeal is a canceled score because I couldn't perform that day due to a medical episode, but it was too late to withdraw because the 24 hour period had passed.

Would love someone to give it a once over if they have time!

Is it possible to blind review a prep test that I took after I falsely stated that I blind reviewed it because I wanted to see what my score was right away? Or can I not go back and blind review it? Thanks! (I think it was probably a stupid idea not to blind review before seeing my score, but I was too impatient...)

Hi Everyone, I created a general LSAT discord if anyone is interested in joining.

https://discord.gg/gNHK93Nn

Hey everyone,

I'v read here that some people send in their applications in order to meet the deadline, but before receiving their LSAT score. Is this possible? Will it hurt my chances in getting in? How do I make sure that they know not to make a decision before they receive my score? Will I even be able to submit the application without the score?

Pleased Advise

For me, both are to support the argument.

But, it’s to hard to distinguish how to approach to each.

Is there anyone who can explain how to approach to each Q?

Thanks!

On a bunch of WL's and retaking in April. Looking for a small group to try and squeeze out some points for this WL cycle.

Looking to chat with anyone who has had a positive experience appealing the 5 attempts within 5 years policy. :)

If someone updated to current application cycle in their CRS recently 1 week ago, then how long after can they expect CRS application fee-waivers from T14? How long does it take for CRS fee-waiver to trigger?

I mistakenly didn't update CRS app cycle until last week, and plan to apply to a few schools in T14 that are known to give out fee-waiver from CRS. Should one hold out for waiver or at this late in the cycle CRS doesn't do it?

Any thoughts? I applied in September, schools median, GPA above median. They started reviewing my application 11/04/21, official review time for the school is between 8 and 12 weeks. I am super concerned because I have a feeling that no response for that long means I am essentially being waitlisted. This is very disappointing considering median's match and GPA being above, plus a pretty impressive resume. Share your stories, thoughts, ideas...

Hello, I wonder if anyone could help me to locate a LR question, which I guess I came across while I was doing core curriculum or PTs in 50s.

The question is about a principle labeling a carrot as "nonfat":

If we are to label an actually nonfat food like a carrot as "nonfat", it should be mistakenly believed to be a fatty food.

Also, if people mistakenly believe a nonfat food as a fat food and if that nonfat food is labeled as nonfat food, it may be labeled as "nonfat".

I wish I could give you more information about the question.. or is there any way to filter out prep questions using a keyword?

PT 84 S4 Q6 has the answer choices mixed up and incorrectly marks the correct answer as wrong. The answers are presented as "A - 2 B- 3 C- 4 D- 5 E- 6" when you take it but the video shows it as "A- 3 B- 4 C-5 D- 6 E- 7". The video says 4 is the correct answer and thus B is correct but this is not what the test when taken shows and thus it marks the correct answer of 4 wrong when you chose C to indicate 4.
