as you guys move through the problem sets in the CC do you do them timed, blind review, then check? or do you do them all untimed? just trying to figure out the most beneficial strategy. Thanks

Hi, I would appreciate it if someone could explain how "that style of argumentation" in the third sentence refers to "impugning the motives" instead of "taken a partisan stance". I thought "a partisan stance" can be said as a style of argumentation.

Thank you for the help.

So I have already finished The Lsat Trainer and took a few PTs. I just got 7sage on April 2, and I have access to it till August 2. I am taking the LSAT in June AND August. However, I don't know if I will have time to get through the entire 7sage core curriculum and take a bunch of practice tests. What should I do? Is it better to make sure i do the full 200+ hours of full curriculum and take less PTs, or are PTs/blind review more effective than the lessons?

Hello all, I just recently took my 1st lsat and I am preparing for June for a retake and I am aiming for 160+ From the low 150s and I wanted to know what is a good study schedule after the CC , should I focus on one section for a long time by doing timed sections and drills then move on to another or should I rotate sections in with PTs... I want to study smarter this go around and any tips are welcomed

Hey everyone! I was wondering what everybody's opinion was on this question. I actually studied for about 3 weeks in Jan because I thought I was going to take the April LSAT, then had a really long break in between because of school + work and switched to the June LSAT. My diagnostic had a 151, and I am aiming big (175)- I would be a super splitter (3.15) so it's a need for the schools I am going for. I have the LSAT Trainer book, the Powerscore books, and am supplementing Khan Academy (currently doing 1-2 hours a day for the past week or so when I started back up).

I just took my first official test this morning and I have doubts about how well I did. I felt less confident with my test performance today than on a typical PT but maybe that is normal.

I started with a 152 diagnostic on Feb 1 and have spent roughly 4+ hours studying each day since. I have taken roughly 12 PT with my last 5 averaging to a 168 (scored between 167-170 on all 5 with BR typically a point higher with one exception when I scored 176 on BR after a 170 during timed conditions). My ultimate goal is 170+. Recently I've gone -0 on LG, between 2-5 n LR and 3-6 on RC. I felt today I was definitely closer to the lower end (5-6+ wrong) on both LR and RC.

For those who have taken the test multiple times: did you continue studying right after your latest official attempt or did you take time off between the test and when your official score was released before reevaluating/resuming your study schedule?

I started with Mike Kim's LSAT trainer for one month and then moved to 7 sage for about six weeks. I was considering purchasing the power score bible for LR and then also reviewing the basic curriculum in 7sage rather than jumping right back into PT and problem sets but I am open to other's opinions/experiences.

Does anyone recommend any applications that can help with reducing RAM? Also, if RAM is slightly over (1-2%), would that significantly impact LSAT Flex? Thanks!

I am too tempted to look at my score after each practice test to do blind review via the 7Sage interface (I still do it, but not in the streamlined and convenient way that 7Sage offers). Can you please add the ability to see your score (or at least the option to do so) before doing "blind review?" Thanks!

Hello! I hope everyone's doing fine with LSAT. I'm taking LSAT-flex in coming days. I'm wondering whether we can use ctrl+F during LSAT-flex (cuz I just spent one whole minute on one RC question trying to spot where one person's name was mentioned lol). I heard that they aren't disabling this function, but do they consider the use of this function as cheating?

Some customers prefer vanilla to chocolate and no customer has no preference in the matter. Therefore, most customers prefer chocolate.

Most customers order chocolate ice cream, and most customers get toppings. All customers who get toppings get a free hat. So, some people who order chocolate ice cream get a free hat.

Everyone who orders a sundae gets offered a free extra cherry, and most people say yes to the free extra cherry. Some people who order the banana split get offered a free extra cherry, and less than half of those people say yes. Therefore, more customers get a free cherry with a sundae than they do with a banana split.

Everyone who orders a sundae gets offered a free extra cherry, and most people say yes to the free extra cherry. Some people who order the banana split get offered a free extra cherry, and less than half of those people say yes. So, people who order a sundae are more likely to say yes to a free extra cherry than are people who order a banana split.

Overall, I'm having difficulty mapping out the solutions with some, most, all... Thank you very much for your help in advance!

Hello all, I applied for about 10 schools back in January and beginning of February as I was thinking I needed to get on it. I only applied to schools where I was at their median LSAT or better. My GPA is over the 75th. I am in Canada, so not sure if that makes a difference. I have only received 3 acceptances so far, and 1 rejection from a school that I was WAY over there medians (it was my 1st choice school so pretty disappointed)....is anyone else waiting for months without hearing back from the law schools they applied to? I have checked with a few schools and they replied back that they are still reviewing applications....but wondering if this experience is unique to me, or are others waiting 8+ weeks to hear back.

And...has anyone had any luck on appealing and renegotiating scholarships this year?

The screen on my MacBook Air is small. I am planning on hooking up my 27-inch monitor to the MacBook Air, which I think will help me with Reading Comprehension, and really every aspect of the test, having the larger screen size and larger font. I'm guessing this is not cut and dry as far as the rules, but I don't see anything in the rules that specifically prohibits using an external monitor to take the test. Any thoughts? It will be the MacBook Air, and the 27-inch monitor on my desk (along with the other materials).

Hello fellow 7sagers,

I was wondering, if anyone was interested in forming a social/network/support group. The purpose of the group talk about LSAT, law school and even non-law school related topic. We can arrange a time to host each other maybe bi-weekly, monthly, or whenever possible via zoom. Am also hoping that this group will support us through our legal career.

I wish everyone the very best in their legal journey.

Here is the link to the group

You're invited to my new group 'LSAT Social/Network/Support Group' on GroupMe.

I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I'm at that 160s hump. I'm ranging from anywhere between 160-mid160s. I can't seem to get passed it. I'm around 1-3 LG, 2-5 RC, and 6-8 LR!!! The LR section is really dragging me down. I'm thinking about re-reading The Loophole. I've already done 7sage's core curriculum. I've even read Mike Kim's book and the PowerScore LR Bible. Does anyone have any other suggestions for improving on the LR?

Hi all,

I'm new to 7sage. I've been looking at the section on Blind Review and I can't seem to find an answer to this (in the forum either) but maybe it's just because I haven't yet taken a PT via 7sage, only through the LSAC Lawhub.

With LSAC, once you complete a PT your score and right/wrong answers show up automatically. If you go back through to circle (or in this case "flag") your unsure answers, it will show the correct answer in a box. I gather from the videos that this will bias me towards those answer and will therefore be unhelpful.

When you take PTs via the 7sage interface, is here an extra step between finishing your test and actually revealing all the answers? Is this built in so you can do that blind review step?

Thanks in advance!

Giulia

are you able to retake a practice test? if so, how? I don't see the option #help

A

I've seen powerscore discussions that say control F is still allowed but couldn't find it in the official rules.

Ah spring... a time of rebirth and renewal and COPIOUS amounts of tree pollen in Va. Allergy symptoms are attacking and I’m not clear headed for tomorrow’s exam at all. Can I do a score preview or switch it to June or is it too late?!

[...] connection problem? There is a three day window for the scheduling of exams. Will they hear problems and allow retakes under certain circumstances?

Might be helpful in the LG section.

Maybe it's just me but also my honest feedback having been a 7sage student for months now. Some of these explanation videos can be frustrating. It assumes I have the same mindset, thinking or approach to J.Y. and doesn't even address remaining answer choices. "This answer is obviously wrong;" "Answer E is just crazy;" "once you figure it out C becomes obvious;" "there's no need to go over the other answers."

I mean they (wrong answer choice) clearly aren't that obvious if I chose it for my final answer.

You sure the answer is crazy? Cuz I was convinced it was the right answer lol.

It would be great, (especially) for LR if we get explanations as to why the wrong answers are wrong. For some of us, they may not be as obvious.

So I am highly considering UCI law due to generous scholarship and their overall ABA reports. Originally, I was on the fence about the school because it's relatively new... However, it does seem like they have been performing well overall especially for being such a young law school. I will admit that their recent drop in rankings is concerning to me. Are there any current UCI students I can talk to here or can shed some light on their drop in rankings? I know rankings aren't everything but I am curious as to why they dropped so much. Of course, any and all opinions are welcome whether you go to UCI or not. Just need some help deciding and getting some overall insight since it's seems like a top contender for me right now. I am still waiting to hear back from a couple more schools and am currently trying to get off a waitlist at another school, but definitely considering UCI. I would love to get some details on their overall law school system and administration as well. Thanks!

For context, I am not big law or bust. Not PI either. I'm interested in IP/Patent law or healthcare/ medical malpractice law so far (still fluid. Figured I would find out what I like in law school). Graduated with a science degree and also plan on practicing in CA

I'm unable to select problem sets with the new function. Help

I've been studying for about a year and RC has always been my worst section (currently I average around -6). I've been mainly studying by myself but I feel like I could use some extra RC help. I'm wondering if anyone has tried Graeme Blake's (LSAT Hacks) mastery seminars, particularly the one on RC. It's 200$ so I'm a bit hesitant.
