I am having a hard time understanding why 'D' is the correct answer choice. I initially chose 'A' as my answer, yet obviously, this was incorrect. I was hoping someone could break it down for me and explain why 'D' is correct and why 'A' is incorrect. Thank you in advance

Please explain how the correct answer was determined.

I am 28 years old and a full time nurse. I plan to only apply to part time night programs for law school for fall of 2023. My plan right now is to try and have a baby before I start year 1. I am aware it can take a long time to get pregnant but ideally the baby would be anywhere from 8 to 3 months old before classes start. I would be able to take advantage of my maternity leave with my current job and my phenomenal health insurance. While in school I would hire a babysitter 4-5 hours a day so I can exclusively study but the baby wouldn't have to leave the house and go to daycare. I would be home for emergencies just studying in my office. My goals for doing this would be to be able to have a child almost in school by the time I am an associate (Part time programs take 4 years). I would not have to worry about infant care and being a brand new attorney with demanding partners/clients ect and working a grueling day time schedule.

My other options are pushing back my pregnancy after year one and having a baby in the summer hopefully in-between semesters. The downside is not having maternity leave or dual insurances.

Has anyone on this forum had a baby prior to year 1 and had success pairing this with a part time program? Or is this absolutely insane even with a part time night program?

I should also mention I have a super supportive husband who works a very reliable 8-4 job who would be the primary caregiver while I am in class in the evening.

I just submitted my documentation for the LSAT waiver and is currently conditionally approved. I know I can register the test and CAS without having to pay, but has anyone gotten access to the 1-year Law Hub prep plus? Would it also be possible to get the 7 sage discount without the LSAT fee waiver be officially approved? (I’m willing to pay the fee in full shall my Lsat fee waiver be rejected later).

UPDATE: thank you all for answering! I got mine approved the second day and got both Prep Plus invitation link and 7Sage fee waiver the next day!

Does anyone know approximately what the score breakdown would be for PT 90 if you included the experimental LR as the fourth section? I took it as a practice for the June exam but the scores are all shown as a flex.

My former tutor showed me how to make a wrong answer journal using Word, but I am wondering if anyone has a wrong answer journal in Excel. If yes, can anyone send me a file just so that I can see how you are creating the document itself?

Hello everyone! If you're taking the LSAT in September of 2022 and in need of a study group, comment on this post!

Hi there! I am just getting started with my LSAT studying and I've been finding the quizzes super helpful to build my foundational knowledge. I like to take detailed notes on my answers, but I find clicking "Print This" for each page cumbersome. Is there a PDF file somewhere with all these questions? Or am I forced to make friends with the "Print This" button. Thanks!

Hello 7Sage Community,

I am returning to 7Sage with a heavy heart after an unsuccessful attempt at the 2022 admission cycle up here in Canada. I did not meet my goal for the LSAT of scoring a 160+ and only achieved a 155 on the January 2022 exam. Unfortunately my LSAT score along with my ok GPA (3.75) was not enough to get into 5/8 schools I applied for. I am on the wait list for 1 school (unlikely to be offered a spot based on my position on the list) and waiting to hear from the last 2. I am not hopeful based on the fact that I haven't heard anything by the middle of May from those 2 schools and starting to come to terms with the fact that I need to start preparing again for the 2023 cycle. I had stopped studying since the January exam and was hoping I wouldn't have to return to it... but here we are.

My Study Journey:

My first cold PT before studying was a 149 and after 500-600 hours of study across about 5 months I only improved to a 155. I completed the 7Sage core curriculum and then began taking full PT's under timed conditions, followed by blind review. My best section is LR where I have gotten as high as -6 with an average of -8. My next best section is RC where I have gotten as high as -6 with an average of -10. My worst section is LG (I was awful to start), I am a very visual person and struggle under the time constraints. My best score in an LG section is -9 and my average is -13. I was focusing especially hard on LG in the last month prior to Jan 2022 exam and have completed almost every game in PT's 1-35 between 2-4 times as well as some games in the later exams. I almost got to the point of enjoying the games, much more so then when I first started studying. I am not quite to the level of enjoying them and still fear this section the most, however my understanding is that this is where most people can make the largest score improvement. I am hopeful that a decent improvement is still possible for my LG score in particular.

My 2 main questions after that long winded opening are:

What is the best way to get back into studying again? Would people recommend running through the full core curriculum again, or focus on weak areas? Or jump back into problem sets and then full PT's?

Are there any low-cost/free tutoring services that anyone is aware of? I have done some googling but only found courses (similar to 7Sages's) charging hundreds per hour or thousands for a package which is really tough/impossible to swing for me financially at the moment. Not sure if anyone has any good resources/ideas or if a study group is the next best option without further overloading my credit card lol.

My goal is still to score over 160 so I would really appreciate any insights that people have regarding my situation and how to add at least 5 points to my score. I have always found the 7Sage community to be very helpful and would love to hear any advice that people might have.

Thanks in Advance!

So, I just finished the MC/MSS section of the program. It seems I am still struggling with it here and there. With it being complete, I am reviewing notes trying to figure out how to do it faster and better, but obviously I have already been exposed to the questions in the course. Outside of the actual practice tests, is there another way I can study those sections independent of the whole test to hopefully gain a mastery of it?

Why is the correct answer D? As opposed to E, I can understand that no where in the text does it show that in order for a consumer to purchase the merchandise, they must have the ability to verify any and all claims regarding it. Yet, for choice D, I am having a hard time understanding why there would be a contradiction made.

This is the question I found in PT 19 section 1, third game.

If F is assigned to b2, G is assigned to b2.

If V is assigned to b1, W is assigned to b2.

Does it mean that if F is in b1, G can be b2 or b1?

Does it mean that V is in b2, W can be in b1 or b2?

I follow the logic F b2 -> G b2, but not the opposite direction, so G can be in any position when F is in b1.

I hope it is correct.

Hi everyone,

LSAC provided the following updates today:

Registration is now open for all 2022-2023 LSAT Administrations

As of 7:30 a.m. ET today, May 12, registration is open for all 2022-2023 LSAT administrations, starting with the August 2022 LSAT through the June 2023 LSAT. There will be four administrations in the summer/fall period, and four test administrations in winter/spring. LSAC has aligned the test administrations so that score release dates fall before the registration deadline for the second subsequent test. This was done to ensure that test takers who may wish to re-test will be able to see their results before deciding to register for a future test.

Pricing for 2022-2023 cycle

To address the rising costs associated with administering the test, the fee for the LSAT will be $215 for the 2022-2023 cycle. The test date change fee will move from $125 to $135, and the score audit fee will move from $125 to $150. All other fees remain the same.

LSAC’s expanded fee waiver program

LSAC has expanded its fee waiver program to make more people eligible and added a new tier for individuals who don’t qualify for the full fee waiver but still need some assistance. These changes have enabled more candidates to qualify for our fee waivers.

Under the expanded program, independent individuals earning less than 250% of the federal poverty guidelines may be eligible for the Tier 1 fee waiver, which provides the following services for free: two LSAT tests, Credential Assembly Service, six law school reports, a one-year LawHub LSAT PrepPlus subscription, and one Score Preview. Independent individuals earning more than 250% but less than 300% of the federal poverty guidelines may be eligible for the Tier 2 fee waiver, which provides one LSAT test, Credential Assembly Service, four law school reports, a one-year LawHub LSAT PrepPlus subscription, and one Score Preview. Detailed eligibility information is available on LSAC's website.

Two new free programs for prospective students

LSAC is offering two online programs to help students make sense of the law school admission process and the world of law school itself – (1) Law School Unmasked™, a program designed for students planning to enroll in law school this fall, which will run from June 7 through June 23, and (2) Admission Unmasked™, a program designed for anyone planning to apply to law school in the upcoming cycle or later, which will run June 20 through July 29.

Both programs are free to LawHub members, and students can register for either program within their LawHub account.

If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out to LSAC by contacting them via email at LSACinfo@LSAC.org or calling them at 215-968-1001.

Hi everyone,

I just resubscribed to 7sage today. It said to purchase the prep plus program from Law Hub to access material. I purchased it. However, it still won't let me access the material such as videos. I think this is because I had 2 LSAC accounts and I might have linked this 7sage account with the other one that I did not purchase the prep program on. Is there a way to change the LSAC/LawHub account that is linked to this 7sage account?

Thanks.

Can two arguments that are contrapositives of one another be considered parallel in a parallel argument question? #help

Hello everyone, I am planning on taking the June 2022 LSAT… I have been studying for a while… I am having a hard time getting my practice test scores to where I really need them to be and really dont know where to start in diagnosing where I am going wrong… I am feeling a little overwhelmed. Any guidance would be appreciated :)

Please comment below if you would like to join the study group. I will be taking it in October most likely. I desperately need to study!!

Does this mean that the sufficient alone is enough for the conclusion to be drawn and once the conclusion can be drawn, the necessary is a must?

Can someone explain to me how Japan is a “model” if they are in a shortage. I’ve been trying to understand this for the past 6hrs

Hi everyone, I just found out that LSAC has plans to gradually remove the logic games section from the LSAT supposedly through 2023. Was just wondering if anyone knows whether this next testing cycle is going to contain the logic games section...

I was looking for a group to join and I'm having a hard time finding one. I was hoping to make a group where we can help and support each other. I am taking the LSAT for the first time. I'm quite nervous and it would be helpful to be in a group with other people to help and study with! Please let me know ASAP if anyone is interested so we can get started!

Hi there, I was wondering if I could get some advice. When I read the stimulus I usually read it out loud (like the instructor in the videos) to fully understand what the stimulus is saying and to better retain the information. Should I continue doing this as it works, or should I try to read the stimulus in my head. My fear is that I will be accused of cheating when reading the stimulus out loud.
