Hey everyone, I just took PT91 on lawhub and was wondering if anybody would be willing to help me out with a few explanations for some of the questions, specifically:

22: I chose E but not for any particular reason other than I didn't want to waste more time than needed on the question.

23: I can sort of see why AC (A) is the correct answer and if I read it more carefully I would've probably chose it but I chose AC (B) instead. I was stuck between both answers but in my head I was thinking AC (B) was correct because of how the last sentences says "cannot be caused by a simple phenomenon"

24: Was stuck between AC (C + D) ended up choosing C because of the time constraint and failed to realize that the use of 'some animals' obviously implies humans. Just wanted to confirm that C mentioning the precise location of genes is completely irrelevant to weakening the argument.

Much thanks to anyone who decides to explain these to me!

I'd like to work through each question for a group of questions (all MP from first bulk of tests) but with the option to see the correct answer choice for each question after selecting a question. Right now I can only see the option to work through x amount of the questions, do blind review, and then see the AC's for each.

Can an admin #help me out with this one? Is it possible with the way 7sage is designed?

Thanks!

I took my first lsat last year august 2020 , though I wasn't ready since it gave me the option to preview my scores. Now I've taken my second exam in october 2021 and want to take one more in November for my goal score. I was advised that I take maximum of 3 lsats and was wondering if the first one also counts as a take?

I am aware that prospective students get 3 LSAT takes per calendar year. Does the LSAT calendar year start in June?

I've been studying for this test for the past 2 years and have taken it 3 times already (154 -> 156 -> 164). The score I got yesterday is 164 and I want to take the Jan test to increase my chances for some of the schools. Does anyone have advice on how to improve your score if you have no more fresh PTs left?

I've went through PT's until 80 twice, and 80-90 once. I definitely remembered some answers when I was studying for the Oct test tho, so I'm not sure what I can do to improve. I can definitely perfect my LG and maybe my LR by drilling Qs, but RC will be tough to improve on since I remember every single freaking passage lol.

ps. my best section is LG, worst is RC

Is anyone else having an issue signing up through ProctorU right now? I got the email from LSAC to sign up but when I tried scheduling a test time it shows "no active exams". When I tried to schedule an exam under "schedule a new session" it only offers my undergraduate institution as an option, not LSAC.

Anyone else experiencing this? ProctorU is a mess and I'm worried this won't be solved anytime soon. Anyone had any luck?

It seems as though my time here has officially come to an end. I've spent a lot of time with this test and on this website, and in a sad, mildly sadistic way, I think I'll miss them both. That said, I'm looking forward to enjoying my newfound free time and not dreaming in logic games anymore.

I'll spare you all a lengthy post containing my half-baked LSAT wisdom and will just invite you to PM me if you have questions or would appreciate some of the aforementioned semi-reliable guidance (I can also answer some questions in this thread if y'all have any). Thank you all for your discussion posts, answer explanations, and shared commiseration. The LSAT journey was an arduous one and I know my misery loved your company.

Best of luck to those who will soldier forth in their battle against the test, and a heartfelt congratulations to those who are also bidding a final goodbye to the LSAT.

I was always curious cause I heard differing answers on this. But during the online lsat, are we allowed to use the finder function during the actual test? Or will we be penalized for it? I usually use it during reading comp sections to look for a specific word in the passage.

Is anyone who's doing well on the logic reasoning section able to offer some free tutoring. Im totally tanking this section consistently and I'm super frustrated. The videos are just not helping.

Anyone have any advice on how to handle the last two weeks before test day? I'm planning on taking one or two more PT's over the next few days and then to focus more on drilling/reviewing before the November LSAT. My last 5 rolling PT's are averaging at my goal score, so I'm feeling like I'm less in the 'learning' mindset and more in the 'execution' one.

I'm pretty consistently going -0 to -2 on games, so I haven't been practicing it much these past few months. Loosely my plan is to really focus back in on games heading into the test, just to make sure I'm up to speed and not rusty. Not sure if I should continue taking full LR and RC sections or switch to drilling. Or just keep on keeping on with PTs.

How are you all preparing?

Hi all, for those who have already taken the test, do you recommend taking the LSAT Writing Test before the regular test or after? I can see pros and cons to both options!

Thank you 7Sage!! It took me 2 years of studying, lots of social events sacrificed, and some financial risks to get here. Still signed up for the November test, but we'll see. Happy to be done for now!

I'm rarely one to make a public discussion post like this, but I want to express my gratitude to 7Sage and encourage others to give it a shot.

In September 2019, I got a 156 after using PowerScore. I re-took in November 2020 after studying w/ Khan Academy, and saw a marginal score increase (162), but I was still nowhere near my goal score. I started w/ 7Sage in March of 2021 and told myself this would be the last time.

The 7Sage core curriculum helped me tremendously. Starting with such a great foundation (and treating my LSAT studying like an online class) really helped to raise my floor score. I found myself performing with greater consistency and was confident going into test day (a strange feeling!). Anyways, all this to say that I have been thoroughly impressed w/ 7Sage, and after having used other popular methods like PowerScore and Khan, I can say that this was the best prep regiment I tried hands-down. Excited to never have to think about this test ever again!

Hello everyone, I apologize if this has been discussed previously but has there been any word on when 7Sage plans to post explanation videos to the PT's in the title?

Okay, kind of a long post but I am feeling super discouraged after getting October LSAT results and I'm scheduled to take the November test. I feel like I have gotten the absolute worst luck of the draw on LSATs and can't tell if I'm just being dramatic or not.

I've taken 3 LSATs so far, two of them two years ago, then focused on work until a few months ago when I decided to apply again and took the October 2021 LSAT...here's how each one went:

September 2019: aka PT88 and flowers game, a notoriously hard LSAT, and I was okay with my score considering it was a hard test, but I knew it didn't show my potential so I decided to take the November 2019 test.

November 2019: Show up to the test and the proctors never arrive, so our entire test center gets rescheduled BUT we have to do a paper test. I had not practiced on paper at all since all the tests had moved to electronic, so I ended up scoring 4 points lower because you can't see time remaining and I just wasn't used to the timing of filling out the scantron.

October 2021: I originally sat for the test on Saturday when it was interrupted and I waited 2 hours to be told it was going to be rescheduled. The test I originally had was 2 LG sections, which is my strongsuit, and the easier RC section. When I retook the test, I got back to back RC sections with the scored section (Mali and Paternalism) being the second of the two, as well as the Duets logic game.

I got the same score as my Sep 2019 test...

I just feel like all the tests have been stacked against me and it is so frustrating when some tests feel so unfair. I have been PTing in the low 170s but have had awful luck during all of my actual LSATs. Am I just being dramatic?

How do I stay motivated when it just feels like I'll never get a fair test administration?

Hi everyone,

I will be going over the CC for the second time in a much more thorough way. I wanted to know y'all's thoughts on when to incorporate PTs and study groups.

Currently, my average is a 155 (best PT being a 157) so I am going back to reallllly learn the fundamentals again. Being that I have some fundamentals already down, I am not sure if I should be PTing while doing the CC again or if I should wait to PT (and have a study group BRing PTs) until after I finish the CC. I'd appreciate y'all's insight.

On all of the tests, the experimental section is either 3 or 4. Will it be like that on the LSAT as well?

Due to technical issues I honestly expected my score to be a heartbreak. Turned out to be a 163.

It still is a heartbreak, in a way, because I had regularly been PT'ing at around 170, my goal score, and my last PT before the test (the morning of the test in fact) was a 173.

I put this partly down to test day nerves but the vast majority down to the extreme anxiety caused by Proctor U. Like many others, I was sitting on my hands for close to an hour due to a 'technical problem' not on my end between the 2nd and 3rd sections.

Still, getting an 84th percentile score even in the worst test conditions possible (at least I hope it could not be worse) has honestly given me a lot of confidence for November, which I am thankful I registered for. I want a 170 and feel better about getting there now. Thanks in big part to 7sage whose materials and guidance was the biggest factor in my score lift by far.

The 7sage video says that the stim. says:

S -> (U or C)

thus, S -> (C -> U)

But this doesn't seem right?

Shouldn't the contrapositive instead be: (U and C) -> S ?

This question is in general very frustrating and confusing, but I need to understand how J.Y. came to the conclusions he came to.

I started studying on September 1st and got a diagnostic score of 148. I have been studying consistently for almost two months with some breaks in between. Last week, I hit 166! I take the LSAT in January and wanted to ask if there is something more I should be doing to prepare for the test or should I just continue to take practice tests? My goal score was 160 so I am having a hard time feeling motivated to continue to study although I know I have to.

I was consistently PTing in the low-mid 160s and BRing in the upper 160s. I just got my score back and it was 9 points lower than my most recent PT and two points lower than my August score. I am so discouraged and disappointed in myself. I know this test isn’t an intelligence test, but it sure feels like it. Going on over a year of studying and making gains right before this test, I was feeling so confident. I’m just at a loss for words and don’t know where to go from here. Sad.

Got 161 at Oct 2020, Jan 2021 and oct 2021.

I feel like the whole year had been wasted.

I scored 168 on both of the newest PTs, and I feel really confident at the October test.

Anyways, congrats to all who get what you want.

Hey guys, I am wondering if anyone can help me gain any information on my situation. I don't really have anyone who can give me advice.

I am trying to choose where to apply an ED, and I am between two schools. For school A, I am over their 75% LSAT by one point, but below their 25% GPA by .1 points. For school B, I am above their 25% GPA by .1 and above their 75% LSAT by 3 points.

I feel like I have a strong resume and a passionate PS/DS, but I don't know how much my lower GPA will affect me. School A is my top choice, but School B offers full tuition if you are admitted through ED.

Can anyone give me advice on the likelihood I could get into school A even being below the 25% GPA? I know its tough without seeing my resume, LORs, and statements. But hoping to get some insight because I am conflicted.

Thank you to anyone who can help!

My Lsat score still has not posted. It states it's temporarily on Hold, But I still haven't received an email for the reason it would be on hold. Is anyone having this problem as well?
