Hi everyone,

I am about to retake the LSAT in January and am hoping for a higher score than the first time I took it in July. 7Sage has helped me a lot. When I am practicing and drilling questions, I get a lot of them right. When I go to take a timed practice test, I seem to have hit a brick wall with my score, but I know I am capable of getting higher. Does anyone have any last minute advice on how to get past this mental block? Thanks so much!!

I haven't started anything with RC , I wanted to nail down LR first in hopes that it would my RC in general.

Any suggestions on how to tackle RC? 7Sage method ? PSB ? Reading a dense passage every night ?

My 4 month subscription doesn't expire until Feb 20, however, when I try to access the videos to old notes I get the error: "Sorry, this material isn't included in your course. Have you considered upgrading?" Does anyone know how to fix this? I take my LSAT next week!!!

Hi,

I have some question on In/out games regarding chaining, probably will take 15-30 minutes to explain to me, I just don't get it from JY, willing to pay for someones time via zoom. Thank you.

I keep getting sent to my syllabus in the middle of completing my Prep Test. I did an internet speed test, and my speed looks good. With the Jan 2021LSAT coming up, I am assuming there is just a lot of people on this website right now that are trying to complete the same Prep Tests. Is this something you all are experiencing as well? (it is good practice for the actual test, which may get disconnected from the proctor!)

Hi,

I went to continue to work through the main point section today and it seems to have disappeared. Is anyone else experiencing this problem?

Hey folks, I'm wondering if its okay to be reading outloud on the LSAT flex. I know there will be a proctor etc. so I don't see why you wouldn't be able to read an RC passage or LR stimuli outloud as long as you're alone in the room you're testing in. But I know this has been an issue for proctored college exams and other standardized tests so I am just curious if it also applies to the LSAT.

I just started 7Sage at the beginning of this week so I'm still familiarizing myself with the site, but I was in the middle of the Main Point/Conclusion lesson when I clicked next and it suddenly said I didn't have that subscription? And now my syllabus does not even have that lesson on it, even though I paid for the monthly Ultimate+. Did anyone else have this problem/ know how to help?

Hello, I have recently just started my studying and wanted to over the material of Main Point questions that are early in the logic section but now they will not show up unless I go to my notes. When I go the notes section and click on the link for a starred MP question, it says I do not have the plan for this material even though I just went over it. My plan is monthly by the way.

Hi everyone

It's been 7 months since I started studying for LSAT, my first PT i got 127 and the best one so far I got 150. I've been diagnosed with ADHD, and studying for this test with ADHD makes it 100X harder than it normally is. I get distracted so many times while reading the question, especially RC. It's been around 1.5 month that I have not improved at all, and I have lost my confidence. Has anyone struggling with similar problem (ADHD) has any advice for me?

Hiya, I know that nearly all of us are wanting to save as much time as possible on Logic Games. One of the biggest issues I face is always have to redraw long diagrams for new questions on linear sequencing games. I just spent a ton of time on one where I had to draw out a table with 8 bases. It looked like this (with a number underneath):

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

Commonly, I'd have to redraw the base line again for a new question or when a possibility didn't work out. However, you can save time by doing this: instead of having to redraw the base points again, you can use the spaces above and below the table you've already created. Just be sure to scratch out the work that was erroneous to avoid confusion.

Basically draw again at the arrows I make and you can use one base up to three times or more. This may not work on multilayered linear sequencing games or you may be able to find a way around it.

--> (stack another above, you can keep stacking)

--> (one on the actual spaces)

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

--> (or use below, but you may want to keep this space open to impossibilities)

Anyway, I hope this helps some of you save some precious time on the LSAT! Good luck!

There was a previous discussion on increasing Mac RAM storage capacity ahead of the Flex test and I can't find it anymore. I'm struggling to get within the parameters required for ProctorU - did anyone else see the thread recommendations? Many thanks!

Hey everybody,

This post is directed towards people who have already written for the LSAT Flex. My concern is regarding the room/office/space/cell that one will take the flex in. Is there a certain type of room LSAC expects us to use? And specific guidelines as to what the room entails? For example, I have a desk in my office at my house. It has a few paintings on the wall, a few plants in the corner, a small book shelf (with books), and behind my chair is a tall "desk set". I'm wondering if I have to deconstruct the set and remove all other items from the room before the exam. Not about to spend 6 months studying just to be told that I can't take the flex because there's a portrait of a matador in the bottom left screen.

Let me know what I should do as its just around the corner. Thanks for the help fellow Sagers. :)

And does anyone know when the LSAC will announce whether it is or not? It’s a little nerve wracking not knowing the format of the test, even though I’m still 5 months out...

Anyone know some good games with both repeating elements and conditionals (like games 3 and 4 from PT 87) that I can practice before Sunday?

Im currently having issues pertaining to Logic Games. I'm having issues in terms of which game board type I would apply depending on the stimulus. I'm not sure if I should do In/Out or Grouping or a mix of two depending on the situation is what I'm having issues with immensely. I haven't practiced the logic games section that much though in terms of the explanation videos JY provides. Do you think if I print the Logic Game questions out that are provided in the curriculum and doing them over and over again will help me identify which game board I use in the future on other questions? I would appreciate any guidance!

Hi everyone! For the Flex, I know people use a phone camera during the check-in process to show what their computer looks like. Does anyone know whether I can use a small handheld mirror to do this instead?? Thank you!

Hi all!

Does anyone know when LSAC will release new testing dates? I know that they have release the dates for January and April, but will there be any other test dates for 2021?

Hey all!

I'm taking the Jan flex next week and am shooting for a 160. I have been doing research and it appears that 54/76 points translates to a 160 on the flex. However, I was going through my Preptests on 7Sage and scored 54/76 on PT 81 which (on 7Sage) translated to a 158.

I was just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on which scoring scale is closer to the flex? Would love to know if anyone else has noticed something similar!

Could someone explain why D is wrong and A is right?

I initially chose D because it said "Parents are given vouchers" and "to attract students."

I thought students could be attracted, but then that doesn't mean that they would attend the school, because it's up to the parents.

I would really appreciate any advice!! I'm retaking the LSAT this weekend after taking it back in July. I got a decent score the first time I took it but it really isn't what I wanted and I was convinced I could do better. I have been dealing with a lot of test anxiety so I don't think I've prepared to the best of my ability for the January Flex (the anxiety kind of makes me not want to study if that makes sense?) but at the same time I'm not sure what more I can even do.

I'm scoring 2-3 points above my July score which still isn't where I want it to be. At this point I don't know if I should just take it this weekend and go with the score I've got or if I should withdraw and take a break from studying/LSAT stuff in general and try again over the summer. I'm not applying during this admissions cycle so I'm not restricted to taking it now. I also really just want to be done and not have to go through studying and stressing about it again but I also am not content with the PT scores I have.

Hi!

Strange question, I know. I was granted a 50% time accomodation and recently realized that, with 53 min per section, I'll have to be sitting about 3 hours when you include the pre-test rituals with the proctor. Now, I have tiny blatter and can barely manage more than two hours without peeing. Since I was not granted any break time, I need to figure out a way to pee. Any suggestions? Will I be allowed to have a bucket next to me duirng the test? Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Does anybody know if the June test will also be Flex?

Hey everyone,

I hope you’re all keeping safe and healthy!

I’m writing the January Flex and I’m wondering if there’s anything I need to download before my test (MacBook user)? Do I just sign onto my ProctorU before my test and it’ll load me to a screen? Please let me know about your experiences :)
