While I was doing the problem set I found the "pin" function before each answer result as shown:

I wonder what will happen after I've pinned those. Will I be able to generate a list of those pinned questions afterwards?

(sorry I don't know how to post an image. I put a link of the image as instructed but it's not showing here)

So I was doing the timed problem sets and I found there were different theme options ranging from 7sage to standard to choose. I wonder if the "standard" here means the format that looks exactly like the real test.

Some accidents happened to my CAS Report and it probably will not be complete until mid-April. I am thinking about 1) just not do anything and see what may happen in the end, maybe some schools still want me (but probably not my dream schools) 2) withdraw my applications and apply early next cycle

The reason why I am considering option 2 is because I am worried I may need to rewrite my app materials all over again, most of which I just finished in January and the next cycle is just half a year away. Let's say if admissions offices read my app this May, my stories will become a "recent old news" for them in Sept. Is my worry justified? And if I withdraw, am I a reapplicant next cycle?

Thanks!

I hope everyone is keeping their heads up in these times.

I got waitlisted and would like to send an updated resume. Since I finished the LSAT, I have been learning the Russian language. I know Arabic, Hebrew and conversational Spanish and I chose Russian because I love the language and have always wanted to learn it. I also know that being a multi-lingual lawyer can only be a competitive plus. Does anyone know how I can go about sending an 'updated resume'?

This is what I have so far but it feels so bland. Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you everyone.

Dear Admissions Committee,

Thank you for reviewing my application for admission to XX School of Law. Since completing the LSAT, I have been teaching myself the Russian language. A multi-lingual lawyer is indispensable and learning Russian can only open more doors of opportunity for myself and put me at a competitive edge.

Furthermore, I would like to express my continued interest in the school of law.

Sincerely,

XX

Ten years ago, I had the dream to quit teaching public school and attend law school to pursue a career as an education lawyer. I had taken 4 PTs about a month before the exam and I was shocked when I scored a 138.- I had no idea that my expectation was so off the wall crazy bonkers. Then I enrolled in a Kaplan course, took the test again and got a 148. I signed up to take it again, and sat the test but canceled my score. I was rejected from every school, except one, and I didn’t go because I was a crazy delusional that some schools were better than others. I didn’t want to go into the “4th tier toilet,” so pride stopped me from attending at all. I felt then that if that stopped me then I didn’t really want to be a lawyer. I kept teaching, earned an MA in policy instead, and started a second career in higher education as a student affairs professional. Here I am again, hoping that my flex score is at least a 152, knowing that I have to put the dream away if it doesn’t result in getting into the part time evening program in my city. I have a mortgage, a child, a great husband, and hoping to move up in my current career have another child and attend pt law. Maybe we can’t have everything, and that’s what I’m trying to convey.

For what it’s worth, I have learned a ton about myself and my understanding of this test and my ability to reason. I’ve consistently been blind reviewing at a 160-165 range, so the understanding is there. I have learned to trust myself, and that is huge!

Can someone explain why AC E is the correct answer instead of D?

In the lesson on bi-conditionals (Lesson 7 of 18 in Advanced Logic), we are told that "Alan attends the meeting only if Chris attends the meeting" is expressed as "A>C." I get that. But don't we need another expression that says in effect, "otherwise [or else], Alan does not attend"?

Given the rule, "If G and S are both in, then W is in," I understand the contrapositive is "If W is out, then G is out or S is out (since both G and S cannot be in). But why doesn't the contrapositive also allow for the possibility that G and S are BOTH out (as well as W being out)?

I was listening in on podcast #4 with LSATcantwin. Around 38 minutes in he mentions the thing for him at 18 was WoW, JY mentions Diablo 2. I put countless hours into Diablo 2, but I definitely don't see myself able to put in that time now. That doesn't mean I'm not hype for the remaster. Every now and then I'll play an hour or two of apex or warzone just to break from the routine.

What was a guilty pleasure for you (and maybe still is)?

Hi,

I've been trying really hard to understand Sufficient and necessary but for some reason always get stuck with diagramming when the usual indicators are not there. Can someone explain how to figure this out or recommend any resources please?

An example of the sentence I didn't get is “demands the memorization of unfamiliar commands” in PT 26.S3.Q21

Thanks!

Which school should I pick??

So I am studying the "Introduction to Logic" section. So when I'm at the exam, after I've gone through the steps to eventually know the relationship in the "sufficient condition➡️necessary condition" form, should I note this relationship with an arrow down on paper physically for further use or should I just remember it in mind?

hi - so I took the january lsat and my score was OK, but at the low end of my 10point spectrum. so I applied to my first choice regional school and just received their decision yesterday. I'm in, and have a 50% merit scholarship. I'm above their 75%s on lsat and gpa. BUT, I am trying to get as close to 100% merit, as I'm paying out of pocket (no govt loans). I've been planning to take the june test just to finish with a bigger score (even if I had gotten a 100% - - I really love this test). When I took the test in january I started to have covid symptoms the day before my test - - a headache that I couldn't get rid of for the actual test - - i ended up with worse mild symptoms a few days later. So, I think I can do better! I've been preptesting better at the least. Another thing is that I found out last weekend that I have to have surgery on my eyes, my vision has been blurry since mid-2020 and now I know why. That may have impacted my january performance, but the surgery might also interfere with june - although I think the recovery time is pretty quick. I'm even wondering if I might qualify for some sort of vision-based accommodation (long shot). Needing a surgery just adds a layer that interferes with the june test (and also why I can't do the april test, besides signups being closed)

Has anyone ever re-applied to a school that accepted them the next cycle? do you think the school will penalize me if I do this? I certainly don't want to seem ungrateful for the merit award they offered and I don't want them to hold that against me. I'm also not sure whether I should just pay the seat deposit, take the june test and then try to renegotiate a higher scholarship - although that would be early july and they may have given away all their money? Anyone ever done this? I hate to throw away 'good money' that I could use for textbooks/study aids later on. Thoughts?

I also don't plan to re-apply if my score isn't at least 4 points higher as it would be like resubmitting the same application and hoping for a different outcome. I only applied to this one school and if I do much better, I'm thinking of applying to a couple more, since I think I want to move somewhere new.

thanks everyone! I really appreciate any feedback

Covered the CC fully last month & got into PTs this month; considering that my exam target is April, I've only taken exams in the 70s and 80s series. I've noticed that I tend to miss a lot of LR questions despite feeling like my fundamentals are solid post the CC. There's been good improvement in RC and LG [-4 and -5 respectively, with the potential to go -2 if I cut out the silly mistakes] since I started, but I really need help with LR questions on the newer exams which are [IMO] tougher than the ones discussed in the CC.

Is there a method to foolproof LR and RC that would be conducive to improvement?

I do really detailed Blind Review and analysis/review (after checking the answer choices) of all the LR and RC questions (including watching the majority of JY's video explanations), but when I solve a new PT I find that my score isn't increasing and that it has plateaued? So, I am not quite sure if continuing to solve new PTs and comprehensively reviewing them afterwards is sufficient, or if taking more time to re-review some of the LR questions/RC passages that I've struggled with in the past would be helpful (even if that means not being able to take as many PTs)? (I'm currently taking 1 PT/week).

Any help would be appreciated, thank you!

Hi All!

I got a 163 on the LSAT in November 2020. I applied to schools but was not accepted where I wanted to go, so I am thinking of re-applying for the next year. I want to take the LSAT again in June.

Any tips for how I can raise my score until then? I'm reaching for a 168-170. Please help. Thank you.

it's a shot in the dark but are there any fellow Alaskans out there prepping/testing?

I started 145 and my goal was 155. I'm now PT'ing in the low 160's with skipping a full logic game due to time. I can do them, but I've not yet truly practiced LG yet. I wrote a little reflection on my progress and some kind of SWOT analysis and am curious if I am just absolutely crazy or not. This whole thing is crazy honestly. 150 was unattainable and was a struggle. Then I quit PT's and just worked fundamentals for two months and boom. I skipped the 150's and am now scoring in the low 160's.

If anyone who has experience with going through the 160's and into "that next level" is bored, I'd greatly appreciate your opinion. I just don't want to post it publicly. Thank you.

At my university a lot of the 3000 level courses are taught by PhD students and those classes happen to be the smallest and where I’ve been able to interact with the instructor the most. But I’m worried that because they are still in the process of completing a degree their letter of rec might be seen as a weakness in my application even it’s a positive recommendation. If anyone has any insight on this that would be really great!

It would be great to be able to replicate the actual test as much as possible

Hey guys,

One of the sections I struggle the most on is reading comprehension, and from what I read online, the best way to improve is to simply read more.

I am looking for sources of reading material that would strengthen my reading comprehension skills and expose me to the type of reading that I would be seeing in the LSAT. Some of the sources mentioned online were the economist, wall street journal, and published articles/papers from the top 3 law schools.

Any idea if reading material from these sources actually helps or if there are other useful sources out there?

Thank you!

I am already stressed about having professors write me LoR in the fall. My classes are small and my professors know me by my name, but I have never gone to a single office hour for any professor. Since everything is online, I would have to make a zoom appointment to meet with them in "office hour", there are no drop ins. I've always wanted to go to law school, so I'm a history major; how do I ask questions and form relationships with my professors when I don't want to go into the area of study that they are in? If I ask additional questions about the readings, additional materials, aren't they going to know I'm just BS-ing them?

Hi 7Sage,

I am proud to announce my free LR tutoring series!

You're probably asking, who the heck are you and what's with the this tutoring series ?. Let me preface this by saying I AM NOT AN EXPERT. However I recently scored a 168 on the January LSAT, and have been tutoring for a few months, and studying for over 18 months. I started at a 140 diagnostic, I went through Powerscore, The Loophole, The LSAT Trainer. Scrounged the internet for any advice I could find, spent hours on YouTube watching explanation videos only to end up watching "Funny Pet Videos". What I'm getting at is I had to fight my way to a 168. And throughout my journey, I developed a process that allowed me, and those I tutor to to tackle this blasted exam.

This is the main purpose for this series, the LSAT doesn't have to be as hard as it's made out to be, everyone learns differently so my goal is to bring a new perspective and clarity to anyone struggling to achieve their goal. Oh and did I mention it's free! Don't be shy, all skill ranges are welcome there is something for everyone in this series.
