I'm new to 7sage and I have been going through the curriculum. I like the idea of low resolution summary but I'm curious as to how you'll are doing this on the LSAT Flex where you are unable to write on the passage. Are there any techniques that you'll use for annotation?

Background: I usually score around -6 on LR and LG, but my RC grades usually sit around 50% incorrect answers. I'd like to get this down to the same level as the other two sections before I proceed with studying them further. (I haven't implemented the Low Res/ High Res summary technique on a practice test yet, before I didn't have any strategy at all.)

I see 7Sage has the option to simulate the LSAT-Flex which simply removes one of the LR sections from a practice test. From a prep perspective, is there any benefit to doing this? I see it from the alternative position and being more advantageous to work on an extra 25 LR questions. What might I not be thinking about?

I haven't been able to score a 150 (untimed) the closes I've gotten is a 146. Recently I find myself stuck at a 143 (timed) but when I do blind review, I manage to get 150 (I've gotten this twice my last two PT's). I don't know if I'll be able to start scoring in 150's by January (untimed). I would really like to get into school for the fall. My LSAT goal is mid 150's. I'll take a 150 too honestly. Anyway, my top two schools' deadlines are March 1. I COULD take the Feb LSAT, but I'm wondering if that is risky. Should I wait for next cycle? I feel like my time is running out. My next test will be the third attempt. I would try at most 4. Advice?

For the LSAC LawHub prep tests purchased with the monthly plan on LSAC's website, is there an option to switch the test to a Flex test like on 7Sages prep test Platform? Are others routinely taking the LSAC's prep tests to simulate the actual test day interface and then reviewing the questions with explanations from the corresponding test on 7sage? Looking for the best way to incorporate the LSAC tests with the 7 sage explanation material.

Hey y'all. I went through the entire logic games curriculum several months ago and I'm currently making my way through every logic games section of the PTs on LawHub. I take a timed section each morning and then immediately go over it with the videos. I notice that sometimes I don't make inferences as quickly as should for how long I've been studying and I feel like I'm going to need to "warm up" the day of the test. Which games would you recommend taking the morning of to prepare myself to make inferences as quickly as possible?

I'm nearing the end of the core curriculum and I will begin doing preptests every couple of days, but since I'm limited with time before the January LSAT I wont be able to get through most of the practice tests. That being said, should I just focus on doing the newer tests, or the old ones, or a mix of both? I expect to be able to do about 15 in the time I will have remaining before my exam so I want to make sure that I am making the right choices.

I'm a girl and I'm Asian but I don't feel that either of those two things had any bearing on my life; should I even write a diversity statement? I feel that my application is missing something if I don't write one, but I don't want to force diversity where there isn't any

Hi, I am retaking the LSAT in January in hopes of increasing my score. I am looking for an affordable tutor who can help. If you know of anyone please let me know. Thank you!

I made great improvements in the LR section after using the loophole. On the pt's in the 60's and 70's i was usually -3 to -5. Since moving into the 80's though my scores have gotten much worse, anywhere from -5 to -8. I am wondering if anyone else has experienced this and found that taking a break from timed sections and pt's to go back to doing translation and clir drills helped? That is what helped me get to -3 on the earlier pt's but i am scheduled to take January and taking a break from timed work scares me. Appreciate any feedback you may have!

Does anyone know if you get your financial aid package/scholarship amounts when you get accepted to a school? Or do you not get it until the Spring. Just wondering if when I get accepted to a school I will be able to have a rough idea of what I would be paying.

Hi guys. I am taking the LSAT in January, but am not looking to apply until next cycle (applying for fall of 2022). Is that too early to take the test, or will law schools be ok with using that score (granted I get one I want) for a fall of 2021 application? Any advice would be helpful. Thanks!

Hi all. Nearly all of my last bit of prep has been focusing on getting my RC better/more reliable. Sometimes, I can get -0 on a timed section I've never done before, and then turn around and get -4 on a timed section that is a redo and I took it only 2 months ago. I'll even swing as far as a -7 or -8 on new, timed sections. There seems to be very little rhyme or reason. Not only that, but a lot of the time, I won't even get the same answers wrong as I did the first time. For example, I retook an RC section today and got -4 compared to -5 when I initially took it. And, the ones I got wrong this time were ALL ones that I got correct the first time. It makes me not even want to study for RC because I feel like nothing I do matters-- I may do good or I may do bad, but it truly does all feel like it's up to chance. Like obviously I should have been able to get those four questions correct, as I've done so before. Anyone else struggle with the same thing and found a way to get their variability in RC down? Thanks.

Hi, I hosted a group session last week where we went over Formal Logic in the LSAT, a new way to approach LR, and a full LR section! Thank you to everyone that showed up :)

I'm going to be hosting weekly group sessions (at least for the month of December), so this week, I hope to see you on 12/9 Wed 10PM EST. It should go on for around 1-1.5hrs, or so, and I'm going to be covering, roughly, the following topics:

  • Logic Games: A Systematic Approach

  • Taking Blind Review (and review in general!) a step further

    • Afterwards, I'll be going through an entire LR section, taking questions, and talking through my approach. If you want to follow along, please have PT21 S2 in hand.

    Join the following zoom link @noon/12pm GMT+9, or 10PM EST!

    Conf Id 552 864 7080 also works with the same password. Thanks, and see you soon!

    If you can't make the time, I'll try my best to schedule a second session, so please let me know.

    I don't understand how A would strengthen the argument. If even a few members of Group B ate nutritious breakfasts and didn't increase their productivity as much as Group A did, wouldn't that weaken the argument even if Group A has a stronger correlation between eating nutritious breakfasts and increasing in productivity? And when A says few in Group B had nutritious breakfasts, can that be translated as "most did not have nutritious breakfasts?"

    Does anyone know how one would go about Blind Reviewing a Preptest from LawHub? I find it unfortunate that they automatically score your results.

    I have the Prep+ from LSAC and the 7sage plan. However, when I try to link them by pressing the button it just transfers me to LSAC, prompts me to log in LSAC and just takes me to the Prep+ LSAC page to do practice tests... okay..?

    I want to follow along with JY's videos in the syllabus but it won't let me properly link. What is going on?

    I also tried going in my email and clicking 'Link to Coach' there
