For logic game explanation vids they are now showing a computed "target time" instead of the old suggested time bench marks that used to be there. For example, for one game he says in a video that you should aim for under 10 minutes for a game, but my "target time" for that game is 8:38. Is this an update? Before today I had never seen such specific target times under the videos. Also, In the past the time always seemed to line up with what JY said. Is there any way to switch this back?. Also how are these target times calculated?

Looking for a study partner to practice for the November lsat. Would love for both of us to take 2 PT's a week and then BR them together and talk about what we missed and how to improve- honestly mostly to keep each other accountable and hold each other to a strict study routine as this is the last month. Im trying to take PT 69, 70, 76, 80, 84, 85, 86 88 before the November test. Please message me if interested.

I am taking the flex exam on the 8th and RC is currently my worst section, probably because I've spent 99% of my time working on LR and LG. I have trouble retaining the information so have to read again and then lose time. On my most recent PT I got -4 LR and -2 LG, should I focus on keeping improving those or should I spend some time doing RC drills?

Hello Sagers! I have a quick, possibly trivial question regarding the online UI for the LSAT Flex that maybe someone who took the August exam could help me with: Is there a way to mark or blank out answer choices as eliminated when taking the test online?

I find this feature super useful when going through 2 or.3 answers with the fine-tooth comb after I've eliminated other choices. Wondering if I should continue to use this feature on 7Sage or get used to taking practice exams without it. Thanks!

"[Jubilee] was to the spiritual what Hughes's The Weary was to secular songs."

This comes from PT2, Section 1, Q3, AC (E).

Can anyone translate this sentence for me please?

Thank you!

How close before your test day are you planning to take your final PT? For example, I'm taking the October flex on the 8th. I'm considering taking a PT on the 3rd, and then taking the 4th-7th completely off. I'm hoping to experience the effect where people hit a new personal best score after taking a few days off from studying. Does this seem like a good strategy? Should I take the PT closer to the test or further?

Thanks for your input. Good luck!

Do we think LSAT Flex will be used for the April 2021 test administration?

Hi all,

Do I need to send in my study abroad transcript if 1) it was only for one semester and 2) I didn't receive credit for the grades I got from that semester?

Hello,

I am new to 7sage and considering enrolling in the full course and I just have a quick question about the design of the course. Is this course designed to go through the course curriculum and then start taking PT's? Or does it mix in PT's as we complete the curriculum? Thanks in advance!

Hey all, I am new to 7sage and just created and took my first problem set, made up of questions from PT 1 logical reasoning qs. In the review portion, I only see "discuss" under explanation. How do I find the answer key/explanations for questions? When I look under the "explanation videos" I only see logic games and reading comp sections. Thanks!

Hi, all. I am just curious about a particular type of visualisation. We are all familiar with the idea of drawing diagrams for LR questions, and the necessity of competent diagramming for LG. But one thing I have never head discussed is this: when people read a text they will, or they will not, make an internal image of what is being stated. It is not necessary to do so to understand the meaning of a given passage, yet certainly for any novel, and for many other mediums, doing this provides a richer aesthetic experience, and perhaps might even result in a more clear understanding of the text.

So here is the general questions: does anyone think that constantly visualising nearly every image on a RC or LG passage to be a benefit?

Accountability partner anyone?

Hello,

I was was wondering if anyone knows when the last time slot for the test would be.

The october LSAT Flex was from 7am - 7pm EST. Does that mean that the last test starts at 7pm or the last test ends at 7pm?

Thank you!

Hello everyone, how is the writing portion for the LSAT flex administered?

do we have a time to do the writing portion?

thanks in advance

I was stuck between B and C, and ultimately ended up going with C. I immediately crossed out D because I didn't think it was relevant. Would really appreciate someone's insight.

Hi everyone - just wondering if anyone else has trouble with doing RC on a computer screen. In general, I prefer to read things physically printed out (actual books, magazines, newspapers, etc). I notice that my focus is better and I retain more information. Since the LSAT is all online, I bought a tablet to acclimate myself to reading longer passages on a screen. Now that the LSAT is Flex and I can't use tablets, I'm finding that doing RC on my computer screen has been terrible for focus and info retention. I know I just have to keep practicing and getting used to it, but does anyone else have this issue and can suggest ways to get over it? Thanks!

Hey all,

I am currently in a dilemma upon receiving a feedback from my old college professor on my personal statement.

My essay is concentrated on the timeframe between childhood and high school. It starts with an incident that happened when I was eleven. The impacts of the incident continues until high school and my essay covers what I've learned and how it sparked my interest in law. I am pretty confident that my story is unique, which is the reason why I wanted to focus on that experience. And I got the impression from 7Sage's curriculum about personal statement that it's better to focus on something specific rather than painting a broad picture.

But my college professor advised me to condense that story to half, and write the other half about my college experience. She recommended that I write about how I've worked to earn and advance the skills that will help me in law school and in a career as a lawyer. She told me to demonstrate that I am a good writer and researcher, but I am not sure how to show that as I have not written any thesis or did research outside class assignments. Some extracurriculars I've done and awards received could be indicative, but my resume already covers them and provide a good picture on how I spent my time in college. She also believes that I need to indicate why I chose my college in the US (I am Korean). Hmm.

I have so much love and respect for the professor that I feel like I need to follow her advice, but at the same time I am not sure if talking about my college experience will just dilute the impact of my story. What should I do?

Hi everyone,

I'm not a super angry person, but something about the LSAT brings out frustration in me. I'm three weeks into studying and I'm having a hard time maintaining focus while studying, especially during the logic games. I just get so frustrated because I feel like I'm not making progress because I'm not acing sequencing games after having already moved onto grouping games (not going well). This frustration sometimes makes me miss inferences and get more frustrated. Any tips to increase discipline/decrease frustration?

Any tips on improving RC this October for the November Lsat? Im averaging -3 LG and -4 LR but keep my RC ranges from -5 to -13 on some tests? Any tips would be helpful

Has anyone purchased the 7Sage Admissions Course? Is it worth the sticker price? We're down to one income due to Covid-19 and $3K for me right now might as well be $50k lol but if it's worth the fee, I will try to find a way to pay it.

Hey guys, so I am registered for both the October and November flex. I am currently not where I want to be scoring, but still it's a huge improvement from my first flex. I'm confident I can improve my score even more with one extra month of studying. The benefit of taking it in October is that I could potentially apply earlier to schools, and it reduces the stress of relying too much on the November flex for a good score. But then I would have three LSAT scores as opposed to just two.

Would it be better off to take the November test and then retake in January or wait off until January to take it for a higher score? And this is for the current cycle!

Hey, I'm aiming for a 165+ on the Nov. LSAT FLEX.

On my last five prep tests, I'm averaging just under that score, around 163 (173 average on BR).

I'm dropping a lot of points on LG with a median score of 15. I'm doing decently on RC, going -2 or -3 on average.

On LR, however, there's definitely room for improvement with a median score of 21/25.

Where do I go from here?

Ideally, I'd like to improve on both my weakest sections, LG and LR. I've been using 7Sage and PowerScore till now.

I heard the The Loophole in LSAT Logical Reasoning by Ellen Cassidy offers a different and effective way to tackle LR, but the book only just arrived in the mail.

Should I try to absorb new material now, or would my time be better spent focusing on LG?

Thanks guys! Best of luck to everyone writing the test in November.

There is no way I will ever get this section. I am doing great with reading comp, ok with logical reasoning, but LG is seriously dragging my score down by an easy 10 pts.

I took the LSAT 2 years ago, on paper in a testing center, I have decided to take it again to try to get my score up. I'm a bit nervous about the digital format but am slowly adjusting to it. I'm not sure what to expect on test day, I've heard so many different things. Can anyone elaborate what the check-in process is like, and in general what to expect? I also heard on the PowerScore Podcast that there was no bathroom breaks, can anyone confirm?
