This was a very useful drill that I did everyday to warm up and I can't find it anymore. It was a long list of fruits that you hook up using conditional statements. Any help finding which section it is in would be appreciated.
I’m led to this question because of these steps (below) that I took lol. Correct me at any point if there is a flaw in how I went about it!
In 72-2-25, /A and /B strengthens A cause B. We want to strengthen the argument’s assumption by showing that A causes B (buy online cause /use car), so we say /A and /B (/buy online and use car). This makes sense to me intuitively because the CAC is saying that /cause correlated with /effect, which strengthens the relationship between cause and effect.
OK SO, IF /A ← correlated→ /B strengthens A -cause-> B (what we have above - no cause and no effect strengthens cause → effect ), does that mean:
A -cause-> B, which implies A ← correlated→ B, implies /A ← correlated → /B?
And if the answer is yes or no, is there a cleaner theoretical reason why?
*footnote: I shortened direct mail advertising (buy phone or online) from 72-2-25 to just “buy online” to focus purely on the theory part. From 72-2-25: https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-72-section-2-question-25/, but this idea has also come up for me as a question in other causation q's.
Has anyone gotten their disclosed report from the June Flex yet? Mine still says that it's not available for me to view
I just finished fool proofing games from 1-35 and I was consistently doing most of them all right within time once I got a hang of it. I took two full timed sections today and scored -4 and -5. I did my blind review (before seeing my results) under timed constraints and managed to get a -0 and -1. Is this a transitioning issue that will go away once I do full sections more frequently or do I have to approach sections differently?
Hi all -
I have always wanted to take the LSAT but have been putting it off for YEARS. I signed for 7Sage 5 years ago and never followed through. This year I have decided that I want to start studying and hopefully be ready to take the LSAT this year. I’ve never studied so it’ll all be super new to me. If you’re just getting started as well or are interested in partnering up, please let me know. I’m located in MA and most likely will be looking at schools here when I start applying. I should also add that I have most of the LSAT study materials (LSAT bible books, past actual tests, etc.). I just need to get started and take at least the first test to see how I score while managing my FT work and family needs.
Hi there!
I was scheduled to take the July Flex test, but after careful consideration, I decided to move it back to August. I have been studying since beginning of April (gone through the power score books and Khan Academy), however, I just recently discovered 7sage and have only gone through about 15% of the CC. My last 3 PT's I have scored 159. My goal is to consistently score between 161-163.
I am very close to having mastered LG and usually get -1 to -5. RC is usually around -6 to -9 and LR -6 to -9 as well.
I am feeling a bit defeated already with changing the date, but I do believe I can achieve my desired score with 2 more months of solid prep (with a little bit of help!).
Thank you!!
I found this article insightful as I am sure, at sometime during our prep, we will absolutely hit a plateau. Enjoy.

Hi! Is there a way to print the logic games section from tests I've taken?
I want to redo them?
#help
I used to be able to find individual PTs to buy, but now I can't find the page. Could just be my fault.
I have taken PT 81,68,80, 66 & 79. Are there any recommendations which ones I should include these last few weeks? I generally take one every other day. Thanks - (I'll cross post this)
I was wondering if JY has any 'live-commentary' type of video where he completes a RC passage on the Digital Exam. I am taking the July Flex and struggle a lot with RC because I can't write notes on the passage.
I am a little confused about the weak answer and strong answer choice in necessary assumption question. So it said in the CC that we should always look for weak answer choice, and most strong answer choices are wrong when it comes to NA question.
But sometimes I also see strong answer choice as the correct answer. For example, PT 24 Section 2, Q17. The AC B : "no nation that was not among the major powers at the end of the second world war would become a major power"
Is this a strong language AC? So in a situation we should focus on weak/strong language AC?
Thank you!

Hey Guys,
Im looking for a study partner or group. I have been study for about a month, but I did take the May LSAT FLex (140). I have definitely been slacking in study because of lack of motivation. I would like us to keep each other motivated and also give each other tips and tricks. I also live in NY, your location doesn't matter to me because we can also DM or email each other. Cant wait to talk to some of you!
I am wondering if people are taking the time to fool proof the problem sets (10x+) and game board setup example questions? I feel like I should be fool proofing wherever possible, but I also recognize the time commitment. Any thoughts?
Just wanted to post as possible inspiration and as a thank you to JY and the entire 7sage community! When I first started studying I remember seeing people post things online that claimed to not anticipate an increase of over 10 points from your initial diagnostic; know that is completely untrue. If it wasn't for my intense, I mean, INTENSE lack of desire to take a gap year I would probably skip this cycle and keep at it for the 170. The test is absolutely learnable as long as you put in the work and you have patience with your brain as it learns how to process information in the way the test writers are looking for. I will be re-testing in an attempt to solidify my score in the 90th percentile (that insane RC and 4 hours of sleep really did me in on test day LOL). But I just wanted to say congratulations to all who completed this test during such a crazy year. If you feel yourself wanting to reach out don't hesitate to message me!
I know this is a great score, but my average for PTs was 176 so I was hoping for one a bit higher on test day. I know I messed up the LG on the June test which is usually a perfect section for me.
I want to retake, the only thing holding me back is the idea that some of the top schools like Harvard will be irritated if you retake a score that's already at their median. I've been studying so hard for this to make up for a lack of prestige for my undergraduate college and decent, but not amazing, softs.
My gut tells me I want to retake it because I think I can do better. I've also heard that getting a higher score could get you more scholarship money to lower T14s.
What do you all think? Should I retake it?
I have taken 2 preptest already and I am missing most of the "V.high" questions but get ALL "V.low" questions I get correct? Has anyone had trouble with this? Lower PT with higher BR
Cold diagnostic in April 2019 was 142, after over a year of studying solely with 7Sage (on and off due to working full time) I snagged a 169 with the June FLEX. Kudos to 7Sage for making such an affordable, effective studying platform.
Hi! I'm just wondering if anyone knows when the last 3 videos on Torts in the Law School site will go up? I'm awaiting them :)
Any suggestions on how to improve my in/out and double layered sequencing?
LG is keeping my score under 160.
Thnx.
159 --> 178. Still in shock, but I know I have a debt to pay J.Y. and the rest of the 7Sage Staff!
why is the answer e and not c? can someone break down the logic for me?
Scored 163 after completing the LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim, with 7Sage LG videos that were freely available back in February. I realized then I needed a better resource that could help me practice more methodically, and that's when I subscribed to 7Sage. 4 months have past since, and I got my 173 today! Thanks 7Sage
Hi all!
I'm looking for someone who wants to communicate regularly about progress/questions--someone who will keep me on track and motivated. I work full time so most communication would have to happen online, but I can guarantee that I'll be a reliable partner!
For context, I've been studying for about a year. I'm planning on taking the August test.
