Hello everyone, want to get a study group going for motivation! I started a discord and am planning to study mondays at 7pm EST, at least to start. If your interested please message me and I'll send you the discord!

I feel like I have been struggling a little bit with these questions, especially with the new core curriculum compared to the old one. Does anyone have any advice on how to approach these questions, especially when it comes to causal logic?

Hi! Taking the August LSAT, there were a couple questions that IMO ended up effectively being small logic games. I won't go into specifics, but I was wondering on strategy for these types of questions-- I wasted lots of time on one question and still couldn't figure it out. I would love to DM if anyone feels similarly!

Basically just above, my end goal is low 170s so not a big difference but I'm having a hard time getting even 168 or 169. There's no pattern to my wrong answers so I'm just looking for advice from people who were in my position at one time.

Hi,

I am currently at a plateau of 152 and I noticed that in timed conditions I struggle quite a bit with pre-phrasing, especially with inference-based questions, NA, WSE and RRE. I find that with WSE and RRE specifically, it is very difficult to pre-phrase because there is such a wide range of responses, and somehow I get quite a bit of NA questions wrong in timed conditions. Sometimes also, I just look at a question and struggle to see the "loophole" or the inference. I tend not to diagram because it slows me down too much and confuses me more in MBT/MSS questions. Sometimes I even "pre-phrase" an inference and then find it in the answer choices and it was wrong.

Also, I noticed that I perform consistently and significantly better on timed sections than on full PTs. I make more mistakes in full PTs than in timed sections -- especially in the first 2 sections of the test. Any ideas on why this may be?

I am aiming for between 157-160 and would appreciate any advice on pre-phrasing strategies, getting better at coming up with the right inference and consistency in test performance.

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone has gotten an accommodation letter for major anxiety (testing anxiety, panic disorder, etc.) and how your process went in getting the letter and LSAC accepting it? Was LSAC easy going with it or did you have to appeal at all/provide additional info? I've heard from some people that they prefer certain healthcare professionals to others.. not sure

Need some studying tips on a short timeline.

I’m still going through the rest of the curriculum and then intend to bang out PT tests, but I am taking the LSAT in Oct and probably again in Nov. I’m consistently getting only 2-3 correct on these drills. In reviewing my wrong answers, I fully understand where I erred, but I also don’t have the time to master each of these drill sections (at least I don't think I do).

My current mindset is to try and get through this curriculum, then bang out those PT tests since PT test do not categorize difficulty and question types. I’m worried if I spend too long on the drilling, I will lose sight that the actual tests is completely random in the questions types and difficulties that are chosen.

Any thoughts here are helpful as I orient my studying these last 1-2 months. Thank ya all and good luck.

Hi lovely people, I need some advice on how I can improve my score from high 150s to 160s for the October LSAT. My average score right now is 159.1. My best score is 163, but I haven't been doing well on my most recent PTs.

I'm struggling a lot with Flaw questions. The problem I have seems to be that although I managed to identify the flaw from reading the stimulus, once I moved on to the ACs, the wording confused me and I ended up picking the wrong AC.

Also, my RC score has been fluctuating from -3 to -9 and I don't even know what I'm doing right or wrong.

I have been doing BR and keeping a wrong answer journal from the beginning. I don't know what else to do. What should I be focusing on now? Keep doing more PT? Review Flaw questions and do more drills? Taking untimed RC drills?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Greetings, 7Sagers!

Hello,

I know that iA —most→ B → C, then you cannot conclude most A are C. But if it becomes:

A —most→ B → C→ D

can you conclude that most A are D?

DOES ANYONE HAVE A LINK FOR TODAYS NOON CLASS? THIS IS MY 4TH CLASS AND STILL NOT ABLE TO GET IN, LIKE WHERE IS THE LINK, THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING

Why don't drills show up on the analytics page?

Hey! Im from the Vancouver/Surrey Area and looking for a study buddy.

Does anyone want to study together? Im currently studying for LR and foundations.

Planning on taking the test in November!

Don't need an incredible score, just need a solid base in October in the high 150s. Any advice is helpful. I'm just struggling for the last few months in a study rut.

Hey guys,

I have an online study group where we BR together every week (PT146 this week) and also hold each other accountable for goals we set during the week. If you're not already in it, comment your info and I'll add you

So I'm scoring consistently in the 160/161, with BR of 163, and a one-time score 164. While I'm glad that I am at least accurate in my scores, I'm not sure how to break through, and become better in those specific areas. I've been doing focused drills, but clearly it's not having an effect yet.

Any tips/advice on how to approach this in a different way?

Thanks!

Howdy y'all! I just joined the 7Sage platform to study for the October test, which I didn't expect to be taking. Just took September (after Blueprint's 170+ live class) and I don't know if I actually broke 170, so here we go again.

I know that my biggest weakness is conditional/formal logic in LR... I have the basics down but kinda freak out when there's a 5-6 sentence stimulus that you're expected to diagram to find the missing link or what must be true.

Anyway... for the seasoned 7Sage studiers... what lessons/content do you recommend?? I don't want to go through the whole curriculum; I just want the full-fledged 7Sage take on complex diagramming LR questions. Tips/Recs? What materials should I read/watch/review?

In advance: THANK YOU!!!!

I feel like I should be doing practice questions as I go through the module. Does anyone have any insight or do you think the best way to do it is go through the course and do practice questions when they are given? And if you are doing practice questions along the way how are you putting them into your studying of the module. Thanks!

Hello!

Was recently diagnosed with ADHD in December of this year and I am currently studying for the LSAT using 7Sage, Loophole by Ellen Cassidy, The LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim, and The 10 Actuals LSAT PrepTests Volume V.

Would love to connect with others who have ADHD and are navigating the LSAT/7Sage material and brainstorm different study strategies + organizational strategies that are most effective for those of us with ADHD and provide mutual support.

Please let me know if you are interested!

It seems like I am incapable at doing the strengthening and weakening questions. I read the answer choices and just think that none of them make sense. I could use some advice.

So, I'm sure a lot of you are in the same boat as me and are panicking for the September LSAT. I am reaching out to ask people who have already written the test or are also writing it next week, what they are doing to prepare themselves for test day. I know I should get a good sleep, exercise, and eat to keep my energy intact but besides that, what's the best practice for these last 7 days? Should I be doing full practice tests every day, drilling, doing sections, or just relaxing? I know that I will probably not get my desired score, however, I want to put my all into this and not let my last 4 months of studying go to waste. I am also seeking any tips for how to keep up your momentum, considering the test is fairly condensed in 2 hours and 45 minutes.

My other area of concern is my argumentative writing sample. In the next week, I don't have any free time to complete it and was wondering when is the latest that I can complete it and still get my score on September 25th like everyone else? Also, I was planning to go into it blind, but have been told otherwise. How many practice samples should I complete? I don't want to waste my time, but at the same time, I want to be able to write a well-crafted essay.

Finally, for those who have done remote testing, when do you recommend setting up the test software and is 30 minutes before the exam a sufficient amount of time to log in and get settled in with the proctor?

For anyone who has reached this far and takes the time out of their day to ease my anxiety by replying to my thread, thank you in advance and good luck to you all!

Hi everyone, just a question for people who might have used the Ctrl + F function on the real LSAT with a proctor.

I was wondering if there were any cases where the proctor did not know if it was allowed for us to use that function, and if so what happened!

I have an accommodation for no experimental section -- is there a way to take practice tests in this format?
