Hey everyone,

I am curious does 7sage have anything similar to lsat demon with question bank and video explainations following it? Thank you

Is "often" quantifiable?

Hi y'all,

Thanks to those in advance who respond, these discussion forums and people's experiences have been pivotal in my success and progress.

I began my LSAT studies around late March and found 7sage at the beginning of April. I quickly switched and committed to JY's genius and this system. I've been studying around 45-50 hours a week (some days over 10, some days around 6-7 cause of work). I took my first timed digital test 5 days ago (and first timed test period) and hit 169. I then took another 2 days ago after comprehensive blind review and watching every dang explanation of the previous test, and hit 175. At this point I'm really ambivalent. I'm taking the test in October and want to aim for the 180 and not become too comfortable for fear of hitting below like 175-6 or something but I'm also beginning to feel the wear and tear. I've finally seen the fruits of my labor but know that, while I could, it might be counter-productive do this every single day until the end of October. After a month or so without a day off, I feel like taking a day or so helps with the next two weeks, but I never know WHEN or HOW to do this. When I'm not studying all I do is think about the test and I just want to study. How have you high scorers known when and how to pace yourself about 2.5 months before an exam? I know I'm really close, but refuse to take in September (NOT A MORNING PERSON)- so October is my bet to have apps ready early enough.

Hi all! My CAS GPA is a 3.49. I just finished my degree this summer, and I'm applying this fall (planning to have apps submitted by late October/early November). I haven't taken the LSAT yet, but I've been consistently score in the mid/high 170s on all practice tests (highest score 177). If I do get around a 175 in September, what are my chances for admission at a T14 school realistically? Most of the splitter info I've seen was regarding numbers closer to 3.0-3.3 GPA and 170-172 LSAT, and nothing closer to my numbers. Also, another question, what is considered a safe school for a splitter? At schools where my GPA is the median, my LSAT is usually far above the 75th percentile, so I'm not sure where I should be aiming for safe schools. Thanks in advance!

Additional info about my low GPA (some will be included on apps in an addendum):

Other application materials I'll be including:

Was gonna register for October LSAT but found out that no test centers available in NYC now and have to submit a waitlist...Is LSAC gonna add more test centers? Is anyone having the same issue as me? Should I submit waitlist now or should I come back on a later date?

Hey everyone! rather than buying a $500 surface pro tablet to take PT's on, i've been searching for a cheaper, effective alternative. Preferably a tablet in the $100-$200 range that is compatible with google chrome (for 7sage of course) and meets the same screen specifications (10 Inches). If anyone has found a substitute or has any suggestions, please don't be shy!

thanks!

Is it recommended to take the unclosed test? Am aiming to get into the 2020 session into the University of Toronto, so was planning to do the October test , so I had two more chances to take repeats for a better score. Any suggestions?

Why don't I see any questions in the question bank? When I select 'Qbank' in the menu, it says there are 0 questions available.

Hi all,

I've been studying for a little over 7 months but I've always had trouble with Sufficient Assumption and Pseudo Sufficient Assumption questions. I get them right a lot of the time but it takes forever, and writing out the lawgic often makes it worse for me.

I don't think JYs method works for me very well. I understand the principles of lawgic but I have a lot of trouble when the logic chains they present use slightly different subjects/are not worded in the same way. It's also really easy for my brain to get it all jumbled.

Anyone else have this issue? What worked for you?

Are there other methods for approaching these outside of writing out logic chains that can work?

They open fine on my phone but that's not ideal for LG. Also can't see all of the comments on my laptop. What am I doing wrong?

TIA

Hi,

The LSAC CAS instructions are incredibly confusing. I'm wondering if anyone has an answer to this.

I began grad school at Imperial College London in Sept. 2018. I have finished the program, although I won't have my final marks or technically receive a degree until November. In one month, I am beginning a second MA degree at University of Edinburgh. Do I need to request/upload either of these transcripts (even if they are partially complete)? Both are graduate degree programs at international institutions.

Thank you!

Hi all,

While the majority of the schools I will be applying to this fall allow a résumé between 1-3 pages, or have no limit at all, there are a few which have a strict 1 page, 12 pt font requirement. Any tips or suggestions on how to pare down the finalized 2 page résumé I have in to a 1page one for those few schools? I would appreciate any input on what should be cut and what should be highlighted with such limited space.

Thanks!

Where is the databank? Also when doing a study schedule why does it just go down the line and not introduce us to reading comprehension and logic games earlier in the process?

I just wanted to see if there was any way to access CC for the video lessons? I'm limited in when I can hear the videos, so was curious if there was a way to do this

Thanks!

Hey friends

I need someone to BR with! Or, we can form a group :)

It can be in the evenings on skype/imessage, or in person (if you are from mtl)

I am writing this september, and likely again in october or november

I need a 165~ to get into U of T

I last scored 152ish when I wrote, and am focusing on mastering my LR theory before I got back to doing PTs. So far, i am doing lots better!

Pros:

How much would it affect my chances if I were to apply in November/December as opposed to October/November?

I’m asking more specifically towards the T14 schools.

Please advise on how to do the highlight function, I bought the tablet to do the beta tester and it's not working :( using Chrome and Android. In the 7sage app it doesn't work either

Hi fellow LSATers,

I think I might have posted this question on Khan Academy, but I don't think I've ever heard back, so here it is:

Khan Academy has these 5 section practice tests that we can take for free online. Any of you know whether these tests are from the past LSAT exams, or whether they were created separately by Khan Academy for the practice purposes. If the former, do you know if there is a way for us to find out which PTs they are from?

Thanks!

Daniel

Not sure how to word this but;

how do you all set up your in-out board to represent a not both rule when the rule has an and/or statement in it.

For example If A is in then B and C are out or vise versa.

If it was just A -> /B then I know I can put A/B in my out group, but I'm not sure how to represent it when there's an and involved.

Does that make sense?

I've found that the Problem set creator automatically gives you under 35 minutes to complete single LR section. Is there a way to change that so it's the full 35 minutes?

Hi Everyone,

I want to help others with understanding LR and would love to help people see improvement. I have been studying for the LSAT for over a year, and average around -3/-5 on LR and have scored in the upper 160s (167 highest) thus far. Obviously I am not a master at LR but am hoping to help people who are maybe just beginning see some things I wish I saw when I first started studying. Hoping we can improve together! Message me for details and if you want to get started!! :)

Hi peeps, I've been having big fluctuations in my PT performance. I'm a night owl, and have been forcing myself to get up early (and go to bed earlier) to start doing tests from 9:30am. I've also done tests in the afternoon, when I'm less stressed and more awake, the highest and lowest difference would be 165-153. I feel that even though I can get up even earlier in the morning and prepare for the test, the general stress I feel in the morning is just much worse. (I guess morning isn't really for me.) How can I manage/control my mornings better as a night owl?

I took the online writing yesterday, and I forgot to show both sides of the paper during the room examination recording. I showed it as soon as the test actually started, but I’m not sure if that will still count. I was just nervous, and I forgot to do it during the room examination. Should I contact LSAC on Monday and ask if this is still okay?

I'm only 40% of the starter curriculum and the test is now in a month! I know I can't get through 100% of the curriculum simply because I don't have enough time in the day to dedicate to studying since I have other responsibilities. Anyone else feel nervous? (Also first time taker here)

I just gave my 7th PT and I bombed it. PT 72 is my lowest score so far with a 153 actual score. I was scoring in mid 160s for my previous 3 prep tests so I don't really know what happened with this particular one. I'm planning on taking the test in October and targeting to give 1-2 Prep tests each week.

Any advice on how I should move ahead? LR is currently my weakest section and I'm in the midst of foolproofing LG.

Would really appreciate some advice from anyone who's been in this position!
