I am trying to develop a system for figuring out when a full game board in needed on LG. I am struggling to get my time down while still getting the games right.

One idea I had was to try and go ahead with the questions as fast as possible and if I identify the need for a game board after a question or two, to spend a few minutes building out game boards and then go back to the questions. These feels a bit messy though

Any thoughts?

Thanks!

I took the May Flex exam and am signed up for July. I think I remember being able to talk to my proctor beforehand, like they talked to us and introduced themselves and made us follow the directions? That would be the best time to tell them about potential problems and stuff beforehand right? Like you could clear it up and be like please dont interrupt or if you find something wrong pause the time or whatever

Question about chest-playing programs.

I'm confused as to how this method can be used to compare chess-playing programs - to get the question right it seemed like you needed to know that you are only comparing one chess playing program to itself (there is no second program you are comparing to)? I'm having a hard time understanding how/why you would compare 1 chess playing program to itself run on two different computers.

Any insight?

Hi everyone. I did the Khan academy test prep, but made the mistake of really only doing the tests and not really trying to learn anything. I started 7sage a few weeks ago and am working my way through the CC now. I know I would like to have a tutor but I am curious when the best time to get a tutor is/when most people accept students. Is now a good time to seek a tutor? Or do I need to be doing PTs to benefit from a tutor? Thanks!

Hey guys! Does anyone know how the timing works for the flex? For example is it just 3 35 minute sessions consecutively? Are there breaks? Does anyone know where I could find more info about it?

Hi everyone! I'm taking the LSAT in August and thought it might be nice to have a group of folks to study with for the last couple of months. I'm currently scoring around 168-171 on PTs and am aiming for 170-175 on test day. Let me know if you're interested- if there's a pre-existing group I'd love to join as well. Thanks!

I've noticed that I do much better on the first two sections and much poorly on the last two, regardless of the category. Any tips on how to stay focused?

So... I have taken a PT and not completed BR for it... I was planning on doing it when I had more time, though now when I am trying to do the blind review, I cannot access it. Is there a way to do this that I am just not seeing?

I'm currently floating around mid to high 160s and I'm trying to consistently get into the170s (I'm taking the flex in July so I have about 3 weeks left). I'm drilling my weakest LR question types but I feel like it's not as productive as it can be. I make problem sets say for NA questions with a blend of Medium, Hard, Harder NA's from old exams and I do them untimed really trying go through each question (out of 15 fo them I get about give or take 2-4 wrong) but I haven't really seen an improvement in my LR scores, it's only been like missing 6 on average to missing like 5/4 on average now per LR section. Do people who have been in similar situations have any advice on improving and getting consistently -2/-3 on LR sections? Should I not be doing these drills untimed? In addition I also do timed LR sections btw but been really trying to get NA's and Weaken questions on lock.

I'm planning to take the February 2021 LSAT and am looking for a study group/study buddy that are also just getting started. Let me know if you're down!

How are you handling making notations on/for your RC - highlighting is not enough for me is the only tool available? I feel like I'm losing time writing down things.

Hi,

So the correct answer here was B. According to JY, B is right because the argument requires an assumption: that in order for direct mail advertising to not be bad for the environment, it needs to replace those who would normally buy something through car rather than getting new people to buy stuff. However, I didn't see this argument flaw because I didn't know how we could assume that direct mail advertising was bad for the environment at all-- after all, the stimulus only tells us why normal shopping is bad, and doesn't tell us that direct-mail advertising creates paper waste or anything like that. Creating paper waste or any negative effect of direct mail advertising in real life seems to be a scientific fact, and I thought that LSAT doesn't want us to create assumptions regarding scientific facts. As a result, the argument actually looked pretty sound to me, and none of the answer choices looked any good to me.

Can anyone explain to me how we are able to assume that direct-mail advertising is worse than not buying at all when the stimulus never seems to tell us that (thus making B correct)?

Thanks!

Best regards

Hey guys! Just graduated college and looking for an accountability partner (preferably someone who is taking the LSAT in October of this year) so we can avoid slacking off on self-studying. If you are interested, please let me know. I live in Cali BTW. :)

Hi.

I am curious whether it is possible to reset the analytics. For example , I've recently started studying full-time again and wish to delete my current Problem sets and completed PTs. I can't seem to figure out how to do this. Thanks.

I am hoping to compile a list of all the questions I have pinned (using the purple bin after finishing a problem set) in the past 5 months of studying. Any idea of how I can access this information?

Last thing I think about when I'm falling asleep and first thing I think about in the morning - HOW DID I DO????? IS IT GOING TO BE WAY LOWER THAN MY PT'S? HIGHER? OH GOD. Anyone have some tips to stay sane/personal experience with this?

Does everything work well on a Kindle? Are there any limitations?

Hi,

The correct answer here was E. I understand why the answer is E (because it shows an alternative explanation for the phenomena described in the stimulus), but I have trouble understanding why D is wrong. After all, if following the protocol actually works in curing infection, then doesn't that weaken the argument by showing how maybe it isn't the protocol that is counterproductive, but possibly something else that is causing the higher infection rates?

Thanks!

Best regards

Hey everyone, can somebody please help me out, I’ve been studying since March and am aiming for a 165. I average missing 4-5 per LR section, missing about 3 on LG, but RC is killing me. I’ll go anywhere from missing 5 to 12 and was wondering if anyone had any tips on how to improve. I plan to take the October exam and was thinking about taking 2 weeks and doing 2 RC sections a day (one in the morning untimed and one at night timed) any suggestions would be appreciated thank you!

hey guys, i took the June 2007 pt as a cold diagnostic in January as i started my LSAT journey and got annoyed at how low my score was, and deleted the results - horrible lapse of judgment - without blind reviewing as i didn't know how to effectively do it at the time. now im finally done the CC, after many breaks, and want to see how much better i got, but i realized i deleted the results so i cant go back and compare from the original. My question is, should i just retake the June 2007 pt and then blind review and see how they compare to the score of the cold diagnostic, or is it just a waste of time and just start PTing at PT1? thanks for any feedback.

Hey guys, I think I may have bitten off more than I can chew and need extra time to study. In the e-mail we got for the July 2020 LSAT-Flex, LSAC noted that there is an option to opt-out and get a coupon for any LSAT from Aug till next April, but they did not indicate a deadline. I tried e-mailing LSAC to ask if there is a deadline and haven't gotten a response yet. In your experience, has there been one? I'm trying to see if I can still study till I'm confident enough for the July LSAT-Flex, but I don't know how much time I have to make that decision. Would appreciate your thoughts!

This is the one question type I can't seem to be able to master after months of studying. I think my biggest problem is not having the right prephrase but overall just have a really hard time identifying subtle flaws. Does anyone have any suggestions that can help me improve identifying the flaw and also strategically eliminating answers?

What do people think about taking the LSAT again? In general is it a good idea and is it reasonable? On a personal note, I recently took the May LSAT Flex and I am signed up for the July test. I did good on the first one and have recently taken a few weeks off to focus on other things, but I came back to a PT today and got the same score as I had on test day. That made me think I could get a better score if I put a couple more weeks of prep into it. Does anyone have any advice from their own experiences about taking the LSAT more than once? Thanks everyone, 7Sage and its community have already raised my score a whole bunch and I am forever appreciative of everyone.

I understand that we're advised not to add anything from high school on our resumes, but I was wondering if there was a similar rule for personal statements? Is there a point where a story for your personal statement is considered too old to be considered relevant by an admissions board?

I'm still finishing up my undergrad, and hope to go straight through to law school, so a lot good number of stories that I find to be interesting about myself are from high school, including my "what made me want to study law" story.

If anyone has insight on this I'd love to hear from you!

I understand that splitting game boards is a good way to do up front work and go through the answers quickly, and splitting up the board helps most of the time. Also, I find that sometimes, there are more than six or seven questions where it is worth splitting up and getting several game boards, yet after doing several splits on some games for example: PT 26 section 1 game 1, I originally split the game into several boards, but I did much better when not automatically splitting the board and going through the questions without setting up the boards and which was more effective for me in getting the correct answers. I did make some errors in the original set up, but it took way too much time, yet setting up two or three boards on the fly for each question that required a deduction seemed to work out much better for me. Please advise on when is the best time to judge if it is more efficient to go straight into the questions, besides the amount of questions there are. Do any of you find any specific key identifiers that help you decide when you will split the game right away?
