Am I just blind or is there no information on WUSTL's fee waiver policy on their website? I got an email with a "request a fee waiver" button but it just redirects to your email app. I can't find out whether I should bother requesting a merit based fee waiver or not.

Hello!

Im having trouble with logical opposites.

Is "not all= some are not"

Is the logical opposite of

"some are not= all"

Thank u so much! :)

I pre-ordered this on Amazon and got notice just now that it shipped today and will be here Wednesday.

Since the September LSAT I have scaled WAY back on studying for the test. I have gone from doing multiple sections a day, 5 days a week, with a five section PT on day 6., To doing only three or four sections a week with a PT every 2 weeks. Since I've scaled back my studying, I have yet to score below a 170 on a PT. While this is amazing for me, and I've noticed a ton of improvement because of skipping strategies and a new outlook on RC, I am still really worried that it will not translate to reality on Dec 2.

What can I do to ensure that I preform to the best of my capabilities on test day?

What I've already done:

I have started running again.

I have cut a substantial amount of sugar from my diet (no more soda).

I make time for myself to relax (beat Mario Odyssey and watched Stranger Things).

Worked close with 7Sagers to help vent about the test, continued meetings with an awesome Sager every week!

Feel calmer during tests and implemented a new skipping strategy based on advice from @"Cant Get Right"

Communicated directly with the only law school I now want to attend and have begun working on apps.

I still have this fear in the back of my mind that something will go awry come December and that I'll panic during the test and under preform again. Does anyone have other suggestions on what I can do to prevent catastrophic failure come test day?

Yesterday I finally finished the curriculum part of the course and decided to take my first PTA to see how much I've learned. To be frank, the whole experience was a disaster. I ran out of time on 3 out of 4 sections, on LG I didn't have enough time to do one of the games at all. While doing LR my mind would not function by the newely learned rules of finding premises and conclusions, and basically the whole test felt like brute force all the way through.

Obviously, I didn't do great, but what defeated me completely was the fact that I scored even lower on this PTA than on my very first dry run LSAT test that I took back in September prior to taking this course. Just the thought of this paralyzed me.

Now with under 4 weeks left before the December exam (that I must take because I already applied and paid money to get into the univesity of my choice), I think I really need some advice or guidence. I am not going to give up and now I think maybe I shouldn't have jumped into full PTA right away. Would you recommend doing timed sections or maybe a certain amount of questions first? I feel like I'm missing something, and any advice will be appreciated!

Thank you all for reading through.

Hi all, it's not a serious mistake but I noticed in S4 (the 2nd LR) that the first page says "22 questions" when really it's out of 25. Not sure if that's LSAC or 7Sage's doing, and it doesn't really affect anything. I just wanted to point it out; I know I was confused when I saw it

Hello Everyone! I recently took a PT and I was very sad by the results. I am still in the 150s after hours of drilling and reviewing (Started in 146). My last pt was an 152 and this pt was a 152. I took a month in between the two test solely for drilling by type. My weakest is LG, but I have not started really fool proofing solely LG. I have put more time in LR and I am seeing results but it varies dramatically per section. For example, last pt I got only 9 right on the first LR and 18 right on the second LR section. I have went back to CC and went over some weak areas. Yet, this does not seem to be enough. For the sake of transparency, my BR score is in the 160s. (161 this last pt, 165 the pt before that one). However, I am at a lost. Because of this, I think I just need a break. Being in school has been difficult because I put more time in the LSAT then my own studies and I feel like I'm not seeing adequate results. Any opinions on whether I should take a break for the rest of this semester and start back in January? Has anyone took that long of a break and found it helpful. Thank you.

Proctors: 4 proctors per room, one reading, 2 pacing

Facilities:new testing center used for other large tests ie accoutning

What kind of room: room with no windows, well lit

How many in the room:12

Desks: tables 4x2' ish?

Left-handed accommodation: own table so not necessary

Noise levels:minimal, except for proctors (note later)

Parking: easy

Time elapsed from arrival to test: 4.5 hrs

Irregularities or mishaps:none really

Other comments: the proctor wore the most obnoxiously loud shoes and often lingered around you while testing. I understand this is required, but it got bad enough to where multiple people considered saying something

Would you take the test here again? I am in december

Date[s] of Exam[s]: Sept 2017

Hello all!

I have a couple of questions. Right now I am getting a lot of LR questions wrong. My average LR right now is -8. I am taking the December LSAT. My first question is that is possible to improve to -2 per section with the time left? I have going over the question types I have seriously been missing on with the LR 1-20 book. How I've been using this book is doing full sections of one type of question, scoring it and going over them. Are there other strategies that you all would recommend? My top 3 missed are NA, PSA, and Flaw. I really hope I can make this happen before December second!

Hi everyone:

Hoping to get some advice on negotiating scholarship offer. Has anyone had success?

Even with money offered, these schools are crazy expensive!

Thanks.

Hey, guys! LG is my best section but I rely a lot on brute force. Do you guys think it's more beneficial to time myself doing an entire LG section, or doing one game at a time? I think doing one game at a time encourages brute forcing for me because I know I have 8 mins for each game. Each game doesn't necessarily take 8 mins and some may take 11 mins. I always try to split boards and make inferences during BR but I panic and move on after my initial board when doing a PT and end up drawing many boards along the way and brute forcing. What do you guys think? I normally finish with ~ 1 min left but I'm still not - 0.

Anyone have a good way to remember how to diagram/translate unless statements? I still trip up on those.

It has been a while since I posted last time. I'm preparing for December LSAT. School work takes me lots of time.I'm currently taking Master of Jurisprudence at UW. I took some classes with JD,LLM students. Law school seems less intriguing to me.

Yet, I want to give a shot for LSAT.My weak part is RC. I'm currently got -8, 9 for RC. I wonder if hiring a RC tutor will be helpful and if yes, how I work with the tutor.

Hey guys,

So I am beginning timing now but I am unsure of how to approach this for the December test. I am BRing an average of 165-168. My timed score averages from 150 all the way to 159. I am aiming for above 162 for sure.

What do you guys recommend?

Should I dedicate one day to two days per section type and see what works (but I feel like my LR section suffers when I don't consistently do questions) ?

LR is my weakest section in terms of timing and LG is my strongest but I can definitely improve on all three sections. Considering my target score, what will be the most effective? What do you suggest?

How should I approach these few weeks before the December test? I need more like a study plan/schedule for these couple of weeks I guess... Kind of lost and all over the place right now.

Like today, I basically tried timing strategies for all three sections and found nothing helped other than the fact that I did better on LG. It was stress juggling all three sections on one day.

If you took the LSAT in September and had to wait several weeks for your results, did you continue with your study schedule just in case you needed to test again in December? How long did it take to get your results?

I took a PT this past Saturday and got a 150. LR was -9, -12, RC -8, LG -14 (Yikes!) I did not BR the RC and my BR score was 165

Should I focus the majority of my time drilling LG this month? I'm taking the December LSAT. Postponing is not an option.

LG tends to be my worst section.

Please let me know!

Thanks

7Sagers,

On Monday, November 13, at 9 p.m. ET, three 7Sage editors and I will host an admissions webinar. We’ll start with a round of Just One Thing, in which we each offer you a single piece of advice for the application season.

After that, we’ll do live lightning consultations. We’ll call on you one at a time and try to be as helpful as possible in five minutes or less. We can brainstorm personal statement topics, strategize about addenda, discuss LORs, or answer general admissions questions.

:cookie: After the webinar, we’ll give one attendee a free critique of a personal statement or résumé.

:warning: You’ll have to register for this webinar in advance.

→ Please register for the webinar (Nov 13, 2017 @ 9:00 p.m. ET) here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/register/4205980907963380995

After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

We hope to see you there!

Can someone explain section 1 Q 15 to me on the 7Sage practice test? I'm really struggling. Here's my logic:

W1: G (by rule)

W2: T (by rule)

W3: can't be G because G must come directly before J and J can't be W4

W4: Cant be J (by rule)

W5: Must be G (by rule)

W6: Must be J (has to be one stop min)

W7: T (by rule)

This only leaves Martinique x2 for weeks 3 and 4. But the rules state G must take place between those 2 trips....

Help....please! lol

https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-june-2007-section-1-game-3/

Proposition questions: should I approach these like an inference question or a principle question? I've read different things. Example of this question type is PT 82 section 2 question 14.

Thanks in advance!

Hi All,

I want to have all my apps in by end of February and really want to enroll in Fall 2018. I am currently scoring in the150s and studying while working full time ( been studying since end of July). I plan to take December's test and then study all of January ( hopefully not working at all) and take again in February.

Wondering if anyone could help weigh in on whether or not this sounds crazy... I am 30 and don't want to wait another year to go to law school, but do currently have student loan debt from a Masters in Studio Art so scholarship $$ will be a significant factor.

Thanks,

P

Looking for advice as to how comfortable you should be with a section (LR, LG, RC) before moving onto the next one. Is it best to feel extremely confident in the section before moving on, or should I just try to make my way through the CC before working towards mastery?

Is it okay to name the school in a personal statement? I have a school that I really want to attend and in my final paragraph want to say something like;

or something like that. Is this okay to do or is it frowned against?

I just finished PT 73 and got 6 wrong in the 26-question LR section. I had about 5 min left after I finished the first round and circled 4 questions (answered but wanted to double check). I checked them all with the time left. However, none of the circled questions were wrong. I re-read the wrong questions without checking the videos and easily find where goes wrong: I mis-read a lot and moved on without checking all answers.

How do you avoid mis-reading, particularly in LR?

I have been studying since May and have improved greatly. My LG sections have gone from -15 to -5, but I want to go -0 or -2. On the September test, I went -11 for each LR and RC section, which is high for me. I usually score between 155-160 on practice tests, but I scored 151 on the September test. I have done blind review and can’t figure out what I’m doing wrong. I feel like I have a good grasp on conditional logic, but I keep missing so many questions. How can I get my score to the mid to high 160s in one month?

I know that I should already know this, but I unfortunately don't. Should my LSAC GPA be on my resume and the blank in the education section in my application? I originally put down the GPA that is on my school's transcript.

The difference is just 0.01 (so basically nothing), but I just wanted to make sure.

Any help would be really appreciated! :)
