I'm going to be the new Saturday BR Group leader! Hello, friends Except I won't be here next Saturday (November 5) cause someone scheduled work, why Boss why?


Yes, all my gifs will be Harry Potter related.

The Full Schedule

And if you’d like to see the full schedule for upcoming reviews, here it is: https://calendar.google.com/calendar/embed?src=h14k4idvt1lb4hp5ujds97qt7k@group.calendar.google.com&ctz=America/New_York

Note:

• For everyone: take the PT under timed conditions; BR as you are able on your own; then join us for all or part of the call—everyone is welcome.
  
• Note: For the purposes of the call, we like to check our group blind review score together at the very end of the call So at least don't say ... "No guys, really, it's D, I checked it.” KEEP THE CORRECT ANSWER TO YOURSELF. Win the argument with your reasoning.
  
• These groups work best when folks from ALL stages of prep and with all different goals join in! Not just for "super-preppers" and definitely not just for the casual LSATer (does such a person exist?).
  
• The only expectation anyone has for these calls is for you to have fun and ask questions as you desire. We are just a bunch of LSAT lovers who gather via GoToMeeting and intellectually slaughter each test.

Excellent!

For those of you who may not know Benjamin, he's done a LOT of work behind the scenes. He developed our excellent schedule leading up to the September test and he led the initial drive to restart the group once the old, test-date specific groups had finished and their participants had tested. So glad you're ready to PT with us @bjphillips5 !

Sorry I am new to this BR review thing. Are we meeting online and discuss over questions we are not familiar with? How long on average is the session? Are supposed to go over every question and is there a teacher who will be answering the questions? Thanks!!

Also, I printed out the BR review calendar and am just wondering how are the PTs selected? I saw several repeats and don't wanna to miss anyone. Thanks!

Hi @lucidream0621 and welcome!

This is how BR calls work. Everyone takes the PT listed (this week 66) before the call. Ideally, you have a chance to Blind review on your own first, but it's okay if you haven't. Then, we go through all the LR questions on that specific PT. If everyone has the same answer for an LR question and no one has questions on it, we don't discuss it. But if someone had trouble with an LR question or the group doesn't initially agree on the correct answer, we go through the question together.

The group is both teacher and student. Anyone can volunteer to help someone work through a question that they're struggling with. This is super beneficial to both parties because teaching the LSAT is a really great way of reinforcing your present understanding or you get a personalized lesson on a question you struggled with.

Usually the calls take between 2-3 hours, especially if a decent sized group is present. The schedule was selected partially by group leaders and 7Sage staff. It's designed to give people choice (3 calls per week) and a variety of tests. But all in all, it adds a social component to the LSAT journey. You're sharing some of the burden of this test with the group and we're all picking each other up. I hope you join us

Damn I've already taken 66

bjphillips5

@KWoulf13 It might still be worth joining? Doesn't hurt to review and/or help people work through difficult LR. I took it months ago, personally

Not Ralph Nader

Thanks for the BR call it was really helpful.

bjphillips5

@"Not Ralph Nader" Glad you could make it! Good questions

@bjphillips5 Hi! Could you add me please:)

Hey, there was a question in the Wed BR call thread about the BR schedule for this Sat since PT79 hasn't been released yet. So sorry I commented and didn't tag you:(

Looking forward to seeing which PT is picked and hope to join:)
