September'18 Study Group | Blind Review PT 79 | Friday, August 10th | 7:30 PM EST
Hey everyone! For those that are unaware, there is going to be an AMA (Ask me Anything) on Thursday, August 9th 9:00 PM ET with JY and David Busis. That will probably conflict with our review session. So! If you plan on joining the group for the review session of PT 79, please vote on whether you would like to start our session early on Thursday (6:30 PM ET) or would like to have our session on Friday, August 10th instead.
Edit: As per the vote, our meeting will be Friday, August 10 7pm EST (Yay democracy)
Also, if you are interested in attending the AMA here is the link, you have to register beforehand so please be sure to do so https://7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/17112/ama-webinar-with-david-and-j-y-thursday-aug-9-9-p-m-et
Also! When you join the call, please be sure to have your first name and your 7sage handle in brackets so it's easy to keep track
If you are done the curriculum or almost done the curriculum, join us when you can. We welcome people in all stages of prep. The point of the group is to get your lsat nerd on with other like-minded people and make the process more fun. Expand your thinking and learning by interacting with others! For my fellow shy-people, everyone is going to be focused on their own answers/questions that I guarantee you they will not be judging you based on mispronounced words, reading-speed, etc. It's all for fun!
Note: Take the PT under timed conditions; BR to the best of your abilities; join us for all or part of the call! For the purposes of the group please don't check the answers beforehand. If you happen to know the answer, keep it to yourself, and win the argument using your reasoning. Also, please don't go "so I know the answer is C but I don't know why B is wrong?" as the purpose is so that we all collaborate on improving our reasoning skills.
Enter the questions you wish to go over on the spreadsheet below! Write your name beside the question(s) you wish to cover, if the question(s) you want to cover are already marked by someone else, add your name! The more discussion, the merrier.

@"Kristen B" I hope we are! I'm still BR-ing. I haven't joined you guys the last few weeks because I was drilling LG and LR but am excited to talk to everyone
oh and game 4 tried to murder me. still recuperating.
@"Kristen B" Yes we are! Maybe people are just feeling shy.
@Nefertari We also had the infamous Eileen Gray passage.
@Nefertari Haha! I totally agree. This group has been so helpful
I totally agree, that game was evil smh.
@keets993 Great! Sounds good.
Hi guys! Do you know where in the cc JY goes over evaluate questions like #17 in section 1 in PT79? I remember @"alyhobbs" had notes taken on these types of questions. I definitely need to review them!
The only time I ever remembering seeing any notes from JY on evaluate is here https://7sage.com/lesson/how-lr-question-stems-are-related/
A while back when I was finishing up the CC I was did some heavy search through the discussion forum and gathered up all the notes I could. I have a lot of notes on different question types so if anyone needs anything specific let me know. I reached out and asked 7sage if I could post my notes but they said no because it is so thorough and many of it is paid content and would possibly deter people from purchasing a course. Which I understand completely. But I think if you have purchased a course and need some notes then I should be able to help without breaking any rules. Here is what I found on one of the discussions specifically for Evaluate question types.
· Evaluate the Argument (EV)
o Assume: the premises are true; don't worry about finding a specific flaw.
o Identify: a variable in the argument that would help make the conclusion stronger/weaker (i.e. it's relevant to the argument).
o Trap Answers:
§ out of scope
§ apply only to the premise OR conclusion, NOT the connection between them.
o PICK A VARIABLE WITHIN THE ARGUMENT THAT WOULD HELP YOU MAKE THE CONCLUSION STRONGER/WEAKER
-- (Stimulus --> Answers)
-- Outside Info: YES
o Stem Examples
§ "...would be most helpful to know in evaluating the argument..."
§ "...to evaluate the argument above, it would be most useful to know..."
Here are some useful links to some of the notes I found on the discussion forum.
