We had another great BR session on Saturday and finished the parts of the Nov. test (PT 86) that we were unable to go over in JY's group sessions. Next we're taking PT 50 and meeting to BR it on Sat., Feb. 2. I've been hosting in the fancypants lounge area of my building in Long Island City, Queens. We've had about 4 people each time, and I make snacks. Please message me if you're interested.

    Is everyone ready to get down with some riddled basins of attraction?! Excited to BR PT50 this Sat. Feb. 2 in my LIC lounge. Please bring a clean copy of the whole test that just has all of the ?s you chose for BR circled. We'll prioritize once we convene and get through as much as we can. I'm flexible for the start time. Just let me know ASAP what works best for you guys, and I'll have snacks ready. Tagging those I know are interested but any 7Sager is welcome as long as you're prepared. Message me privately if you need my address.

    Hey! I'm in New York and might be able to join down the line. Do you guys pick which PT to review as you meet or is there a tentative schedule?

    I'm registered for July and my plan is to take a PT every ten days or so starting at PT65 this upcoming week.

    Hi! We pick PTs as we go, and we decide our meetup dates as we go, as well. You're welcome to hop on board when you're ready. After we meet this Saturday, I'll post again with details about how we are proceeding.

    @2ndTimestheCharm gotcha! I hope Saturday goes well.

    Are folks in the group taking in March or most likely in the summer/fall? I feel like July is so far away (probably since it's about -5 degrees right now) but then also right around the corner!

    Hi @2ndTimestheCharm count me in again. However, I don't think I'll be able to stop by until 2:30pm. If that's too late for everyone, please feel free to go ahead and get started without me!

    Note to self: Check train schedule for this weekend LOL

    Around 2 or 2:30 also works for me!

    Let's gather at 2pm, and if people trickle in, that's ok.

    The three of us who have been consistently meeting took the November test, and I’m planning to retake in both June and July.

    It ended up being just me and skhan012018 today, but we had a great session. We got through sections 2 (LR) and 3 (LG) of PT50. I propose we get together on Sat., Feb. 16 to BR sections 1 (RC) and 4 (LR). We also decided it would be good to do PT60 next.

    This Sat., Feb. 16, is when we really get down with some riddled basins of attraction! Excited to BR PT50, sections 1 (RC) and 4 (LR). Please bring a clean copy of the whole test that just has all of the ?s you chose for BR circled. We'll prioritize the RC and get through as much as we can. The lounge my LIC building is booked until 2, so we'll start at 2:30, and people can leave when they need to leave. I'll have snacks ready, as usual.

    Today's session made us all world-renowned experts on riddled basins of attraction. We got through most of the rest of PT50 (fun fact: JY's official admin:) and so we're moving on to PT60. We're planning to meet again next Saturday, but we'll confirm as it gets closer.

    Hello! The lounge is booked until 3pm. Are you guys down to work from 3:30-6:30 this Saturday? We'll be BRing PT 60, one LR section and the RC section. Let me know if that time window is good or if we should postpone.

    Hey @2ndTimestheCharm any idea yet for which sections we'd want to go over in order of priority?

  • 2ndTimestheCharm2ndTimestheCharm Alum Member
    edited March 2019 1810 karma

    Not yet. Taking 69 today and 70 on Friday. If anyone has suggestions, I'm open to anything. Praying the room is free for us on Saturday. I'll find out for sure tomorrow. Does 2-6pm sound fine?

  • Waffle23Waffle23 Alum Member
    603 karma

    For me, it would be more like 2:30-5:45pm. But you guys are free to go ahead and get started

    Good news! The room is free! Please join us at 2pm this Saturday, March 16, to BR PT 70. Hopefully we can get through all of RC and one LR section. I think it's best if we're all looking at clean (unmarked) copies. I'd love to start promptly at 2pm, so @skhan012018 - please let us know if there's anything we should be sure not to start with so you don't miss it.

All 7Sagers are welcome, but you need to have already taken PT 70 under timed conditions, or at least just the two sections we're BRing, which will be sections 1 and 2 (the first LR and the RC). Cheers and happy studying!

  • Waffle23Waffle23 Alum Member
    603 karma

    Hi, I think if you guys start with LR, I would be ok with that. I think it’d be more useful to go over the RC as a group

  • 2ndTimestheCharm2ndTimestheCharm Alum Member
    1810 karma

    OK, cool. Looking forward to seeing you guys! I also suggest we do the RC section in reverse. I found the first passage to be the easiest and the last passage the hardest.

    Hey! Does anyone want to BR one LR section and the RC from PT71 this Saturday, March 23, live in LIC, Queens? It's one stop from Grand Central on the 7 train. The lounge is free until 4pm, and we could start as early as anyone wants. I'm also open to doing a different PT if there's interest. I've taken most of them...
