NEW June 2017 Study/BR Group!

Hey Yall!

We have a new study group geared for those of you who are planning on taking the June 2017 LSAT. This post is to gauge interest and to give you all a heads up about the new LSAT study group. Below I have posted a schedule that is very flexible. This is a new feature of the study group. This means that those of you who attend will get to help decide what PTs we take, what day and time you want to BR them, when we want to take breaks (we'll adjust the schedule for holidays), and what question types and LSAT sections we workshop with Sages etc. I really want this to be more than a Blind Review group, so it is to your advantage to be vocal during the study group session about what particular PTs we should switch in (provided we start with the lower number PTs and work in ascending order). You (the June2017 LSAT taker) should also speak up about what issues, question types, LSAT sections etc we should look into work-shopping when we meet.

Comment below if you would like me to tag you for our first meeting on December 3rd at 5pm EST and complete the attached poll to provide feedback for the date that we will meet next, after the initial December 3rd meeting.

Note this is subject to change to reflect the needs of the group.

I'm really looking forward to this and I can't wait to begin studying with you!

    Looking forward to this study group because I'll be taking in June most likely!

    Are the tests going to be done in order starting with 36?

    Hey @"Alex Divine" if we started in the 30s we'll have to cut from the 70s or from a break. Check out the schedule so far. Since the PTs in the 30s are from the 7Sage "easiest test prep set" we could take them on our own. If enough people want to cut a break or random issue day in the schedule though to fit a 30s PT though---we'll do it. It's up to y'all who show up!

    @twssmith gotcha!

    Question: the pep rally is scheduled for Friday, June 2nd, but the June '17 LSAT is scheduled for Monday, June 12, 2017. What do we do that last week+? (I'm new to 7Sage).

    Question: sometimes I will not be able to attend the scheduled sessions, whatever days they are on--is that OK?

    Sorry, one last question: I'm new to 7Sage, so I'm not entirely clear about the scheduling, and yes, I'm "doing it wrong" for the most part (forced to pick LSAT dates, and THEN adjust my study schedule accordingly), but...what should we be prepared for by PT session time? Do the PT, then BR it, and hold off doing anything else to it (especially "grading it") until we have the BR study session?

    Thanks for hosting this! (I am in dire need of getting my act together like all you smart people have obviously done.)

    Gotcha @dml277 @BinghamtonDave haha @"Alex Divine"

    @ScooterMinion yeah the schedule is a SUPER rough draft, aka it'll 100% change, it as in don't get attached to it at all. I'll make the pep rally that last week OR if JY does another PT BR session we may want to schedule that in sometime (idk why we wouldn't tbh). It's an outline, so think of it as a guideline that the core study group will certainly change to reflect the needs of the group. We'll definitely have a pep rally. Don't worry, flexibility is a new feature of BR/study groups so we'll figure it out...trust----I won't leave you alone to hype yourself up for the exam.

    That's cool if you can't attend. The schedule is going to change as in, if everyone wants to meet on Wednesday at 6pm for example the next time, then we will. I'll give y'all notice and post on the discussion board in study groups when each meeting is, so you'll have ample notice.

    Definitely finish the core curriculum, drill down your problem areas, and fool proof more early PT logic games. This way you'll be in good shape to not to make as many mistakes due to not understanding of the fundamentals. We have about two weeks, so I'll be reviewing the cc too!

    Hi Please tag me! This will be my first time joining a blind review group, so I am not familiar with how it is supposed to work. Is it necessary to purchase the 7sage course packages?

    @877blessed and @mnrahall I'm glad you will be joining us--welcome! Please finish the core curriculum before you PT. This way you'll ideally have the basics down and this will save you a lot of struggling with the fundamentals. Review the lessons on how to properly blind review too and you'll be good to go.

    @a.ruqaiia hmm to my knowledge it is unprecedented to join a blind review group without doing the 7sage curriculum. I highly recommend getting a package, especially because the blind review method is a 7sage concept that is explained in the curriculum. I would advise not participating in this group without having gone through the 7sage core curriculum.

    gotcha @jennagould60 @Citygirl @aaronmorris222 @bswise2 @KWoulf13
    you're welcome @mckenzieleanne10 @hhhiser_06 @DinnerAtSix :)

    Hi @patriciafreeney there is no particular requirement to join the group. All that is recommended is that you take the test before you come to the call. In addition to taking the test, I would also highly recommend doing a blind review by yourself of the test before the call.
