I feel like this is risky enough (with students complaining that both answers are right) that LSAC wouldn't give both in the same question unless the stimulus matched one exactly. But if I had to pick I'd lean towards (1). In the end A --> B, B--…
@TakingOnTheBeast, @"Lime Green Dot"
I don't remember exactly what I said anymore, but I know I got to a point where I felt so good with the form/mechanics that they turned into instinct that I could use in stressful situations--almost like learned…
I would do all of the in-lesson quizzes, but leave some of the actual problem sets for later. Since the problem sets tend to increase in difficulty, if you're struggling a bit more with the lesson I recommend going in order one by one until you you'…
Definitely don't let it get to you! One-off score drops are pretty normal.
For now I recommend just reviewing effectively to figure out what went wrong (hopefully your BR score didn't change much from your average BR?), drilling, and taking your ne…
Before I start I need to say that I highly, highly doubt that the individual questions on the flex are easier--they're supposed to be from undisclosed exams.
But I do agree with others in that the length of the flex exam likely makes stamina less o…
I applied in September and most of my results came back in January-March. One school I applied to got back to me almost seven months later though so it can be a long haul.
Other than work, I read a lot of novels, caught up on shows my friends had r…
I tended to write it down! If it was a super simple passage with a basic structure and clear main ideas, I'd sometimes just keep it in my head. But it was reassuring to write it down (especially recommended if you're someone who tends to forget or m…
Thanks for the shoutout @a1ex_682 !
I agree with @DINOSAUR about finding the right fit for tutoring! Definitely check out the tutoring page and read the bios to see whose background/story/tutoring-style you connect with. If you end up being intere…
It really depends on the school so you'll have to check what your university says. There's an ongoing reddit thread for updates:

Hey,
We're not admissions consultants so I would reach out to one of the 7Sage consultants directly since they'll be able to give you more reliable advice imo!
But that said, I definitely think a GPA addendum would be a good idea; you made a mista…
@7sage123 Thanks for the shoutout
@"caffeine powered human" @Chloeeee I'm happy to help if you're still interested in tutoring sessions! Feel free to message me anytime
Thanks for the shoutout @lexxx745!
@dodo_bird, I've created study plans with other students plenty of times so I'm happy to help! My rates are the same as on the Approved Tutor's Page that @MissLSAT linked to, so feel free to PM me if you're intere…

@"Habeas Porpoise" thanks for this great advice!
I'm actually doing my fourth take, too! I took a couple years off in between and I'm applying to law school this cycle. I'm retaking in a couple of weeks and going to take…
@lexxx745 said:
@"Habeas Porpoise" got an amazing score with only retakes leading up to the last exam, so im sure they could offer some great advice
Thanks for the shoutout! 😊
Yeah, I only had retakes left between my third and fourth takes…

Congrats, that's awesome!! 🎉

My tips for RC:
First, I ask myself “why” while I read each paragraph. Why is this author saying this? What’s the point?
Next, after reading each paragraph make a quick mental summary of what it is sayin…
@dncdrc_04 said:
@"Habeas Porpoise" Thanks for the comment! For drilling, do you recommend reusing PTs I have already taken or new ones?
For drilling, I'd always stick with retakes (full PTs, or individuals sections or questions, whatever my…
Hey! This test can definitely be mentally draining, but in your case I honestly think you just need some time to get used to this test.
You can, of course, practice by drilling 2-3 sections back to back during the week, but PT-ing a couple of tests…
I definitely believe retakes are valuable and can highlight true improvement. However, the variance you might see from even vaguely remembering two or three questions isn’t as insignificant as it may seem, even if you saw the test over ten months ag…
I always used to BR LG the same day as my test, and get started on RC (1-2 passages depending on how tired I am) before finishing up the next day. I rarely finished BR the same day I took a PT--and only later in my prep when I had very few questions…
I just want to echo what others have said here--retakes are incredibly valuable! In my case, my final jump from a 168 to a 174 was completely with retakes (some exams/sections I retook for the third or fourth time) because I'd burned through all my …

I suppose I'd use the generic proportionality symbol which can probably be best described as a ribbon-shape tilted onto its left side, or a greek letter alpha that has been squashed/stretched horizontally.

Just wanted to echo what @"Lana Kane" said! You don't need to time yourself, and if you want to benchmark, then I'd go with a count-up timer. If you find yourself distracted by time, feeling rushed in any capacity on drills, or worse, comparing your…
Hi there, welcome! Yes, you'll want to BR all the sections.
For RC, I recommend additionally noting the line-number where the evidence for the right AC is, even if the question itself doesn't reference lines or passage content word-for-word. This j…
I agree with @MissChanandler! You'll likely want to include a GPA Addendum though.
Also the admission team ( @"David.Busis" ) recently wrote about an extreme splitter situation: https://7sage.com/law-school-success-story-low-gpa/
