This is single-handedly the coolest major I have ever heard of. I have a very undeveloped interest in archaeological studies (I've been to Machu Picchu and climbed over to Huayna Picchu) I absolutely loved every second of it…
What a great thread idea and an awesome way to use my study break lol!! I can't feel guilty about it if it's somewhat LSAT related right...?
My name is Katie, I'm 22 and graduated last year with a degree in Bioarchaeology/Paleoanthropology. I have …
Thank you everyone for the advice - it is really helpful to see how other people felt 2 weeks before the LSAT or after burnout in general. I'm happy it's common to take a break this close to the LSAT. My mom is a powerhouse machine and was shocked t…

burn-out is real.... its your brain's way of saying stoooooppppp. It really is akin to exercising everyday all day without letting your muscles heal and recover. Regarding the LSAT, once you hit that point where 0 of anyth…

STOP! lol but seriously... STOP
I account my under performance on my Sept 2017 test purely to burnout and not staying calm.
The honest to gods truth is these last 2 weeks are not going to give you huge amounts of i…
What has worked for me is simultaneously reading the information in the passage & relating it to something in my life so that I can make the passage more concrete/real (rather than abstract).
i.e. in PT 71 on the RC about mirrors, it was the mo…

Please let us know how it goes. You're on the right track.
I did my first timed PT yesterday before I had read any of these comments. I felt less nervous/frozen but still felt like my heart was going to explode from the p…
I was really close to giving up on the LSAT a few weeks ago; couldn't complete LG at all, was getting everything wrong, never had time on RC and generally saw 0 improvement.
Did my first PT yesterday and got a 158. Needs to be better but considerin…
Thanks everyone for all the lovely and helpful responses so far - I'm writing my next one tomorrow; with all the advice given and taken into consideration, hopefully it will go much better!
@"Idil.Beshir" mini workout definitely helped - did one ye…
Good idea on pushing the test date back to June. Let's start from the beginning though: how did you go through the LSAT course? What was your method?
Did you just briefly go through each lesson and then move on? Or, did you absorb each lesson, re-w…

I have the same exact problem. I graduated with distinction from my university with an 82.5% average over all 4 years - which should be considered a 3.7 cGPA, though reported by OLSAS as 3.55. I'm going to be calling the Canadi…
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! Pleasantly surprised when I saw my email this morning !!! May seem small to 7Sage but it really means a lot; I was getting tight on cash for gifts and now I can afford my mom's present on Amazon!!! You guys are the best Happy h…

Hey, I’ve heard of others experiencing similar problems and contacting OLSAS usually resulted in a fix. Did you try and manually calculate your OLSAS GPA (calculating it per course and divide it by the number of courses you …

I was so discouraged by the aggression and competitiveness on that forum, and haven't visited it since. IDK, that's just my two cents on that site.

I don't take anything on TLS seriously, mostly because I had a bitter experience with it. Before I fully committed to applying to law , I posted a question on there hoping someone could help me. I said I was interested in humanitarian work and wonde…

J.Y. treated PT24 S4 Game 1 (https://7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-24-section-4-game-1/) as an In/Out game. The appetizer is …

The problem is that you treated it as an in/out, but then incorrectly captured the rule.
If you're going to treat it as an in/out, then what that rule says is
Not both (F,N) in and Not Both (F,N) out. You can then express…
@BinghamtonDave said:
Is the rule you referenced on a game about appetizers and main dish recipes? Is the N "Nutmeg?" I think this might hold one of the keys to understanding the subtlety here.
Yes! P24 Section 4 Game 1.
I would think that they are pretty important for fringe students (i.e. students who just make the cut-off for GPA and LSAT scores). Especially if you have things in your resume/CV that may sound "meh," the PS gives you the opportunity to flesh out y…
I would take everyone's suggestions here and perhaps try and write a first draft that ties in your experiences to a larger narrative. I know plenty of people who have written about something that was really negative in their life and could have seri…
A lot of my friends have just changed their social media names to really absurd things so they don't show up when you look them up (i.e. everything they've ever been tagged in will now have a different name tagged). I'm not sure if that really tackl…
At the end of the day it's your decision, but opting out probably hurts you more than anything. It may not be in your top 3 dream schools but coming 5th or 6th is still pretty close. I would try and keep all of your options open
Not saying this wo…

In the question you mentioned my approach was:
- Got it down to 6/7
- Decided I was going to brute force. I decided to put R into 7 to begin with because it was more restrictive. When you put R into 7, you …
@akistotle said:
Since this is a MBT question, I would only come up with one scenario.
The question gives us [F_ _O] block.
_ F_ _ O_ _ L/H
R has to be in 6/7 because of rule (2).
Then, follow the original rules from…
I agree with others that you sound like you know your stuff and you need to take a break. However, at the end of the day, the amount of time you need for a break is up to you. Feel it out. If you take 2 days off and feel refreshed, maybe try and get…

@"Habeas Porpoise" Great point. I guess I feel like I'm on a time limit (I'm writing in February) and if I space one lesson's problem set over two or three days, I end up falling behind in other material I set out to do (which results in me getting …
