That seems like it is ok, 1-2 timed sections a day with a BR. Don't do more than 2 tests a week and take a full one once every two weeks. I think the issue may lie with your BR. How is your BR? Do you understand why you do not understand why the…

Here is this old TLS Splitter spreadsheet: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=162680 You've probably gone as far as you can go. With a higher score, you may have a shot at NYU or Penn. But you probably should be targeting spli…

You probably need to lower expectations a ton. Your mindset seems to be going into this test, I have to ace "THIS" one test, when that is not necessary. Schools want the highest LSAT score. They don't care that you have multiple retakes. So trea…

Yeah doing more work up front, understanding the structure of the passage, but more specifically, the premises that support the overall main point. Also understanding how the processes work in the law and science passages, how the examples or speci…

@BinghamtonDave said: I got a 168, I'm very happy, but am planning a retake for a few extra points/possible scholarship money. It has been a long and exciting journey and I credit 7Sage with a huge part of my success. Philippians 4:13 …

Sadly I won't be able to make it to this one. I have to work Saturday morning. Sad! But, have no fear, the virus game was so ez pz!

Ok, some advice from an LSAT novice. 1.) Eat some ice-cream and watch a Wesley Snipes movie. 2.) Look at the 7Sage analytics and listen to the dulcet sounds of JY showing you how to solve the difficult problems while taking notes. 3.) Write-up th…

Yes, when trying to use new strategies you will often fall into a rut until you become more proficient and comfortable with the new strategy. Don't neglect the details in the passage though, just make a key summary about what the particular detail …

Have you subscribed to Calm? I use the muscle meditation 25 minute program that gets you focusing on your breath, letting go of the day, and tensing and relaxing your muscles. I found that it mostly works like a charm. Some nights it does not. B…

@Gladiator_2017 said: Lol love the gif. @"Adam Hawks" are you shooting to take in Sept. Or Nov.? Well I moved to a different city in China, and the Asia take will be on October 14. So, I'm a 'tweener. Then probably again in February depend…

I think you need to go travel before you enter law school before you make a $300k mistake. If you're not feeling like practicing in other states or California, then maybe you should evaluate all your alternatives. I'm sure if you go to an elite sc…

What? That's absurd. It's none of their business if you got help. What if I have my mother look over my essay? Or your friend? Does that count as assistance? This is the single most important piece in your application beyond your LSAT & GPA…

Yes, it cannot hurt your eligibility. However, the key determining factor for getting into the school of your dreams will be a high LSAT score.

Send me a PM, I'm also in Asia.

You should not skip a PR question, they are long, but they tend to be straightforward and simple as @keets993 said. She did a great job describing how to do PR. PR questions are usually logically sound so you don't have to look for a flaw like in …

Yo! Your issue is that you are going too fast. Stop timing yourself now! First things first, identify the argument's conclusion and then identify the argument's premises. Even if you only do 15 problems in 35 minutes, but get all 15 correct, it wi…

A top 10 school, yes. Yale, maybe.

That's great news and a great problem to have. Most students here advocate a skipping strategy that helps accelerate through difficult problems to not get sucked into the quicksand problems. As for RC, try doing more work up front on the passage. …

Try to do more work up front making worlds and such. However, it's better to be slow and accurate than be fast and missing a lot. You can bubble in the last couple of questions if you don't have time.

I'm out for this one because of the summer school schedule. I'll be back for 67

I'll be frank, it won't happen. 150 to 170 is about 40-50 more right questions. You have a lot of work to do. But that doesn't mean you need to do 40 hours a week of studying. Do 10-20, take the time to review and completely understand the eleme…

The most important indicator will be your LSAT score. If it is above their 75th percentile, then they'll take a longer look at you. You'll need to write an addendum. But if your LSAT is not above their 75th, they'll probably put you on the wait l…

They are all solid materials to begin your journey. As for the students in here that transition from the Bible to 7sage, the reality is that your philosophy towards the test should be like Bruce Lee's philosophy of Jeet Kune Do. "Absorb what is us…

I often find my problems with 5-star passages is retaining the amount of detail under timed constraints, putting those pieces of the puzzle together rapidly to attack the questions, and there are often 7 to 8 questions. For 5-star passages the diff…

Sorry that I was not available today as I had a late night and just slept through my alarm. I will see you guys soon. I promise!

Look at the ABA 509 for job placement information.

For those that are talking about Big Law, I hope you understand what Big Law means. Bye bye personal life and I don't know that I could justify $200k for it. Who knows, maybe I'll sing a different tune depending on how much I owe in loans. Is it w…
