  • @"Kenny L." said: Hello, the ultimate course offers LR drill packs at the end of the syllabus. Is there an overlap of questions between these drill packs and the problem sets? Or are they offered as a supplement to the problem sets for additio…
  • @"Martin.jul" said: Hi guys, What is your opinion on the optimal daily study schedule from now until the September LSAT? How many LR, RC, and LG sections per day and how many prep tests per week? Of course, review of the sections should b…
  • @MichaelTheArchAngel said: @"Alex Divine" said I am in Canada, and there are 6 schools in my Province of Ontario: U of T(165), York(167), Queens (163), Ottawa (163), Western (155), Windsor.(155) if i recall are the medians. …
  • @rebeccasunshine said: @"Alex Divine" Thanks! Honestly, I think that I shouldn't have a problem explaining how my situation makes me diverse. Just wanted to make sure it would be an appropriate topic That's great to hear and really one of t…
  • @rebeccasunshine said: Hey everyone, I was looking for some advice regarding writing a diversity statement. I wasn't originally going to write one, since I am a white, upper-middle class female who hasn't experienced too much hardship in my li…
  • @Katharine said: I've been reading through the 7sage admission course, and have reached the strange conclusion that I'm 1. more diverse/weird than I thought, and 2. I no longer know which diverse/weird part about myself should be relegated to …
  • @dan_reynolds said: Ajcrowel. That kind of generalization is BS. There are tons of people who score 170 on the exam and have shit GPAs, and the opposite is true. I have a 3.8 GPA from UT, and I scored below their median on the LSAT. One do…
  • @fmihalic2 said: Yeah, I agree. It can be kind of messed up to 'learn as you go' in crim law given what's on the line. I'm also not sure about exactly which type of crim law I want to be. I mean, a good LSAT score could easily have me at a V10…
  • @MichaelTheArchAngel said: @"Alex Divine" said: @AngusMcGillis said: Following. I'm writing in December as well I think you plan looks pretty good for the most part. A couple of tweaks I would sugges…
  • @Freddy_D said: I agree with Daniel, I'm not sure that this topic would necessarily warrant a diversity statement. Debate is obviously something that means a lot to you so I would advise that you craft your personal statement about it instead …

  • @AngusMcGillis said: Following. I'm writing in December as well I think you plan looks pretty good for the most part. A couple of tweaks I would suggest is just making sure you set a goal score and stick with it. Don't become beholden to dat…
  • @fmihalic2 said: I agree with everything that you've all said. There are some serious risks involved, it's undeniable. Another fear I have is that working for someone else I won't get the opportunity to get the kinds of cases that will give me…
  • @fmihalic2 said: Hey friends, I was wondering if anyone either has experience or knows anyone who has founded their own firm right out of law school? I would go to TLS but I'm not really interested in hearing the backlash of all the bigla…
  • @Jaymee_cee said: Hi 7sagers, I feel like I'm in a bit of pickle. My first choice for law school is the University of San Diego and they do not require any LOR's. I've been out of under grad for 5 years now so I'm wondering if I should ev…
  • @"vanessa fisher" said: Thanks for the comments everyone, this is really helpful! @LSATcantwin, @Sami @"Alex Divine" @tanes256 you've pointed out some good things, and also regarding some of your questions: Basically, I'm not at my …
  • @nyc2dc2ca said: Does it matter if the bag has the ziploc or other company logo on it? Exam on Sunday so urgent! No, just has to be ziplock style. Doesn't need the logo.
  • @"vanessa fisher" said: Hey everyone, I'm wondering what people's opinions are for the LSAT Trainer. I hear a lot of people talk here about it being a complimentary book for 7Sage material, but I'm wondering how necessary it is. I've been u…
  • @Anthony_Mahmud said: @"Alex Divine" All of that sounds very good, thank you so much! I found a copy of LSAT Trainer for $7 on eBay, so I'll be working on that shortly! Is there a reason why it's better to drill 1-35 even though the …
  • @Anthony_Mahmud said: @"Alex Divine" Thanks for the feedback! I do indeed mean that I've completed all 80 released LGs over the past three and a half weeks. At this point I'm only really missing questions if I misread or improperly diagra…
  • @CinnamonTea said: Hi all, Another admissions question! I'm taking a campus tour in 2 weeks. Should I prepare as if there were an interview? It said when I scheduled the appointment that it would be a tour guided by student ambassadors an…
  • @Freddy_D said: I usually assemble a drill packet each day that usually consists fool proofing 4 games, about 30-50 LR questions, and 2 RC passages. Doing this has helped to keep me "fresh" like my dude Alex said in the above comment That's …
  • @USER123456 said: This is a daunting section, for me, because I have little foundation. I didn't even know the definition of a verb when I started the series. I'm doing poorly on the quizzes for Grammar, and I think I'd really need to start fr…

  • @Anthony_Mahmud said: Hi guys! I wanted to field opinions on my course of action for preparing for the September LSAT. I've been studying for a little bit under a month, and as of today have finished all 80 LG sections without time constr…
  • @jackigoe said: Hello everyone, I am in the process of fool proofing PT's 1-35. I have found that I am able to do about 4 games per day and have gotten through PT 10 so far. My method is pretty similar to the @Pacifico method. My first at…
  • @sequitur said: I think I've trained my intuition enough that a prephrase just pops up after reading an SA stimulus. But I am still interested in understanding the logical mechanism of what makes some parts irrelevant. The idea of elimin…
  • @kH573201 said: Thank you guys so much! I'm going to start diagramming more often to start getting the hang of it. Hopefully it starts making some sense! It can take a while before it comes naturally, but I promise it is well worth it. Befor…

  • @TheoryandPractice said: I was just drilling SA questions and noticed that a lot of difficult SA Qs have red herrings (distractions) in the stimulus. How do you identify them quickly? Are there (or do you have) any effective strategies? Li…
  • @charles27 said: Hi guys! I know this has probably been asked many times before but I just want to know how you exactly go about BR for LR? I just took a practice section after not taking one in a long time and I got 6 wrong and skipped 2 whic…
  • @tanes256 said: @kH573201 Hey! The goal isn't to diagram each question. You won't even be able to diagram everything so don't worry. This stuff is supposed to be intuitive, believe that or not. Diagramming comes in handy when you're stuck and …
