  • @Guillaume said: Hey guys, if there's still room, I'd like to be in! Long time lurker, first time poster. Welcome to the forum and study group, Guillaume. How are you LSAT studies going thus far?
  • @lsatplaylist said: Please add me as well. Looking forward to the discussions. Thanks for doing this. Of course! Welcome
  • 6 schools for sure. Might add more to negotiate scholarships with. I would blanket the T14, but I really want to stay on the east coast. I'll probably apply to any schools of interest I get a fee wavier too as well.
  • @"Alex Divine" said: Focus on the process: diagramming, making inferences, and figuring out how to prove the answer. Even if you remember the answers, there are still a ton of value in redoing games.

  • @akeegs92 said: Hey @"Alex Divine" I wanted to clarify something. When you said -3 per section, what did you mean by section? LR bundle Test 1-9, 10-19, 20-29? The individual, 5 questions for each type? I mean just like -3 per section on ful…
  • @nicholasgeelhood said: Thank you for the advice, I understand that. The hardest decision is whether I will wait until Feb. I will probably preform better by then, but it is nerve racking not knowing what your scores are before you apply and I…
  • @nicholasgeelhood said: What I meant by that is a score that reflects my abilities. If I do not get approved for accommodations for February and cannot appeal, then I will have to do my best in standard conditions. I am attempting for a 168-17…
  • My improvement was relatively sudden for about the first 10 points and then pretty gradual from there. Though I think a lot of that improvement was just learning the format of the test, diagramming, and conditional logic. After I made that initial j…
  • I think your decision will largely come down to where your PT scores are as December approaches. Are you consistently scoring where you ultimately hope to score on December? If so, then I would consider taking in December. If not, then I think it ma…
  • @"surfy surf" said: @"Alex Divine" how did you know what the prof wrote in your letter did they send you a copy? just curious They sent me a draft so I could verify if all of the information was correct. Things like club names and specific r…
  • @mzoodle said: So fool proof all games in the CC? This will obviously make it longer to finish the CC. I test in December. Hmm... If you test in December and are having trouble with games, you may want to begin to considering pushing back yo…
  • Is it just me, or is 7Sage getting more lit? (as if that was possible!)
  • You are correct that admissions usually requires 2 LORs that are academic or from employers. My first approach would be to track down old employers. I've read that some non-traditional students have had luck going this route. It might not be ideal, …
  • FWIW, I also had a very close professor asks me for those things. I think it may just be process. It ended up being a very enthusiastic letter!
  • @miriamsanchez307 said: @akistotle said: Hi @miriamsanchez307, Here is a list of tutors approved by 7Sage: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/4760/7sages-approved-tutors/p1 But if you are curre…

  • @mzoodle said: I am in the CC in LG, and I am having trouble with this section. Should I fool proof everything that I have trouble with and not continue with the CC until I fool proof everything? I feel lost as to what to do. LR and RC are my …
  • Really looking forward to Math! this Monday. For some reason numbers in LR questions are my Achilles' heel.
  • @DatguyM15 said: I've been self employed for 6 years. I've noticed some schools want LOR's from employers. Should I get them from my old employers. They would willingly write them but im 6 years or more out and seems kind of pointless? Als…
  • I find that many pre-law advisors and professors are sorely out of touch or ignorant when it comes to law school. I have received some of the worst advice from my undergrad professors, so my advice would be to always check any and all advice you're …
  • @TheMikey said: I say skip it this go around and go to one next year once you are ready to apply. There isn't much you can gain from these forums besides fee waivers, which is why I say go next year instead of now! I haven't been to one,…
  • @jermainepitts said: I do not understand how watching a video can help me set up the game and answer the questions. The video does all the thinking for me, I cannot just watch a video while I am taking the test. Is 7sage able to teach me how…
  • @BillLsat said: The silver bullet to all that is lsat. @zwerrell said: It is incredible. I just finished the LG curriculum today, and so all evening I was drilling LG sections. I was having a ton of trouble getting all the way throu…
  • @vanessaogbeide said: Hey guys, RC happens to be my worst section, by far. I am not seeing any improvement between practice tests in that area specifically. I am really stressed out about it. Any suggestions as to how to see improvement? …
  • @AllezAllez21 said: @FerdaFresh and @Sami I bubbled on page turns. AND DULL PENCILS ARE THE WAY TO GO!! But actually. I just used a dull pencil for the entire test. You get used to it and you bubble way faster. The real question is (esp…

  • Hey @spitzy11, As I'm sure you already know, always put school/GPA first. The LSAT will be here waiting for you when you're ready. So if you're midterms are taking up your time, energy, and focus right now then give that your attention. Second, so…

  • @"Cant Get Right" said: @"Alex Divine" said: From my knowledge, there really isn't a set way to do these. Been working on that, lol! I'm very much looking forward to that!
  • @amw26 said: Hi everyone, So like some have mentioned, I also underperformed on the Sept LSAT. Attempting to re-study again, I'm really trying not to be stubborn and trying to study this time around in a very strategic way, with reinforci…
  • Taking time off to get work experience for law school is almost always going to be a plus. Not only for admissions but also for yourself. Often when people take time off they gain different perspectives, find out if law is even for them, and if so, …
