@nathanieljschwartz said: I have watched it, and it definitly shed some light. Thanks!! My only advice to add: Be flexible with your pre-phrasing and don't rely on them too heavily. I think sometimes we can get trapped by them and close our …

@tanes256 said: @nathanieljschwartz have you checked out the webinar on anticipating answer choices? Good call! Here it is and it is certainly worth the watch: https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/jimmy-anticipating/

@theLSATgrind2017 said: @USER123456 said: What if Kaplan is the key to a 180, and the rumours that it sucks were started by top scorers... Plot twist. I was in a Kaplan class in late November 2016. I had already read …

@uhinberg said: This really shows the strides that LSAT prep has made in the past couple of decades. A while back, the only prep option was Kaplan. Now, it's routinely dismissed as being the worst of the lot. But better LSAT prep is a double-e…

@mzoodle said: btw, where can i access/see all 7sage webinars, or pre recorded stuff? https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/

@mzoodle said: Good for you, Alex! I am happy to see such a kind and supportive atmosphere here at 7sage. Yes, I was very fortunate to find 7Sage along with the most supportive group of preppers in the world!

@BinghamtonDave said: I have spent a considerable amount of time on these questions. My first piece of advice would be to develop mastery-level understanding of games prior to undertaking a serious study of rule substitution questions, if you…

@charlesteity said: What's the best advice you received when you got bummed out while studying? What gave you the motivation and confidence to continue pushing? Thanks! Reading a book called The One Thing by Gary Keller. That book helped a l…

@"vanessa fisher" said: @"Alex Divine" Couldn't agree more. Always shoot for your dreams, but also have a back up plan Imagine if no one ever went for those unicorn dreams!? Someone's got to be getting them, might as well try if you wan…

@stepharizona said: I'll add this for what it's worth. The rule about chronos WAS on the website prior to June (I believe the change was made after March according to WBTM so this isn't new BUT and this is very important it was NOT on the rule…

@mzoodle said: Alex Divine, how has she helped you improve? She took me under her wing when I first began prepping last fall. Supported me and helped me to understand a lot of the technical approaches to LR especially. Sami not only helped m…

Recently, with little prep I've been able to get my RC down to -2 or so. I use what is called the Memory Method (7Sage, reading for structure) but I also utilize this theory called LOCI. I swear I can kill most passages with this theory. It takes pr…

Also, always feel free to PM/comment if you have any questions at all -- me or one of the other helpful sagers will help. I remember starting off and not being able to intuitively know what to do next or how to feel about my progress. Again, I think…

@Sprinkles said: They offer the digital LSAT in Albany but not Buffalo. Albany Oh yeahhhh! The old stomping grounds. Still, it's on my bday and I don't want to risk burning a test that I haven' taken for a format I'm probably not going t…

@Sprinkles said: @"Daniel.Sieradzki" said: It will be interesting to see what they changed based on the recommendations they received. This reward is kind of lame for people who already have a fee waiver. A $100 gift card …

@Sami said: Yup. You skip that question on the exam and you do other ones. When you are done with all the questions on that section you can come back to this question to try again. I disagree that it isn't worth a second quick once over, at …

@mzoodle said: Thanks guys! good luck on your journey!

@akistotle said: I haven't really heard great things about Kaplan. But I'm sure it works for some people. Hiring a tutor can be very expensive. @Sprinkles said: I would say for the common LSAT student, 7sage is a great asset to …

@Sami said: You skip it and come back to it on the second round. Basically. I mean, try again. There's nothing else you can do except maybe give it a quick once over again, make sure you didn't misread something or mis understand the argumen…

@stepharizona said: I would say that why I think a 5/6 with real sections to create a whole test is valuable. You never know what is coming at you on test day and ideally you'll perform consistently no matter what. For me it's been valuab…

@nathanieljschwartz said: So i have been at the LSAT for awhile now. I see the benefits of prephrasing im just really having a hard time employing it on a large part of the test. Does anyone have any drills or methods they used to help the…

@"vanessa fisher" said: Agree with previous comments. Also just to add that I think that while it is true that all of law is competitive, I don't think we can actually say other law jobs are equally difficult to get as a professorship. Get…

@dantlee14 said: @"Jonathan Wang" said: How can you tell what's important and what's not in an argument without reading and understanding the whole thing first? map h4x that's how LMAO!!! Still, good point.

Nope. I have only heard negative things above Kaplan in the last several years. You can just look up reviews. I don't personally know anyone who took the course, but when I was researching courses (before I found 7Sage) I think Kaplan and Princeton …

@Mellow_Z said: Last test was an exact copy of a previous exam. If you are trying to use the test as a means to get exposure to more/new materials, I would deem it a waste of time. If you haven't sat through a proctored LSAT before, I hi…
