I think @"Jonathan Wang" pretty much nailed it, so I just want to reinforce that. I don’t know you and I can’t say you can do this. Maybe you can’t. Either way, it’s okay to feel that. Take time to process it. I had a similar experience where I drop…

Thanks for everyone who was able to make it!

Link added in the main post. See y'all soon!

@cpeaks13 said: how do you join the office hours on tuesday? will there be a zoom link? Thx! Yes, there will be a zoom link! I will post it just before start time.

Not sure about the specifics for Chicago and Cornell, but I think one page is typically enough unless you have personal, compelling reasons that really require two pages to express well. For schools where you're really just reporting on your researc…

Ok, scheduled it! To prevent hijacking this thread, please see https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/32566/sage-office-hours-advanced-time-management-strategy-tues-june-28-8pm-eastern

@CSieck3507 said: @cpeaks13 said: @"Cant Get Right" how were you able to master your time management and efficiency? Great question I was planning on doing some Sage Office Hours later this week, would y’all be interested…

A lot of it is going to be time management. Your BR score is your potential. How close you come to your potential is a matter of efficiency. Efficiency is complicated, but it’s basically just good time management. If you were testing with effectivel…

I’m still mostly just guessing, but I figure your passage read is likely pretty good. Hard to do as well as -5 with bad understanding of the passages. But for starters, stick to a slow and steady pacing to read the passage. You can’t expect to score…

In that range, it’s hard to offer meaningful advice without more. Those final points can come from a lot of different, so more in-depth analysis would be necessary. All things considered though, I think you should definitely be able to push into you…

Having a bit of general background really helps in science. You probably don’t want to encounter concepts like dark matter or CRISPR or spectrography or something for the very first time on test day. So I actually think good edutainment channels on …

I read the question stem first, but I really don't think it's something to advocate very strongly for either way. Some people have different preferences, and I honestly don't buy arguments on either side that claim one is actually any better than th…

The difference is often fairly arbitrary. You can turn any Weaken question into a Flaw question just by tagging “fails to consider the possibility that . . .” in front of each answer. So the distinction actually isn’t that important as long as you u…

Because this is such a new rule and there’s really nothing I can think of to serve as a precedent, I’m not sure what the move is. But I can’t think even the worst case scenario is that bad. At worst, it’s an innocuous oversight from which you derive…

What is your time management strategy?
-
170+ is possible. About 2% of people do it every single test, and what do they have that you don't have or can't get? Nothing. So yes, you can absolutely score 170+. November too is possible. A test is being administered and you may sign up for it, …

I’d recommend stepping away from Logic for starters. You need a grammar course. The LSAT is actually more about language than logic, and your score range indicates a lot of work is needed on that before studying logic is going to be productive. Brea…

Link is posted. See folks in a bit!

Thanks everyone! Hope to see y'all this evening!

Thanks everyone! Tough question @"Lime Green Dot" . I’ll definitely plan on elaborating more in person, but for now I’ll say that that’s a question I struggle with. Whatever the answer is, and I’m still working it out, it’s complicated. The law isn…

@canihazJD said: Congrats Josh! Will be in my SA so likely won't make it, but where are you heading off to? Long story! Short version is: I'll be back and forth between Chicago and Mississippi for the next year setting up an education non-pr…

@"sam.bellersen" said: Does the Lsat test mere ability or time (and money) spend on gaining ability? It seems to me that it is more of the ladder. Some get high diagnostics and score well. But a lot of people do not and have to (and do) spend …

@NVR2LATEforLAWSCHOOL said: Criminal defense is my passion. I think the media and public sometimes forget that we are innocent until proven guilty. Unfortunately, this is incorrect. We are innocent until proven guilty OR until we plea guilt…

I agree with a lot of what's been said already, and I don't think much will change. Law schools won't be required to have standardized testing, but they will still have to find a way to process applicants. The LSAT has empirically proven to be an ef…

@"Paradar.32" said: How can 7 sage possibly justify only a 12 point increase (136 to a 149) in 7 months of full time practice? A 136 is the 7th percentile. A 149 is the 40th percentile. So that "12 point increase" [sic] is an increase of …

One thing that’s going to be really important is to change your understanding of how to manage time. You’re framing it in terms of speed, but it really isn’t about how fast you do the work. Instead, it’s about how effective the work you do is. For e…

They're estimates. Sometimes to go -0 you've got to be better than average!

I think it’s okay to do more than that. I don’t think it will do any harm. The real question is if it’ll do any good. If after working 10 questions you still feel like doing more will be helpful to reinforce the lesson, go for it. But more often tha…

Really great thread. This is exactly the kind of thing we’re looking for in diagnosing our errors. Things like question type can be helpful early in prep, but in more advanced stages, it’s this type of underlying reasoning that we are trying to get …
