Yeah, 7Sage doesn't do "tricks" in any part of the curriculum. Tricks are just code for trying to answer questions without having to learn the foundational skills that the question is built on. When you learn LG with tricks, it becomes really easy t…
Your average score is definitely the more realistic evaluation of where you fall. I typically subtract my highest and lowest scores when determining my average. Outliers can be really bad if you put too much value on them. The danger here is that ma…
Yeah, definitely agree with @"Alex Divine" for extra time. Your first day there, go ahead and travel to your test center so you know exactly where you're going and how you're getting there. I'd also think about breakfast and whatever else you do for…
What most of us do is sacrifice PTs 1-36 to use for drills and save everything above that for full length PTs. It's completely arbitrary, but I think that would be the most commonly used line to distinguish a test as old.
Typically, if you fall beneath their 50th percentile on GPA, you do need to give them an LSAT to make up for it. Ideally, you average out above the median. So if your gpa is at the 40th percentile, aim for at least the 60th percentile LSAT.
Of cour…

I'm afraid that if I wait too late, spots for my favorite schools will be full.
You're kind of making the assumption that all things are equal. If you're not ready for the LSAT in September, all things will not be equal. Your LSA…
@Mitzyyyy , I'm not sure how new it is, but lots of benefits.
I work out the problems as I watch the recordings and often catch myself in errors as I'm making them on the recording. That's a really powerful moment. It's like I'm syncing with myse…
I upload to dropbox, but yeah, my upload speed is about like yours @Micaela_OVO . I just start it before going to bed and hope it'll finish by morning.

Do you know if the Wopex will fit in the Palomino Blackwing Sharpener?
They do not. Well, they do, but it doesn't work. The material the wopex is made from is too dense for the blackwing blades to handle.

We have to capitalize on this... 180 Water could be a gold mine
Totally. And we could add like some vitamins and minerals. LSAT students love vitamins and minerals.
Yeah, these are tough.
So first things first. Give them about 30 seconds on your first look, and if you can't answer it by just thinking on it, skip it immediately.
When you do come back to them, you are going to have to work through them and jus…

Would that be easier to notice with Manhattan's approach of labeling say the speaker's opinion or opposing views throughout the passage?
I definitely think an effective annotation strategy is important, and keeping up with differen…
Anxiety is tough. Do you exercise? That's always beneficial. Just go for a run when you first get up or something. I also try to control my environment and keep everything clean and where it's supposed to be. Don't put things off. If you cook …
Absolutely @"Tina Cho" . The most important thing about encountering a new game type is just to not panic. It's easy to freeze under pressure when you encounter something completely unfamiliar, and the ability to keep it together largely comes down …
Thanks for jumping in and clarifying @twssmith .
There were actually a lot of issues with designating study groups for specific test dates, so we've just got an ongoing rotation now. Everyone is free to join regardless of their stage in prep or wh…
Yeah, I bubble everything from the spread before I turn the page. It's definitely faster, but potentially more prone to error, so it really just depends. I've never made a bubbling error, so for me the additional speed has outweighed what seems to…
You're definitely right that it's possible. Of course, there is a necessary threshold of raw intellect, but I think it's actually way lower than most people realize.
As far as how long people study, I'm not sure there is going to be any meaningful…
Acceptable situation questions. I typically glance through all of them, it only takes an extra second or two.
The way I work these is to run each rule immediately after translating it or plugging it onto my board. This way, I think about each rul…
Yeah, inconsistency right out of the curriculum is really common. You haven't mastered the material yet, so you're going to win some/lose some. It just means you have more work to do, which you knew anyway. Just make sure you're not burning throu…
Yeah, after reading, I totally reconfirm to postpone. Unless you're some kind of genius or something, you're just not going to be anywhere near ready to sit for September after only a couple of months of studying. So unless you're willing to settl…
