Hey Jeff, No I didn't record it actually. We discussed a few questions towards the end and I didn't want to take any risk with LSAC. Alot of people attended so not sure perhaps there was an issue that I didn't know about? I enjoyed this so will c…

Hi Everyone! The link is posted above, looking forward to seeing you tonight!

@"shan.55" said: Really looking forward to this, thanks a lot! What would you classify as the three other pillars of modern LR? The pillar classification is actually Powerscore's idea, and one I totally agree with. They classify the 4 pilla…

@"Princess Carolyn", Thank you very much! I am too

Thanks Jeff! Looking forward to meeting you!

Personally, I went through the CC too quickly initally so I think you will get more out of it than you did initally. You can take another diagnostic test if you want to get an idea of where you are but I would advise starting through the CC from th…

I would also agree that The Loophole is value for teaching this skill, but I do believe it can be developed without it. Here is what I would reccomend. Take a LR section that you have already completed ( if you are in the testing phase) if,not gra…

@studentservice should be able to help you.

A group of us are reviewing PT 89 the first section this evening. Maybe it will help enlighten you as to where you are going wrong? If you want to join message and I will give you the zoom link. It starts at 8 pm Pacific tonight.

Hi, I have been studying for a long time now and finally starting to score in my goal range. I do not think this would have taken me nearly so long if I had gotten a tutor much earlier on. When I started my LSAT journey I had never had to study m…

I improved significantly by treating Necessary Assumption questions as a must be true question in the context that for the author to be able to make their conclusion which of these answer choices must be true? Thinking about it like that helped me …

I have been practicing Reading Comp on my laptop for months. Peronally, I am thrilled that I will be taking RC on my laptop rather than on the tablets LSAC has used. I previously took the LSAT and to my dismay the highlighter function didn't work-…

I actually picked E right away because it felt like it did nothing to provide an explaination. The first part of answer choice E, which tells us that bettles are among the oldest insects, just felt like a fact. The second part which says that bett…

A good tip I heard about these that helped me is to think of this question type like a soft must be true question. Based on what you read in the passage which of the answer choices is most likely to be true? The answer choice you choose should be p…

While I have not used the tutoring services of Heart shaped Box, I was truly shocked to see this post. I specifically remember seeing many many posts written by Heartshaped Box throughout 7Sage forums and on specifc questions and he has always seem…

I thought rather than just a vote I would also give some perspective because I think we are in a similar situation. I have been planning on taking the June LSAT. I wanted to take June because it is an early test, and since I already delayed I am t…

Group studying is a great idea!

Take some time and listen to the past webinars from past sages who have done very well on this test. All of them that I have heard say that if you are trying to do more than a couple of PT's a week you will burn out, not complete a blind review tha…

I don't think your issue is actually speed, but rather the fact that what you are reading isn't tangible to you and you are reading and re reading the same lines but likely not getting more out of what you are reading even on subsequent reads. Long…

Sounds great!

The first and most major way that they are different is that sufficent assuptions make the argument valid or very close to valid BUT a necessary assuption does not. An assumption is something unstated that our speaker left out during the argument. …

@"Cant Get Right" , so glad to hear you finally have internet back! Isolation with Covid-19 and no internet is enough to be a recipe for disaster. Thank you for your detailed response and explaination. I had never heard of planning on "skipping" …

@noonawoon, I think it is concievably possible that most this testing cycle ends up Flex. I live in CA and just the other day Facebook announced that their employees will be working from home until at least September. Some schools have also announ…
-
@noonawoon that is exactly my thought. The whiteboard with the GRE probably just works just fine but with the LSAT there are many test takers who burn through pages of paper not just for games but also for the other sections since the test is digit…

I hope LSAC will make an official announcement regarding this. I know that GRE uses ProctorU as well and have been told that GRE test takers can just use a little white board. I hope that LSAC will realize that doing 4 games on a little white boar…

Wow, I actually never knew that people would view the GRE that highly lol. I thought the typical GRE taker was someone who was taking that test for business school, does very well and then makes a last minute piviot to wanting to be a lawyer and is…

@Markmark, When I make a prephrase I am really trying to do so by identifying the gap in the argument. If it is a strenghten argument for example I want to block where the argument is weak, which strengthens the argument. To do that, I read an arg…

@jmarmaduke96, I totally agree that different approaches will work better for different people. And just as you are saying if you are married to your prediction you are going to have a problem. For me, making a prediction means that I am identifyi…

I understand the breakdown you posted above and believe there are some people who have scored very well on this test using the idea you are presenting above. For me, this did not work. While I have, for the most part, tried to predict answer choi…

@Mike_Ross , I really appreciate your help and detailed feedback! I do think taking more control will continue to help me with confidence and establishing that I will be skipping a certian amount of questions up front can really help me do that. I…
