I've been saying this for years and nobody ever believes me until they experience it for themselves. I guess it's a real hand-on-the-burner kind of thing. When people say law school teaches you how to think, well, that's the LSAT too. I don't think …

"Do not seek help from anyone" lmao. Because that's definitely how skills development works. 7sage couldn't have asked for a better marketing post. All that's going to happen here is a line of praise all the way down from actual users of the produc…

Yeah, don't take it personally. People do this to paid tutors, too. It's why every experienced tutor has a no-show policy and at least one absurd story to tell.

MLSAT isn't saying that a poll can never be unrepresentative. They're saying that you can't make that your flaw accusation without better proof. Here, you're essentially guessing at whether a sample of 125 CEOs of large corporations is representativ…

It's like I said in the post - nobody will blame you for being bad at calculus, but if I say someone is "illogical" I might as well be calling them a moron as far as most people are concerned. I'm not implying LG is easy; in fact, I happen to agree…

I wrote a piece about this a long time ago: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/2763/why-formal-logic tl;dr - it's a means to an end, and a very important one at that. your proficiency is likely what's holding you back.

Starting now!

Don't they make caffeinated mints? I had a student of mine once eat a bunch of those on test day and proceed to be jittery the whole way through because that was the first time she'd ever had them (moral: don't do something for the first time on tes…

You probably need to sit down with a tutor, pinpoint your issues, and determine from there whether a curriculum will help you. My bet purely from your scoring range is no, but it's impossible to say without seeing you work problems. And work on your…

A statement along the lines of "the results are adjusted for overreporting" or something like that would certainly help fix the issue, so it's not irreparably harmed - but it would take a further statement like that to repair the damage. "Merely" w…

Usually it's for bigger scholarships, splitters who need to be over the 75th, or just knowing they underperformed their practice.

So, flaw analysis: watching yourself exercise on tape is correlated with reporting more exercise, and that somehow means that it's motivating you to exercise more. Classic phenomenon-hypothesis, aka correlation-causation. Conspicuously, there's no l…

It's a weaken (except) question. When you manipulate arguments, you're not supposed to question the answer choice's truth, you're supposed to plug it into the argument to ascertain its impact ("which of the following, if true..."). Plugged in, the …

"J and M -> H" is not correct. You are correct in thinking that it's "J or M -> H"

Sorry in advance for the essay; I started typing and kinda just kept going. This is what you get when the Sharks are losing miserably and thus failing to capture my attention, leaving me with nothing better to do on a Friday night. == If there is …

Because your intuition and your mechanics are not wholly distinct entities, the real answer is probably more along the lines of "you have to do both", not picking one or the other. Of course your intuition kicks in faster (that's sort of the point …

Let's just hope you didn't end up sharing Qui-Gon's fate...

Yes, you can apply this cycle if you take in January. But that doesn't mean you should. You are spending a quarter million dollars (most of which probably will have to be borrowed) and 3 years of your life on whatever law school you end up going to…

Ugh, what a motley crew

you can't miss fast enough to win I laughed. Great way to put it.

In my opinion, watch them all until you're good enough that you no longer have to. You are either confirming your thought process or learning something new, and sometimes both in the same question. Both aspects are critically important especially wh…
-
Yeah, don't take this shortcut. Take the time to learn why the reasoning works the way it does and reason your way through it. Why settle for a cheap trick when you can do it properly and guarantee yourself the point?

Liquor store.

From a tutoring perspective, I've thought poorly of the LG Bible for years, and stopped recommending it as a resource long ago. It obviously works for some people, but I can't help but think that those same people would have made even more improveme…
-
Reiterating OP's ask - can someone please give a citation of a question where it does matter (and preferably several, if you have them)? I've seen several people at various points say that they've seen questions with this trap but I can't remember a…

It's a single conditional. The confusion likely stems from the fact that this kind of rule takes on biconditional properties in 2-group grouping games specifically, because "X is not in group 1" is exactly equivalent to "X is in group 2" when there …
-
I'd take it again. 168 isn't as "safe" for money as we'd probably like (though it'll almost certainly get you some money somewhere), it'll be an uphill battle for HYS or CCN which is a shame given a 4.0 gpa, your practice testing supports the idea t…

It really boils down to a cold, hard admissions chance calculation. Will a 151 get you into the t14/t30 schools you want to go to? Honestly, unless you are URM and/or have extremely compelling factors elsewhere in your app, the answer is going to be…

To me, numerical distributions are like any other inference. With any rule or rule interaction, we look at them because we want to understand whether it's a significantly limiting factor on our game or not. If so, you can explore either splitting on…
