@gurpreetk35 glad to hear it. Thanks!

@kanel1995 @Steven_B-1 awesome. Thank y’all!

I BR every section I do. While it can sometimes be a pain (particularly when you don’t do too hot on that extra section), BR is, in my opinion, where you make most of your gains. Unless it’s an LG section that you go -0 on and breeze through all the…

I know some former admissions officers answer questions on this forum, so definitely get their input if you can. From my understanding, though, law schools take undergrad rigor into account to an extent. What I mean is if they’re deciding between y…

Congrats!

I'll say a couple of things. First, and most importantly, if you've only studied LR and haven't yet reached LG or RC, the odds of your score improving much is unlikely. Honestly, your score will probably be pretty random, just like your diagnostic …

Yes, miscellaneous games still pop up on modern tests. From what I understand they aren't super common, meaning it's probably more likely than not that you won't have one on your test, but they are by no means uncommon. They pop up frequently enough…

Yes, current LSATs and, as far as I know, all tests for the foreseeable future will have experimental sections. I'm not sure what the deal with the June 2019 test was, so I can't give you an answer there. The June 2022 LSAT did have an experimental …

If I was in your shoes, I'd determine my steps forward based on a few factors: First, I'd consider if there was only two or three specific question types I'm missing. If there's a two or three that stick out and you're nearly perfect on the others, …

Maybe try out basic 7Sage monthly then if you feel you need more upgrade to unlimited. If you've got a good amount of time to study, you could probably try to self-study with the basic 7Sage package, become as proficient as possible in each area whi…

Not too shabby haha. You earned it! Congrats!

Amazing! Congrats!

Awesome score and improvement! Congrats!

Which question?
-
Typically, I try to tackle all LR problems intuitively before trying more formulaic approaches. So for NA questions, I first ask myself: "Which one of these answer choices absolutely HAS to be true for this person's argument to remain standing?" Oft…

If you click on the "LSAT Questions" tab on 7Sage, you can do individual games or create problem sets and filter by game type, difficulty, test number, etc.

I hope things work out for you! @jzhengesq-1

I don't think there's a correct or incorrect answer here, as what you "should" do is highly dependent on your goals, desires, and situation. I'll say this, however: If your LSAT score is so far below your target school(s) median that it'll preclude …

I didn't take the November test, but I've seen multiple people asking about a stem along the lines of, "Which one of the following could be true, but doesn't have to be true?" or "Which one of the following could be true, but need not be true?" I'm…

Which question?

I wouldn’t be concerned about “losing momentum” if you sign up for February. If you’re truly capable of achieving that score consistently, you’ll have more than enough time to straighten out any lulls you’re in before your February date. You could s…

@LSAT_Athlete I could've phrased that better. What I was trying to say is that I wonder if GPA and LSAT will start mattering less for scholarships and other factors, like unquantifiable soft factors, will start mattering more. Additionally, I wonder…

Which question?
-
More than anything, I'm curious how this will affect scholarship generosity. The general wisdom has been that if you get the right GPA and LSAT, you can assume you'll be able to secure good scholarships. If other schools follow suit and LSAT medians…

With the tougher ones, I often focus on eliminating ACs. If you're positive an answer choice doesn't affect the argument or strengthens it, you've got to get confident eliminating it. Sometimes, it hinges on a single word, which can make it intimida…
-
I agree with most of these, though I think flaw can be a bit risky. That's not to say pre-phrasing isn't generally worth it; I'm sure for many, prephrasing helps even if you don't predict exactly what the answer is looking for. In my experience, how…
-
I'd recommend you study the common flaw types from the core curriculum. While flaw questions aren't quite as formulaic as earlier periods, you still see the common flaws used frequently. I found the just being exposed to some of those flaws helped m…
-
Amazing improvement! Congrats!
-
Let me preface all of this by saying that I don't mean to be blunt/sound like a jerk. I just want to be as straightforward as possible with you because admissions officers surely won't sugarcoat: If you're eyeing USC and you're currently at their L…

You shouldn’t expect yourself to answer every 4 and 5 star question correctly. They have that rating for a reason! Particularly when you’re so early in the curriculum, don’t beat yourself up for missing those tougher ones. Instead, focus more on JY’…
