I think this is a great thing to do. Writing things out has always helped me cement new concepts or approaches into my mind. I think the best thing you can do is to first write out how you arrived at your answer choice and then watch the explanation…

@taschasp said: If you're just getting through CC, I would recommend you not worry too much about timing at first, and focus more on reading properly: asking the right questions while you read, reading for reasoning structure and purpose, anti…

I would think if that happens it would be similar to how they run the writing section with remote proctoring.

I think the CDC is recommending no more than 10 people gathering now for the next 8 weeks. And several cities and one state that I’m aware of are ordering people to stay home. So I can’t imagine the April LSAT will be happening in the usual manner. …

@FindingSage @taschasp @danielbrowning208 Thank you all for taking the time to share your thoughts and processes! I greatly appreciate how helpful the sages and everyone here on 7Sage is! Truly a unique community.

@taschasp said: This thread from a couple months ago was also on the same question of the effectiveness of BR for 170+, and whether you should change your approach. Take a look and I hope it's helpful! https://classic.7sage.com/discussion…

@FindingSage Thank you for your response! After I review an LR problem that took up too much time, I struggle a bit with being able to put into words the takeaway I have learned. It just doesn't seem so clear to me that I can say "Next time I will …

@"Cant Get Right" said: I sometimes struggle with 3-star questions and often breeze through 5-star curve breakers. For the purposes of BR, “easy” is definitely a subjective standard, and I should BR the subjectively difficult 3-star and exclud…

Congratulations! Job well done!

I love this post! I’m taking this time to work on building stamina with reading complex materials on topics I have not really been interested in. Prior to this I always had an excuse to go out and do something else! I think too that this is a grand …

I gave myself the day after the exam to chill but then I kept studying with my usual routine. But that was back when I had a lot more fresh PTs. Now I would probably focus more on retakes. Everyone is different but I have never benefitted from takin…

The improvement you have made already in such a short time is really incredible! Have you used 7Sage’s curriculum? I can’t speak for The Trainer but I did use the Bibles and PowerScore workbooks and did not find them too helpful. JY’s methods for di…

@dlstudy1 said: Based on my understanding of the Q Stems Quiz, if the stimulus direction flows up, you strengthen. If it flows down, you find the MP. For example, a question stem that says, "Which one of the following, if true adds the most …

It’s important to first understand the stimulus by identifying premises and the conclusion if it has one. But then you should be looking for an answer choice that is supported by the stimulus. Don’t look for an AC that strengthens the stimulus, rath…

Welcome to the 7Sage family! And congratulations on your great scores. I don’t think there is any better resource for LG than JY’s videos. Everyone is different for sure but my experience with the PowerScore Bibles is that they weren’t helpful. JY …

I started out my LSAT studies by going through a PowerScore course, the Bibles and workbooks. My score actually declined over 5 months using PowerScore until I discovered 7Sage. For LR especially, I had to practice forgetting PS’s methods and applyi…

That is so true about visualizing! As a result the LSAT has actually helped me to build a stronger imagination and to be more creative. Who would have thought. I also break down complex sentences that use referential phrases. Whenever I read a sen…

I remember this stage of my studying. I think what Richard said is important. I wouldn't even consider the timing element until after you are doing well translating. Are you using the logic flashcards in the course? If you haven't already, try drill…

Lucas, do you think this issue could be responsible for the difference between timed score and BR score?

Sami, I hope you feel better soon! Thank you for all that you do!

Cindy is awesome! My improvements in RC are thanks to her!

Discipline is how I improved to where I am. I have a routine and I stick to it even when I don’t feel like it. Also tracking the work I have done motivates me because I see that if nothing else, I can be disciplined. As for resources, The Loophole …

Thank you for the tip! I tried it out today and it helps!

Congrats! Please do write that longer post. Right now reading other's testimonies has been what keeps me going.

For UT: Is it better to try and apply at the tail end of this application cycle and risk being rejected due to the late timing or to wait until the next application cycle to apply early? How does UT view people who apply for a second time after bein…

@DivineRaze thank you for sharing!

@DivineRaze can I ask what you have been scoring and for how long you studied with PS and then 7Sage before you saw improvements? I also started out with PS and studied using their material for 4 months with no improvement to my score at all. My dia…

I'm interested in joining. Planning on taking LSAT in Jan/Feb.

I am looking at Jan/Feb so count me in.
