@nicole.hopkins "because he soothes me..." LOL If only J.Y. was the proctor on test day. I have a 180 watch, they're expensive and I'd say if you can find something comparable for a cheaper price then go for it. They're aesthetically pleasing but I …
It's good to map the MP and to track viewpoint changes for uber complicated passages, everything beyond that is totally personal preference. Mapping takes time away from the passage/questions and it might be better to try and improve your general pa…
@"Dillon A. Wright" Ok, this is embarrassing, but when I tried making the cat thread I couldn't figure out how to er... post pictures. Could you teach me your ways oh learned one? P.S. Thank goodness the LSAT is not on a computer. I'd actually be th…
@"Nilesh S" Yes. This needs to happen. Couldn't agree more. @blah170blah Haha We probably are!!! I was afraid that comment was going to make me look a wee bit pathetic but hey, what happens on 7Sage stays on 7Sage. I'm Megan. I have three cats. The …
First, get the fundamentals. Go over the material and drill until you have a more firm understanding of it. You have the Ultimate course which is already set up for that purpose. If you're still uncertain on anything? Watch the videos again. All of …
@blah170blah Exactly! Facebook? Who needs Facebook. You all understand my life. You all are living my life.
@nicole.hopkins YES! I was just thinking the same thing. What if 7Sage became the only thing we needed in our LSAT spare time. It would be a…
I totally understand the frustration of misreading questions. There was once a question about a raise in the ceiling of halibut catches (meaning the quantity of halibut caught) but from the stimulus I thought it was a device used to catch halibut an…
Totally agree with the amazing mentors on here! @arabprodigy30 Aheb ismak/ek fii 7sage (English translation: I love your name on 7sage! : p)
My advice on the personal statement is to a) write it yourself (you'd be surprised how many people don't do…
@chupacabra I definitely agree with @alexroark5 in the sense that you need to improve your understanding of the relationship between the premises and conclusion and strengthen your ability to attack this relationship perhaps even before you read the…
It's factored into PT time but not for the lessons. I agree with the above comment to take as much time as you need. Also re-do problems and lessons you don't understand. It'll take more time than the schedule suggests but will benefit you in the lo…
Totally agree with @nicole.hopkins I started with Powerscore and it really was a massive time suck. Skip to 7Sage and do their fundamentals first. Then perhaps supplement with other methods but only after you have a solid grasp on the core material.…
Totally agreed. My baseline score crushed my soul and I lost motivation for a few months. But it really means nothing. The most important thing it to learn the fundamentals and practice. Good luck!
I think everyone has a personal method of dealing with anxiety. I shut my phone off so no one can reach me, put my LSAT playlist on (remixes of songs that get me pumped) and walk for at least 15-20 min to whatever location I'll be PTing (where I fre…
Totally normal! And when in doubt, you can always star certain lessons and come back to them. The... probably only not horrible thing about the LSAT is its cumulative nature. So even if a certain question type doesn't click now, you've probably been…
@"Nilesh S" How did you comment faster than me? You're like a wizard...
@shine.on.me It's a good point that a higher score in Dec. is better than a lower score in Oct... Definitely something to think about when considering your test date.
Taking the LSAT before you're ready is never advisable. PT's are a pretty decent indicator as to how well you'll perform come test day, and if you're not pleased with your PT score in October then it's probably better to hold off until the December …
I combat my 'day off' guilt by doing the absolute minimum. I'll maybe do one small quiz or watch a few video lessons totaling 10-15 minutes. Those 10-15 min. are pretty negligible but help me with LSAT separation anxiety. They do not; however, preve…
Yes, I've taken a few PTs in a loud cafe during a weekend rush. I agree with the above posters that it's always good to change the noise level and environments so you don't get used to any single setting and are able to train yourself to focus irres…
@"Nilesh S" I watched it the week before I started LSAT prep. Now every time I hit a particularly ass-kicky section, I resist the temptation to fold it up into a paper plane and watch it fly into the sea. One of these days...
I would have to agree with the two people who posted above. The material is fairly cumulative and reviewing the entire curriculum might prove to be very beneficial even if you're only struggling with certain question types. Drilling specific questio…
It might be worth a shot. I'm also skeptical about the results, but I definitely need to increase my reading speed and will test out the instructions in the article this week and post back with any potential improvement. Jdawg113, I could not agree …
