@OneFortyDotSix said: True. I definitely hope that's the case for law schools/law school applicants. On a related note - Daily Wire, in case you weren't aware, is run by Ben Shapiro. He graduated Harvard Law I think at age 22 and practice…

@Nabintou said: For people who've previously written the test, do you (highly) recommend taking Friday completely off? Or, think light studying (drilling weaknesses, for exp.) is fine? It's almost like training for a marathon, you wouldn't r…

Maybe try watching the free Khan Academy videos available thru LSAC? I've been watching them and they've helped drive home certain points.

Sounds good! I’m reviewing my latest PT and plan to rewatch some LR videos from the CC and drill questions. The free Khan Academy videos on LR have been super helpful too. About 2 (+) hrs of study a day is a sweet spot for me. Good to have defrag ti…

I was scoring below for quite some time and then took a few days off (to defrag and process) and rewatched some of the videos from the CC (esp LR) and the free study videos on Khan Academy (free prep thru LSAC). I took the July test to figure out wh…

I echo the above advice -- it's best to keep your regular routine. Like, no downing a new energy drink you've never had before on the morning of.

The name "Seeking Perfection" is highly appropriate then!

@mynameisjeff said: @"aviated.wings" oooooo true. maybe he is similar to Frankenstein... Philosophy major?

I am in a similar boat as you. I took the July test but initially was only going to take the September test. I am so glad that I took the July test because I got a better feel of what test day is like. I felt less pressured and just did the best tha…

One of the top resources in the biz: https://www.martindale.com/ (Martindale-Hubbell). Great online database -- first of its kind.

I have been in your boat! I just graduated last week but had been doing LSAT study while finishing up my degree. Breaking up the study time helps since we have only so much hours in the day. For example, I would do maybe an hour in the morning and t…

First off, this made me laugh, cry, and wonder (thank you so much). Perhaps Mr. Potato Head is a sum of his parts? Indeed, his moving parts are what give him wholeness. It seems that the host body is not necessary for his moving parts to function. O…

I agree with the above comments. Reading slower and mouthing some of the words (without actually saying them aloud) helps me. I also actively use my pencil to direct where I am in the reading. This combo seems to help with understanding and focus. I…

@btownsquee said: Currently Mansfield Park by Jane Austen Great choice!

Just finished Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens and now reading Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen. I'm trying to read many of the classics before starting law school.

I take my PTs next to an open window in my house so I can hear all the outside noise. Trying to train myself to concentrate even with other things going on in the background. It has actually helped too.
-
I took the July test as a "tester" in prep for the Sept. test. Pretty much July was a test run for me in prep for the main event in September. My PT a week after the July LSAT jumped 11 pts from the PT I took before the LSAT. Interesting phenomenon!…

@BinghamtonDave said: I got a 168, I'm very happy, but am planning a retake for a few extra points/possible scholarship money. It has been a long and exciting journey and I credit 7Sage with a huge part of my success. Philippians 4:13 …

Less pressure = more relaxed to answer the questions! I’ve experienced the same thing. I like to make connections with the reading too. Like, if the passage is about theatre then I’ll make a connection to my younger years in drama class. You can mak…

@MissChanandler said: Yeah you'll get an email! Thanks for the reply!

Depending on your religious preferences, prayer time before bedtime works for me! Deep breath and release!

@MissChanandler said: YES to Anna Karenina, it's a good book and the convoluted paragraph long sentences are both good practice and tiring. Haha -- love this! I'm currently reading "A Tale of Two Cities" and the convoluted sentences and Old …

Does anyone know if you get an email when the score is posted?

Super excited for Monday! Took a PT yesterday and blind reviewed some of it today. Watched some JY videos on difficult logic games too. Watching Dark Knight Rises tonight and going to a concert in the park tomorrow. Best to not change too much in yo…

A nice pair of slacks and a dress shirt sounds great. No extremes at either spectrum is good advice. So, no jeans or open-toed shoes and no 3 piece suits. Sounds like you already know what to do!

Oooo -- sounds fun! Some of my ideas are below which can be tweaked with or without the 7Sage name. 7Sage Precedent 7Sage Rule of Law 7Sage Jurist 7Sage At Bar 7Sage Advice Brief In re 7Sage Advice Excited to see the blog roll out!

Same here! I’m actually writing a paper on this topic for my Logic & Legal Reasoning course. Neat to know that we are getting smarter by taking the LSAT Wish you the best!

I vote for "Personal Statement Basics" and all related info on how to pick a topic for your main essay. Thanks for the webinar!
