  • One thing I've found to be helpful is in wrong answer journaling, I idenitfy the question stem of every single question I review with a tag so I can ctrl f it in my journal later, but I also do the same thing if the question heavily relies on condit…
  • 100% possible. Keep grinding, keep doing PTs, drills, blind reviewing, wrong answer journaling, taking care of yourself, the whole shabang. Took me probably 5-6 months to move from 150s to high 160s but (a) I was doing school full time (and you won'…
  • If you're already getting -1 to -2 on RC, then disregard the next paragraph: You need to be reviewing RC and studying it. I don't know exactly what your typical score breakdown is, but I'd imagine if you haven't been studying RC then you aren't get…
  • I wouldn't worry too much about the drill fluctuation for now - last week I got like 7/12 on a Medium Weaken drill and then got a 170 on a PT a few days ago. Your state of mind varies a lot day to day. Focus on your weaknesses: hopefully you'll see…
  • What I think JY's saying is "C and E are part of Haffer's hypothesis . . . relative to what was true millenia ago in the Amazon." So they're not useful points in evaluating the current state of the Amazon, but they're still part of Haffer's hypothes…
  • If I put on shoes AND socks, then I will go to the store. I need both of those things to be met in order for the sufficient condition to be satisfied. If I forget my socks, I'm not going to the store. If I forget my shoes, I'm also not going to the…
  • @saraolsson Glad I'm not alone but sad to hear you're suffering through the same. I was not expecting the point about capitalism, but it's honestly a helpful way to look at things. Also the point on diet is helpful! Idk where you're at in your pe…
  • I'm late to the party, but I remember that 150s to 160s jump! Huge motivation boost and evidence that YOU'RE KILLING IT!!!
  • I came to 7sage after doing curriculum sort of study from another service, so I can't speak to the effectiveness of the 7sage example videos, but it looks like there are only 7 walk through passages, ~9 hours. With 2.5-3 weeks until the August test,…
  • I found the strategy outlined in this thread from a few years ago to pretty helpful: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/26560/my-guide-to-reading-comprehension-part-1-long-ish-post
  • Glad my baseball analogy didn't fall on deaf ears and thanks for the advice! I think one thing that I can def do to focus more on the vibes bucket is work on having a more consistent sleep schedule running up to test day. What do you do to keep you…
  • I usually just write down a one-sentence summary of each paragraph of a passage, note any important tone indicators/things that indicate structure and then try to analyze each question in a similar way to what I do for LR: analyze the Stem, go throu…
  • @equallyyoked To your first point, the naturally high LSAT scorer WON'T automatically do well in law school. LSAC (https://www.lsac.org/data-research/research/lsat-still-most-accurate-predictor-law-school-success#:~:text=Research reinforces the val…
  • I could be wrong, but I think what the Modern PTs do (I'm assuming you mean 101-158) is give you three sections from one of the older PTs and then throw on an experimental section from another one of those older PTs. That experimental section wasn't…
  • "Chat, what are we thinking here? Does my conditional logic diagramming look good?" Ngl I've pretended to be Twitch streaming my studies sometimes just to stay focused and force myself to talk through things to make sure I really understand them. C…
  • I'll take a stab at this one! Prem 1: Book Published-->Nguyen Recommend Prem 2: Nguyen Recommend-->Dean Promote CONC: Important + WW-->Dean Promote So, there's a big gap in the Conclusion: the introduction of "importance" and quality of…
  • Something I used to do was read a random article a day from one of the following journals: -Marqutte Intellectual Property & Innovation Law Review -American Indian Law Journal -American Journal of Jurisprudence -Standford Environmental Law J…
  • Most of what I've read says that while optional, additional letters of rec can often be redundant - even if you're confident all four will be glowing evaluations of your work. So I wouldn't say there's a downside per se, but I can't see much upside…
  • Hey anuraagroutray! If you hover over the "Practice" tab at the top of 7sage, then click on "Analytics", then you should see three tabs underneat the header "LSAT Test Analytics". They should say "Trends", "Question Table", and "Score Converter". Y…
  • I agree. The Economist is definitely a higher brow than most popular news outlets, but it's nothing crazy, especially if you enjoy reading high-level philosophy stuff. Like I can't say I'd put a given Economist article on the same plane as some of t…
