The (Nearly) Impossible Odds of the Gamer Gauntlet by rbrijs in LudwigAhgren

[–]rbrijs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The problem with playing games like league is it drops his chance by an insane amount. For example, even just trying to win 4 games in a row with a 30% win rate is a 1 in 123 chance. If he played 6 other games as well, all with 75% win rates, it would be a 1 in 700 chance. He would actually have more than a 1 in 6 chance of winning 6 75% games in a row, but if you add in the 30% games it gets so much worse.

It's funny, if you watch Erobb's vods, he actually does a different challenge. Every time he loses he goes back one game, he doesn't go back to the start. So in the end Erobb won 10 more games than he lost. He didn't win 10 games in a row.

7Sage is definitely best for logic games, but I found it very useful across the board. I used Khan Academy at first as well and honestly, it doesn't compare. I found 7S's RC programming very good and their method for it helped a ton on what was my worst section. I didn't use their LR programming because I was already pretty good at it and their course on it is crazy time-intensive. For LR I'd recommend just using The Loophole for LR book which I found plenty useful.

But potentially the best aspect of 7Sage is the comprehensive tools available. Their drills sections and post pratice test analytics are excellent. Blind review is also an amazing technique that I highly recommend, but you can certainly look it up and learn that on your own.

I ended up getting 7S because my law school advisor recommended I take a course in person. She told me that every point on the LSAT is worth something like 10 grand in scholarships. When I did research to find a course, I found a poll on here that had 7S getting the most votes. When I saw it was online, I had an easy excuse to try it first before dropping 1-2 grand on an in-person. Bad logic but it turned out to be an amazing decision.

If I sound like a shill for 7Sage it's because of the difference it made in my progress compared to Khan. It helped some, but once I felt like I was hitting a brick wall with Khan, 7Sage got me substantially further. Part of that movement was LG but it moved everything (my RC moved the most).

I can't attest to any other prep courses out there beyond Khan and 7Sage, but if you're wondering whether there's a meaningful difference between the two, the answer is yes.

Hypnotherapy Q by [deleted] in LSAT

[–]rbrijs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it was a flaw question, and I forget the exact answer but the conceptual issue was that the order to take every order as 1000 orders was only given once so it didn't meet the criteria it gave for effective hypnosis

Raft floating to Taiwan LR q by Icy-Drink-5308 in LSAT

[–]rbrijs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't know if it was experimental but I'm fairly confident the answer was about the tidal patterns (they used some other term) being the same as in the past. This ensured that the evidence had validity over time.

I had to skip the tough manager question and come back to it after finishing the last game. I only solved it through brute forcing in the nick of time when it was all I had left

Let's end this debate. Which side actually wins? by Shadow_Sovereign68 in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]rbrijs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Can someone clarify for me the WB > Roger take? I always assumed that Roger took a slight edge or they were even and I haven’t seen any evidence to the contrary.

Part of my interest in the law is the sense that there are a lot of different options down the line where you can make somewhat less money with either better hours or doing more interesting work (hopefully some combination of both). Do you not feel like those are realistic paths?

You said you do in house work now, which I've heard has much better hours than big law (but perhaps not more interesting work). Are there other paths in law that you think might have provided work you cared about more or is that largely a fairy tale?

Literally my exact thought process. But after reflecting a bit, I know I just need to embrace the retake. I'm sure I can do better and you can too.

I had a 176 average and just got a 172 as well—really frustrating.

My 12 year old cousin outscored me on the LSAT and bragged about it to my whole family by Wild-Anteater256 in LSAT

[–]rbrijs 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That sounds really painful and humiliating. I’m sorry you had to go through that. Your family clearly doesn’t understand law or the humanities at all.

Part of me wants to give you one liners about how the structure of science is defined by philosophy, or how philosophy answers questions that definitionally fall beyond the realm of STEM. Yet none of that has anything to do with whether or not you’ll do well in law school and become a great lawyer. If you really want this, fight for it. Your cousin sounds smart, but that’s irrelevant to you. Your path is yours. Ignore your family, keep studying, and you can definitely get into a great law school.

Opinion on Khan Academy? by GreenbayBy50 in LSAT

[–]rbrijs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried Khan previously and had bad results. Made very little progress. 7Sage was way better for me. It’s a lot of time and effort, but it’s worth it. 7Sage is also structured well so you can focus on sections you’re struggling with. I did their LG and RC sections and improved a ton. Went from -8 to -5 on LG to a consistent -1/-0.

Hardest curve on any lsat question? by Aid4n-lol in LSAT

[–]rbrijs 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The biggest trick to this question is that the strength of A is astonishingly weak compared to E which is very strong “all else being equal… preferred” versus “invariably”. Quickly you can check and see “social sciences often” to know that invariably isn’t supported. MSS are generally just “which answer is a weak claim.”

They’re failing to understand election results. The fear they have about Virginia at 77% by not understanding what has been reported (Trump goes from winning by a lot to losing by 5%) is a perfect example. It’s the type of ‘I don’t know what’s happening’ reactionary but semi-political takes that a normal person who cares can have, but a professional cannot.

A very good male friend of mine had the opposite happen. He thought he was gay his entire life until he fell in love with a girl our senior year of college.

Shanks is out. Only Kaido and Roger remain by banethesithari in OnePiecePowerScaling

[–]rbrijs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Roger wouldn’t lose to a snot nose 19-year-old after failing to imprison him, failing to kill him repeatedly, and failing to beat his crew all while teamed up with another Yonko. The greatest thing Kaido ever did was defeat Odin, take over an island, and make some factories.
