Hi all,

I do almost all of my LSAT study/prep with PowerScore, but I've done a little bit recently with 7sage (mostly just watching some of the videos on the 7sage site). There is one type of game, which 7sage refers to as In/Out games, that 7sage administrators say is the basis of grouping games. Whether or not this is the case (happy to hear opinions on this), what is the PowerScore equivalent of an In/Out game? Is it the Undefined grouping game? Two examples of what 7sage calls In/Out games are PT33 games 2 and 3.

Thanks in advance!

No, these are just standard Grouping games with an Overloaded number of variables. So, a game that has one group of 5, but 8 variables would be 5 in/3 out. Or, a game with two groups of 4 but 9 variables would be 4 in/4 in/1 out. Any time you have excess, unused variables then you have what they call an In/Out game. Our classifications tend to be more specific however.

You have to remember that 7Sage came into LSAT prep years after us and definitely took some inspiration from us, but couldn't use our game names so they switched it up and made their own names.

Please let me know if that helps. Thanks!
