Last year, my application process didn’t go as planned. I realized I needed professional help, so I chose 7Sage, and it turned out to be one of the best decisions I’ve made. Working with Jacob Baska and Daniel Ryu made a significant difference in my application. Despite having a GPA below the 25th percentile, their support helped me gain admission to my T14 dream school.
Jacob, an experienced expert, consistently provided valuable advice. He helped me better understand my situation, prioritize tasks, and manage my time effectively. His assistance was particularly invaluable during my interviews, the part I was most nervous about.
Daniel worked wonders on my writing. He not only helped me select themes that highlighted my unique qualities but also transformed my essays into more polished and sophisticated versions. Everyone who saw my final essays was amazed at the improvement from the original drafts.
As an international applicant, I required more assistance than others might. I’m grateful for how friendly and patient Jake and Daniel were throughout the entire process. I feel incredibly fortunate to have had the opportunity to work with them.

I worked with Brigitte Suhr and Tony Andrews, both of whom were totally amazing. Knowing that they were there to bounce ideas off of made my entire process infinitely less stressful. Both Brigitte and Tony offered encouragement and positivity while also being honest when something wasn’t working. And I got into Yale! Super happy and grateful.

I used 7sage during the 2020-2021 admissions cycle. I was a splitter with a high lsat score and a competitive, but below median, GPA for the schools I was targeting, mainly the T14 and the T6. My consultant Jocelyn Glantz and the rest of the 7sage team worked with me through dozens of essays drafts that allowed my app to stand out and have the impact it needed when it went to review by admissions committees, and they did for a price far more affordable than their peer firms in the law school admissions consulting industry. In the end, I was admitted at four t14 schools, two of them in the top 6, and am attending Columbia Law School this upcoming fall. 7sage was pivotal in helping me achieve that outcome, and was worth every single penny I paid for the service!

As someone admitted to Yale and other T14s, I cannot recommend Tony Andrews enough. He helped me refine my Yale optional essay by providing significant and targeted feedback which helped elevate my written statements, making them much more impactful. He also aided me with a T14 scholarship essay, which resulted in me receiving the full scholarship amount! He also gave me timely feedback and even sacrificed some time from his weekend for me. Words cannot describe how appreciative I am of his diligence and the value of his feedback. If I could, I would give Tony more than five stars!

Thank you 7Sage! My admissions cycle went better than I ever hoped or imagined it would, especially as a “splitter.” I am so grateful to Jacob Baska and Lei Wang for helping me tell my story on my application. Jacob was an enormous wealth of knowledge and advice on everything from LSAT strategy to final edits on supplemental statements. There was no question too big or small, whether it was about retaking the LSAT or if my “why school X” essay was hitting the right mark for the specific school. Lei was also so helpful in pushing me in the right direction for my personal statement topic and helping me fine-tune my supplemental essays. Additionally, Jacob and Lei were both responsive and empathetic throughout my admissions cycle, which made a stressful process so much easier to handle. I’m attending my top choice school in the Fall!

I highly recommend working with Brigitte Suhr and Kristen Gleason! As a splitter, I was unsure how my admissions cycle would turn out, and I knew that my written materials had to be very tight to give me the best shot at the T14. With Brigitte and Kristen’s help, I was admitted (and even received generous scholarships!) to many more schools than I imagined, including Columbia, NYU, Duke, and UVA. I appreciated that Brigitte and Kristen were so responsive to my questions and concerns and gave me the autonomy and confidence I sought in this process. I came away feeling very proud of my personal statement, and I honestly even had fun with the writing process! I definitely recommend 7Sage consulting — and especially Brigitte and Kristen — to anyone anxious about law school admissions and those seeking a guarantee that you’re creating the strongest application possible.

I applied during the 2020 – 2021 admissions cycle, and I purchased the “Admissions Consulting” package. The help was worth every penny, and I am blown away by the many incredible acceptances that I was able to receive. I worked with Aaron Thier and Gail Dauer, both of whom were phenomenal — they were both so knowledgeable, helpful, and kind, and they were able to provide tons of constructive feedback and identify weaknesses in my essays that I had failed to consider. In addition, it was with both of their help that I was able to transform the initial, rather generic draft of my Personal Statement into a much more intimate and specific story that revealed my character and motivations. I am confident that writing this stand-out personal statement with their help was one of the reasons that I got accepted to many of my top choices — among them Harvard Law, where I will be attending this fall. I honestly could not recommend the 7Sage admissions consulting service enough, and it has been the best investment I’ve made in my life so far. Think of this service not as a “purchase”, but rather an “investment” into yourself and your legal education — arguably one of the most important and long-lasting investments you could make!

I worked with Susannah who was an absolute blessing during this process. She edited countless versions of my personal statement and Why X School essays, she was happy to talk whenever I was stuck, she provided quick feedback, and she made sure my applications were flawless. My LSAT score was below my dream school’s 25th percentile, and I truly don’t think I would’ve been accepted without her guidance. She saw my strengths and helped me articulate them, and I’m proud of every essay I submitted. While the admissions consulting package is expensive, it was worth every penny. Thank you Susannah, I’m so grateful!

I worked with Tajira McCoy and Daniel Hwa-Sung Ryu throughout my law school admissions process and I could not be more grateful for their support, kindness, responsiveness, and encouragement.
I am an older applicant, 5+ years out of undergrad, with multiple C+F issues and addenda that I needed to include with my applications, and a 3.16 GPA and 75th percentile LSAT score. Throughout the process, the team encouraged me to apply to a wide variety of schools, always encouraging me to “shoot my shot”. We also focused heavily on creating a cohesive narrative and application. In the end, I outperformed my stats and received multiple acceptances and waitlists to schools that I didn’t think I had a chance at. I’ve officially committed to my top choice with a significant scholarship!
In our first meeting, Taj went through my intake form, stats, and very clearly walked me through how we’ll be working together. After our initial meeting, I found myself emailing Taj a million times with many questions and each time, she provided me with detailed, insightful answers. I was always so impressed with how much thought she put into answering my questions and it was apparent that she was not only invested in my success but truly cared too! Taj is also a wonderful writer and provided constructive criticism and praise (where deserved) and with her help, my applications were tightly cohesive, with absolutely no errors. Lastly, Taj was a grounding force throughout the process and calmed my anxieties while encouraging me to stay positive and hopeful. THANK YOU, Taj! You are great at what you do.
Shortly after getting paired with Daniel, we had an initial call to brainstorm ideas for my written materials. I have no idea how Daniel does it but his ability to listen carefully, extract information, and find common themes to create a greater narrative is so so so impressive. I had an idea of some of the things I wanted to include in my written materials but had trouble connecting the dots. Before working with Daniel, I found myself just retelling events rather than how those events led me to pursue this path. Throughout the writing process, Daniel posed incredibly thoughtful questions and made suggestions that completely transformed my written materials. Daniel was also responsive, providing edits/comments right away, and led with kindness in everything he did, even in providing constructive criticism. THANK YOU, Daniel!

I am beyond grateful to have worked with Meghann Banacki in a particularly competitive cycle.
Meghann made me feel very comfortable from the beginning. She seemed genuinely interested in my story and helped me craft a coherent narrative that was apparent throughout every component of my application. She was very flexible, thorough with her feedback, and respectful of my opinions. I am confident that working with Meghann and following her advice gave me an edge in this cycle. Thanks to her, I will be attending Columbia Law with a fantastic scholarship!I hope some of you have the chance to work with her. She truly is amazing!

Stepping into the game of law school admissions as an international and a more mature applicant, I knew I needed professional help in navigating the process and curating a compelling application package. I am very grateful to have the opportunity to work with Jacob Baska and Tony Andrews, who have assisted me in ways beyond my expectation.
With more than a decade of experience in the field of admissions, Jake helped me build my school list, identified gaps in my application essays which I could strengthen, suggested what addenda I might need to include to cover all the bases, and most importantly make sure that I submit all my applications on time! (I’m very indecisive and tend to drag things out) He always returned with feedback in less than 24 hours and would never hesitate to hop on a call to answer any questions that I had.
Reducing 20+ years of my life into a two-page PS seemed impossible at first. What Tony did was not only textual improvements for my writing, he actually helped me parse my tangled ideas, push my limit, and find my voice in my narration. Through multiple rounds of editing and polishing, he helped me distill my life-changing moment into an exciting 800-word piece.
From start to end, Jake and Tony gave me personalised advice and support. They genuinely care for students’ success. Law school admissions can be very stressful, but I’m so glad to have Jake and Tony to rely on. I started my admissions process as a new immigrant in this country, unsure about where I might be heading. Here I am six months after, thrilled to start law school with a generous scholarship in a city that I love — all made possible by 7Sage!

I had the most amazing experience working with Tony Andrews on my personal statement, and I couldn’t recommend him enough! He provided me with thorough and focused feedback, and he really understood the vision I had for the statement and helped me bring it to life. I feel much more confident about it than I would have otherwise, and I am so glad I did it. I would recommend Tony’s amazing service to anyone looking for help!

I cannot recommend Dawn Corrigan and Jenifer Godfrey enough. Having tried to apply on my own once before, I was really hoping for a strong support system that could help me navigate the stress, scheduling, and expectations that come with applying to law school. Dawn and Jenifer edited and guided me through countless revisions to my Personal Statement, while always encouraging authenticity and loyalty to my story and identity as is. They kept me focused and encouraged even when I did not know how to proceed with certain parts of my application or certain essays. Dawn and Jenifer played a huge role in compiling an application that was successful the second time around and even resulted in a generous financial package I never thought I would receive. It was always clear how incredibly experienced they were in this field, but I am so grateful for their heart to support and create the best possible application WITH the applicant!

Jonathan Gharraie has been so incredibly helpful helping me craft a personal statement. He took the time to get to know me and my story and ensured my voice would not be lost throughout the process.
Writing the PS seemed very daunting at first and I was very overwhelmed with the sheer amount of ideas I felt I needed to include. Jonathan helped me parse through what was really important. I remember once, he said something so profound (paraphrasing): as a writer, sometimes your favorite line is the one that needs to go; however, if you are able to write something as good as that line, then you can write something even better in the future. With this insight, I was able to write a PS I’m very proud of.
Jonathan was also readily available to video chat and talk with me whenever I needed advice on edits. Working with him reduced my anxiety about my app and reassured we could get it done in time. I can’t recommend him & 7sage’s service enough!
I bought the full admissions consulting package and was paired with Jacob Baska and Drew Dickerson. I was incredibly anxious about my law school prospects since my LSAT is below the median for the T20 (and often by a significant margin). The early drafts of my personal and diversity statements were all over the place but Drew helped me organize my ideas and improve the clarity of my writing. Jake reassured me about many of the worries I had about my application and offered useful suggestions that I never even knew were an option to do. Thanks to the help I received from my team, I received multiple offers from T20 schools, including several T14s with scholarships. I truly believe that it was my essays and the cohesive narrative I presented in my application that led me to outperform my stats. This was the best investment I could have made for my legal education and I’m so happy that I will be the first in my family to not only go to law school but go to a T14 with a (near) full ride!
