My best PT so far! It's great to see the work paying off.
However, given the jump from my previous scores, I'm hesitant to take this as a definite marking point. Does anyone have any tips for consistency at this level (and translating a PT to a real logged score)?
Thank you 7Sage for the games!
Aside from it being a new fun way to learn, I found it quite illuminating that some things that I thought were a bit challenging for me are more challenging than I thought, and the things I was concerned about I am better at than I thought.
Awesome new tool.
I am taking the August test and have been super confident in LR for a bit. -5 is basically the worst LR section im getting at all, I just cant get my RC up. RC scores will at best be -7 no matter what. Does anyone have any advice.
PT 155 put BTA on me on a fine Sunday afternoon. RC was so bad for me that I lowkey think JY and Kevin are about to trade me for some picks to clear up that cap space.
in all honesty, a 160 is still a decent score for my goals. but god damn, pt 155 got me thinking 170+ is a ring and I am James Harden

Independent TutorHi 7Sage users!
I posted here in June and ended up filling most of my tutoring availability with students preparing for the August LSAT. Since many of those students are now approaching test day, I expect a few additional spots to open soon for students who are seeking individualized LSAT support.
About me: I scored a 180 on the LSAT and have been tutoring for the test full-time since then. I work with students across different score ranges, from those still building their foundation to those trying to break into the high 160s and 170s. My focus is on making the test feel less random by helping students build a clear, repeatable process.
My approach: I do not think LSAT tutoring should just be someone explaining questions after you miss them. Most students already understand explanations once they hear them. The harder part is learning how to see the issue before choosing an answer.
For Logical Reasoning, I focus on argument structure, flaw recognition, prediction, and wrong-answer elimination. We work on identifying what the argument is actually doing, where it is vulnerable, and what the correct answer needs to accomplish.
For Reading Comprehension, I focus on structure, viewpoint, author attitude, and passage organization. The goal is not to memorize every detail, but to understand how the passage is structured and where to return for support when a question asks for it.
Sessions are interactive. I want to hear how you are thinking through the question before I explain it. That lets us figure out whether the issue is comprehension, timing, answer choice discipline, confidence, or review habits. From there, we build a study plan around your actual weaknesses rather than using a one-size-fits-all approach.
Good fit for students who:
feel inconsistent across practice tests
understand explanations after the fact, but miss similar questions later
struggle with timing or confidence
want a clearer process for LR and RC
are trying to move from the 150s into the 160s, from the 160s into the 170s, or 170+
want more structure in their weekly study plan
Options: I offer both 1:1 tutoring and weekly group classes.
1:1 tutoring:
Single session: $120/hour
Weekly group class (max of 10 people):
Drop-in class: $25/class
I also offer a free consultation so we can talk through your current score, goal score, timeline, and whether tutoring would be a good fit.
To book, comment here or send me a private message on 7Sage, and I’ll send over a scheduling link. Happy to answer questions as well.
hey everyone! i posted on reddit and thought i would give a try here as well even though i'm mainly only seeing americans LOL
i'm looking to make a study group / find study buddies that are preferably in canada (alberta would be even better, calgary would be awesome) as i'm currently studying for the september 2026 LSAT and would love some company to get through this miserable time! if this sounds like something you'd be interested in, please comment or reach out!
Hi Everyone - I'm wondering if anyone is having a similar issue to me.
I have been taking the full practice tests on LawHub directly and noticed that once the 5 minute warning appears, I'm not longer able to select (or blur) any answer choices. I'm able to get passed it by exiting full screen then clicking it again, it seems to give the system a little reset, but who knows if I'll be able to do that on test day.
I have already emailed LSAC and I'm waiting to hear back but I'm wondering if this is happening to anyone else? Really hoping to not have any more surprises before August..
This is really exciting for me and is my highest PT so far! If anyone has any tips to both maintaining this score and pushing my limit higher, please let me know!
I'm kind of confused. I took a PT tonight and wasn't able to answer 5 questions- ran out of time. I am working on BR right now but my score timed isn't adding the 5 questions that I didn't do, so my score is "higher" because of that. Like it didn't count the ones I didn't do wrong, so they are basically counted right. Does anyone know why that is the case?
Hey all! To give more context, I am doing my LSAT prep while working full time so I really have to balance the value I get from my drills with the amount of drills I do! I've noticed that the medium length for a practice block is too much for me as I usually have to sacrifice some part of my day to do my WAJ for all of those drills. However, the light length for the practice block is too little and I'd have to supplement it with my own drills anyway leaving me with not a great use for it. What I think would be really useful would be a manual process to structure each day in the practice block because I'd love to do one section a day + 1 or 2 drill sets 4 days a week, rest and then do my PT on Saturday and review Sunday. So basically being able to say on day 1, I want to add one LR section and one tutor's pick drills and then on day 2 say I want to add an LR section + only 1 drill targeting my weaknesses or something like that, basically just more thorough control over how a practice block is structured.
I have zoomed out at 33% before I can see both the question, explanation, and the AI chat box. But they are way too small. When I make it bigger the AI chat takes up more of the page. Is there any way we can make questions bigger and the right one a bit smaller and customize it?
I take my lsat in August and I'm looking for 1 or 2 sessions of tutoring before my test to tried to figure out exactly what I'm doing wrong. When it comes to reading comp, timing is definitely the issue. I either spend way too much time on the passage or try to read it faster and then not fully grasp everything. Casual and conditional reasoning have been my most missed questions and I wonder if there's something I'm not fully understanding that a tutor can help point out. Please reach out.
currently for RC drills on manual selection, there is only the option to filter by difficulty and PASSAGE type. But i would like the option to filter by question type as well. i think it would be useful to drill passages with those question types where I know I am lacking.
This kinda filter view is available on the "Questions" page, but not the drill page. So i was relying on that to add passages manually in the drill.
Does anyone have a good reccomendation of how to set up their wrong answer journal. Thank you!
Big jump from my 164 on my last PT. Is it time to turn to private tutoring to close the gap between this and a 170+ score? Or at least score this high consistently?
I've been struggling with RC but the bible really improved my score.
My LR has been plateaued for a month (not including that exp section) as -4 is my average. What are my next steps?!
random q: the study schedule generated for me did not include some of the "try me" questions listed in the LR reviews (for example i was only asked 5/13 from the RRE section). Was this for a reason or should i go back and complete the ones listed under "all lessons"? thanks!
Hi! I've been studying for the past few months and scored a 162 last November and a 163 this June. While my understanding of the test has improved significantly, and I consistently score in the high 160s to mid-170s during Blind Review, my timed PT scores have plateaued.
My biggest challenge isn't content knowledge; it's execution under timed conditions. When the clock is running, I struggle to process information efficiently, make predictions, and confidently eliminate answer choices, even on questions I can solve correctly during review. I know my understanding is there, but I'm having trouble translating it into timed performance.
I'm looking for a tutor who specializes in helping students improve execution under pressure: building a reliable thought process, making decisions confidently under time constraints, and developing the mental consistency to perform during full-timed sections the way I do in drills and Blind Review. If you've helped students overcome this kind of timing and execution gap, I'd love to connect.
I took the June LSAT and I still haven't submitted my writing sample! I put so much focus on the multiple choice exam that I didn't even give thought to the writing portion. Now I have questions and I really need to get this done. For instance, do you need to actually complete the entire essay? I struggle with the time constraints so I'm not confident I can draft a whole quality essay in less than an hour. Also does it have to be several paragraphs long? I've read some example submission and they seem way too long to convey simple thoughts or ideas. Help please!!!
Looking for an online study partner! I am currently in rural MN so I can't meet up in person. Ideally would like to do body doubling for a minimum of 2 hours daily and write a timed PT under exam conditions every Saturday. We can then go through the exam together, identify weak areas, explain reasoning to each other, and set goals for the following week. Accountability buddy style. Am open to anything else the other person needs to succeed, these are just what I would really like to see :) We can also edit each other's personal statements and essays!
Bit of background on me:
I have only done one PT, but my baseline is 160. Aiming for 174+. I am a non-traditional student with a medical background, hoping to pursue a career in pharmaceutical law. ADHD. Would prefer female study buddies!
Hi All,
I took the LSAT in 2025 and am starting law school in the fall. Like you, I studied under a tutor; I will bring only actionable steps that made a difference in my own performance curve.
For roughly two to three months, I took enough practice tests to start seeing questions before falling asleep at night. I'd like to help you hit your target score much sooner than that point, and with far fewer tests.
Wherever you may be (phase-wise) in your prep, I'll hit the ground running with you to help devise an efficient routine. I started at a baseline score of 150, and hit 170 in my prep after worrying less about scoring fluctuations (ironically).
The authors have all the time in the world to design questions that attempt to confuse, distort, and frustrate your beliefs—resulting in a test of your tension tolerance as much as any general reasoning ability. I will make sure to include practice strategies to mitigate overwhelming nerves or common stress.
Another area of interest I'd love to assist you with: any application essays you may have or want to start considering. I'm from a family of writers and see the drafting phase of an application as a chance to understand yourself from a stranger's perspective.
Let me know if you'd like to start studying.
In LR, the non correct answers are not just “less correct” in comparison to the credited answer, they also generally have something which makes them, in isolation, a bad answer and easily eliminated.
Is the same true for RC? Or will there be times when two answers are plausible and you have to make a judgement call which is better.
Obviously one AC is more supported than the other and one can understand that support and the rationale from the passage, but I’m wondering whether in RC one can generally assume there will be things actually wrong with the non credited answers.
Thanks sm!!
Hi everyone! I'm about a month away from taking the September LSAT, and I'm starting to wonder if I should postpone to October. I've been studying consistently since June, but I'm still scoring around -8 in both LR and RC. I'm reviewing my mistakes and trying different strategies, but I don't feel like I'm where I need to be yet.
Since I don't have the strongest GPA, I'm hoping for a higher LSAT score to strengthen my application. I'm worried that taking the September test before I'm ready could hurt me, but I'm also concerned about delaying my application if I move to October.
Would it be best take the September test or postpone to October? Can I improve significantly by then? I'd really appreciate the advice. Thanks!
