The digital tester for problem sets is live now! We know a lot of you have been waiting for this—thank you for your patience while we worked on this!
Where are the old PDFs?
Since LSAT is 100% digital testing now, the old PDF option is hidden by default. To see the old PDF options, tap the little PDF icon just under the bottom left corner of the tester.
How to Create Problem Sets
Just like before, you can create custom problem sets with any of the questions you have access to on your account. The difference is that you can take them using the digital tester, and all the problem sets you create are saved and tracked on your account. You can see a list of all the problem sets you have started/created on the Problem Sets page. Problem sets from the curriculum have book icons next to their names.
On that page, tap on "Create Custom Problem Set" to create a problem set. The interface is the same as the old "Question Bank" interface (but now it's faster!).
How to Take Single Sections
To do a single section, you make a custom problem set with the questions for the one section that you want to take. If you aren't familiar with the custom problem set interface, here are more detailed instructions on how to do this:
Drills are deprecated
The "Drills" lessons in Ultimate+ are now deprecated and will be deleted from the curriculum soon. You can easily recreate them with the Problem Sets page, so they don't serve a purpose anymore. For now, until they are deleted, you can still access them so that if you're in the middle of them you still know your current progress.
Please let us know if you see anything strange or broken!

@alan-91620 Thanks for the reply. What are some other ways to track drills and other post-CC exercise that could be explored and are simple, hopefully on this site, but another site that's user-friendly and doesn't require much work to set up would be fine too? Thanks for your consideration.
I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but if you go to the Problem Sets page under Menu > Resources > Problem Sets / QBank (https://classic.7sage.com/problem-sets/), you can see the current status of all the problem sets and drills that you have started listed under the column titled "Current Progress". If you tap on that title, you can also sort by progress. I hope this helps!

I wish during BR, it could show which two I had not eliminated. Instead every AC is not eliminated.
Great idea! The latest update includes this feature. You may need to force refresh to pick it up.
Now you can see during Blind Review which answer choices were eliminated in the actual test. They will have little grey ban icons next to them. You can hide this information by tapping the icon of an eye with a slash through it in the toolbar (second from left).

when I meet with my tutor, I want to give him information about how long each question took, so we can discuss those tough questions that took a long time and blind review them together
Great idea! The latest update includes this feature. You may need to force refresh to pick it up.
The elapsed time is shown under the question stem, and under passages/games. You can hide this information by tapping the icon of an eye with a slash through it in the toolbar (second from left).

Hey, thanks for this great feature! I am wondering how similar the digital tester is to the actual LSAT interface? Will there also be highlighting, the options to eliminate/hide answers during the actual test?
Yes, those features are also in the actual LSAT interface. You can see what the actual LSAT interface looks like here:
https://familiar.lsac.org/
Note: if you haven't already taken any of those PTs, you should avoid reading any of the question content so that you don't spoil those tests for yourself.

Any way we can get the watermark/PT label moved to the bottom or top of the text for RC passages?
Thanks for pointing that out! The latest update includes this change. You may need to force refresh to pick it up.

Hi! Just a bit of feedback that I thought about while studying.
I think it would be a great idea to have a video link on the blind review questions. For example, after we have done the timed portion, then blind review and then go to show questions, having a video link that directs you to the page on the actual question. That way, we don't have to go to: problem set, review results, and then the video explanation. It might just be a bit of a faster way. But I know it's also tedious for you guys to put video links on those questions, too.
I'm not sure if this is what you mean, but you can go directly from the Problem Set list to Results (where the explanation links are), skipping the tester entirely. Normally, when you tap on the row for a Problem Set or PrepTest, you go to the tester for that PSet/PT. But if you instead tap on the blue "Results" link on the far left of the row, jump directly to the results for that PSet/PT.
@cvega2013775 said:
Also, is there a place for little pieces of feedback like these, by any chance? If anyone could chime in! :) I love this site, so I want to contribute the most that I can.
Yup! If you have feedback for the digital tester, just chime in here. Or if you have feedback for other parts of 7Sage, please email studentservice[at]7sage.com!

@alan-91620 Please don't get rid of the PDF options yet. At least some international tests are not going digital yet this year.
This is the response from LSAC, "Thank you for writing. The October 2019 LSAT in Asia will be paper-based, as the LSAT will be fully Digital starting in September at test centers only in North America. You may complete your October registration at this time, and please let us know if you have any additional questions."
Hi, this is an amazing tool.
Quick questions:
Can you "randomize" the questions order? I wanted to create a drill set for all "flaw" questions from PT 1-35, but instead of the PT order, can I have them random?
Can I customize the timing/clock on the the customized problem sets? I'd like to time it based the JY's LG timing recommendations. Also, for LR or RC, can I just keep track of the time spent on the passage/questions without having a "limit"?
BTW I tested an LG and it's amazing to know how long I spent on each question. We must shower 7sage with all the Kudos.
YESSSSS!! Thank you!
@cvega2013775 I have the same issue and have found that I have less issues if I use the fixed theme.
@alan-91620 hey, I am having an issue now with the search filter vanishing on the Create problem sets tab. Works for LG selection, but the search filter vanishes upon selecting Logical Reasoning. On iPad and happens in both the app and through safari.

@changrichard94444 said:
Also, what if you just want to take one section on the digital platform rather than an entire test? Is there a feature for this? Thanks.
To do a single section, you make a custom problem set with just the one section.
Go to https://classic.7sage.com/problem-sets/
Tap "Show Existing Problem Sets" at the top of the page
Set the PT range and section type you are looking for.
Select the questions/passages/games for the section you want to take. (tip: you can filter to a section by typing something like "pt01 s2" into the search bar, then tap the blue shopping cart icon on the top left of the table to select all of them)
Tap "Create Problem Set with..."
Take the problem set.
Note that the default timing for LR problem sets is based on the number of questions, so if you are doing an LR section, it will probably be a little bit off from 35m. If you want to do exactly 35m, you can tap on the clock icon, change to "Unlimited time" and stop the section manually at 35m
@alan-91620 Is there a way to take a FULL PT with unlimited time?
Thank you, this is why I love 7Sage!

@anitra12740 said:
Is there any way to see our previous markups on the digital version of the prep test after BR and getting the results? Or do we have to create a problem set to do that?
Sorry, there is no way to do this right now
Now you can :)
When you look at the tester for a PT or PSet you have completed (not the results, but the tester itself), where you would normally see buttons for "Start", "Continue", or "Blind Review", you should see buttons for "Show Questions"
In this view you can see the questions with any markups you made, your responses and eliminations, and some basic analytics (question difficulty, time spent, etc)

Is there a way to turn off the grey answers while blind reviewing so it's truly blind?
There hasn't been a way to do that until now. Now when you are doing blind review, you should see an icon of an eye with a slash through it . If you tap on that icon, it will hide the answers. The system doesn't save your setting for this right now, so if you leave the tester and come back, it will reset to visible answers.
By deprecated, does that mean in the Ultimate+ you no longer have access to that PDF? You now have to create your own custom "LG Questions by Type Drill - Preptest 60 to 69 (Deprecated)" section through the problem set builder?
@alan-91620 In the future, would it be possible to add different "profiles" to the tester analytics? I am thinking of something similar to the feature where we can select only certain pt's to be included in the analysis. However, "profiles" would make it easier to compare certain tests. I think this would be beneficial, say, in comparing certain strategies against others. It would be similar to a permanent analysis of certain specific pt's that you could rename and compare.
Is there a way to turn off the grey answers while blind reviewing so it's truly blind?
@jessicapinheiro548 said:
where do I find the digital tester ?
You should see the digital tester where there is a PT or problem set.
For PTs, they should show up in places like here:*
https://classic.7sage.com/score-lsat-test/
https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/preptest-june-2007-blind-review-score-and-review/
Note that if you already manually entered answers for a preptest, you won't see the digital tester for that preptest. If you want to take it with the digital tester, you will need to delete your existing preptest data.
For Problem Sets, they should show up in places like here:
https://classic.7sage.com/problem-sets/
https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/main-point-main-conclusion-questions-problem-set-1/
@changrichard94444 said:
Will a feature be added, or am I missing one that's there, that lets you go directly to the Explanation videos for the Problem Set questions?
+1

Is there a way to do a problem set untimed for drilling purposes...
@thecmancan884 @16guitar123
Thanks for the suggestion! The latest version of the tester now has an option for unlimited time for problem sets. You may need to force refresh to pull the change. The option is listed under the clock icon. The "Remaining:" timer becomes an "Elapsed:" timer. The progress gauge at the bottom is based on default timing for your reference, but there is no 5m warning and nothing happens when the bar is filled.
@tristanlocke1237 said:
Trying to take a timed section and it gives me only 34:30 secs, instead of 35 mins.
Sorry about that! Problem set default timing is based on the number of 1.33m/question and 8.75m/passage-game. So for complete LR sections it ends up varying based on the number of questions. I know this isn't the exact solution that you are looking for, but if you use the new unlimited timing, you can end your session at 35m manually. Sorry!
I'm going through the CC for the first time. I'm not concerned with timing.
Is it possible to turn off the timer and go straight to blind review? Thanks
@joncampbell04301 said:
@alan-91620 just wanted to let you know that PT14 G3 Q13 cuts off the third column in the answer choices. Thanks for all your help!
Thank you for letting us know! Sorry, some of the older PTs (58 and lower) have fixed spacing for a few questions. If you run into this issue, these solutions should help:
Change to a "Fixed" theme. All questions should fit on the screen in Fixed mode when font-size is medium or smaller.
Reduce the font size.
Thanks you so much! However I'm having trouble with pinning questions on the review results page. I can see the pins for questions I already pinned in other places but unable to pin/unpin on this page.
Thank you!!
This is so dope! Thanks for setting us up for the real deal!
I love the blind review option however, anyone else notice that the answer you selected during the set is darker than the other four bubbles? Not helpful for BR. @alan-91620
I AM SO HAPPY YAS

@alan-91620
Are you able to delete practice sets you create? I was playing around with it just to get a feel and now I can't seem to delete these sets.
Yup! You can delete them by tapping the little red trashcan under the bottom left corner of the problem set.
I am also having the same issue on videos not showing answers.

Thanks guys this is really cool. One thing I noticed that was broken for my account (I don't know if this is just mine or everyone's) is that the answer button on the single walk through questions don't work anymore - as in the bar that drops down and tells you how difficult the question was and what score range tended to get the question right.
