Greetings everyone! I'm using 7Sage to prep for the LSAT for the first time after a couple previous attempts, and I recently finished with the Theory Lessons from my Study Plan tab, however I'm having trouble keeping pace with the drills the practice block is recommending to me. First off, I was recently diagnosed with ADHD. In general, it takes me longer to do assignments and tasks even when I'm focused and this has been a lifelong issue. Since I'm still pretty new to putting the 7Sage Method of Blind Review into practice as well, I find that the Practice Block Drills recommended to me off the Study Plan usually take hours longer than what is prescribed. Secondly, I'm a working man. On most days, I can put in an hour or two of studying with the weekend dedicated to heavier sessions, but with the Study Plan Practice Blocks, I spend most of my time catching up to previous Practice Block Drills with the weekend being much of the same. My highest score on the 2nd Attempt on the LSAT was a 157, and I'm aiming to get to the 175+ range by June. My biggest concern now is that I'm not spending the time that I have effectively drilling by sticking with the Practice Block Drill Sets. Am I overreacting or being impatient? Do I just need to take the time to learn and adapt to the routine, or are there alternatives to the Study Plan Practice Blocks I can do on here that are just as effective with my schedule? Do people even use the Study Plan Practice Blocks? Any feedback is appreciated, thanks in advance!

Hello! I also have ADHD, and I have chosen not to have accommodations (although this can be an option for you). I don't personally follow the study plan, as I tend to do better scheduling on my own; however, I am also able to study full time so it may be beneficial to follow a guide that will help keep you accountable when you're working. You can customize your study plan to include less practice block drills, and start doing more timed practice with WAJ (wrong answer journal review) -- that's currently what I am doing. You have three full months until June, so I would try to break up the next fifteen weeks into manageable goals per week (i.e. setting a target week to reach 160, 165, etc). This may make things a little less overwhelming!
You're definitely not overreacting, and you may feel a little impatient -- it's part of the process! Wishing you luck!
