Self-study
1. The Inconvenience of the New Drill Flow Recently, the update changed how drills work in the study plan—they now start automatically. This is very inconvenient because:
I can no longer adjust the specific level or details of a drill right before starting.
Having to go all the way to the General setting page every single time just to change one drill's setting is highly inefficient for tailored practice.
Request: Please bring back the old style where we could see and adjust the settings page before the drill begins.
The previous workflow was much more user-friendly for LSAT preparation.

@JJLLe I hear you. I've made another discussion forum post to ask other people what they think: https://7sage.com/discussion/57855/should-study-schedule-drills-auto-start
Feel free to weigh in there as well.
@David_Busis Please change it back I need to adjust the timing for my accommodations
I actually really like this feature. It's forcing me to get out of my comfort zone. When I was able to select everything for myself, I would just select untimed practice every time with the excuse that I was still studying, which is fine, but I kind of needed to push myself in terms of time, and well, now I can't really cheat myself. This is also how the LSAT proceeds. Once you start, you can't really choose anything, and this feature really helps me get into that mindset... the mindset that I'm subject to what the LSAT writers will choose for me and not what I will choose for myself. At first I was really against it, but now that I think about it, this is really the help that I needed.
Plus, you can still change your settings if that's what you want. It's not like they're taking the option completely away. So I personally like it. I have seen lots of people complaining about it, so I just wanted to voice my support. I'm the type of person that can't force herself to do anything that will make her life more complicated, I really need people to force me to do things. This is why I'm very excited about this change.
Yes, I don't understand why they would take that away. How am I supposed to practice specific Conditional Reasoning questions only? It was the feature I most relied on. Idk if I will need to switch platforms or if they will fix this
@elst678 If you go to drills, there's a section down below that says "Drill by Tag", and you can find the tags that you want to target there specifically. You can also custumize everything there.
@UcraniaMerino I think you may be using the old UI, because my menu doesn't have anything like that, just "Adaptive Drills"
