Self-paced
Is it really worth it? I feel like it's so long and very time consuming but I have heard doing the curriculum can really help raise your score. I need advice on how to properly use 7sage, I had a tutor and I liked the way all my days were planned out? Anyway have a schedule they can share.

What do I personally is do one section per day five days per week. MWF is RC, T/Th is LR. I warm up by reading the info from the modules, and do a timed section and review mistakes each day.
I feel like practice before you're ready, is good to have in addition to studying the modules. As well, I jumped into LR and RC sections, looking at RC module on RC day, LR on LR day, and refer back to foundations when necessary. On practice timed sections I am getting around 170. I find that after practicing a while and reviewing the foundations after the fact, its easier for me to see how to USE the info on the grammer for RC, or the intersecting sets for specific types of questions I've actually seen in LR.
Look, it's up to you. Everyone learns differently. But if you know for you that if you force yourself to go through all the foundations first it will hurt your motivation, do not force yourself to do it. Consistent practice over days, weeks and months has a foundation in you self-managing as an adult to keep you motivation at a reasonable level. And you probably won't retain the foundations enough to be able to apply them if its month after the fact.
There is no "proper" way, theres a way the company recommends, but any practice is better than no practice, and doing real questions your learning can be improved through the theory, but the theory alone will not improve your score alone.
Personally my system is really working for me. I'm up to an about (estimated) 170 per section in both LR and RC in about 20 days. But everyone's brain works different. YOu're paying for the tool, you decide how to use it
YES
I initially ignored the core curriculum b/c I also thought it was long and time consuming but I took a chance on hearing others say it was worth it and now I also really think it was worth it.
