I've heard from roughly everybody who has ever used the study scheduler that they want more customization—but how, and why? Start with the problem you are trying to solve—e.g., "I get behind schedule," or "I don't want to do the PT that the study scheduler picked for me because…" If possible, explain why the current functionality (e.g. changing your plan type or end date in study plan settings) doesn't cut it. Then suggest a solution.

Help us make it better for you!

Hi! I am beginning to work on my PS and I really want some feedback about how it reads to someone else? I prefer someone who is also a splitter and willing to be very honest. I am happy to offer the same. My PS is still very much in draft mode but I want to see if I am going in a good direction and feel like discussing our PS more in general can really lead to somewhere worthwhile for both parties!

Not sure what to make of it lol

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know how a CGPA is rounded? By all calculations my GPA is a 3.945. From what I have heard, they round to the nearest .01 which is a 3.95, but in LSAC it is reported as a 3.94. Can someone explain this, and if not is it worth contacting LSAC about it?

-Thanks!

Hello, I am signed up for the Total Prep Intensive course, and my first class is Monday evening, but I have a few questions about it.

1. Is the homework listed alongside the Monday class (including the diagnostic test) supposed to be completed prior to the first class on Monday, or should I wait to do it after the first class?

2. Will classes be recorded and available to watch after in case we have to miss a class for some reason?

Just saw an update in the drill tags.

Is there a way to revert back to the old order of the drill tags?

I really liked how in the old version, the question types were separate from the other tags. This one is harder to see, navigate, and select by question type.

I accidentally submitted my section when I was on the last question of an RC section and I knew the correct answer while taking it. I want to know if I can edit my answers afterwards so that my analytics better reflect my actual work.

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I need a bit of study advice. I just recently finished up the core, LR, and RC portions of my study plan and I'm now on my first practice block. However, I'm currently about 1.5 weeks behind where I should be. I'm planning on taking the test in August and I'm wondering if I should try to do 2 days on my study plan per day in order to catch up.

My only concern is that I might be sacrificing quality for quantity by doing this. However, I can't shake the feeling that I'm just not getting enough practice to achieve my goal score in August and that time is running out.

Please give your thoughts.

Hi all, I've been studying for the past few months and have been seeing no progress. I am placing as much emphasis as I can on blind review now and then watching lessons on the issues that I see that I am struggling with. I'm worried I am not doing enough drills to learn enough. For context, I work full time and can maybe devote 2.5 hours a day, six times a week. What is a realistic amount of drills that I should be completing, or would that depend more on my understanding of the material?

Hi,

Maybe it's just me but at first I started drilling/taking PTs with the new testing interface (post August) and it was working fine but recently I've been unable to select any answer choices. Original interface works. I'm using Safari on a Macbook. Just wanted to flag in case this is helpful to others.

Any other long-term paralegals here? I'm super curious to know how many other people are in the same boat as me.

I'm a senior paralegal, and I've been working in estate planning and probate for about 13 years now. I finally got tired of (1) getting paid like a paralegal to do the work of a junior associate, and (2) billing at a rate of $100 less than the baby associates I'm teaching about this field of law, whose drafts I review, and whose cases I supervise (among other things) for no reason other than optics.

Besides, I want to be able to sign my own dang pleadings and say "I advise that you do XYZ" to clients instead of "[attorney's name] advises that you do XYZ" (even if I'm the one who suggested it to the attorney in the first place).

I spent my entire career saying I'd never go to law school, and yet here we are lol

If you're a paralegal of 10+ years applying to law school, what are your reasons for doing so?

This is more of a "can I jump from low 150s to like a 160+" question and whether it's possible to achieve by the August exam. I am ready to give it my all. Would appreciate it if anyone can speak from their experiences and let me know how plausible this dream of mine is!

(I took it in April officially, studied consistently for 3 and a half months. Had to take an involuntary break between April and basically now, urgently need to get back on the grind for August)

I been going to the lessons library and expend lessons to find the flagged ones. Is there an easier way?

Do you like PrepTest equivalent? Do you find it useful? Please let me know in the comments.

To get ahead of questions:

How does PrepTest Equivalent work?

Rather than just scaling up your wrong answers, we use the difficulty of each specific question (calibrated on years of 7Sage data) to find the 120–180 score that best explains which ones you got right and wrong. (This is a form of Item Response Theory, the method behind standardized-test scoring).

How accurate is it?

It's reliable for full sections, but fuzzier for drills. The shorter the drill, the rougher the estimate.

Will the updated Interface have a highlight of where to look for a specific phrase from the question stem?

I’m an internationally educated applicant applying to JD program (not an LLM because I also earned a bachelor’s degree in the United States).

LSAC is requiring me to submit my foreign university transcripts for evaluation through its own international credential process.

My situation is that I already had my foreign credentials evaluated by WES several years ago when I was applying to a U.S. university.

However, LSAC now does not accept WES evaluations and requires original transcripts sent according to its own procedures.

The problem is that my former medical university in Georgia (the country) will issue official transcripts and supporting documents, but they do not mail documents directly to third parties.

LSAC, on the other hand, appears to require the institution itself to send the documents in a sealed envelope.

Has anyone dealt with a similar situation involving a university in Eastern Europe or another country where schools do not directly mail records?

Would LSAC accept documents if the university prepared and sealed them, and I arranged courier pickup from the university? Alternatively, are there any other options when the institution will issue the documents but will not handle the mailing process itself?

Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Hey 7Sagers,

Long-time lurker here. I've been studying for the LSAT and, like most of you, I kept getting wrecked by the same handful of LR traps.... necessary vs sufficient mix-ups, eliminating the right answer too early, falling for the "too strong" trap on Strengthen questions. JY's stuff has been a huge help, but I noticed my actual review process was the weak link, not the lessons. Most videos I would just blank out... my fault!

I was keeping a wrong-answer journal in a Google Doc and it was a disaster. Stuff I logged in February might as well have not existed. I never went back. So I built a little web app for myself to make the review part less painful.

What it does:

• Snap a photo of a question (or paste it in) and it parses the stimulus, stem, and choices

• You tag why you missed it — assumption swap, misread stem, eliminated the right answer, etc.

• Over time it surfaces patterns: "you've missed 9 Necessary Assumption questions this month, 7 of them because you picked an answer that was too strong"

• Drill mode re-serves your weak spots so the misses actually stick

It's not meant to replace the Core Curriculum or BR — it's the journaling layer on top of whatever prep you're already doing. Think of it as a smarter version of the wrong-answer spreadsheet a lot of people on here already keep.

It's completely free. No paywall, no premium tier, just an email so it saves to an account. I'm a current LSAT student, not a company. I built it because I needed it, and figured I'd share since a few study partners liked it.

There's a demo you can poke at without signing up if that makes you feel better lol.

If you try it, I'd genuinely love feedback... what's broken, what's missing, what would actually make it useful for how you review. There's a Feedback tab right in the sidebar. Roast it, I can take it.

Good luck to everyone sitting in the next few admin cycles 🙏 We need it!

UPDATE - I can't keep responding to everyone.... here is the link haha

Fair warning, there are a lot more people using it than expected, so if it does work at first, refresh the page, and if it still doesn't work, please DM me! I will try and fix the code.

Hi everyone.

Please help me understand why we do blind review. I have tried to do them a few times and if I remember correctly, the questions were circled red that I had answered correctly. So are we supposed to be baited into choosing a wrong answer after choosing the right one initially? Please let me know the purpose and how they are supposed to work. Thank you.

Not sure if this is a bug, but the chat "header" disappears when scrolling down to the most recent chat. I am having to scroll back up to go click on "Back to chats".

Here's a screenshot from my message with AI Coach and as you can see the header for the chat is gone. I can't go back to my "Your Chats" section with all chats available, unless I scroll up to the very top.

I noticed this this morning when I was going through my chats, so I think it's a bug?

The AI coach is sick!

You guys (everyone asking) are welcome haha

📢 📢 ADMIN NOTE: Our AI Coach is currently in beta, and we've reached capacity for adding new users at this time. We'll continue rolling it out to more students over the coming weeks, so stay tuned for updates!

holla at your boy ----> /gon keep playing eye tag

I have noticed that in the live classes, we don't really solve questions from the newer PTs which are more representative of the current test. I think it would be an excellent idea to have live classes where the teachers go over the newer questions as well because I feel like there's a difference between questions from PT150+ vs PTs from like the 100-140 range. The older questions are more cookie cutter, less tricky, and have more obvious patterns whereas the questions from the newest PTs are more convoluted and harder to comprehend so I would love to see live classes where the teachers break down those questions for us as well.

Feel free to let me know if I'm missing something. Out of the many live classes I attended, I don't think I have ever seen the teachers give us a question from PT 150+ which is why I wanted to propose this idea. If the reason for not including those is because y'all don't want people who still haven't solved those PTs to be exposed to them via live classes, I get it. Maybe the class labels can say something like "Disclaimer: this class will contain questions from the newest PTs (150+)." I hope this makes sense!
