Lawhub has 2 free PTs (71 and 73) and khanacademy.com has ~6 free computer-based LSAT tests.

But the layout of LR/LG/RC sections in Lawhub is very different than khanacademy PT, e.g. the font, eliminate AC etc.

Which layout is the actual/real LSAT administration would appear on the computer?

Is the real one "exactly" the same as Lawhub?

IDK the process/forum etiquette for feature requests, so apologies if this is not the right venue/classification.

Working on getting my time down for boards, would love a way to pick problems based on how overtime I was. I tend to mismanage time and get correct answers after spending too much time on them. This is something to fix more generally, but would still like to be able to practice to address this skill.

RN I have a workaround by looking at my question table analytics and manually selecting problems, but it would be nice to have it as a feature!

Hi,

I can't see the explanation videos for LR when I create my own problem sets. The only option I get is discuss under the explanation tab. I know 7Sage had explanation videos for LR but I can't see them anymore. Please help!!

I am trying to decide who would be better for my 3rd LOR. I already have two professors. Right now I am stuck between a college coach and an attorney who I've worked for this summer but do not know as well. Any advice?

Hey 7sage! Consistent in the mid 170s and trying to cement my mastery- I've found that tutoring others helps. I’ve tutored people scoring the 150s and 160s. if you would like some tutoring (or just working together, doesn’t have to be “tutoring”) to work through tough LR q's and tough RC passages, or LG, i'd be love to work together! Looking to pair up with 2-3 people, please message me your current PT average and what sections you’d like to work on if interested : )

I purchased the RC Live intensive course with Nick Place by following the link that was sent to me. I'm a little concerned if I might have purchased the wrong thing because the page that it brought me to after the purchase was about the admission course. How can I confirm if I purchased the right course?

I have taken the LSAT before, but decided to retake. I was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis since last taking it. My symptoms are pretty bad (sudden onset, didn't have these issues when I first took the test). Will the fact that I took the test before without accommodation affect my chances of getting an accommodation this time around?

Just finished the LR part of the core curric. Currently studying about 2hrs+ every day, taking in August and September. Have been studying since early May.

My goal is 170+ (shocker).

Right now my LR is around -5 reg to -3 BR

LG is around -3 reg to -0 BR consistently

RC anywhere from -8 to -2 reg to -4 to -2 BR.

Should I just drill the logic games down, or focus on RC and keep just improving LG with practice tests. Maybe study both at once?

Any advice (and prayers) appreciated.

I usually simulate pts the same way I would take he real LSAT but sometimes it is hard to find time to spend the time to take a full test. Is it beneficial to break it down into sections or is not worth the time?

Hi guys,

I am in a bit of a pickle. For whatever reason, I cannot study LSAT anymore. I can't focus, and I feel like studying is torture.

I took a week break (by break I mean that I was studying a lot less, I think I studied 2/7 days for 2 hours a day). I still am having an incredibly hard time.

Prior to this, and probably the reason for my burnout, I was studying 3-5 hours a day after working. I would also have my LSAT Prep class twice a week, and once a week I would take an exam. I did this for 2.5 months straight with a few days of rest here and there.

Do you guys have any tips for how I can get my motivation back? Or any words of reassurance? I am trying my hardest, but I cannot be productive anymore. It is really worrying me, as I feel behind. My first LSAT is in August, and I want to take another one in December.

Thank you so much in advance!

Hello,

I'm relatively early on in my LSAT studies and I was wondering which 'Time Adjustment' should I be using?

I noticed with previous sections its given me "standard time" but recently with certain problem sets (ex. in the later MSS Problem Sets) the timing switched to infinite?

It seems weird to have the BR right after if we are getting unlimited time on the questions, is this a oversight? or should I set the timing myself to Target time/Standard time?

What's recommended by 7sage? #help or what have you all been using?

Best,

Leissosa

Hi all! I'm writing my first LSAT in August, and I was wondering when I should be expecting the email to sign up for Proctor U and schedule my exam time? I couldn't find any answers on the LSAC website, so I'm reaching out to you lovely people!

For some reason only some of my videos give me the option to change video playback speed - is anyone else noticing this?

Sometimes for an easier question video I'll watch it at a faster speed and when I go to the next question I want to slow the video down but it's stuck in the faster speed that I changed it to on the last video. And I've noticed only sometimes the playback speed adjuster function shows up and sometimes does not. Is there a pattern to this or something, like are there maybe certain types of videos that don't have that function that I'm not catching on? I'm having that problem right now and I've tried refreshing the page and no matter however much I try to hover on different parts of the video it's not showing. Not urgent problem but can get annoying.

Hi everyone,

I am an international student going into my junior year and I am hoping to go directly to law school after college. In October, I am starting a year-long law program at the faculty of law at Oxford. I hear that the program is very intensive and I am bit worried about how realistic it would be for me to do LSAT prep while there. I am very hard working and driven which has also made more prone to burn out just because I always try to do too much and overthink everything (as you will see from this post). I am afraid the same would happen for my LSAT and Oxford program so I am seeking advice on how to go about it.

I did a diagnostic test and I got 139 and my goal is in the range of 167-172 (I need about 30 points increase which is a lot I know). I am really bad at standardized tests but I know I can improve with practice. I also like the learning that comes with LSAT so I am motivated in that way. I am willing to take as much time and effort as possible to reach my target score even if that means taking time off after college. But I also can't help but want to go directly to law school.

I have been working at a T14 law school and a top law firm this summer which has been a great experience. The general advice I would often hear with the legal professionals and my colleagues is that we highly recommend taking time off after college but they would tell me that they don't think I need that. They would say I am already mature enough and have the experiences of a professional. I am a couple of years older than the typical college student. This is not to brag but to give a perspective, I also founded my NGO at age 16, managed grants projects with +100k dollars budget, and I have lived and worked internationally. At my college, I have loved the academics and studying but it has been harder to connect with the rest of the student body because it feels that we are at different stages of our lives. Even my professors would say that I am like a grad student to them and I have built great relationships with them.

Now all that to say is I am impatient about law school and becoming a lawyer and I think I am ready for it. But I am also very insecure about my LSAT and ability to improve within that time frame I have left (a year) given my intensive academic program. What are your thoughts? Am I being irrational and paranoid? Do you think my LSAT target score is realistic within that timeframe? Also, should I just let go of studying for LSAT at Oxford and instead focus on my program there and plan to apply to law school in the 2024 or 2025 cycle?

I have noticed these forums have been very helpful others so wanted to give it a try and be as transparent and vulnerable about my worries as possible.

Thank you everyone!

Hello,

I am having troubles with my lsat score not improving. However it is also not declining either which is good (I hope)

Looking for some advice from anyone who has overcome this problem. I plan on applying for law school this fall and would really like to overcome this ASAP.

Hi everyone! I'm Raphael and I'm one of the 99th-percentile tutors here at 7Sage. This coming month, I'm offering a group class to teach LSAT fundamentals. This class is perfect for those of you who are still working through core curriculum or those who, after finishing it, still feel like they want a bump on fundamentals and elements of timing.

Classes begin Thursday, August 4th, at 9pm and meet weekly at that time through October 10.

We have 16 spots, but they fill up fast. Join us here, and comment below if you have questions! https://classic.7sage.com/lsat-fundamental-piliero-august/

I recently completed the first PT in the curriculum (February 1997) and was very surprised to see I achieved a 166. Due to the age of this LSAT, is this score inflated compared to what my score would be on a modern version of the test? If I took the modern LSAT tomorrow, would I expect a similar score (of course ignoring nervousness and slightly changed question types)?

I also took the October 2002 PT and scored 162, but since this is also quite old, is this score also inflated?

Ive read the "how to understand your LSAT score" thing many times, but im still not sure if I completely understand, and perhaps this is where my confusion is coming from.

Thanks!

Hi all,

When using the Auto Builder in Drilling mode for LR, I selected "incorrect questions from PTs previously taken." Yet, it used two questions from a PT I have not previously taken. I have few clean PTs left and I'm skeptical to use it again if it will draw from those clean PTs. Any assistance or advice is greatly appreciated, thank you.
