I have been taking PrepTests from earliest to latest and have been steadily improving, with my highest being a 164 and hovering around the 162 area. But when I took PrepTest 90, I felt amazing and was flying through the questions much faster and with more ease than I usually do. I ended up getting a 168. I checked and saw that PrepTests 90-92 were based on the first LSAT Flex in May 2020. How do these PrepTests compare with the current online LSAT? Are they around the same difficulty? I am taking the upcoming June LSAT. Thank you.

I cannot devote full-time to the taking of LSAT because I need to go out and work. Usually, I get 4-6 hours of studying time per day. I am wondering if any of you might be able to take a look at my study plan and provide any feedback.

Day 1: Take a new PT + Review 1 old LG section

Day 2: Blind review the new PT + Review 1 old LG section

Day 3: Create a wrong answer journal for LR and RC for the new PT + Review 1 old LG section

Day 4: Categorize the LR question stems for the new PT + Review 1 old LG section

Day 5: Foolproof the LG section for the new PT + Review 1 old LG section

Any thoughts?

Hello everyone!

I applied for Fall 2022 but did not get into my top choices so I'm reapplying.

Here's my numbers,

Untimed:

LG: usually -2 or under

LR: usually -4 or under

RC: RC varies pretty wildly, usually ranges from -4 to -10

Timed:

LG: around -4

LR: around -8

RC: usually around -10

This tells me that I could score anywhere from 160 to 170ish (My real score is around 160 but goal is to hit 170+)

*One caveat is that these estimates are based on individual sections of different PTs. So it does not take into account how some sections might be easier than others for a specific test (I.e., they are not representative of actual tests). The numbers can be skewed if I happened to use hard RC LR LG when I study and vice versa.

I don't think I can improve a meaningful amount on RC, and I'm signed up for August LSAT.

I realize that the best way to get the most accurate score is to get an average of fresh PTs in the late 80s and early 90s which I have not done so far. I plan to do this about a month before the real test.

I'm tempted to take a fresh PT untimed to see my full potential, I would estimate my score to be anywhere from high 160s to mid 170s.

Should I push back the exam? Is 3 months enough time to improve from averaging 160 to averaging 170?

I study about 2-3 hours a day almost every day.

Any advice will be much appreciated! :)

hello guys,

i am looking at the lsat score conversion calculator that is provided on the home page of 7 sage. What is confusing me is this: when i put the number of questions that I'm allowed to get wrong in order to calculate what it takes to get the score i want, should I put the number of wrong questions on the entire 100 questions of the test or only on the 3 graded sections which make up roughly 75 questions? i ask this because if lets say I make 20 mistakes in 100 questions, but 15 in the 75 questions, I am not sure which one to put in the conversion calculator. When I put 15, I obviously get a better score, but im not sure if this number is inflated because it is assuming a lower group of questions per test then the calculator intends for me to assume.

I would appreciate your help as it would allow me to see how close to my goal I really am!

So I took the June 2007 test before doing much of the material. I missed one question in logical reasoning and two in reading comprehension (and bombed the logic games). Obviously I'm focusing my prep on the logic games right now. But should I feel secure in my ability with the logical reasoning+reading comprehension? Could that one test be a fluke? How much prep should I do with those two sections? I'm aiming for an excellent score; I'd like to go to a top law school.

Thanks!

I am following the 7sage syllabus but I am confused on when I am supposed to start taking the practice tests. Do I just go through with all of the syllabus and then start using them for drilling? or am I supposed to be taking one every week even if I have not learned every subject?

I was doing great with this course so far. However, when i got to memorizing the invalid and valid forms. I got really confused.

First of, we dont have any sample LSAT questions where this could be applied.

I still dont understand, how is this useful in the actual LSAT? Is it actually worth taking hours to memorize??

Hello, I recently took my first LSAT diagnostic. I took the June 2007 PrepTest (timed, under test like conditions), scoring a 162. I missed 5 on LG (-2 that I didn't finish, -3 incorrect), 9 on the two LR sections combined (was rushing toward the end, but I actually got the easier questions wrong more often than the harder ones), and 4 on the RC (again, tended to get easier questions wrong more than the hardest ones).

I've started studying with 7Sage, aiming for 15-20 hours a week for 12 weeks with at least 9-10 more timed practice tests. How much score improvement is reasonable to expect in this case? What are some of the strategies I can use to ensure that I'm maximizing my increase and not just hovering around this diagnostic score? Planning on taking the September administration. Thanks!

I am a Month to Month User. I was working on the Assumptions & Weakening Questions Module of the Syllabus. I went to check how many videos i have left to review, but I noticed that it says I completed 77% of the core curriculum.... Which is odd, considering that my progress was just about 2% half an hour ago. I then realized that Almost all of the lessons in the Syllabus was locked and I need to upgrade to view them. I already pay about $69 a month. Is there a way to fix this?? I need help please!!

Anyone else just working on problem sets and everything got locked as if subscription wasn't paid. My last payment was end of May and it should last until June 21st. I'm really upset right now because I need to study, so why am I getting locked out of something I paid for?

Hey everyone! I joined 7Sage in 2016 and it's been a long, long journey, but I just graduated law school! Having been through the whole thing at this point, I thought I might have some insights people would be interested in. So, I'm going to open up a Zoom session and answer anything y'all want to ask. So bring your questions or just come and lurk. We can talk LSAT, law school, life, whatever y'all want.

Thanks to everyone who came out! Really great questions, and I hope people were able to take away something valuable. And if anyone with pressing questions wasn't able to make it, I'd be happy to answer questions in the comments, so ask away!
