Hey everyone,

So I have been seriously considering some sort of sleep aid to help me form the habit of going to bed at an earlier time. The problem is I like to fight my sleep. Like I really fight sleep and I could be super tired.... So I have been thinking of trying out ZZZquill to see if that might help me just fall asleep faster. Have anyone of you tried it? Would love to know what you guys think.

Also, I want to give it up as soon as I feel like my habit of going to bed early has been formed. So I need it to be non-addictive. It says on the bottle it is but I do want to confirm that.

I want to go from this:

Modern option

Im confused as to what the difference between the pt's before 2020 and the modern option is. How should we be taking the ones before 2020, with the stimulate modern option or all 4 sections? and. How are the before 2020 ones scored? are all 4 sections scored?

Help crack 160

Hello everyone. So for context, I’m not looking to go to a T14 so a 160 is pretty much what I need to get into my picks for law schools. Even a 161/162 would be amazing for me. Unfortunately, I can’t seem to crack this magic number. I usually score in the high 150s with few outliers but have never made it past 159 despite always scoring in the 160s upon BR and in the very high 160s nearing 170 as of more recently.

I’ll admit I don’t have LG down to -0. I’ll usually score around -5 or -8 due to timing but then get -0 on BR. LR and RC is where the gamble comes in. I’ll always either do like -6 or -7 on RC but then -10 on LR or I’ll go -6 on LR but -11 on RC. LG is about the same every single PT. The most frustrating part for me is my inconsistency on LR. Like I could do a drill on just weakening questions and do well but then on my most recent PT, 3 out of the 9 questions I got wrong were all weakening questions. It’s seriously frustrating knowing that had I gotten those 3 weakening questions correct my score would have gone from a 159 to a 162. 🥲

No matter what I do I can’t seem to crack that magical 160 (maybe not so magical for others lol). With only days left until my October LSAT, should I just fully focus on LG at this point to hopefully get it below -5?

Coffee or Tea?

Hello everyone! Ok so I enjoy drinking coffee however I noticed I crash hard when I'm coming down later in the day. I've tired drinking matcha tea however it's not as strong as coffee and I'm not able to focus as much. The problems I'm having with coffee is I believe it affects my sleep. I drink literally one cup at 9am and for some reason my mind is constantly racing. at night. In other words I'm not getting REM sleep. Does anyone else have problems with caffeine? I'm considering just quitting coffee cold turkey and only drinking matcha from now on. WHAT DO I DO?!?!?!?!?

weird PT78

I haven't heard anybody talking abt this, but I recently finished pt78 and found several questions in this pt to be kind of atypical of lsat questions. They seem to rely more heavily on you making some assumptions abt unstated things, sometimes to an extent I would usually consider very risky to do in LSAT tests. Does anybody feel that? Have you ever encountered a particular PT that runs counter to your experiences with LSAT?

For anyone interested in a LSAT Study group for either the November or January dates, we are going to be meeting on Thursday 10/13 at 7pm EST to discuss scheduling. So far it seems as if evening meetings are preferable. Message me for the zoom link if interested

Hi all,

I know this is a common phenomenon, that many score lower than their PT average on test day. I was wondering if anyone could provide advice my specific situation since I'm a bit demotivated.

I'm someone who didn't really need to study for RC or LR due to my background as a philosophy student, and usually manage -0 to -3 on those. I do struggle on LG, often having to guess the last few questions. Another thing is that I have only taken 3-section preptests. Last time I stopped PTing (171) one week before the real test (166).

I haven't studied since taking September, but I'm registered for October, my last chance. How should I proceed in the last 17 days until Oct? Just drill logic games, or try the 4-section tests on LSAC? How would you all approach this? I feel like I need to switch something up to avoid this happening again.

Hi everyone, I was approved for +50% time today and just wanted to ask about some strategies to best leverage this extra time.

I was already not horrible in terms of pacing, but I was missing questions bc I was misreading/ rushing questions etc.

My intital impression of the best way to leverage this extra time would be to literally blind review during the actual exam; finish the section in ~35 minutes and then go back and review the answers I’m not 100% confident with. This is also a godsend for diagraming during LG, though I haven’t started studying LG. Same with RC my impression is that I should use the time to read the passages more critically, etc.

If anyone has any additional general of section-specific advice, I’d greatly appreciate it!

Hi everyone,

This is my 2nd week of studying for the February test and I just feel like nothing is clicking. Once it gets a bit complicated, my brain just goes haywire. I've taken a diagnostic test and got 141 :( But the thing is...my brain is telling me this test shouldn't be hard to understand 😪

I'm going through sage's syllabus and have done some drills but I am just overwhelmed by everything that is offered and do not know what works and doesn't work. I would watch the explanation videos and understand it but then it goes out the field once I start practicing on my own. I work full time so I try to study at least 2-3 hours for at least 6 days of the week to prevent burnout but I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Do any of you have tips for me? Please help. I've considered getting a 7sage tutor but don't know if that will help if I've only been studying for 1 full week.

Hi everyone! After hitting 170-176 on a few PTs, I saw my scores drop back down to high-mid 160s. Last Saturday, I got 5 and 6 wrong on LR when I usually only get 1-3 wrong! A lot of the questions I missed were 1-2 star questions I usually never miss. I have a feeling I'm getting too much in my own head, and I was wondering if anyone has advice on how to deal with this. I am taking the October LSAT and I'm trying really hard not to freak out!

Hi all, so I noticed that some PTs are labeled with letters (PTB, PTC, PTC2). Is there anything special about these practice tests, such as experimental sections, or questions that were tossed out on them? Just curious why these PTs were labeled with letters instead of being regularly numbered like the other PTs. Are they good tests to use to gauge my scores?

I have tried linking my 7sage account to my lsac prep plus account and I am being told by my lsac account that "This coach is already assigned to this user". I don't get it and I don't understand why my LSAC prep plus account will not be linked to my 7sage account.
