Hello Everyone!

I need some help regarding my GPA. I have spoke with some LSAC employees and still feel a bit confused. In regards to classes that have been noted with academic forgiveness, what is the actual process for it not to count towards your lsat gpa? If the class and grade shows on transcript but is noted as AF(academic forgiveness) is it excluded?

Second, are all non level college courses excluded from GPA?

Lastly, are all DR(Dropped), N, NC, W, WS, etc. excluded from GPA calculation as well?

Sorry for any misconfusion, I'm just trying to figure out so I know the proper time to apply with a strong GPA to law school

Thank you all very much.

Pro-tip from the academics that teach people how to learn best (not just my own). It’s called “Spaced Repetition.”

The idea is straightforward: You learn something best when you have to remember it.

So what does this look like in practice? You do some learning now, pause, then come back and do some more later. Most of us do something similar, but we take a more difficult approach. It’s easy to think that we should finish an entire lesson, take really good notes, and promise ourselves that we’ll study those notes later. These are still good practices, but there’s a way to make it more effective.

Just leave one or two lessons incomplete and finish them later. Then you’re forced to remember all that stuff at a later date.

For instance, I’m going through the CC in order, but I’ve left two or three problems in the grammar section incomplete. I’ll finish those next week. This way, I’m forced to go back and remember (and implement) what I previously studied. This doesn’t mean I can’t or won’t review my notes anymore, just that I’m creating a system where I have to space out the learning process and force myself to practice recall.

TL;DR Recommendation: Leave 1-2 lessons incomplete in each section to force yourself to practice Spaced Repetition.

It makes the lessons shorter in a meaningful way; allows you to skip back-and-forth while still completing sections in order; and break apart the learning process so you’re giving your brain time to internalize what you learn.

If you've drilled a problem multiple times, you can hover over the recycling icon on the "review results" page and see what answer you chose on each take. This is helpful, but it'd be better if it also displayed how long you spent on that question for every take. That way, I'd be able to finely track timing improvements on specific questions while, say, foolproofing a logic game. Thank you!

According to 7sage's automatic study schedule, I am to take 6 PTs a week starting next week.

Is taking this many PTs optimum? Or should I space them as 3-4 per week.

Also, how do I add drills into the schedule?

Im taking the Oct'23 LSAT.

Thanks.

Hey everyone! Im looking for an LSAT BR study buddy! Im looking to take the Lsat this October but am honestly going to study until i'm PT'ing in the 170s! Im currently on PT 57 so am looking for someone around a similar PT so we can work through the remaining 36 tests together. Im in the mid to upper 150s on timed but usually 168-170 BR. I also work full time so want someone on a similar schedule.

What's the wisdom about drinking coffee before lsat?

How do coffee-addicts adjust to lsat?

I've had severe coffee withdrawl for the last 2-3 days (cramps, nausea, fogginess) when tried in the past.

Hello all,

After receiving consecutively poor scores on PT in 2020 I decided to change my approach to this test by going through the CC first before PTing again. I initially was doing just LG but I realized midway through that that I actually need help with everything and decided to go through the entire CC from the first lesson. I work as a paralegal full-time and sometimes I can only devote 1 hour a day to studying. I am wondering if this is the best use of time. Let me know what you guys think.

If one wants to withdraw from Aug lsat, can one do so?

if so, by when and would it show as "withdrawal" on scoresheet and does it affect number of takes available?

In the paper days one could withdraw till the night before the test without affecting number of takes.

I forgot about the ProctorU scheduling email this week due to various events.

Just found that no good slots available for the August test on Saturday.

I was trying to find something around noon on Saturday, Pacific zone.

Anyone in the same boat? Do slots open that one can reschedule? Or am I stuck with odd hours?

I scored a 177 on a PT after being around the 160s for a while, but even after my spike I have gotten back down to 165 ish range on my last two PT. Drop your thoughts below!

7Sage needs to get a LawHub test result import feature. Another site I use, adeptLR, seems to be a much smaller company than 7Sage and they have that feature. Maybe 7Sage already has that, but I am missing where to find it. If someone knows please let me know. I want to take my PT's on LawHub so it fully mimics the real LSAT, but it is such a pain to have to manually import all answers to utilize analytics on 7Sage.

Hello! When I test my requirements for proctor u it is saying that it cannot get any information on my cpu, ram or internet leading me to fail on all of the related tests. I used both and firefox while trying to remove all of the browser restriction on the site. I am running a Dell laptop with an intel cpu. Anyone had this issue or know what I should do?

I absolutely love this feature. It motivates me so much when it tells me that I will get a certain percentage wrong, and then I actually do! Ahhh!

One thing, though, is that I wish we can choose to restrict newer PT questions. This would be much desired

Other than that, I think it is one of the best study tools ever. What do you guys think?

I have just been trying to take timed sections and not the whole test, is there a way to do this without starting a full test?

Is anyone else having this issue? I can create a drill or choose a preptest but then no test or drill appears

Hi, I am a Canadian LSAT taker and have taken 2 times before, (159, 162). I want an increase in my score and want to try again before I apply for Canadian Schools (UVIC, U Ottawa, etc.) I am debating between September and October LSATS because I want to apply but do not want a very late admission, but I do want as much time for the best success.

Any advice?

Hi everyone, I have a weird question. But I’m sure all of us had taken many prep tests to help us prepare for the actual test. But I’m wondering if all these prep tests would “repeat” on the actual test meaning; the same question and answers. Or do they provide a separate and different test?

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?

Is there a way to see how long it takes for me to finish an entire game set instead of per question? This would be helpful for LG and RC!

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?
