So, starting January 17 to take the June test, requires over 50 hours a week of study. That's over 5 months, and the schedule requires 50 hours a week?! That can't be right. I can do 20-30 hours a week, so how do I adjust this in my schedule?

Hello. I believe I will be done with the course by next week. My lsat is for February 2020. I know I will not be able to take all 99 prep tests before then but was wondering if I should go in order from prep test 1-15 lets say or start at prep test 75 and go from there?

Hi all. I know that there will be 4 sections on the real LSAT, with 3 being scored and 1 being experimental. However, the default option for taking prep tests gives you 4 scored versions. Would you guys recommend taking the flex test (which would perhaps lead to a more accurate score?) or taking the regular version to more accurately simulate the endurance required for the real test? I am leaning towards the latter option, but I know LR is my strong suit, and I don't want to give myself false confidence with the benefit of a higher % of my total score coming from LR. Thank you!

I have one LOR already submitted, and I'm waiting on a second one. They are both professional. The one that is submitted is from my boss at a job I had while going to school. The second is from an attorney coworker I had at my most recent job.

I am confident that the first LOR speaks very highly of me and my abilities. That guy thinks I walk on water.

I am less confident in the second LOR. He knows me, and I worked with him every day. He is a good guy, but he is really dragging his feet on this thing. He agreed to do it back in November, I contacted him about it at the beginning of this month and he again agreed to have it done as soon as possible. He hasn't replied to my emails since then.

Should I just go ahead and submit my applications and add his LOR later if/when it happens? Should I ask someone else?

What does everyone think?

Took the Jan LSAT and was going -0 on games for the past 5 PTs!

Having major anxiety waiting for my score, and I figured helping someone else out could help me with my own practice incase my journey isn't over lol.

If interested, message with the following: your name, average on each section, and what time zone you're in! :)

I'm using the schedule, marking each section as I move through it. I glanced ahead and only see one PT, the June 2007 test. But then I don't see anymore up to the actual test on March 12th. That can't be right, right? Will there be more PT's I'm just not seeing in the Syllabus?

This is question is for anyone that know the 7sage website. I want to take timed sections without going into the full PTs or having a section done without having to submit the whole test. Is it possible to do that or do I just have to use the Problem sets creator? Also I noticed that the problem sets are also timed. Can I do them untimed the first time around or is the untimed option only for BR? I want to use the analytics for the specific questions without having to do a timed section. Its hard to do that when I run out of time but I still have questions left to answer.

please share any information.

Hey you guys,

I've seen some questions and answers regarding whether LSAT Flex can be taken on full-screen.

I was not able to find any answers on the other way around.

I don't have a laptop, but instead I have an 27inch iMac. My screen is too huge to have my LSAT page full-screen.

It would just be a nightmare having to move my mouse back and forth just to click on the next button.

For those of you kind people who have an experience with taking LSAT Flex (or however you call it now - at home LSATs with your own cpts), were you able to adjust the screen size to your preference?

Thanks for the help. I might have to find some ways to rent a laptop if the above is not the case :/

Hi I was writing my test this morning. This was my third time writing my test and the first time writing the test the proctor asked me where my phone was and I said outside and he said to go get it and put it in the room (so thats what I thought it had to be). Today, my alarm went off (I know I should've turned off my phone so this was my fault), I asked the proctor if I could go turn it off (by voice), she said yes but show me your room after (by text). I did. I told her where my phone was (Across the room), and performed a room scan twice (showed her my laptop through the mirror). 2 min later someone came in and said you weren't allowed to do that and terminated the test. I was confused because the first proctor said yes turn off your alarm, and so I did. I called LSAC and filed a complaint.

What do you think will happen?

Hey you guys,

My test is tomorrow (freaking out) and I've been on reddit... I've seen people talk about using ctrl/f or command f for the reading comprehension section... does anyone know if this is allowed? I want to make sure it's okay for me to do during the test because it'll def make things quicker!!

Also, heads up for anyone who needs this: you can use ear plugs during your test! esp if you live in a noisy apartment :)

I've taken the LSAT a couple of times. One thing I have not done before this upcoming test is spend some time on the LSAC Lawhub portal, even if you're just running through the June 07 exam. It's worth doing, as it is one less new experience to navigate. I really think it's worth something of value for the day you sit. Both times I've taken the LSAT without familiarizing myself with the LSAC test environment, I've felt slightly disoriented at the beginning of the test.

I really really don’t want to because I’ve taken the lsat four times already. I went from a 153 to a 161 but I got waitlisted at my top choice and a safety and I’m starting to really worry about all my other apps? I know I can improve at least 3-4 points for sure but is it worth it?

Title says it all lol. I sit tomorrow and had a nightmare about logic games last night, and the night before dreamt I ran out of time.

Ironically, logic games is my best section and I’m not nearly as nervous as I have been in past LSAT administrations, but could seriously do without these pesky nightmares on LSAT eve. 😇

With the January test coming up this weekend I just wanted to throw something out there to give us hope. I was giving up hope but my brother and partner told me something that I'd like to share with you guys. "as long as you keep your mind in the right place you can do this, you have come too far to give up now, manifest that shit and it will happen!" Lets manifest this shit, the LSAT is hard as hell but we got this! Never give up, don't lose hope. I saw this on quote on Instagram a few days ago, "you don't need to get into EVERY law school to become a lawyer. All it takes is ONE."

We got this guys!!

Alright, 7Sage Fam.

A little backstory: I cannot wrap my head around the logic of reasoning or grouping games. I've been at it for two years now, and I've tried anything and everything to improve my score WHICH JUST WONT BUDGE. And its okay. I've told myself, its not about giving up because this test is going to dictate the future but about accepting who it is I am, where it is I am at in life, and where it is I will go. CUE ANXIETY

YES. I AM LOSING MY MIND. But i've always been losing it, and I think its fine to be a little crazy. That's what makes you unique. Remember that you are more than a three digit number that sits between 120 and 180. To those that are in the 140s and 150s, keep at it. Not to say your score will go up or down, but this is to say you should keep in mind the several components that are on the law school application. Make yourself stand out. As a student with a bachelors and two masters degrees, applying to law school with working experience makes me feel I am more than a number. Remind yourself of this every morning that you are just the same. A number does not define you but your experience, your background , your will to succeed in being a lawyer for the community around you does.

This is for those that feel they are losing hope. My message to you is simple: DONT LOSE HOPE. As a die hard Lakers fan, I always ask myself, what would Kobe do? If I can keep at this stupid ass test, and still fight for my right to be admitted during my first law school admissions cycle this year, then so can you. Keep pushing. Life is beautiful and it has more in store for you than you (and I) could ever imagine.

For those of you scoring your desired goals, congratulations! Y'all make me proud. I am happy for you. Hopefully one day, when all of us former 7Sagers are meeting in a courtroom, we can talk about the discussion threads we met and rallied each other on. You are all a part of my inspiration to keep pushing and striving, but staying unique to me. I respect your ability to nail this test, its hard as fuck.

Good luck to the rest of you that are taking the test this coming weekend. Grind it out through Thursday, go get some ice cream Friday, and on Saturday, bring your A Game. As King Leonidus (played by Gerard Butler) says in '300', "Remember this day forever, for it will belong to YOU for all time." And it will. You will make it to break the game. Lets fucking do this shit.

I'm the sort of person who did pretty well in school. I usually only get a few questions wrong on most tests, and I'll review those and improve. However, the LSAT is different. I'm getting around 40 questions wrong. How do you guys not get overwhelmed/discouraged?

Hi,

I have started the 7Sage Core Curriculum back in June and completed it at the end of December. It took me a while to finish the CC because I created a wrong answer journal for all LR and RC questions. Also, as JY has instructed, I practiced all LG questions in the CC until I can get every question correct with the given amount of time. I took the practice test #1 a week ago. My timed score came out as 148 and blind review score came out as 162. Here is the breakdown:

RC -6

LG -19

LR -9

LR -15

I definitely know that I can improve, but I am just wondering how everyone scored on their first timed test. Considering that I have scored 162 on the blind review, I strongly believe I can get the blind review score up until 175+.

Please share how your first practice test experience was.
