Is there any available resource to compare how difficult PT-X's LG section with PT-Y's LG section as a whole?

E.g. for an average 170-scorer, how many approximate misses in PT-55 LG compared to PT-75 LG within 35 mins in strict test conditions.

This is not referring to how difficult an individual Game but only LG section as a whole.

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?

Heyyy,

I am planning on taking the October LSAT in the Middle East. Thing is, I have heard that the only available time slots are usually between 2 am and 5.30 am which is a major disadvantage. I can't imagine taking the LSAT during those times and doing well.

Any one have any experience with this? Also, how early will the time slots open up for booking...

I haven't paid for my test yet and wasn't sure if this will cause me to be late on choosing a time slot.

Thanks :)

for prep tests 1-35, is there a timeline as to when I should take those, or can I take it whenever I feel like I need to?

...here in the discussion forum as well as in the explanation video comments. That means the hard ones you don't wan't to answer. The ones from earlier PTs that don't have videos to check your understanding before posting. The ones about RC you don't want to do because you don't want to read the passage or maybe you're not even sure you understand it.

This is one of the highest value things you can do for your prep. There is no better way to learn and test your understanding of a concept than to try to teach it to someone else. You all should be pouncing on these questions as soon as you see them come up... like they shouldn't last 5 minutes going unanswered. It is beneficial for you, the person asking, and the community as a whole.

Be brave and push yourself. Seek to be proven wrong, don't avoid it. We improve the most at the threshold of failure.

Going through some PTs and PT 78-80 have misc. games. Are these making a come back and have they appeared in the latest LSATs?

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!

Hi everyone,

So I have a dilemma -- I graduated with my bachelor in July 2021. I am a non-traditional student (Finance major, started freshman year of college in 2011 and was on and off in school for about decade).

I recently decided I want to apply to law school (something I have been considering for a year or two now). Problem is, I have a low uGPA (according to LSAC). They recalculated my GPA to 2.79 (ouch). It is not what I graduated with, but due to some irresponsible early years in college, the grades screwed me. This was when I decided I wanted to be a mathematical sciences major at one point in 2012-2014, the classes did not go well.

I have NOT taken the LSAT yet, and I am scheduled for the June 2022 test.

I have always been a good standardized test taker (SAT: 1860/2400 at the time, ACT: 25 (ish), ASVAB: 97 -- (Note: did not go to military but took the test because I wanted to go at one point). I do realize, however, that the LSAT is a different beast. Not sure how I am going to do, since I opted NOT to take a diagnostic, I do not see the point personally other than potentially stressing myself out.

My target school is Florida International University (T100 school). It is somewhat local for me and they are one of the only law schools in the area with a part time program other than Nova Southeastern University (which is ranked considerably lower). I am trying to go for their part time program. I am a mom (had my son in February 2020) and it just works better for me and my life.

Any advice? I am so nervous. What type of score do you think I would need to be considered competitive?

ANY words of encouragement are greatly appreciated. This whole thing is causing me anxiety lol.

Thanks.

Is there a way to retake PTs on the 7sage module without erasing previous test taking results?

Thanks!

Hi Sagers!

Curious if anyone has used a computer monitor during their LSAT flex? Does anyone know if this is allowed?

Thanks!

Are the future LSAT's going to be online still? Or will they transition back to pen & paper?

This site (https://www.lsac.org/lsat/lsat-dates-deadlines/june-2022-lsat) states that LSAT's are online through June 2022. What about after June?

Any official sources to confirm?

update: it was just for the LSAT writing portion, i misread :)

Hello everyone, I'm writing in June and just got an email that had a section discussing how physical scratch paper is not allowed and that the LSAC has a digital scratch paper section to type notes. I'm honestly really worried because I've been doing LG all by hand and not sure how well this will translate to the online interface...

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!!

Did everyone else's syllabus just disappear and go to the demo version? What happened?!

I was just finishing my chaining conditional relationships lesson, when I jumped from just under 8% complete to 80% complete. Nearly the entire curriculum has disappeared. Has this happened to anyone else?

Did anyone else's syllabus just suddenly disappear???

What do the percentages mean when you hover over the answer choice column while Reviewing Results of practice problems you did. Are these the percentages of people that got them right the first time around (timed)? Or are these blind review percentages? They are very high for the correct answer choices (90% and up) then the incorrect answer choices have very low number like 2%, 6%, 12%, etc. I was wondering if that many people are getting these questions right when they do these problems the first time, timed, around because I get a lot wrong.

Hi 7Sage Community,

I would love to get some advice on how to study once you have run out of practice tests. I have been studying for about a year and have 3 clean PTs left. I am taking the June exam, but also am planning to take the August exam (just to be safe). Does anyone have advice on when to use those clean PTs and how to utilize old PTs effectively? Thank you!

Missed the webinar.

Did anyone join? Could someone please share what was discussed?

Hello,

I need some advice. I am an international student who is going through a hard time getting my transcript processed. LSAC CAS keeps rejecting my academic records without a proper explanation. Even though, I email them back, I don’t get a response. Next, I end up calling representatives and they keep giving me wrong information. As a result, I wasted a lot of money, effort and time. This is not acceptable. I am extremely stressed because of the negligence of LSAC. I don’t want to keep dealing with inefficient LSAC workers. I am missing deadlines of the universities that I wanted to apply.

If there’s some who had the same issue. Can you please tell me how did you resolve an issue? How can I make LSAC take responsibility for their actions?

I have dumb question that I unfortunately don't know the answer to. I am taking the lsat in either September or October. So I was wondering should I complete the whole course before I take the lsat for the first time, or should I only complete part of the course? I'm nervous that I'm going to run out of pt.

Hi all!

As the title suggests, I'm rather new to LSAT studying and just purchased 7Sage (grinded a little through PS bibles until I felt I wasn't understanding them very well). I've taken a diagnostic in Dec 2021, studied on and off until my real LSAT in April. I got a sadly lower score than I anticipated, but it encouraged me to invest in 7Sage and study differently.

With that being said, I just took another timed PT and scored a better one with still some big areas for improvement. I've already done the blind review.

What's the next step from here? Do I look for 7Sage content that tackles the topics I got wrong or go through question-by-question to work through each problem again? What has been most beneficial to you all when starting out? I want to be as effective and efficient with my time as possible as my tentative goal is to take the LSAT again in October.

I'll post my scores if it'll provide context :) (As an FYI, I haven't completely "learned" LG or RC yet and have spent the majority of my time thus far in LR.)

Thanks and good hunting to all!

Hey there,

First off all, how's your day going? I find that we all are so rushed to be hyper-productive we have a tendency to forget to check in with each other. So please do comment below or reach out if you want to have a casual conversation.

I'm writing this with an aimed target audience: Those that are carrying 100 responsibilities on their shoulders without the world really knowing. I'm sure a lot of you are lurking in the background, and that is perfectly fine. I might be wrong (hopefully) but I would guess that a big chunk of LSAT test takers are people with big dreams that come with big responsibilities and draining commitments. We commit to a lot of long hours of prep, heavy study schedules, and coffee. Don't get me wrong, I thrive on coffee and stress. Achieving what I set out for myself is what fuels me everyday and makes me happy but it isn't the easiest.

It is even harder when you have 'life things' lurking in the background. With a full-time job, I struggle with major anxiety everyday. I question if I am putting enough time into my law school dream, if I am studying enough for the LSAT. Study sessions slowly get harder and harder. It's not the easiest getting home after 9+ hours of work and spending another 3 studying. But, I promise myself it will be worth it.

I write this with one goal: To remind you (those who got this far into reading my overly lengthy post) that you are not alone. Somedays, you will see tremendous improvement in your prep and will get very happy. Other days, you will have a bad PT day, you might not be as happy but you must remind yourself that you are achieving and progressing nevertheless. Even with a bad PT score, you have the chance to see how the test tricked you and learn from it. At the end of the day, remember that the LSAT is just a game: You are just trying to find ways to trick it, as much as it is trying to trick you. You want to study the LSAT to a point where you stop falling in all the potholes the test takers hide within the test.

Regardless of all that, you just prepping for the test is an achievement of its own. It's not easy to commit to studying, and you are finding ways to do it. Prepping for the LSAT is no easy task, and can make you feel lonely and overly stressed, so please reach out to anyone whenever needed. Myself included. We are all here to see each other achieve, and screw over the LSAT as hard as it is screwing us over some days.

You have a great day, and congrats for making it this far.

F:)

I am performing pretty well when I take the sections individually, but I am not doing so great when I take the entire PTs. I find it that I get 2-3 (sometimes even 5) more wrong per section when I take the entire PTs. If anyone had similar experience, how did you overcome this? What helped you the most?

In case it helps, for the past month or so, I have been doing and reviewing at least 3 sections everyday (not necessarily from same PTs though). If I don't have time to do a full section, I would do at least 1 full LR and 2 games and 2 passages. This approach has been helpful, so I get used to "switching" modes.

It was in the last three weeks that I finally started hitting the 175+ mark consistently. I’m happy to talk to anyone about their unique situation and offer tips for making the most of these last three weeks. Leave a comment or send a dm and we can chat.
