I have scored 163-165 on my last 10 PTs. Sitting around -3 LR, -2 LG, -7 RC. However, this is inconsistent. The only pattern I can really see is the higher difficulty questions (level 4 and 5) trip me up. Any tips of nailing these down?
Hi all, I am registered for the April 2022 LSAT and started working through the core curriculum in mid October. I work 40-50 hours a week for a bank's legal department and I am only able to study for about 18-20 hours a week. According to 7Sage's study schedule I will not complete everything, including all of the prep tests, until next October if I am studying for 18 hours a week. My plan is to complete the core curriculum and then do 2-3 prep tests per week from there and get through however many I am able to complete between when I am done with the core curriculum and the real test, but I know I will not be able to complete all of them. Once I'm ready for prep tests, should I start from newer ones and work my way back towards older ones so that I'm working on tests that are (I'm assuming) more similar to the test I will take? Or oldest to newest? Or maybe start somewhere in the middle? Any advice is appreciated!
My LSAT journey has, at long last, come to an end and I have several books that are now in need of new homes. As I am in Seattle and shipping is expensive for the heavy tomes, I will only be offering them for local pickup. One per customer, and please only request if you are unable to afford these on your own. I know some LSAT materials can be cost prohibitive, it is my hope to mitigate that for a few folks. Here's what I've got:
-The Loophole in Logical Reasoning
-10 Actual, Official LSAT Preptests (52-61)
-PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible (2015 edition)
-PowerScore LSAT Logic Games Bible Workbook (2015 edition)
-The Fox LSAT Logic Games Playbook
Please PM me to request, again, only if in the Seattle area!
I need advice on how to study for a retake after experiencing technical difficulties on November LSAT. I have not had much luck with the remote LSAT as I had technical difficulties back in June 2021 as well.
I am trying to hit solid 150s on an official take. My June 2021 score was a few points away from the 150s. I would still like to apply this cycle and take off.
Thank you and good luck all.
I just took PTJ07 and as soon as I finished my brain felt fatigued already. Is it recommended to immediately go into blind review as soon as it’s finished? Or is it better to do the BR the next day to get optimal scores? Or would doing it the next day be detrimental to the process?
I got approved to take the November 23rd test after the technical disaster that happened.
I just finished my test and I am extremely upset and disappointed. The first half of the exam went well and I had no issues at all. However, after the 10 minute intermission I continuously got a message saying that the page was unresponsive (by continuously I mean several times within the minute). So basically, the whole second half of the test I lost a lot of my time and was distracted. I'm still hoping I somehow do good but the experience was horrible and if I had to test again I would wait to test in person. Has anyone had a similar experience?
Got 161 in August, tried again with this one in November and bombed hard (will see if I can appeal the tech issues like everyone else)
I don't think I have what it takes anymore after two years of studying.
I know I shouldn't be angry at a 80th percentile score, considering Hispanics get below 150, (don't wanna even imagine Autists or DACA recipients)
I just wanna say I'm glad for everyone who helped me when I asked hundreds of questions!
Apologies if you see me upset with how emotional I really felt about this. ASD people can get severe emotional reaction and for me getting wrong questions was really bad for me. I just got upset that I didn't get my goal of 163 to get the medium for UF in fear that this will lower my chances (161, URM, 3.47 CAS GPA)
Anyways, on my way to do ED for University of FL lol
Hello 7Sagers,
For those who have already tested, I hope you crushed!!
For those testing tomorrow and Sunday, a word of advice:
Have this page readily available in case your proctor is unaware of LSAC policy:
https://www.lsac.org/about/lsac-policies/lsac-candidate-agreement
My proctor disallowed my water bottle even though it met the specified requirements. Thankfully I had another one available that he deemed OK so I didn't have to get into it with him -- but looking back on it (hindsight's 20/20 of course), it would have been better to just show him the policy straight from LSAC and end the matter right there.
So this is not a bash on the proctor or anything -- they proctor a range of tests so it's completely understandable that they don't know every single LSAC rule -- but just a reminder to (politely) show them the reference if you have to and carry on smartly.
Hope this helps!
Hey guys! I had a hard time with October because I was too tired to finish the test. How should I build enough stamina to do the whole test? Any tips?
Thanks!
Hi Y'all, the title says it all. Where do I go from here? I thoroughly did my BR so I know my theoretical maximum is a 166. I'm curious as to how other folks use data from a PT and plan their week studying. Some takeaways I have so far:
Anyway, any advice you have on how to use this data will be really appreciated.
Trying to find a bunch of posts that I've "liked" so that I can go back and read them fully, but i'm having a hard time finding them.
Anyone have any idea how/where I can search for this?
For those who took PT91 as a PT, what did you think of the test? Easier, difficult? Would like to see what others think.
Hi Everyone,
I'm taking the LSAT at a hotel because the wifi at my house is kind of spotty. I was wondering if I can have the TV in the room or if I should call the front desk to have it removed. Also trying to pick a spot in the room where I am going to take the test so anything else that might be relevant in terms of what I can / can not have near me or in the room. Thank you!
Hello everyone. I was planning to take the LSAT tomorrow but I can not. I am a first time taker and paid score cancellation fee for this exam. If I change the test date to Jan, can I still use score cancellation right? I could not find sufficient information about it. Thank you!

This one is for the Admins of 7Sage. So, November 13 is when I'll be taking the LSAT for the very first time. After that, regardless of score I get, I want to take a break from the LSAT and studying. As such, I've cancelled my subscription to 7Sage as of today so I can take a break and save some money.
However, I do plan on taking the test again if I don't get the score I wanted and would like to use 7Sage in March 2022 to study again. Will I have the option to pick things up where I left them or do I have to make a new account or something else entirely?
[I am posting on behalf of a 7Sage user. Please feel free to leave your comments below. Thank you for your help!]
7sage looks great, I just feel overwhelmed with how much it has to offer and how to really get started on it. I've had probably the worst LSAT journey and have my exam this Friday, although I do not feel as prepared as I would like to and know that I will most probably be taking it again in January but self studying can only take you so far! I would love some more insight on what you think I should do
Hi everyone. I was thinking how PTs scores reflect the real exam score. Do you think that PSs are generally higher than the exam, or very close? Good luck!
A healthy, positive, and optimistic mindset is essential to these last few days of preparation and overall, going into this exam.
You are going to to do great.
You will stay positive and optimistic.
You will remain calm and collective.
You will not have any negative thoughts.
You will not exert any negative energy.
You will only think about getting a 180.
YOU GOT THIS!
You will do amazing, I BELIEVE IN YOU!
Stay motivated, stay driven, and MOST IMPORTANTLY BE CONFIDENT IN YOUR DECISION MAKING!
To a productive day and week, LETS SHOW THE LSAT WHO IS BOSS!
Hi All,
First and foremost, hope everyone is having a great week and I wish November LSAT test takers all the best. We got this.
I received an email from LSAC today as I will be writing the November exam. The email had information on how to reach LSAC on test day if tech issues arise.
I really hope I will have a smooth test day experience. If I do need to call LSAC on the test day due to tech issues, does anyone know if I can have my phone on speaker while I am calling LSAC for help given that I am still being recorded by ProctorU? I just have very bad service on my phone and have to use speaker at times to be able to even hear the other party on the line.
I am unable to upgrade my phone plan at this time due to finances.
Thank you and best of luck!

possibly 91 as well
why doesn’t pt92 have line numbers for RC?
I'm confused if I should focus on RC for about a few weeks or a month, but I am afraid this will jeopardize my LR/LG scores. Do you guys think it's a good idea to do this and have a day or two devoted to the other sections.
Thank you guys very much for any feedback!
I just finished taking a practice flex exam and I received a pretty low score. When I inputted the number of incorrect answers I received into score conversion statistics I received a way higher score and I was wondering why that is?
Hello 7Sage Community,
I already have an LSAT Writing on file, so my Nov score will not be held up from release. But my question is: will I still have the opportunity to take an additional LSAT writing (the one paired with my Nov test) AFTER LSAC releases my score? Or as soon as the score is released (b/c of my previous LSAT writing on file), will my option to take an additional one go away?
I understand the rules around not having any LSAT writing on file and how that relates to score release - so this question is not relating to that situation, but rather to the specific scenario described above.
Would appreciate any words of wisdom -- Happy studying!
