Hi everyone! I hope you are having an amazing day!!

My name is Britt, and I am a tutor here at 7Sage. I am extremely passionate about mental health and mindfulness. On Thursday, March 17, at 9:00 PM ET, the 7Sage Tutoring Team and I will host a webinar about "Combating Test Anxiety." You can register for the webinar here:

https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_CPFna0UGTxWom4TGT8Orrw

However, I would love to hear some lingering concerns from you all. That is, I would love for you all to comment things you would like me to discuss in the webinar or comment any questions you may have.

I am hoping that this Webinar can shed some light on how capable you all are of defeating this test and provide you all with some tips on anxiety/focus.

Best,

Britt

I have spent the last two and a half months going through the core curriculum and now that I have finished it, I feel like I have built a solid foundation of the test. I have a couple questions about the test, mainly the LG, and progressing with my studies.

About LG:

I have done some games prior to doing 7sage’s LG course, but they were all in PT40s-60s. I saw a couple misc games in those PTs and didn’t think they were too bad. However, I felt that some of the games I saw in PT1-35 were the most difficult games I’ve ever seen. Mainly because the misc games were so hard to diagram and it was frustrating to visualize it. I was under the assumption (because of what my friends told me) that the old LGs were easier than the new games, but the more I look into it people say the old LGs are more difficult and the new LSATs does not have some of those weird diagram games anymore from the 1990s-early 2000s. What’s the consensus on the older and newer LG games in terms of difficulty and diagramming?

Also, I plan on foolproofing using Pacifico’s method(link for reference: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/2737) for PT1-35 so I can get a better feel for doing games. If anyone is familiar/did it with it, how many games did you do per week? Should I for example, start 5 on Monday, re-take on Tuesday, start a new 5 on Wednesday like one of the last comments on that thread said.

Tips on moving forward:

So, now I’m kind of stuck on what to do for the other sections right now as I foolproof LG. I committed myself for 1.5 months on the LR curriculum and when I finished it, I didn’t look at it until I finished the LG and RC section. But I think that break was beneficial for me anyway, so how should I progress into doing full sections from untimed to timed. I also picked up the loophole because I heard it’s great to supplement with the LR curriculum. I was wondering for anyone who did the same, how did you incorporate reading the Loophole to what you had already learned from 7sage? Mainly what I am asking is how should I set up my weekly schedule now for drilling? My targeted test date is June, so I have about 2.5 months and I have no obligations for anything else.

When will we know if the August 2022 LSAT will be online or in person?

Hi yall,

I've been studying since September for the April LSAT and I feel really frustratred. I first made the mistake of studying a Kaplan book, but then switched over to Khan Academy and LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim. I got 7sage in December and have been studying in this space ever since. I have gone over the lessons, learned each stimilus type, drilled tons of games, done everything that I thought was right and I'm still not increasing my score AT ALL from November. It's embarrassing and frustrating. Does anyone have any tips on how I can really improve?

I’ve been using 7sage for some months now and still don’t know what this column’s information references. Anyone know?

https://www.lsac.org/about/news/lsac-launches-program-offer-new-holistic-pathway-law-school

the Legal Education Program will provide a second, equally valid and reliable alternative for law school admission in the future that will complement the proven LSAT exam.

The phrase “alternative” throws me off, can someone give insight?

Hi! I'm not sure if I'm doing something differently, but in the past, I was able to scroll over the icon that looks like a recycling symbol to see how I answered a question in the past, and when I answered that question. However, that option seems to have disappeared? Thanks!

Happening tonight!

Hi all, looking for some advice. I hit a wall with LG (Grouping) after nearly two months, I am now focusing on LR instead. Should I formulate a study plan that alternates between two sections every other day or should I solely focus on LR for right now? Any advice on how to study would be extremely helpful.

Has anyone else come to the point in their studies where they are beginning to think they have a cognitive disability when it comes to reading during this test?

For instance the other day, I went a whole 10 to 12 minutes thinking that the question was talking about Flies, the Red, Green, and Yellow kinds. Even after BR, the entire time, flies. Then after watching the explanation, JY starts talking about Red files, green files, and yellow files.... -_-

I am done the CC and have put in about 500 hours + of practice/study time in the last 2.5 months. At this point and realization I do not think there is any hope in hell that I can actually ever score a 160 when I can't even read properly......

Hi,

I'm registered to take the June LSAT and spent a couple months mastering the LG.

Now that I've made progress here (although I'm stilll not getting -0 - -2 consistently lol) I'd like to start studying for LR.

How should I go about it??

Any advice would be appreciated!

Interested in pursuing a law degree .. graduated college many years ago. Call it my change of life…

Where should I start in respect to LSAT studying and prepping? Finances are an issue so anything free or low budget I’m

Interested…

First 3 steps to moving forward on lsat other than registering … need to take it slow but moving forward at a decent pace.

I am in the sticky middle of my LSAT studying and need some advice. For context, I took a diagnostic in October 2021 got a 140, then I took the August LSAT '21 (148), then again in November '21 (152). I studied consistently from October up until November and am now picking up consistency until the August LSAT. I have been taking 1 pt a week and blind reviewing then reviewing it the day after. I seem to get stuck in the hard and harder LR questions and can't seem to fully grasp parallel flaw question types. I went through the entire CC once but maybe I should go through it again. I can't seem to get higher than 156 and break into the160's. Does anyone have any tips on what to do?

Hey! I just started 7Sage and will take my first PrepTest on 7Sage tomorrow (the June 2007 one). I have taken some PrepTests and drills on and off from different websites, but this is my first time doing an actual course. I'm curious as to how long Blind Review usually takes for other students, and also if anyone has any tips on the routine. For example, do you do the PT/BR/explanation videos on different days, or do you try to fit it all into one day? Thank you in advance for any feedback!

I'm not seeing a place to sign up for the test on my LSAC account. Is registration open?

If I take a gap year, will my score suffer because I won't be doing school every day?

After a whole year of studying I've ended up with a disappointing score of 166 and zero admits, plus another year on a job I hate :/

Hey everyone!

Hi. This is my first time posting on here!

Do your scores vary greatly? Mine do, and it's making me feel a little crazy. I have no idea if this happens to other folks, and, if it is preventable, what I can do about it.

My goal is to get a 170, at least. On Tuesday I got a 166- only 4 points away! Then today I scored a 158. What da fooq?

Granted, yes, I was feeling a little more tired today than I did the other day. Does tiredness cause an 8 point fall?! Should I always avoid taking a practice test if I'm not feeling up to it or is it good to sometimes push through (even if it means a lower score)?

I have no friends studying for the LSAT, much less friends who are trying to score 170+. Any advice on how to even out scores or even just confirmation that I'm not nuts would be appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi there, I'm wondering how to best approach taking simulated LSATs for the April exam. There will be 4 sections (LR, RC, LG, and one variable section) so when simulating the exams how should I account for that one variable section? Most 4 section tests on 7Sage have 2 LR sections and on test day there could be 2 LG/RC sections. Any advice would be appreciated!

I found correlation statement and causal statement are quite easy to confuse in LSAT. I think it is good to come up with list that LSAT usually makes those statements. I can have a go first.

1/correlation

sth correlate/associate with sth

sb find correlation/association between sth and sth

2/causation

sth lead to sth

sth contribute to sth

sth cause sth

The list is not complete. Any input is welcome.

Hi y'all. Putting this out here because some LSAT studiers are in similar positions or is thinking about it. Also as a headline this post is not about SUITABILITY regarding such decision. In addition I have been studying for two months planning on taking the June 2022 LSAT. I am going to be resigning from my hectic ape show of a career in Financial Investments Brokerage Services to study for the LSAT full time. Gives me about 1.85 months of full time studying. It means moving back home at almost 30 but my parents are stoked. Thank goodness, soon no more margin accounts and Stock Plan administration lol.

I have multiple Financial Investments Brokerage services licenses including the infamous S7 and an active CA Realtor's license. I am used to the time management and test taking skills needed for license like tests. However with the LSAT and even familiarity with the content I find it difficult to really put the dedication needed. It is more difficult than the S7, I can go ad-nauseum. I definitely have more privileges' than others but no means is this something of low-risk nor my parents wealthy or upper middle class like many of you. I learned in Financial Investments sometimes you need to take a loss now for a better long term investment.

Like mentioned this is not saying you should quit/sabbatical. I hope folks feel some type of catharsis from me sharing this. See you in Law School :D!

Hi! - I am registered for the June LSAT, but wondering when/how you register for the specific day/time? I feel like I am missing some information and I haven't been able to find it on the LSAC website. Thank you!
