Does anyone know when the November LSAT will be given? The previous times I took it, I was given a bunch of different times/days over one week and got to pick when I took it but when I signed up for Novembers, it said that the test would only be given on 3 days on a weekend. Does anyone know for sure?
Hi!
This will be my first take. Is there a timer? or how do you know how much time you have left? I think there is also 1 minute break between the 1 and 2 section, a 10 minute between 2 and 3 and 1 minute between 3 and 4. is that right?
Am I allowed to drink water during the sections? It really calms my nerves, when Im getting overwhelmed. Am I allowed to chew gum?
Thank you!
Hi everyone,
Given November 2021 LSAT will be administered in four sections, including an experimental-unscored one, do you think it's good idea to do Prep tests simulating LSAT-Flex on 7Sage? (Because we don't know whether the experimental section will be in LR)
Or, continuing to drill with four section format is still better?
I'd love to hear your thoughts!
Thanks!
Took two PT's: PT4 & PT5. Both as Flex.
On PT4 I got -8 overall and received a total score of 169.
On PT5 I got -11 overall and received a score of 170.
I figure some of this would be due to weighting of questions with some tests being harder than others, which is I believe why we don't use 'raw scores', but this still seems kind of off? Is that degree of variation in scoring that common?
Mainly concerned because I am shooting for 170+ and had kind of been working on the assumption that I need to be dropping less than 10 questions to ensure that - generally this seems to be the case in most PT's I have done. Clearly that was a flaw in my reasoning!
What does "Psg/Game/S/Difficulty" mean?
I completely missed this! Does anybody have any notes/screencaps/information they can share from it? It would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Best,

I actually was watching the movie and recognized a logic game set she was doing and I was like I been studying way too much for this test lol smh
Dear all,
Might anyone have advice on sitting for the October LSAT in Asia at a timeslot outside the timings offered?
The current timings take place from 11pm to 5.30am, which are probably the most unearthly hours to take a test.
I've contacted LSAC but they've asked me to reach out to ProctorU instead. Was thinking of asking them on Monday, but can anyone share their experiences and suggestions on what might be done?
Hi!
I am taking my first test in October and I am currently scoring where I want to score.. but should I register for the November LSAT just in case I don't score in my target? Or should I register for the January one so its not too rushed. I dont want to waste a take.
I live in Canada, so the application is different than in the US. The schools I am applying to still take the January LSAT.
Thanks!
I have been studying for the LSAT for the past couple of months. I'm looking for someone who's down to take an LR section and talk through questions together. I prefer a West coast person since that would make scheduling sessions easier. Every week we would meet twice (ideally Wednesday/Thursday) mornings. I can do zoom, and if you are in Southern California (SD area), we can also meet in person. PM me if you are serious about making a commitment twice a week and improving our scores together :)
Hi so I’m currently planning on taking the LSAT in November and plan to retake in January as well and I have already been approved for my accommodations which is great. The only problem is that I originally was doing a different prep course and it started out very well but started to feel like I was wasting my time and not getting anywhere so I stopped that bought a couple of power books and have been reading those. They definitely are helping but I just felt I needed more direction and kept hearing good things about 7Sage so I bought it to give it a shot. I was wondering whether you think it’s best to follow the sage outline or just jump around and play around with the system
If I upload my transcripts to LSAC, purchase a CAS account, fill out applications etc, and decide to apply next cycle as opposed to this, will I need to repeat this entire effort or only parts of it?
So I wrote the LSAT for the first time in June and cancelled my score because I scored way lower than I expected. I'm currently registered for the October LSAT and my score is kind of where I want it. I'm kind of stressed about taking the test because I don't know if I can see my score and cancel it if I don't like it. Is that just something they offer for your first test? Part of me wants to move my test to November but another part of me thinks I'm just freaking out because of my anxiety. If I can see my score, I'm thinking of registering for the November test and then deciding whether or not I want to write it after viewing my score. Otherwise I might just move it to November. Help.
I'm curious -- for those who have already taken the virtual LSAT -- what device did you use? (i.e., 13" Macbook, 16" Macbook) I have been using a 27" Mac desktop but I'll be taking the LSAT from a hotel and am not sure bringing the desktop will be practical (although it's a possibility).
My laptop is seriously outdated so I'll need to purchase another but I'm kind of freaking out about screen size?
If anyone can help, please reply to this thread with your device and what you liked/disliked about your LSAT experience!
October test is 2 weeks away! Just wanted to say you're doing great. You got this. We've studied more than we maybe even thought possible. Keep pushing through these next couple weeks. If you're anything like me, you might be just a bit tired (turns out, working full-time and studying is not the most relaxing combo anyone ever created). Keep getting your reps in for the subjects you need to practice. We've got the knowledge. We've got the repetitions. Excited to see the payoff. If you have any encouraging words for your fellow October test takers, post them below!
Hi guys. I have been hesitant to post my story because I am always super hard on myself and didn't wanna share this but I thought it could be beneficial. I started my LSAT journey 7 months ago, but struggle with severe test anxiety and just general confidence issues. I had been PT-ing in the 160s prior to my August LSAT, but took August and got the lowest score I've ever gotten, even lower than my diagnostic. I had a panic attack during logic games and kind of lost it all. Today, I am preparing for October and I have gotten PT's of 168,169,166,170,171. I write all of this to let you guys know that it is possible, even if you don't think it is. You just have to keep going. Even now, I hesitant to post this because my brain is like, "Will I replicate this for October?" But if anyone needs a push to keep going, you can. My PTs are already 10 points higher than my August score and it's only been a couple weeks. You have it in you, just believe you do!
wanted to let anyone know that might've forgotten
Hello,
Before I starting my journey here on 7Sage, I was an educator. I tend to create visual/organized charts that can help me organize everything into smaller portions. I want to share this with you because I know some of you might be visual learners and instead of "flashcards" you're better at memorizing charts. For example: maybe you remember that sufficient condition is on the left side of the chart and under that left side you can "visualize" the keywords. On some of the charts, you'll see a picture/color that can help those who remember colors/shapes more than words. You can make a copy and make it your own.
Hope this helps! Please let me know if I made mistakes on any of the charts.

I am curious to learn what everyone else is doing to prepare themselves for the exam. Are you focusing on taking the most recent PTs and blind reviewing?
For those of you who have taken the test before, do you have any recommendations to really get in the exam mode?
Just thought I'd let you guys know that registration for time slots for the October LSAT is now open through your ProctorU account! Good luck!
Hi, sorry if this has been asked before.
LR is my weakest section and I'm looking to compile LR questions I've got wrong on past PTs.
I know I can see all the questions I got wrong on PTs from the Analytics tool, but is there a way to put them into a problem set so I don't see the answer while I'm reviewing them?
Hello,
I'm taking the LSAT again after a break from studying. How can I delete where it shows how many times I've taken a prep test or problem set?
Hey everyone, I am new to 7sage. I briefly used it a while ago but I have been using a different platform, I had purchased a package and I have been studying for 4 months with that platform but I have not seen any significant improvement. I have seen improvement in my BR score to 160 but my timed tests remain in the 150s and I actually went down one point. I am inclined to stop using that other program and use 7sage instead given all the great testimonies and conversations I'm seeing here. My question is would this be more harmful for me to switch platforms when I've already started studying with that other program or should I switch if I am not seeing results? I'm not sure where to go from here. Any advice would be greatly appreciated. I have not taken any official LSATs and my goal would be to get to the 170s.
Hello!!
I’m trying to sign up for my Proctor U account but it’s asking for an institution. My university is not listed in the universities that you get to pick from, and it’s a required area to sign up. I’m not sure what to do, if anyone could help me, I would really appreciate it. Thanks!!!
Hey all! I'm just looking for a bit of advice for my situation.
I'm a Canadian applicant (Ontario) and my applications will be due November 1st, but I can take the LSAT up until January 2022.
I am going into my third cycle of applications, and while my situation is different this time around I can't help but feel like I shouldn't apply this year since I don't have the score I need on file - I'm registered for November's test.
Both previous cycles that I applied for were a rush for me, I hadn't even broken a 160 and that was the score I needed, I was clearly applying very prematurely lol. This time around - my latest PT was a 165 and I'm working with a tutor, so the way I've approached the exam is very different.
Anyways, I told myself that if I'm applying this year I need to reconnect with my professors by October 1st so that they have sufficient time to re-upload their LOR's but I am realizing and panicking now because that's next week lol.
I guess what I'm getting at is - I feel like I'm doing the same thing over again which has only ever resulted in failure. While my capabilities and score is much different this time around, I still have anxieties about applying without a score. When I'm weighing my options though, it doesn't seem worth it to take another entire year off when I am scoring above my goal?
Just looking for anyone else who may have helpful advice to offer!
