For LR and RC (especially with LR) when I go back and forth between two answer choices I always end up picking the wrong one. In my BR I can come up with all the reasons for picking the wrong one and not the other (right) answer choice. Can someone please share what they do when they are going back and forth between the right answer choice and the second best answer choice? I have tried going back to the stimulus, doing grammar analysis, locating referential phrases, identifying the gap between the premise and the conclusion, analyzing why I didn't pick the right answer choice. But I still end up picking the wrong one timed (and also sometimes during BR). Any suggestion would be really helpful!!

I would totally be willing to buy any merch from 7sage. Especially if its like a t-shirt that says who cares? or something :D

I’ve really been making strides the past two weeks. I’ve gotten my BR score from a month ago on a timed LSAT. How can I jump into the 170’s? Is it purely taking PT’s? Or am I at a point I need to take a more niche course? I think I have LG and mostly RC locked down, and have a couple of questions in each LR that scramble my brain like Sunday morning breakfast. Advice and/or jokes are highly appreciated.

Hey guys,

The upcoming August LSAT is my first LSAT ever and while I'm almost mentally broke from the stress, I've been thinking about how the test will be administered online. So my understanding is that we sit in our own rooms (unless you have accommodation) and a proctor will identify your ID (which I assume we just hold up to the webcam?) then we have to show them a sweep of the room and table which is where I'm a little lost.

I'll be using a standard laptop camera which is incorporated on top of the screen, so do I just carry the laptop in awkward angles and do a little twirl? I feel like this is a little weird and time-consuming if everyone has to do it at the same time.

Also by proctor, does that mean everyone is assigned a human to check ID, table, room etc., or is this an automated message that just plays before the exam?

I'm so sorry if these are newbie questions that are already answered somewhere else online -- I couldn't find them on the LSAC website.

Any insight would help so much! Thank you in advance!

I was thinking of starting doing them as soon as I start the core curriculum on 7sage. However, I heard that it's usually recommended to alter the type of drills you're doing. For example, combining RC with LR, etc. Since the 7sage core curriculum is organized by the three sections, doing drills in parallel would mean separating the RC drills from LR and LG.

I'm interested to hear your thoughts on best strategy :)

I just took my first practice test on Lawhub since the actual test is only a little over a week away. I got a score lower than I've been getting and ran out of time on some sections which hasn't happened to me in a while. I'm hoping this is just because this was a new interface. Has anyone else had lower scores when adjusting from 7sage to lawhub?

So i've been studying for about 3-4 months. I'm consistently scoring in the low 160s but would like to break 170. Originally I struggled a lot with logic games so I worked hard on those but the last 3 weeks or so my test scores have gone down from my highest (166) because im missing 7-8 questions each on RC and LR. Originally I was missing far fewer on those sections and i'm feeling frustrated that my score in those sections has gotten worse. I know I can retake the test but any encouragement or advice? I'm particularly struggling on NA questions for LR and just not understanding passages in RC (i.e. I'll get every question right for one passage in RC and then four wrong in the next one). Idk what I'm asking for but any comments are appreciated!

Need a tutor for help with Logical Reasoning. Looking to do a 3-4 sessions a week. Plan on taking the November exam. Please contact me.

For anyone who has taken the lsat flex's recently, what pt do yall think they are more similar to? Ex: 60s,70s,80s? in LR, which question types are more popular?

For respectively the RC sections and the LR sections. For me they take up a lot of time but do help. I was wondering if people actually strictly follow these "tips" given by J.Y during real, timed full tests. Do you get faster at doing them after practicing?

Problem sets and prep tests aren't loading. When I click on one, it shows nothing but the margins and the headings.

Hello :)

I have put aside one month of studying just to focus on taking practice exams. My question to some of you that have taken a large amount of test exams:

Personally, I am going to try and stick it through with the approach that 7sage has (preptests at the end). I used to try and take a preptest every week, but I felt it was useless if I had not learned and drilled ALL of the material needed. I always seemingly answered questions I had not studied and it just seemed counterintuitive.

I want which one do you think helps more and from personal experience, has helped scores increase.

Has anyone taken the remote LSAT at the hotel? If yes, how was the wifi? Did you need to move any furniture or cover the electronics like TV?

Thank you

Hello All! I hope all is well.

My 7sage subscription says that it expires tomorrow (August 6th). Will I still be able to access it all day tomorrow or is today (the 5th) my last day?

Thank you! Best of luck.

I have read through several discussion threads and am seeing a lot of the same thing. If you go too hard the week leading up to your test, you'll likely be burnt out and under perform. I had a big plateau in early July, but have since improved and am scoring above my target score. I worry, slightly, that because I am just now getting PT's above my target, that I need to press on and take at least 4 more PT's. Is this too much? Would I be better off just resting and taking a few drills of problematic questions types? Any advice appreciated!

I am taking the LSAT for the first time in August. Do I have to complete my writing sample before the exam or do I have a few days after to complete it? I saw in June you were able to complete the writing after you complete the LSAT but just want to make sure I don't miss my window! I'd rather not waste time on that until after I've finished the LSAT.

I get that starting a separate thread for each question I have would probably be bad form, but I was wondering if I could start a new thread, say for every 10 (or even 20) of my help tag requests that go unanswered. Of course, after receiving useful help, I'll go update my original request with helpful response from others; that would seem to be the least I could do to "pay it forward".

From the general ethos of this site, my take is that this would be permissible, but I want to make sure I don't run afoul of anything.

Or is the prevailing view here that those unanswered help tag requests should be best left for tutors on an individual basis?

Background: A lot of help tags rarely get answered. I may have at most 2 out of 10 answered so far. And as I am making my way through the curriculum, I often see unanswered comments with help tags from months ago. Perhaps those questions no longer need to be addressed, but I get the impression that having them addressed earlier would have been beneficial to the original requester.

I'm just starting the core curriculum, but I tend to start my day by browsing the list of help tags. Some of these are inappropriate for me to answer (e.g. unfamiliar topics), but as I have retained quite a bit from the college-level prepositional logic course at which I did well, I try to help out where I can, fully cognizant of the fact that I'm also benefiting by having to formulate and distill my own thought processes while I answer the questions.

Started studying in late May with a 150 diagnostic and have improved to scoring in the low 160s, but have regressed to the mid 150s in the couple of 80s PTs I've taken. Before, I was going -3-5 in LR, and now I'm going -11... I just feel so discouraged and like none of the hard work I've put in has helped now. Anyone else experience something similar and overcome it?

Does anyone know if 7sage has a section for where you can just take practice sections? I know I could take a practice test and only one section but I don't know what the section type is until I start.

What I'm looking for is a place to only do LR/RC?LG test sections to build endurance and speed.

in title- lawhub not loading anything

Soooo. Im sitting, grinding for my exam, fullproofing games, and the interface is acting all funky. I see a bunch of boxes where I should be able to click things like changing time and submitting.... anybody else experiencing this? I have tried logging in and out, shutting my computer down, different wifi, etc........

I'm noticing that the 70-75 mark, games are more easy in terms of logic games with barely any misc games, difficulty spikes in reading comprehension with passages being 8 questions sometimes and much longer passages, and practical complete shifts in LR to strength/weaken/flaw questions with the other types sprinkled in.

Am I being too analytical or is this shift more permanent so I should change my remaining study schedule?

Thanks!

I am taking the August LSAT, which is my first, and am hoping to get my score ASAP so I know both if I need to take it again in October and if I should cancel my score. I know there is a warning that you cannot get your grade until after your written section has been accepted. A few questions regarding the process:

1) How long does it usually take for a written section to be confirmed?

2) If I took the written section a few days after the test would my score be delayed?

3) If my score is delayed, will I still be able to cancel that score using my one time option as a new test taker?

At the moment I am laser focused on trying to get the best possible score and I don't want to lose that by shifting focus to the written section. I am hoping to get some opinions on whether that is the right strategy or if I should bite the bullet and do the written section before the rest of the test.

I've been taking PTs as I prepare for the August test (as I'm sure most of you out there have been doing). I've opted to take all four sections during my practice in order to get a feel for the full test. As I was lurking on the discussion boards, I saw someone say that taking the "Simulate Flex" option will give you a more accurate score since there is no experimental section.

Does that mean all the PTs I've taken with the full four sections is scoring the experimental section? Or is the experimental section already incorporated into the score that 7Sage gives me?

Is there a way to calculate my "real" score? Do I simply take away one LR section score and recalculate my raw score is using the 7Sage raw score chart (https://classic.7sage.com/lsat-score-percentile-conversion/)?
