Hi everyone,

So I’ve been studying for the LSAT since may. I’ve been studying through Powerscore but my LR is still stuck at -7 to -10. LG is my strongest section so I’m not too worried about that. And RC is my worst section. I wanted to ask, how long does it take to get through the CC? I haven’t done any of the 7Sage CC, I’ve only been doing PT’s and reviewing. I want to start working more efficiently and effectively so I can improve my score. Any tips to improve my LR & RC score will be really helpful! My goal score is 166, and I’m currently at mid 150’s.

Thank you so much for any help in advance!

Long story short: I'm looking for a time friendly solution to physically printing either problem sets or whole practice tests. For example, do you know of any way I could print a whole practice test with a click of a button that will only print the questions (no extra banners, texts, or other misc things like website banners) ?

Hi, I cancelled my upcoming premium renewal. It said I would have access until Oct. 6. However, after confirming cancellation, it now says I have access until August 6th. Is this a glitch? I was charged and paid Sept. 6 and saw the policy says I keep access until the month I purchased expires, not when I cancel. Any clarification would be appreciated.

EDIT: Now I can't even view a preptest....really hope this is a glitch and not misleading...

Hey everyone,

First time LSAT taker here. I'm taking the October LSAT on 10/10 and am hoping to get some input on when I should take my final PT. I've sort of been slingshotting between the mid 160s and low 170s on my PTs and was hoping to be more consistently in the 170s for game day. However, with the time I have left, I'm just going to do the best I can to get my best possible score and retake if necessary.

I'm curious if any repeat takers should advise on how to spend my last week and a half. I intend to take a PT this Sunday at the same time as my actual test to simulate it as best as possible. However, I also kind of want to take a last, final PT on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. That said, many people have advised not to take any PTs in the last week leading up to the actual test.

Hoping people can share what worked for them and advise me on any tips that might help me maximize my score.

Good luck to everyone else taking the October test!

Hi everyone!

Thank you for how helpful you've all been during this process! So I finished the CC and now I have 45 days till the LSAT. I've gotten my score up a few points (from mid 150s diagnostic to high 150s low 160s now) and I know I won't be able to "maximize" my score since I've only committed a few months, but my goal score is low-mid 160s and my top choices are mid tier state schools that prioritize public interest work. So I was wondering, is 25 practice tests in 45ish days too many? I'd be committing roughly 4-5 hours to each test between the actual exam and review. I've been committing around 8 hours a day to preparation so I feel like it should be reasonable, but I am also very new to intense study and prep testing. I'd appreciate any advice you all could throw my way, thank you so much!

    Hey everyone!

    I just wanted to brag a little since I'm self-studying and don't really have many people I can tell about this. I just got a 173 on PT 87 (BR 177)! I've been studying really hard and am super happy about my progress. Taking the October LSAT and hoping for a 171+. It's been a super inconsistent journey (I'd constantly backslide into the mid 160s). Just wanted to let everyone out there who may be struggling know that if you keep working at it and stay motivated, you should also be able to achieve your goal scores.

    Confidence is key.

    Best of luck to everyone and stay motivated. To all my fellow October LSAT takers, good luck in the home stretch before game day.

    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!

    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?

    Re-take

    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?
