When making the study schedule would it be unwise to put the end date August 14th (the week the August LSAT is taken)? In other words, should I stop drilling practice exams and reviewing materials a couple days before the August exam?

Dear 7sagers,

Hope everyone is doing well. I was wondering if anyone has had a great experience with a tutor that they can recommend. I am doing pretty well on LG so the 2 sections I really need help on are RC and LR. I average a -5 on LR and I am hoping to bring it down to a consistent -2. For RC my scores I fluctuate pretty dramatically from -8 to -4 so I am looking for a way that can help me get a -4 or less consistently. The RC sections that I do well on tend to be ones where I am very familiar with the content, so my goal is really to find a plan that's "content-proof" which would allow me to get the same score regardless of my familiarity with the content, which I have been told is the key to a -4/-3 on RC.

Any advice or recommendations is truly appreciated.

Thank you!

...here in the discussion forum as well as in the explanation video comments. That means the hard ones you don't wan't to answer. The ones from earlier PTs that don't have videos to check your understanding before posting. The ones about RC you don't want to do because you don't want to read the passage or maybe you're not even sure you understand it.

This is one of the highest value things you can do for your prep. There is no better way to learn and test your understanding of a concept than to try to teach it to someone else. You all should be pouncing on these questions as soon as you see them come up... like they shouldn't last 5 minutes going unanswered. It is beneficial for you, the person asking, and the community as a whole.

Be brave and push yourself. Seek to be proven wrong, don't avoid it. We improve the most at the threshold of failure.

Does it matter what law school you go to?

Hi Guys,

I just signed up for 7sage and I think the course is fantastic. I'm preparing to sign up for the October lsat or even the November lsat. The course is telling me to do 55 hours a week to prepare and I simply cannot do that. The maximum number of hours I could reasonably study per week is about 30, since I'm taking summer school and I wouldn't want to risk burnout. I already do fairly well on the Reading Comprehension, I just need a lot of practice on Logic Games and Logical Reasoning. Given that I have about 3.5 months to study, is 25-30 hours a week enough? I'm aiming for a 165+ on the lsat. I got in the low 140s for the diagnostic, however, it was my very first test. Any thoughts would be very appreciated!

Thank you

Hello,

How is everyone who is taking the october LSAT testing and determining your score?

I understand that the october lsat consists of 3 graded portions and one experimental. However, how do you guys account this when you are PTing? I have been doing the 4 sections just to help me have more mental endurance, but the score for 4 sections wont be the same scale as one for 3 sections( if you all know what i mean).

Please share your process, Thank you in advance!

Hi 7Sage!

My last PT was a 152 and my current and highest BR score stands at 171. Trying to get above a 162 on real test day. Is it that possible for someone who is more of a slower reader and does not have the best focus endurance?

Obviously a big gap that can be found in timing issues.

So my main question is: what are some good timing drills you do in RC, LR, and LG that helped you get better at speed and timing?

Thanks!

hi all, i took a PT and scored a 154. however, my BR score is a 169. does anyone have any recommendations on bridging this? appreciate it !

Currently at 165-166 and aiming to get to 170+ by August. Is it possible to make the jump? Regardless I plan on taking October to shoot for low to mid 170's

I had connection issues last weekend, and I need to decide whether or not I am going to opt into the retest that they offered me.

Do we know how common connection issues actually are for the FLEX?

(The issues I experienced were clearly related to ProctorU/LSAC servers, not my personal setup)

Thanks!

I was recently sent an email regarding an option to retest for the June LSAT due to technical problems. First I wanted to know if I took the retake would it count as a second attempt for the LSAT. And second, if I kept whatever the score would be (which was one of the options), would I get a voucher for a future exam date? Based on the wording of the email, it seems like if I just keep the score I would not get a voucher or something for a future test date, I would need to cancel for the voucher. Also would canceling and getting the voucher mean I have to test in August or can it be just a future date like October?

The options seem to be:

Retest on Thursday, June 24, 2021.

Keep your June 2021 LSAT-Flex score.

Cancel your June 2021 LSAT-Flex score and be registered for the next available LSAT administration. Please Note: If you have reached your test-taking limit, we will not be able to register you for an upcoming LSAT, per our Test Taking Limit (TTL) policy. More information can be found here: Limits on Repeating the Test.

Hello I have completed the LSAT and would like to unsubscribe to monthly payments but cannot find where to do that. Any help would be appreciated before my next payment hits

Do we get to view the test after the score is released (to know what went wrong) ?

How long should the LSAT Writing Essay be? The reason I am asking is because I have extra time (1.5x), and I don't want to make the writing sample too long. Thanks so much. #help

Been scoring in the low 170s and just cracked mid 170s with last test. RC & LG -0 or -1. Looking to improve on LR -3. Currently reviewing the Loophole again. Ideally, someone at my current level to counter my strengths and weaknesses We can reviews questions via FaceTime. I am in the Central Time. My study schedule is only 2hrs a day divided one hour in the morning and one in the afternoon. Please reach out to me if interested.

I am just about done the CC and I write in August -- what prep tests should I focus on? And roughly how many should I complete before I write?

Use Five Star branded paper. It is thick and not see through. It’s only a small detail, but I hate seeing my pen marks through the paper.

Is the writing sample topic on LSAC's website (about BLZ Stores) the actual topic or just an example?

There seems to be mention of skipping questions in some of the tutorials. I know some standardized tests penalize more for a wrong answer than a skipped question. I'm brand new to the LSAT, so if anyone has any clarity on this point I'd appreciate the help!

I filed a test day complaint after 2 hours delay and experienced multiple connection issues. I’m hoping to receive a retake for June Flex.

Does anyone know if retake LSATs with released scores are on the same day as general administration dates?

Im currently working 25 to 30 hours a week while prepping for my LSAT. My LSAT date is in November. Im beginning to feel stressed and I'm seeking advice on whether i should keep working or stop working until i complete my LSAT. I feel that i don't have ample time to readjust mentally and physically between work and test prep.

Hi!

So I have heard a lot of people are able to work through the lessons/core curriculum pretty quickly and I would like to know how. I previously studied for the LSAT all last summer working myself up from a 147 to a 158, so I'm familiar with the basic, but wanted to refresh myself so I started from the beginning. I am new to 7Sage. I took the August 2020 LSAT and completely choked. After I recovered from that traumatizing experience I finally have the courage to pick up the study materials again. I plan on retaking the LSAT in August and November, but I'm not able to keep up with the suggest schedule, because of all the time it takes me to get through the practice sets. Is there a method you guys use or do you just skip the practice sets? #Help

I am at a loss for words... after countless hours and months of studying today was my day to shine. After a thirty minute delay and seven test interruptions I finally finished. Honestly, I feel absolutely terrible! I was redirect through seven different proctors and technicians throughout the course of my exam time. All I can feel is that my time was cheated! I don't know where to go from here. Is there a place where I can report this? Do I just cancel my scores? Please help!
