Would you commute 1.5 hours (3 hours total a day) if you got a 50%-60% ride? Or would you stick to a 20 minute commute for a 30% ride? We have a Chevy volt so gas really isn't a huge issue.

I am following the schedule of the for the October 2021 test. While reviewing the weekly curriculum I noticed that after week 5, I start taking 5-6 LSAT's a week up until test day. Is this recommended? I feel like it takes me at least two days to take a test, blind review, and watch/review explanations to any missed questions. Not sure I would have enough time to do that many in one week. Thanks!

Prior to 7Sage, I used Princeton Review and Khan Academy. Both of these resources did not limit their examples to PT 1-35 like 7Sage did. I've been working my way through the tests but I've found myself remembering portions or even entire sections of a test. Does anybody have any suggestions on what to do when I find myself remembering RC passages or LG sections or LR questions?

Hey all,

I have time to work with 1-2 more students a few times per week this summer. 1L expanded my ideologies about the test and its importance. More about my background can be found on the tutoring page here:

Update: My inbox filled up more than expected and I no longer have openings. However, I am always willing to offer insights about the test or admissions process via DM. Happy Studying!

Jesse charges 200 an hour, but has some really good reviews. Has anyone turned to Jesse as a tutor, and is he worth the money?

Effective July 8, 2021, the LSAC have introduced two distinct Fee Waiver packages to assist candidates of varying economic circumstances. Candidates who meet the criteria will receive access to the following, based on the tier for which they are approved.

Tier 1: Designed for the most under-resourced candidates. Candidates approved for Tier 1 will receive, at no charge:

Tier 2: Designed for less under-resourced candidates. Candidates approved for Tier 2 will receive, at no charge:

Eligibility for the LSAC Fee Waiver Program is based on the U.S. federal poverty guidelines, with different thresholds for independent and dependent candidates. In the past, for example, an independent candidate earning less than or equal to 250% of the federal poverty guidelines, and a dependent candidate earning up to 150% of the poverty guidelines, were eligible for the LSAC fee waiver, provided they met thresholds for cash balances, overall assets, and other requirements.

Under the new program, an independent candidate earning up to 250% of the federal poverty guidelines will continue to be eligible for the Tier 1 fee waiver package. An independent candidate earning 250-300% of the poverty guideline will now be eligible for the Tier 2 fee waiver package. Similarly, dependent candidates will be eligible for the Tier 1 fee waiver package if they earn up to 150% of the poverty guideline; if their income exceeds this amount, they can receive further consideration if their income combined with their family income does not exceed 300% of the poverty guidelines. All candidates will still need to meet other eligibility criteria.

In addition to creating the new tiered system for fee waivers, the LSAC is also increasing the maximum cash balances candidates can have and still qualify for one of the fee waiver tiers. Previously, the limitations on cash balances had prevented some candidates from qualifying for fee waivers.

The LSAC encourage students to apply for fee waivers at least six months in advance of when they plan to take the LSAT, so they have an opportunity to fully utilize PrepPlus, which is included in the fee waiver packages.

Are multiple colored highlighters allowed on the LSAT?

Should we be practicing with a 4th section to help us prepare for August test?

I just got back my June flex score today (since I delayed completing the writing sample) and am unsure whether to keep or cancel my score. This is my first LSAT take. I got a 156 and while it is within the range of how I've scored leading up to the test, albeit on the very low end, I was hoping to score at least in the low 160s since I have been scoring there, my last two PTs leading up to the June flex were both 163. I will definitely be retaking as I cannot apply with this score, but not sure at this point whether keeping it on file is worse or a cancel is.

About how long, on average, should someone study for the LSAT before taking the real test? Or, does it depend on how ready I feel via target scores on the practice tests?

Hi guys, I'm taking the test in August and live in NYC. I won't be able to take the test at home because I don't have a quiet place to do it. Wondering where NYC residents, if you have rented a place for lsat in this past year, have successfully (no wifi failure, not noisy, etc) completed this test at? Did you go somewhere outside of the city or just really far out in Queens, Bronx, or Brooklyn? Thanks!

What was that "flip of a switch" moment or piece of advice that dramatically changed your perspective of the LSAT or of how you go about your LSAT study?

I’ve tried different computers and different wifi and it is soooo slow.

Does anyone here keep an error log and if so do you use a notebook or on the computer? Im trying to figure out a way to create an error log on paper that's easy to use/helpful so if anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it!

Pretty much what the title asks.

Hi all,

I understand that a lot of 7Sagers fool proof games so they they can eventually do each game in a section at or below the time suggestion noted on the 7Sage LG explanation videos. I completed the LG section from PT 11 and thankfully got all the questions correct under 35 minutes. However, for games 1 and 2 I was under time, and games 3 and 4 I was over time (ex. for game 1, the time suggestion was 7.5 minutes but i completed the game in 6 minutes. for game 3, the time recommendation was 11 minutes, but I took 13 minutes). I wanted to know if this indicates that I have timing issues or if its perfectly okay and normal to be quicker on one or two games in a section and take a little longer on games 3 and 4 if that means I am finishing the section in 35 minutes? Appreciate your help!

Scored a 166 in April, it's down to 161 in June. I'm not even sure of what went wrong; I felt good coming out of the test despite a proctor interruption. Threw me off on the final bit of LG (had only a couple questions left on the final game) but I was okay for RC which was the final section - I just don't know what went wrong.

Has anyone experienced anything similar? I didn't expect to do this badly at all

So I started off with a diagnostic of 133..rough. Just took another prep test for fun even though I haven't gotten to logic games yet or reading comp, and scored a 138. Seeing that score made me lose major motivation in even trying to go to law school. Any tips on what I can do from here on out to improve? I'm signed up for the October LSAT.

Hi, I have just purchased the Ultimate+ with the bundle package and received a confirmation email but when I log out and sign back into my 7Sage, it still says I need to purchase a subscription. What should I do?

I’m registered for the August 2021 LSAT, where we’ll have 4 section with a 10-minute break between section 2 and 3. To prepare I’ve been doing full length PT with the same 10 minute break in middle. However, I find that my scores in section 2 and 3 tend to be my lowest and I do feel myself become more passive as I read. Also on the break I tend to close my eyes or mentally test but I think that could be contributing as well since the 10 minute break isn’t exactly waking me up.

I am considering doing 3 sections back to back to increase stamina, focus, and endurance. Do you think that would help amp up my focus in those sections?

Hi, so I was unhappy with my June 2021 LSAT score and have lost some confidence. Should I still take the August exam or truly try and prep for the October examination instead? Or simply take both? For some background info, the June LSAT Flex was the first exam I have taken.

My preptest formatting is off. It won't allow me to save questions that I am unsure about for blind review and I feel like taking preptests is a waste if I can't use the highlighting feature nor circle questions I was uncertain about. Can anyone #help me figure out this technical issue?

My untimed score was a whopping 13 points higher than a clean timed PT. It was 7 points higher than my usual blind review score. Other than LG, I didn't use THAT much more time than 35 minutes. Maybe somewhere around 45 minutes. Anyone curious as to how we can efficiently push through this moat?

I am confused on one of the lesson. Lesson 11 question 2 says that it's not an argument because the author is only reporting what the researchers concluded. Lesson 16 question 4 has the same scenario that the author is sharing what researchers concluded but yet this one does have a premise and conclusion. Just wondering how this is different. Thank you

Hey Everyone! I wanted to ask you all for advice. I recently took the June LSAT and got a 158. Since this is my first LSAT, I have the option until today to cancel my score but im not sure if I should. I've listened to most opinions and understand law schools don’t care much about your past scores and only need to report your highest score. I plan on taking it again in August with a goal of a 170+. So, is there any benefit for cancelling or keeping? I did pay for the score preview so I don’t want to waste money if there’s even little benefit. Would a single score or a score improvement look better? Thanks so much.
