Hello :)

I feel devastated after seeing my Jan Score and it was 151. I'm actually aiming for 175+ .. actually I'm thinking of cancelling my score. would it be a dig deal if I cancel my score? Do y'all think I can increase my score in 2 months? I definitely think I need more time but my parents want me to take LSAT Asap and finish it with high score but I want to take LSAT after my summer break which is like July or August

What do y'all think? Please vote or leave a comment! How long should I study?

I was pting 168-173 and averaged 170 on the past 8 pts before I took the Jan flex

My test day score is 9 points below my average. Should I just give up on law school?

I'm just so confused about my score... the test anxiety was really bad but this is no where near my average

I have a similar story to a post I just saw. Studied on and off for two years. Stress, anxiety, and lack of confidence really delayed my progress. Best advice is to keep on going. Admittedly, I didn't do things the right way but it worked out in the end. For example, I've only taken 4 full length timed exams. I scored a 156 on my first exam back in November, and opened up a 164 today. My advice is keep on working. I did each logic game published at least two times. Completed about 60% of all RC passages, and completed 4,013 of 4,831 LR questions. Let me know if you'd like any suggestions for each section, I'm more than happy to help!

I first took the LSAT January 2020 and made a 161. I retook last month and only made a 163. I've devastated that I only increased 2 points after studying so hard while working full time which is extremely challenging. My average PT score leading up to the exam was a 168 so I'm especially disappointed and surprised by how little I improved. Not sure where to go from here.

I'm absolutely devastated by my score. I've been studying for 6 months, haven't PT'd in the 150s in 2 months. Was comfortably between 160-170+ even on my worst days, and yet I have a 158. I have to apply this cycle and I'm just so crushed. I will retake in April in case it helps anything but I should've signed up for February just in case. I've had a horrible year and still dedicated hours each day on top of working full time and managing the loss of a parent to this test. I have a 3.9 GPA and have apps for schools across the T14 (as well as some safeties in case of this happening, luckily) but I'd love to hear from anyone whose had success at more competitive schools with these numbers. I have what I think is a fairly compelling story and wrote Why X's for each school, and will be adding an LSAT addendum to explain the impact of losing my parent on my ability to study and perform on the test (both logistically, trying to care for everything he left behind as he had no will, lots of debt smh, and also mentally and emotionally as he was a volatile person and its brought up a lot of trauma - although I won't go into that too much). I just feel horrible and I'm kicking myself for performing so extremely below my numbers. I'd been so consistent and I just don't know how it went so far left.

Hello, I'm wondering if I should still take the Feb test even though my PT scores are not near my goal yet. I fluctuate between 170 and 160 and I would like to be consistently 172/173. I'm planning to apply in a year or two. Should I take the Feb test?

For reference, I took august flex and got 162. Then have been just studying since. Not sure if it's worth it to take Feb when I can just move it to April and be more ready by then?

I want to preface by saying that I don't advise this method, but I was short for time.

I completed the 7sage core curriculum in about 2.5 months. Took 9 prep test before sitting the January 2021 LSAT. Saw my score go up by 15 points. I didn't quite hit the average I was hitting in my BR which was usually around 162, but still got a pretty damn good score. I guess my message is if you totally sellout and commit to doing better you will. I had a Mamba like mentality, I was literally obsessed with the test and it paid off. Keep grinding remember you're the catch and this test does not define you.

Ive been studying for the lsat since August my score has not improved one bit. I started 7sage in november and felt as though things were finally clicking.. i think i do well when i am practicing but when i write under timed conditions i do awful. I dont think its about working on just my timing either cause im not even understanding what im doing when its all jumbled into the test. Should i give up? I cant even hit 150 after all this time studying... i feel so defeated.

Lol I thought I would be free from the LSAT after January... Wishful thinking! I canceled my subscription and it was set to expire on February 3 (today) but now I'd like to continue it. However I don't see any option to continue being charged as normally, it just says it's canceled? Any help is appreciated! Thank you.

Hi- I'm new to 7sage so sorry if this question is obvious or already been answered. For about a month I have been working off of physical PTs and scoring them myself/ blind reviewing. Now that I have recently subscribed to 7sage I'm hoping to take advantage of the analytics by entering which questions I got right and wrong on these tests. Is there a way I can do this? Thanks.

How much does cancelling really hurt your application? I cancelled my first score and got a 171 on my second, but I am hoping to take it again to improve my chances at getting into a top tier school (Harvard, Columbia, UChicago). If I were to take it and cancel again, how much could that hurt my application? What about if I got a lower score on my third one?

Hi everyone. I just need to express this to people who might understand. I keep having minor but frequent freak outs about doing worse on this LSAT than in November. I also can't find much information on what happens if you get a lower score your second time except what I have already read on a previous post about schools just choosing the highest of the two scores to evaluate but it still gives me so much anxiety.

Did anyone else have a seriously deflating experience with PrepTest 81? I maintained the same overall score as usual, but I did MUCH worse on my LR and RC (typically my better sections) than normal and did better on LG than normal (where my score is usually bad). I take the real thing in 3 weeks and could really use some encouragement in the meantime

Could someone point me to a page listing how we can best simulate LSAT flex testing environment? (specifically -- breaks, what kind of scratch paper/whiteboards, etc.) I googled & found only proctoring software + sections changes, so anything a little more comprehensive would be super helpful. Thanks so much!

Hi guys,

I am in need of advice regarding what to do next? I have been studying for the LSAT since July 2020 and plan on taking the February LSAT Flex (potentially the one in April too). My past few LSAT scores have been in the low 160s while BR is above 170. I realize timing is my biggest issue and being a slow reader doesn't help. I think not being a native English speaker really hurts my RC reading speed. I usually run out of time before i can even get to the last passage. Has anyone been in the same position as me before? Any recommendations on what i should do next? What would benefit me the most to keep doing a PT every day or every other day or intense drilling on weak points? My target goal is 168+. Is it realistic to close the gap by February? I've been studying pretty much full time. Please and thank you!

Although my password is same, my IPad is not syncing with all the work completed on my MacBook. Even IPad’s avatar is a default while my MacBook avatar is my selected avatar. Even needed to redo all work so my IPad to match MacBook yet when I go back to MacBook, don’t wish to redo work from IPad. Is there a way to sync both devices?
