I took a major dip from my last 5 PTs and overall PT average when I wrote in January (166). I've decided to retake. I feel like my fundamentals are solid (usually BR 178 or higher), but my strategy could definitely use some tweaking.
I'm a perfectionist. I've heard repeatedly that the best way to tackle LR and RC is by skipping questions and coming back to them. For whatever reason, I just can't seem to trust this strategy under timed conditions. I usually finish both sections with a minute or two left on PTs, but on test day I seem to second guess myself far more and my focus tends to break more easily (which is another issue altogether).
How do you know when to skip a question in LR and RC? How do you train yourself to feel confident in doing so?
I'm taking the LSAT this month (Feb 2021) and was wondering if I should do anything before the test to prepare for the essay (I haven't done any essay prep yet). Advice would be very much appreciated!
How to change the timer on the prep test for my accommodations
Looking for an affordable LR tutor on East Coast, maybe another person who's studying but excels in this section
Already have been studying for around a year and prepping for my second test, best way to use 7sage?
I didn't use 7sage prior but have heard great things so I finally decided to take the plunge. I have great foundation but I really need to hone in my skills and timing stratagies. What's the best way to use this resource?
Hello good people... I'm going to try something different this time. I've set up a coupon code on my booking portal that I'll keep open for a limited time today, and cut it off when I reach capacity. It'll be one time use and allow you to book a "standard session" free of charge. It'll be 1 hour... I usually go longer for tutoring sessions but for these we'll try to keep it at an hour to fit more people in.
Hopefully this will allow better access than my usual last minute offerings...
...which I'm also doing again as well. If you are free between now and 8 pm EST and would like to talk LSAT or throw some questions around, let's hit it! If this is up, I'm still open.
Code is: removed
Edit: Done for now so I can control volume. Will likely open back up later. Appointment for today is still open!

Anybody know if this site has prep tests, and corresponding solutions to the tests? I am not sure how to navigate the PrepTests under "Resources". it does not really seem to have the questions, but rather a way to estimate the grade when we enter our answers. Does 7sage have lsat questions anywhere?
hi all!
I'm getting back on the grind after my January 2021 attempt (I'm aiming to book for early summer maybe june/july). Anyways, my last PT was a 160 before I sat for the January exam and I was heavily using the recent PTs closer to my test date for obvious reasons.
I was wondering how everyone utilizes the different LSAT eras in their studying (ie 1-20, 30s/40s, 50s/60s, 70s/80s)? I have heard of many people using PTs 1-20 solely for drilling, but was thinking of starting there and doing (roughly) one PT a day. I thought this would be a good place to start to get consistent with RC & games, and then got thinking that it wouldn't hurt to dip my toes into LR as well.
I'd love to hear how others are utilizing the different PT eras for studying + what you found worked best for you - just trying to take a different approach this time around in the hopes of seeing some major improvement before the summer.
thanks & happy studying! 🤍
I have been getting LITERALLY every question in EVERY category wrong for the past 3 days. I know I have been busy and very tired from work (firefighter/paramedic). But I'm really starting to feel like I'm wasting my time. Any advice?
Does anyone have any idea when LSAC Is going post test dates past the April test? I’m trying to gauge my study time in conjunction with the upcoming application season.
I see the dates up until April.... but please tell me they're still going to administer after April?!
I just took PT 89 and did really well! It was a huge step up from my previous scores. I progressed about 7 points from two weeks earlier. Is PT 89 considered to be fairly easy or did I actually improve this much? I set the settings to simulate the LSAT flex so it only consisted of three sections rather than 5.
I'm confused since there has been only two officially announced test dates this year (without january). Will there be more tests after april one? I naturally assumed that there will be at least 5-7 tests this year like last year, but now I am getting worried
I want to practice more LR questions, but I haven't started the PTs yet. I'm worried that if I make custom PSs and they're questions from PTs then when I start taking PTs, my score might not be accurate because I might've already been exposed to some of the questions. So I'm trying to figure out if the PS questions are the same as some of the PT questions. Thank you!
Hello everyone. I'm looking for a private tutor who has gone through the 7Sage course to help refine my logic games skills. I've been studying for 8 months and plan on taking the April 2021 exam. I'm looking for someone who can devote an hour a week to help me prepare and give tips/tricks on how to study and improve my score in this section. The only requirements are that LG is your strongest section and you have tutored in the past (given on how close the exam is, I really need someone with experience who can make the most out of my time). Message me your rates/availably and we can go from there!
Hi, when opening the course page on my 2020 12.9 iPad it is just a white screen. Any advice? I tried resetting the device.
Though I'm inconsistent on each section, LG has consistently been my weakest section. For the past 2 weeks, I've more or less just been hammering logic games. I took PT 82 yesterday to reassess where I am and if drilling logic games has helped. It seems like it has! My logic game score is higher than it's been in a while and it was actually my strongest section (-4). However, this still isn't translating into any meaningful difference in terms of my overall score and getting to by goal of169+ because when I get better at LG, I get worse at RC and LR and vice versa. My score yesterday was 163, which is less than 2 points higher than my average. Just wondering if anyone has any advice?

I've been trying to link my Prep Plus account to 7sage for a while - I used the PrepPlus account on a different 7sage account before and just need to link it to the one I'm currently using. The link I got in my email to link my 7sage account isn't linking me properly, it's just redirecting me to my LawHub page. I've tried to link on both Safari and Google Chrome but it's not working.
When will sign ups open for the feb text?
Hey you all! I am wondering what you guys are doing for studying. I am almost done with the Logic Games lessons and I am curious whether or not I should be doing practice test in between lessons or should I finish the Course first before taking practice tests? Let me know what has helped you!
I have started to study since 2020 March. One preptest a day, 6 days a week most of the times. Got 163 in the first exam, but failed at second and third one 160-161. The weird thing is I usually get 170+ in preptest. You may say that is because you have done the same test set so many times. So I tried those new, that I have never done before, and I still get high 160s and 170+. I think the time management is the problem. I didn't even get to finish RC this time especially. As far as i remember the actual test day, I always spend last 5 mins for the last passage left, which is surely one of the reasons for the big disjunction between preptest score and actual score. So I am now trying to use some other tools and methods to improve myself. Any advice?
Like title suggests. I'm currently thinking about rescheduling my Feb to April. Would like the opportunity to retake in June, but am unsure if it will be the same 3-section format FLEX. The powerscore podcast suggested that it will still be flex, but I am unsure whether the entire format will remain unchanged. Would love anyone's thoughts!
Can my recommenders see my full LSAC profile? LSAT, GPA, etc.??
I don't think I can attach an image here but something changed when I go to where I take problem sets, the buttons and stuff no longer take up the full width of my browser and for some reason have been squeezed into a small vertical area, the same when I take sections, the actual screen with the questions is really small. How do I fix this?
It is the same with other browsers that I have tried.
