Hi everyone! I had started studying for the LSAT in August but not that seriously because the school semester had begun. I finally have a schedule that will allow me to study seriously for the LSAT. So I know some basics but that's about it. Any suggestions on where to start? I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment trying to decide which prep course or books I should buy since they are all so expensive. If 7sage is worth it, I might enroll in it. What are your suggestions? Should I be buying other books or enrolling in other prep courses with 7sage? I've heard mixed reviews about Powerscore and some people have mentioned Loophole and LSAT Trainer. Any thoughts on where I should start would really help. Thank you!

If the test is similar to PT82, i'll gift myself a Ferrari lol.

I see many people always mention they do one section of the test, Blind review it, and then check their answers, I'm unsure on how I can do this on 7sage?

So I'm pretty good at the logic games section, and LR. Unfortunately, with logical reasoning, I see my mistakes but just...didn't pick the right answer, when I knew how to get there? I'm missing probably 5 on that section, 4 of which were dumb and I guess I "could have" gotten them right.

For reading comprehension I have the information I need to answer the questions, but still miss too many from just poor judgment. Any advice?

Hi there, I am posting because I am in a huge dilemma here; I wasn't aware that there were only incredibly limited spots for the test days, and when I received the email for scheduling, it was 1am my time and I was in bed then; I was just told by ProctorU that the only date and time slot I have left is the 17th and 8.30pm onwards. Additionally, I have only just got back to my home country and adjusted to its time zone, and have only taken tests in the evening twice: both times I scored 10 points lower than my average, so I was wondering whether I should just move my test to April and make sure I schedule as soon as the email pops up?

January would have been the first time I will be taking the test, but now I am not too sure. I am also hoping to hit the 170s, and haven't really gone past the plateau yet (still scoring anywhere between 167-173 on average). Thank you so much!

So I registered for ProctorU and did my equipment test and everything passed except for my RAM usage. It said I'm using 98% of my RAM and the max is 90%. I assumed this was because I had other applications open so I closed everything on my computer other than the window with the equipment test, and the RAM category still failed. Is this an issue that will prevent me from writing on test day?

Taking Jan and want to get a sense of what pts the flex is comparable to. Like is the LR like the 80s, 70s or 60s? Same for RC and LG. Has anyone seen circle, pattern, or just weird games in any of the flex tests?

If I get a test like 72.85.or

86 I will literally cry.

If you have a proctorU account (edit:maybe) you can schedule your test. Good luck!

Are there are announcements or rumors on dates after April 2021, and if they will remain flex?

Sorry, last minute I know... just decided I needed to get one done. But if you were looking for something to do or just so happened to be working on it, feel free to join in for a section or three. This will be the flex version. 5pm EST. Last 5 - 177, 174, 172, 176, 176.

I am unsure whether the flex will still be administered when I sign up to take the exam (aiming to take it april-may)

Should i be studying on print outs of the questions, or should i stick to the virtual questions, which would simulate the flex lsat more accurately?

Tips on switching between paper/virtual lsats?

Hey All,

I'm approaching the final 3 months (hopefully lol) of my journey and I'm wondering if I should be taking my full length exams in LawHub or 7sage? I want to take the exam in conditions that are as close to the actual exam but I'm sacrificing the all the cool BR/Data aspects of 7sage?

What do y'all suggest?

I was wondering if you all had any tips on how to stay engaged when reading long texts for the LSAT flex. When I read on paper I like to use my pen/finger to trace the words to stay engaged with close reading, but I am struggling to find a way to mirror this for the flex.

I'm curious why everyone here is interested in going to law school :)

I'll start– I want money! jk. I had a high school class where we took field trips to meet different professionals and I liked the prosecutors above all. At least on the surface, they all looked happy with their jobs and their work sounded interesting, especially the one in the special victims' unit. I also watch legal dramas, so my understanding of legal work might be a little too romantic.

Hi everyone!

I'm currently in the beginning of the course, and I am just curious if you guys showed a large improvement between your diagnostic PT and the first few PT's you took once finishing all the prep lessons offered? Or did most people just show gradual improvement as you took the PT's?

Thanks!

I first registered for the Flex in November, but then after scheduling my November exam time on Proctor U, I decided to change my test date to January.

In November, I received the ProctorU link to create my account and all - they sent me the email with my acct and temporary password. I'm almost positive I created a new password but now I can't get into my account whatsoever. Even worse, when I click "forgot password" it doesn't send me an email, so I have no way of creating a new password.

Do we get new proctor U info if we sign up for a new exam? I technically have never taken a Flex exam, but I definitely signed up for the November exam through Proctor U. Or is something seriously wrong on my part...

Hi! So I recently received an official diagnosis for ADHD. It has been believed I have had a learning disability since childhood but due to my parents financial situation could never afford a full evaluation and opted for extra tutoring instead. We think I have/had Dyslexia but some teachers also suggested ADHD so this isn't too much of a shock. The reason I even got tested now was because I found out my school gives student discounts on evaluations and COVID factors have heightened my attention struggles. It is too late for me to apply these results to an LSAT, but I feel at least validated that my struggles have not just been in my head. With these results, can I maybe get testing accommodations in law school? Should I bring up this information when talking to schools about learning environments? Anyone with similar experiences I would love to hear from! TIA!

Hi there! I am 2 weeks out from test day, and I am still experiencing widespread inconsistency, or random inconsistencies at times. My past 10 tests have been 176-170-166-165-170-168-168-169-170-168, and today, I got 161 on PT85, my worst in a long time. For those of you who are consistent in your scores, how do you do it? My BR has generally put me in the low 170s, but I don't get why sometimes my mind just completely blank and.I hit rock bottom.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hey everyone, my life has taken a turn recently. And at this moment I don't have the time to keep studying. That being said I plan to attack the LSAT again later in life when things cool down and I have the time to give it the attention is deserves. Thus, for now I don't want to continue paying $90 dollars a month for 7 sage, if i cancel but come back again later will 7 sage still recognize what I have covered, and where I am in the syllabus ? I don't want to lose my progress !!!

Anyone have experience with this ?

Thanks !

Hello Sagers,

I am currently going -7/8 on LR and I wanted to know how long it took y’all to get to -2/3? And if you have any tips on how to do this it would be greatly appreciated!

I do have an active Ultimate+ membership. I have reached out to 7sage, but I just want to ask and see if maybe anyone else is experiencing the same thing. I've never had to link a PrepPlus account (additional cost) to watch any video explanations before; my Ultimate+ always worked fine. I am mainly looking at logic games, which are supposedly all accessible w this membership.

Hi all,

Will law schools care if I take the Jan LSAT and apply in October. Would it look like I was trying to avoid the longer LSAT and would that look bad?

Hi All! I have seen a lot of people post seeking advice on their personal situations with the LSAT (to which many 7Sagers have provided great responses) and I have recently found myself in a bit of a pickle that leaves me wanting to do the same. This month marks a full year of me studying for the LSAT. I have increased my score from the high 140s to the high 150s (last three tests were each a 157) and my ultimately goal was to break into the 160s and ideally to have a 165+ score as my GPA isn't the greatest and I am really concerned about receiving money from the schools that I apply to. I recently had an unfortunate family situation that cropped up leading me to change my originally scheduled Jan test to April and am now facing some familial pressure and personal doubt about that decision. I worry that since I have already put a full year into this and have yet to break 160, am I just kidding myself in believing that I can do this by April? I already decided to extend my gap years and work full time so it doesn't really impact my application cycle to take the test in April as opposed to January, but I do still have a chance to sign up for the Feb administration. Should I just bite the bullet and take it asap as I feel like I'm losing the will to keep going or should I keep trying to break 160? I'm just feeling burned out and in self doubt at the moment and any advice from people that know what it's like to dedicate time to studying for this test like you guys is appreciated! (I also work full time by the way and unfortunately am not in a financial position to quit my job).

I have always been an awful test taker, regardless of the subject or however knowledgeful I am in those topics. I would rather speak in front of the class then take a test. With this test it has only increased my anxiety levels, has anyone or does anyone have any tips to combat this feeling. I feel that it is truly hurting my score and in thinking that i need a certain score to get into the my school of choosing is further amplifying that. Please help, I am taking the LSAT in 2 weeks, which is not helping :(!!!!!

(Hope this post is allowed.) I need a private tutor to help me jump from the 159-low 160s to at least a 170. Please send tutor reccs.
