how do you flag questions in law hub and how many timed should do you recmmend before test day. I've scheduled 8. is that enough? I have the fundamentals in the bag, my average (untimed) is -0 RC, -2, -0 LG. Can I start taking full-pts. My main issues are seconding guessing myself and taking too long on a question and building stamina. I be sleepy!!!!

Please don't forget my answer on flagging questions

Hello! I hope everyone's doing fine with LSAT. I'm taking LSAT-flex in coming days. I'm wondering whether we can use ctrl+F during LSAT-flex (cuz I just spent one whole minute on one RC question trying to spot where one person's name was mentioned lol). I heard that they aren't disabling this function, but do they consider the use of this function as cheating?

I am too tempted to look at my score after each practice test to do blind review via the 7Sage interface (I still do it, but not in the streamlined and convenient way that 7Sage offers). Can you please add the ability to see your score (or at least the option to do so) before doing "blind review?" Thanks!

Andrew Woods is a phenomenal professor whom we worked with on our bar prep course, and one day, we had a conversation about what law schools DON'T teach. He told us that it always surprised him how professors jump right into the nitty gritty as if their 1L students have the basics down pat. He makes a point of orienting his students with a series of lectures on the fundamentals, and this one—which tackles the question of what the law is, at its most basic level—is the crown jewel. It's fascinating and it will change how you think about this profession that you're about to enter.

I'm unable to select problem sets with the new function. Help

Hi, everyone! I took the Feb LSAT and I was not completely happy with my score, so I decided to retry in June. I have had almost a month off of studying (which I thought would help me decompress and regain my energy to start again), but I feel like I'm starting from the beginning again. I know that it will require some more practice and patience to get back the stamina/momentum that I lost during this break, but do any of you have any advice or tips on how to get back into the right mindset? Any advice would be really helpful!!

are you able to retake a practice test? if so, how? I don't see the option #help

Looking for a BR/Study Partner scoring in the mid 160s! message me if interested!

[...] connection problem? There is a three day window for the scheduling of exams. Will they hear problems and allow retakes under certain circumstances?

Might be helpful in the LG section.

I've been studying for about a year and RC has always been my worst section (currently I average around -6). I've been mainly studying by myself but I feel like I could use some extra RC help. I'm wondering if anyone has tried Graeme Blake's (LSAT Hacks) mastery seminars, particularly the one on RC. It's 200$ so I'm a bit hesitant.

Maybe it's just me but also my honest feedback having been a 7sage student for months now. Some of these explanation videos can be frustrating. It assumes I have the same mindset, thinking or approach to J.Y. and doesn't even address remaining answer choices. "This answer is obviously wrong;" "Answer E is just crazy;" "once you figure it out C becomes obvious;" "there's no need to go over the other answers."

I mean they (wrong answer choice) clearly aren't that obvious if I chose it for my final answer.

You sure the answer is crazy? Cuz I was convinced it was the right answer lol.

It would be great, (especially) for LR if we get explanations as to why the wrong answers are wrong. For some of us, they may not be as obvious.

Hello,

I was just wondering if anyone knows any information regarding the LSAC Prep Plus Subscription and if I would need to subscribe to it to keep seeing PrepTests on here (7sage). I dont use the lawful.lsat.org site however I did log on to see if there was anything of interest and it says that my expiration date is approaching. If anyone has any information in regards to this I would greatly appreciate it.

Hey there! I am just wondering if anyone out here has tried the Camo Review method from Elemental Prep. How does it compare to blind reviewing in your opinion? Personally, I find it to be a better way to go about LR blind reviewing (and possibly reading comprehension), but I am curious if there are some drawbacks that I am missing that others have caught on to.

I could really use advice from other 7 Sagers. I've been subscriber and hanging out on the message boards since late last summer and I've seen this community give great input and support to each other. Can you help me make a decision?

Here's my situation. I'm a non-traditional student with 20+ years experience in healthcare administration, a masters degree (MHA) and a 3.0 undergrad GPA from 25+ years ago. I work full-time and took the the LSAT in February and scored a 153. Because of my life situation I need to start law school this year, even if it means going to a less than stellar program. I have no idea how schools will look at me since I'm not a superstar or even a splitter, so I've applied to a variety of schools (a T-20, several T-50s, and a few more down towards the bottom).

I registered to retake the test this Saturday and, for schools that offered, I've requested they hold off evaluating me until that score is available with hopes that I'll see an increase. But, my fulltime work schedule hasn't allowed much time to study and my recent PTs have only gone up by a few points (156).

So my question for ya'll is, should I cancel my test this Saturday if I'm not sure I can score higher? Even worse, what if I get a lower score - how would schools view that?

Giving a free tutoring session if needed! DM if interested!

Hi Everyone!

Some of you were asking when @canihazJD or myself would be hosting another BR session, so I'm happy to say we will be reviewing PT 77 this Thursday, April 8th, at 5pm EST!

All scoring levels are welcome.

I took Prep Test 87 on LawHub and did all four sections. After entering my answers on 7Sage and doing Blind Review, I got my score, but I'd also like to see what my score would have been if the second LR section were discounted (i.e. if I had taken it in the FLEX format).

In my case, I think the extra section buoyed my score a bit after a tough LG (Game 4 was absurdly time-consuming).

The remote version was harder for me because:

RC makes up a larger portion; not only did I do significantly better on LR, my 2nd LR was almost always better than my first (more warmed up, I guess).

I enjoy walking into a testing environment and feeling pressure to perform in that space. It's just not as easy to get adrenaline/energy up alone in the area I've been captive in for hundreds of days.

Reading on-screen can be an issue. Tracking with a finger on paper helps improve reading speed. Someone also quoted me that reading on screen is 33% slower on average. Circle back to point 1.

Chime in with your own reasons (disagreeing is ok, too!)!

Hi all,

I hope this isn't a dumb question, but I was hoping someone could explain to me their study process once you finish the curriculum and take PTs. I've taken 10 PTs so far, and I am seeing trends of things I need to work on... should I be going back to core curriculum and other resources or should I keep taking tests? What if I fall behind in the schedule that 7Sage sets up? I am supposed to take two PTs a week up until August. Any help or recommendations are appreciated!

Can’t believe I’m writing this but I just got my first acceptance of the cycle. Penn State offered me a full ride (including for the second and third years) and I’m beyond surprised. I’m an international student, so I don’t know much about it. It was one of my last choices when applying but after getting a full ride + reading about it online, I’m actually quite intrigued! I was wondering if anyone else on here was also accepted or is currently studying there? Would love to know what it’s like, what the town is like, etc. Thanks!

Whenever I come onto the forums and start typing out a question to ask for help, halfway through typing it out, I come to some magical realisation that I did not understand after the extended self-reflection/review. Whenever I write out my blind review answers for myself, I just rehash the same problems and errors over and over again and I don't feel like I'm coming to any new realisations. Is there a way structure my BR or trick myself into actually explaining things and thinking about the question differently rather than just rehashing/defending my previous position?

More information needed to answer this. The question I can think to ask is: did 4-5 sections have any disparate impact (on protected groups) that the three-section test resolves? If so, probably the longer form test will never return.

To be clear, I am asking about an LSAT exam with four graded sections. Feel free to add other questions or commentary on that point.

I just want to have two LR sections again! And on a related note, aren't they phasing out visual-based logic games? What is the timeline for that?

Specifically,

1.what is the difference between "question difficulty" and "Psg/Game/S difficulty"?

2. what exactly is Psg/Game/S difficulty?

3. what does "priority" refer to? Is it the priority for what the individual text taker should be studying based on one's performance or is it a priority question type for the LSAT?

I just finished my first LSAT Practice Test and I'm a bit confused on what to expect when I actually take the test.

So I read on this reddit post that the actual LSAT is 6 sections 4 graded, 1 non graded experimental, and writing section.

But when I took the LSAT Practice Test it only gave us four sections.

Then I find out now with COVID it's only three sections of the test, but then it's going back to the original?

What exactly is the correct answer, my brain is complete mush right now and I just want an understanding of what to expect in the future.
