I seem to be having trouble on my PT's keeping both LR and RC up at the same time. I've been bouncing around 165 on all my PT's (lowest: 162, highest:169). My best LR section is -1 and my best RC section is -2 so I know I have the raw capacity to score very well, however I cant seem to put it all together on one practice test and break out of this mid-160s plateau. It feels like I finish a PT, review what I got wrong and then the next PT shows improvement in that area but I lose ground somewhere else and end up getting the same score I have been getting for the last month. Any advice on how to stop this infernal game of whack-a-mole and club both LR and RC over the head in the same PT would be much appreciated. Any other advice relating to breaking plateaus is welcomed as well :)

Testing online

I'll be taking the LSAT online next week. I was wondering if anyone with experience could comment on what the room check is like? I'll have to be taking it in my living room, where I have books, a mirror, my kitchen etc. Should I take out books in advance? Not sure what to expect, would appreciate any anecdotes.

Good luck everyone!

Tips for Stamina

Currently getting great results on my drills but when I take and actual practice test it's like I lose all of the progress I've made in the drills. Does anyone have tips for getting my stamina up so I can do better on the actual exam?

I am preparing to take the June LSAT and have been drilling specific question types with which I struggle the most. This will be my first LSAT, so I anticipate taking the test again later on, and I am concerned that I am going to run out of clean questions for use in future studying. Is this something to be concerned about, and should I limit my drills of a certain question type as a result?

Blind Review

Doing a question throughout the curriculum, I don't see the button or option for 'blind review.'

Is anyone able to point me in the right direction?

I skipped the blind review of a PT because I wanted to see my score but didn't realize I wouldn't be able to blind review after it lol...

I still haven't checked my mistakes so I could still benefit from a blind review. BR score is just greyed out in analytics now.

Any way for me to BR now or is it too late?

Is there a way to do full LR or RC sections on their own, then blind review just that section without having to start a full preptest and complete the whole thing before being able to blind review? I just want to work on timing in individual sections without doing a whole PT

I took my first two PrepTests on LSAC before subscribing to 7Sage, but I was hoping to use the 7Sage Analytics without having to manually input each answer, especially since measurements like elapsed time would be inaccurate. Is there a way to import LSAC PT scoring into 7Sage Analytics? If so, how do I do that? Thank you in advance!

I'm gearing up to take the June LSAT in a few weeks, and I'm aiming in the range of 166-171. I've been consistently scoring within this range the past two months or so, and have on occasion scored above, the highest being a 175. As I mentioned, my plan is to score within my range for June (which I am fully confident I will be able to do come test day) and then really hone in my weaknesses during the summer in anticipation of taking the test again come the fall right before the application cycle. My goal score for this test would be 172+ to have a better shot at the more competitive schools on my list. If you have ever been in my position and have any advice for developing the ability to score consistently in the 172+ range, please let me know!

Printing out Drill sets

Is there anyway to print out the drill sets? Reading off a computer screen doesnt allow me to engage as much as I can on a piece of paper. I find myself doing alot better on paper than on a computer.

Need help on timing

I am consistently missing the last like four questions on any section due to running out of time!!! Any tips or tricks would be greatly appreciated. I am just starting to find an answer I like, leave it alone, move on. I am tempted to look at every answer choice carefully, but I know it's impractical. Help!!!

Diagnostic Test

Does the program have you take a diagnostic test first? Is the practice based on this score? I am new to the program and have not started it yet, but wanted to know.

Taking LSAT in January - really trying to break 170. I was pretty consistent in the upper 160s range, peaked at 169 for a couple tests, then decline decline decline. My most recent Prep Test was a 160 - worst I've gotten. I'm reviewing my wrong answers/reviewing content related to the types of questions I get wrong. I'm running Drills. I feel like I should be doing better but they keep getting worse. Any ideas?

For law school applications (and future bar admission), how should I go about what jobs I include? I started working at 17, and my first job I was at for really around 4 years, but I quit a couple times and came back, always on good terms and it was a normal thing at that job. There were some jobs after age 18 where I was at for one day, a couple of weeks, or just one week before realizing it wouldn't be a good fit, and I'd find other options. All retail and service jobs, and these short jobs were always outweighed by other jobs that were great experiences. I would just hate to get through law school only to get struck down by the bar for a resume issue.

Sorry if this question had already been answered. I’ve just started on 7sage and I’ve noticed the heavy emphasis on Blind review. However I have found that with BR (in drills and in the lessons) I tend to score lower or the same as my timed questions. On the Law hub library practice tests, I generally score about 2-5 wrong per PT section. After I check my answers I understand my errors, but during my own “BR” I tend to just over think and change my correct answers to incorrect ones and often don’t notice mistakes which in hindsight/during normal review are very obvious to me. I end up with a BR with a similar score or even more mistakes. So I have mostly skipped it despite the advice that it will help me improve.

So I wanted to ask if anyones run into the same problem, or what I can do to make the BR worth while (since it is so time consuming). How can I fix this pattern? Is BR just not right for me?

Who does the LSAC consider a "qualified professional"? I have a licensed professional counselor who, in the state I am in, is licensed to diagnose and treat, and her "expertise" is within my diagnoses. I'm getting ready to get everything together for accommodations, but I am so confused what they would consider.

Hi everyone,

Curious to hear how people are handling caffeine during LSAT studying and on test day. I’m taking the June LSAT (about three weeks out) and trying to figure out a routine that keeps my energy and focus steady throughout the entire test.

Quick background:

I’ve been drinking coffee for over five years, most days of the week. At the start of this year, I took a full caffeine break from January to mid-March while finishing my last quarter of school. I wanted to reset my tolerance and prove to myself I didn’t need it. Once spring break hit, I started drinking coffee again more casually, and after that, I transitioned into full-time LSAT studying and got back into a more regular caffeine habit.

Right now, I usually have one cup of coffee almost every day, and sometimes a yerba mate later in the day if I feel like I need it.

Here’s the issue:

On my first two PTs this spring, I had a medium coffee shop coffee at the start of the test. I felt great during the first half, but started to feel it wear off by the second half, and my performance noticeably dropped. I only missed one question in the first section, then missed significantly more as the test went on.

So for my most recent PT, I switched things up and drank a yerba mate during the test instead (along with a random coconut water because I like them). The yerba lasted me through the whole test and I felt like my energy stayed consistent. But weirdly, I scored lower overall. My performance was steady across sections, but not as sharp as my earlier tests.

Now I’m unsure what to do moving forward. I’m considering experimenting with matcha too, though I haven’t tried it yet for a full PT.

Obviously everyone’s body is different, but has anyone here tested out different caffeine strategies and found something that worked well for them? I’m not worried about the proctoring side of things—I’ve brought coffee in a clear bottle before and it was fine.

Any thoughts or experiences would be appreciated.
