If law schools typically open for applications in the fall, and decisions typically come out in spring, what reason do people that take the LSAT in winter/spring take it then for? I figure if I want to perform at my best then the best time to take is as close to when applications open as possible (making room for the possible retake if needed) so that I have the more time to study for it. But it seems like a pretty substantial portion of test takers take the exam in winter/spring. Is it just personal schedule circumstances or am I missing something else?

@ People who took the February LSAT or are planning to take the April LSAT.

Does anyone know how long a statement of need letter should be when requesting accommodations? Also, does anyone know how long LSAT takes for decision? Thanks so much.

I just requested assistance with LSAC to get a computer loan for April’s test and was wondering if anyone had experience with this? How many days in advanced do I get the loaner before my test date and would I need to download any software required by ProctorU, or would it already be set up for me? Also, would I be able to take a PT on the loaner before test day in order to get familiar with using it?

I am scheduled to take the April flex and have been practicing/will be taking my exam on my Mac. It is a MacBook Air that is using macOS Big Sur Version 11.1. I have seen some horror stories on Reddit regarding the use of a mac on the flex, but it is my only available computer. I just wanted to reach out to this community to see if anybody has any advice to try to prepare my computer to be compatible with the Flex/ProctorU requirements as much as possible in advance. Any advice is greatly appreciated... just trying to ease some of my tech nerves!

I did the score predictor from Khan Academy and was able to get an estimate of my starting score (in the 140s :( ). I did not do a full diagnostic exam yet. Is it absolutely vital to do a full diagnostic exam?

See you there!

Hi all, 7Sage helped with my LSAT prep so much! It was the reason I got a decent score. They are now offering affordable bar prep, which is so exciting. I am planning to take the July Georgia bar. I really want to do the MBE course from 7sage. But I am unsure what other prep course (if any) I should take. I am thinking taking the 7sage MBE prep course and then studying for my own for the GA state specific essays - but its feeling a bit risky compared to just taking a traditional bar prep course like themis or barbri. Anyone else on the same boat?

Does anyone know if/when LSAC will release copies of the tests from 2020?

Hi,

I'm sure this question has been posted before, but I'm curious how to use 7Sage to study. I think I want to take August 2021 LSAT. I am open to June 2021 but I am trying to be realistic. I work full time at a law firm. I studied for 4 months late 2020 and experienced burnout, so I took a break to enjoy the holidays and I moved to a new city. Once I got back into my studies, I got covid. I've had 7sage for about a month now and I just finished the Lawgic section. How does anyone recommend I use this program moving forward? I love it so far, but it seems like it could take me so long to get through it. Should I skip around? Should I jump to the sections I struggle with most? Should I dedicate 1 month to LG sections, 1 months to LR sections, 1 month to RC sections if do able, and then use the remaining months to drill and do practice tests? I'd appreciate anyone's advice. Thank you.

Hi all (administrators who can help as well),

I remember signing up for a webinar about admissions through 7sage. Where can I find the webinar link? I don't see anything in my email and I do not want to miss it.

Thanks for any help!

I know the analytics uses prep tests. Is there a way we can add individual sections to it? Say I drill the logical reasoning from pt 5 can I add that to the analytics?

a late celebratory post that i bumped up my score by 9 points in a short amount of time! it caused one of the schools i had already been admitted to, to increase my scholarship offer by $10,000 per year--a very real reminder that every point counts, and the lsat holds way too much power.

i had been PT-ing an average of maybe 162/163 by the nov. lsat, my first time taking the lsat, but i was nervous + holding my bladder come test day. couldn't focus. jan lsat, i felt super calm and i got lucky with an especially easy reading comp section, which is my worst section.

just throwing this out in case it gives anyone hope of increasing their score! i'd offer tips but i don't feel that great at anything other than logic games. the advice there is simple: keep fool-proofing. it really took me from ~ oct. 2019 to nov. 2020 to get consistently good where i'd miss 3 on average. my first PT, i missed 13. be in it for the long haul!

Hi everyone! I was stuck in the 140s for a very long time and am now scoring above the 150s. If anyone needs advice on how to breakout I would love to share the 7sage techniques that helped me!

I had a question concerning the study schedule. Do y'all go through every single lesson/quiz.problem set before moving on, or if you feel like you've grasped the material fairly well, do you move on with further lessons and leave some of the problem sets for later? I feel like I'm not studying as efficiently by doing all the problem sets before moving on to later core curriculum, and I feel like it'll help to go through all the core curriculum first! Thoughts, opinions?

Hi everyone! My name is Marium, I have been studying for the LSAT using the LSAT trainer as well as Khan Academy since last September. I recently decided to take a gap year after I graduate Spring 2022, so I'm no longer stressed about taking the LSAT this summer like I originally planned. I'm hoping to take it this Fall, and then possibly again in April 2022 (which is the goal date I put into the course schedule).

My question is, am I able to skip over lessons in this course? I feel like I already know a lot seeing as I've been studying since September. Of course there is much to improve on which is why I signed up for 7sage because I'm determined to get a score in the 170s range and I want to take advantage of as many study sources as possible. I'm a very busy person and don't know if ill have the time to devote to subjects in this course that I feel I'm already good at, so I really would love some advice on how to craft my study schedule as someone who has already been studying for a while.

Thank you!

See you then!

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

It would be nice.

I am moving on from the LSAT. I sat for the November exam and just recently sat for the January exam to increase my score, but it doesn’t matter what I get; I have to move on from this test.

I’ve gotten into three schools so far, but I applied to a fair amount, so there are still decisions to be made. However, by the time the dust settles, my account here will be permanently expired. My only desire is that I pick the school that is the right fit for me: T14 or not.

Throughout this journey, I had to continually remind myself that I’m going to law school to provide a helping hand by attempting to bring us all toward human wholeness and into the light of understanding. Keeping that at my core, It doesn’t matter what school I attend or what law I may or may not practice; meeting the human need is the reasoning behind this pursuit.

So, to those who will read this, I wish you profound success and clarity on your journey. Everything positive that can happen will, just not always how we expect it. Nevertheless, you will get into law school.

Stay kind, stay hopeful, and stay determined.

Thank you, 7Sage — I’ll see you all on the other side.

Best,

Aristotle

Hiiiiiiii ~~

I just took feb yesterday and don't feel super great about it. I have been PTing around 168-172 but am not confident in how I did yesterday. Usually LG is my strongest and I bank on -0 in this section, but I was rocked by a tough game (and also wasn't even loving how I felt about the other 3??). LR is also usually a solid -4 for me but I really don't feel well about yesterday's LR. There were a few questions that I couldn't quite pre-phrase ( ugh AND i even changed a couple of answers last minute which I neverrrrr do 🤢🥴). and of course, RC, sweet RC, the only consistency in my LSAT journey has been that no matter what, RC will always be a surprise for me. Yesterday was no exception. I had just recently gotten really scientific about mastering RC in the same way I had been with the other sections, but going into the test I knew that section had the most room for growth. Post-exam, I am feeling like my mechanics are good but that I was a little nervous and could've had better instincts overall, but especially in LR.

Seeking tips from people who have retaken the exam before. How did you reuse materials? How much time did you give yourself before taking the exam again (1 month? 3 months?)? Any other things you wished you had known going through the retake process/studying after your first LSAT?

I have been studying since May 2020, used a really great tutor but ultimately stopped once I got into the high 160s because it was really expensive, but really helpful. Used & loved Ellen's loophole + 7sage for videos, analytics, and occasional fundamentals refreshers. Goal score is 170+..... Seeking all the recs, tips, and advice. Thank you :)

Hey guys, wondering why the format used on the 7Sage Problem Sets and presumably the Practice Tests (haven't gotten there yet) does not have an option to reflect what the actual digital LSAT looks like? Talking about really small nit-picky details like the font and shape of the bubbles, but I still feel like these things matter when you are practicing. Does anyone know if there is some licensing reason behind this? Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone- studying for the April 2021 LSAT. Started at PT 50 to do a game section a day and LR here and there. RC needs work.

In factoring my allowance of how many tests to leave before April's LSAT, how many do you typically take, in terms of sitting through full PT in the lets say 3-4 weeks leading up to your test? How do you space them apart?

Looking for general opinions so I can create a schedule, appreciate it, thanks

Has anyone used a keyboard cover for the LSAT flex? If so have you had any problems getting it approved from the Procter? I had to buy a laptop internationally for the LSAT so I needed to get a keyboard cover to have the right language keyboard. Thanks!!

Hi,

Could someone explain to me what's the difference in usage of the Preptests 1-35 (Drilling Materials) and the Preptests that come after PT35? Are we supposed to take Preptests 1-35 as full timed-tests or are we using the different sections for drilling?

Thanks!

So far I have only taken the diagnostic and am half way through intro to logic on the syllabus. When should I start taking full length practice tests? I do not want to waste them if I am not ready... thanks #help
