Hi, I wonder if the Aug lsat count to the seven times test taking limit?

Hey everyone, I planned on purchasing the Ultimate+ month by month course but was wondering what the Bundle Prep Plus is and if it is worth adding to my purchase? Does it provide anything else worth purchasing? Thanks everyone!

"What is the best strategy to take notes on RC during the LSAT Flex? How do I keep track of what passage or word I am referring to in the notes if I write it in a scratch paper?"

I saw on the lsac website that we could receive a voucher for a future lsat if we opted too. Does anyone know how to go about asking for a voucher? This is the number listed on the LSAC website 215.968.1001but every time I call I get a busy tone... Is anyone else having this same issue?

I still don't have a writing portion done on the lsat, I was wondering if anyone had any tips, or helpful videos for doing this portion.

This is not LSAT/Law School related but I thought I'd ask here to see if anyone has any thoughts. I am applying to Boston College School of Social Work so I can hopefully do a dual MSW/JD. Under the Work Experience section it asks you to list professional, volunteer, or teaching experience. I'm wondering if since this is all it asks for on the application if on my resume I should also omit retail/restaurant experience. Thanks!

I was running on average of 158 on my practice tests, but woke up Friday to see a 154 on my August 2020 LSAT Flex. Needless to say, I'm disappointed. I have an LSAC fee waiver, so I've already gone ahead and signed up for the November exam. I'm wondering two things:

a) Should I cancel my 154 with score preview and apply early with my LSAC applications indicating that I'm retaking in November or should I KEEP the 154 score on my file with the indication that I'm retaking in November? I know that either way they won't review it until the new score comes through, but I feel this anxiety about waiting until literally late November to send the applications, and there's always the chance that I could bomb the November test even worse. It may be irrational, but I can't get it out of my head. Hopefully that makes sense.

b) Perhaps more importantly, does anyone have any general tips for retaking? I studied for months before the August test, and saw myself improve drastically from a 150 on my first prep test. I know I'm cutting it close buckling down on studying to retake in November, but I do already have months of practice behind me. The problem is that I clearly didn't do it right the first time. I am really strong in Reading Comprehension, fairly strong in Logical Reasoning, but consistently struggling with Logic Games. I just can't seem to crack them, no matter how much I practice. I'm pretty sure I missed every single answer on one of the Logic Games on the August exam.

That was lengthy, I know, but if anyone has any tips, I'd appreciate it.

"I have a strange question and some unique circumstances, and I would appreciate your discernment. I am an active duty air force officer, and I purchased the premium package last year (planning on testing this past spring and fall).

Here's the meat of my question- when should I plan to prep for the LSAT? I want to devote at least 6-12 months preparing rigorously, but I chose not to do that this year as soon as I found out I couldn't apply for this fall. My fear is that I will prep for 12 months, rock the lsat, only to have a score I can't use for another 7 years (therefore making it irrelevant).

My premium membership I was grandfathered into expires next week, and I do not know whether to extend, choose to prep for a year, test, and save my scores for 5 years, or if I am better off losing my membership, and restarting once I receive career-field release.

Do you have any thoughts on this? Will a score that is 3 or 4 years old look bad?"

I’m a US citizen/have a US home address etc but just moved to the UK to start grad school for a year. I took the August LSAT Flex in the US, but want to register for the November LSAT-Flex. November is not offered in the Europe region though!

Is the testing region based upon where you are located when taking the test, or where you are from? Could I register for the November LSAT (US region) even though I’m taking it in the UK?

More backstory:

I did register for October though so will take that test if I can't register for November. Ideally, I want to take it in November rather than October because I'll have more time. I got a 169 on the August LSAT (I'm grateful for the score), but know that I can do better (based upon my avgs), but think I'll need more time than 2 weeks.

Hi there! I'm looking to opt-out of the October LSAT (which I'm currently registered for) and get a coupon for the November LSAT instead. I've been navigating through the LSAC website to figure out how to do this, but to no avail! Does anyone know how to make this switch?

Just as noted in the title. I had been scoring in the low-mid 160s, then scored a 170 last week. Since then, I have been scoring in the 150s over the last 3 prep tests I've taken.I've been doing about one a day in the last week since I am taking the LSAT in October. Idk what is going on or how to fix this. I felt like I had a sound grip on the fundamentals and now cannot seem to get back on track. Any and all advice is appreciated

So you didn't score how you wanted to on the August Flex, and you're feeling discouraged?

That's alright.

I want to share a little quote-perhaps a corny one, but a meaningful one no less- from the Rocky movie: "It's not about how hard you can hit, it's about how hard you can get hit and keep moving forward."

Maybe your score delt you a blow, but that's not going to define you. What's much more important, is how you respond to that blow, how you proceed from here.

So dig deep and remember why you set out on this difficult path. Why you dared to dream to be a god damn attorney. Remember what you've been through already and let that fuel you, let it push you forward.

Let's get back up, and let's crush the ever living shit out of this test, and let's manifest those dreams.

I want to rant with someone about the LSAT. I've gotten to the point that my brain doesn't want to receive any more info. My head feels congested. Don't want to be weird but finding someone that wants to talk about this on a phone call cuz I need a verbal rant.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this...but upon hearing the RBG news I actually cried. A symbol of integrity, tenacity, and righteousness for all. I figured since we're all aspiring lawyers, others might be feeling the same way about her.

I read someone else say this on twitter, and found it worth reposting:

"Her rest is earned. It is our turn to fight."

Thanks endlessly to an eternal legend.

I'm consistently doing 10-ish points worse under timed conditions (I feel rushed, panic and miss stuff I know). What's the normal difference between the two? Do I have room to improve by the October Flex? tips to not freak out under time constraints?

is there anyway to get in contact with someone at 7sage today? since it is a Saturday

As I sit here stunned by my LSAT growth on the August Flex, I wanted to give motivation to anyone out there who is trying to study for an exam less than 3 months away. So many people will tell you you're crazy or it can't be done in less than 6 months and I let that get to my head a lot. I know a 158 isn't the score I see people dreaming of on these posts but for someone who studied for 3 months and improved 17 points... I'd say I'm pretty proud

For reference- I started my LSAT journey in May, planning to take it in July. I was using Khan Academy and was working at the time so I wasn't holding myself to a rigorous schedule. Barely even breaking 150 by the end of June I realized I needed to make a change. The r/LSAT subreddit recommended 7Sage as a cost effective and efficient study plan. I decided to push my test back to August and committed myself to full time studying about 5 hours a day, completing a lesson a day, starting in July. I obviously skimmed some lessons and would only complete practice sets if I didn't feel comfortable with a topic. I didn't take any practice tests and just grinded through the CC for 1.5 months. My first practice test after completing a good amount of the CC was a 156. From there I only took maybe 5 more practice tests in the 2 weeks leading to my August test. I was very discouraged, I only started 7Sage 2 months before my exam and everything I was reading said I was doomed for failure.

Only on one PT I got a 159 but the rest of them ranged from 151-156. I felt so good on test day, Logic Games became my greatest strength through 7Sage but reading comp was hard since I didn't have enough time to practice it as I did for LG and LR. I figured my score could go either way so to say I was ecstatic seeing I got a 158 would be an understatement.

My biggest advice to anyone planning to study in less than 3 months- remember that it IS possible. Everyone learns and improves in different capacities. If you're using 7Sage or any other study plan, I recommend reviewing every lesson but only honing in on practice sets on lessons you don't feel too good about. I know everyone says practice is key and you have to do 15+ PT before test day but that's not necessarily true. Play to your strengths. I found conceptualizing lessons and understanding what a right answer looks like in every context was crucial to my understanding, and not necessarily practicing.

Thank you 7Sage, I cannot recommend this LSAT prep course enough. Thinking like JY was truly a game changer on test day. Good luck to everyone out there going through the LSAT process. It's rough but just know that sometimes the time you put in is not as important as the quality of your study hours.

hi all. i've been studying full-time for this test since april. my diagnostic was a 150 and after all these months my average is hovering around a 159. in fact, it's been hovering around that since i finished the core curriculum and i haven't really seen any improvement. the thing is that recently my BR scores, which earlier would stay the same or be BELOW my timed scores, are skyrocketing. my BR score went from 160, to 165, to 169, to 172 just now. this is a pretty big disparity and i'm just confused as to why my timed scores are still bouncing around from 157, to 161, to 158, etc. i was told earlier that scoring high during blind review is good because it shows your potential/how much you really understand the test, but i'm starting to wonder how effective it is if my timed scores aren't budging. i'd appreciate any insight on this.

just as a note, i think a 159/160 is a good score, but given my low GPA i need to be in the high 160s to get in anywhere. thanks in advance.

Got my August score back and it was 7 points under my PT average and is not even good enough to apply. I am signed up for November and am wondering where to go from here. I understand the fundamentals of LR, am good with LG, and am restudying/drilling RC. While I understand LR, I've noticed lately I take longer to understand the stimulus so any tips are welcome.

I was thinking to drill LR/RC until the first week of october, then take 2 pts a week with thorough blind review every week until November. any help is welcomed and appreciated!!!

Hey everyone, I'm not here to make a lengthy post or anything but I just wanted to share that yes, it is possible to improve. I was stuck on this test for so long. Keep pushing and keep a positive attitude. Doing those two things while following J.Y.'s lessons have literally transformed my life. You all can do it!

I know im not a member of the 170 club but i think a 27 point jump from my diagnostic to my actual LSAT warrants a post! Took a lot of time and work but thanks to everyone on 7 sage and our lord and saviour J.Y ping, i hit my target score! To give back to the community that gave me so much, I'd like to offer some people help with LG and just give advice and study tips on how i achieved my goal! Thanks again everyone and good luck

I was given a coupon for a free test from LSAC that I used to sign up for the October administration. Upon seeing my August LSAT score I need to postpone my test. LSAC's website says a refund will not be issued if I withdraw though.. does this mean my coupon goes out the window and I have to pay for the November test? Kinda confused

Hi people,

So I got a 154 on the August flex and need to raise this at least three points by November

Games are my weakest section, I'm averaging around -9 or so. This is despite having foolproofed all games from PTs 1-35, in addition to FPing games from 10 other PTs.

Basically, I'm curious whether buying the powerscore bible right now is going to confuse me by giving me a new system this latw in the game (I'm very used to setting things up as J.Y does).

There other option is to keep drilling games the same way and hope to start seeing that infamous "click" people talk about.

I'd appreciate any advice.

Really quickly I just wanted to hop on and say thank you JY so much for creating 7sage. It was definitely the reason I was able to improve so quickly. I was working full time and studying for about two hours a day. The video lessons, explanations, and problem sets were so easy to follow and the app made fitting in lessons so easy. Congrats to everyone who took the August Flex!

I am taking the October LSAT in two weeks and am wondering how people generally spend the last few weeks of studying. My target score is 174 and my PT range has been from 170-174. I usually am either -0 or -1 on LG, -2/-3 on LR, and then RC ranges anywhere from -2 to -6. Is the best way to go about this doing full practice tests or should I just be focusing on doing RC problem sets?
