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?
I went from a 156 - > 158 - > 157. I have been signed up for October but thinking of withdrawing and going for Nov. or just completely giving up. I've been on a plateau for a year and my biggest issue is games and also test timing, I never have time for the last 5-7 questions. I was scoring higher this last time, but lsat flex proctor didn't know how to start the test for two hours and I thought I would end up missing the exam so I was very anxious. Will law schools take the highest score, how do I even explain this in an addendum, do I take again, will it look awful? I have a lot of questions and feel dejected.
I'm taking the Oct 3 and the deadline to push it to Nov is approaching.
My past 6 tests have averaged to a 168, (163-173-168-175-163-168). These scores are so all over the place, and with only 2.5 weeks left I'm inclined to push it to Nov to give me more time to close this gap. My goal is a 170. Any advice please?
Hello everyone!
Does anyone know what the differences are between the 7Sage PT Interface and the Law Hub Interface? I've taken all of my practice exams on Law Hub (in the exact interface we get on the actual test). Going forward I'm considering using 7sage's interface because you can take the exams as Flex exams (with the 3 sections) and I think that will be more helpful in simulating testing conditions for me. I just want to know all of the differences between the 2 so I am aware of them and remember them as I go.
Thank you!
Planning to take the Jan 2021 LSAT but havent even opened my book yet (had my heart set out for Nov LSAT). Within the last few months, life has literally kicked me in the stomach repeatedly. Caring for my mother's health who has been diagnosed with cancer, another family member who has been diagnosed with cancer. life is wild. I havent wanted nor had much time to study for the LSAT. anyone can give me advice or more resources for lsat prep. literally thinking about taking off another year BUT I do not want to wait until 2022 to go to law school.
possibly an accountability buddy?
hi all. i just saw my august score and to say i'm disappointed is an understatement. i've been studying full-time since april and my score was lower than any of my prep tests. it wasn't even that far off from my diagnostic.
i think what i'm most upset about is that i've spent so much time and money preparing and i feel like it's gotten me nowhere. i have no excuses for why my score was so low, especially since it wasn't my first time taking the test AND i had a good feeling about it after. i need at least 8 points higher to be considered at my law school choices, especially since my GPA is so low.
clearly i need to reevaluate my studying habits but i'm so beside myself i can't really think straight now. i'm just overwhelmed by how much i probably need to change up, defeated by the lack of progress and really anxious about whether or not i'll even be able to apply this cycle. i was signed up for october but i'm pushing it back to november now. i'd appreciate any advice/words of motivation.
Hello everyone! So I was slightly disappointed about my LSAT score today. Although it wasn’t too far off from my average (171), I want to maximize my performance and even try to shoot higher for November (break above 173). My PTs have been a little inconsistent, my range is 168-174. How can I narrow this gap, and what strategies would be most effective to achieve my retake goals? Thank you in advance!
For the August flex test, I got 164 again for the second time same as the June flex. Honestly I couldn’t believe it and stared at the screen for like 5mins blinking lol. It was very disappointing because I thought I felt much more comfortable with RC and it’s usually my worst section but it doesn’t help that I can’t tell how I did on each section. Weeks approaching the test date, I was PTing around 167 -169 with some outliers. I’m seriously losing confidence in my ability to improve.. I would really appreciate to hear some of your advice / thoughts on whether it would be worth to study for 3rd take.
For some more context, I have 3.77 GPA and wish to go to T14 school (would love to go to NYU or Berkeley as I hope to go into public sector after). I’ve been working full time at a consulting firm for 3 years.
Because I know my August lsat scores are supposed to come in tomorrow :( (technically today bc it’s late) is anybody with me ?? Feel free to talk about ur scores/how the test went for u on this post :( I’m nervous
Hey everyone. Does anyone know if the Webinars are still available on the 7Sage website? Please inform. Thanks everyone!
I started studying in August 2020 and ended up taking the August Flex, on the grounds that I'd take advantage of the flex format to practice and better prepare for subsequent tests with less panic associated with first-time LSAT experience, then use the score preview option for first-time takers to cancel (at that time it was uncertain whether future tests would also be flex, hence my decision to test with (1 month of studying).(/p)
I received a 164 on the August Flex and am retaking in Oct./Nov., but now I'm not so sure if I should cancel the August score.
Working under the assumption that I see an improvement in future scores (regardless of validity of such claim) and that my ultimate goal is 170+, is it better to cancel? Below would be two ideal situations (there's also the possibility that I cancel and score lower, but considering only the upside first), but I'm unsure if there is any nuanced difference in the expected return:
(1) first score canceled, second score 164+ score, done with LSAT
(2) first score 164, second score 164+, done with LSAT
So the difference would be having a 164 somewhere on my application in addition to a second score, or simply having one score I'm satisfied with and one shown as canceled.
I'm aware that Law Schools only look at the highest score, but that the more retakes there are, the less credit given by Law Schools to succeeding scores. I was wondering maybe cancelling a score would offset to an extent the impression of multiple retakes/not starting out with a higher score, or maybe this doesn't matter...
Any input would be appreciated! Thank you for your time.
Hi! Taking both the October and November tests, and still really struggling with consistency on both RC and LR. I am looking for a tutor within the 7sage community who is willing to work with me at least 2-3 times/ week, starting as soon as possible.
Let me know!
Hey all, I was scoring higher on PTs but got a 154 on the august. I'm thinking of retaking just for a chance for some better scholarship money from my schools. I know I'm ok with my 154 but I want that extra chance. I am thinking of registering for November and then scores release on Nov 24th. Is this a decent amount of time to rack up a few points more hopefully and apply? Do I need to cancel my August score (I got score preview) or just do a retake? I'm assuming I just sign up for another one to retake and the other score will be available on apps.
170 lsat, 3.9 gpa
What are my chances of getting a scholarship at a top 20 school?
I took a PT cold and tested at 153 a few months ago and got 167 on August Flex after using Blueprint and 7Sage. I'd like to get into a T14 preferably with scholarship money (or even T20 with full ride). Do you think this score is high enough? I'm 35 years old, have MBA and a decade of professional experience, 3.86 undergrad GPA, non URM (Asian).
So I am signed up for the oct LSAT but honestly might want to wait until November to take it. I saw on their website that you can opt for a voucher that is good for any lsats from nov 2020- april 2021. Does anyone know how to notify the LSAT to let them know that you want the voucher?
Will we get notified when our course is expiring and when we need to make the next payment? @"Juliet --Student Service--" - Thank you in advance!
Hello everyone, I was just wondering if anyone could offer some advice on what I should do. I got a 150 on the August lsat, and would really like to improve towards the low 160s, I have the option to cancel my score and don't know if I should. Also, I am thinking of either taking the November or January exam, but feel like I do not have that much time for the November as I am in school full-time right now. What do you guys think?
heyy guys,
august test takers here we are one day away from score results..my writing STILL HAS NOT BEEN APPROVEDD!
i took it on september 6th and it still says results pending. i contacted them about it and all she said was "yeah we are trying to get to all of them before friday" okay thx lol
anyone else in the same boat?
[I am posting on behalf of a 7Sage user:]
If there is a sentence that has words from 2 different groups in lawgic, for example, Beth Cannot (group 4) go to the store without (group 3) Tim. Do i have to negate both ideas? and how do I find which is the sufficient? I hope this makes sense!
How can I access the practice tests on 7sage? I have a free account.
Hi Guys,
I am wondering if I can change the BR answer from my finished PT to a new one? Is it possible to do this without creating a new copy of the PT, but just directly replacing the old answer?
Thanks!
Hi,
I finished a PT and the result showed as tho I'd left a bunch of questions blank, which I hadn't, then I sent a msg to tech support to 7 sage, and did the same PT again, the same thing happened but this time the error started with an earlier question, it even said on the results section where the error started and from that question onwards none of my answers were recorded, now the discussion page is glitching for me, I tried a different browser and same thing. Have you experienced this? I wonder if it's an error on my end of 7 sage's software, I hope it can be resolved soon so I can resume studying. I hope I will hear from 7 sage soon.
Thank you!
So I just scored a 161 on PT 63, and this is honestly the equivalent of a 170 plus for me. I Know this level of score will almost certainly get me into a Canadian school and that's all that matters to me at the end of the day.
This came after four months of studying basically full time. After starting off with a 144 diagnostic. Yet, I can't shake the feeling it's a fluke somehow? I can't help but feel maybe I got lucky. Which doesn't seem to be the case because my past three PTs have been 158, 158 and now 161.
From the very beginning I've been doubting myself. Telling myself I'd be happy with a 155, just to have some chance.
Anyone else experience this sort of self doubt and how did you crush it?
I'm tired of part of me thinking I'm not good enough to well on this test. What can I do?
