Hello everyone just finished LR in the CC. I feel like I have a really good understanding of the LR material and exactly what im supposed to be doing for every question type. Even took an untimed section just to solidify this, missed a few and was confused but reviewed and went a revisited some concepts. Now I am on to the reading comp section and need some tips. I don't want to do all the reading comp and have this LR loose steam or forget stuff. Should I be doing weekly drills with LR? also don't want to go through to much material? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Should I always be reading all of the answer choices? There are some questions in both logical reasoning and reading comp where I see one of the first answer choices and feel like that has to be the right answer. However, sometimes I end up finding a better answer or one that makes me question whether or not it is the right answer. Other times, it turns out that is the right answer, and then I think about how I wasted 10-30 seconds. I struggle to finish the test in time, and sometimes I don't get to answer all the questions, and I have to guess. Is it worth it to just go with it and risk it being wrong? This might give me some extra time on harder questions/ to finish the test. But statistically, does this approach work? Or is it better to take a little longer to guarantee I got the question right?
I will be trying this approach and using the Blind review to see if the odds are worth it, but I want to know if that's a waste of time.
I took my diagnostic in January. Since then I have studied a little and taken two more PTs. While I have been reviewing my wrong answers I haven't really been committed to studying since I am taking the summer to do so for the August test. I took a PT each month just to build a stamina but was surprised when I jumped up 6 points on the second and then 6 more on the third. I am having some imposter syndrome since I haven't studied the way I should be to getting those jumps. Is this random luck? Was my diagnostic just lower than I was capable of? Is this normal for beginners?
Hello everyone!! Does anyone have any information on taking the international LSAT? Is it the same exam and does it look ok on law school applications?
I am thinking about moving abroad for a year before attending law school (a life long dream of mine), however I'm worried about taking the LSAT and if taking the international test is a good idea? From my understanding if you're not psychically in the US or Canada you can't take the regular exam and need to register for one of the specified international dates, so this would be my only option if I chose to go. This is probably a niche question, but any insight would be helpful. Thank you!!
Hey all! I have recently joined the course and I finished the Grammar section in the syllabus today. I am wondering if this is a good time to start doing the drills or should I wait till I finish all of the foundations sections? Thanks and happy studying!
Curious if folks at this point are having issues scheduling their April test? For days, I’ve been having “No Available Times” and LSAC has told me to reach out to Prometric who hasn’t gotten back to my request from the “Contact Us” page. Bueller?
7Sage will be temporarily unavailable while we upgrade our services.
Eastern Time: 6:30am Friday, March 28
Pacific Time: 3:30am Friday, March 28
The site will be available again in two hours, hopefully less.
If you were affected by the recent outage from 12:10am to 2pm ET on March 27th, we are very sorry for that. This was due to an issue with a third-party service provider. This scheduled maintenance will prevent that from happening again.
Please avoid doing a PrepTest or Problem Set near this time so that your work is not interrupted. Sorry for any inconvenience!
I took the lsat for the first time and got a 136.. super sad
Hi guys,
I was wondering if proctored PT classes are gonna make a comeback (I recall they used to be done on Saturdays or Sundays in the afternoon)?
she was cute as a button. her and henry were debating normative statements on the last 7sage podcast she was on and she gave some very clever response to one of his points. it was toward the end of the episode, something about "just because i can doesnt mean i should" or something like that
Took a diagnostic test with no studying and scored a 157. Did the foundations section and then scored a 158. Then about half way through the LR curriculum I scored a 153. Scared to take another test and see results drop or not improve. Has anything like this happened to others and how did you deal with it?
I heard that someone had a list of all valid and invalid argument forms. If someone knows where that is, please drop a link
Simple enough haha
For the blind review, will I improve LR simply by asking why is the wrong answer wrong and why is the right answer correct? Would love to hear thoughts on review and how that helped improve your scores. Thanks!
For context I have taken 8 full length timed practices and continue to score around 160, while my blind review scores have shot up to a 167. No matter how much I review in different ways or drill the question types I miss most often, I cannot get the scores to match or at least get closer together. I'm feeling like I'm out of options and my test date is coming up sooner than I'd like. Any advice on how to use my last few weeks well to close the gap?
I purchased this guy's course and there's no contact email or way to cancel. I paid $40 for a bunch of useless shit on the site that hardly loads. There's a money back guarantee but no way to even cancel. It's shady af. I am trying to get a hold of him to get a refund and cancel before I get charged for next month. I know he was once affiliated with 7Sage and he even recycled some of the content that's on here. The entire course used to be on 7Sage which is why I am coming here for answers. Can anyone help?
I've been studying for the LSAT since the summer and am taking it in June. I'm also currently in my third year of univeristy with a full course load, sports team volunteer work, etc. so I'm feeling a lot of stress. I know that's not uncommon when studying for the LSAT and that many test-takers embark on their LSAT journey while having really full plates. But I think the stress of it has gotten to me more than I expected. It's added a lot to my daily life and weighs heavy on my mind, it's something I'm constantly thinking about. Every grade I get back feels like the end of the world, like if it's not nearly-perfect there's no chance I'll get into law school and I'll be a failure. Every PT I do feels super important, like I need to show myself that I'm improving. I know I'm putting a lot of pressure on myself, but the LSAT and the law school application process just feels so all encompassing. I feel such anxiety about my GPA and my PT scores, it's impacting every other area of my life. Part of it is that I don't have any friends who are also taking this test, so I feel a little isolated from my friends, who are constantly asking me: "Why are you taking so long to study for that test?" and "Don't most people only need like three months?"
Any tips on not feeling like your life revoloves around academics and the LSAT?
highly appreciated :)
Hi!
I am working my way through the core curriculum and see that a lot of PTs now say that 1-2+ questions have been taken from them. I don't want to limit how many PTs I can take and also don't want to pull questions from the PTs in the new format so that I can accurately assess what scores to expect. Is there a way I can drill without pulling questions from the new form PTs?
Hello,
I just started my journey and wish to take the LSAT in august. I am still in the foundations yet when I do drill sets I get complex level drills about flaw questions and when I click explanation its like 17 minute videos and they say "as mentoned in the core curriculum". So my question is, should I wait to finish more of the course then tackle drill sets or keep doing them even if I havent learned how to solve them?
It'll help me in a research project designed to make 7Sage better.

I took my first diagnostic this past Saturday and wanted to know when I should take my next practice test. I have been working through the foundational lessons and was wondering if I should wait until I complete them before taking another practice test.
I had the pleasure of working with Yara from 7Sage, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and has a unique ability to break down complex concepts in a way that other tutors I’ve worked with never could. For anyone struggling with the LSAT, she is an invaluable resource.
The 7Sage platform has been instrumental in my LSAT journey, providing outstanding support and guidance. Working with Yara and the company has been an amazing experience.
Hello! I'm doing a late night study sesh on 7 Sage, and the drilling section keeps refreshing and reloading-- I can't even access the explanation videos right now. Is anyone else having difficulties?
Anyone have issues with this?
