Hi, I'm currently registered for the August 2020 LSAT and wanted to see what my options are. I have heard that law schools consider any applications submitted before Thanksgiving to be early, but I'm not sure this is entirely true. I would really appreciate any feedback!! I can definitely take it in August, but if taking it in October means an increase of a few points, then it may be worth it. Thanks!

I have been beating myself up on my LSAT scores. This is only my 2nd week of studying and I should be easier on myself; I got a 150 on my first practice and a 144 on my diagnostic.......I have a 3.9 GPA. Is this normal? I'm a perfectionist and I am really trying to get into a great school. Goal score of 163-167. Is this even possible? I just want to make a difference in the world. :/

Is there any harm in cancelling one's score? I'm registered for the July Flex, and am not scoring where i'd like to be... (I previously scored a 172, and am retaking it to bump it up; however, all my PTs of late have been averaging around 172, and i know i'm not where i need to be to make the increase i'd like).

On a related note, is there harm to retaking and scoring lower? I.e., will schools consider lower scores that come in after previously higher score, or will they disregard them in favor of the higher score?

Thank team 🙏

Once completing a PT and blind review, is there a way to access the questions from the PT (like we do in our lessons and blind review?) where we can see which questions we crossed off, etc.? Or do you guys recommend taking PT's on LSAC? Any info would be greatly appreciated!!

Hi everyone. I'm currently PTing at around 160 with BR at around 162. I've been scoring relatively the same for about a month now. After every PT, I BR, watch the videos for the questions I missed, take note of the question type, and drill those questions. I'm scoring the lowest on RC and LG. I take about 2 PTs a week and genuinely feel that I've made improvements after drilling - only to be hit with the same score every time. I'm also a little concerned about my BR scores being so close to my timed scores.

I'd like to increase my score by about 10 points, but I'm just not sure what else to do to get the results I want to see. Does anyone have tips for getting over this hill?

Hi! Does anyone know how to set the problem set timer to 35 minutes? I don't want to see my time going from 0:00 to 35:00 so the unlimited feature isn't useful. Rather, I want to have the timing set to 35 minutes to 0 rather than the 33:50 when I take full sections.

Hey there,

A little background on me. Started studying, full-time (forty hours a week) in November of 2019. I was scoring in the mid to high 160s consistently. I took my first official exam in January 2020--had a horrible test day and came out with a 164.

Started studying again, this time for about 20 to 25 hours a week, in April. I had five practice tests in a row where I scored a 174. Then I hit slump and my scores hovered around 170. I took the June 2020 Flex and scored a 170.

Looking to take the test one final time in August 2020 and hoping to score a 173. I should be able to devote 20 or 25 hours a week to studying.

I typically go from -0 to -3 on LR, -3 on RC (almost every time, which is frustrating) and logic games is a bit all over the place (when I'm in the right headspace I only miss 1 or 2, but sometimes have an off day where I mess up a whole game).

I've taken probably fifty practice tests, finished the core curriculum on 7sage, gone through the Powerprep books on LR and LG, and read the Loophole book for LR.

With only about 13 fresh practice tests, I'm unsure of how to best use my studying time headed into this last retake. For anyone that's been in a simular situation, what would you recommend? It feels like I need to refine rather than learn anything new so this go-around seems different than either of the previous two.

Thank you for any advice you've got!

Hi, so I am scheduled to take the July FLEX on the 14th and am not comfortable with my scores as of now. I have been studying pretty seriously since around January and am averaging 168/169 on my recent PTs with my highest score being 171(although that was a few weeks ago.) I used the PowerScore Bibles and Khan academy for the most part and only came to 7sage around a week ago. Since using JY's explanations for LR I have improved a few of my LR problem areas, but as I'm still averaging -3/-4 per LR section I know I can target a few more question types with a reasonable expectation that I can improve those as well. LG is typically my best section and I tend to average -1/-2, however RC has seriously been tripping me up lately. Initially it was my strongest section but lately I have been missing anywhere from 4-6 questions in a given RC section. My goal is a 173 and I'm wondering if there is any way I can possibly get there in such little time, and if so would it be more prudent to continue drilling LR in hopes of getting that closer to -1/-0 or to spend the majority of the time I have left to target RC? Has anyone had any breakthroughs in RC in such a short time frame? I'm definitely beginning to trip out with the test date so close and not having reached my goal yet. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!!

Powerscore said June 2020 flex was from Feb 2011/2012. Should we practice with older LSATS from the 2011-2013? Or will we have a brand new test for the upcoming July flex? I feel like there are slight differences btw 2012 tests and 2019 more modern ones. Thoughts?

Hello!,

I was going to take my first Prep test soon and I wanted to keep the stamina level as close to LSAT as possible. When you go to take a PT on the 7Sage website it only offers 4 sections and I was wondering how would you incorporate a 5th experimental section on the site?

Hi all, I am registered for the July Flex and was wondering if anyone who took the June Flex has any tips/insights? I am nervous about taking the test in my home and I've also heard some horror stories about proctors not showing up on time/not muting their mic and other technical issues. I also have been practicing on a tablet however now that we have to take it on a computer I wanted to know if that posed any specific issues for anyone? I took on PT on a computer to see and had a significantly lower score than usual, so I'm not sure if its just a fluke or if there are any strategies to taking a test on a computer vs a tablet I can employ. Also I am PTing in the low 170s and I generally miss 1 LR in one section and 3 in the other and so forth, so I am nervous about the LSAC only giving one LR section and doubling that score as it could either really help or hurt me.

Honestly any insight into the flex format and helpful strategies would be greatly appreciated!

Does anyone else think the JY sounds just like Michael Barbaro from the Daily?

I can't unhear it!

Is it recommended to do the core curriculum in order? It was my understanding that most people begin with logic games, however logical reasoning appears to take up the first month+ or so of studying. Is it ill-advised to go out of order for the core curriculum?

Hello, I seem to be having a major issue when reviewing problem sets that make navigating the site near impossible. The answer choices, question difficulty and stimulus difficulty info are completely absent and the priority and explanation video are located to the left of the succeeding question. Has anyone else run into this problem/know how to resolve this issue? I have reviewed older problem sets to see if this bug impacts them but they seem to be perfectly formatted still.

Kind regards

Thank you 7sage!

I took the June 2007 test in late May after studying on and off with Khan Academy for about a year and scored a 161 (at that time, my record was 165). I have been planning on applying this upcoming admissions cycle, so yes, I decided to cram the whole of CC in about 1.5 months. I finished the CC today and took the February 1997 PT and scored a 174. To be honest, I can't believe it. I had seen a few LR questions and one LG game so the score may be a bit inflated, but I feel like my reach schools are actually very attainable now. I have so much confidence in my abilities now and am excited to continue to drill and see how much I can continue to improve before I submit my applications.

Bottom line is that I want to thank 7sage and JY for putting together such an awesome and intuitive learning experience. Before I found this site, I was feeling defeated, demoralized, and demotivated at the slog it felt like I had ahead of me. Today, I know that I've put in the work and will continue to do so, but my dreams wouldn't be possible if it weren't for everyone one here.

Thank you!!!

Hey everyone. I've been studying for the LSAT for over a year now, and I was finally hitting 170-175 on a consistent basis until this past week. Despite having gotten 172/173 on my last several practice tests, I scored a 163 and a 164 on my two most recent ones. I'm taking the July LSAT in 10 days. Has anyone experienced pre-test drops in performance like this? I'm assuming this is due to test anxiety, but I'm unsure how to mitigate these issues because I want to keep practicing before the test. This time may be my last chance. Any advice is appreciated!

Hey,

So I started studying and using the LSAT Prep Plus interface to take practice exams before subscribing to 7sage. Is it possible to import my test results from my completed practice exams into the 7sage interface to take advantage of the Grader for scoring and tracking?

Thanks

Hey guys, so having signed up for a slot for International Flex with ProctorU, it seems like both LSAC and ProctorU are operating in US time zones.

In my case, for AEST, my available slots were between 6pm to 7am, and I signed up for a 7:20pm one.

I've never taken a night time standardized test, I've noticed that my timed PTs are scoring 5-7 marks below my morning averages.

Any tips on how to prepare for this kind of timing?

This was a very useful drill that I did everyday to warm up and I can't find it anymore. It was a long list of fruits that you hook up using conditional statements. Any help finding which section it is in would be appreciated.

Hi there!

I was scheduled to take the July Flex test, but after careful consideration, I decided to move it back to August. I have been studying since beginning of April (gone through the power score books and Khan Academy), however, I just recently discovered 7sage and have only gone through about 15% of the CC. My last 3 PT's I have scored 159. My goal is to consistently score between 161-163.

I am very close to having mastered LG and usually get -1 to -5. RC is usually around -6 to -9 and LR -6 to -9 as well.

I am feeling a bit defeated already with changing the date, but I do believe I can achieve my desired score with 2 more months of solid prep (with a little bit of help!).

Thank you!!

I found this article insightful as I am sure, at sometime during our prep, we will absolutely hit a plateau. Enjoy.

Hi! Is there a way to print the logic games section from tests I've taken?

I want to redo them?

#help

I used to be able to find individual PTs to buy, but now I can't find the page. Could just be my fault.

I have taken PT 81,68,80, 66 & 79. Are there any recommendations which ones I should include these last few weeks? I generally take one every other day. Thanks - (I'll cross post this)
