Announcement from LSAC:

More information about LSAT-Flex

Did 49.2 as the advanced translation drill at the end of Loophole. Timed but counting up without watching the clock (just wanted to see if I could apply the Loophole strategies in real time), and was able to come in just under time.

Set the camo review (first time trying it) at 8 minimum, and it shot back 8 sequential Q's. No answers changed. -0!

Now I wish I'd done it as a full PT! Not the biggest accomplishment, but feels nice after being maxed out at -2/-1 in LR for so long. I see concerns about compatibility come up from time to time... for me Loophole was a great companion to 7sage CC.

My goal is to take the August 2020 LSAT i would like to increase my score by 13 points. i would really appreciate any tips/Advice to do this in the next 3 months i usually study about 2 hours a day but just started really doing that in May. thanks.

Do you flag and come back to hard questions at the end of each passage in RC, or do you come back to them after attempting all 25~27 questions in the section?

Similarly for LG, do you attempt all games before coming back to a flagged question?

Hello fellow 7 Sagers,

I’m cramming to study for the JULY LSAT Flex so just wondering what questions should I focus on to maximize my points/score. Also any quick tips that would help that I can focus Mainly LR but really all sections! Thanks again.

I'm working through the CC and I frequently have time during the problem sets to BR any questions that I've flagged. I've been using the extra time to go back on questions I'm not sure about. There have been times were I have been able to clarify my reasoning for AC being right/wrong and reach certainty but when I can't reach 100% certainty it isn't due to a lack of time, but rather a knowledge gap. Given this should I still be blind reviewing?

I am concerned that I can get fewer questions wrong to get the score I want with the flex as opposed to the original LSAT. Does anyone know how LSAC has explained this? Thanks!

Hi everyone! It’s my first post on 7sage so here goes..I just finished my diagnostic test and am getting ready to start the blind review process. I haven’t done much of the core curriculum. When I circled questions while doing the test I found that I was certain about almost none of the questions. On one LT section I have twenty questions circled. Is this too many to be beneficial? Or is this pretty typical when first starting out?? Thanks!

Does anyone know when your LSAT scores expire?

Hi everyone! It was just announced that the July LSAT will now be administered online as the LSAT-Flex format. I was hoping that anyone who took the previous LSAT-flex administrations could give advice to us who are about to take it!

Here are some question I have:

Did anyone get a loaner tablet from LSAC for their May FLEX test? If so, how was the user experience? And was it easy to navigate and read comfortably?

At what point should you feel comfortable that you have "mastered" a particular approach to a LR question type, so that you no longer need to review all the answer choices? or should you ALWAYS read all the answer choices? For Example, in MP questions, if you find the answer choice to be "C", do you continue to read thru the other answer choices, or just select it and move on? Is there a difference to your strategy if you think "A" is the right answer choice, do you read all choices in that situation? Plz share any info on answering strategies to increase speed and accuracy. Thnx!

LSAC just announced it.

Hi everyone! I'm an international test taker. As LSAC announced today, our paper test in June is becoming FLEX in July. This makes me very nervous since I've never experienced digital LSAT. So according to your experience, what kind of equipment works best for FLEX? Desktop v. Laptop, Mac v. Windows, with a mouse v. without a mouse, touch monitor v. non-touch monitor. Any advice is welcome! Thank you so much!

Hi, I was supposed to take the 28 June test in East Asia but it's been switched to FLEX, and I'm trying to make an account for ProctorU for taking the FLEX.

When I try to make an account it says "choose an institution" but my uni's name is not on the list nor can I choose the LSAC as my institution.

How did y'all make your accounts?

thanks

Hi guys,

I am registered for the July 13th LSAT. (Today is May 27th). I am contemplating whether or not I should invest into the 7Sage course. According to the Study schedule generator, I would have to work 134 hours per week. There is a total of 168 hours per week. Assuming I sleep 7 hours per day that gives me 112 hours per week. Which seems impossible. However, I have been self-studying since August of 2019 and my score increased from my cold diagnostic of 147 to my most recent being a 160. I have also did the powerscore bibles on logical reasoning and logic games. I want to maximize my score as much as I can and I find the 7Sage course breakdown one that I could productively follow rather then just doing preptest over and over and not seeing much improvement.

Would it be a good idea/possible for me to finish the entire course by July 13th given that I have a moderately advanced understanding of most topics in the course but I feel relearning them in a different way will help me become more effective at the LSAT. Or is that just wishful thinking and I should just continue doing preptests and reviewing. Moving my test date is something I do not want to do as I am planning to apply to Canadian law schools for the fall of 2021 which opens up this coming summer.

Hey, does anyone know the possible situation for the June 28 international administration? I would be taking the test from India. Don't know if LSAT Flex would be offered to international students as well. Were the March 2020 international registrants shifted to May LSAT Flex?

Hi everyone!

I was just wondering if it's necessary to buy the LSAC 1year Prep Plus subscription to use 7sage (I'm currently still doing the 7sage free trial)? I already bought the most recent 10 Actuals book from LSAC so I have prep tests 72-81- is that enough or do I need to buy the subscription to benefit from 7sage?

Thanks!

With the deadline for the July test approaching in a few days... would it be best to take the July test as most likely Flex, or wait until August? I talked to a rep today about another topic and she mentioned that every single state has to be opened to go back to normal testing- all or nothing. I would love to hear from those who took Flex and the pros and cons!

Hi, looking for some insight here. LSAC Prep Plus has 27 questions on their RC. Every other LSAT prep service I use or refer to (ie. 7sage, Powerscore, Velocity) all have 26 questions, removing Q27.

Was just wondering if they got rid of Q27?

I have a question for the May LSAT-Flex takers who were signed up for the March or April tests originally. Did your photo carry over to the May test without having to upload it? Or did you have to reupload it?

For anyone who had issues on their exam where they lost time, have you heard back from LSAC yet about it?

does it cost money to delay your lsat from say july to august? if so is there a deadline?

Hello everyone!

Joined 7Sage recently and I had a question I would appreciate some advice on. I’m currently in the fourth year of law school (the semester is yet to commence) in India and I wanted to take the LSAT so I can enroll in a T-14 university. The Indian undergraduate degree is a five-year program, so I’ll be eligible to seek admission into law school only from 2022.

Given this situation, I would appreciate it if anyone well-versed with the admissions process could tell me the right time to sit for the LSAT. Currently, I’m planning to take the test in January 2021, but considering that I won’t be free till mid-2022, is this a good decision?
