    I started doing PTs a week ago and plan to take 4 a week (from 36 to 89) while doing some additional drilling the days I don't do PTs. This would be quite tight to make it before the July date (13th) and with COVID I do not know what the status of that is. Do people think it will be a FLEX or a regular LSAT by then?

    Additionally, the August date (29th) is quite far out and I would run out of PTs too soon before the exam. I am at a decent score but think that I could get better. I also saw there is no september date so if I have to cancel for some reason I won't have scores to start applications early.

    Would you recommend taking the July and trying to cram as many PTs as I can? (won't have any clean tests if I do end up cancelling this score)? Or slowing down to make it until August?

    Hi everyone! I did my free trial and I really liked it. Considering purchasing monthly ultimate+ and I am not sure what is this bundle plus? Can anyone advise if I need to check that box or not? Do I need to buy it in order to get the materials from ultimate+? Thank you in advance.

    I finished the CC and I have been getting lower PTs than before I even started LGs. I was getting -3s on the LR sections of the PTs but now that I have finished CC, I've been getting -12 on LR sections! It's like I forgot everything I learned..taking June test so I don't have too much time. Any advice on how to get my LR score back up?

    Just finished the starter pack. Diagnostic 157, first few PTs after the CC I was scoring in the high 160s but the last 5 have gotten progressively worse scoring 160 on the last one and I feel so disappointed in myself. BR is also all over the place ranging from 166-175.

    During quarantine I was studying ~45-60 hours a week but a few weeks ago I went back to working full time (50 hours a week) so I've been trying to study all day Saturday and Sunday, wake up at 4am to study before work, and study for an hour or so after work and I'm just getting worse.

    Between PTs I keep a journal of every question I got wrong and what I was thinking when I came to the wrong answer, rewatch CC for priority areas, and make problem sets of questions in priority areas I've gotten wrong in the past.

    None of this seems to be helping though. My best area is LG but I always tend to get 1-2 wrong from making stupid mistakes (although this last PT was such a stupid mistake I got almost every question wrong on one game). The issue for RC seems to be timing; it just takes way too long to thoroughly go through a passage while keeping different concepts (especially science) in mind. And for LR I'm constantly falling for trap answer choices.

    I'm so desperate to know what I should be doing differently and for any advice. To anyone who took the time to read this, thank you so much!

    Hello all, my 7sage account is about to expire and moving forward, I want to make sure that if I don't renew my account, I'll still have access to the things I need. And basically, all I need from 7sage at this point in studying is under the discussion forum and and the resources tab. I have a bunch of practice tests, so that's not what I'm looking for from 7sage ~ all I need is the videos that are posted for each and every question to each and every preptest. Does anyone know if this is a free part of 7sage? Or is it under the paid curriculum? Thank you!

    I think I might be spotting a technical issue in the curriculum. In the "Introduction to Logic" section, all of the video explanations for the quizzes do not play smoothly. They constantly stop and start, as if buffering. I do not have this problem on any other part of the curriculum in "Intro to Logic" or otherwise. I do not have this problem when watching the impacted videos on my phone. It also does not seem to be a wifi issue as my phone is connected to the same wifi, and all my other sites and videos are playing fine. I have cleared my browser's (chrome) cache. I am on a Lenovo laptop operating Windows 10 Home. Any idea what might be going on? It is pretty frustrating to have to open up only certain videos on my phone if I want to watch them as I move through the curriculum on my computer.

    Here is one of the pages on which I have encountered this problem: https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/quiz-group-4-translations-1-w-answers/?ss_completed_lesson=10107

    Thanks!

    I will be taking the June 2020 LSAT and plan to take it once more either in August or October. I have paid for the test itself, but I'm wondering when would be the best time to purchase CAS. Additionally, should I purchase the packages that allow me to send the reports to schools now, or wait until I have taken the test (in case I don't get the score I want)? Or should those be done after I take the second test so that those scores will be sent? I'm new to this whole process, so I would love any advice on this! Thanks!

    Hi guys,

    I'm new to 7sage. Although I've had an account for awhile (free trial), I finally bought the ultimate course level a couple of weeks ago. My biggest problem is timing. In my diagnostic test, I was barely finishing half of each section on time; but with BR, I increased by score by 16 points.

    I'm still working on the curriculum, but I was wondering if it is recommended to go through every PTs before taking the LSAT? If you didn't take every PT, how many did you take, and did you feel like you took enough PTs? Do you have any advice for determining when you are ready to take the LSAT?

    Hi all,

    I am new to 7sage and trying to create a study schedule for myself. I only want to create a schedule to complete the core curriculum (215 hours) but it's only giving me the option to create a schedule to complete 900 hours of material, which I assume includes the practice tests? Does anybody know if there is a way to adjust this? Any help would be appreciated! :)

    So I've been doing a few prep tests, under timed conditions and have seen great results. The past 3 i've taken were a 161, 163 and 165. However, I took one today without feeling 100% focused and got a 157, a decently sized step backward. I was wondering if anyone else has ever run into this, and how you dealt with it

    Hi 7sage!

    I'm doing timed PTs now and so far I have done 4. I am having such a hard time with timing as right when the timer hits I get stressed and anxious and I just can't seem to do well under timed conditions. Feeling rushed and under pressure takes away so much of my reasoning ability and my brain just goes crazy, which i'm sure is why LSAC does this in the first place! When I do my work untimed I get all the answers or most of the answers all correct.

    How long did it take you all to get use to the timing conditions? How many PTs did it take you to feel somewhat comfortable?

    Thanks 7Sage!

    I've been a long time member of 7Sage... I know the website used to have a section that stores all links for previously held webinars by Sages... but, it looks like the section has been removed from the website.

    Is there any way we can have an access to previous webinar series?

    Thanks

    Hi everyone! I decided to retake the LSAT for the 4th time this June and apply for the 2021 cycle vs remain in the 2020 application pool. My final LSAT score for January 2020 was a 151. I started studying again mid-March as I have had a ton of time now that I work from home. My average for the last 3 tests I’ve taken is a 153. I do a section a day and have scored a 155 through that. I’m hoping to score at least a 160 in June and was hoping someone could offer some advice? Currently I do a section a day, review that section, and then drill the corresponding section + logical reasoning. I also take a PT every Saturday and try to review it on Sunday. I’m hoping a month is enough time but any advice would be appreciated!

    So I have finally gone thru all of the 7Sage courseload. I made an outline for Logical Reasoning (as this seems to be the most information/technique memorization section) and made quick flash cards pertaining to all sections for indicator words and other things.

    What is the best way to study and review? Drill questions? Obviously do full preptests but i cannot do them everyday. Base studying off of analytics?

    Planning on taking August exam, so I have time to blitz thru everything. Just trying to be thorough.

    Hope everyone is doing okay with COVID-19! I am a pharmacist, so I am still working but squeezing in study time daily.

    Hi,

    So lately we have all seen the bad news online and people losing their jobs. Yet, at the same time, it is best to stay at home to avoid infecting others, ourselves, and our families. I really want to help others during this pandemic, but it is hard to come up with good ideas that can really help others without me leaving the house too much. Does anybody here have any good ideas? Anything goes

    I'm sure this has been mentioned before, but I was under the impression that the LSAT is the gold standard for Law School Admissions and while schools will not outright say this - the GRE is viewed less favorably since it's (somewhat) easier.

    Anyway, I posted a screenshot on snapchat of a practice test I took yesterday (I got a 171) and this guy I know messages me telling me:

    Test centers are closed AND

    I should take the GRE instead.

    I inform him about the remote proctored version. Before I can mention that the LSAT is a harder exam he goes on about how the law schools prefer the GRE...

    He then asked me what my score was - even though he was responding to a post of my score - and recommended I apply to schools (that are not even T50)

    I find it funny when people act like this and just thought I would share.

    Hello amazing 7Sage community! I would appreciate some feedback concerning my study strategy.

    I sat November and got a 158 after going through the Powerscore Bibles and the Loophole. I’m trying to score in the 170s, so I upgraded to Ultimate after receiving my score. I’m plugging through the core curriculum, but am wondering if it would be beneficial to start taking PTs as I go through the curriculum. I was originally planning on taking the LSAT again this fall, but the LSAT Flex is becoming increasingly attractive to me as I hit major fatigue during sections 4 & 5 during a full PT.

    Would I be doing myself a disservice by “wasting” PTs if I’m not done with the full core curriculum? I know this process takes time, and I’ve been studying for a year now. I’m just trying to see if anyone else is feeling the fire to try to take the Flex option.

    Thank you so much!
