Just had an idea for the best group to do this contact tracing that is going to be needed for upcoming covid19 fight.... law students. You need lots of people who are bright, can handle lots of details and keep everything straight, are hardworking, and most of all understand, value, and respect confidentiality and privacy.. There are 100,000 law students and they could form teams where they are at, take a sabbatical from school, maybe make some money, and save civilization.

So the registration for the June LSAT closes tomorrow night and I was wondering if I could get some quick insight from this amazing community. I would feel comfortable taking the June Flex-LSAT as of right now but I would feel even better waiting for July. I understand that score cumulation is of no issue and I figured, might as well get one under my belt because I will be participating in either the June/August or the July/August dates, or maybe even all three if I'm feeling hardcore. The thing that worries me is the LSAT Flex, I've heard horror stories relating to the recently implemented tablet LSAT, so I think it might be wise to sit back and observe the experiences of students who will have taken the Flex this month before deciding which date to pursue. Who else in this bizarre situation?

Finally, I want to be able to participate in the Flex at least once and my friend who is a full time healthcare worker (Works E.R.) says there's very little possibility the test will be administered normally in July for my state.

Any thoughts would be appreciated!

I know in the core curriculum, it's pretty heavily emphasised that you should do the logical reasoning curricula before moving on, but I have my LR scores in an okay place, whereas my logic games is consistently the weakest part of my scores. So I think it makes the most sense for me to jump in with Logic Games to get myself to the same level as I perform with LR, but would this be a mistake? Will I spend a lot more time than necessary on LG material without the LR core?

For context, on the Feb. 1997 prep-test I scored 18/25 on both LR sections, and 8/24 on LG. So I can stand to review LR obviously, but I want to start with what I have to improve the most on.

Given that there will be different sign up times for the May Lsat-flex I'm assuming that means there will be diffrent versions for the exam so that nothing gets leaked? Depending on the time you sign up for will probably determine the version you get...with that being said I feel like it could be luck of the draw with games..

Update: All books have been claimed!

Hi 7sagers

I'm heading off to law school this fall! I wanted to thank the 7Sage community for being a part of my journey. Like most people, I discovered 7Sage through the (formerly) free LG videos. I found JY and this community extremely helpful and I hit my target score of 165. I took my very first LSAT in Nov 2018 with only using books and the free videos as prep and got a 161.

I could only afford a Starter course, but I felt that this community was extremely helpful and helped me make the most of the resources that I had. So I'd like to pay it forward by giving away my books to another 7Sager with a Starter account and/or LSAC need based fee waiver.

These are all the books I have:

Powerscore Bibles (LR, LG, RC)

Powerscore Training (LR, RC)

LSAC Superprep

LSAC Vol 4 (PT 52-61)

LSAC Vol 5 x2 (PT 62-71; I have 2 because a friend gave me one after she changed her mind about law school)

LSAC Vol 6 (PT 72-81)

Please message me if interested.

Thanks!

I used to buy preptests to extend my acc, can I not do this anymore? I couldn't find the buy preptest section on mobile version of the site...if I can still do this, can someone link me the page to buy the individual preptests? Thanks.

    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?

    UPGRADE

    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! :)

    Lsat score

    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
