Hi guys I'm in dire need of advice. I scheduled for the August flex thinking I'd have enough time to study and get the score I want, however, that's not the case at all. I'm 2 weeks away from the test. I tried to reschedule some time ago, but the deadline already passed. Has anyone ever tried rescheduling last minute with the LSAC before? and if it worked for you at all?

.

Good morning! I am trouble linking my 7Sage with LSAC's Prep Plus. I have previously linked my account with Princeton Review so I am wondering if this is what is causing the issue. How do I fix this problem so that I can prep using 7Sage instead. I have paid for the service through 7Sage and have the activation link though it is not working. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi, I started studying for LSAT in June but joined 7sage just a week ago.

As I already have done something equivalent to core curriculum, now I'm on PTs.

I scored 151 on my untimed cold test in May and am aiming for 167 in October.

I've done PTs from 1 to 5 scoring 160 or 161.

I planned to take LSAT in January 2021 but felt the need to push myself harder and $45 score preview motivated me to shoot for October.

Now as I know I don't have enough time to do all the PTs before the test unfortunately,

I would really appreciate some advice from those studying for or who have achieved high-rise in short term.

Thanks!

Hi guys,

Is the negation of "many" "none" or just "not many"? I think the negation is "none" because "many" implies "more than 1" and how many it exactly implies depends on different contexts. Did any lesson cover this?

Thanks in advance!

I've already taken the PTs in the 70s and 80s and I want to retake them. Is there anyway I could just create another fresh copy for the whole preptest? I only saw an option to delete my first take - which would also delete the wrong answer data that were used for analytic purposes

Please let me know if I'm missing something obvious (lol). Thanks!

How important is it to take a cold lsat diagnostic test before beginning your studying?

I'll be taking August Flex exam and I have a big fear of LR section.

I've been reading Loophole despite the test literally being in few weeks. Now I'm not sure if that's the best way to go about bringing my score up 3+ since I consistently score around -4 in LG and -6 in RC. Should I focus on perfecting LG or go back to the basics and read up on Loophole to strengthen my fundamentals? I'm feeling defeated because I can never get past 170 when doing BR, so I feel like this indicates a fundamental weakness. But on the other hand it feels like I'm beating a dead horse by reading LR textbooks when I should now strategize to maximize my scores.

I feel like I might be missing something - is there a way to flag answers on 7sage similarly to how flagging is done on the digital LSAT?

I am scheduled for 230 pm on the 29th and was wondering if anyone had any tips/recommendations on what to do (OR NOT TO DO) that morning and the day before test day? I am thinking just waking up getting little workout in just to do something but not sure what else... thank you and good luck to all August test takers.. go get what's yours.

Hi!

I am feeling super discouraged because my prep tests keep fluctuating, is this normal? I just took my 6th PT and I got my worst score. Absolutely bombed RC and LR. Any advice for those sections? Some days i’ll feel super confident due to my score and other days this will happen and I start to lose hope. Any advice is appreciated.

Hi everyone.

I have really bad news.

We are taking down all of our free Logic Game videos on YouTube on November 15.

Two months ago, LSAC's legal department requested that we remove the videos on copyright violation grounds. We immediately retained Quinn Emanuel, one of the best law firms in the country, and worked with two amazing lawyers (one of whom used to be a 7Sager) to try to work this out with LSAC. Despite our efforts, they remain firm. Our remaining option was to litigate but we don't have the resources to pursue that path.

On November 15 our LG videos will no longer be available to the public for free. They will still exist, but only to students enrolled in a full 7Sage course. This way, we can track usage and send licensing fees accordingly.

These videos have been free for nearly eight years. In that time period, we created an alternative to the paradigm of expensive, in-class test prep in the form of free and low cost, on-demand lessons. I'm sad to see these free videos—a mainstay of both our business and social mission—go. I've had many students tell me that they couldn't afford a course but fully utilized our LG videos, which made me very happy. I've also had many tutors tell me that they don't tutor LG anymore because there's no need to. It makes me feel good to know that we made an impact for some students.

I wanted to see in quantitative terms how much of an impact the LG videos made.

We ran the numbers and generated the chart below. This is data pulled from our analytics. We did our best to exclude retakes, older data, and other data that might inflate scores. Look at the blue and grey lines for LR and RC. They peak around minus 3 or 4, meaning more 7Sagers got around 3 to 4 wrong per section than any other number. Compared to the full population of LSAT takers, this curve is likely left-skewed simply because they're all 7Sagers, a group of students who take their studies seriously. Still, the distribution is relatively normal; you can make out the curve. Relatively few people get -0/-1 on those sections.

Now look at the orange line for LG. The peak of the curve sits at -0/-1. Take a second to think about this. This means more 7Sage students taking PTs got an LG score of -0 or -1 than any other score. That's not normal.

I'm curious about the actual exam data on the yearly LG curve over the past decade. My guess is that the curve moved left, meaning the average student has been significantly improving on LG. The actual LG curve might even look similar to ours, since everyone had access to our LG videos. If true, this could offer an explanation for LSAC's increasing preference for weird, miscellaneous games.

Anyway, back to the fact that we're having to remove all our LG videos from YouTube, which is really the point of this post: I'm sorry. If I don't sound more upset about it, it's only because I've had two months now to absorb the blow.

You probably have questions. I'll try to check back here today and tomorrow to answer the ones I can.

I've taken a diagnostic and scored a 146. I was wondering which study plan would be the most effective. Right now I'm on the grammar section. Assuming that I have enough time to do all these options, which study method is better?

Hi I have noticed that I do not have the highlight features available when I do problem sets or preptests and was wondering if there is a way to enable this feature?

Title pretty much says it

I feel like I hit a wall. Just 2 weeks away from the August Flex, I can't go above a 170 because I keep getting -5 on reading comprehension. I always get wrong the questions that talk about structure, and the purpose of a specific term. Any tips?

Hi everyone! I took the January LSAT and made a 161 which is a good score but I'm aiming for a 170. I started studying again right at the end of May. I've done five full exams so far with the following scores:

PT 74- 160 (Diagnostic)

PT 81- 162 (BR 164)

PT 79- 163 (BR 164)

PT 78- 164 (BR 166)

PT 67- 164 (BR 168)

I work full-time so I study in the evenings or early in the morning. During the week I typically complete timed practice sections and review them, going back to my notes or lessons when I need to. On the weekends I take a full exam and do BR. Then, I review the exam in-depth over a few days. I've improved a lot on LG but am still not quite there on LR or RC. Lately, I've been struggling more than usual on RC for some reason (I'm not sure why).

I was wondering what advice folks have for me. I've been staying positive and I think I'm genuinely improving every week but I just need an extra push to keep bringing my score up. I'm hoping to take the exam by the end of this year. Thank you in advance for your advice! :)

Hi everyone,

So I am currently registered for the August Flex. I've been studying since May and I've averaged a 154 across 7 prep tests post CC and this has been while avoiding guesswork as much as possible- if I don't get to a question, I just leave it blank.

Generally I miss around 20 or so questions per PT. This includes an entire RC passage, an entire LG and probably 5-7 LR questions.

With my GPA I really only need a 157 or 158 to have a good chance of being admitted to a Canadian Law School.

My thinking is that even now, were I just to guess on those last 20 or so questions, I would come very close to these scores. This is without factoring in any improvement I see by August. Then of course there's the test day penalty to consider as well...

I am really at loss of what to do here. I'm not sure whether I should just go for this cycle, write in August and potentially again in October/November, or whether I should take as much time as I need and just apply for the following cycle.

For reference, I'm averaging around -8 on LR, -9/-10 on LG and a paltry -11 on RC right now (I've neglected RC quite a bit up to this point.)

I would appreciate any suggestions or advice because honestly I am at a loss right now.

Is anyone else having issues with some answers being saved incorrectly when they complete the BR portion?

With just under three weeks until the August flex, I am persistently testing 156. I have tested higher, and reached my goal of 160 once last week. 160 is my goal, but I can't seem to make it stick. A 156 on flex is really only 4-5 questions off of a 160, but I am struggling to close the gap. Any suggestions on how to get those extra points in the final stretch? My weaknesses continue to be both LG and RC. Wondering if I should reschedule until Oct or give this one a shot (first write). I'd love to hear your experiences with score fluctuations in the final few weeks of study :)

Just took PTest 55 and I had a GIANT drop in my score. I've been testing using buffered time; on my last PTest I used a 7 minute buffer (42 minutes) and got a 166 and a 167 in blind review. Before that I had gotten a 173 in blind review.

This test was horrendous. 156 in score and a 157 in blind review. I don't understand what went wrong. I was doing two tests per week before this; should I go back to that? I was going to move to 1 test per week in order to keep up with my job and also not run out of tests. I started my job this week and had to work weird hours (NY Time) but it's only temporary. Maybe that was why?

Any tips on whether I should massively reorient my schedule? So far I've been doing this:

Monday: drills

Tuesday: drills

Wednesday: prep test

Thursday: blind review

Friday: going over answers

Saturday: drills

Sunday: rest

Feeling terrible!

Hi,

I started studying LSAT on April. It has been about 5 months. I have improved about 10 points from very first test. However, this is where I stand now. I have no improvement anymore for about a month already. I am currently taking like 3 PrepTests per week. All tests and BR came out to be around the same result with no improvement. I feel like I am stuck. Would any of you please share how to improve more? I need to get at least 10 more points. My weakness is RC. However, any tips for any section would be appreciated. Thank you so much. I am stuck and stressed.

Hi I am currently struggling to get out of the 150s as I have been consistently scoring between 154-158 on every PT. I am looking for a private tutor to help me achieve my goal score which is in the high 160s- low 170s. If you have any recommendations or are a tutor yourself please let me know! Thank you and we've got this!

Hey everyone,

When do you think we will find out if October will be Flex? Do you think it will be flex?

I'm trying to retake a whole PT that I've done before, but I don't want to lose data of my previous attempt so that I can check if I got the same questions wrong again. Can I retake a full PT without having to delete any data of previous attempts?
