Hi everyone. Just wondering if there's a way to take a PT untimed? I was working through my first PT but then had to step away and all the time for the test was lost.

It's January test week. This is your opportunity to shine and show those law schools what you are made of. You are doing something that many people are not willing to do. You are taking a very difficult and important exam, so be proud of how much you have achieved thus far. I am nervous, I am sure you are nervous, but think of it as just another test. Do not let the pressure get to you. Block out all of the emotion and act like it's just another test. Forget the person proctoring you, watching you closely, you made it this far and you will do just fine. I have faith in you. Do not forget that a number does not define you. Don't let it define you. Whether it is your first LSAT or your fifth, prepare for that test with a positive mindset and press the submit button with pride, because on February 5th when January scores come out, you will get the score you were hoping for. Good luck everybody. YOU GOT THIS!!!

I don't know what I am doing wrong, or if I am just not smart enough for this test. I have been studying tirelessly on top of working full-time as a paralegal and being a mom of two. I have even hired a 7sage tutor and have now done 4 sessions with very little improvement. For context, my PTs prior to my November LSAT were in the high 140s. My actual score was 139 :/. I have been studying non-stop since and my PT scores are still 139! I don't understand, once I complete BR I can increase my score to 146. All I want is a 155+ for the January test so I can still apply this cycle. The test is 17 days away and I am no where near where I want to be.

I would love to hear how people have increased their score and what has worked for you in actually seeing PT scores increase...HELP!!

Hi everyone! I saw online yesterday that you need an external camera if you are taking the test remotely, I'm confused by this and want to see if anyone that has taken it at home can speak on this since it will be my first time. I was planning on testing on my macbook that has the built in camera, is this not allowed?

Hello everyone, I'm trying to study sections based on the Powerscore Webinar recommendations. In the recommendations they refer to 'PT155 LRII' PT 155 has three LR sections, and the first one is expermintal. Does anyone know if they are referring to S2 or S4 of PT 155, given that S1 is expermintal and S3 is RC?

Hello guys. Really need help here. I've been in a plateau of 165 for like 4 PTs already (1.5month)? So I stopped taking full length PTs but instead I just do timed drilling mainly on LR and RC for 2 weeks.(before I do drillings during weekdays and one full length on weekend) I saw some improvements from drilling practices, -2/-3 for each LR max and 0/-2 for LG. I am not sure is it because I had done those drilling questions before that when I read a statement from LR I can just directly formulate an answer and look for that answer in AC. So yesterday, I finally decided to take a full length to see my progress etc. (PT71) Though my score remained the same, my LR got so much more terrible, -5 and -6. RC was still the same, LG -3 (boo). And for LR my error is like everywhere(I was still able to formulate the answer after finishing the stem, but still). Before I was mainly getting inference and flaw incorrect, and now I just make mistakes here and there. (So I guess maybe I did improve on inference and flaw?) I am feeling so discouraged:( and anxiety overwhelmed as my test is in September. Sorry if I am writing like elementary, just don't even know how to express this. HELP @"Nicole Hopkins"

I am struggling now more than I imagined and I would like to know how I can improve or be introduced into how to study.

I would like to start this off by saying I am VERY grateful for my score, and know that a lot of people would do anything for it, so this should not come across as complaining.

I have plateaued right around 168, and would LOVE to break the 170 threshold before the January test. What have you done to break into the 170's? I know that with just 15 days before I sit, much of the work has already been done, but what could I do to get that final push?

If I do drill sets will I end up seeing some of these same exact questions on my practice exams, thus making my practice exams less accurate or realistic?

For context, I just started studying for the LSAT for the first time ever. Do you think following 7sage’s syllabus lessons in order is best, or if there is a specific lesson that I think should be a priority, does it matter if I skip to that section? Just don't want to feel lost and regret not following the syllabus lessons chronologically later on.

I will be spending a large part of my day tomorrow on the road driving back to my college. What are some possible ways to study while driving (in the safest way possible)? I was thinking podcast but I don't know which podcast I should use.

Last couple of days I've been having some technical difficulties where the time elapsed is randomly jumping several hours and when taking PTs my time runs out all the sudden.

Is anyone else having this issue?

Hi everyone, I could use some help figuring out how to best manage my resources!

So, I've gone through the 7Sage Fundamentals and Logic Reasoning sections. Currently, I'm going through the 7Sage reading section. On the side, I'm doing the PowerScore Logic Reasoning Bible so I don't forget any of the fundamentals from 7Sage. I've taken a diagnostic already a few months ago but haven't taken another one yet.

Can anyone help me figure out what are my next steps/how to maximize the practice tests? I want to be able to drill but not use any from tests that I'll ultimately use later for PTing. If it helps you help me, I'm looking to take the test sometime in late spring/summer next year.

Thanks in advance!!

I was just wondering, what is a tip or trick that you used (or use) on the test that you found to be incredibly useful/helpful.

I struggle with knowing which PT's represent the actual difficulty that will be similar to that on test day. I took one practice test (early 100s) and got a crazy high score that did not feel representative of how I would do on test day as it felt noticeably easier. Can anyone tell me which PT's are closest to how hard the LSAT is in the current format?

I've been listening to the 7Sage podcast and really appreciated Henry's description of how he psyched himself up for PTs and tests. (Especially his description of looking himself in the mirror and calling himself a "logic predator.")

I've been loving Taylor Swift's "The Albatross" as a pump-up song. The chorus ("she is here to destroy you") is my "mantra," with the content of the verses neatly lining up with some logical fallacies/traps to avoid (in particular, the lines "a rose by any other name is a scandal" and "Wise men once said 'one bad seed kills the garden.'" But there are actually a bunch of phrases in there that are amusingly relevant to LSAT prep.)

This got me curious -- who else has a pump up song (or other media) that helps them get in the right mindset?

hey i am writing the january lsat hoping to get 160 or higher ive gotten 156/ 157 160 and a 161 occasionally but mmost of the time scoring low 150s like 153 consistently. how do I score my upper range more consistently please help.

Hi All! I'm new to using 7sage but I'm having some technical difficulties. When I review my drills I can see the answer I selected, and not which one is correct. Same with my prep tests. I'm sure it's just a setting I don't have enabled. Thanks!

If I struggle with the context/strategy switching from one section type to another, is there a way to practice that other than the full length tests? Like if I wanted to do a 27Q RC and then a 26Q LR, or even two RC passages and then immediately go into the first 15 LR?

Seems like only option would be to start and not finish a prep test, but then it would mess up your analytics.

For those who have taken the official test, how closely did your official score(s) align with your practice test score(s)? I've been doing pretty well on practice tests, but the imposter syndrome is real and it feels like there's no way I'll do this well on actual test day.

Hello,

I am wondering if there is anyone located in the twin cities looking for a study buddy? I am looking to take the February and April LSAT.

Let me know if you're interested.

Looking for a community of 7sage students who are all in one place sharing similar experiences applying to law schools?

Study groups, tutors, study buddies, tips/tricks, admissions discussions, wellness talks, support for when you're struggling.... you name it we probably have it... some of 7sages best instructors even pop in sometimes :)

I always find myself yearning to know the answer and the anxiety kicks in. I'm worried the same impulse will show up on test day.

So when I’m having a tough time with a question and I’m on my phone, sometimes I’ll look up the question on Google, and see that 7sage has that particular video online (ex: “Section 1 Question 23”) but when I click on it from Safari, it opens up through the browser and I’d have to log in in order to view the video. If possible, and I think it would be a lot more convenient for people who have the app installed on their phones, to insert a button at the top of the browser that allows you to automatically open the app with the specific video instead of having to log in through the browser.
