Has anyone else had issues recently using the underline and highlighting tools during prep tests? They worked for me before but for the past week they haven’t been working for me.

Its been one hell of a ride. I never thought that this would end but today it finally did. Its funny because I thought I wasn't ready and was considering delaying to study till March or June. So glad I took the opportunity to try and make it this cycle.

Hey everyone,

I hope all of your studies are going well, this is a great program. I've been studying for about seven months now and i'm taking my first official LSAT in February! I did the entire CC and have taken about five practice tests. I'm taking one a week until about two weeks out (Feb 22). My BIGGEST issue is time pressure. It's the bane of my existence. I answer really tough question relatively quick during timed drilling but when I sit down to take a full timed PT, I sometimes get so uptight that I have to reread passages several times and my accuracy suffers as well. I was just wondering if anyone else had this experience and how they overcame it? My current scheduled is practice test every Monday and then four to five ours daily going over BR and drilling. Mabye i'm suffering from burnout?

Thank you for any feedback..

Well got my score and indeed it confirms that LG wrecked everything. But looking at the score in the most favorable light, some thoughts emerge. Looking at my performance in the other sections, I scored at about my PT average for those sections. And my performance on those sections was hampered by my lack of focus due to games (Games was my section 2).

So while I didn’t get the score I wanted, nevertheless I’m feeling good about my chances in Nov.

So sept fam keep ya head up!

I just received my score for the September 2019 LSAT (first time I took the exam), and got a 155. I REALLY want to get to 160, and am planning it to take it in June/July 2020 (whenever the exam takes place). I am a little disappointed with my score, as I studied quite hard and was scoring at about 160 in my PT.

I am currently a Junior in university so I have some time left still. What is the best way to increase my score at least five points, if anyone has any advice that might befit me I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks!

Hello 7sagers,

I was wondering if there was a digital tester feature where they let me take 1-2 sections at a time and be able to blind review them and stuff. Due to my schedule, I plan to take 1-2 sections a day and BR & score them right away instead of taking full PTs, but I can't seem to find such feature.

Is it even possible to take a section or two at a time, and if so, could you please tell me how I can do so?

Many thanks in advance!

Is there a particular section in The LSAT Trainer that coincides with the Grammar Section of 7Sage?

Hey all - i took the LSAT last January and scored a 148. obviously not happy and know i can do better. i have never used 7sage before but have done a lot of research and this seems like the platform to get me where i need to be. The school i plan on applying to has a deadline oof April 1st. was planning on taking the February LSAT this coming year.

I graduated last may and have been working full time in software sales at a start up company. Locked in 9-5 everyday but am not being watched and have the ability to maybe dedicate an hour or two from the 9-5 time slot to to studying.

Any advice, direction, etc. you can provide i would be very grateful of. Please don't hold back and be realistic.

Hi, my scores have been fluctuating for the past three months. It would go as high as 170 and low as 158. This month it went from 158 to 167. For example, like today I got a 160 on lsat 85 but I got a 167 on lsat 38, I got a 164 on lsat 84 but a 158 on LSAT 68.

My RC is the only thing that is consistent (75% correct) but my LR would go from being 95% right to 65% and vice versa but for LG. Has anyone experienced this and how can I be more consistent? Most common answers are 1) lack of focus 2) you got easy sections 3) don't take older tests. What do you think?

Hi all,

I am just starting out on my LSAT journey (I bought Ultimate+ five minutes ago). I will be applying to law school in Fall 2020 with the goal of taking the LSAT between June - September 2020.

For those of you who are farther along in your journey, what advice would you give a young grasshopper like me, or if you could do it all over again? I know the basics - don't waste valuable, recent PTs, the LSAT is harder than you think, the worst thing is not knowing what you don't know...

Open to any and all advice, specifically how I should pace the CC, balancing working full-time and studying, and long term (8+ months) study plans.

I heard so many horror stories with underlining and highlighting.

Is the real thing different from 7sage in terms of latency and accuracy?

Also, I use iPad Pro 2nd + Apple Pencil 1. Has anybody been practicing with that combination noticed difference on the real thing?

Hi All, I just took Oct LSAT in Asia (can't discuss, zip my mouth...), nothing disastrous happened although I was slightly nervous. Usually I score between 167-170. I want to apply to Cornell. If I get 165-167, which is below the median I'll should retake LSAT in January. In that case, should I still submit application in November when the score is released or do I risk being rejected out of hand? Advice is much appreciated!

can you skip to other questions and then go back? or are you forced to complete the questions in order???

I was just listening to the Thinking LSAT podcast and LSAT unplugged youtube channel. I 100% understand that it is much better to expand access in order to level the playing field for those that really need it. However, with the increasing amount of people that are trying to game the system, what do you personally think is going to happen?

Thinking LSAT thinks the LSAC will change the test and make it somewhat harder, because those that have extra time tend to score much much higher than those without it, and that number of people seems to be going up? If this is true, will this happen soon, like over the next year or two? After all, it is somewhat surprising to see the number of people with accommodations go up 400% in 4 ish years.

Hi,

When will the September LSAT be available to take digitally on 7sage? Thanks in advance!!

I know that when practicing on 7Sage we get the option of doing this. I was wondering if this option will be on the actual exam as well.

I'm used to taking lsats on paper where I can cross out wrong answer choices. Does the digital test allow you to mark up the test? For LG, i've been writing out a,b,c,d,e on a piece of scrap paper, but I feel like writing these letters out is time consuming. Any tips for taking the digital lsat? How different is the digital test is from the original test?

Is it allowed for September LSAT takers to send copies of the test to other people? It seems that the rest of us won't have access to it until late November which makes it irrelevant for me since my test is Oct 28. I would be willing to edit personal statements for that test. I am a high school English teacher for what it is worth.

Anyway I put this out there if anyone is interested, just message me.

I decided that I am going to take the lsat in January 2020 so that I can at least make an attempt at being accepted somewhere for Fall 2020. I took the PT and got a 141 without any prior knowledge of the test. All of the schools I am looking at have median lsat scores of 158 or lower. The highest ranking one is in the low 60's. I would like to set a goal for myself of getting between 155-160. Given that I have a 12 week window, is that a realistic goal? I purchased the Powerscore Bible Trilogy and two books with 10 practice tests a piece. I also plan on dedicating 3-4 hours a day M-F, as well as 6+ hours per day on Saturday and Sunday. I also plan on using the 7Sage LSAT Starter. I have no intent on trying to get a scholarship. I just want to be able to submit competitive applications. I have an undergrad GPA of 3.33 and a graduate GPA of 3.53 (I know these don't really count for much).

Long story short, is it realistic to think that I could obtain a score in the mid 150's with a three month study window?

Anyone going? I will be there on Friday 10/11!

Hi friends, I just finished my first PT after finishing the CC. I scored a 162 (165 on BR) and my best section by far was RC (-3 raw, -0 BR). I found that there were quite a few questions that I got wrong solely on blind review. Does anyone have any tips to help remedy that? Any tips in general on how (or if it’s even possible to) increase my score to the high 160s by the November test?

Hey everyone

I noticed I have been doing this a LOT

It is costing me 5-7 points per LR section

I find the correct AC, I circle it, and I think its wrong, so I look through the "lower" ACs, and chose something else. I go back during my BR and -- DUH -- the solutions become apparent?

My BR score is 165-170ish, my PT score is mid 150. Like 155? It vacillates, depending on how CARELESS I am. All my errors are CARELESS and these are really the worst kinds of errors. All I can think of during my BR is how careless and dumb I am.

Then, I tend to get "trapped" on certain questions... I end up spending a lot of time on them, sometimes I get them right (most of the time), and there are always AC's at the end that I miss. It is VERY frustrating. If I just picked my first AC choice and moved on, I would have gotten it right AND saved myself more time for the last few questions. Problem is I have so much self-doubt, I have a really really hard time picking an AC and moving on?? My goal is to get -20 overall (or more in non absolute terms).

Has anyone else struggled with this? What should I do now? I am supposed to write this month :(

Read on the news that a recent lawsuit means that over the next four years LSAC will be taking out the LG section and replacing it with a brand new section. Does anyone know if they are going to make any immediate changes though? I have heard rumors that they are going to grant the option not to take Logic Games at all!!

Hey all

So my October LSAT is in the grand Hyatt NYC hotel, which is in midtown. I’m coming from NJ so I’m taking the NJ transit to Penn station. I’m thinking I might need my phone in this journey to use google maps as I make my way to the test center. Is there a place I can put my phone at like the hotel before I enter the test cite? Or should I make the commute from NJ to NYC without my phone, and just memorize the directions in my head?

Also, if Anyone had experience testing in grand Hyatt nyc or at hotel, would love any feedback or advice. Thank you!
