Hello!

I am seeking some advice from the 7Sage community on how to best prepare for a retake when I used up all the new practice tests. I recently took the December 2015 LSAT and did not receive the score I anticipated. I am retaking the exam in June 2016, however already went through Prep Tests 52 - 77 as well as the Superprep Books to study for the Dec 2015 test. I am planning on using the older Prep Tests for my practice tests, however am concerned that it will not be as reflective of my true score on actual test day.

Any advice on how I should best go about studying for the retake? Do you think it is beneficial to review the past PTs by each question? Or just focus more on testing with fresh, but older PTs?

Thank you very much!

I am using 7sage and have a tutor, but my PT are declining any tips that helped anyone get out of declining scores I am taking the Feb 2025 LSAT.

Currently, I'm scoring around 156-158, with the goal score of 163. When taking practice tests and blind reviewing, I'm pretty confident in my answer choices and feel like I have a good understanding. I've been going to tons of classes and working on my weaker areas (RC science passages, LR causal reasoning and weakening questions) but the same scores keep staring back at me. It feels like no matter what I do my goal score will always be out of reach. Does anyone have any tips/advice? I'm writing in January and I know I'll end up taking it again in June, so any words of wisdom or commiseration are appreciated.

Hey, I'm looking to take a diagnostic prep test soon but I don't want to waste any of the newer tests and I am a little bit confused by the numbering for the new prep test format. What would be a good test (or range of tests) to try without it being so old that it's obsolete or so new that its wasteful to do so early?

I plateaued in the low 160s and it has stared to become a mental frustration for me. Just when I feel like something clicks and I take a PT the same scores keep staring at me...

I have sat for the test twice now and have scored in my band, but below my usual, and below my band. I really want to try to apply for this cycle but I am started to get fed up...

Any suggests for how to look at all this a new way? RC is my weak spot but LR has not been doing too great lately (big surprise there I take it that most hate the section with a burning passion...)

I had a diagnostic score of 159, and after finishing the syllabus did two PTs with scores of 167 for both. However, the following PTs I did after that were 164, 163, and 163. I took a few days to drill and review lessons for questions I was struggling with, came back and tried another PT that I felt fairly confident in after finishing. I ended up scoring a 158, which is worse than my diagnostic. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong or how to proceed since I am getting progressively worse each time I take a PT despite studying and drilling continuously. Has anyone dealt with this before? Feeling really defeated and worried for the upcoming Jan test.

Hello. I want to drill and practice by question type. I have trouble reading on a screen for a while now and want to print out the questions so I can drill on paper. I don't see an option to download a PDF version when I select question types. I think we can do that for complete Preptests (?). Anyone have any suggestions? Any way to do that on 7sage? Or any other sources I can use?

We want to improve our analytics. What kind of information/analytics would you like to see about your drills?

Since the LSAT now has a search box tool in the testing software, will 7Sage be adding that functionality to the PrepTests module so we can practice using it?

Happy New Year everyone! May your year be filled with no LSAT tears and lots of high PT & Test day scores :) (the tears may be inevitable but its the thought that counts haha)

Hi guys,

I've recently taken the Nov 2024 LSAT and am pretty discouraged by the results, to say the least. I had been preparing for the last two months or so (about 5 hours per day appx) and had been doing a lot of PTs (too many I'm sure) in a range of 172-176 with a couple outliers outside the range on both sides, and I ended up scoring a 167 on the actual exam. There were a few adverse conditions which I am confident wouldn't occur again on a retaking, but I don't think any of it could have had that big of an impact so there must be something else. I took a 'diagnostic' two and a half months ago or so and got a 169. Please note though that I did take the exam back in 2020 (hence the username), and I scored a 168 on that one, so the 169 'diagnostic' wasn't a real diagnostic as I was obviously still familiar with the exam from four years ago.

I usually get from -1 to -3 on both the LR and the RC, but generally if I miss 3 on an LR section for instance I'll only miss 1 on the other and only miss 1 on the RC. Doing the math for the 167, I guess I must've missed 13 total at a minimum, which is pretty outside of my range, and almost unbelievable to be honest. It's also frustrating that they no longer allow you to view the exam to find out where you missed your points and review the questions for potential inaccuracy.

Has anyone been in a similar situation, where you've dropped 6 or 7 points from your average PT score on the actual exam? It's hard to take to be honest, and I can't help but feel like my PT scores are meaningless in the face of the score I just got. Also, I know it's somewhat common, but I don't understand how my score could have been below my diagnostic after multiple months of prep. It's all very discouraging, and I'm not really sure what to make of it or what to do differently. I know I need to take fewer practice tests (which is good because I burned like 15 of them in total), but what should we be doing to practice, actually? Just timed drills? At this rate, I worry that I'll run out of legit LSAT questions before I can get my target score (174) on an actual exam.

I don't know if I'm looking for advice or validation, but I think I would be happy with either or both. This was a long one so thank you if you've read this far. I'm kind of considering buying a few hours with a tutor (unsure of where) so let me know if you have an opinion on that with the poll below. Thank you

I live in Colorado Springs & work a 9-5. Looking for a (or multiple!) study buddy.

Is there a way to view my most recent drilled problems? I have a bank of questions that I've completed but I'm not sure when I completed them.

I recently purchase the 7Sage curriculum and was able to access and complete both drills and Preptests 4 days ago. Now when I go to do drills or take a Preptest it wont show me the questions unless I have a Law Hub account which costs $120. I am already paying $69 for this. I cannot afford both. Do I need to purchase the other account even though I purchased this one?

Thanks in advance

.............I can't print out new prep tests

Hi all! I had been consistently scoring between 165-167 on previous PTs before I took the Nov LSAT, and was incredibly disappointed to when I found out I 160 on it. This is my first time using 7sage and I am taking the January LSAT.

How in depth should I be studying each LR question type? I'm finding that doing the lessons don't leave me much time for drilling and I'm not sure how to balance it. Would love some advice on how to use the study plan in tandem with drilling and taking sections!

Thanks :)

Is the only option to practice is if we upgrade our LSAC account? Does 7sage not provide any tools for practicing with the subscription? I have the LIVE subscription.

Hey guys! I have run out of material and have been redoing stuff over again, but I feel like I am falling into old thought patterns when I do these because I've seen them before. Ugh. But my sister is building me a tool that will change the names and topics in questions to generate what feels like new material for me (but ofc still all credit/copyright to LSAC for designing the questions). Would you be interested in something like this? Lmk!

I am looking for a tutor - not so much to help me with specific concepts but rather to help me with planning/ designing a concrete study plan to conquer my problem areas and advance given the time I have to study. I have finished the CC and know which areas I need to work on. However, when I sit down to study, I often jump from one task to another. This makes me easily become overwhelmed, de-motivated and unsure of how to proceed.

I want to write the test in July. I have more availability since I quit full time work but unsure how to structure my days and what I should get through before the test date.

Does any one have recommendations for a tutor to help with this? or are you a tutor who can help with creating plan with me?

Also, struggling with finances so hoping for a cheaper session if possible but open to hearing rates.

Let me know!

Appreciate it all the help.

I was just taking my first prep test and the first section ended while I still had about 12 minutes on the clock--only 23 minutes had passed according to my own timer. Now I have been locked out of the first section and forced on to the second. Has anyone else experienced this issue?

So I scored a 155 in the October LSAT and then took a break from any material as my Mid Terms and Finals were picking up so I focused on that, especially since I was graduating in December and wanted to make sure I didn't tank my final GPA (3.6).

Recently I received 2x extra time which I did not previously have and have successfully requested accommodations for the February LSAT.

My question is, should I apply now and send an addendum letting them know to expect a higher score after the Feb LSAT, or just hold off until that score comes in and apply with it then? I'm shooting specifically for U Miami (median 163) and FIU (median 160). I was actually just recently deferred from U Miami after an ED application for further context.

I’d like to print out all the modules to organize them into a binder for easier access and review. However, I’m having difficulty finding an efficient way to do this. Printing each page individually seems like it would take an extraordinary amount of time.

What’s most important to me is being able to print out the diagrams, as there doesn’t seem to be any way to do so currently. Is there a solution that would allow me to print or at least convert the diagrams (and ideally the modules) into a PDF?

Would anyone be interested in creating a group chat on snapchat?

Hey everyone,

I was looking to see if there were people interested in making a Houston in-person/virtual study group?

I'm taking the January LSAT, and am studying full time this month.

Let me know if interested and maybe we can make a group!
