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!!

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

Hey folks! I'm restarting my studies after taking a break from this past July up until now. I got a 160 on the June '24 LSAT, and I'm hoping to bump that up closer to 170 either by this coming April or June. Any suggestions for warming back up to studying? I'm thinking starting off with untimed drills and moving more toward timed.

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.

Over the past 9 PT's (taken over the last three months or so -- I've had to take roughly one PT per two weeks due to other commitments), I have been scoring basically 171-3. BR for these have ranged from 175-180. It feels like the most intense plateau. I usually get around 7-8 wrong, and they're pretty evenly distributed between the two LR sections and the RC section. My intuition tells me that LR is where I can squeeze out some more points (probably RC too, but I really think I have more to give with LR). But I'm totally unsure as to how to get those extra points. It's not like there is a common type of question that I get wrong, even though they generally tend to be the more difficult questions.

I have around 10 modern PT's left. I recently started taking one per week. I'm now wondering if I should space them out more so that I don't run out of material and focus more on drills. Trouble is, I am lost as to what strategy I should take for overcoming this plateau. I was hoping that others who have been in a similar place before and succeeded in breaking the plateau had some tips!

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.

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.

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 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 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...)

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!!

Hey, is anyone else's 7sage being really slow and glitchy? Im trying to scroll through my PT and its just very slow in processing the scrolling and opening. I thought it was a wifi problem but i troubleshooted everything and its the same problem across all my devices. Any idea what to do?

I am a bit concerned that while going through the curriculum and associated drill sets I am seeing so many real LSAT PT questions. Won't this skew the accuracy of my PT experiences and scores when I take them if I have seen too many questions from the tests beforehand?

I am going through the entire curriculum between taking my diagnostic PT and my next PT and worry that when I start taking PTs again I will be familiar with too many questions for accurate test simulation. Is this addressed at all in the curriculum or methodology of 7Sage?

Taking LSAT in January - really trying to break 170. I was pretty consistent in the upper 160s range, peaked at 169 for a couple tests, then decline decline decline. My most recent Prep Test was a 160 - worst I've gotten. I'm reviewing my wrong answers/reviewing content related to the types of questions I get wrong. I'm running Drills. I feel like I should be doing better but they keep getting worse. Any ideas?

Hey! I am studying full time for the next roughly 6 months looking for a study partner/group. Let me know if anyone is interested. I'm currently near GW campus so I'm happy to meet there or virtually. I plan on taking a PT once a week and using the week to review questions, but also open to suggestions. Thanks!

Hi everyone, first time poster here. 7sage helped me a lot during my LSAT journey from 159 June 2024 to 170 September 2024. I just received admission letter from Columbia Law School (ED). Feel free to ask me anything.
