Is there somewhere on 7sage to purchase the logic games bundle to foolproof the games. I thought I had seen it somewhere but now I can't seem to find it.

Hey guys, I'm looking for advice on the best way to move forward in my LSAT studies.

I took about a 3 week break due to lots of stuff going on at work and travel. Prior to my foolish hiatus, I was taking one or two timed sections a day, averaging -3/-4 on LR, -2 on LG, and -5/-6 on RC (so my scores have been hovering around the mid 160s). When I got back into studying last week, I started using the digital test taker and my scores have totally tanked. I'm talking -6/-7 on LR and even -9 on a single LR section yesterday, which is probably the worst score I've seen in over a year.

I guess I'm trying to isolate whether this massive score drop is due to the switch to digital or because of my extended break from studying... should I continue using the digital test taker and push through? Or should I temporarily return to paper testing to rebuild my skills and confidence?

My first LSAT score was a 161 in July 2018. I need at least a 165 by September 2019. This seemed so achievable a few weeks ago and with consistent scores, I was even hopeful that I could make the climb 170. But now I feel like I've taken ten steps back. What would ya'll recommend for me to get back on track?

Thanks for your tips!

Those looking for some entertainment watch the explanation on test 54 section 2, question 25

So I noticed on LSAC website it says the LSAT is going full digital starting in September “in North America”. And I just called LSAC to ask if Asia LSAT’s are going to be digital in October and they just replied ‘cannot confirm at this point’. So I’m just really wondering if I should start getting familiar with digital format or just stick with paper format. I’m really hoping it goes digital in Asia too since being able to keep track of exactly how much time’s left has been really helpful when I tried out a few if the PT’s in digital format. Any ideas on whether or not Asia LSAT’s will be digital too?

I got a 167 on March 2019 test, and i got a 168 on pt 85, 169 on PT 82. I have gotten lucky a couple times and got a 171(PT 83) but thats rare. Anyone have tips on scoring in 170s consistently? For LR i get between -2 and -4, RC -4-6 and LG -2-0

Hi Guys,

Who's in DC and looking to meet in-person to study and br for the July LSAT?

Please, drop a comment!

I am interested in doing family or criminal law in DC. However, I have a full ride to any California public law school due to Calvet. Should i just apply within California and hope to find a job in DC later to graduate with no debt or should I apply to DC schools and take on loans?

When I first began the course, I blind reviewed the standard way (wrote out explanations for circled questions, input my blind review answers of the entire test, then looked over explanations for any trouble questions). Now, I have gotten into the habit of blind reviewing a section, inputting my blind review answers for that specific section, and then going over explanations (rinse and repeat 4x for each individual section). Does anyone see anything harmful with this way of BR? I have found that my current routine has helped to keep my approach to each question more fresh in my head since the BR of each test can take up to 8 hours.

Any comments/critique greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

I've just taken June LSAT in Seoul and had two LG sections. One of the sections had a game to decide full or routine inspection. The other game in this section was to decide something about pieces belong to Tv or Print or either... I dont remember any games from the other section. Can anyone shed light on whcih LG was the dummy?

Thanks in advance!

November is in the horizon

First thing, I want to thank anyone who replies because I know this is very long.

The problem is my score isn't where I want it to be. Here are my test breakdowns:

Original last year: 144 before CC on diagnostic

Two weeks ago: PT 63- 159 and BR 173

Two weeks ago:PT 65- 163 and BR 175

Few days ago: PT 69- 170 and BR 172

Most recent: PT 70- 164

I know I am making progress, but seeing the dip from 170 to 164 is a bit stressful. I know it was because the environment got very disruptive last minute, but still...I am very stressed. My main goal was to get into the Top 14 law schools, but I have just a 3.6 GPA. I am worried that my GPA isn't good enough for law school, but I thought maybe with a high LSAT score, I might be able to still get in.

I feel like I should be aiming for the 170, but can I even get that by July? If not July, then September? Is that too unrealistic? I am worried about taking the test in November and applying later on because of my GPA. I really want to go to the Top 14 though, so I don't know because I did sit last year's cycle out, so I don't want to delay ANOTHER year. I was really set on the Top 14 and I am looking for any advice. Thank you so much!

Below is a link to Gladwell's podcast (part 1) where he talks about his experience taking the LSAT. There's still another part to come but the pod ends up being more about him contemplating/questioning the timing constraints placed on the LSAT in particular and law school testing in general. Figured some of you would find it interesting, enjoy.

Has anyone else found that after they became accustomed to using the digital LSAT taker that their speed has increased by a noticeable amount? I'm curious if there is something about the digital tester that is helping me, or you, move along quicker on questions (especially LR). I can say initially that POE on the digital test is something I really like - specifically how easy it is to get wrong answers grayed out and out of the way.

Hi all,

I have been lightly studying for 2 weeks and am going to buckle down as soon as I commit to a 7sage package.

My cold PT was a 149 and I’m really looking to push myself to a 162 - 166.

This brings me to my main question/concern. Can I digest premium/ultimate+ in this time frame. And, is my test date too late as well?

I originally wanted to take October but a nondiscolsed test for me is a no go. Also I’ve read that it’s ok to take a November test as long as you apply right when you get your score.

I want the best bang for my buck here, and that’s why I’ve chosen 7sage. So is ultimate+ worth it for my time frame?

I've been studying for 1.5 - 2 months. I should've been a lot more rigorous in my study habits, but I wasn't. I just finished the LG CC and have not begun RC's CC yet. Yesterday I finally summoned up the courage to take the 2007 preptest as my "diagnostic" and scored 156. RC was my best section even though I haven't begun studying for it at all. LR was absolutely the worst because I found myself having already forgotten most of the stuff I've learned in the CC with regards to individual question types at this point. And I also found myself freaking out about the time constrain while doing the LR section, which led me to go "screw it, I have to move on".

To be fairly honest, I feel like a weak baby and a failure right now. I feel like the time that I've spend studying for LR didn't actually matter. How do I move forward? I'm trying to find the motivation to watch the video explanation for each question that I got wrong now, but I feel defeated. Any words of advice?

EDIT: Meant to say LR was the worst section, sorry for the confusion.

I've been tracking and reviewing my missed questions regularly. Is it worth doing the same for questions I circled (but ultimately got right)? Or do y'all have other strategies you recommend for further cementing that correct reasoning?

So i dont want to spent over $500 to buy the go just to practice the digital lsat. Does anyone have any recommendations for cheap tablets to drill digital lsat?

Is there a way to take and grade just single sections from PTs? If not, will this function be offered soon?

Hello!

I am trying to study for the October test, aiming for a 165 +. I haven't taken the mock exam yet, but I safely assume that I am hitting around 150-155 right now? Because last year I was hitting around 151-153, and I have definitely improved from last year. However, I would like a tutor who I can meet in person once a week. Does anyone know a site where I can find information for tutors? Or an individual they have been tutored before who really helped with their studies? I saw Wyzant for tutors, but I would like to know if there other options as well.

Thank you!

Hello everyone,

I am a recent college graduate who is preparing to take the test in October and apply for law school in the fall. However, I had some questions about recommendation letters. Currently, I am thinking of asking my 1) last semester history seminar professor who liked me and gave me a good grade 2) my writing professor freshman and sophomore year and 3) my internship supervisor who was previously a lawyer and I got along with very well.

But the problem is I was only able to ask my internship supervisor in person. I totally forgot to ask my professors because I was swept with finals and graduation :( And because I am out of college, I am not near my college physically.. I think email is the best option to ask my professor for recommendations currently. Also, I would like to give them the whole summer to write one for me, and I really need advice on the best way to format the email to formally ask for a recommendation.

And the questions I have are:

** Please let me know anything I should know! Sorry that I seem so misinformed :( ** Thank you everyone

Hey! Question for 170+ scorers— after extensive BR of incorrect questions and any anything that gave an inkling of trouble, what do you do with your PTs?

Background: I'm a month out from July 15 test date, 170 average, hoping to edge that average up in the next month to secure a 170+ on test day.

4.0 UGPA, want to be in NYC for law school.

Currently focusing on ridding myself of any problems with RC, which is my most problematic area. -0 to -3 on LR, foolproof level on LG. Working on mental discipline/simulating test-taking endurance and timing test-taking techniques.

Taking 3 PTs/wk (67-71, 81, 85-86 left), 25 hours min of studying/wk. Plus a full time grad student in the MA region.

What would you rec I concentrate on to make that last bump and secure my knowledge in this last month?

Many thanks in adv.

Hey so i was reading somewhere last night that JY will be holding sessions for ultimate and ultimate + members, this really convinced me to purchase ultimate but I was hoping someone can show me where that post was to confirm I wasn't seeing things since I can no longer locate that specific post, thank you guys!

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but I was perusing the fees on the LSAC site and noticed some fee changes as well as important info about retaking the LSAT:

What would it cost if I only wanted to retake the multiple-choice portion of the LSAT and not LSAT Writing?

Candidates who are eligible to retake the LSAT would pay $190 through the registration period for the July 2019 LSAT which ends June 4, 2019. Candidates would pay $200 beginning with the registration period for the September 2019 LSAT (May 16 through August 1, 2019). That price is good through the registration period for the April 2020 test. There is no discount for not taking LSAT Writing, but if you have already provided a writing sample, it is not necessary to do so again.

It looks like the LSAT cost is going up to $200 beginning with the September administration. The fee includes the writing portion, which is becoming a take-home style section. LSAC has also stated that you only need to have 1 writing sample on your record going forward, and the older style that is hand-written on test day counts for that if you already have done it. So if you re-take the LSAT, you do not need to re-take the writing section. However, if you opt not to do another writing sample, there is no discount from the $200 LSAT fee. Since the writing portion is now administered separately from the multiple choice test, you may take it as a stand alone for $15.

It looks like they are also instituting "packages" with CAS that provide a slight discount. CAS is $195, Law School Reports are $45 and, as mentioned, LSAT is $200. The following packages are available:

LSAT (w/writing), CAS, 1 Law School Report = $430 ($10 savings)

LSAT (w/writing), CAS, 6 Law School Reports = $650 ($15 savings)

I'm registered to take the July 15th, 2019 LSAT. With today being the deadline for any "Test Date Changes," I'm having some anxiety over whether I should push my testing date to September.

I'm working for a law firm full-time, and I really can't afford to quit (in a financial sense) so I've had to confine my studying to nights and weekends. I've been doing fairly well with that since beginning around mid-March, though I definitely find myself drained by the time I sit down to study Monday - Friday and, as a result, I'm know that I'm not getting the most out of my study time.

I'm also aiming for a 170+ on test day and, although I've hit 171 on a recent PT, I've been averaging a 163 since March. Based on this I really don't feel like I'm ready to perform my best just under a month from now.

The only thing that's kept me from changing my test date before now is the unique opportunity presented by the July 2019 test - to see my score before cancelling.

Does anybody have any advice about whether it might be worth it to take the July exam (and hope for the best) then plan to cancel if I'm not happy with my score and sign up for the October exam? (since I've heard the September test won't be an option by the time my score comes in for July).

Will the October iteration be too late for a solid shot at applying EA to many top schools? And since the July circumstances regarding the cancellation option are so unique, I'm wondering how schools would judge a July cancellation...?

Basically, would I be better off changing my test date to September - or hoping for the best with the July test date?

Thanks so much for any feedback!

Hi guys - I'm having trouble loading the "Course" page on the iPad. The "Discussion" tab is also glitchy - it just shows a portion of the last discussion I viewed (can't fully scroll through the entire discussion). Is anyone else having this problem? @studentservice
