Hi, just wondering if this is happening to anyone else or if this is a me problem? The buttons seem to be missing on the practice windows - the drills and preptests. Both on the actual practices and on the review page. Like they are still there, you can click on something, but the icons are missing so you have to guess where to press.

Anyone else not able to see the buttons to cross out an answer or submit their answer to see if it's right? I've tried refreshing a bunch and nothing is working.

Hi Guys, Im looking to start a group for people who are taking the february LSAT and are looking for others who want to help keep each other accountable and have people to talk about the test about. I know this can be a very isolating process but I'd love to create a group of extremely motivated an ambitious people who can all help each other and motivate each other to do great on the test.

So here is how I feel about it without revealing too much info. I took the Nov 9 LSAT.

The RC was very very hard. I seriously panicked because I was running out of time. Was kinda happy tbh, to hear so many struggled with the same one I did... it included the section about invasive plants.

I am however a bit scared to see my score. For some strange reason I actually thought the 3 LR sections were super easy... Like to the point that I had 5 min remaining in some to review the ones I struggled with. This has made me feel like maybe I screwed up.

I did just start studying again for the January exam and have been drilling with LR and I am noticing that out of 20 questions I am only missing like 2 or 3... So maybe I am just actually doing well?

Anyone else feel the same about the logical reasoning? Feel free to vent and just share. Nice to know one isn't alone in this.

I understand the point of knowing logic, but I have already taken a formal logic class. Now that LG is not included and it is only LR, should I rather focus on the modules for each type of LR question, rather than logic as a whole?

Hey chat, just here to vent.

I'm just feeling discouraged. I feel like my brain is not making the connections needed. I know its a learning curve, but this learning curve is effing steep. I work a 8-5 and alongside from going to the gym, college and personal responsibilities, I tend to study for an 1hr - hour and a half a day for what is usually 4-6 days a week.

I took it for the first time in April of 2023 and got a 143 on the first exam (I only gave myself 2 months to study back then... a bit delusional on my end). I procrastinated and was doing studying on and off until I started to be consistent in September of this year. I feel like mentally I have gotten nowhere for the exam (besides having MC & a bit of MSS questions down).

I know this exam isn't impossible to learn and I can do it, but I just feel like the consistency I put in isn't giving me the results I'm seeking. It might just be mental exhaustion on my end since I only have time to study after 8 or 9pm. How does anyone else deal with discouragement from the LSAT? I plan to apply next cycle and I pushed my test date from February to April earlier this week (maybe that's also feeding into the discouragement? lol).

Any advice is appreciated (3(/p)

I wanted to know if it would be a great idea to go through logical reasoning then go back to the foundation sections of the logic section of foundations? I am currently done with most of the log sections and only have logic of causation, but I am still confused about the logic portion. I will go back through it and see what I am missing. I find it might be easier to loo at those sections and figure out what it is like since its stuff that I will see on the test.

Hi! I have been constantly scoring 149-152 for a couple of weeks. My goal is anywhere from 160 and up. I study pretty consistently and take a day off every now and then. I finished all of the study schedule on here and also did the Loophole LR book. I am missing 9-12 questions on each section almost everytime and don't know how I can change my studying to see improvements. Right now I have just been doing drills on my most missed categories but that is not helping me that much. Any tips are greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hello everyone! I’m new to 7Sage, and I’d love to know which instructors you would recommend or enjoy.

hii im currently looking for a study buddy or study group to motivate each other and help learn new ways to approach problems! im in the pacific time zone, don't have discord and taking the january lsat. looking forward to connecting w you!

Feeling discouraged after October test results were lower than scores on PTs. Advice for how to start studying again and improve for January or February test? Is it possible to improve score by 10 points in that timeframe?

I am scoring 145-150 right now. I would love to study 1:1 and keep each other accountable.

I have discord and I can also meet on other platforms like zoom.

Is working as a paralegal before law school guaranteed to provide more satisfaction with the law school experience than someone who just goes in without having worked in a law firm or any type of legal work? can someone break down any misconceptions about this or speak on if working first in the field is smarter than someone who does not?

Anyone know of a way that you can print the drills for practice when you are not able to access a computer, e.g. in the car or on a plane? I know I could print some older version of the LSAT, but I'm trying to see what options I have. Should I just get a physical prep book?

Hello,

As the title suggests, I'm giving away my LSAT books. I have a copy of LR and RC from PowerScore for the year 2022.

They have been lightly highlighted in the first chapter of each - that is all.

I'm willing to pay for shipping. All I ask is that you're willing to take both books.

Please send me a message if you're interested.

I have heard mixed responses and was wondering if anyone knew if law schools can see you have extra time. If they can, does this affect how they evaluate your LSAT score?

I find that right now I'm really trying to strengthen my weak areas through the classes and trying questions in the drills. But for certain areas like AP, theres only 60 or so questions that are in the drills, and I feel like I will exhaust them really quickly. I'm having trouble finding any alternatives :(

Hello!

I have recently started studying for LSAT. I do have a concern which I thought I might be able to get some help here. I drill different question types now that I am moving forward with learning how to approach each of them specifically, but I am worry that those grouped practice questions are drawn from the actual tests that I will be taking every week to kind of measure and track my progress. If I see familiar questions on those full length tests then my score won't be a great reflection of my progress. Can someone help with that issue? What everyone do to keep the majority of them locked for the full length practice? That would be great if I get some help with your experiences... Thanks!

I have been with 7 sage since July, 2023. Today was my last test no matter how I did it. That was my second test. At this point I am leaving you guys, and I just wanted to say you thank you! That was a long brutal journey and I grateful for your source!

Until a few days ago, I was able to see all my individual drill answers in the analytics tab and was using that information to strengthen my weak concepts. Yesterday I tried to do the same, but noticed that they are all gone from the analytics page. I know that you can also see previous drills in the actual drills tab, but then you have to go by each drill which is really inconvenient. What can I do here?

Hey 7sage people,

I just took the November LSAT yesterday which should be the last time I ever take the test. I wanted to take the time to write out some major take aways I learned during the 6 months I prepped for this test.

The score range that I shot for was originally the high 160s. I started out with a 153 diagnostic in May of 2024. I did not look at any LSAT material before taking that test. I studied from May until the end of this past October. I ended up taking the September, October and now November tests. Throughout this period, I took 10 PTs scoring between 153 and 166. I recieved a score of 157 on the September Test and then jumped 5 points to recieve a 162 on the October test. I'll be posting this without the knowledge of my November score.

A couple of main take aways I found

Budget more time than you think for the entire process. No one really explained the law school application process to me and I started way later than I should have. If you are in undergrad and are planning to enroll in law school the fall after you graduate, you should begin prepping your junior year, take the LSAT in the summer and then apply fall of your senior year. 7sage does not give a specific amount of time required to get the score you want but I would honestly suggest more than 6 months. I prepped 6 months but it felt more like 5 because a lot of the fundamental stuff is so far away from how the actual test feels. I saw consistent improvement throughout my PTs and actual test scores and I think if I had allotted more time I would have scored even higher.

This one is more personal preference, but I would highly suggest sitting for an actual test before you are PTing in your desired score range, and taking all of your tests at a test center. A large part of the LSAT is the mental game and no matter how many practice tests you take, you will feel anxious the first time you take the test. I would suggest sitting for an early test and getting the first time nerves out of the way. I employed this strategy for the September test and I think it really helped me on the next two tests. I also suggest taking the test at a test center to remove the stress associated with worrying about if your WiFi is going to fail, or the possibility of a computer error, and so on and so forth. The feeling of knowing that all I needed to do was show up and take the test was very comforting.

Take care of your body. The LSAT takes a lot of time and mental energy to engage with and if you aren't getting enough sleep, eating poorly and not getting exercise you are standing in your own way.

Take breaks, especially if you are in undergrad. I am not saying blow off studying for the LSAT, but one extra practice test is not more valuable than missing out on some amazing memories with friends and family. I also think that if you are hitting a wall with studying or are seeing your performance plateau, a solid break can help break you out of your slump.

1a. This leads me into my next strategy. There is an element of luck to the LSAT. Each LSAT will have a different amount of each question type and each test is curved a different amount. This means you could miss more on a subsequent test and recieve a similar score. You will come to find out that the question types you struggle with are usually solveable, they just involve a large time investment during the test. I adopted a strategy from some other 7sagers which was utilizing an exit strategy. An exit strategy is when you encounter a question stem you know you struggle with and immediately skipping it and going to the next question. I also used this strategy when I encountered a question that had a long causal or conditional reasoning chain even if I knew how to do it. This allows you to bypass a time trap and answer easier questions. I refined this strategy so much that on the novemeber test I had approximately 5 minutes to go back and look at the 5 or so I skipped and give each one a strong try.

Disclaimer: For individuals looking for advice on achieveing a 170+ or wanting to go to a T14 law school, you will probably not find useful advice here. The law school that I want to go to is the University of Alabama School of Law and I was not looking to perfect the LSAT. I am just hoping to give a few tips and some perspective on the journey because it is a huge investment and often dictates very impactful consequences. In no universe is this an exhaustive strategy for doing well on the LSAT. I would encourge everyone to look at other discussion posts on 7sage. There are a lot of great strategies and frameworks out there that could really help you achieve your goals. I want to wish everyone the best of luck whether you are trying to go to a local law school or Stanford.

Obviously all of the current prep tests include logic games, but should we skip them when practicing? What is the new timing of the LSAT now that Logic Games are no longer included? How does taking Logic Games out affect calculating scores?

I'm trying to print out some drilling sets and it looks like there is no way to do it anymore. Did 7Sage remove the printing feature or am I missing something?

Hi guys!

I was wondering how everyone takes their study notes while going through the syllabus. I have been using google docs, but I am realizing that all the pages are making me overwhelmed. Is there a physical book for 7sage that has descriptions for the logical reasoning section and tips? I think the multiple sections in the logical reasoning section is making me confused and feel lost about to take notes. Thanks!
