For the blind review, will I improve LR simply by asking why is the wrong answer wrong and why is the right answer correct? Would love to hear thoughts on review and how that helped improve your scores. Thanks!
For context I have taken 8 full length timed practices and continue to score around 160, while my blind review scores have shot up to a 167. No matter how much I review in different ways or drill the question types I miss most often, I cannot get the scores to match or at least get closer together. I'm feeling like I'm out of options and my test date is coming up sooner than I'd like. Any advice on how to use my last few weeks well to close the gap?
I purchased this guy's course and there's no contact email or way to cancel. I paid $40 for a bunch of useless shit on the site that hardly loads. There's a money back guarantee but no way to even cancel. It's shady af. I am trying to get a hold of him to get a refund and cancel before I get charged for next month. I know he was once affiliated with 7Sage and he even recycled some of the content that's on here. The entire course used to be on 7Sage which is why I am coming here for answers. Can anyone help?
I've been studying for the LSAT since the summer and am taking it in June. I'm also currently in my third year of univeristy with a full course load, sports team volunteer work, etc. so I'm feeling a lot of stress. I know that's not uncommon when studying for the LSAT and that many test-takers embark on their LSAT journey while having really full plates. But I think the stress of it has gotten to me more than I expected. It's added a lot to my daily life and weighs heavy on my mind, it's something I'm constantly thinking about. Every grade I get back feels like the end of the world, like if it's not nearly-perfect there's no chance I'll get into law school and I'll be a failure. Every PT I do feels super important, like I need to show myself that I'm improving. I know I'm putting a lot of pressure on myself, but the LSAT and the law school application process just feels so all encompassing. I feel such anxiety about my GPA and my PT scores, it's impacting every other area of my life. Part of it is that I don't have any friends who are also taking this test, so I feel a little isolated from my friends, who are constantly asking me: "Why are you taking so long to study for that test?" and "Don't most people only need like three months?"
Any tips on not feeling like your life revoloves around academics and the LSAT?
highly appreciated :)
Hi!
I am working my way through the core curriculum and see that a lot of PTs now say that 1-2+ questions have been taken from them. I don't want to limit how many PTs I can take and also don't want to pull questions from the PTs in the new format so that I can accurately assess what scores to expect. Is there a way I can drill without pulling questions from the new form PTs?
Hello,
I just started my journey and wish to take the LSAT in august. I am still in the foundations yet when I do drill sets I get complex level drills about flaw questions and when I click explanation its like 17 minute videos and they say "as mentoned in the core curriculum". So my question is, should I wait to finish more of the course then tackle drill sets or keep doing them even if I havent learned how to solve them?
It'll help me in a research project designed to make 7Sage better.

I took my first diagnostic this past Saturday and wanted to know when I should take my next practice test. I have been working through the foundational lessons and was wondering if I should wait until I complete them before taking another practice test.
I had the pleasure of working with Yara from 7Sage, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and has a unique ability to break down complex concepts in a way that other tutors I’ve worked with never could. For anyone struggling with the LSAT, she is an invaluable resource.
The 7Sage platform has been instrumental in my LSAT journey, providing outstanding support and guidance. Working with Yara and the company has been an amazing experience.
Hello! I'm doing a late night study sesh on 7 Sage, and the drilling section keeps refreshing and reloading-- I can't even access the explanation videos right now. Is anyone else having difficulties?
Anyone have issues with this?
According to LSAC’s accommodations page, I have the necessary paperwork for approval of 50% extra time. However, since I have not yet registered, I have not been officially granted the accommodation. Given this, should I take my prep tests with the 50% extra time or stick to the standard 35 minutes? I plan to take the LSAT in August 2025.
Does anyone have a wrong answer journal sample they can share for LR & RC and explain how they incorporate it in their studies?
Just a PSA (but especially for girlies): Narcissistic abuse literally damages your brain and interferes with your reasoning and critical thinking abilities, processing speed, and memory. I went from being consistently getting around 95 percent correct to a much more variable percentage. Please preserve your brain power for studying for this test. Gaslighting can affect your ability to gauge the strength of premises, for example. Your goal is to figure out the validity of the arguments on the LSAT instead of the validity of someone's son's lies. Abusive people force you to reason like them, which does not translate to the best results on the LSAT. Having to sift through 27 lies a day is equivalent to the mental load of doing 27 extra practice questions that actually make you worse instead of better.
Some questions if anyone can help!
How similar is the interface and format to 7sage in general and to the Standard Font option on pts? For instance can I hide the timer? Are all the buttons for underlining, flagging, etc. in the same spots?
During the 2 minute breaks, can I get up?
Can I sip coffee while I'm taking the test or only during the breaks?
Can I eat while I'm taking the test or only during the breaks?
During the 10 minute break, can I for instance go to another room in my house to get food or brew coffee? Are there things I can't do during the break?
Thanks!
If I identify the experimental section properly could I use it as a 35 minute break? Knowing that it's not going to be scored? Is this a good or bad idea for my test day? Let me know. Thank you
I signed up to take the April 2025 test with the target score of 165. Currently, the highest score I have been able to reach is a 160, though often times I can reach a 162 with blind review. This is after 4 months of studying and completing all of the 7sage material. With the window closing on paying a smaller fee for changing the dates, I cannot decide if I should take the test knowing I will likely score lower than my goal score or take it later when I am more confident and will only have to do the test once. Looking for any advice :)
I'm restarting Logical Reasoning and need help on trying to get a consistent schedule of self studying to get to Reading Comprehension. I work full-time. Should I take notes again? I went through the foundations and still do not understand everything. I find that some of the diagraming work, but mostly unhelpful and confuses me. Most things are vague in the course or seem contradictory when reviewing answers. I assume I will get it later on when I go back. How often should I review the lessons and how long should I work on a section. I have not taken a PT since my diagnostic. I am not certain where I am percentage wise. I wanted to know how long I should drill before moving on to the next section of question types and how often. I should do the drilling plus blind review for it?

Just took my 3rd prep test (PT 120). Got a 169. LR -4, RC -4 and LR -1. Very Happy with this result as I am still pretty early in my studying journey.
The only caveat is that for what 7sage deemed to be the "experimental" section on this exam, I got -8. This LR section was noticeably harder, I have never gotten -8 in a section before.
I am just wondering whether this section was truly "experimental"? As getting a -8 on the one section that didn't get scored feels a bit like it invalidates my 169.
Any thoughts or experience on the so called "experimental" sections would be greatly appreciated!
Hello! I'm just beginning my studies for the LSAT and was wondering if someone could give me a comprehensive list of all of the question types (broken down between LR and RC). I'm getting conflicting answers on the internet and just want to be clear. (Sorry, I'm sure there is somewhere on 7Sage that has this exact answer but I am still figuring out how to navigate the site.)
Also while I'm posting, I'm feeling pretty overwhelmed after looking at the syllabus. Should I expect to go through every module? I just am not sure the best way to study. Practice tests + syllabus? Finish the syllabus first before drills or practice test? Any advice is greatly appreciated!
Thank you!
I drive a lot, so listening to content is a good use of my time. Anyone know of a good audio book or podcast that reviews questions, strategies, etc that will help increase my score?
Hi, I am wondering if there is a way to save more clean full PTs for future testing? The function currently can only create drills excluding PT151-158, I am wondering if there is a way to select specfic PT to exlude in order to create drills excluding more PTs.
Thank you.
