I started studying back in November of 2016. In three years since then I have taken the test multiple times but a score of 170 has remained elusive. Now I am trying for another attempt, I want to ensure I get there.

The problem I am facing is that a score of -1, 0 in logic games is not coming. I consistently go -4 and sometimes even blow up as well.

I have done all I can that includes fool proofing 5-36 and more. I have done every logic game in tests 5-82 multiple times. And fool proofed them. so lack of practice cannot be the reason. I have watched JY videos of all logic games from 1-82. I try to make inferences upfront. Try to follow what JY suggests in core curriculum. I have tried to create set of best practices. Yet I have failed to reach -1 which a lot of people can do easily.

One of biggest problem is scoring less on unseen games. if I do a game set that I have done a long time ago, I will do it good. But an unseen new game set, would yield a score that is bad.

Now I am asking you? What else I can do? Not giving up but what is out there that I haven't tried and can try that can yeaild better results? Please share?

I've taken 16 PTS so far with an average score of 164. I started out with a diagnostic of 159, and have managed to pretty consistently score in the mid-160 range. However, one practice test I took (PT48) I scored a 172 and that has been my highest score to date. On logical reasoning, on average I'm missing 4 questions, on logic games 6 questions, and on reading comprehension 5 questions. I'm unclear as to my best plan of action for the next couple weeks leading up to the September LSAT. Should I focus on logic games, getting that to a minus 0 before focusing on the other sections? Or should I continue to PT once/twice a week while drilling (mainly logic games) in between?

The answers bar/graph thing that appears below each of the video explanation examples in the CC (prior to the problem sets) is not viewable when clicked on. For example, here: https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/birds-eat-all-day-na-question/?ss_completed_lesson=1781

I've tried reloading the page, reseting my browser, and using a different device (my iPad instead of my laptop) and nothing is working. Please let me know if there's anything else I can do to troubleshoot. Thanks!

Hi everyone.

I am needing some advice on how to improve reading comp. To give you an idea of where I am in my prep, here is the breakdown of my last PT:

LR: -4

LR: -6

LG: -3

RC: -12

It's pretty clear to me where I need to be focusing most of my energy. I have another full year before I am going to take the test (if I need to stretch my test date out). I have also gone through the curriculum trying to employ JY's memory method and drilling older PT RC sections, and the LSAT trainer's "reading for reasoning structure" method. Additionally, most of the time I am rushing to finish the last passage. No strategy or drilling has resulted in a significant jump thus far.

Thank you to anyone who takes the time to give me any advice on this section. It really has discouraged me, since employing the blind review method and drills have immensely helped my LR score, and fool-proofing is of course the component behind my LG score. I just feel helpless when it comes to making a significant improvement in RC, but there has to be some main strategy to address the section with.

I just discovered the blog and it seems to have tons of interesting articles.

But I find that it has a really annoying layout. It would be nice if you can see the article titles all at once instead of having to scroll through every article page after page, or even to filter articles by category.

I was just wondering if anyone has any thoughts on this, or if there are any plans to organize it?

Is it a glitch that the timer stops until you press "okay" for the 5 min left... I looked down for a few minutes to do game board preps. When I looked up it said that there was 5 minutes left and the timer stopped. Is this a glitch? Or is this going to be how it is on the actual LSAT? Bc... if thats the case, then you could theoretically get more than 35 minutes on the LSAT....

The LSAT question bank is no longer showing up under "Resources" on the website or mobile app. Is this no longer going to be a function on 7Sage? I found it really helpful to sort by question type and difficulty. Instead I only see "LSAT Explanations" which... I think is new, but not sure.

Thanks all!

Example: "earnings is directly proportional to hours worked"

How would you represent this in Lawgic?

Even just for superficial reasons - to make the problems look more like the real format? What about explanations where JY uses only the tools available on the tablet (underline, 3 highlight colors)?

Hey all,

Help me decide when to write, please.

Pros of September:

Cons:

Pros of October:

Cons:

I am currently scoring 150-152 when timed. I would like to score high 160s. That’s realistic, right? I have been studying since the beginning of June.

If anyone has any suggestions at all on the path I should take please let me know. I’m mostly applying to Canadian universities (maybe 1 or 2 American ones). I am also a horrible test taker. Sorry my mind is all over the place right now, I don’t know what I should do!

I'm sitting the September LSAT (it's my second time), and I'm weighing how much time off to take from work. I have 12 days of PTO left for the year, so I was thinking of taking the full two weeks at the end of August to hammer out a bunch of PTs/BR/drills, etc. I'd love to hear from anyone who has used a significant chunk of your vacation time/PTO to study and whether you felt it was worthwhile.

Would be great if we could add this to our analytics without needing to take the whole test.

Is it a good idea to use the BR method for non-timed pts? I like to work on older pts such as 30 to 50 slowly while Im at work or If I need to drill and keep my mind sharp and to make it a habit to not forget anything.

Im using 51 to present pts for my actual timed pts while I study for the October exam so Im not concerned with wasting pts.

Hey everyone,

I was in one of the test centers that got cancelled on July 15 and finally took my LSAT today. I’m planning to sit for the September exam as well. How long of a break should I take before I begin studying again?

Does anyone know a way to download the webinar videos for offline viewing?

(The webinar I want to download is not on Youtube, so I can't go that route)

Thanks

I was wondering who I should contact regarding a refund for a course I recently purchased. Is there a particular email address?

Hi everyone :)

I'm trying to annotate my 7sage PDF downloads on a Samsung tablet, but not having much luck. I've tried uploading the pdfs to Adobe, OneNote, Squid, and several others. After entering my pw, I am able to view the pdf, but when I attempt to edit I get a message along the lines of "tool not available because the doc is password protected". Has anyone else found a remedy to this problem? Do not want to print out all the worksheets, and want to get comfortable working digitally.

Thanks,

CS

I was wondering if I register for October and November will I be able to see an increase? since they're less than a month apart?

Planning to write in Novemeber, anyone else?

#HELP

Hi everyone, I have now taken 3 practice tests on Khan Academy and I find it really hard to stare at the screen for so long with such a short break. My eyes start to hurt and it becomes really hard to focus after about an hour. I have been taking those rather than printing out the old ones because I want to get used to taking it digitally. Does anyone have any suggestions on what to do to release the tension while I'm taking the test? The 15 minute break helps but as soon as I go back to the screen my head starts hurting again.

Hi everyone! Thanks in advance for reading. The discussion title pretty much says it all. I'm following 7sage's Study Schedule for the September test and I've fallen almost 2 weeks behind. Not good. Should I continue and push through and really increase my studying where I can? Or should I just pick certain lessons and start doing more frequent PTs?

Thank you!!
