Hi! I took the June 5th test and got a 159, I was averaging around a 163. My testing center was horrible and the proctors were talking next to me during my test. As I left the test I knew I had to retake no matter what.

I signed up for the July 15th test but I took a 3 week break and then couldnt get back up to my regular above 160 scores. So I withdrew and didnt take the test. The fact that I couldnt bring my score back up made me think that I have to review foundational information.

I want to take the test again, and think that I need about a month and a half rest. The course I was using before was really intensive and burnt me out. That being said, I also work full-time and would like to get a 165 or above if I retake. I think i have an OK foundational knowledge but would want to revisit material.

How do I know which test to aim for and which 7sage package to use? Should I combine this with any of the Power Score bibles?

How long does it take to get through 7sage’s lessons/course material? Is it written or in videos? Because if its in text I’ll have more opportunities to read the material, on the way to work and etc.

I’d like to apply to law school this year and am willing to take a 2 month break from work if that means I could take the October test. Thank you very much!

How many games did you all foolproof and over what span of time?

Also, how many games do you foolproof a day? For me, I'm currently fool proofing 3-4 games a day.

Hello 7sagers, I am looking for your advice please!

I am currently working on FPing my way through LG and working on overconfidence errors in LR. For LR specifically, I maintain a journal where I write down question I got wrong and learn a lot from. Does anyone else do this/ some variation of it? Could you please tell me how often you go through those questions again and how you incorporate that into your study plans?

I currently have filled up a lot of pages with questions I have done, but I'm not really sure how I can go about reviewing them back again.

Thank you so much!!

Hi folks,

I was wondering if one should expect to eventually be able to score 179-180 consistently in BR and if the fact that I'm not able to do so mean I still have theory to learn.

Hello there,

I'm wondering if anyone has any splitter success stories relative to Canadian law schools? Information on this subject is pretty scarce and so far, the information I have been able to find is more than a decade old (2007). I know that US law schools are more receptive to admitting splitters than are Canadian law schools, and maybe I'll end up going to a really good school in the states, but if anyone can provide me with any insight re: this side of the pond, that would be great!

Once I put in info for a recommender, can I change the info, like change the email? (If it's before I sent out the email)

..

Probably more like flawed thinking but I don't get Test 63 S3 Q6 (bus drivers). The correct answer is D but I can think of a scenario where the assumption is not true but the conclusion would still hold. It doesn't seem to me that D is a better choice than C and neither of those choices seem to me to be required. Does anyone else question this one?

I have 7 more classess before I complete undergrad. Do you think it's okay to submit an official transcript to LSAC now or should I wait? Thank you for your assistance.

I use 7Sage, completed core curriculum (CC) a while ago and went back to review all of the logic material and I'm currently foolproofing games in the bundle (I've done PTs 1-20 so far, but have since taken a break from them when I began taking PTs). I have taken 3 PTs (June 2007 for the second time after 10 months, PT 69 and PT 73).

My goal score is 10-15 points (165+) higher than my actual scores and my blind review scores have been up to10 points less than my goal score (154-163). For each exam, my BR score for was at least 10 points higher than the actual PT score. I have also run out of time for almost every LR section and every LG section in these PTs.

Timing is certainly an issue for me and my BR average is not near my target score. Not sure how useful LSAT Analytics will be to me with only ~3PTs (2 Fresh PTs) so if I should take more PTs, what would be a good amount to take to assess true weaknesses? Timing is obviously a weakness but how much does that matter now--is that a problem to be addressed later or right now?What would be the best course of action? I'm looking to hear from people who have been or are in a similar situation so I can try out a few things to see what might work for me.

Who kept PTing and started seeing results? Who kept PTing continued to not see results, changed game plan and started seeing results? What was that change?

Things I've noticed:

Pretty much averaging -10 on each section from each of these PTs.

I plan on taking the exam in September and want to construct a game plan going into August so that I can be comfortably PTing in September with BR scores (hopefully) well above my goal score.

Long post, I know, but seriously seeking advice because PT scores are making me sad...

TL;DR: I'm basically asking the same question but I have not yet done or tried any LR or RC untimed: https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/13780

I'm about 25% through the core curriculum. I don't recall from the CC if I should be timing myself at this point. However, many people are commenting on the problem sets what their time was.

Should I be timing myself on the problem sets? If not, then when?

Has anyone taken the LSAT in China recently? I am taking it in October 2019 and was planning on taking it in Shanghai as spots were available earlier this week but unfortunately no more spots are available (it is the closest center to me, only 2 hours commute). So I am either looking at Beijing or Guangzhou and I have read some not so favorable reviews for both centers. Beijing and Guangzhou are both around the same distance/same amount of money needed to spend to get there and to get accommodations (a place to stay the night before). So if anyone has recommendations between the two or has had a good experience getting into a test center that has no more available seats abroad, please let me know!

Side note: I called LSAC about Shanghai no longer having availability the day it happened and they stated to call back within the next couple of weeks and see if they opened up more test centers, but from my own research it doesn't seem likely that they would open up more centers. **edit as of 07/01/19, they added another test center in Shanghai so I stand corrected on this and will hopefully get a spot in the new center when I get my next paycheck.

Another side note: I have read all the reddit posts, previous 7sage posts, and all other forums talking about taking the LSAT in China so please do not link me to them as I have probably read them already.

One last side note: I am not considering Hong Kong as a testing center option for the time being.

Thank you to anyone who responds, I have had a rough week trying to figure this out so I appreciate any advice given.

Hi, I just started with 7Sage and got through all of the "Blind Review" explanation videos. I'm a bit confused because in the videos and texts underneath JY only references the Logical Reasoning section but no others. We're supposed to do blind reviews for all sections, correct? Just want to clarify!

Thanks!

Hey friends, I'm going to be done the CC at the end of August, and start PTing in September for the November LSAT. How many PT's do you think I should aim to do? How many per week? Would you recommend that I supplement each test with a fifth section from an older LSAT to get a feel for how it will feel on test day?

Love to get your thoughts guys!

I am looking for study advice. I just graduated from University with a quite a high GPA and am looking for a goal score of 168+

I started the core curriculum on June 5th ish. I have been studying since then, for about 3-5 hours every single day. I didnt take a cold diagnostic, I took the june 2007 free test after finishing the core curriculum, scoring a 156.

Since then, I have taken 3 practice tests, all under strict timed conditions. I scored 162 on the PT 36. I scored 163 on PT 52. And a 165 on PT 38. So in total, I have been studying for close to two months. I am wondering where to go from here. I am planning on taking the October Test, but am willing to wait a full year and study full time and take the test in 2020 if it means I can possibly get a higher score.

3 main questions:

Should I increase my studying time? I can do 5-6 consistently every day. It seems that 3-5 has been working well but I can definitley increase it.

How should I really study? Currently Im just doing 2 timed sections a day plus BR. Or sometimes Ill do a full PT worth of sections in a day then review it the next day. Sometimes, and I know this is bad, ill just do random stuff... I also try to do as much LG as possible, since Ive only finished the games from 1-10 plus whatever Practice tests ive done.

Lastly, is a 170 possible within 3 months? Im not familiar with score increases. Assuming im about a 160-163 right now,can I go 7-10 points in 3 months? Or should I prolong the test to next year?

So ive been studying for the lsat for two month (not seriously) but i took a three week break of studying BIG MISTAKE! i was scoring 14-15 per LR and other sections around that as well or maybe more. But i decided to get back to studying and actually take it seriously so yesterday i did my a section of Logic Reasoning and I got A FREAKIN 9 i also took another one today also got a 9 which is what i first got the first time i ever did an lsat. i cant understand why my score decreased so much i feel so unmotivated and shit about it. like it doesnt make sense at all like what the MY NEW SCORE IS TELLING MY IS THAT I LOST ALL THE KNOWLEDGE AND INFORMATION AND HOURS OF STUDYING BC I TOOK A BREAK. (sorry for the lack of punctuation). has the happened to anyone before? also any tips? im screaming

Hello, I am currently registered for the September 2019 LSAT and was wondering which course would be recommended. I took the Sept. 2018 LSAT and scored a 164, and am currently testing in the mid to high 160s. However, I am trying to lock in a score above 170. Do you guys recommend one course over the other or anything specific that I should be doing to get my score into that range? Appreciate any help in can get.

Hello!

I don't post on the forums a lot, more in the core-curriculum, but I've been on 7Sage since around April 2017 when I started my LSAT journey. My diagnostic was a 147 when I took it in Feb 2017, and my desperation led me around the internet until I landed on this amazing resource. I'm so thankful to J.Y. and the team for creating a fantastic course, and to this inspiring and supportive community that's helped me weather the ups and downs.

It's taken over two years, and I've taken the LSAT four times. After a promising 166 (June 2018), disappointing 164 (Sept 2018), and a so-close-yet-so-far 168 (Nov 2018), I've finally hit a 174 on this last June exam. My first time crying happy tears in my life, I think.

Although I honestly enjoy this test, it's been an emotional rollercoaster. I know there's still more to come with admissions, but it feels so good to finally be able to say "when" instead of "if" when it comes to my applications.

Thank you all again!

Is there a way to access all my starred questions together, instead of clicking into each practice exam? Was marking questions up while going through the core curriculum and I wonder if there is a quick way to access all of them besides the LSAT explanations page. Thank you!

Hi, I have been here since 2015, but I am now pleasantly able to say that I do not need to extend my 7Sage account any more because I got in Canadian law schools.

I was admitted to the University of Ottawa's law school and the University of Windsor's law school. I have selected Ottawa Law over Windsor Law, and I have recently garnered a deferral of my entry into Ottawa Law by one year to finish my graduate degree in April 2020.

I will never forget JY and 7Sage community as they have always inspired me to focus on my dream and academic goals. I really appreciate it.

Thanks so much, JY and 7Sagers.

Take care and all the best!

Apologies if this has been answered previously - if so, please feel free to smack me around and direct me to the correct thread!

Is there a way to launch 7sage's digital test taking simulator to re-take sections for PTs I've previously completed (ie, to foolproof previously completed games)? I know I can print them out, but I'd much rather foolproof via the digital tool; I'm also trying to avoid just deleting all of my analytics.

Thanks!

Hey all, I am wondering if anyone has any great resources for the essays. Trying to identify what they are about and what admissions councils will be looking for. Thanks in advance!

Hey everyone this probably one of the most repetitive questions you all might see on the fourm.

So I finished CC probably in February (a year before I had run through it once but never really PTd) and I started to just practice some problem sets and RC passages and had to take a break for about a month due to finishing up my courses. My goal and what I need is between a 161-165.

I just need someone to help me organize a study schedule and advise me on how to study as I do find 7sage daunting but helpful!
