Reply if you would want to be interested in starting a study group for the July/June LSAT in the West Texas Area

I would love to hear J.Y. do a podcast/webinar on how to study for the digital LSAT. I'm starting to study this month and hoping to take the test this fall. Since I'm at the beginning of my journey I'd love to start out by building good study habits and approaches for the digital test, but there aren't many resources since the announcement of digital is fairly recent. In the meantime, does anyone have any tips?

So I wrote the LSAT in Jan and did alright, have already applied for schools but have a feeling i'll have to take a gap year and reapply with a better score. Just seeing as I am still in school and starting work full-time in the summer, I'm looking at taking the September or October 2019 LSATs. That being the case, they will be the digital version.

I've been absent from this forum for a while and am just wondering how 7sage will be incorporating the changes. Will PTs be done online going forward on the site or will it stay in the current paper format. Sorry if this had already been answered numerous times, just thinking about it is stressing me out lol.

Hey everyone,

I just upgraded to Ultimate+ from the Starter course. Where can I find the drill packs? Is it actually a drill pack or is it just all the questions built into the question bank? Sorry in advance if this is a silly question!!!

Edit: NVM, I found them :)

Hi guys,

My current score is 156. There is only 11 before my next test and I really hope to get a 160+ this time.

How should I spend the last 11 days to reach my goal? Since I have finished almost all of the PT for last test, if it's still effective for me to keep mocking test myself?

Any advice would be appreciated! Thank you!

Split screen support would be really helpful for tablet users.

My eyes are getting too much exercise from reading 1/32 inches letters on my goodnotes.

I'm currently scoring in the high 160s to mid 170s on the earlier PTs, but significantly lower (about 5 points) on the more recent PTs (60s and later). I don't have that many data points, but this is a trend I'm already starting to notice and since the recent exams are a better indicator of what the upcoming exams will be like, I'm inclined to put much more weight on the lower scores for an accurate gauge of where I am. I'm registered for the March exam, and I'm aiming for somewhere in the high 160s, and 170+ eventually (am tentatively planning to take a second time in July). I'd really like to close the gap and continue raising my score — has anybody had a similar discrepancy between the earlier and more recent practice tests, and how did you overcome it? Even within the two "categories" of practice tests, I'd like to close the gap so that I'm only fluctuating a few points rather than 5-6. Thanks in advance!

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone could give me a general direction to go in based on my history of PT's

I score in the lower to mid 160s and really want to get into the high 160s and possible over a 170. I have been studying since November, and am redoing the CC and lead a BR study group. However, I am scoring the same I was in November with usually around -22 for the exam. I don't know how my accuracy hasn't moved, and I always feel like I am at a standstill because I never know what to do to really feel like I understand the exam. I don't believe in having a LSAT limit on how well you can do, and I know I can get there with the right study methods, but I feel like I don't have that.

Walking out of PTs, I never feel like I do well even though I end up usually over a 160, which I know isn't bad. I just feel like I don't have a grip on the test/don't feel like I know what I am doing or how to study to increase my accuracy and break through the -22/-23 slump.

Could anyone give me suggestions on a possible study plan/ways to improve that are purposeful. A friend of mine suggesting just slamming PTs because he thinks its the timing, but I am a bit nervous about doing that considering I will probably take the exam in June or July, and want to finish the CC before taking more PTs. I also score usually around a 176/180 for my BR, so I know it isn't a conceptual issue.

Please help, thank you (3(/p)

BUT I JUST BOUGHT INK TWO WEEKS AGO AND I RAN OUT PRINTING MY PREP TEST JUST NOW.

Didn't even think about it because there's no way I used that much in such little time. But there is a way, and it's called the LSAT. I estimate that I'll be dropping at least $200 on cartridges by the time I'm done with all of my PTs.

Well, off to Wal Mart.

Before I found the amazing 7Sage community I was attempting to study on my own and used a study schedule from LawSchooli. Studying on my own was a disaster but that's another story.

I bought one of their personal statement edits at about $140 in December and I STILL haven't heard from them. I emailed them a week after I bought it and they told me to sent my draft in again, which I did, and I still haven't heard from them. I have emailed them twice since then and still no response. I'm wondering if there is anything I can do at this point? This experience definitely just makes me more happy to have found 7Sage...

I just want to say I'm so grateful that I found this community and these resources. I can't imagine prepping for this giant test with such unreasonable time limitations without it. Although it's super tough and frustrating at times, I feel like the concepts are gelling and I'm forming better habits every day. Go, team!

Hi,

I have the premium course, but I don't think I have enough time before the LSAT in July to finish every single problem set (I'm at parallel reasoning now and work full time) in each section and still get a month or two of practice tests in. Is there a "suggested minimum" list of problem sets I could prioritize in each section? Or is it better to do every problem set in the CC and less practice tests?

Does the base course have the same problem sets?

Hi everyone - I am new here.. I am planning on writing the LSAT in September. I did a diagnostic...wasn't great. I bought the PowerScore Trilogy to better study the materials and just joined 7Sage to better grasp everything.

I also work full time and am finishing my undergrad full time as well. I am a mature student and I hope to apply in November and get in for Fall 2020. I know it's a long stretch but I am motivated to at least have a shot at this.

Anyone please help and let me know how I can get started to better prepare myself? Thank you!!

Did anyone who took the test 3+ times take it at the same center each time? I'm going on my fifth take and kind of feel insecure about taking it at the same place. Perhaps taking it at another test center would provide a beneficial change of scenery for me. With that said, the test center at which I've taken it every time I've taken it is quiet and professional, and is at a smaller university that typically doesn't have a huge group, so it's mostly insecurity that is causing me to consider trying a different test center. I also, when I'm being rational about this, don't think it's likely that where I take it has much significance compared to the quality of my prep, but it still is something that has come to mind. Should I just suck it up and go for the one that I already know is good?

Hi there,

I have been studying for the LSAT for almost about a year (maybe some breaks in between) but I did take three months to study for one take and another few months for my earlier. I haven't seen any improvements in my scores. I've wanted to go to law school for as long as I can remember and I think I've studied really hard despite the shitty outcome. I did have test day jitters on my third attempt seeing that I had a lot of pressure riding on that Jan 2019 LSAT. My GPA is roughly 3.71 and my work/volunteer references are great as well as personal statement. But I know that law school is a numbers game. Lately, I've been having doubts. I got accepted into Leicester and Birmingham in the UK but I know what the risks are roughly so that is a last option for me. Can I improve somehow or should I learn to cut my losses?

Hi everyone!

I’m really having struggles with LR these days. I used to get a total -8 questions wrong in the 50s. But throughout the 60s, 70s, and 80s, I consistently got a total of 9-11 questions wrong. This plateau has started since September 2018...

I really focused on LR for the past 2 weeks and basically drilled all the question types I struggle with. (From PT 1-38) I took PT 68 a few days ago to see if I improved and got -14 questions wrong. (Sec 2:-9 sec3:-5) Why am I getting worse...:(

After blind review I was able to fix 6 answers, but it was still very discouraging to see this score. I don’t understand why I’m not improving at all. I don’t think it’s a burnout... My average is 165 right now. I also got a 165 on PT 68. I really need to get LR down to achieve my goal.

I always review the questions I got wrong and analyze why each answer choice is right/wrong.

These days I’m thinking that this is my limit and I’m just not smart enough to overcome this plateau...I studied full time for a little more than a year now.

Any advice or strategies from people with this kind of experience is welcomed!

Thank you.

I am f finishing up FP 1-35 but I have neglected LR/LG for the most part lol. Should I jump into PT’s while doing LR sections on off days? Also considering going through the CC a third time.

I just took my first ever PT last week. After BR and scoring, I have gone through each question I missed, retried it, and watched the video explanations. I'm not sure what else to do before I take my next one on Saturday. Drill weak sections? Foolproof in my free time? Go back to hard problem sets? There almost seems to be so much that I could do that I'm left not knowing how to make the best use of my time.

What do y'all do as additional prep in between taking PTs? How do you make decisions on how to structure your time? Any input is much appreciated.

I just took the June 2007 PT after finishing most of the CC (I was too afraid to take a diagnostic - bad idea, I know, but oh well). I scored a 162 and only a 163 on BR - is it realistically possible for me to improve to an average of 168 by the July LSAT?

Any advice, wisdom, or past experience is much appreciated.

Does anyone know if you send in a signature of intent to registrar, but sign up for the June test to help with waitlists and scholarship negotiation, would that be a problem? I know schools have different policies, but I am imagining that signing up for the June test wouldn't be some violation or get an admittance retracted.

Name That Fallacy!

(name as many as you like & feel free to add more!)

I would like to do a few more MP/MC drills but do not want to risk using questions from LSAT prep tests that are going to be used later either in the curriculum or when I start doing prep tests in the next phase. Any suggestions? Thank you,

Hello, I just took the June 2007 prep test and received a 150. I took this “cold” except for the few introductory parts of the course. I was wondering if you think a 170 + would be achievable in time for an October 2019 LSAT. And how many hours a week would be recommended for studying.

My scores were as follows:

Logic Games: 7/23

Logical Reasoning: 35/50

Reading Comp: 18/27

Thank you all so much for your help!

Struggling with reading comp, any tips, advice etc. would be greatly appreciated.
