Should you study for the argumentative writing part? If anyone has completed it before any insight on what it is like? Is it a passage then you write an essay I am honestly not sure, I haven't looked into it because I have focused mainly on the LR and RC.

How soon do scheduling dates, times, and locations come out before your test? I am signed up for the April 2025 LSAT and have not gotten an email allowing me to schedule yet, I know it's still early, but I am wondering, for those who have already taken the test, when did you get an email allowing you to pick the date, time, and location of where you will be taking the test.

Just curious to know if anyone relies on the study schedule this prep course provides for them. Is that a good way to really get adjusted and familiar with the LSAT and get a good score or should I set up drills and go to live clsses there is just alot of resources in this prep I want to make sure Im using it correctly to where I will get a good score!

Im stuck getting 160-162 on my past four practice tests, how do I break out of this range and into the mid-high 160s. I take one a week, and practice using the drills everyday in between. I am majorly plateauing and need a way out asap!

I am trying to schedule for the Feb 2025 LSAT but prometric is saying there are no available times for 2/7 AND 2/8. Is this happening to anyone else?

Just finished my first year of attorney life (I'm licensed in CA). Open for any burning questions!

I previously posted my imperfect LSAT journey on my profile, so I'll spare you the background info again here. (See https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/21896/my-lsat-journey-is-over-144-166-rough-road-inspiration-top-3-tips)

I graduated from USC Gould.

I will quickly note that, regardless what you intend to use your law school degree to achieve, the doors a Juris Doctor will open for you will be incredible.

AMA!

Do you recommend getting the core curriculum foundation lessons down as much as possible before moving on to the lessons on logic and reading comprehension (as well as drills and PTs)? Sometimes I get nervous that I’m spending too much time on one foundation section. At the same time, I feel like it’s important and doesn’t make sense to continue with the core curriculum lessons if I don’t feel confident in a certain part of the foundation lessons. I just want to make sure that, although I'm spending time on foundational things I don't get yet, I'm not seeking perfection at those things either. I'm studying full time and only have 3 months, so I want to make sure I'm not spending too much time on foundations.

Hi all,

I know most law schools require 2-3 recommendation letters, but do they all need to come from professors or supervisors? I’m struggling to secure mine for my applications. So far, I’ve only received one from a professor, and I’ve sent out at least 15 emails to others.

For context, I graduated in 2020, and I’ve reached out to a few professors from that time—one agreed to write a letter, but another declined. I’m also currently in a master’s program, but since it’s online, my professors have expressed that they’re uncomfortable writing a letter due to not having in-person interactions.

In addition, I’ve been teaching, but I didn’t have the best relationship with the administrators at my previous school, so I’m hesitant to ask them for a letter. I’m about to start a new job, but I haven’t worked there long enough to ask anyone yet, as we don’t know each other well.

Any advice on how to handle this or whether non-professor recommenders could still be viable?

Thanks!

Hi,

So embarrassing but freshman year of high school, a couple of my "friends" and I got caught vaping in the bathroom (i know i know). Was suspended for a day or two. I am unsure whether to disclose this information since I am not sure if this is on my record or not. I also don't remember if my high school said they would put it on my record or not. For the character and fitness, do I need to disclose this or not. Some of them just say "professional school", but I don't know if i should call my high school or the law school and see if i should. I don't want this to end up resulting in not getting in to a majority of the schools. Didn't know freshman year was going to bite me in the arse now.

Any help would be awesome. If it is the case i do need to submit something, would this be a make or break factor?

Hello Everyone just started 7sage and looking for some encouragement. I was wondering if you could post what LSAT score you started at and what LSAT score you finished at. Also the amount of hours or roughly how long it took you to get that score. Also any words of advice would be appreciated.

Hi, I literally just signed up for 7sage and am starting from complete scratch. Basically the only thing I have done so far is a diagnostic test on Lawhub and scored a 155.

I realized that there is so much content after checking out the syllabus. As a result, I was hoping for some tips related to how I should study all of this material (for example if I should first complete certain sections fully, or combine sections and do a little bit from each all at the same time).

Basically any study guides/tips and approaches to how to best utilize this website efficiently would be amazing! In case this helps, I can dedicate about 2-3 hours daily on weekdays to LSAT studying and maybe a little bit more on weekends. If anyone would be okay with sharing their studying schedule or routine as an example, I would really appreciate that too!

Thanks for any tips in advance (3(/p)

Was wondering if someone could just reassure me that everything is going to be okay, because I really don’t know how I did. I thought RC was fairly easy for me but LR (the sections I was doing best on in preptests) was kind of harder. Has anyone thought they did bad but ended up being alright?

about how many times should one take the LSAT, even with much studying and preparation for the test, without achieving the score they want, before one considers doing something else with their life? Asking for a friend who is about really to give up. (not really)

I am asked to log in myself every other 2-3 minutes into the 7Sage account. So inappropriate.

In the CC lesson on grammar, "Modifiers can be Modified," why isn't the kernel of the sentence “The cat likes milk”? Why is it "The cat likes to drink milk"? Why is there an extra verb (to drink)?

The full sentence:

The cat that I brought home from the shelter in the middle of the village where a merchant was murdered on the only snowy day last year likes to drink fermented milk from the Swedish cow that we imported from Austria at considerable expense.

Administrators: Is there a function to eliminate the experimental section from the prep test? I have an accommodation where the unscored section has been removed from my LSAT and was wondering if I can disable that feature here so I am testing with the same conditions, while receiving accurate scoring.

Was wondering if anybody's applying to law schools for the upcoming Fall 2025 Semester, and if they've already taken their LSAT or planning to take it soon? I've applied to take it in February however some people are telling me if I don't score well then it'll become harder and harder to get in. If I don't do so well I'll most likely take it in April as well. Is anybody on the same boat as me? There's so little time and so much stress for me.

Hello everyone,

I hope this message finds you well. I started studying a few weeks ago and scored a 140 on my diagnostic test. However, I am having trouble grasping the main conclusion logical reasoning questions that are categorized as high difficulty. I've listened to podcasts and tried to understand the explanations, but I haven't had much luck despite trying multiple different approaches.

I can manage the moderate and easy questions, but I'm unsure whether I should move on to other topics or continue to focus on these challenging questions. Should I explore a different strategy or perhaps shift my focus to Reading Comprehension? I would greatly appreciate any advice or insights you might have.

Thank you for your help!

I am writing the in-person LSAT on Friday. I know in the 10min intermission you cannot write on your scratch paper. Can you write on it during the 1min breaks between sections?

how did you guys use 7sage? finish the study schedule 1st? or mix everything up ( study schedule + classes+ practice+ drill). Any advice?

Our hearts go out to everyone impacted by the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. We know many of our students may be affected, and we at 7Sage want to help.

We are currently considering how to best support our students during this challenging time. If you've been affected, please fill out this form: https://coda.io/form/Form-for-LA-students_d9kD52WAqIc

We will share more information in the coming days. Our thoughts are with our Los Angeles based students and the rest of the LA community. We're committed to helping where we can.

I've really been afraid of having a tutor because I feel like it often comes off as super stiff and formal. Glad to have been paired with someone SUPER invested in my success that I also completely vibed with. I'd def recc if you're looking for more personalized studying!!

Hi everyone,

I've been studying off and on for a couple of years now, but only seriously started studying for the LSAT with the 7Sage curriculum back in August. After some health issues and a lower than expected LSAT score in November, I've decided to to aim for the 2025 admission cycle. That said, I'm picking studying back up this week and wanted to know what you would all suggest.

I worked through the 7Sage curriculum in the past in a bit of a hurry and it clearly showed. For now, my plan is to get through the LSAT Loophole for a new perspective, then pick up the 7Sage curriculum again to brush up on the areas that I really didn't understand the first time around.

My plan is to retest in June and possibly one last time in August if necessary, and I'm hoping for about a 10 point jump.

I'd appreciate any and all advice as I pick up this tiring (but surely worth it) journey again!

Hi everyone-newbie here and I have been in the workforce for the last 15 years (completed Master's Degree 10 years ago), so asking for an academic letter of recommendation does not seem like the most reasonable path. I have non-academic professionals who are happy to assist, but I do not know where their focus should lie within the letters. Work Ethic, Emotional Intelligence, General Intelligence, Ambition....the list goes on and on. Any advice on what a letter from a professional should look like to help my admission into Law School?
