Self-study
Is it possible to run out of questions? I know I can always go through them again, but I still have 7-8 months of studying. As of now I have gone through 1800 questions.
Will I run out to PT's and sections to drill?

Hey guys! I'm just beginning my LSAT prep, and was just wondering if people have advice on how I can structure my learning. Should I be doing preptests now or just drills?
Hi! I’m active duty Air Force separating in April 2027 to go to law school. Is anyone else here in the same or a similar situation? I’d love to connect and hear what your process has been like!
I know law school acceptance predictors cannot be taken too seriously but for the sake of seeing ballpark chances I’ve been looking into them. The main ones I know of are LSD and 7sage’s own predictor. But when I put in my stats into both platforms I get wildly different chances (7sage has my chances MUCH higher than LSD does). What would be the more accurate platform? Does anyone know of another, better platform?
I am planning on applying straight from undergrad this fall. For people who went straight from undergrad to law school, what did you focus on most in your application besides GPA and LSAT? My GPA isn’t the strongest partly because my school has pretty tough grading and not much grade inflation. I also haven’t had any legal jobs, but I do have a lot of other professional experience. Do things like internships, leadership, or other work experience make a difference? I am conflicted because when I look for support a lot of people say its difficult which IK but is it impossible?
I have been studying for several months and am stuck in the 150-153 range when taking PT's. Does anyone have recommendations for study strategies? I am specifically struggling with Conditional Reasoning, Link Assumption, and Flaw/Descriptive Weakening areas. However, my current strategy does not seem to be helping enough.
When clicking discussion or next in the CC it brings up the question again instead of the discussion or going to the next page.
Hello! I am getting the message "internal server error" when I click on lessons in my study plan or try to submit a "you try." Is there a fix for this?
Hey all, we're partnering with a cool new startup called Juno to try to make Law School more affordable. See below for a message from them.
----
If you’re planning to attend law school this fall and think you may need student loans, it may be worth joining the Juno Law School Loan Negotiation Group before May 1st.
Juno is a free platform that organizes students into large groups and negotiates with private lenders to secure lower interest rates. The idea is simple: when thousands of students come together, lenders compete to offer better terms.
Over the past 8 years, more than $1B in student loans have been negotiated through Juno, and thousands of graduate students, including law students, have used the platform to access discounted rates.
A few things to know:
Joining is free and takes about a minute to complete
There’s no obligation to take a loan
Rates are negotiated after the group closes, and members can compare offers before deciding
If Juno doesn’t beat the best rate you find elsewhere, they offer a Rate Match Program
Even if you’re still deciding how you’ll fund law school (federal loans, private loans, scholarships, etc.), joining the group simply gives you access to the negotiated rates once they’re finalized.
Join by May 1st to help negotiate the best rates possible!
If you want to learn more or join the group, use this link:
Juno also has some great financial education resources for law students at https://joinjuno.com/resources/law including my favorite, the JD Budget and Loan Planner.
If anyone has questions about how law school loans work or how the negotiation process works, feel free to ask below.
Is there any phone number or customer service email for 7sage? I emailed them over a month ago when I cancelled by subscription, but still got charged and was seeking a refund.
I emailed "the supposedly" customer service email, which is studentservices@7sagestudentservices.com
but have not heard back in over a month..
If a support representative or someone who'd be able to help me, please check the email from sofiam1*********. It'd be greatly supported!
Thank you.
Are we using paper journals or is anyone using a note program on an app they like? I'm a pretty slow writer and writing them out is taking forever. I was debating on getting an iPad (which I would use for other things) and using a digital pencil to do a wrong answer journal. If I did that, I would, ideally, like to find a program where I could hide the correct answer, and my notes, until I want to see them (kind of like how you can press the button to show the notes during review here). Has anyone tried this?
Hello everyone! I just wanted to share how important the foundations unit is. When I first started studying about a year(ish) ago, I looked over the foundations unit thinking how it all was just common sense. The conditional logic section seemed so unimportant and even the grammar unit felt pointless. So... I skipped it. BUT, I can guarantee you that it's not pointless. Ever since I really dived into the foundations unit and started taking it seriously, I'm getting way more questions right. I'm getting the questions right which I used to get wrong all the time!!!
I guess this is all just to say that don't skip the foundations.
I know it might seem like a waste of time and we feel like our time would be better spent learning the question types, but everything which is in the foundations unit builds up to what we need in order to succeed in the LR and RC sections. So pleaseee, don't skip this and don't make the same mistake I did.
I would like to automatically include the practice questions we are given in the core curriculum into my analytics but I can't see to find anyway to do that except by manually unselecting the toggle on each question that says don't include in analytics. Any easier way of doing this?
Hello, How long it took you to build stamina enough so you sit for entire PT comfortably, because I am sleepy after second section or max third... any suggestions? ( even though I slept well, just tiring and losing the focus)
thanks
I don't know if it is just me, but my account is not letting me set the time for drills, e.g., (+150%,+200%, or untimed), and I'm not allowed to choose whether to show the answer or not right after a question in drills.
Edit: This is happening in my smart drill by analytics section
A lot of the time during my lectures I'll do quick drills on my priority tags for like 5 questions/drill, unlimited time (because I often have to stop when my prof starts saying something important), etc. However, now when I press "drill", it takes me into a drill with 12 questions, timed. Is there a way to fix this?
hello, do you know where is located ask a tutor button? I hear it a lot on podcasts from 7sage, but can't find it
Hello! Since it’s obviously impossible to attend every live class from every tutor, how do you usually choose which classes to attend when planning your schedule? Also, do you have a favorite tutor you like and why, because I found them all are very good, just can't attend all classes
Seems kind of predatory!
Is there a calendar link that I can put directly into my Google Calendar to save all upcoming Live Classes instead of having to add them manually one by one? I had it on my calendar from the previous website but it stopped updated this month. If anyone has any info please let me know, thanks so much!
Is there a place on this platform where there are articles or videos specifically about test-taking strategies like whether we should answer all the questions in the order in which they appear, whether we should skip some and leave them for the end, and if so, which ones, and other similar topics?
Is anyone else who is doing the core curriculum drill questions experiencing a glitch with the timing result? The blind review will say that I spent more than twice the target time on a question, but then the results shows me that I spent 0 seconds on it? Is there any way to fix this?
Hey everyone! I've been a longtime discussion board lurker, but this is my first time posting for advice, so here goes...
For context, I started studying about 16 months ago, and I'd say I've done a good job staying consistent throughout that period while also working full-time. My diagnostic was a 158 in Dec 2024, and, since then, I have worked my way up to an average in the 170s using 7Sage.
I took the official test for the first time in October 2024 when I was averaging about 170, but I scored a 165. I retook in November and matched my 170 average. I was pleased with my Nov score and the hard work that went into it, but I ultimately kept studying for February.
I felt like I was making a lot of progress and seeing consistency in the weeks leading up to the exam: my PTs directly before were 170, 175, 177, 179 (the ones before that were retakes so I don't count those as reflective for score diagnostic purposes).
I felt confident going into test day, but I ultimately ended up with a 171. I am glad I improved, and I know this is a great score, but I can't help but feel disappointed, as I feel like my PTs leading up to test day indicate that I am capable of more.
To note, I was careful to take these PTs in accordance with true timing/break requirements, and I tried to make my physical PT environment/routine as close as possible to test day. I also very much tried to prioritize wellness in the month leading up to the test (sleep/food/cutting drinking etc). There is nothing I can put my finger on externally that I think would've been a huge game changer in that respect. I also BR/WAJ in depth after drills and PTs.
So, that brings me to my ultimate question: should I retake for a fourth time?
My ultimate goal has always been somewhere in the 173-175 range (dreaming big for T-14), and I want to get there, but I am worried because I have heard that after 3 LSAT attempts law schools might begin to be critical of additional takes. Does the risk outweigh the reward?
Grateful for any advice from fellow studiers and LSAT legends alike (summoning the greats @J.Y.Ping & @Kevin_Lin with a ouija logic game board lol).
Took the February LSAT and got a 155. I'm pretty disappointed by that. My diagnostic test in December was a 152, and I took 7 more practice tests, and each time I did better than the time before, with one exception. eventually i got a 160 and my highest was a 163, which was my second to last practice test before the LSAT. Then my last pt was the worst I ever did. I got a 151, worse than my diagnostic test!
It just feels bad that I "crashed" like that. Each time I started a pt, I was very scared to start it because I was afraid of doing worse on it than the ones before but then it became real. When I first started studying i told myself no pressure and that I would be happy with any score as long as it would get me into any law school, even without a scholarship. That's what I was suggested by a couple of lawyers. But once I started doing better, I started getting competitive and greedy and wanting to go to more prestigious schools and I was comparing myself to my tutor, who got a 180. I've never done particularly well in school. I also have adhd and was always a 60s, 70s, 80s student, but my tutor said he was like me and got a 180 and went to NYU.
I am registered to take the lsat again in April but now I'm more scared to study for this test than I was before because now the expectations are higher. Im also going crazy because I'm not working now and I'm all by myself and in my head like a hermit. Any tips for studying and not feeling so meh about myself?
