I tried to do some drills today and found I could not because I do not have Lawhub Advantage. Please do not tell me I will run into the same trouble when I finally take a practice test.... Lawhub Advantage is $115 7Sage 2nd tier subscription is $99. Why am I paying for the same thing twice. This is extremely frustrating. I have yet to complete one step of applying to law school without dropping a minimum of $100 to progress to the next "step"

Hi,

Planning on taking the new lsat as soon as it comes out since I’m a junior and want to apply to law school as soon as possible. On my first practice exam I got a 142 and same on the second. I know it seems fast but my goal is 170. I believe anything is possible. But I have issue with just how to study and too indecisive to stick with one. The other issue is on 7Sage there’s 2 versions. I’m currently doing a mix of both since version 2 is newer I assume it’s better. But I have dis Lexi a (WHY DO THEY MAKE THAT WORD HARD TO SPELL) anyways… so ver2 lack of videos make it hard to understand but on version 1 it mostly explanions and not tips or learning going on. Lol any help will be greatful. I only want to go to law school and it's literally all I have left. (long sad story)

Hi everyone, curious to get your thoughts on my LSAT keep vs. cancel debate -

I got a 168 in Feb, which was my target score, but prior to receiving the score, was convinced that I didn't do that well so kept studying fervently and as a result, decided to try for higher even when I did get my score. Unfortunately, I was tripped up by logic games and ended up with a 165 on the April test.

I don't believe I need to retake the test to have a decent chance at my target schools (3.93 undergrad + some unique / strong "softs"), but I am on the fence about trying again anyway, so that is a potential factor.

A couple of thoughts I have that are making me (counterintuitively) trending toward keep -

  • If I don't retake the test, the adcom definitely sees the cancellation as worse than the 168, but they could assume a wide range of "worse" - in that sense, keeping the 165 confirms it wasn't an egregious underperformance.
  • If I cancel, retaking the test again would be extra high stress because if something did come up prior (sick, etc.) or I just happen to underperform, a second cancellation would undoubtedly make one wonder whether the 168 was a fluke.
  • One counterpoint for canceling if I don't retake - how much does the adcom really care about a single cancellation? Would they probably really just see the 168? Vs. perhaps seeing the 165 might "cement" that I'm more of a mid-upper 160s tester.

    So, would greatly appreciate your thoughts on whether to keep or cancel in both scenarios. Thanks in advance.

    Hey all,

    I realized a little while ago that I needed help studying and got a tutor (planning to take the June 2024 test). I thought it was going well, but I took my first practice test in a while and got a 153 (my lowest score since my diagnostic test, and way below my average of 160). Is this a normal thing when starting tutoring? I get that I'm relearning how to take the test and knew there would be bumps in the road, but I'm kind of worried about it. I ended up getting questions wrong that I was 99% sure I got right, and thought I was using everything I learned in tutoring. I still have a month and plenty of sessions before the test, but I just wanted to see if anyone else had this experience and if it's a normal thing.

    Music Suggestions

    Hi All,

    I'm in search of new music suggestions for my LSAT studying time. Lately, I've been listening to a lot of Korean & Japanese music (I'm bilingual, and I understand English and Spanish). I think the Korean & Japanese music helps me concentrate on the material better because I don't get so distracted by the lyrics since I don't understand anything the artist(s) are saying, lol.

    Any suggestions for music in languages other than English and Spanish would be greatly appreciated.

    Hey guys,

    I'm moving through the CC and noticed that I didn't do as well on PAI questions. I'm moving on to Must be True/False questions and wanted to see how you all handled previously learned material. Did you do daily drills in areas you felt you performed worse as you made your way through the curriculum? Did you let your analytics dictate what you studied after completing the CC in its entirety?

    Basically, how did you keep your knowledge fresh of previously learned material?

    I finished the Core Curriculum about 2 or so months ago (albeit not in a neat, consistent, and linear fashion - took me 2+ years) and after taking some drills in order to determine which areas I need to go back and review, I've gone back into the CC to do just that. I'm currently in the strengthening section of LR and I just finished one of the practice drills after having gone through (for a second time now) the lessons and guided practice questions.

    Now, as was the case when I first went through these sections, it is taking me an unholy amount of time to get through these practice drills (anywhere from 20-45 min) and it is getting very frustrating knowing that it is taking me periods of time that exceed or come close to exceeding the allotted testing time to answer a mere 5 question drill. Additionally, and as if to add insult to injury, it isn't even the case that I'm getting all of the questions right within those time frames!

    How, other than at the slowest snails' pace, can I possibly improve? I don't foresee myself being able to, at least anytime soon, complete entire sections of a test under simulated testing conditions.

    Someone...anyone...please help!

    Reset Drills

    Hi, is there a way to reset the drills? I am nearly out of 'clean' questions, games, passages, which makes it difficult to have it create automated drills for me. Thanks!

    Hello 7SAGERS,

    I have a question and it could be something others are thinking. My last time taking the exam was my 4th. One of my exams had a tech issue but it was counted even though I couldn't finish. I've been trying to do better with my study even thought I work two jobs, one full one P/T. I wanted to start law school in Fall 2024.

    With only one more chance to take the exam this calendar year, and two more available over lifetime -- what would you do? I seriously want to change my career course and it feels like timing is everything but I also know that I need money to attend law school and that translates to your score. I have been seriously stressed about this. LG hasn't been my strong suit so I know I could wait until Aug or Fall to take it again, but that means applying for 2025 cycle and I've already put in apps for Fall 2024. I'm nervous that even if my last score is decent what if the schools have run out of funds for scholarship? ?And if I didn't do well, I am not sure if I should withdraw all of my apps or just wait for their decision - but I don't know if you can decline if you're accepted but you don't receive scholarships??

    I'm seriously stressed about all of this. Can anyone inform on these questions I have? Thank you.

    Hello, I have been studying for a little over a year for the exam my first ever practice test was 130 and over time, I have gotten myself to score consistently at 150, but I can't seem to get above that no matter how much I study or practice. Logic games were my worst section, so I am waiting till August to write. Logical reasoning is my best section and I usually get about 15-18 correct but I have been seeing fluctuations in those scores when I do practice test sections on powerscore. My reading comprehension, I get anywhere from 12-16 usually correct so it's not terrible, but there's room for improvement in both of these sections. I have already done private tutoring through 7sage it was very expensive and did not improve my score. I am starting to feel a bit helpless and feel like I have improved to my maximum potential on this exam and I need some advice.I try and study about ten hours a week doing drills and reading my books I always blind review and watch the explanation videos.I have been staying away from practice tests mainly doing drills and timed sections

    Hey everyone, @KevinLin7Sage did an internal presentation for 7Sage Tutors on the difference between CC v1 and v2. I thought it was such a good presentation that I wanted to share it with everyone. So, if you've wondered what the differences are between CC v1 and v2:

    Selecting right answer !!

    This might sound lame... but i started my drill tests !! however, i am confused whether we just click on the x mark to select the right answer or x out all wrong answers ? leaving one right answer !please help.

    Hello everyone!

    So I've taken three prep tests -- two I did all four sections and another I just did 3/4 sections. My current scores have been 141 (all four sections), 148 (all four sections), and 145 (three sections). I've noticed that on all three tests I get the lower difficulty questions right but I miss most if not all the harder difficulty questions. So I'm not sure how I should approach my studying. Should I just drill non-stop the harder difficulty questions? Should I prioritize the question types I get wrong most often according to the PrepTest analytics? Any advice would be very much appreciated!
