Hi all! I am currently a full-time student, working ~35 hours a week as an LA, and trying to fit in at least 3-4 hours a day on LSAT prep. Are there others in the same boat, and how are you avoiding burnout?

I suppose I just want to hear from anyone who is managing a similar workload that can sympathize. It seems like most of my friends and fellow pre-law students are able to take time off of school and work in order to study.

Hello all,

I haven't been on 7Sage that long, and I am in the process of completing the core curriculum. That said, I am finished with the Foundations portion, so I am moving onto the LR and RC sections of the curriculum. I plan to take my first LSAT in October, but I am wondering how I should go about studying. I hope to take my first PT (not counting my diagnostic) this Friday even though I am not finished with the CC. It seems to be the case that I am pressed for time and need to drill and take PTs before I finish the CC. So, I am basically doing CC, Drills, and PTs all at once, which I know is unorthodox.

Is this problematic? Am I not pursuing a proper study schedule/structure? Has anyone done this and has it worked for them?

My diagnostic was around a 145, and a majority of the time I had to fill in random answers as I ran out of time. This diagnostic PT also included LG, which were not intuitive for me one bit. I am aiming on a 160 - 163 and plan to apply to Law Schools in the Fall of 2025 for the school year of Fall 2026. I am not concerned with eventually attaining the score I want in a matter of a year, but I am more so concerned with rushing through my first LSAT since it's coming up and I don't have much time.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks everyone.

My LSAT Preptests will not print. Everytime I click "printable", it just shows each section of the preptest in quick view. I have tried clearing my browsing data, but it still won't work.

If -8 on average correlated to a 170 on the last 20 LG / LR / RC tests, curious to get folks pulse on whether that will shift under the new test. I know it will vary from test to test, but I'm looking for a directional sense.

The reason I ask is that I understand many folks in the 170s went -0 on LG. So, I'm wondering if the test being all LR / RC will mean that maybe on average a -9-10 would be enough to be a 170 under the new test expecting that fewer folks will be able to consistently hit -0 on any section.

Btw, this does assume that the scaled score adjusts with testers performance and the LSAC doesn't decide to just give fewer 170s (which would seem counterintuitive).

I know this is rather speculative, but just curious for thoughts.

Any idea why the Questions Table section of the Analytics pages says "No LSAT PrepTests scored yet. Score some LSAT PrepTests to see analytics on this page." right below the list of my 29 completed and scored PrepTests?

Hi everyone, when I registered for the August LSAT I selected Friday as my preferred test date. However, I was just scheduled for work this day. Does anyone know how I can select the saturday day instead? Do I do this when they send out the email to select your day/time? Help please thank you!

I take a PT every Saturday. The first one I took was a 143 (average for first time esp after only 3 weeks of studying) but I just took my second one and score horribly, I honestly feel embarrassed saying I scored lower than a 143.

What do I do going forward? Does this happen to anyone else? Do I use my analytics page to see what I need to work on?

I just feel really hopeless. I've been studying ~3.5 hours a day, and my exam is in 9 weeks. Thoughts?

Hey 7Sagers,

J.Y. and 7Sage's content creation team have recently developed a new way of engaging with reading comprehension passages and questions. You may already have noticed that many RC passages now feature new tags like 'Spot' for Spotlight-style passages and 'Prob' for Problem-Analysis-style passages.

To help you learn more about the passage styles and how you can improve your approach to RC by applying relevant strategies to passages of different styles, lead content creator Kevin Lin has taught a two-part live class to introduce you to the new method!

The recording of Part 1 is available here.

The recording of Part 2 is available here.

🍪 The recordings are available to all Core subscribers as well as Live subscribers.

Hello,

I began studying for the LSAT about 5 weeks ago. I took a practice test back in October on a different site and scored a 151 with logic games.

I just finished the 7Sage curriculum so I took a timed PrepTest yesterday and got a 161. My goal score is 170 or more, and I just feel really discouraged with scoring a 161 after studying all the curriculum. Is it reasonable to expect a 170 by the August LSAT dates, or should I reconsider my goal score and or test date.

I am just not sure how much improvement to expect just by drills and PrepTests. Thank you!

I'm not sure what to do, I am planning on taking the September LSAT but I'm not sure ill be able to gauge how ready I am by the registration date. I would do the October LSAT but then I wont be able to see my score before the November registration deadline if I need to take it again. Maybe im not understanding how it works etc. but im just not sure if I should take it in october and then register for november wihtout knowing my score in case i didnt get the score i wanted or register for september but I wont know for certain how ready I am by the time we have to register

Heads up, everyone! Starting July 1, LawHub Advantage will be increasing the cost of their annual subscription by $5. It's going from $115/year to $120/year.

If you're planning to re-up your LawHub Advantage subscription and want to save the $5, make sure to renew before July 1 at https://www.lsac.org/lawhub. Remember, you can get LawHub Advantage for free (and 7Sage for $1!) if you qualify for an LSAC fee waiver.

I'm taking the August exam, which includes practicing with sections of LR, Unscored LR, and RC. However, I consistently perform better on the scored LR sections than the unscored ones. As a result, my overall practice scores are lower. I feel like the way they write questions for the unscored sections isn't helpful for preparing or estimating how well we'll do on the actual exam in August. Anyone else feeling like this?

Hey everyone! I am new to 7Sage and I just got the subscription after reading the Powerscore bibles. I am wondering how those of you who have subscribed to live handle studying and attending the classes. I am struggling with balancing which sessions to attend and finding the time to practice drills on my own. Do you attend most of the sessions or do you pick and chose? For me, there is a huge fear of FOMO and the live classes do help with motivation and getting going but I am on PDT time and some of the classes are crazy early at 6am. What do you all do? Also is it worth doing the 4 star and 5 star question sessions or just building up the skills in 1-3 first before even attending those days?

I have a question regarding the drilling method that I should be using (Specifically for LR Q's).

-Should I be using the "Drilling" sections in the CC found after each LR question type in order to practice to improve on each of those question types?

-Would doing so too often cause me to lose valuable resources that I would gain from taking the full prep tests?

I want to improve on the question types that I am struggling with, especially the harder questions in those subsections, but don't want to use up all of the material from the prep tests.

If you have any advice on how to drill properly and efficiently your help would be greatly appreciated.

Do the new PrepTests allow you to do blind review? Also, are these all brand new unused questions or where did they come from? I used 7Sage for well over a year to study prior to the new LSAT format but I took a break for a few months, now I am confused about what test questions I should be using for drills and which I should be using for full practice tests.
