do I go straight into taking a PT? Or should I take a day in between to freshen up on LR? What did you guys do?

Has any one taken the LSAT in person? I hate doing it online with a passion it takes about an hour to just get the test which makes my anxiety worse. I wanted to see if it worth taking in person is it old school like with pen and pencil or do you have to take it with a computer as well?
As the title says, I have already started old syllabus and something like 25-35% through it. Should I switch to the new one and go from the start or they are not that different and I am good with doing the old one and just skipping LG sections???
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! I'm just finishing off my first week with 7Sage, and I'm wondering when to start taking full-length PrepTests. (I am not in a rush to prepare for a specific test date.) Should I start when I've worked through all the course content, immediately, or sometime in between? If there is guidance on this in the course, I have not been able to locate it yet.
Any advice is appreciated. Thank you!
I am having trouble printing out a full length prep test. I saw there should be a convert to PDF option, but I do not have that. Is this option no longer available?
Hi, I took PT7 offline and scored it in 7sage-- now how do I have it appear in analytics with my other tests I've taken?
With the removal of logic games, i'm anticipating LSAC to make up for the difference with a harder LR section. All LSATs are hard, but what level of hard might next month's test will be?
I want to get into the best school possible and receive as much scholarship $$$ as possible. My goal is BigLaw after graduating. Am I completely delusional? Are these goals attainable? Should I switch life tracks completely?
I am a low 150's scorer on average with most of my PT's, and have seen my fair share of lsat questions from having put in many hours already along with taking the test twice, and have noticed recently that in these PT's my highest section is always the experimental. As you may realize, this is very frustrating for me, for where I am scoring 15, 16, 17 questions right in the sections that are counted, I am almost always consistently scoring in the 20's for ONLY my experimental sections. Does anyone else have this problem? Is there a reason for this pattern? I seem like I'm going crazy missing out on my highest scoring section not being counted in my score. Maybe it's just bad luck.
Hello,
I made a final push for June of 2024 (trying to maximize LG's) with the hope of hitting 170. I fell about five points short of that goal and am feeling a bit stuck. On the one hand, I was making substantial improvement with LR/RC. However, I feel that the uphill battle to claw towards the 170 with just RC/LR will be a challenge. I've PT'd in the past in the 170s (with LGs) and have seen RC/LR scores that indicate that I'm capable of getting close to that margin. I was wondering if anyone was feeling the same way and was wondering how to approach the post-June LSAT if you're in a similar predicament. I've put a lot of time and effort towards getting a 170 and hate to fall five (albeit a big five) points short. Was hoping to see if anyone had any advice or input in a similar situation. Thanks.
I have gone through all the lessons and have a probably a decent grasp of the methods and strategies of tackling the LSAT. For example, I can blind review myself into a 173+ score. However, during the test itself, I just magically forget all my knowledge. During the blind review, I often question if it was even me who did the test because the answer choice chosen was so obviously wrong. It's probably a combination of nervousness, fatigue, and pressure that makes me "lose my abilities". Any advice on how to deal with this problem?
I have been preparing for a couple months now and I am trying to create study group of ambitious students looking to score a 170+. As a group we will preferably meet online and use Slack or Discord to chat keep each other accountable, and have meetings together to talk about certain sections to improve.

I am taking the new LSAT with just LR and RC. Which basleine exam should I take? 7Sage did not direct me to one when I started the curriculum.
I'm a bit confused of the way the 7Sage study schedule is laid out. I'm planning to take the test in October and in the custom Study Schedule 7Sage created, there is no time dedicated to drills in any of the weeks and all the practice tests are bunched up in one week (Week 10 in September).
Does anyone have a recommended study schedule to use integrating drills and practice tests throughout the process? I want to make sure I'm actually drilling questions and taking practice tests ahead of my test date to work on areas I need to improve on.
Thanks!
As the title... is it in the prep tests section?
I've been doing a lot of drills lately but I'm starting to worry that I will ruin my ability to do practice tests if I become too familiar with all the questions. Is there a way to avoid spoiling respective PTs while still completing a sizeable number of drills?
I started studying for the August 2024 LSAT in January; combo of PTs once a week and essentially the core curriculum (from a local prep company). I was testing pretty consistently around the 160 mark until I started drilling for 4-5 hrs/day on 7sage and BRing, after which I jumped to a 165/166 (first got a 166 at the end of May). Since then, I was testing pretty consistently at that mark for five weeks until randomly two weeks ago I got a 160 (PT84) and last week I got a 159 (PT85) (most of the drop was on LR sections). A lot of things I read online suggested taking a break due to burout (which I've definitely felt), so I took this last week off.
As I jump back into studying this week, I'm just really worried I'm doing something wrong w my test coming up soon. A lot of what I read online last week regarding score drops were for people who had just started the CC and/or had only taken a few practice tests. I've taken 18 full length tests over the last 7 months and drilled hundreds if not thousands of questions outside of tests, so I feel like my situation's a little different. Any suggestions on how to get back to that 165/166 mark / things I should be doing differently? Again, I BR, WAJ, drill, etc.
Thanks in advance!!
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
Aloha! I had submitted my application last month but through looking in the discussions and my email realized I never got an email and I wasn't signed in to the account, is there anyway someone can see if my application was received.
I am taking the August LSAT, and I have consistently pointed one point lower than my diagnostic-- I think I've taken 6-7 tests. I am on RRE, and I've been taking the course in syllabus order. Should I skip to my weaker sections? Or should I consider a different prep site?
Everyone:
My LSAT journey has finally come to an end and I’ll be attending school this fall (woo hoo)! Before life gets busy again, I’d love to pass on my preparation materials.
If you’re interested, please reach out
Hi Guys,
Do you know if the LSAT is compatible with the macOS Sonoma update? I have been holding off on updating my laptop for a while now and just wanted to see before I do so.
Thanks in advance!
Hi! I have an accommodation to have the experimental section removed from the test all together. Is there any way to adjust PTs on 7Sage to reflect not having the experimental section?
Looking for a few study partners, can be from anywhere, as I prefer zoom (I plan to take the LSAT in October 2024).
