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.

Hi everyone,

I recently signed up for 7Sage and just took my first practice exam. I wanted to see my results without completing the actual blind review, so the blind review results were obviously the same as my practice test results.

Is it recommended to complete the blind review immediately after taking the practice test? To people who do that, does that mean you are essentially taking the same exam for 5+ hours?

Appreciate any insights on the best way to complete the blind review after taking a 3 hour practice test!

Thank you,

RJ

Analytics error

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?

I am currently three weeks into my study schedule only covering main conclusion and most strongly supported, (excluding the drills included in the study plan) do I start drilling after I'm done the curriculum? Do I start doing PTs after I'm done the curriculum? I have no test date and plan to just go with the wind, when I'm ready Ill take the test, I am in no rush but would like to know how I should attack studying.

so i'm aware there are a few older posts on here about this topic, but was hoping that someone could chime in with new advice...

i'm averaging around 170-173 on blind review pts, and about 92-100% on RC and LR drills with 25 questions/4 passages (sometimes ~88% for the harder ones). however, my scores before blind review tend to hover around 165-67. i know that these are, by no means, bad scores, but i do want a higher score on the actual lsat (sept 2024).

my biggest problem for rc is that i tend to miss essential parts of the passage (that i do not realize are essential until i get to the questions), and end up having to a) go way over time or b) only get to thoroughly read the passage during blind review.

for lr, i panic about the time and end up not selecting an answer i'm confident with until blind review.

i know that comparing timed/untimed scores is one of the main goals of blind review, so i guess i'm also just asking about how to balance time and thoroughness.

i don't know if i need to just keep drilling (though i feel like i'm burning through questions and pts) or if there's some other trick!!

any tips would be appreciated :)

As a child I had an IEP from 3rd grade to 8th grade for reading and writing. 9th grade year I was allowed to take one advance history course, but still had to have follow up meetings to see how I was doing. By 10th grade I was taken off IEP observation and moving forward was no longer require to go to IEP meetings and such. I did receive accommodations though between 3rd and 8th grade, 9th grade they did pull back on that a bit. Would I be allowed to have accommodation even if I was taken off the IEP? I also did not have any accommodations in college. If I am allowed accommodations because of the IEP, would I still have to follow up with a doctor for proof?

Hi all- I seem to be getting more questions wrong in my first section than the following sections regardless of being LR or RC. I noticed a consistent 5 question difference. Is anyone else having a similar issue? Any ideas on how to improve this issue

Hello.

I am taking the test in September.

I have accommodations and I requested the experimental section to be removed. I was wondering if I need to take the my practice test with or without the experimental section.

Thank you!

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!

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!

hi! for those who have had accommodation approved - I just received a letter stating I am approved for my accommodations, do I have to do anything else? are they automatically applied to my current registrations? thank you in advance!

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! Perhaps a silly question, but is there a tool on the drills page to draw things out for LR questions? I have been searching for a pen tool to map things out, but I only have access to highlighters.

7Sage Live and Studying

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?

For example the LR Section Review live class says:

Do you want to cover logical reasoning questions and also timing strategy? If so, this is the class for you! Each week, we will review specific questions on a particular LR section before going through the questions. Check out the notes each week to try the section in advance before joining the class!

But where do you find those?

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.

I started a masters degree program prior and finished about 60% of the degree, including a graduate certificate, with a 4.0 grade average. However, I quit and didn't finish the program about two years ago. I'm wondering if law schools will look at this negatively in the application process since they will get my transcript and see that I didn't finish this degree? Schools generally seem to allow supplemental essays to explain things like this, should I be including that in my application? There were many reasons I quit, mainly that I decided that career path wasn't for me after all (it was a masters in economics program, and I decided I didn't want to be in a math and computer coding heavy career).
