Taking the test in August. Just finished my last practice test and I got a 168, before that a 169, and before that a 167. It feels like I just can't break into the 170 no matter what I do. Should I just be hyper-focusing now on the questions I'm getting wrong and set aside everything else?

Just a suggestion to improve 7Sage: there should be a link to the old PT's explanation page for each question! I often rely on the comments to really solidify my understanding and it would be good if they were integrated into the new format explanations somehow!

Anyone else agree?

Hi everyone! Every time I take a prep test in the August format I always do much better in the experimental section compared to the others.

Is that section supposed to be easier? Has anyone else had this experience? Thanks!

Looking for a friend/partner to study with! Currently scoring in the 160s and hoping to get into the 170s by October.

Hi Folks,

I completed Practice Test 104, and I noticed that PT 104, Section 1, Logical Reasoning is identical to LSAT PrepTest 27 Section 1. Is this common, or is it new because of the format change?

How can I best avoid repeat sections? When I was viewing LSAT PrepTest 104 before starting, it stated that I had done only one question. This is probably because PrepTest 27 was done with the obsolete format.

Appreciate any advice!

Best,

Stiv

Hey everyone! So one of my LOR is from a lawyer I worked for, and I don't know what to put for her title on the LSAC LOR page? Should I just leave it blank or say attorney? Any ideas? Thanks!!

Hello everyone,

After reading the LSAC page on the LSAT writing section, it mentions that I will be able to write my essay beginning at least 8 days prior to my in-person or virtual test date. However, everywhere online, I hear of people saying that anyone can write their essay after their test day. Is this true? Where do I find this information?

First PT was a 164, then a 168 - was stuck in the mid 160s for awhile, then broke through to low 170s, then mid 170s then just today I got a 180.

Feels really good although I want to keep drilling to ensure that my real score lands somewhere close to this.

I often run into questions I have already seen on LawHub when doing drills. I would like to skip them, but if I don't provide an answer then these questions are added to questions I got wrong. Is it possible to skip questions?

I am planning on taking the November LSAT and I have been scoring in the 150's on practice tests, is it possible for me to get in the high 160's by November? Not to mention I have no commitments work or school wise, so I have all day and time to study up until test dates. Any advice or takes?

Hi everyone,

This is my first time taking the LSAT, started my diagnostic in the 140-145 range, haven't taken a practice test yet, but I am planning on doing that in the next 1-2 weeks. I am preparing for the November LSAT, but based on questions that I have been drilling, it has been fluctuating for me getting 5/6 right on some days and 4/6 on others (Ex. for Strengthen Medium sometimes I get 6/6 and other days 4/6).

What is a tip/trick that has been helping you out or that "A-hah" moment ?

How long did it take you guys to fully master a question type like Strengthen and/or assumption, only getting 2-3 or less wrong?

I officially started studying end of May, how soon have people started seeing results? I am aiming for a high 160 before November. Is this attainable studying a few hours everyday? Let me know your guys' experiences or takes on this:)

I have a question regarding Conjunction and Disjunction when they’re present in the sufficient and/or necessary condition.

I know “and” does not split in the sufficient condition and does split in the necessary condition and vice versa for "or" statements.

Does that mean if a statement says “A and B -> C” that we need both A and B to be present to trigger the necessary condition? Or 1 of them alone would be enough to trigger.

Conversely, if it said “A -> B and C”, does A being present mean both B and C must be present together as a consequence? Or one can be present without the other?

Thank you for taking the time to respond.

Any advice or insight on breaking out of the high 150s low 160s? Last 5 PTs taken weekly have been 160, 162, 160, 158, and 158. Been going through the curriculum blind reviewing and reviewing PTs the next day. Also haven’t started studying reading comprehension nor do I review it during the review process of the test. Looking to take in September and trying to get 165+

Took a PT yesterday morning and scored my personal best, which I was super happy about, but then as the day went on, I just kinda became more and more jaded about it:

-Almost feels like a "World Series hangover" if that makes any sense: people say that the records of teams who make the World Series sharply decline the next year (see: the Rangers and Diamondbacks' current records) bc it's just hard to get locked in for a regular season game in the middle of July after having constant adrenaline shots in the postseason.

Can't tell if it's just the ebb and flow of general self-doubt involved in prepping for the LSAT or the washing out of the massive adrenaline associated w taking a PT and getting a really good score. Probably a bit of both. Just curious if anyone's ever noticed the same thing in their studies?

I've been feeling like I was going to end up stuck in the 150s forever, after consistently scoring around 153-156 (I'm taking the August LSAT). I took a preptest today and ended up with a 164!!! I could not be happier, as my goal for the actual exam has been at least a 160- now it finally feels attainable :) time to keep drilling + aim for consistently scoring in the 160s!

Hello, I recently upgraded to LawHub advantage but I still cannot access the material on 7Sage. How long does it take for the material to become available?

I just took a PT and at least 20 of the LR question were from the core curriculum. That was really disappointing. The test list did not indicate whatsoever that I had already taken a large number of these questions.

Your drill results should be reflected in your analytics. Potentially, they could come with a checkbox to include them, so users could continue to view analytics for just PrepTests, or decide to include the results of drills in their analytics along with the Preptests.

I find it hard to accurately judge which questions I struggle on the most since the analytics only reflect questions taken in full PrepTests. If you are getting a question type wrong in drills and right in PrepTests, why should that data be left out? Adding a checkbox to include drill results would be the best of both worlds. You can see what you are getting wrong generally, with drills and Preptests, while also still being able to see only the types of questions you struggle on in actual testing environments.

I understand that this is potentially something that could be harder to code on the site (really I have no idea, I don't know anything about computer science), but I think this could make the experience of using 7sage much better and lead to more accurate analytics if it has the option to include all the questions a user takes, whether drill or Preptest.

Hi! Now that the old PT's have been renumbered starting at 101-158 I'm not sure what to use for drilling, full length sections, and full length PT's. I'm trying my best not to run out of study material, any advice?

I'm taking the august lsat and I'm so nervous! I've been drilling and taking practice tests. I'm improving on my drills, and I feel like I've gotten much better with eliminating answer choices, but I'm still stuck in the 150s. I really want to get into the 160s, but it's feeling less and less possible. Any advice? Or anyone in the same boat? :(

I am a slow reader and I am doing pretty okay on the drills but thats because I take my time and time to process/think. I am averaging 3-7 minutes per question....advice? tips? anything?

I have (I wouldn't say crippling) horrible anxiety for 6 years as well as being tested for ADHD right now and have other health stuff. I just quit during a PT cause I was getting so frazzled and want to cry. My diagnostic was May 2 and I haven't even finished the core curriculum. My diagnostic was a 148 (I was impressed), did another first week of studying = 148, then I got a 142 and 145 after doing a lot more studying. [all of my tests I haven't guessed if I don't know an answer - I just leave it blank to see how many I'm actually getting write - but I also don't get to all of the questions - I can't answer the last passage and usually miss 3-5 LR] I feel like I'm watching law school slip through my fingers. If I don't study one day or only do a couple hours I feel guilty and am hard on myself for not being productive. I was working FT and went to PT to study and it is not paying off. I'm writing Oct 1 and 2.5 months is not enough - I don't neeedddd a 170 but I need to be able to get in and I really don't want to go to a law school outside of my city because of cost of living. Every day I get more anxious because I am not seeing any increase. I can't afford a tutor.

Hello, I took my second prep test today and took the digital version from may 2020. However, I am taking the test in September after the logic games are removed, so I took it under the "current format" The test had three LR sections and one reading comprehension section.

I am wondering how it works when obsolete tests are changed to current ones.

I am also wondering if this affects the difficulty of the test as I have not studied even half of the LR question formats but I did ridiculously well, far better than my diagnostic test.

Thanks for any feedback!

I have clicked on the Section in the Test and am able to click on Printable. However, I do not get the buttoon to download a PDF version. I am taking the test on Paper and would liike to practice that way.
