Hello!

I've recently started to use 7sage to study for the LSAT. Im a rising junior in undergrad and do not know where to start. I plan on taking the LSAT sometime in the winter of 2024/25. I am also a first-gen student, so I feel like I have no guidance. I have read up on many LSAT reddit posts, but I am unsure if I should be "doing more" with studying. As of now, my current plan is to study for the whole summer and try to fit it into my academic schedule in the fall. How often should I be doing drills and prep tests? I am currently going through the foundations portion of the syllabus.

Anything helps!

Thank you :)

I'm debating whether or not I go through the foundations section to study for the August 2024 LSAT. It seems like a lot of the information would only be helpful for logic games?? Like for example the "Conditional and Set Logic" and "Logic of intersecting sets" sections don't seem like they would be any help on a test that has no LG. Any opinions on this would be great!

I’m looking to study for the August and September lsat test. Is there a practice test I should take as a diagnostic for the new version of the test? Thanks!

Hi,

I notice that when I get a question wrong on a practice test, I usually miss the next one too. Wondering if this is by design or if its just me. Has anyone else ever noticed this?

Hey guys, I have been studying for 4-5 months now and I started with a 136 pt score. I did see improvement with 7 sage and got my highest score to a 147. My goal is a 150-155. However, when I take pts recently my score is not really improving. it has been 145, 138, 147, 139, 140, 139 in 2-week increments. I also notice that especially in Rc i don't get to finish all the passages on time and have to guess. What is some advice or things you did to help with score improvement? I plan to take the LSAT in august, so I have 2-3 months to get 10 points +

I just graduated from undergrad this weekend. I want to be a lawyer and go to law school. My final GPA was a 3.1. If I do really well on the LSAT, would I still be able to go to a T25/T30 school? I know it'll be a handicap in my application, but is there any chance?

Hello all!

I am in the beginning of my LSAT Journey if I can qualify as that. I recently purchased my 7sage membership but previously used Mike Kim's book.

I was supposed to take the LSAT in February but ended up postponing it for June 2024 as I was really struggling to improve during my winter break as quick as I wanted. I am now in a bit of a bind because I postponed the test for June 2024 and experienced various health complications during the semester which made me have to focus more on my classes in order to catch up and I stopped studying for the LSAT.

I am now done with my semester and I am about a week out of the June LSAT and I am still scoring in the 148-152 range. Does anybody have any advice to help me progress or get easy points using 7sage or else ?

I also plan on taking the August LSAT, for this I will have more time to study over the summer so I believe that I will do way better. However, what should I do for June ? I still want to attempt it. My worse section is Logic Games, followed by LR. I'm doing just okay with reading comprehension.

Thank you so much.

I started 7Sage about two and a half weeks ago (I know still very early on-just want some tips) and have started prepping for the LR section of the LSAT for the new version after August, hopefully taking the LSAT for the first time in october. I started with some of the foundations as well. I began the theory and approach lessons which explain the question types and give examples of each, as well as examples for you to do throughout the lessons. Anyway, when I finish with those I start drilling with the lessons and tips in mind. I started the MSS lessons and now have been drilling through the clean questions. I always watch every explanation video for the ones I got wrong and read over the ones I got right to mimic the strategy.

My questions:

Is it normal to have a high varying range of wrong answers between timed drill sets at the beginning? For example, I will do 10 questions to start off in one set since I am very new to this and get -5 on one then -3 on another, maybe -6, -4, then oddly I'll get all of them right and it restarts. Somehow, my main common score is always getting -5. Either way, it's such a weird range and I have no idea where I am at or how to gauge this. I know there are gaps because I just started but what are your tips? Even though it's still early shouldn't I be improving at least a little?

Did you find drilling or lessons more valuable and how do I know what's best for me? Did you watch every foundational video or focused on specific lessons and then drilled right after?

Hi all, instead of writing individually, here is the link for anyone who msged me about discord link, and/or if you are still looking for a accountability and beyond group, here is the server link: https://discord.gg/AWekDrtwHc

Keep getting this message when I try to use the autobuilder. I'm giving it like 20 tests to pull from and a bunch of question types, what's wrong? #help

Hello everyone, I apologize if this information is listed elsewhere. If anything, I am hoping to understand strategies being employed at large and their results.

I am going through the older LSAT course. For each question type, the section begins with a brief summary of the question type followed by example questions and then a series of drills ranging in difficulty. These drills all pull from prep tests 17 - 35 from my understanding with the exceptions of some that generate from 40 - 60s.

In perusing the comments for each drill, there seems to be a fair mix of those who time those drills and those who don't. Which should I be doing?

That may be a loaded question because 'should' almost certainly depends on what works best for the individual (unless, of course, the instructor suggested one way to my ignorance). Whether to time or not seems ultimately to present a tradeoff between ensuring a base-level understanding and timing. Improving timing will have not benefit if the questions are not correct. And, to a lesser extent, your accuracy in questions can only get you so far under time constraints.

So, what has worked (and is working) for everyone? Up to this point, I haven't timed any of the drills. I was planning on completing each question-type section and doing timed drills of prep tests 1 - 16. But is it wasting practice tests to not be timing every single one? I would so appreciate hearing everyone's strategies - especially if it resulted in great results. Thanks!

Hi! For some reason 7Sage is not allowing me to access the drills and prep tests even though I have purchased the law hub advantage subscription. On law hub it ways that my account is active, so I'm not sure how to connect it. Any help would be appreciated!

For quite a while my LSAT score was stagnating in the low 150s flash forward to three weeks ago I took a prep test and scored a 156 which was the best i have ever done. I have done two more pts excepting them to be the same or higher than my best pt they were both low 150s again. I am struggling to go from 150s-160s any advice it feels like I improve do badly and loose my progress I registered for august but I worry that I will not be consistently scoring in the 160s goal score of 165.

Hello there, I have just purchased the core plan a few days ago. However I am wanting to refund the subscription. I have come to find out that I must have LawHub advantage to simply have access to 7sage. I would rather just use the LawHub Advantage, how can I do this?

Hello,

I recently took the April LSAT and scored signfiicantly lower than I did on practice tests. I was averaging 168-173 on a number of PTs, but scored a 158 on the real thing!! I didn't buy Score Preview so am stuck with that score.

I've started studying again and have taken two tests - I got a 175 on one and a 171 on the other. My GPA was a 3.80 in college.

In short I'm wondering if my 158 will ruin any chance that I get accepted into a T14. I know they report the top score, but this is a pretty glaring result, does anyone have any insights here?

Hi all,

I have been studying for 2 months now and my score has not been all over the place it seems from between 145-148. Any advice on how I can change my studying to get to my goal score 160 by October. As of right now I just started using 7sage and I am going through the curriculum and have taken two exams averaging a 148. I just feel stuck and overwhelmed.

Hi friends, new learner here! I'm on the Skill Builder section of the Complex Arguments foundational lessons (https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/skill-builder-complex-arguments/) and am quite lost on how to parse out Question 5.4:

"We see that our village solely trains personnel for specific trades. These individuals' lives would change dramatically if the programming failed. So it follows, proposition to build a new enterprise—although challenging—truly has merit. Sure a blacksmith center in the village after some sweat, monetary donations, and perseverance might be a reality. It just seems making a pitch for a blacksmith center really matters."

I've been reading and re-reading this question trying to figure out A) what this passage is even saying [it doesn't make sense to me!], and B) how the premises/conclusions were determined.

My initial reaction was the following:

Appreciate any help here! TY :-)

So, I'm curious what the most effective drill methods were for all of you. I'm giving myself 3 months to study and this is my first week of studying. I'm thinking right now to spend 1.5 hours of drilling a day but I'm curious how others have approached this and how effective you felt your method was... Thank you!

I was wondering if the conditional indicators are used in the logical reasoning questions, or is it just for the logic games that are no longer going to be on the LSAT. I am preparing for the next cycle and don't want to cover anything that won't help me. Thanks!

I am studying for the August LSAT, trying to make it consistently into the mid 170s. I average about -3 to -4 on RC and -1 to -3 on LR. What would be your recommendations to try to consistently go -1/0 on LR and bring RC consistently to -3 or better.

i took my first two PT (other than my diagnostic) over a year ago after about 2 weeks of studying using the powerscore books, and scored a 165 and 168 respectively (which i know are more than decent!). i took a break from studying since school & work were super busy. i started up again earlier this month with 7sage and am planning to take it in september, but i feel like i'm not improving at all or even getting worse, especially in LR. my LR scores are almost the same as my initial diagnostic and two PTs last year. when i revise my wrong answers, i feel like i grasp the individual question but am unable to reapply the theories/methods elsewhere.

i'm aiming for a score in the low 170s. any advice for this kind of plateau—or should i just keep at it and be patient (i am a very impatient person when it comes to my studies)? or should i change up my method (slow down w the curricula, drill more, etc.)? i've just been going through the curriculum and i'd say i am about 70% through.

sometimes i feel like i just need to chill and take everything in but i physically cannot be chill in general. and comparing myself to my diagnostics last year & how quickly i made progress back then makes me a little frustrated. this post is a bit long but if there's any advice for how to better frame my studies/approach in general, i would really appreciate it.

I created a new 7sage account because I decided to take the LSAT. However, my lawhub account is connected to my old 7sage account and I cannot connect it to my new 7sage account.

Hey guys!

Looking for some advice :) I have been studying for about the past 8 months, and have gone from a diagnostic of 144 (-14 LG, -12 LR, -14 RC) to my most recent pt of 167 (-2 LG, -4 LR, -5 RC). I am shooting for a 170 on this June LSAT, which is 3 weeks away. I'm taking a break from work so that I can just go all in on studying. I've finished the entire 7sage syllabus (which is the main thing that has helped me so far), and am halfway through Reading Comp Hero.

What should I focus on for the next 3 weeks? Any advice would be greatly appreciated:)

I'm hoping to get a 170 on the June test (6/6/24). Usually I do the best with logic games (-1/-0). Lately, I'm feeling like I'm regressing as I get closer to my test date. Any tips? Ways to stay motivated?

Here's a breakdown of my PTs (I've been taking 2-3 a week for the past few weeks, but my earliest one was 6 months ago):

PT66 - 149 (earliest)

PT68 - 149

PT20 - 159

PT47 - 165

PTJ07 -163

PT72 - 163

PT76 - 167

PT77 - 162

PT79 - 167

PT80 - 171 (when I started doing 2-3 a week)

PT81 - 166

PT82 - 168

PT83 - 177

PT84 - 168

PT85 - 169

PT86 - 166

PT87 - 167

PT88 - 166 (today)

Any help/advice/motivation would be appreciated :)
