Hi all! Does anyone have any wrong answer journals or LSAT checklist templates for curriculum V2 (for those taking the LSAT after June 2024)? I would love to keep track of my answer choices and progress and just started the logical reasoning section. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!!

This is the one I was previously using, but no longer works since I switched to V2: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1gpOWHerIw8RBo1PbgIJtN9wIpIKpTl3SFClYzaEBsIo/edit#gid=0

So, I am starting 7Sage today. I plan to take the LSAT in January (giving myself enough time to study) for around 6 hours weekly. I have ADHD, so I was planning on using the study schedule that 7Sage can make for the added structure. I don't see a diagnostic test on there. I found the link, but should I hold off on it? I do want to know my baseline and what my natural strengths are, but I've never been great at taking standardized tests, and I am worried that if I get a low score, I will be discouraged.

I finished 1L at the Fordham Law. I want to share.

The Cost of Attendance was $116,782

Tuition was (the following year more) $71,224

Class size for 1L: 93 (the number of people in my classroom).

My points about Fordham law:

The quality of education: as low as it gets.

The professors need to be more engaging and interested in their topic.

Most students would not attend the classes if not the mandatory attendance.

I have a law degree and practiced law outside of the US. And I loved it. But experience in Fordham law school would make me feel the opposite.

"Only" In conditionals

Can someone help me with the word "only." It is a word that is giving me so many headaches when trying to do conditionals. I seem to be having trouble when only is mixed with "will"

I am doing the skill builders on this lesson - https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/skill-builder-kick-it-up-to-the-domain/

I am having trouble with question #12:

High school teachers who teach AP courses will only tutor students they believe to be in danger of failing and they believe that only students who missed Monday’s class are in danger of failing.

From previous classes, we have learned that "only" is a necessary conditional indicator. But when it comes to statements above, I seem to get confused. In cases like these, does only modify the "second action"

I will only go to class on Mondays and Wednesdays.

Tim will only write the exam when he is ready

I will only make eggs if they are fresh

Would this be the same as:

I will go to class only on Mondays and Wednesdays

Tim will write the exam only when he is ready

I will make eggs only if they are fresh

I am so stress with this upcoming test. First, because it will be the last with LG, so I am expecting the worst, to have the most difficult games ever. Second, I am getting loose in LR cause my focus is LG that I am getting incorrect responses, and when I do the blind review i get them correct, and then I think why I cannot think when I am under time pressure. Can someone give me an advise ??? I know my Core curriculum fundamentals are there.

Hello everyone,

I am considering changing my test from June to August. I have been scoring in the low 160's and would like to score in 165-170. My highest PT was a 165. I have taken about 15 practice tests. Logic Games is my best section but not by that much, usually 4-6 questions are missed on average.

Given other posts and listening to some podcasts, it seems that the obvious choice is to push to August. In other words, if not achieving a goal score in PTs, push it to a later date.

I am hesitant about changing from June to August because I'd really like to just give the LSAT a go and see how it turns out. I know it seems naive, but I've been studying for 3-4 months and feel like I finally have the momentum to try it. Additionally, I don't know if I'll be able to mantain the same schedule that has allowed me to improve thus far.

I think I would be comfortable taking it again in August. Please let me know what you guys think and happy to answer any follow-up questions in the comments. Thank you in advance for your suggestions and guidance, it does mean a lot.

Drilling/PT Timed LR Section

Hi everyone! Is there a way I can adjust the "unlimited time" on drills in the a specific LR section? Or can I use a prep test to drill the section with the time limit? The only problem with that is I cannot click on the section I want to do.

I just started 7sage 2 weeks ago and Im already done 100% of the foundations and just strating LR but i just noticed that V2 has been changed to not include the LG which i wont need since im taking the Sept LSAT. Im wondering if i should start over on V2 or just skip to LR on V2. Is there a huge difference in the foundations. im also confused as to why i cant switch and keep my progress. is it worth it for me to switch

Hi All! Fairly silly question but I was wondering what exactly the test format looks like for the official LSAT. When doing practice questions you can chose between 7sage format or standard format - is the standard one comparable to the actual format on the test? I read somewhere that when you're taking the LSAT for RC that there's a function that allows you to search words in the passage is this true? Additionally if anyone with insights could tell me about the paper and pencil format of the test that would be super helpful too. Thanks!

7Sage letting me down

I had months of data in the old format and now it's all inaccessible when I'm drilling in the new format. #help can someone on the team please help me transfer my data (questions taken at the very least) from the old format to the new format? The auto builder is useless without my LR data and I don't want to keep repeating questions in my drills

Seems to be that I am getting the most points off because of my lack of good timing. Does anyone have recommendations on how I can improve this? I want to take the LSAT in June before LG is gone, being that LG is my best section.

I don't know how else to describe it. I'm extremely worried that i'm going to finish all of these powerscore bibles and all of these early preptests like PT40-50 and then suddenly the sections are going to get way harder when I get into PT70-90. I already know that the RC gets harder on the more recent PT's which freaks me out. It makes me think all of this work I've done in the core curriculum etc is going to keep a good score out of my reach

I was a community college to state school grad that pieced together a bachelors degree from random credits and studied for the LSAT while working and supporting a family. I started with a 154 and took the LSAT seven times. My application was a C&F nightmare and reading the first personal statement I applied with makes me cringe so hard I get a headache.

This community, including @"J.Y. Ping", @"David Busis", @"Cant Get Right", @Mike_Ross and way too many other people to mention, helped me unfuck my approach to this test and admissions. @"Nora Miller" basically got me into law school and set me on a path to become the somewhat serviceable writer I am today. Three years later, I've won multiple national bar association essay competitions, published with HLS, and worked as a law review editor. I've taught written advocacy for our LLM program and at our local prisons, and worked death penalty cases that I'll (hopefully) be taking with me as part of my pro bono practice. I've CALI'ed four classes and "passed" the UBE with an approximate 98th percentile score. Doing a second non-UBE bar exam before heading off to a big law litigation job.

Hopefully that doesn't sound too pretentious. The points I'm trying to make are (1) that if I can do it, anyone can do it... including you, and (2) I wouldn't have achieved any of that without 7sage and the great people here—the people I learned from, the people who allowed me to tutor them (a great way to improve your own understanding of the test), and the people who were willing to candidly tell me all the ways my application sucked or how dumb my essay about surfing in Boston was.

Do hit me with any questions, but like most people who pass through 7sage, my time here is probably done after this. Besides, I think I have to retire the username now that I haz JD. Make use of this great community, help each other out, and don't give up.

It's been real. Thanks 7sage.

As we all know LGs are gone in August. My plan is to take one test prior to August and then the August exam as well (once with LGs, once without).

So my question is: is there a way to simulate a test without LGs so we can see our relative score with and without the section. I expect that my overall score will go up without the LG section but I wasn't sure if it was possible to see since the test has not been administered this way yet. Thanks in advance for the help!

Edit: I did more research and found the answer to my own question! I figured I would post it here in case anybody is wondering the same.

Answer: We've also updated our digital tester so that you can take PrepTests with two LR sections and no Logic Games section. To take a PrepTest in the new format, simply navigate to Practice->PrepTests in the main menu and click on a PrepTest. Once you're on the page for the PrepTest, click the drop-down menu to the right of the name of the PrepTest number and select “August 2024 3-section LSAT (LR, LR, RC).”
