When will LSAC release fall LSAT dates?

Looking to hear from individuals who were able to break into the 170's or atleast a 170. I've been PTing in the mid 160's and BR'ing in the high 160s. I definitely have more studying to do and know I haven't hit a plateau yet, but I'm curious what you feel helped you make that jump specifically? Did you change your studying, did something click, a certain practice you started implementing, or just time and consistency?

Thanks :)

Is it possible to create a prep test for the new format? Right now I cannot simulate a real test environment.

Hello All,

Can anyone speak to whether you chose to use your testing accommodation or not when taking the LSAT? And do you feel it is a hindrance to use it when taking the test in a testing center vs compute test at home?

I’m asking because I took one test and I did not use my usual testing accommodations . And then I took the next one at a test site and used my accommodations. To my dismay I did 11 points worse than I did when I tested without my accommodations. Also the test site was very noisy and disorganized which I reported to LSAC. I’m just trying to figure out if I should no longer use my accommodations. It felt like it was a situation that culminated into me doing worse and I felt I was treated differently - myself and another test taker who also had accommodation. We had to wait an hour to start our test and that caused a lot of anxiety at least for me. Thank you.

Hopefully it's ok to post this here. I just want to let aspiring black lawyers (or anybody else at a disadvantage due to socioeconomic circumstances), that there is an alternative to the LSAT. It's called the JD Next. It will test your actually ability to understand the law, and give you a fair chance at getting into law school- unlike the LSAT. Google it. Registration is open now!

I have no idea what happened. I have been studying for months and have had regular ups and downs. A week ago, I was the most confident I have ever been. I felt like I was getting everything right, and it was all making sense to me. I don't know what has changed, but I suddenly don't understand anything. Like, I can't even diagram basic lawgic anymore when just a week ago it seemed like second nature. I am now missing questions that I have never missed and am feeling like I am taking huge steps backwards. Wondering if anyone else has felt something similar and how you got back to feeling confident and competent.

For drilling questions they really need to remove the checkmark from automatically completing the drill. I've clicked the checkmark multiple times and have ended up ending my drill wayy too early.

Please add an additional step in order to make sure the quiz is submitted, thank you!

is it possible to have text to speech enabled on 7sage? i would like to that esp for rc passages

Love to build a study group!

Hi everyone. I'm currently scheduled for the April 2024 LSAT administration but I want to push it back to August '24 to avoid the Logic Games section and to give myself more time to utilize 7Sage to prepare for the test. My issue is that the registration isn't currently open and from previous years it looks like you can't register until May for the August test. If that's true, I'll be in a pickle because the deadline to change my test date free of charge is at the end of this month, as well as the fact that I'm scheduled for April but the sign-up wouldn't be until May so I'd be forced into withdrawing my registration for the LSAT altogether by February 29th and then signing up for the August LSAT when it opens. I'm wondering if it could be an option to switch dates to the June test then switch to the August date when registration opens without incurring a penalty/paying more as a result of pushing my test date. Does anyone have any advice or insight into this matter that could be helpful for my situation? Additionally, I couldn't find Ithaca, NY as a test administration site on the LSAC website. Ithaca College and Cornell used to administer the LSAT so I'm curious if they're no longer offering it there and not sure who to contact for that information. Many thanks in advance for any advice/insight!

Hello- I am wanting to retake some of the practice tests because I am ahead of schedule for my test date. How can I go back and retake/delete the test I have previously taken?

If you're ready to get more practice taking a full LSAT Prep Test under simulated online proctor conditions, you're in the right place. The next Proctored PT will take place on Saturday February 3 at 1:00 PM.

Looking forward to the Blind Review sessions on Monday. The links to join are below, and if you have a Live subscription you can access the recordings here for last week's (LR) and (RC) Blind Review classes on PT72. We had fun discussing a not-so-fun topic of theoretical and clinical "equipoise" in that third RC passage. We also picked each others' brains on lots of LR questions, namely that tough Strengthen question near the end of the section about "phenazines," or as we decided to call them, "P's."LSAT hack! Replace long, hard-to-read words with their first letter!

Here's how our Proctored PTs work:

Once you sign up, you'll receive an email from Zoom with the link to join the meeting.

Select a PT that you want to take for the proctored test. This week's recommended PT is test 74; you're encouraged to attend the associated Blind Review sessions on Monday! (LR Review | RC Review). You can take the PT through 7Sage, or- if you want to simulate real test-day conditions- you can log into LawHub and take it there.

Show up to the Zoom meeting 10 minutes before the scheduled start time (12:50 PM ET). You will all be prompted to complete a room scan (similar to the test-day security measures) at the same time and then put into a breakout room by yourself to complete the test.

Simulate the test! Our 7Sage Proctors will monitor the testing process for the duration of your test and even simulate a pesky interruption. The Proctor will ask if anyone would like to be interrupted at the beginning of the session, and you will have the chance to indicate your preference. If only the Prometric proctors would be so kind as to ask! If you have any approved accommodations, please let us know via private chat at the beginning of the session as well––you will be able to test with those.

If you have any questions, please email bailey.luber@7sage.com. We hope to see you there!

Any advice for someone who would like to write for the first time in April but has not started the curriculum? It looks as if there is a lot of material to cover. Is it necessary that one go through everything? Thanks

Hi all,

Whenever I try to make a drill of 15 or 25 LR questions made from specific PrepTests with all tags highlighted, I get an error stating: "Sorry, we were not able to create a drill based on your criteria. Please try again."

Whenever I do with 15 LR questions, I get the error message above but the drill is eventually created showing up in the "Show Existing Drills" section. A bit of an annoyance, but at the end of the day I get the drill so no harm there.

However, whenever I do it with 25, no drill is created even after a period of time.

I've attached some imgur links showing the criteria I've highlighted for the drills.

For reference, I'm using the latest version of Chrome on macOS 14.1.2.

Any way to fix this or will I have to make my own custom 25 question drills via the advanced builder?

Thank you!

I have dreamed of making this post. I finally reached my goal score of 159 on my third writing of the LSAT. 7Sage is by far the best LSAT company overall. The drilling aspect of the website is phenomenal. There is no better way to prepare for the LSAT than drilling, and 7Sage allows students to organize and keep track of drills.

Thank you 7Sage. I have applied to 6 Law Schools and here is hoping I get in. God bless you all.

Just wanted to write this as an appreciation of the service you guys offer. I took my first cold diagnostic and got a 145 at the beginning of October. Just got the January LSAT score today of 160. Didn't have my hopes up initially, but to my surprise got a good enough score to get me into my target schools for next fall. Thanks JY! One thing I will say, as I wasn't one to study religiously, just try to master the logic games while they are still available. I believe the LG are the easiest way to drive your score up, understand the gameboards and different setups. I just drilled LG for 2 weeks and it stuck to me like glue. I guess for anyone looking to improve their score, just try to have fun with the logic games. It is like solving a puzzle and get to a point where you have done the same "puzzle" so much that you can do it with your eyes close. I am not gonna sit here and act like I wasn't awful at LG at first, but JY made it so they were fun. That's mainly my advice, master the LG and make up for missed questions in other sections (my reading comp scores were quite bad haha). Also don't overwhelm yourself with practice tests, I took one a day for the 3 weeks leading up to my LSAT, and found that to be the most helpful solution. Thanks JY and the 7sage team for creating such an easy to use platform, I don't think I would've done remotely as well without it.

I took the LSAT again for the 2nd time this Jan, let’s just say I cried all morning yesterday! I have not been having the best of luck with this test but I am determined to get better and work harder. If anyone is looking for a study partner or group hmu! I had a partner a few months before taking it and he canceled after the our second meeting. Message me or comment 🩵

Thank you 7sage! It has been a long 2 years, but I am officially thrilled with my final outcome. Best of luck studying everyone! You can do it, it just might take a bit

Appreciation post to 7Sage. Thank you for the platform and the study materials. I started studying back in April 2023 and my first diagnostic was a 145. I was pretty discouraged. This test seems to have a mental component to it that proved to be half the battle for me. After I finished the core curriculum I took the September LSAT without having taken any practice tests prior. I ended up scoring a 149 and felt sorely disappointed. I decided to retake the exam in January. From September to January, I studied my brains out but I also gave myself more time to relax and have fun. I ended up taking 10 practice tests before January. On my last 3 practice tests before I took the actual LSAT I scored 156, 157, and then a 158. I just got my score released today for the January 2024 LSAT and my score came back a 160.

There were times where I thought I would never see myself into the 160's. For anyone who is wondering if they have it within themselves, YOU DO! Practice tests really helped me to get rid of my nerves and also to just get more familiar with the timing. You really can improve as much as you want on this test. So don't give up and keep fighting. Meditate, pray, and relax more! It helped me. But also be prepared to dedicate hours and hours of studying because it took me about 8 months to get to this point. It was all worth it for me though!

I can't believe I am finally done studying for the LSAT. It has been a long-time coming. Working a full time job and managing applications has made it difficult to study to say the least. I took the November LSAT and scored a 158. I just got my score for January and I got 165! I must admit that after taking the January LSAT I was so done with the test, hoping I did my best so I wouldn't have to retake it. My mental health has improved so much since I stopped studying for the test. I know the process is hard, but let me tell you how liberated you feel after you're done with the test. I appreciate 7Sage for providing me with a fee waiver because studying for this test is also resource-dependent. I met so many amazing people in the live classes, I love how much we become a community as we struggle together on this test. Also, shout-out to the amazing tutors here at 7Sage and the 7Sage podcast. I took the in-person class in NYC (w/ Henry) and it was so worth it. As the test transitions to being more LR focused, I would highly suggest supplementing your studies with The Loophole. I read the book the last month of my studies and it helped me so much with LR. I know I could continue to study for the test and aim to score higher, but I am so burnt out. I already have been accepted to my state school with a good scholarship package and I am waiting to hear from more schools. Please reach out if you have any questions, I am happy to help :)

Hi all, I am planning on taking the LSAT in April, June or both and was wondering what the rules are in regard to reading passages/stimuli out loud. I have developed a bit of a habit of doing this when practicing and taking PTs. I was not sure given I have not yet taken a proctored PT or am familiar with the portal conditions. Can anyone speak to this? I figured I would get ahead of this if it is not allowed so I can get rid of the habit.

Hello! I am back to studying for the LSAT (in April/June) after previously taking it twice. I took it once in 2019 and once in 2021. I was so sure that 2021 was going to be the last time I took the test, I ended up using most of the recent prep tests. Now 3 years later, I have technically already taken a bunch of the most recent prep tests. Have folks experienced this before? Any advice on how to handle? I don't really expect myself to remember prep tests from 3+ years ago so I am wondering if I should just delete my old tests and redo those tests since they are the most like the tests I am studying for. But, I don't want to delete old tests/data if retaking tests I've already taken won't actually be helpful. Any thoughts or experiences from others? Thanks!

Is there anyway to get around not deleting an entire prep test because of one section? I had to pause PT49 section 3 before I even started it and now it says it is completed. Is there really no way for me to retake that one section? I felt really good about section 2 and do not want to delete my answers! Is there a way I could see the answers I put, delete the test, and then plug those answers in for the section I did take?
