Anyone up for NON-American time zone study buddies? No hard feelings to my fellow American friends - I learned that when the time zone is different, it's pretty much impossible to keep each other accountable for studies. Msg me your telegram ID.

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!

I will give a gist about myself and hopefully you might find me a beneficial study partner.

I am a non traditional applicant (8 years out) and I have taken the exam 2x with my last score at 150. I am PTing in the mid 150s and looking to get somewhere in the 160s . Would like to have a study partner who can commit to 2x week (once during the weekday and 1 weekend day). Preferably someone who is Pting 155 or higher looking to get 160+. My strength is LG than LR than RC. I am ok with zoom or FT.

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!

Lately for my drills for LR, most of the questions I am taking and usually getting right are where other students that scored 165-170 also got right. Does this mean 7-Sage thinks I would also be scoring in this range? I feel like before, the questions I and others got right they had usually scored like a 158-162 or so.

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.

Hey there! Anyone in the Purdue area looking for LSAT study buddies? If so, LMK!

I’ve been studying for a while (longer than 6 months) and right before the Jan test everything began to really click for me. I was scoring in the high 150s and so close to the 160s consistently. I even became so confident to where I could actually explain why all answers were right/wrong. Y’all I literally started from a 120…anyways I listened to my partner and stopped studying for a few days and I feel like I’ve lost it. I went from -6 on LR to -13, it’s embarrassing. I take feb test soon and I was hoping to break into 160s by then. Help!

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

Hi everyone,

I have been with 7sage for a couple of months and it's been so helpful. I am able to understand the test well; however, I am struggling with getting the scores I want during a timed test. I am able to correct at least 25 questions more throughout the whole test when untimed. If anyone has thoughts or tips on how I should improve this please let me know. Thank you!!

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.

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 :)

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!

I’ll be taking the January 2023 test and am doing my first PT tomorrow (I know it’s a bit close). I’ll have accommodations for my disabilities with one of them being the option to pause the test anytime.

I looked at the 7sage practice test format and don’t see an option to pause the test anywhere. As I’m trying to replicate the real thing it’d be nice to have it on here. Is there no option on here or has anyone found it and I’m just overlooking it?

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!

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?

Pretty self explanatory. Made it halfway all the way through V1 foundation and half way through LR before I just decided to switch. Going through V2s foundations and so far it's repetitive info. Considering there is almost 3x as many foundation lessons though, debating whether to go through them or go right into LR. Those who switched after doing V1s foundations, did going through all of V2's help?

Hey everyone!

I'm studying for the April and June LSAT and was curious to know what type of study schedule worked best for people to prepare for the exam. I have studied a bit on and off for about 3 months.

Hello!

I have been considering law for almost 15 years now. I wanted to study political science and then go law school but due to family circumstances, I wasn’t able to. I had to go for civil engineering and get a job right after.

I graduated in 2017 with a civil engineering degree with a GPA of 3.43 from a state school. Worked since 2017 until now and also pursued a masters in engineering management from UCLA with a GPA of 3.85.

I am looking to start studying for the LSAT and hopefully go to law school like I have always wanted. But I am 30 years old now. Which means I will start law school in Fall 2025 and I will be 32 then.

I wonder if I still have a chance.. and if folks have gone through experiences like this. I am looking to push to get into a T14 but not sure if that train has passed for someone like me. I hope my professional of experience of over 6 years along with my science degrees would help.

Would love if folks can share if they went thru something similar. Thanks!

Hello,

I have been studying for the LSAT on and off and without much discipline over the last year and raised my score from a 146 to 158. I plan to take the LSAT in June 2024 and I need to score very high in order to get into good schools and get a good scholarship since my GPA is low for most of the law schools im interested (after this semester it will most likely be 3.4, 3.5 if I am lucky). I know this may be too broad of a question to ask, however I wanted to know what other people here think. Would it be possible to increase my score to a minimum of 175 from 158 ND in just 4 months (I know that is a hard score to get but I am willing to put in the hard work)?

Thank you. (And please dont sugar code it, give it to me straight 😂)

It would be really helpful to be able to add a RC or LR section to a preptest in the August 2024 format, to simulate the actual 4 section test. Right now there is no solid way to take a 4 section test in preparation for August 2024.

Hello 7Sage!

I am a May 2023 University of Georgia School of Law graduate. I am offering myself as a resource for anyone interested. Feel free to shoot me a PM! 7Sage was a resource for me; I always wanted to give back.

I am currently studying for the February 2024 bar exam. I am clerking for the New Mexico Supreme Court and have another clerkship planned for the New Mexico Court of Appeals afterward. I am interested in Hispanic and Latino civil rights work and advocacy—specifically, issues affecting the Nuevomexicano community.

1L summer, I worked for a Federal District Court Judge and an Immigration Law Firm. In Fall 2L, I did a D.C. Semester in Practice working for the Department of Justice Civil Rights Division. During the 2L summer, I worked at the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund's (MALDEF) National Public Policy office in D.C. I did an immigration clinic during my 3L and got my clerkship offers in the spring of 3L.

I had a 154 LSAT, a 3.5 GPA, a small state school, four years of work experience, and URM status. I do not say this bragging, but I proffer that I graduated cum laude to show your stats do not always correlate to a predetermined success in law school. For any other stats, ask!

I look forward to helping anyone I can!

Best,

Jonah

Interested to hear thoughts on this matter of a real struggle I am having given what I think is now a 28-year track record on the LSAT. I am coming to the conclusion; Law School will not be a reality if the LSAT is a true measure of success and ability in law school.

In college in the mid-90's I took the much-acclaimed Kaplan, took the LSAT in 1996 and scored a 143. I decided to forego law school and embarked on a corporate banking and ultimately a law enforcement career, from which I will retire this year. In 2022, I decided to reconsider law school, and signed up for 7Sage in February 2023. I have been studying on the site for a year now. My LSAT practice tests all have been in the 140's, and only once did I break 150 on blind review. I just completed a practice test (in the August 2024 mode without the logic games) to see where I was at and scored 138. After careful and thoughtful blind review, I scored 146.

I am never one to self-loathe so that is not the point here, but it just seems the LSAT has been a guaranteed measure of where I am at on this test, both then 28 years ago and now in 2024. I am no closer to performing well on the measure of law school admittance and success. I am truly considering cancelling 7Sage tonight and going on with life in other areas and reaffirming my decision to forego law school again, 28 years later.

I just would like to hear some other thoughts or struggles in this same vain if anyone has anything to share.

I just did the skill builder for drawing valid conclusions 1 and I can't wrap my head around it at all is there any other better more in depth explanation for it?

I know that only 3 sections are scored, but is it still 4 sections taken?
