Hi, just wondering if it’s recommended to do 4 section PT’s to get your stamina up? Everytime or how often? And how can I best do this if I’m using the August test format?

You're working extremely hard to reach your goals, and if you continue to keep going until test date I promise you that you will reach your desired goals. Let's speak it into existence, I'll start:

I'm going to get above 175 on the November 2021 LSAT

Hi all,

I have started studying for the LSAT in June (on and off during the summer) with a diagnostic in the low 150s. As I have had a busy schedule, I am still doing to core curriculum (LG at the moment) and doing every single drill. I will have more time to dedicate to LSAT from now on. I am aiming at 175+ ideally but haven't been doing that many PTs, just serious drills. I wonder if I should grind and take the April LSAT (and do it again in June if needed) or only the June LSAT (I am abroad so no other options).

Any advice?

I have been studying since January and I have completed 20% of the syllabus, my lsat is in April and I do not plan on doing another LSAT as I have to apply for Law school and I plan on going this year. I want to get around a 160. I did my first PT at the start and I got a 143. I'm confused on what is the most effective way I should be studying with the time I have right now.

From the past week I have decided that everyday I will be doing drills and practicing one specific type of question whether that is LR or LG. I am not doing the syllabus in order anymore and I will skip to the parts where the types of questions are explained so I have a brief idea on how to approach them. Please give me suggestions and the plan I should be incorporating to reach my goal. Thank you

Hey 7Sagers,

I'm thrilled to announce the launch of 7Sage’s In-Person Class program! We are offering LSAT classes in six cities this winter ahead of the April and June LSATs.

We have launched a second NYC class which will run on Thursdays starting January 25th. Reserve your spot at 7sage.com/in-person-classes/.

Each 12-week class is led by a top-scoring 7Sage instructor. Our classes offer structured guidance from an expert, and a chance to build community with fellow 7Sagers. All of our winter classes comes with a free three months of 7Sage Core + Live so that you can take advantage of all our digital resources alongside the class's custom program.

We’re planning to expand to more locations this summer—let us know if you’d like us to bring an in-person class to your city!

Winter Cities:

I took the february LSAT today, and was interrupted a dozen times by the proctor. Granted, it was mostly due to me reading the questions aloud. I was also interrupted to fix my camera, and they would not pause the clock while I was made to move the camera.

I have ADHD and anxiety, and this is on file because I received an extra 10 mintue break. My question is whether or not anyone has ever tried to take the backup exam, by filing a test day complaint, and been denied? Do you guys think they will denie me? Once I had been interrupted a few times, it was very hard to regather my train of thought (especially due to my adhd), and I ended up guessing on way more questions than any practice test that I have ever taken!

The videos make learning way easier how come they end now?

I haven’t seen any discussion on this, but has there been any reason to believe that the RC or LR will be “harder” per se, or introduce new or old question types? I’m just trying to gauge how reflective PTing for it will be.

I’ve been PTing in the low to mid 160s (I should add that I haven’t been PTing much, I’ve probably completed 4-5 in the last 3 months because I had just finish the CC and was focused on drilling). My PT last week was 162 (which was lower than my last) and 167 BR. I made a lot of silly mistakes on it such as missing an “except” in question stem and misreading a premise to say the opposite. Since then I’ve been really hammering my main areas of weakness and taking time to go over my thinking. Anyway, since I was bored at work today I decided to do an Untimed PT since I knew I’d be interrupted. I scored a 175 (UNTIMED**) and a 176 BR. I just really don’t know what I should take away from this. I know this isn’t reflective of my score for a timed test. I don’t have any issue with timing in that I always finish and have a few min left over to go back, but can I infer that it’s an issue of not being able to apply my deeper knowledge in a fast enough pace? I guess I’m asking what you guys would take away from this in terms of applying it to your studying and getting the score under timed conditions?

Hi,

I live in Idaho, took the January LSAT and I am now preparing for the April LSAT. Looking for a study buddy in the same time zone so we can chat/zoom about topics. Message me if interested.

Thanks!

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.

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 :)

Hi all,

I recently took the January LSAT and scored a 160. I'm planning to take the April LSAT with the intention of scoring a 165. How should I structure my study schedule moving forward? Currently, I'm at a 0/-2 for LG, -5/-9 for LR, and -12 for RC.

Should I solely focus on drilling my weak areas and PT's? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

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 10 at 1:00 PM.

Thanks to all who could come last week to the PT and BR sessions. On Monday, we were super productive and discussed P2, P3, and P4 of PT74's RC (check out the recording here), focusing the most on that nuanced Law Comparative passage. In the LR session, we attacked plenty of questions between Q8 and Q23, debating answer choices and whether bacteria is actually living (P.S.- the answer did give us a hint there in saying that bacteria "thrive." Do rocks or other nonliving things "thrive?"). Find the LR Blind Review Recording here!

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 75; you're encouraged to attend the associated Blind Review sessions on Monday and Tuesday! (BR Series). 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!

One of the greatest storytellers on youtube. Watch this and get out there and study for the LSAT!

When will LSAC release fall LSAT dates?

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

Hey 7Sagers,

I'm happy to announce the launch of our Online LSAT Fundamentals Class, which will run on Mondays from 6:00–9:00 ET, starting March 18.

This 12-week class is led by a top-scoring 7Sage instructor. Our classes offer structured guidance from an expert and a chance to build community with fellow 7Sagers. Our virtual classes come with a free three months of 7Sage Core + Live so that you can take advantage of all our digital resources alongside the class's custom program. You can reserve your spot at our special discounted price of $599 here: https://classic.7sage.com/in-person-classes/.

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

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!

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!

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?

I've had kind of a rough history with the LSAT. My first exam was in Jan 2021. In 2023, I took the exam 3 times (Jan, Aug, October) and then took it in January of 2024. Long story short, I really pressured myself to get a great score for the 2023 cycle and it backfired on me. For the Jan 2024 exam, I received some bad news about my grandma concerning her health before my exam and it severely impacted my performance.

I submitted an appeal to LSAC to register for the August 2024 exam, but they aren't reviewing appeals for the 2024-2025 cycle until registration for the August exam opens. Do I have a chance at getting my appeal approved?
