Hey everyone!

I'm looking for a study buddy and accountability partner for the LSAT living in the NY area.

I can meet weekly on Sundays in person and during the week via Skype or Google Hangout. I live in Nassau County, but I'd be comfortable traveling to Suffolk, Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Statem Island, the Bronx or Westchester.

Anyone interested??? You can send me a PM.

Hello...I have really bad test anxiety and money to spend so I was planning to go through with the January LSAT and see how I do. If I don't do well I am planning to take the February LSAT (already signed up). I score pretty decently on practice exams but my question is...does this look bad to admissions?

So i saw someone else with this idea for CC, i hope he/she doesnt mind that i am borrowing the idea.

I am currently in my PT/ intensive phase. I have already finished the CC and foolproofed games 1-35.

If anyone is interested in picking LR and RC sections from 7-50s to intensively review and speak out the underlying principles, i would love to listen and exchange ideas.

I find that, when it comes to this test everyone has strengths and things they can bring to the table, i would love to hear and try to employ yours and reciprocate if i can.

I will be studying full time come the end of this week. Comment and PM if your interested in a phone call or chat

So I have been studying for a few mmonths and just finished the core curriculum and I was wondering whether I should use all of the preptests or not. I have considered that I may have to take the LSAT a second time and was wondering whether I should leave a few of the preptests in pristine condiditon for potential later studying? for people who have taken a second LSAT what did you do and what would you recomend in studying for the first one and potentially for a second one

I want to re-do all of the Logical Reasoning Problem sets from the curriculum. I believe that much like Logic Games, Re-doing these problem sets can benefit me from a skills standpoint in identifying either why the correct answer is correct and/or why the 4 other answer choices are incorrect for each question type. As I do this, I will take notes of any and all trends I discover that will help me attack each question type quickly and accurately. I am wondering if anyone is also doing this and if so how do you schedule this review in your study schedule? As of now I am considering adapting Pacifico's Logic Games Attack strategy.

Is the percentile you rank in different for every test you take ? Meaning if I get a 149 on one lsat which tells me I’m in the 39th percentile then I get a 149 on another lsat will my percentile differ ?

Do law schools look at percentiles ?

Hey guys! Hope you are safe and healthy.

I am waitlisted at a T3 school. I have scoured archived Reddit posts, Spivey’s site, 7Sage, and countless blogs. I am basically trying to get a sense from individuals who have been in a similar situation and come out successfully of what you did to better your odds.

I know the basics of sending a tailored, to-the-point LOCI. However, on other things like phone calls I am less clear. I know that with phone contact less is more, however given that visits are unavailable it seems making at least one phone call attempt may be a good idea (and this school seems okay with that, based on their available waitlist information).

I am also considering an additional letter of recommendation as well as an LSAT retake. I know there are numerous things one can do, but I just wanted a general sense of someone’s “playbook.”

Also, please let me know the nature of the correspondence, when you were waitlisted, and when you were finally accepted. Thanks!

Hello,

So for the first time I broke through into the 160s range with a 162 in Blind Review but my actual score was a 153 (155 on average). Is this a good sign and how do I go about closing the gap and reaching a 162 on my actual test? My test is in January and I would like to get as close to my BR score as possible. For BR I had 4 wrong in LR, 6 in RC and 7 in LG (this was surprisingly bad but I was dealing with test 68 game 4, which is considered to be one of the hardest games ever and thus didn't make any improvements in my BR)

Its an issue of accuracy with my timing and I don't know how or if I can close the gap. Thank you 7sage community

Hey everyone, so since my fall semester just came to a close, I am about to start serious LSAT study again. I am pretty stressed about it all though, because for about a year and a half I’ve been studying the CC and full proofing LG. I have gotten to the point where I’m pretty comfortable with LG, but it has been so long since I’ve done any LR or RC. I am just concerned that all of the studying I did previous to fool proofing has been for nothing, since I didn’t keep up with it very well while I was fool proofing. I wanted to start taking PTs over the winter break, but I’m unsure if I’m ready since I haven’t done much LR training while I was foolproofing. So I guess my question is, how important is consistency if I’ve already studied for so long? Should I go ahead and begin practice testing, or should I redo all of the CC on LR and RC, which initially took me about 6 months?

Hello,

I am currently looking for a tutor for my January LSAT. I had one for the October LSAT, who was great. I just want to try out new tutoring styles to see if one will click. I reached out a few from the list of tutors on 7sage, but only one responded, leading me to believe not all are currently active. If you have any suggestions of a good tutor (esp for an ESL student scoring in the 150’s), please comment below!

Thank you in advance!

Hi guys, I am currently a 0L and will be starting law school in fall of 2021. I have been looking into the 7sage law school explained courses and was wondering if anyone can weigh in on the pros and cons of it? Additionally, do you find the courses helpful and what part of the course has been most helpful to you? I know it's a relatively new addition to 7sage so I wanted to get some feedback from actual students before signing up for the whole course so any thoughts would be appreciated. I just want to get my feet wet before diving into law school so I at least have a sense of what I'm getting myself into before 1L starts lolol

Hi!

So I have a question that I could use some advice on. I have been prepping for the January LSAT for a couple months now, and a few weeks ago I was scoring fairly high/where I wanted to. Recently, using more recent practice tests, I have been scoring a little lower and seemingly plateauing around 169. I am not upset with this score of course, but just wonder if I could improve more for a later date. My main question is whether it is a better idea to just take it in January, see what I get, and potentially keep prepping for April or to put January off and just take April instead (February not an option). How does it look to send in multiple LSAT scores to law schools?

Thank you in advance!

All else being equal, what #s are the "best" PTs to be taking as you head into test day? I've been taking PTs from all over and would like to know if there are any that I should be focusing before November.

Hi everyone,

When taking timed practice tests, do you always attempt to select/eliminate answer choices with 100% confidence (otherwise flagging questions for Blind Review) as suggested? I feel like that would take away from opportunities where you could identify an answer as 100% correct and move on to the next question, thus saving time.

My speed sucks and I feel like I'd need to roll with the correct answer on questions as soon as I see one in order to see my full potential. I suppose I could flag those answers anyways to look at during Blind Review to validate the other answer choices are incorrect.

I'd love to hear your thoughts here.

Hi! So I have narrowed down my weak spots in LR and want to make the most efficient use of my time before the Nov LSAT.

How would you suggest is the best way to drill LR and blind review my drills?

Also, for anyone writing in Nov, what does your study schedule 3 weeks out look like? And for anyone who has written, what are some study tips leading up to test day you would recommend?

Thank you!!

I am looking for someone who would like to study together who lives in Los Angeles. Maybe once a week? I am prepping for the December 2nd test. It will be my first time. My diagnostic June 2007 score was 162, however, I feel like that was partly luck, as I guessed on quite a few questions. I would say my areas of strength are well rounded but speed is my greatest weakness. I think explaining what you know to someone is the best way to improve. I am going with the 3 month 7sage package after I finish the free trial. Let me know if anyone is interested. Thanks!
