Hi, I'm a new starter for LSAT - having read the Trainer, and started the courses and drills on 7Sage about a week ago.

I am a bit frustrated by the time pressure, cuz every guidebook tells you to complete certain steps when solving the questions, e.g. read the stem, stimulus, and the answers, then anticipate, eliminate and confirm the right answer, etc. But, however willing I am to complete all these steps, there's simply not enough time for me even just to read everything, not to mention the reasoning process, with RC especially so.

I'm not sure if this is the same for every new beginner, or more challenging for me as a non-native speaker - my job is an interpreter and I'm doing okay, so I would assume my language skills are not the biggest problem.

Are there any tips for me to increase my speed, the reading speed and the overall speed? Is such frustration over time pressure a common process for any new starter? How do you overcome it or improve on it please?

Please help!!! Many many thanks!

Sometimes when I load a new lesson in the syllabus, the video playback controls like video speed do not show, just the time and play button. If I refresh, sometimes it shows up. But does anyone know why this is or how I can fix it?

Hello everyone. I have been studying here for the last few months. I plan on taking the lsat in 2024. However, I have realized that if you want to take the test remotely, you cannot do so on a Chromebook. Even if you want to take the test at an in person center, the lsat writing portion still has to be done remotely, and Chromebooks are still not allowed for that.

I have found some old posts online saying that if you request an accommodation, they will send you a test-appropriate device which you later return. However, these posts are all several years old, and I am not sure if they still do this. I can find very little about this online, and I wasn't sure where else to reach out but here. If anyone has some relevant knowledge/experience, I would greatly appreciate it.

So, when I am reviewing my answers on a PT, and 9/10 of the answers I get correct say that "__ selected this, with an average score of 165", what does that mean? Should I be getting around that score?

Good evening 7 sage,

I was curious and wanted to ask if anyone else has signed up for the 7 sage in person winter classes-NYC? I signed up and are using the payment plan option. I also wanted to know if 7 sage will provide us with an address. I haven't received an address yet and was wondering if anyone is in the same boat or knows if they provide it closer to the start date, thank you.

got into law school and when i got hired at firm 6 months ago and they asked i said i’d be applying in the next few years or haven’t thought about it besides speculating yet and want experience first. when i put in my notice how do i do it without completely tarnishing their view of me or without screwing them over? was advised to do this because everyone is replaceable and should look out for my own interests first and not have to disclose everything until timing is right, part of me feels unethical to lie and or to be honest about going to law school. also know that the bar contacts every place of employment. Pls no passive or unhelpful comments, clearly i am overthinking this and so sorry for the jumble but really need concrete advice and help as to what to do.

For the past few days when I go to create drills, it's been super slow and laggy. It's been taking super long to load, and just being slow in general. Anyone else having this issue?

Hi, I'm restarting studying for the LSAT again, and I had this list of pinned questions for logical reasoning.

I was wondering how I can unpin all of those questions so I can sort of start fresh? Is there a way to unpin all by deleting history or do I have to go through all of them manually?

Thank you.

In the Core curriculum, we are told that for the purposes of formal logic, we are to interpret "or" as inclusive, because that's how the LSAT wants us to think. Is this also the default in law?

I'm not looking for legal advice. I saw this issue come to a head at my job where I currently work as a paralegal, and I was wondering if anyone had any thoughts or musings on this subject.

Here is the rule in question (in relevant part)

Wyoming Rule of Civil Procedure 26(a)(2)(B) states:

.... this disclosure must be accompanied by a written report prepared and signed by the witness or a disclosure signed by counsel for the party. The report must contain: ..."

One side argued that it was improper for the other party to submit both a written report prepared and signed by the witness AND a disclosure signed by counsel for the party.

Is there any general rule of logic that would allow a person to interpret the "or" in the statute as inclusive?

Hi!

I am wondering if others are solely using the 7Sage Syllabus and going through all of the lessons as their only studying type? I also have the PowerScore Bibles + LSAT Trainer - but I am unsure the best way to integrate resources to maximize my studying/learning experience.

How do you use the resources to maximize your learning?!

Started with a diagnostic of 139, feeling really hopeless that I wouldn't be able to get into any law school. Just took a few PTs throughout the week and I'm ranging from 168-170s. Just writing this discussion post to give hope to anyone studying. You guys can do this. Let's all not give up and crush our actual tests!

Hey guys! So my first test will be in April and I am a little confused. So, there will be a registration that comes out a few weeks before that allows you to select a date and time? Do you also select the location there? I have been approved for accommodations that are best served in person and not online, so is this not guaranteed? Finally, I know this may sound dumb but I am very paranoid about this whole process lol-are there guaranteed to be enough spots for those signed up for the April LSAT or is there a chance I get in the que too late and am SOL. Thanks!

Hi everyone. I am not entirely sure where to post this so I am posting this here. I was going through the RC lessons on V2 because I am planning on taking the test post-LG and I thought it looked a bit bare It only had explanations for science passages. When I looked at V1 I saw tons of material that doesn't show up on V2. I am not sure how difficult it is to fix but it would be greatly appreciated if I could look at the other RC material without having to use V1.

This is only my second week using 7sage and I am loving it so far!

After completing PT94 and a couple drills I noticed I'm unable to access the Explanation videos. The explanation button is instead replaced by a discuss button. I switched browsers and cleared the cache as instructed in a similar post experiencing the same issue but nothing has fixed it.

I've been using 7sage for almost a year and this is the first I encounter this problem. The video just keeps loading but won't change to the play button. But only for PT69 LR19 to 25, other PTs and Qs worked when I checked. Also, they worked when I tried to play them on my phone, so I am not sure what is going on...

I tried everything that's been said on this forum:

  • Deleted all caches and cookies
  • Tried Edge and Firefox

    Hi! I know that there are currently only LSAT tests in the beginning of 2024. But does anyone know if they will administer tests during the fall. August and etc.

    I scored 155 in October on the Official LSAT, never scored higher than 156 on PTs prior. I have only been on 7sage for 3 weeks, since I decided to test again. I watch the videos while I crochet, it's that simple, and I have gained so much understanding about the LSAT compared to before subscribing. It's truly insane. I am taking the LSAT again in January, and I am so excited/amazed to have broke 170s this morning, with a 171PT. Can't stop, won't stop, til January LSAT! Thank you 7Sage!

    I can't load the question table section under the lsat analytics page. Whenever I attempt to do so, I'm getting a Wordpress error message that says '504 Gateway Time-out'.

    I had requested help under the live chat, where I was told to try deleting the cache or switching to a different browser. I have tried both options and it didn't work. I've also tried using other devices, including the 7sage app, but I'm getting the same issue.

    Hi. i just love to think of the worst for fun lol (sos) but i take my first lsat in january, i think i'll have a decent score. i'm really just aiming for like a 155-157. but let's just say i don't get that score, would law schools look at a second, even 3rd attempt in a bad light? thanks.

    I have probably taken 5 practice test up to this point after having finished the curriculum and I am starting to feel defeated. My first test I scored a 162 and BRed to get a 169, which I was very happy with. Since that test, my average has been a 156 and I don’t know what happened. I feel confident when answering and then get my score and feel like I know nothing. Is this a normal thing when beginning prep tests? I have four months left of studying, so I am trying to gain advice from others!
