Hi 7Sagers,

The LSAC informed us that the testing interface for the LSAT will undergo changes for the 2023-2024 cycle, beginning with the August 2023 test. As part of enhanced security measures, the use of keyboard commands like CTRL-F will no longer be possible. However, an alternative function, known as "find text", developed by the LawHub team, will offer similar features in a more secure manner. See the image below.

The "find text" function will be visible at the top center of every page, and it allows test takers to search for terms, with results being highlighted with orange tags or made identifiable for visually impaired users via a screen reader (see the image below). To reset the field, users just need to erase the searched term. It is important to note that this function cannot be dismissed and will be present on all LSAT pages.

For test takers to practice, the "find text" function will be implemented on all LawHub practice tests starting from August 1. Guidance on its use will be available in the "Need help?" section on LawHub. Any queries can be directed to licensingsupport@LSAC.org.

Are you allowed scratch paper during the reading comp section of the test? I know you are allowed it for logic games, just wondering if its allowed for the entire thing?? Thanks

It's my goal practice law in my home state of Pennsylvania, but I don't want to rule out attending any schools outside of my state if the school is recognized enough to get work back in the area.

About where on the list is a school recognizable enough to be employable after school and out of that state?

Also, are there any niche schools that my not rank high on the list but are more so employable out of state?

Anyone have any idea of when LSAC is going to announce what month they are changing to the new test format and getting rid of logic games? I've seen people predict June/July 2024, but how much of a heads up will we get?

My subscription to Lawhub Advantage was expiring, so I renewed it a few days ago. The 7sage website is showing that my new Lawhub subscription is still not synced with my 7sage account. Has anyone had a similar issue or knows how to fix this problem? Thanks!

Admin Note

If you are getting the error message "This coach is already assigned to this user" when linking your LSAC LawHub account to your 7Sage account, please know that this error is happening because the LSAC account you are trying to link has already been linked with a different 7Sage account.

Please note that your LSAC account can only be linked to one 7Sage account and we are unable to unlink it from your old account so you can link it to a new one.

Please reach out to studentservice@7sage.com if you are getting this error and provide us with the email address associated to your old 7Sage account so we can resolve this issue.

Hi all,

I need help linking my account to LSAC. I think the issue is due to a typo in my email address that I've since fixed on both platforms but now after updating my email address I get the "Coach already assigned" error that others have experienced.

I've been studying non-stop rather obsessively and I've been taking more PTs as I've wrapped up the Core Curriculum.

My scores in the past week from oldest to most recent:

PT 50 - 166, PT 36 - 170, PT 70 - 172, PT 86 - 166, PT 71 - 169, PT 87 - 163, PT 69 - 162

I know I could be burnt out but I'm also really worried that the scores have something to do with some tests being easier than others. That's the reason I took PT 70 immediately after taking PT 36, I thought maybe it was because it was older that I got a 170. But now I'm getting 10 points less on PT 69. So am I just burnt out, not scoring as well as I'd hoped, or both?

Hi, I recently paid for the live course and I found that there are many tools for studying including proctored tests and office hours. Could anyone explain how to use two of them? Proctored tests and office hours.

One more question, since this is my first time for taking live classes and I am not sure how to properly use this incredible system. Any tips? Thanks!

What does "priority"mean in the results section? For example, when you review your drill answers, there is a column that says priority. What does it refer to?

If Im' supposed to be taking preptests weekly or biweekly, but only studying LR through following the syllabus, how am I supposed to be learned LG and RC? Should I stick to the lesson plan in the syllabus or should I be focusing on improving LG and RC before the next preptest? #help !!!

So I started my studying basically within the last week. I just took my first diagnostic LSAT and I am wondering if I should blind review it now, or if I should go back and kind of just retake it after I have studied/practiced more and blind review it then? I haven't looked at any of the answers and my thought process is that I (1) was not 100% certain on a single answer so I would need to review them all, and (2) even with all the time in the world I don't think I have the skill set yet to feel anywhere near 100% comfortable with my answers.

Anytime I try to do a copy and paste function (e.g. putting particular comments into my notes) nothing comes up. I can do it with an external doc, meaning I can paste what I copy from 7sage onto a TextEdit or word processing document, but not with the online notes. Any ideas?

I'm currently in the middle of the course curriculum and have gotten a few (too many) questions wrongs on some of the drills and practice questions in the middle of the lessons. I've reattempted some LG drills consecutively because I wanted to drill in the inferences that I've failed to make before. Although I've noticed improvement in my time and accuracy with each new clean attempt, I'm worried that this is only because I have been working on the same game with only an hour break in between, and I'm getting the question right only because I've seen the question and correct answer before. In other words, I'm worried that my studying method is not the most optimal use of my time and resources because I think I've memorized the specific games and rules by rote memorization rather than learning how to make inferences faster for new games on tests.

While I mostly focused on the instance for LG, I was wondering if I should have a longer cool down period of revisiting the same drills for other practice sections and drills too. I'll try to revisit them again after a week or so, but I'm also worried that I just don't have a lot of time for the upcoming test in October ;-;

Hi, so I'm wondering whether one should practice taking the test on the LSAC's actual website and software before test day? I'm just wondering since it seems rational to think that one should at least be somewhat acclimated to the actual software that we'll be taking the test on. Obviously, this has drawbacks since I believe we get our results right away on the LSAC's testing software when taking PTs, but maybe we can take PTs in the 1-34? A response would be greatly appreciated!
