Can we lay the tablet flat on the desk/table? It makes a big difference for me in reading comprehension.

Should I be starting with V1 do the whole course than switch to V2? Or should I be doing V1 and V2 simultaneously? What has worked best and made easiest to understand?
Hi all,
I've been studying for the LSAT for ~3 months now in preparation for the April LSAT, and I was consistently in the 166-170 range before finally hitting my target of 172+ (173) recently. What steps should I be taking to maintain this score in the month remaining before my test?
I take plenty of PrepTests and do lots of drills, but sometimes I feel like doing these drills isn't helping me learn -- like JY said in a video, it's almost like I'm doing them just for the bet of hoping I score well once I see my results. I also don't have one particular 'weakness', so I feel like going back in the curriculum isn't too useful.
Would really love any advice!
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!
Hey everyone,
I just wanted to share that I got my first 180 on a PT! It wasn't a fresh PT, it was the same one I used for my diagnostic many months back, and even though I remembered very few of the questions I'm sure that inflated my score to some extent. I was given the advice to retake old PTs during my last week before my test and I'm mainly sharing this to let you all know that it's good advice I'd recommend. It helps boost confidence which is essential going into game day and still lets you practice pacing and the like without burning yourself out in the last week. Definitely found it worthwhile for myself and would encourage others to try as well. It's particularly fun retaking your diagnostic to remind yourself how much you've grown over the course of your studies.
Good luck to all my October brethren. Rooting for y'all!
Hi guys,
I am taking April LSAT and I just took PT88 and got score with -6 drop from my usual. I am not too worried about LG -2/-3 is ok for me but I just got like -12 in LR and -15 in RC. I usually get between -6/-9 for LR so I guess 3 more questions I can pass but I usually get -6 on RC with max -9 but with -15 in this RC I don't know what to do anymore.
Has anyone seen this major drop with scores with this PT particularly or maybe few weeks before the actual exam? I took one from the 90s and I didn't even do that bad on it so now I am confused where I lie. My scores have not dropped nor increased (LOL) for like the past few months and I was pretty happy with my score of 159~ 162. I got 153 on this PT so what will be the actual score on the real one? OR is this PT just from hell and I should just burn it and act like it never existed LOLOL
I was wondering when implementing drills into your studying how you guys do it? Should I be trying to drill a specific type of question (i.e like MSS in LR, SA in LR, or Grouping in LG, etc) and don't move on to another question type until you get 100% timed? Or do you move on once you get 100% BR?
Or are there any other strategies that help you guys more?
Ok, I did a practice session on the LSAT practice on LSAC. I bombed it spectacularly with 5/23. I have autism and sometimes have problems with testing. Is there any LSAT prep programs that are in person? Thank you
I had originally been scheduled to take the LSAT in June, deferred it until August due to my strengths being in LR and RC, and now am unsure of how to proceed.
I have an extremely firm grasp on the LR and RC and do not wish to study the small, pedantic details for a 2nd and 3rd time because I do not want to get into my head and overthink.
But also I am worried that if I strictly take practice tests for 2 months straight, I will be burned out for when I take the test in August.
Has anyone else experienced this and how did you proceed?
-Thank You
I just received this email from LSAC: "We are writing to let you know that your recent LSAT session is currently being reviewed, along with others, for an incident that was recorded during the administration of the test. Please be assured that your session is intact and your test answers have been recorded properly."
Has anyone else gotten this? Are they just telling me because my score will come out late or are they trying to set the stage to tell me they have invalidated my test for some reason?
I have taken the LSAT before in a testing center (when they first became available again after COVID). I plan to take the June 2024 LSAT and am thinking of taking it remotely because I feel like in the testing center, I was distracted and it caused me even more stress, especially since it was not the same as my study area. So, for those who have taken the remote LSAT, what was that like? I know I have heard some horror stories but I do not know if that was the testing experience for the majority of test takers.
I'm registered for the April 2024 international LSAT but see that scheduling is still "TBD." Does anyone know approximately when LSAC will open scheduling?
For those who had their November score on hold, have you gotten it? Any updates?
I just took the Feb 1997 PT (my second one ever), and got what I feel is a very unusually high score. I noticed this test is not numbered consistently with the others and that 7sage placed it right after the end of the CC. Is this test just unusually easy or not representative of other PTs? I'm just curious as to why it is set apart/not used in the CC given how old it is.
Hi all,
I haven’t received a response from 7Sage about my switch to the V2 version of the core curriculum, so I’ll share my thoughts here. I am a little over 64% done with the LR section in the V1 version. I wrote down a list of the question types I did on V1 and what I have left. So I clicked the “complete” option on the ones I did for V1 on V2, and that left me with 6 question types compared to 9. Do you think I went about that correctly?
Also, the foundations section for V2 has a lot more lessons than V1, but I was thinking of clicking the “complete” option for the foundations section and just come back to specific lessons for questions I get wrong. Is that a valid approach?
Also, does V2 use more recent questions? What happened to the problem sets and using problems from tests 1-35?
I would appreciate any help!
How do you do fellow 0Ls?! 🍦

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?
Why is there no such thing on YouTube? Generations of future lawyers will thank whoever comes up with one of these...
If so, join our 140s study group where we go over hard questions in the core curriculum together 🥐
You're invited to my new group '140 —> 180’ on GroupMe.
So I just registered for the September 2019 LSAT on BYU's campus. I'm trying to find out where on campus the test is actually administered, but I can't find anything. Is that something that I won't be able to find out until I can print my admission ticket? Any information is appreciated! Thanks!
Hey everyone, I am new to 7sage and I am just wondering if the problem sets in the core curriculum should be done all at once. I have been trying to find out if I should save them or knock them all off at once. I am only two weeks into my study but I am getting a little bored with the problem sets. I think it is because I did study for a few months a few years ago so I think maybe I know the fundamentals and should keep the problem sets for when I am confused. Or if I find out I have a problem with a question type later on. I was hoping someone could tell me what they do.
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.

Wondering if it’s still worth recording my PTs now that we have access to how much time was spent on each question via the digital tester. Is there any other data worth collecting from filming?
Anyone find much success limiting (at least at the outset) what you write down during a Logic Game to the second page? My last few games have really improved in time since employing this strategy. I find i write smaller and I refer back to the rules more because they are within my line of sight for almost all of the logic game. It turns out, at least for me, that the LSAC wasn't doing us a favor by changing from one page to 2 pages.
