Hey hey, 7Sagers!
We've got another Proctored PT coming up for the month of December, which will be held Saturday Dec 2nd from 1-5 pm ET. 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. Here's how our Proctored PTs work:
You must register in advance using this link: https://7sage.zoom.us/meeting/register/tZ0vf-itpjouGt1RtQb5OFFLndPR5Ppks8_K
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 can be any PT; we recommend one that you haven't seen yet and that is at least as recent as PT 50. 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 Proctor 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 privately message your preference. If only the ProctorU 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 comment below or email bailey.luber@7sage.com. We hope to see you there!
Hello! I recently moved to Gainesville, FL, with the hopes of attending UF Law. I'm looking for fellow prospective Gators to connect with. If interested, please let me know!
Hi everyone! I am planning to take the April LSAT and will begin studying (hopefully) tomorrow. I wanted to see if anyone had any advice on how to set up my studying using 7Sage. I know that there is a curriculum but I noticed that when I put in my start date to my end date (test date) that it says I'm not studying enough hours a week.
When I took my first diagnostic (Preptest 66 on Khan Academy) I scored a a 137, with my scores as the following:
I do work full time, so if anyone has any advice on how to study while working a full time job that would also be appreciated! I am excited to get started... and I am open to any advice anyone may have. What's worked best for you, where you saw your most improvement, and how I can structure my time to maximize my return on investment.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
New subscriber here- Just took the PT 1 as a cold(ish) diagnostic after completing 7Sages Foundations section over the weekend and no prior study. I have yet to begin the core curriculum’s overview of the 3 individual sections.
Scored a 153 timed. RC-LG-LR. Completed RC but no time for a second round of review. Solved the first two LG’s, but struggled on the third. I was not able to get to the fourth LG and was pretty fatigued by the third section, wound up with quite a few answers blank in LR. Scores hovered around -10 in each section.
I decided not to blind review since I haven’t gone through the core curriculum yet and didn’t want to spend an inordinate amount of time without some foundational principles for how to tackle the games/LR, but overall feeling pretty good for a cold(ish) score!
Hello. I would like to request that you transfer your lessons about Blind Review from v1 to v2. In the v2 curriculum, it appears to be assumed that everyone knows what Blind Review is and how it is practiced. Although we can just switch to v1, other individuals who are new to the LSAT and 7Sage might not think to look back at v1 to learn about Blind Review.
Thanks
The last thing i ever expected is for a LSAT prep course to transcend the LSAT, but everything about 7sage's live classes, from curriculum to teachers, has been a testament to how freakin fulfilling high quality learning can be. While the LSAT score is the destination, I have thoroughly enjoyed the journey.
I took an older pt with two LR sections but I still want to check what the curve would be like if I calculate the results again with only a single LR taken into account. Anyone know how?
I tried buying it says page not found. Has it been discontinued.
Been studying since August, PT in low 150’s and best is a 157. Realistically, what kind of improvement can I expect for the January LSAT? Obviously no one can give an exact number, but I’d like to have an idea of what I could expect to be scoring in that timeframe. Any input is appreciated.
I renewd My yearly Lawhub subscription with the same account. However, I keep receiving the following notice:
"Sorry, your account must be linked to an active LSAC LSAT LawHub Advantage account to access licensed materials. Link your account to continue your access.
You successfully linked 7Sage to your LSAC account, however your LSAC account does not have an active LawHub Advantage subscription. Please purchase or renew LawHub Advantage on your LSAC account directly from LSAC by logging into lawhub.lsac.org, then tapping on your name in the top right corner, then “Upgrade to LawHub Advantage.”"
I'm curious if anyone has been in a similar situation and can give me some color on how they went about successfully receiving accommodations.
I was diagnosed with a learning disability in elementary school and received testing accommodations (Time and a half) until I graduated High School. I did not elect to receive accommodations on standardized tests (SAT/AP/ACT). I did not elect to receive accommodations in college either. All I have is proof of my initial diagnosis (from elementary school) and an IEP (Individual Education Program) that states I am to be given accommodations for testing. There is no proof that these accommodations were continued throughout high school because all that was necessary for me to receive the accommodations was a written letter from my parents every year requesting that I still receive said accommodations.
I'm confident that I can have my General Practitioner fill out the necessary form and even write a letter that I should receive accommodations but I am not sure that along with my documentation from elementary school will be enough. Do I need a psychologist to do so? Will my Dr be enough? Will my lack of accommodations past high school disqualify me?
I called LSAC and they were rather unhelpful. All they told me to do was submit the proper documents and when I asked if what I have will be enough they told me to reference the website.
Anyone have any recommendations/advice on how I can sure up my chances of receiving accommodations? Kinda freaking out here.
When we take a 4-part test on 7SAGE and it calculates our score, does the platform automatically take the lower of the 2 LR scores, does it flip 50/50 between them, or does it already have one already programmed as the experimental?
Finding that my score falls a lot when I do poorly on one LR section but great on the other, which makes me think its automatically taking the lesser of the two LR sections.
Would love to have this clarified. Thanks!
Feel like many people are also in the same boat- I have also heard that this cycle's admissions has been extremely slow so I am wondering if applying later would hurt my chances. I think I landed mid 160s for November LSAT but I truly think I could get a 170 if I write in Jan. Thoughts?
Hello everyone!
When I started with 7Sage I recall making a LSAC account and perhaps paying some additional money through 7Sage to LSAC get access to official test questions and such. However when I now attempt to log in to my LSAC account to link it to my 7Sage account, it tell me that there is no account associated with my email address.
Anyone have a solution or any insight?
Thanks!
OOF. I decided since I have no clue if my score is going to be worthwhile, I am fully committing myself to the January LSAT. I have been fortunate to not have a job and am starting a position (finally the degree is paying off after 5 months of searching).
Not sure if anybody else is in the same boat, but that score release date being a day before January stresses me out. Also on a totally selfish note... February is my birthday month.... so I want to be done LOL.
At least my writing is officially accepted and over with. Shout out to my professor in college for giving exams sooooooo similar to the format that I just needed a refresh & overview rather than intensive study sessions.
Guys, I am freaking out. I took the Nov. 9th LSAT at a test center, and used my military ID with no issue. It is my only photo ID that has my married name on it, since I just legally changed my name a few months ago. Since I didn't actually test virtually, I wasn't aware that I can't take a picture of my military ID that has my legal name, so I had to submit a picture of my license for writing-- which has my maiden name on it. I created the account with my maiden name (literally in my username), and since I am in another state for military for another year, it is almost impossible for me to go back to my home state just to change my dl. My passport says my maiden name too, since I got it in 2019; my passport and license don't even expire for several years. I emailed LSAC a picture of my mil. ID anyways because I am so worried and upset that my writing might be cancelled or hinder my test because of this small discrepancy. Has anyone had a similar situation? What should I do? The LSAC rep. I just spoke to was rude and unhelpful. I really hope the email with my other ID will be enough; I legit still have my old SSN too with my maiden name. Ugh!
LOL! November LSAT done. Registered already for January.... not sure if I did good or bad either lol. Anybody feeling the awkward weird feeling of being in the in between... not knowing if ur done or have to keep going lol.
Hi guys, I'm a first-generation student. I took a diagnostic the other day and scored 135 (without any prior studying). Although I've been feeling discouraged, I am giving myself 6 months before I take my first real LSAT. Is it possible to expect/score this high with this amount of time? Do you guys have any tips for self-studying?
Is there a way to make the drill timer cut you off at 35 minutes when doing a full section-length drill?
I've been putting in so many hours and the progress is slow, I'm going to say its THERE, but slow!! And that's the challenge to push through the slow progress, because it's easy to get distracted. I have multiple crying sessions throughout the week while studying for it, I'll just have mini breakdown every couple days. How is this journey affecting you? Does anyone else have crying sessions while studying for the LSAT? LMAOO. For me, time is such a killer, I feel like only adding 10 mins to the exam would make me do so much better.
Hey all,
My internet cut out the last 30 seconds of our LR section review. Apologies for the confusion it caused anyone. In any case, thanks for all in attendance and see you guys next week!
P.S. I'm still looking for cat name suggestions.

So today I took my LSAT Writing and felt so lucky with the prompt I got. However, a bit into writing, I realized my grammarly extension was on and I accidentally opened one of the suggestions.. I avoided it for the rest of the exam, but now I'm worried my sample is going to be flagged and cancelled because it'll consider it cheating. This was my first time using proctorU and unlike proctortrack, it didn't tell me which softwares to shut down before the test, so I didn't even think about it. I'm so upset because I got so lucky with my prompt and now I'm thinking I'll likely have to write it again. Does anyone else have any experience with this happening? if so, what happened?I
I plan to retake the LSAT in January and am wondering how hard it is to have accomodations approved and if law schools will see if I had them?
For those of you who've experienced this already, what materials did you need to provide to the LSAC? I had accomodations in college, would that make it more likely for me to have them approved for the LSAT?
Hi, I'm looking for some advice. My test is on Friday the 10th and I'm at the point where I think I'm experiencing burnout. I started a PT today but have no motivation to finish it. I'm PT'ing around where I want to be but the test I'm doing right now is not going well. What's the best approach before my test on Friday. Any advice would be appreciated thank you!
I’m worried about taking the LSAT on the computer when I work much better when I am able to get write notes next to the passage in the margin. How have people worked around this? P.S. I won’t be able to get a paper accommodation.
