Hi there! I apologize if this question is asked often or will be answered for me in the course, but at what point should I start supplementing with practice tests and drilling? I've heard about starting once you've finished the grammar section, Foundations, or the entire course. Any tips/suggestions? Thank you!

Proctors: There were 2, and they were very fast and quiet throughout testing.

Facilities: Very nice and clean

What kind of room: Small classroom, not a lecture room

How many in the room: About 20

Desks: Very nice, all separate desks with a push in chair

Left-handed accommodation: yes, but it wasn't needed, all desks were separate

Noise levels: Quiet other than many people got up for a bathroom break and came back just in the first 3 sections, and you could hear the other classrooms reading their instructions

Parking: Very good, no real trouble finding a spot

Time elapsed from arrival to test: Test did not start until about 10, a lot of people to assign to classrooms

Irregularities or mishaps: None

Other comments: Pretty good testing experience, proctors were quiet, nice, professional, and considerate

Would you take the test here again? Absolutely

Date[s] of Exam[s]: October 2011

Hi all,

I am strongly considering canceling my Oct LSAT. I feel that I performed no where near my full potential and only took the studying seriously during the last month and a half leading up to the test. I took 18 full PTs and came across this site 2 weeks before the test.

Would you recommend enrolling in one of these courses to prep? Do I have enough time?

Anyone willing to share their experiences/success stories or otherwise, as a December retaker?

Thanks!

I just want to give a world wide shout out to Nicole Agrononik the 7 Sage tutor. Her teaching style of covering theory before practice has been a god sent to me and Im sure for everyone else. I am at a 92% for PSAr questions and I give the credit where its due. She explains things in a way that's easily understood. IDK who taught Nicole but I'm thankful for them too. I want to thank her mama for having her. I just watched her flaw factory class and I am telling you I thought I knew what I false dichotomy was and Hello. I didn't. So, I just want to give Nicole a hellafied praise for STL.

Hi guys, September test date approaching and getting extremely anxious. This is first time I'm taking LSAT, I need a 160. I've been PTing and my lowest 2 were 157 & 159, then mostly 160-161. For those that have taken it, have you found that PT genuinely reflect the real score? Or does your real score turn out higher or lower than what you were normally expecting?

Are there any major differences between the format of the exam we will take on test day versus the Prep Tests done on the 7sage website? For example, will test takers be able to grey out answer choices the same way we can on the 7sage PTs? Also, will test takers be able to view question numbers at the bottom of the screen, seeing which ones are unanswered or starred?

Hey guys, I've just about finished going through the LSAT Trainer (2024 edition), and I was wondering what everyone's thoughts here have been regarding supplementary resources for 7sage in general. When I initially began my LSAT prep, I tried proceeding strictly with 7sage but I found myself getting a little all over the place. I think the LSAT Trainer was a decent starting point for structuring my LSAT self-study and prep; I think I'm going to be able to utilize 7sage a lot more efficiently moving forward. That said, I still wouldn't be surprised if anyone thinks there are better supplementary resources out there. What do you guys think?

I’ve been stuck studying the LSAT for about 9 months now. I wasn’t preforming well the first 6 with the programs had so I switched to 7sage I’ve been PT’ing in the mid- high 140’s and definitely seen some improvement. However my goal is to break 150’s and apply in the fall. What are some tips/tricks yall have used to get you over that time edge? I have already registered for October and I plan on having that be my last exam since I’ll be working/studying for other exams.

Another concern of mine is this exam and being admitted. I’m not shooting for the stars and the schools I have are in the T100 region. I have all my other credentials in line such as a high gpa (Accounting 3.9), great LOR, and a lot of internship experience. The calculator seems to think I have a decent chance lol but was wondering if anyone has insight? Thanks.

Hey all,

I've been consistently scoring in the low 170s for the past several months, but can't break the mid-high 170s barrier. I signed up for the August and September test but am hesitant to go through with August.

For those who have reached the high 170s, what what your experience with breaking past the low17s? Is one more month enough time to break that plateau, or should I anticipate taking the test in October? I really don't want to take the official test again without consistently scoring in my goal range.

Thanks!

I'm familiar with the format and question types on the test, but I'm basically new. I studied for a bit last summer on the LSAT trainer but that didn't go well. Anyways, I have the summer to prepare for it this time and am planning to write the Sept test. How do I start? I'm not sure which plan to purchase on 7Sage, and considering how new I am I'm also thinking of getting the PS Bibles. Also getting the practice test books. Any advice helps!

Hi!!

I feel like I am not understanding fully how to properly utilize the wrong answer journal. I dont know if this makes sense but I do not see how I will improve with it nor do I feel I know what to put on the "How can I change my process to do better on these in the future?" portion. I was hoping someone could explain to me and possible give me an example of how it has worked for them? Thank you so much!!

A while ago, I got my lowest LR section score. I was initially devastated, but I tried taking each question as a learning moment. I did this by exhausting each question I struggled with to its fullest capacity, keeping track of my incorrect questions, and reviewing them once in a while. I also wrote down a list of traps I commonly fall into and add tally marks when I repeated a mistake.

Today, I got past three questions that I otherwise would have gotten wrong by being aware of the fact that a) 'assumptions' are not explicit b) words are close, but not equal in meaning (for example, a drought is not the same as below average rain) and c) when the stimulus/choice only says X is more or less than Y, you never know by how much.

We review mistakes to not make them again, and that score was totally worth it now. Don't feel discouraged if your scores drop headed into the test, you'll probably do better because of it.

See you then!

Is there any way to look at analytics of both obsolete tests and the new format on one graph? I just took my first Preptest under the new format and now I only see the modern preptest version, whereas I've taken like 12 preptests in the obsolete version #help

Hi everyone, I am wondering if someone has taken the LSAT at the in-person test center in Ottawa. I'd like to do that to avoid potential difficulties with WiFi/proctor because I just get so paranoid thinking about those. But I want to know how that experience has been for those who's done it there? Thank you!
