I have been using the 7Sage course since August to study for the LSAT, and I am scheduled to take the exam in April. I wanted to know what other's study plan typically looks like? Just need some inspiration on how often I should be taking PT and drilling. I am still not completely done with the curriculum, but any advice is greatly appreciated

I had been working from 62-71 for most of my prep this time and had done 29-38 previously. I meant to order 52-61 to use for some drill so I could work on my weaker sections. But I found that I accidentally ordered another volume of 62-71. Would it be better for me to actually use that and retake some sections of PTs I had done, as my original copy is heavily annotated, or to return it and get the volume I meant to have?

Hello. I just enrolled in 7Sage because I am having trouble breaking into the 170s. I usually score in the 160s-165s. I usually miss around 6 questions per LR section and 6 per RC section. I have an extremely good understanding of question types, conditional statements, common logical fallacies, etc and don't feel like I need to waste my time with understanding the basics again (I was enrolled in another prep course before this, which is where I learned all of it). However, I seem to get fairly easily tripped up over level 4-5 difficulty questions. How would one recommend studying with 7Sage for someone in my boat? Should I just do drilling exclusively with those difficult questions? Does someone have another approach that helped them break into the 170s that they wouldn't mind sharing? I take my exam for the third time in January of 2025. A recommendation of how I should approach studying for RC sections is also appreciated. Motivation is high but my confidence in breaking into the 170s is diminishing, unfortunately.

A lot of the example interview questions I've seen online seem to overlap with some of the content covered in essays (why law? why now? etc). Are there any tips to bring up new information/not sound too redundant?

Proctors:

Morning test start, so make sure you arrive at David Turpin building at the very latest 8:30am. The check-in will be right in the main floor when you enter in the building.

Facilities:

David Turpin Building - Large Class Room - Holds a couple hundred students

What kind of room:

The seating rows are like stadium seating sloping down towards the chalkboard

How many in the room:

I would approximate the attendance to be close to 150 students

Desks:

Large tables with swivel chairs that are very uncomfortable and do not allow for much adjustment because they are fastened to the tables.

Left-handed accommodation:

Yes

Noise levels:

Noise levels are very good. Very few distractions.

Parking:

Parking is also very good with a huge stadium parking lot right across the road from the test taking building. Because the tests are done on Saturday there is usually plenty of space and I only had to pay $2.50 for the whole day.

Time elapsed from arrival to test:

Arrival time 8:30 - Finish time 1:40pm October 2015 write date (it was very unorganized for this write date)

Arrival times 8:30 - Finish time 12:40pm February 2016 write date

Irregularities or mishaps:

In October 2015 there was a section that no 5 minute warning was announced which was frustrating for many test takers that day. The staff at the February write were much more organized and more pleasant to deal with.

Other comments:

Would you take the test here again?

Yes, definitely. Although it would be nice to have more comfortable chairs for the 4 hour experience.

Date[s] of Exam[s]:

Oct. 2015 and Feb. 2016

So I posted here before about the same problem, and I have basically found that in attempting to load the RC sections of a Preptest, I essentially get stuck loading it forever.

I have tried everything - trying different browsers, clearing cache, I even went so far as reinstalling my OS to see if that would fix it - and nothing worked.

A few folks from the 7Sage team have messaged me to support. I wanted to post this to get the attention of any other mods who could submit a technical ticket for me so that someone could maybe review any issues with my account.

Hi All,

Sometimes when I am working through the 'You try' sections of the lesson and I get a question correct, I don't feel the need to watch the video. I'm curious what other people do- do you tend to do the same as me or watch the video no matter what?

I have noticed that after my blind review of drilling Qs, timed sections, and full practice tests, the vast majority of questions I get wrong under timed conditions I get correct during my blind review (usually -4 or -5 to -1 during blind review). I am curious what aspects beyond time related factors are worth reviewing or examining in my wrong answer journalling of these questions, as when I do not have time constraints I confidently understand content of the questions and can determine the correct answer.

Hi,

I'm really not sure what to do about this but I had some disciplinary hearings at my university because of Palestine organizing on campus. I was let off with warnings for both hearings and both times they were really unfair hearings but I'm not sure if I should explain that it was unfair. Should I be detailed about this on my application because I feel it may show dissent against school admin? If anyone has insight or experience please let me.

Hi! I am scheduled to take the June test on Monday, though I don't think I will hit my goal score. I have been PTing 168-170 (but dipping as low as 166), and I really would like to get a 171-173. This means that I am going to give it a shot on Monday, but I am planning to take the test again in the fall or winter since I know I can still improve. I have only been studying for 3 weeks.

HOWEVER! My question is - if I purchased a course, would it be easily modified to take less time considering that I am already very familiar with the test? I lose most points in LG but can lose 2-3 in the other sections as well, but it seems like the bulk of the course is covering not-LG stuff which I don't necessarily want to spend weeks and weeks re-learning. Thanks for any advice that anyone can provide before I decide to purchase!

Is there any way we can reset the drill questions we have completed in the past but still save our completed prep tests? I want to redo questions ive done a long time ago since I dont have too many fresh prep tests left but the only way I can do this is if I reset my completed prep tests too and I dont want to do that. If this isnt possible, can an option be implemented to allow for this.

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!!

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!!

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 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?
