Hello 7Sage Community,

I just wanted some feedback doing problem sets. I have the Ultimate+ package and so I have all of the problem sets but would you recommend doing all of the problem sets or save some so that you may come back to certain question types you are struggling with so you can drill them?

Hello!

Can anyone help explain this question from the grammar section on comparatives?

"At least 59 percent of households maintained a lower indoor temperature than they had been accustomed to maintain on very cold days"

I started studying hard after I bombed the June test. I feel really good about testing next week. Since I started 7sage, my scores are all increasing. Today, I did the actual test from June and scored 13 points higher. Has anyone had patterns of success here but after completing the real test, failed to show growth? I feel confident that I have improved but afraid that I might mess it up. Test Anxiety is real.

Hoping Perception is reality.

My BR score has remained in the mid 160s with 166 being the highest, 164 being the lowest over the past 4 PTs. There is no question type that I am particularly struggling with, most of my wrong answers I just did not fully understand what I was reading. As for my timed scores my first PT was a 148 and it gradually has gone up each test with the highest and most recent one a 160. What do other people recommend I do? My goal for BR is to get it around 172-175 and my timed to be high 160s latest by January, hopefully by November or October. Should I just take practice tests over and over until it goes up? Is there any specific strategy I am missing? Side note: If anyone is in my same position and has the same goals would you like to get in touch and chat / study occasionally in discord? I am enrolled in school so I am taking 1 PT a week atm and drilling other days.

Would love to hear feedback from folks who have been here before...I am applying this cycle for Fall 2020 start. I’ll be 30 when I do start and prefer not to delay applying any longer (military background) and really want to start on this next phase of my life becoming a lawyer.

I took in 2016 and scored a 161. I took the July and canceled after I scored a 157. After a lot of time and studying I was PTing 164-168 fairly consistently. Yesterday’s test felt more difficult for me but not enough to cancel. I honestly don’t know where it will fall though; gut feel is on the lower end but fingers crossed.

Because I have the July cancel, I have a voucher for a free retake. Should I sign up for January and if November comes back with a score I can be ok with, I could just not take January? I have almost all of my application materials complete besides a couple LORs and school specific essays. I am likely going to apply to GULC early decision. My plan was to hit send on apps before the new year. If I wait till January then I’m delaying that by at least 6 weeks and applying late in the game. Scholarships are not really a priority, just desire getting into the best school I can to go into BigLaw.

Also, last but not least...I really don’t have the willpower or desire to push myself like I did from July to November. I had mixed emotions leaving the test, but the good was all to do with being done and moving on. However I also recognize I let the pressure get to me more than it should have on this test and I could do better. Any thoughts or stories for perspective would be helpful!

For context, I have not had testing accommodations in the past, but I have had an anxiety diagnosis for about 9 years now and am requesting 50% more time, however, I do have Kaiser Permanente, and it seems like due to their policy they aren't allowed to fill out outside/custom forms that aren't theirs. When I sent the request for my psychiatrist to fill out the qualified professional form, they instead sent me a "psychological disability form", which just shows the diagnosis + date, limitations on life activities (concentration/test stress management), as well as the current medications I'm taking for this. Would it be enough to just submit this document + explaining that it is out of my control that my healthcare provider is unable to fill out the qualified professional form. Anyone has a similar experience with Kaiser, what did you do? any advice?

Disclaimer - I have not taken the LSAT yet so please correct me if I’m mistaken in believing it is only offered in a digital format barring some accommodation.

How are we supposed to parse out grammar when the exams are on a screen? I’ve read only text size and line spacing can be adjusted. Are we expected to mentally draw and remember 7 sets of parenthesis and arrows? Drawing on top of the questions and answer choices is extremely helpful for me.

Please let me know about your experiences and if we are able to draw and mark up questions like in the lesson videos. Thanks!

Hi guys! I am signed up for the August exam. I remember when friends took it this time around last year there were a lot of issues with Proctor U for online administrations. I haven't heard much recently about any issues.

Would love to hear people's more recent experiences from the June exam. :)

I’d like to print out all the modules to organize them into a binder for easier access and review. However, I’m having difficulty finding an efficient way to do this. Printing each page individually seems like it would take an extraordinary amount of time.

What’s most important to me is being able to print out the diagrams, as there doesn’t seem to be any way to do so currently. Is there a solution that would allow me to print or at least convert the diagrams (and ideally the modules) into a PDF?

With the new LSAT changes, which PTs are being used for question drills, and which ones are completely clean for full PTs?

I've seen that 7sage recommends taking old PTs first, but I've already done a lot of drills that uses questions from all the old PTs. Should I still do a full PT for tests I know a few answers to?

I feel like there's something wrong. I finished 7sage's LR curriculum, drilled, took practice tests, and I never scored higher than my diagnostic. In fact, I only scored between 157 and 162 on my practice tests preceding the official test. To be fair, I introduced BR very late to my study process. But I feel like it's odd that I didn't at least stumble into a higher score based on rote practice and familiarity.

Does anyone have thoughts about how to proceed for the October exam? Should I hunker down, focusing on PTs and blind review? Should I consider a different program? A private tutor? Stop studying and hope my intuition marinates over that time (JK)?

UNC is my dream! though, my GPA is somewhat mid i think, sittin pretty at 3.64 and i take the LSAT next weekend. i've been scoring in the low 160s, so i'm anticipating somewhere around there (if i end up with below a 160, i'm retaking- also yes i know i'm likely to do worse on the real deal but i'm being optimistic hehe). if anyone is super familiar with UNC or their admissions office, is it possible for me to get accepted? rather, is it likely? also important to note that i believe my personal statement will be quite strong, as i have quite a bit of writing experience (if that would make much of a difference). thanks!

Hi all,

Is anyone else having issues with getting kicked out of PrepTests with plenty of time remaining? I've now been kicked out of three PrepTests all with at least 15 minutes remaining in a given section. This has become increasingly frustrating as it's not allowing me to get a valid score or accurately track my progress. If anyone has experienced this, please let me know if you found a solution.

Thank you!
