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?

Hi everyone,

I just upgraded to Ultimate+ from the basic package. I have 2 official scores on file, a 159 -> 162. My last few PT's have been between 164 and 168. I have worked through the core curriculum and I want to begin polishing my skills for the September exam. My BR score tends to be in the mid 170's so I am confident I can attain this come September.

I need some advice on how to utilize the Ultimate+ to efficiently practice. I have no idea how to really use it, especially when creating drill packets.

Hi All,

I am looking through my 7sage syllabus and wanted to see if anyone had advice on how they modified their course/syllabus to learn information as well as do successful drills? (Successful relating to the fact you understood the content and implementation of the coursework.)

I appreciate any potential advice, I plan to take the test August of 2022.

Thank you!

If anyone just starting the Core Curriculum and wants a study partner to go over it together, please let me know. I am only looking for serious individuals, thank you.

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.

Hi all, looking for some advice. I hit a wall with LG (Grouping) after nearly two months, I am now focusing on LR instead. Should I formulate a study plan that alternates between two sections every other day or should I solely focus on LR for right now? Any advice on how to study would be extremely helpful.

Hello everyone! I’ve been studying for about 9 months and just did my first full prep test today and scored 169. However, I let myself have a little extra time due to the fact that my ENTIRE family were in the same room as me, talking, cooking, watching stuff etc.

So my question is, other than studying in my own area which I will do starting Monday, how can I ensure to get my time down and still expect a 169?

Hi everyone,

I'll be taking the LSAT on Sunday 5th October at Macquarie University in Sydney. I've had a flick through some other forums, but thought I'd ask here: do any of you have any experience taking the LSAT abroad in general/at Macquarie Uni specifically?

I've read a couple of things about invigilators outside of the US having made mistakes because they're not so familiar with the test, so that concerns me a little.

Any insights would be GREATLY appreciated. Thanks guys :)

I was wondering if anyone had any insight on how the LSAT-flex will be scored? If it’s on the same scale as the regular LSAT does that mean we can miss about 8 questions and still get a 170? Thank you!

So I am stuck between what to choose on the various LSAT sections on the questions I don't get to. For example, Dave Killoran from PowerScore says to choose "D" 1-20 on LR when in doubt, and "E" on the last 5. JY says to choose "B" when in doubt on 1-20 and "E" on the last 5 for LR.

Note, JY uses data from PREPTEST 58 (Sept 2009 ) onwards, while Dave uses data from Nov 1991. Which one is more reliable?

Here are the sources for both opinions:

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 never self-studied before, and I'm struggling with pacing myself. Please let me know if you have any thoughts on:

  • How many 7sage core lessons / problem sets to get through per day

  • When to know that you're ready to move on to the next lesson

  • When you started taking full-length PT's

    • I realize that everyone learns differently, but any tips or ideas on pacing would be deeply appreciated!

    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

    Can somebody, who has taken the LSAT flex, comment on the differences between the LSAT flex and the normal full length LSAT. Is the experience better with the flex? And is your score considered just as credible by colleges as the traditional LSAT?

    A question about early decision - if I apply early decision to a law school and then for various factors I decide I am not going to go to law school at all (very complicated explanation for this but I may end up getting a very lucrative job and not go). What would this mean for me? It cant force me to go to the law school I am assuming.

    I am seeing online "that your required to attend that particular school or not go to law school at all that year" from a blog on power score. But just curious if anyone has more insight

    Hi all,

    Similar to most of you, I am a bit bummed about Saturday's test. I have been studying for about a year now, and felt really prepared. I took the July test, and canceled because it was not where I want to be (164+). Before Saturday, my practice tests were falling between 164-169. I believe I did really well on LR, ok on RC, but I know that I bombed LG horribly. The chances are pretty slim that I score 164 even if I did well on those LR sections. I was already signed up for October, but I'm feeling a bit discouraged and stressed on how to study at this point. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations on how to study for someone who has already gone through all practice tests from 30-87. Should I retake tests I've already taken? Should I use early tests for practice? I was also wondering if anyone has any recommendations for the amount of studying from now until October. Any help is really appreciated!

    Thanks!

    Lauren
