First time using 7sage. I've already taken the LSAT twice - 147 and 150. I feel confident with LG - I don't think I need to re-learn how to LG by watching the videos. Also feel pretty confident with RC.

How should I incorporate 7sage with my prior knowledge of LG + RC?

Should I skip LG + RC lessons and continue practicing? My tutor wants me to do 1 RC section daily M/W + 1 LG section daily T/Th.

LR is my weakest section. I have been studying by doing half an LR section daily M-Th with one full section on F. Averaging around -11 to -15. Clearly I'm not understanding LR. Should I only do the LR lessons and then do half an LR section once I complete the LR lessons?

Thank you in advance.

Did anyone take the March 2018 LSAT? It was only offered in Puerto Rico, and I hadn't seen a discussion on it. LSAC is advertising a less than two week turn around time for scores.

This recently tripped me up...

But just wondering what words or phrases in an RC passage would indicate that an author is neutral towards a particular subject/theory etc.

disclaimer: this is about my personal study schedule not 7sage's.

Hi, I am retaking the exam in April after having taken it in January this year. I am not working so I can study full time, however every time i sit down to study I get extremely overwhelmed and have no idea where to start because I know the basics and can't get a solid routine down for my week. I got 153 for January and my main issues are with LR. My PTs range from 151-159.

Hey everyone,

Does anyone know if my score will post instantly after I decide to keep it via Score Preview or do they keep the window open for the full six days (like they did with the AR Field Study compensation)? I'm wondering if I can plan on submitting my applications on Wednesday or if my score will basically be pending until that score preview window closes?

Many thanks,

Brian

Hey guys, I posted this question on reddit a few days ago but received a response that wasn’t very helpful. So I decided to post the same question here to see if anyone knows something about it.

I was subscribed to “LSAT Prep Plus” in 2020, when it first came out, and in 2021. Before, depending on how you adjust the browser to suit your reading comfort, each of the RC passages could be made to fit on the screen in its entirety, provided you had a large enough monitor—I guess slightly bigger than your average laptop screen would suffice to bring this about.

However, I haven’t “logged in” to access the Prep Plus in 2022, and today I looked at the free sample PTs on their website and saw some major changes that I find discomforting. As you can see in the screenshots I provided here, the main passages are cut in the middle and you can’t see the whole of the main text for each of the passages without scrolling up and down, which I think also happened to be the case with LSATs administered on the tablets for a brief period before COVID struck.

I am registered for the January exam, and because I spent significant time preparing in previous years, I decided not to re-subscribe to the $100 per year subscription to the questions on their website.

Does anyone know anything specific about these changes, like when it first happened, and whether there’s a way to work around it?

Oh, I just realized I can’t post pictures up here. So, if you want to see the screenshots illustrating what I’m talking about, please visit

Thanks a lot.

P.S. I was a monthly subscriber long ago, and J.Y. has the best explanations!

Hello,

I am just beginning the core curriculum and I have a couple questions.

Is completing all of the questions problem sets and drills recommended? Somewhere I believe I saw someone recommend taking every other one. What is typically advised?

Also, I am struggling with the idea of confidence drills. What are these?

Thanks,

Drilling methods

I am retaking the LSAT in December and was wondering what everyone is doing for their drill work. I am basically going to drill full sections and review them and find out what my weaknesses are. Any advice?

Hello team,

is the Syllabus the 7sage curriculum and do we need to complete all of it before moving on to make a study an individual study plan with Julia?

Hi folks,

On average for a single Practice Tests, I will have a combined 5-7 questions marked for BR on Logical Reasoning. I have now reached the point where every single time I mark something for BR, I actually got it right the first time. The good news is that upon BR, I agree with my first answer so at least I am consistent.

The bad news is that every single question I get wrong I don't even mark. So the issue is I that I'm ignorant of what I'm getting wrong. I'm scoring fairly highly (high 160's - low 170s) but this pattern is starting to bother me. Does this mean I am plateau'ing or reaching my ceiling? I will say that most of the time my wrong answers are due to misreading or falling for easy traps that are pretty easily understood once I actually look at the question, granted this is with the hindsight of having seen the answer key and knowing that my answer choice is wrong.

What do you think?

I'm waiting to hear back from one law school and recently I just had the attorney general's office decided to join in on a brief that I wrote for a law firm. Is this something that I should update the schools with and let them know? It's a reach school for me. Any advice is greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone! Hope everyone is foing okay during these difficult times and have all they need (or at least teh capacity to get what they need). I also hope you are practicng social distancing and takign advantage of all the streaming services available!

I have decided to take a gap year to really work hard to get the score I need and want before I apply to law school. I am planning to, ideally, register for the September and/or October LSAT(s). I'll have at least 6 months to study for this exam if I use April-May to go through the core curriculum again while doing online remote learning (with a potential pass/fail transcipt recording) and I will ideally start focusing on timed practice (PTs and sections) starting in June until the end of the summer and/or until I take the exam. I will be able to study full-time during the summer and potentially until I take the exam. I have not done any kind of studying since October of last year and none of the studying I have done in the last 6 months was consistent so it is safe to say I am starting from square 1, with some knwoledge of the lsta and curriculum.

I would like to get some thougths on a few things:

  • Reviewing core curriculum again--how do i get the most out of it?

  • Taking a diagnostic that is not June 2007 (since I already have) but an exam that is close to the rigor of what I would expect on the more recent exams

  • I would like to allot at least 25-30 PTs to take under-timed conditions--- any ideas on the best batch?

  • Foolproofing--when and for how long (this is subjective of course but please share thoughts and experiences). Obviosuly you foolproof games that you do after PTs if you did not go - 0 but outside of that, what is the best and most efficient way to foolproof The Bundle(also subjective but see above;))?

  • how many PTs per week when I start timed practice?

  • The best time to start timed practice (regardless of my timeline)?

  • Who has done a study plan similar to the one I am doing?

  • How to avoid/deal with burnout?

  • Anything else I should keep in mind and/or incorporate?

  • I am a shooting for a 165 or better and have averaged in the high 140s and low 150s in the past (fewer than ten PTs), but that may prove to be irrelevant given my time off. Anything is possible imo so please tell me how you do this--ups and downs and all if you had a similar study plan and were in a similar scoring range.
