This is random but I want to do a summer 2025 law internship in Australia but I don't even know how to begin this process. Most programs that I have looked at only offer unpaid experiences, but I would highly prefer to find a paid internship. Does anyone have any insight on this?
I'm wondering if I should upgrade to Ultimate+. Here's my dilemma:
I have PDF's of each question type (with questions from PT 1-35) and they're arranged by difficulty from a previous tutor which is super convenient. The only thing is that I find it extremely helpful to be able to go back and watch J.Y's videos after BR or if I'm having difficulty with a question. Also, I find it hard to organize/make my own 'problem sets'. I feel like I just have multiple running lists of problem types I should be doing with different difficulties but have trouble keeping track of them. I should also mention that I have every PT from 39+ available as well for when I start PTing.
Is it worth it to spend the extra money to upgrade to Ultimate+ given my circumstances?
If I were to upgrade to Ultimate+, how should I go about doing the problem sets? Do you do all of them after each lesson or save the harder ones for later/review?
Especially regarding RC, but in general as well! Please post a link if possible!
Thanks.
so i'm aware there are a few older posts on here about this topic, but was hoping that someone could chime in with new advice...
i'm averaging around 170-173 on blind review pts, and about 92-100% on RC and LR drills with 25 questions/4 passages (sometimes ~88% for the harder ones). however, my scores before blind review tend to hover around 165-67. i know that these are, by no means, bad scores, but i do want a higher score on the actual lsat (sept 2024).
my biggest problem for rc is that i tend to miss essential parts of the passage (that i do not realize are essential until i get to the questions), and end up having to a) go way over time or b) only get to thoroughly read the passage during blind review.
for lr, i panic about the time and end up not selecting an answer i'm confident with until blind review.
i know that comparing timed/untimed scores is one of the main goals of blind review, so i guess i'm also just asking about how to balance time and thoroughness.
i don't know if i need to just keep drilling (though i feel like i'm burning through questions and pts) or if there's some other trick!!
any tips would be appreciated :)
Heyyy,
I am planning on taking the October LSAT in the Middle East. Thing is, I have heard that the only available time slots are usually between 2 am and 5.30 am which is a major disadvantage. I can't imagine taking the LSAT during those times and doing well.
Any one have any experience with this? Also, how early will the time slots open up for booking...
I haven't paid for my test yet and wasn't sure if this will cause me to be late on choosing a time slot.
Thanks :)
I know from friends that there is strategy to approaching each section- whether thats numbering logic games on difficulty and taking them in that order or approaching LR questions to save time. Does anyone know if 7sage has guidance on this?
Im still a freshman in college but does anybody know of any good scholarships. I have to go out of state for my school and need to prepare already.
Hi all! Looking to see if anyone has any recomendations for how to build a study schedule after taking a PT. My current plan is to take a PT bi-weekly Fridays and spend my days going over specific question types I've missed. Should I also consider doing full length sections a day during my week? Throw your study schedule/suggestions in the comments - Thanks all!
Good evening all,
I'm primarily posting to find advice to reach my score goal (likely just like everyone else). I started prep one month ago, first score 144 with equally bad scores on each section. My preperation thus far has included taking 1-2 timed 4 section LSAT's each week with at least one section a day, working through a portion of a kaplan book (dropped because i didn't love their LG method; brother took the course and i got the book for free), a couple insight lsat videos on youtube and 7sage LG explanations. I've taken 8(?) timed lsats and have gotten my score up to a consistent 157. My scores on each section are pretty consistent, 17 to 18 right on each section. I'm fairly confident I'll be able to get my LG score up to around 20 right each time, but I'm looking for advice on what section to focus on i guess. I haven't really done Blind Review at all, is it that helpful? The score I need is a 164. I'm looking to get into U Denver law (Sturm) with a 2.77 ugpa. I'm halfway through my MBA program at a low ranked school with a 4.0 GPA. I like the school because I'd like to live in denver and work in the private sector there or somewhere in that region. Any thoughts on methods or important sections to focus on? Or general thoughts at all? Taking the july lsat and working fulltime/ going to school. Still i reasonably have 1-2 hours a day i can focus on it and 4-5 on saturday/sunday. Thanks in advance.

just wondering if I'm missing it or its just not there
If I cancel my 7sage subscription, will I still be able to see the PTs I have already taken? I just want to see which questions I got wrong/right.
Hi Guys,
Do you know if the LSAT is compatible with the macOS Sonoma update? I have been holding off on updating my laptop for a while now and just wanted to see before I do so.
Thanks in advance!
Hi 7Sage Community,
I would love to get some advice on how to study once you have run out of practice tests. I have been studying for about a year and have 3 clean PTs left. I am taking the June exam, but also am planning to take the August exam (just to be safe). Does anyone have advice on when to use those clean PTs and how to utilize old PTs effectively? Thank you!
So when did you all start taking the practice tests? Did you first finish the lessons then proceed onto the practice tests?
Is anyone currently using Powerscore? I need access to the recording for the Revisited Crystal Mini Ball for June 2023 and was wondering if someone could please share that. Thank you.
I'm looking for a study buddy in Chicago who would be willing to meet in person maybe 1-2 evenings a week. I'm prepping for the September LSAT and would prefer to work with someone already scoring at least in the 160s but I'm pretty flexible. Send me a message if interested!
From PT24.2.21
a) No effective law is unenforceable
If a) is true can we rephrase .... If not effective then not enforceable?
I know the correct understanding is ... If effective -> then enforceable.

Hi everyone!
Was curious to know if anyone has tried the fool proofing method for LR/RC and their results. If people have tried it, have you see a significant improvement in your LR/RC score?
If drilling takes over the problem sets, (aside from few of the most recent PTs) I will not be able to take all 4 sections of any PT without some questions being spoiled, assuming I've done all drills. Therefore, if I took all 4 sections of PTs, my score would be inflated. On the other hand, if I took the 'simulated modern' version, PT 45 and onward would not be spoiled and my score would not be boosted, giving me a more realistic score. But I have heard it is good practice to take all 4 sections. So what should I do then?
I know LSAC has been changing it up lately. When was the last time they pulled this baby out? Do we see this happening soon ? I enjoy them more than a lot of other games but I am just curious as to when this rarely used game may be making a comeback
Hi Everyone!
Head’s up: later this month, LSAC is doing a system-wide upgrade that will affect some of their online services. It will begin at 5 p.m. ET on Friday, December 22, and is expected to end at around 5 p.m. ET on Saturday, December 23. During these 24 hours, certain LSAC services, including candidates’ online accounts on LSAC.org and LawReady, will be offline.
During this time, people will be unable to complete transactions such as registering for a future LSAT, submitting fee waivers or accommodation requests, accessing their accounts, or submitting applications.
Services on LawHub.org will remain available during the upgrade window. Scheduling for the January 2024 LSAT will continue through Prometric. However, information on candidate accounts will not be updated until the upgrade is completed.
If you have any further questions, you can contact LSAC via https://lsac.zendesk.com/, email them at lsacinfo@lsac.org, or call them at 215.968.1001.
How come when looking online at certain LSAT prep websites, some sites appear to incorrectly state that there are 5 sections on the LSAT including 2 logical reasoning sections and 1 unscored section? I thought that even the old version of the LSAT only had 4 sections as well, but the difference was that the double section was predetermined to be logical reasoning and now the double section differs depending on the test you take. I’ve never heard of there being an LSAT with 4 scored sections and 1 unscored… This fifth section is also not listed as the writing prompt as that is listed separately from the unscored section on these sites.
I am performing pretty well when I take the sections individually, but I am not doing so great when I take the entire PTs. I find it that I get 2-3 (sometimes even 5) more wrong per section when I take the entire PTs. If anyone had similar experience, how did you overcome this? What helped you the most?
In case it helps, for the past month or so, I have been doing and reviewing at least 3 sections everyday (not necessarily from same PTs though). If I don't have time to do a full section, I would do at least 1 full LR and 2 games and 2 passages. This approach has been helpful, so I get used to "switching" modes.
Has anyone taken the LSAT in Rome at this testing center? Looking for feedback.
