I've been reading some suggestions to simulate a modern test for the practice tests, and then "take an extra section" from an older test to simulate how the testing would feel day of. But how do you do this?

Do you make a drill with it limited to "Tags and Preptests" then only check off 1 prep test and then check off all the item tags? What do you do then with the drill difficulty slider? Wouldn't the drill difficulty slider not be in effect if you do this because you're just taking all the questions from a section so you can't control the difficulty?

Hi,

I'm feeling really discouraged right now, so I'd appreciate some encouragement. Last year I studied for the LSAT on and off during undergrad and got 2 poor scores 148 and 149. I took the tests out of desperation not to fall behind. (I know, not wise.) I decided to wait a cycle, and I have been studying full time for the last several months. I have made my way through all of the Powerscore books, and I've been drilling to an obsessive level. I got my PTs to the 152-158 range, and decided to shoot for the moon. I took the LSAT today, and I ran into a game with wording that I hadn't seen before. I completely shut down. Tilted my way through the entire test. My mind went blank. I wouldn't be surprised if I got between a 150-152. I've now taken the test 3 times, and I've been studying full time. My partner has left me recently, and I feel like I'm at a really low point.

My averages are

RC:-11

LR: -10

LG: -5

I'm pretty bummed.

After a disappointing 2022-23 cycle, I decided to retake the LSAT one more time. I scored a 172 in June 22. Although it's only a 2 point increase, I'm really happy and looking forward to applying.

Gotta thank @Mike_Ross for not only his tutoring help but his words of encouragement when I was so down. To anyone thinking of retaking, I know it's hell but it's worth it!

I got 155 on my cold PT and scored 173 on the August 2023 LSAT. My goal was to score anywhere above 170 so I am very satisfied. I'm glad I went through my entire LSAT journey with 7Sage. The core curriculum, blind review, PT analytics, and tutoring all worked out for me.

I especially want to thank and recommend my tutor @"bailey.luber". I was stuck in the mid-160s for quite a while and her advice for drilling and mindset really helped me have breakthroughs. I only had 5 hours of tutoring but she was very approachable, always there to check in on me, and always gave me detailed, thoughtful, and effective advice that applied perfectly to my situation. There were times when I wanted to quit due to score plateau and studying alone as an international student, but my tutor has been a huge source of support and encouragement.

Thank you 7Sage!

I'd love your input on a new design for 7Sage Analytics!

Pretend you just finished a PrepTest. Which screen do you want to see?

Note that the graphs showing section scores and the question tables are the same in the first three options. Only the visualization in the upper left is different.

Option A: Donut

Picture showing mouse hovering over the yellow arc

Option B: Bar

Option C: Double Dial

Option D: Two Dials (as on current site)

Taking the LSAT for the first time this coming Friday. Started my journey with 7sage around mid-May with a 141 diagnostic score on the June 2007 PT. Today I took PT93 on LawHub and got a 171, my highest score yet. Regardless of how Friday goes, just wanted to give a big thank you to the whole 7sage team for helping me with this 30-point increase!

Just some motivation for those who are starting out - my initial diagnostic was 158, and I just scored 172 in my most recent PT. Here are my scores and dates:

24 Jul 158

26 Jul 161

01 Aug 166

03 Aug 168

08 Aug 169

09 Aug 170

28 Aug 173

05 Sep 169

06 Sep 172

I used

Khan Academy (in July at first)

PowerScore (August)

7Sage (September)

I switched to 7Sage from PowerScore because I found the explanations for the questions I got wrong either missing or incomplete, so I kind of had to just figure it out myself which I think has hindered my progress. Here's proof that you can do it!!!!!

Hi. I'm having trouble finding the actual test questions. Every time I go to the preptest section all that comes up is a list of the tests, and when I click on one it only shows me the answer/bubble document but not the actual questions. Has anyone had a similar problem/know how to fix this?

Hello out there!

I just started working through the program and have a question on taking practice tests.

It seems the prevailing wisdom is to go through a majority of the 7Sage training before taking any practice tests.

Is there any value in taking one at the beginning of training to establish a baseline?

Thanks in advance!!

Hey guys I’m sorta new to 7Sage and I’m working through the Foundations lessons right now. I wanna make the most of my study time and Live Classes package, but there are so many classes available (and even more in the live classes library) I don’t even know how to chose or what to start with? It seems like my personalized study schedule, so far, doesn’t interact with the live classes and that you have to take it upon yourself to work them into your studying. What classes or series of classes or teachers would you recommend starting with, and how did you work them into your syllabus?

This LSAT stuff just got super real for me, thinking about Sunday is giving me nothing but mental paralysis and heart palpitations, suddenly feeling like I've been kidding myself thinking I can do this. Any bravery/tips would be most appreciated.

Whenever I click alternate explanation, or I try to play a video explanation from the drill set interface, the video doesn't have any images. I can hear JY's voice, and I see a blue cursor moving around, but no text or diagramming or anything. Is this a browser issue? It doesn't work on either computers I've tried, nor my phone's browser.

What happened to 7Sage Bar? I’ve heard excellent reviews from the course and was planning on enrolling. However, I see that it was cancelled, why is that? Which other prep course would anyone recommend?

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to let you know about the updates LSAC has made to the LSAT test dates for October and November.

Along with the already announced test dates for October (October 13 and 14), LSAC has now added test sessions on October 15 and 16. LSAC also added more test dates to the November schedule. In addition to the previously set dates (November 10 and 11), there will now be test sessions on November 8 and 9.

The new test dates include both remote and in-person sessions, and this won't affect the score release date!

After using 7Sage for the past couple months, I was able to dramatically increase my official score (18 points!) to a 179 on the August test. I'm really appreciative of all the great resources provided (including the amazing podcast from Henry and Aastha). Now all that's left to do is apply!

PT 88

Which Lr on pt 88 is the experimental section? Also I average between a -3 and -6 in LG and just got -10 on this pt. I am planning for the sept test and can't really pull out of it. Should this be of concern or are the last 2 games pretty rare?
