This is a bit of a picky random question, but I was wondering if the online version of the official LSAT has the X's to cross out answers that you believe are wrong. I don't want to get used to this feature then feel naked if it doesn't exist on the actual LSAT. For those who have taken the test, please let me know. Thanks!!

I am scheduled to take the November and January LSAT. I received time accommodations for January only. I been thinking about canceling the November exam to put all my focus on January since I would have to adjust my PT exams to match my accommodations. Should I take the November test to see how proctoring goes so I know what to expect in January or is it not worth it?

Hello, is there a way to remove the option of closed captioning automatically appearing when you start a video? I know you can downgrade the video player's functionality, but I like to use most of the functions its just that the closed captioning feature always needs to be manually turned off for every video explanation. IS there anyway to remove this "auto-on" feature for CC. #help

Hey guys!

I'm sure this question has been posted before, but I wanted to get some input on what others think of this. Since there are only a couple weeks left until the November LSAT, I wanted to change up the way I take my last prep tests.

I'm thinking of simulating a "modern" LSAT and afterwards grabbing a LR, RC, or LG section and taking that as my experimental section. That way, I get a better idea of what my score will actually be since not simulating the modern test counts all 4 sections. Not simulating the modern test and taking all my prep tests with 2 LR sections makes me nervous that a second LG or RC section would throw me off on test day.

Thanks in advance!

Hi 7Sage,

I'd like to ask a question about changing my subscription, and when I try to navigate to "Contact Us," it's not clickable as a link. Due to that, I can't seem to find an email address, phone number, or form fill to ask my question. What is the best way to get in touch with 7Sage to ask questions related to my account?

Thank you!

I've been experimenting with reading the answers in reverse order ie e) first and then a) last.

One trap that I feel like they use is sometimes some really juicy looking trap answers are in the earlier choices, and they are just looking for you to get emotionally tied to that answer and just skim read the answer choices.

If the ordering of answers plays into their strategies for trapping test takers, then starting in reverse order neutralizes their trap.

The most common correct answer is D, so starting in reverse order means you see D sooner.

Even if I'm wrong there's no real downside to going in reverse.

Thoughts?

is the Current LSAT as of late 2022-2023 online or inperson. I want to do the drills on paper if the actual LSAT test is on paper.

This keeps happening to me. My blind review is 14 points higher than my timed score.

I have received 50% extra time on the exam and would like to practice under these conditions. Is there anything I can do in "settings" option of 7Sage to edit the time allotted per section?

I just wanted to come on here and thank J.Y and the entire 7sage team for helping me achieve a goal that I never thought would be possible! I started studying seriously in July 2020 and proceeded to take the LSAT in June 2021. I thought it would be impossible to overcome the daunting 170 hump while also working full-time at a law firm, but with the tips and lessons uploaded on 7sage, I was able to achieve just that. I want to say, these videos and resources really really do work and is worth every penny. And I am happy to say my LSAT journey is over!!!! If I can do it, so can you.

I did the LSAT untimed to see whats my problem, and my problem is timing. How do I improve timing

When I look up the definition of "once", it works like "when" - a Group 1 Indiciator.

I wanted to start with some statements and let's assume them all true.

Somehow, I think "once" / "as long as" works the same way as "if and only if".

Any thoughts are appreciated.

Hi,

Is anyone aware of when LSAC will release new PTs and when they will be uploaded on 7Sage subsequently?

Also, are the changes to LG section expected to be applied from 2023 cycle?

Thank you!

I've been doing a test each week on Khan Academy. I study the PowerScore LSAT Bibles everyday then take a practice test sometime on the weekends.

Week 1: 147

Week 2: 151

Week 3: 158 (I hit a high point and I really thought I was getting it)

Week 4: 157 (It wasn't too much of a difference so I wasn't too worried)

Week 5: 149

I don't understand how I'm getting worse. I don't think it can be fatigue since I'm only taking on test a week. My analytical reasoning got worse from 10 right to 7 right, my Logical Reasoning got worse from 19 right to 15 right, and my Reading comprehension pretty much stayed the same (around 20 right).

I've been really struggling with Logical Reasoning as I'd think I understand the answers then get fooled again every time. And while my reading comprehension has stayed the same, I would really like to get it better.

Has anyone else experienced this and can I get any better than 158 or is that probably the best score I'll get now?

Any advice would be great, thanks!****

so I definitely feel like I did worse on the Oct LSAT than the sept LSAT. Would it be smart to purchase score preview and cancel that score or should I keep it? How would law school view a lower score vs a canceled score?

Was wondering if there is a breakdown of the average number of LR questions by question type? The LSAT Trainer book has a page that shows how many of each category is “normally” on each exam. however the categories dont match perfectly with the 7sage curriculum. I figured 7sage must have a breakdown so that we know which categories will have 5-10 questions, and which will have 0-2.

Hey everyone. I hope you all are doing well. I wanted to offer help for any students currently scoring under a 155 on their practice exams or are new and in need of assistance. I am pretty consistently scoring 165+ but I think it would help me to offer assistance in explaining questions and offering strategies to others. Pretty casual and of course no charge, so feel free to pm me. Thanks.

Heed my story as a brief word of caution that could save you some frustration in the future.

When you begin the LSAT writing section, do yourself a favor and flick over to the ProctorU Owl tab that manages your recording and ensure the microphone it's using is set to the correct device. You can do this before opening the reading prompt itself during the pre-check when you hold up an I.D. and take a photo of yourself. The writing sample is self-proctored and does not give you a prompt to check your audio settings. The most it does is flick over to that tab I mentioned to ask what window you want to share (in Chrome, not sure how it looks in Mozilla), but once you hit OK it goes back to the test. Unless you know what you're doing, you'll miss the chance to tweak audio settings.

Storytime:

I have a handful of mics I use for different tasks (Zoom meetings vs. casual PC game nights with pals vs. speaking without a headset on) and sometimes software searching for a mic to record on my computer can become confused by the volume of options. I made the error during my LSAT writing sample of assuming because they were using my webcam to record video, then it would also be recording audio (JY if you read this, don't publicly shame my logical mistake). As you may well know, the writing section is self-proctored, there isn't another human there to say "I can't hear you." So, I went on my merry way, silently crafting a response to the prompt.

I just got an email today asking me to re-take the writing section because my submission did not have any audio due to their software choosing to record an incorrect audio input - in fact, what their software decided to record wasn't even a mic at all. It was a piece of software I use to filter my mic audio output.

If I had been shown the audio input screen more clearly, more deliberately, I would have caught this error immediately and prevented myself from having to take the section twice. When I retook the section today, I found the ProctorU device management screen and manually changed it to my webcam for both video and audio recording. I'm praying this works, otherwise I will be a unhappy camper.

I work full time and have been studying since spring of this year. Since I work, my pace is much slower than ideal (10-15 hours per week).

I need a pretty solid LSAT score since my GPA was like a 3.5 so I keep pushing my test date back. I may apply this year but keep thinking about pushing to next year to give myself better room to study. I am signed up for November but will see how I progress in the next few weeks of studying.

However, I get nervous thinking about waiting a year if large changes by LSAC are coming to logical games. Worried about the sunk cost of studying for something that may get taken off.

Are there any updates on when LSAC is planning on the change? What is the general consensus?

Thank you

Please no sarcastic answers. I did it once and forgot what I did and have stuff in personal life so had to take a break just looking for help. when I "stimulate" modern with a test, it gives me 3 sections. How can I stimulate to get lsat flex score (3 sections graded) but still take 4 section test? does this make sense? I did it for my first pt on here so I know its possible but I forgot what I did? Step by step would be much appreciated.

Thank you so much!

Hey 7Sagers! Check out this week's newsletter: https://7sage.substack.com/p/more-breaks-less-burnout?sd=pf and read about the importance of taking breaks in your LSAT studying (+ an RC tip)!

I have been studying on and off for 2 years. This the first time I been consistent with studying. I have basically finished the 7sage curriculum. I have started taking practice exams every Saturday. My actual score is low but my blind review’s are 10+ points higher. I been thinking about moving it up to 2 practice exams a week. But, I am not scoring consistently where I want and I don’t want to burn through my testing material. Some days I am getting questions right in the 170s and some days I kiss questions in the low 150s. I think I been studying too long my brain is full of material. I am scheduled to take the November and January LSAT. I plan to apply this application cycle and don’t want to push off applying another year. What should I do?
