I am about 28% through the CC and I honestly cannot feel myself progressing, perhaps it will all come to fruition once I finish it and begin taking PT's but I can't lie, it becomes really discouraging to consistently get so many of the drill sets wrong :/ any advice i guess lol

Am I the only one experiencing this? I was currently on introduction to lawgic ldoing practice questions of the groups but noticed the video hasn't appeared. i already cleared my data and im unsure what to do.

On the February LSAT, or any upcoming LSAT really, is any one section more likely to appear as an experimental, or does each have a 1/3 chance? I see lots of 2 LR sections for recent exams posted recently than 2 LG, for example. maybe sampling bias ?

Hello! I have just begun studying for my LSAT and was wondering if you all think its necessary to watch video explanations for questions that you got right?

So I took LSAT in Oct-2022 after my last score expired and received 178+.

The HLS website says one can't apply more than 3-times.

I applied earlier that many times with only 165 and later with 171 but sometimes very late in the cycle.

Now my stats are much improved and have gained additional strong softs since last app.

Is this application limit retroactive or any exceptions?

Is anyone in similar boat or looked into this before?

I feel stuck. I am going through the syllabus as suggested but I don't feel like this is the best way to improve. I feel as that I should be taking drills and practice tests in between. Is this the best way to get the most from the program? How are you guys studying?

I really want to go to UVA; however, my GPA is way low (3.28) cumulative. Additionally, I have canceled my LSAT score twice. Whenever I was able to view my score before deciding if I wanted to keep it or not, I scored a pathetic 139.

Am I deluding myself in even thinking this is a possibility? It's pretty much UVA or bust for me. I have done enough research to know that for me UVA is by far the best law school in the country for me personally. It literally checks all the boxes.

I'm just looking for some input on this whole issue. What percentage of LSAT students raise their scores by 30+ points? How realistic of a possibility is it? Is it worth the mental and emotional energy to even pursue?

I have so much internal conflict in my mind about what direction I want to go in. Although I am essentially dead set on UVA, in theory I suppose I could attend Penn State University Park's law school, as I am a Penn State alumni and would be eligible for $20,000 a year, minimum; however, big law prospects would essentially be nonexistent from this school. (I would want to pursue a career in international law).

Because of my autism, I have a tendency to get obsessed with the idea of attending law school; however, to this point how that has manifested in studying is that I have been far too scattered in my approach. I am going to post a poll to see what others think about the direction I should go in. That's it for now. Thanks to everyone who read this post.

Has 7sage ever considered a flat fee that would provide users permanent access to all the course material/practice tests instead of a monthly fee to access the material? I know that some other sites provide permanent access to the material if you pay the fee.

Hi! I hope everyone is doing well. For my first attempt at LSAT Writing, I didn't leave any time at the end to write the conclusion (I tried to copy-paste something I had already written multiple times, but it never worked). I did write my main point as the introduction of my essay, but I know it's important for essays to end with a one-sentence conclusion at the very least. I'm planning to take the LSAT again and am considering redoing the writing sample as well because of my nonexistent conclusion. :(

Did anyone else have an issue with the copy-paste function? Also, do you think it's worth it to redo the writing sample? Thanks in advance!

Hi! I'm still in the beginning stages of the core curriculum, and am wondering what to do with the drills (not the problem sets) in each section? Would you recommend saving those until the end of the core curriculum or drilling as you finish up each section?

Thanks!

Hello,

I have recently been given the "pause" accommodation where there will be a pause button on the test interface. I have been researching this accommodation, but LSAC does not mention much about how to use it or what it really allows. Has anyone used this accommodation and could give some tips?

All I have really found is that your testing session can not exceed 10 hours.

Thanks

Hello! I was wondering if anyone had any good tips or resources regarding the writing portion of the LSAT (videos, sample essays, etc). I'm planning on doing it today or tomorrow night, but maybe I'm rushing it... any help would be appreciated!

When learning Basic Translation Groups 1 and 2, I noticed that an example pertaining to Group 1 was worded as so:

"Where the judges are independent there will be a good legal system."

I can't seem to find the correlation with the word 'where' in this sentence and how it fits into Group 1. Can someone maybe explain why it is similar to the word group that goes with Group 1, and how it can't be with the word group for Group 2: Only, Only If, Only When, Only Where, Always, Must.

Thanks!

Hello!!

I would like to score a 175+ on this test, and I have read numerous answers about how to approach the problem sets. If I want that high score of a score, should I do each and every problem set? I don't want to run out of fresh questions, but also, I know I won't remember all of them if I do. I am around week 2, so I would love to hear advice from others who are further in the curriculum.

Thank you for your help.

I'm currently signed up to take the February exam. I took the LSAT in October and got a 164, and I'm really hoping to get at least a 170 since this would be my third attempt, and I won't be able to take any more exams until the next cycle begins. I was studying on and off between November and December, and recently committed myself to studying full time since I graduated from college a semester early. However, I just took a practice exam and got a 164, the exact same score as my real test. On the other hand, if I were to continue studying as I am now until April, it would be taking up a lot of time I could spend on other things, like finding a job or working on applications. Is it possible to improve in such a short amount of time if I really commit to it, or would I be better off saving my last attempt for the testing cycle and buying myself a little more time?

I very recently got approved for accommodations in the form of 150% time--53 minutes/section. I have taken the test one time without extended time, and I have been studying for my upcoming test since November 2022 without that in mind either. I am seeking advice on how to adjust my studying. I don't want to "relax" too much and get slow, but I don't want to rush myself either. I was wondering, also, if any forums/blogs address this adjustment. Thanks!

Hey guys. I was wondering why I couldn't sign up for any exams after June 9th. Is it because they just haven't posted those yet? Or will there even be tests during then? I know there were last year. I graduate undergrad this year and hope to be able to apply for early decision by November 1st for law school so I can attend next year 2024, otherwise i'll have to wait until 2025. The cycle is so annoying. If there are going to be Sep/Oct tests this year my life would be so much easier. I already plan to take the June exam but would like a backup date if I dont like my score.

I couldn't access my original 7Sage account so I made a new one and purchased monthly + Prep Plus. However 7Sage + LSAC won't let me link the accounts, so I'm out $168. I can now access my original account, but my new account is useless and I lost that money. I can put a block on my credit card to prevent the purchase, but any idea how to resolve this? I want to be able to use 7Sage but I'm not dropping another $168 just for it to not work again.

Hello everyone! I'm still going through the CC and reached the section about "Some and Most Relationships." I understand that the negation of "all" is "some not."

"All A's are B's."

Group 1 translation: A→B

Negation: A←some→/B

This might be a silly question, but does this mean that all the logical indicators in group 1 should be negated this way? For example:

"As long as there are A's, there are B's."

Group 1 translation: A→B

Negation: A←some→/B

And does this also apply to groups 2, 3, and 4? Does "all" basically represent all the universal quantifiers we learned in "Intro to Logic"?

Thank you!

Hi everyone,

I’m planning on taking the Feb LSAT and my score goal is 160-165. I have been feeling so down after finding out my score in October which was 140. I‘ve been studying on and off for the last few months and hasn’t been doing so well in PT. This has been making me feel even more bad about myself. Any advice about what I should do would be greatly appreciated.

Hey guys . I hope you are well.

I am an international examiner and this is just 7 months which I started to learn English.

I have conquered LG ( -1/-2 per section timely )

I score 16/17 from 25 in LR timely ( -4/-5 after BR )

And I have just started working on RC . You know for strengthening my reading skill I read books in English and now I can solve almost all of the RC's questions(at least of medium passages ) untimely and I fear what will be the results on time condition!

For now what is your recommendation for getting better on LR or RC by knowing that I will register for Aprill or June and I wanna apply for 2024 and my international GPA is 3.4 and I need a full-ride scholarship and so better ranked school is more interesting and I wanna show my best on Lsat!

Best wishes !

Hello -- I just started using 7sage and am making my way through the curriculum, but I am unsure about what point in my studies I should start taking practice tests? Are most folks waiting until they have completed the entire curriculum to start focusing on PTs? I don't have plans to take the LSAT for at least another five months, so wondering what strategies others have had success with when it came to utilizing 7sage most effectively.

Thanks!

Hey everyone, Im getting super confused regarding the new LSAT structure / format. I keep reading that LR counts for 50% or your total score because there are 2 LR sections. However, LSAC is now saying that: "Beginning with the August 2021 LSAT, the test will include three scored sections and one unscored section...The unscored section can be any one of the question types — reading comprehension, analytical reasoning, or logical reasoning — and can occur at any point in the test. The LSAT will retain this format for the next several years."

Since the unscored section doesn't have to be LR, does this mean that LR no longer counts for 50% of your score? Thank you!

Hi All,

I really like looking at the discussions for each individual question, or discussions about a particular RC section, or LG. Is there a space where there are general Prep Test discussions had? I just completed PT 39, and would like to see what others had to say about a prep test that gave me a hard time.
