I started about 1 month ago. It takes me on LR drills 2-4 minutes per problem, basically to absorb the words in the premise, a quick diagram sometimes, and then going through the answers. Im not a slow reader (nor fast). But I cannot contain a LR passage in my head. I assume this is normal. So, improvement in speed comes with practice and applied methods?
In terms of learning the approach, better results if I memorize the concepts, approaches, etc? Im still working intuitively.

Could someone explain the analytics that come up when you complete a "You Try" or "Drill" section? What are the scores with benchmarks that say "180-scorers got 96% right" or "180-scorers got 0% right", dependent on? For example, it will say, "Closing the gap with your goal score will require getting 3.8 more questions correct per test in this tag," but it doesn't make sense because (1) I haven't taken a test yet, and (2) I have been self-tracking and have definitely gotten 4 correct in that section. I don't understand those analytics at all. Also, is there another section on the website that can show me this or anything about my performance so far?
I'm taking the test in April and have finished the entire curriculum now, but will go over foundations again because I need a refresher before I start drilling seriously. I kinda wanted to have someone (can be multiple people) so we could keep each other accountable and make sure we're both studying. I'm more of a self learner so it wouldn't be like we teach other stuff but I would be glad to help if any questions arise. (My diagnostic was a 146 so idk where I'm at now, but my overall goal is mid 160s by April and hopefully high 160s or low 170s by June/August)
I am taking the LSAT in April. I have been trying to get through the Core Curriculum since October, and I just find a lot of the diagrams and skills that they recommend using to not work for me, or to be more confusing to understand. Any recommendations on what I should focus on to get my score from 150 to 160?
Hello everyone, I take the February LSAT and I am PTing at mid 150s and BR in mid 160s. What is the best way to close that gap and reach my blind review score? I drill questions but I seem to be in rut.
I just scored a 156 on PT127. Inital PT was a 152 on 12/23/25. Less than a month in and I'm motivated! Wanting to be in the 160s!
Finally test day @2:30pm today! Just wanna take the time to say good luck to everyone who has/will be taking the LSAT. This platform and community has been so encouraging, and a great resource. For anyone just starting, use this discussion board to vent! Realizing you’re not alone makes all the difference. Good luck everyone, thanks for all the support, and God bless!
hi! I am realizing I have trouble identifying the main conclusion in reading passages, as simple as it is. I often highlight the statement (or statements) that jumps out in the passage as conclusion statements, yet when i get to the ACs i am often stuck between something that reflects those sentences exactly or something that is more all encompassing of the passage (ie will nod to an earlier paragraph or theme). do people recommend drilling "find the main conclusion" questions for RC passages? or drilling full passages with the complete set of questions?
or if there's a particular strategy to deep reviewing these questions? that would be super helpful, thank you.
Hi everyone! I’ve been working on some logical reasoning topics again, and it seems like AP questions are the ones that really challenge me. Does anyone have any tips or advice on how to better understand the stimulus and the answer choices? Thanks!
hello, I was wondering if anyone knows if theres a way to get a written summary/notes of the core curriculum that is on & 7sage. Thank you
Hi all,
I just did a practice section on PT23.S1. I'm trying to look up answer explanations, but apparently PT23.S1 was a logic games section and not LR. Where did 7Sage get these LR questions?
Any help's appreciated, thanks!
I just started studying for the LSAT, and I am consistently getting (most) answers wrong from Q15 to Q25-26 on LR, one or two before Q15.
Does this mean anything? Does this mean I should study harder questions? Looking for outside opinions.
I took my first post-CC Preptest, and I'm pretty disappointed with the results.
It wasn't really about the score, but the amount of questions I missed in each section, specifically LR. It just feels like I haven't made any progress since taking my diagnostic, learning and finishing the CC, and now taking my first post-CC Preptest.
I did notice two things that I'd like to hear other folks' thoughts on.
1) I noticed that I reread the LR stimulus before ID'ing the Premises and Conclusion. First, I would read the question, and ID it. Second, I would read the stimulus once, then reread it again while highlighting the Premises and Conclusion. I think it's a really bad habit and would like to break it. Has anyone else had similar experiences? Any advice on breaking it? What can I do to take in the stimulus better on the first read?
2) I can feel myself rushing starting question 10. The first point gets worse when I'm rushing too. How do folks manage "rushing"? What can you do tell yourself not to rush? Or, how can you practice and drill to not rush?
Thank you!
I recently started prepping with 7sage last week and feel more confused from when i started. I am starting to see how lawgic helps but its simply too much for me to process at once. 6 different argument types or whatever + a million different words that dont mean what I have understood them to mean since I learned the english language, its too much (some meaning all specifically). Any advice on how to improve with lawgic?
does anyone know what the bookmark tag on drilling questions at the top of the screen means?
Hello!!! I need help and hopefully my explanation makes sense. I just started heavily studying for the LSAT this month. I’m currently learning LR material, specifically how to identify flaws in arguments. The only problem now is that I often feel like I see MULTIPLE flaws within one argument in a question. Is this an incorrect way to think about the arguments? Does anyone have any advice for how to zero in on the one specific flaw we’re supposed to focus on in order to answer the question?
I've finished the reading comprehension curriculum and have always been under the impression that we should create the low-res summary in our head (which has been difficult for me but I'm trying to get better at it to save time). Is anyone writing them down and finding they have enough time to answer. I've been struggling with the timing the most on these RC questions, so wondered if you all had any strategies?
Hi all - I've read posts on LinkedIn and Reddit (reliable sources, I know) about how some January test takers did not have a comparative passage in their RC section. Is this something that will be new going forward? Can 7Sage confirm?

How do you make the smartest possible use of your remaining time before the February LSAT? In this episode, Henry and Bailey break down what an effective final push really looks like and why pattern recognition, not brute-force drilling, is the key to making real gains late in the game. They talk about how to spot recurring structures in Logical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension, how to review in a way that actually builds intuition, and how to avoid common last-minute mistakes that waste time and energy. If you are locked in on the February test and want to study with intention instead of panic, this episode is for you.
Hi I have a question for Kevin and JY. I just saw this and I wanted to ask how 7sage is adjusting
Hi! Im currently having trouble with this question type. Even after going through the lesson plan on these questions, i'm having a bit of trouble. I keep getting less than half of the questions im doing right. Does anyone have a good approach when it comes to these questions. PLLLLLSSS HELLLP :))))
To begin, no matter what I do, unless the questions is super easy, I cannot identify what is necessary for a conclusion to be true. I've tried finding a stategy that works for me, but nothing is clicking.
Common suggestions that don't work and why:
Negation technique - Even if I negate something and say it's not true, when I look back at the stimulus the conclusion no longer seems wholeheartedly sound. But it ends up being wrong all the time. Even if I negate something, I cannot identify why it's necessary or not.
Must be True - I suck at MBT questions, but even those are easier than NA's. But again, for the same reason as above, I can't look at a question and identify what is necessary for the argument to be true.
Identify the Gap - Most of the time I ask myself, why does P-> C, which I know is used for Sufficent questions, but it's the only stategy that actually feels like a stategy. But I can't identify a gap or flaw in the logic, becuase 9/10 I'm wrong.
Is there any other stategy to tackling these questions than using the negation technique that could help me identify what is necessary for an argument to take place?
Hi, I just got a subscription through my LSAC fee waiver and have a few questions regarding my study plan. I plan to take my LSAT in June and have been self-studying for about a month so far. I started with LawHub's free video lessons and drill sets, and then did 7Sage's LR mini course on Youtube. I got a 158 on my diagnostic this past weekend. I notice that the 7Sage curriculum starts with videos and gets into practice later, but want to practice a bit every day if possible. If I do 5-15 questions each day in either LR or RC, will I mess up the practice plan that 7Sage has implemented in the later portion of my study plan? Is it even reasonable for me to practice throughout the foundations/theory part of the course? I am also a full time student with a job, so I'm trying to create a structured plan ASAP. Thanks!
I find that both the font size of the words and the size of the computer screen impacts my ability to read questions and passages. Last time I took the test I know they have a big monitor to use, but does anyone know if you can adjust the font size on the actual test?
Hi! I have been at this plateau for the last ~6 months. In the last 9 practice tests I've taken, only 3 have been in the 170s. How do I move past this barrier when I feel confident abt questions during the test? Are there recommended daily study routines? I fluctuate between getting -2 and -5 wrong on an LR section and I would just love to get consistent.
Please help. My goal is mid -170s
