LSAC has released three recent official PrepTests (2023, 2024, and 2025). These are the four Logical Reasoning questions I missed from the January 2023 exam. If anyone—especially tutors—is able to provide explanations for them, I would really appreciate it.
I started studying about 3 months ago and began with a 153 diagnostic (post-core curriculum). After two weeks of drilling, I worked my score up to 160. Then, I scored a 159. After that plateau, I read Ellen Caddiy's the Loophole and went over the fundamentals of LR while also going through the fundamentals of RC again. After 1 month of that, I scored a 157. I think it might be because I was largely practicing untimed drills during that time of re-learning the fundamentals. Now, I have been consistently doing timed sections for over a week and still I am testing at 159, unable to improve. Not sure what to do at this point. Is it worth paying for a tutor? I am scheduled to take the test in April.
Hi all! I began my LSAT studying today, but previously took two practice tests. One last month, and the other in November 2025. I'm located in Chicago, IL, and would like to know if there are any other individuals in the area with an LSAT timeline similar to mine. I aim to take my first, and hopefully only, LSAT test in either June or August 2026, depending on my PT scores.
Are there any study groups created for individuals in the area? Any study spots any of you all would recommend as well? Please let me know! (:
EDIT: I have received a few messages from individuals expressing interest in joining a study group in the Chicagoland area. I've created a dedicated study group chat. Please join below!
I just finished the theory/core core curriculum today and am moving into the practice/drilling phase of my studying. For the theory I watched every video explanation for every question because I wanted to focus my time and energy on understanding the test. As I move into the drilling phase where I am turning my focus towards answering questions correctly and quickly I am wondering if it is still worth my time to watch video explanations even for questions I confidently got right. If anyone has any tips/suggestions on what has worked for them in the drilling phase please let me know! Thanks!
Hi! I’m wondering whether, and to what extent, your speed improved over time on sections or practice tests. I am happy with my score, but right now I am taking double time on everything. Should I expect that over time, my score will stay the same while my time decreases?
Do you have any tips for getting faster?
Thank you so much for your help! :)

I am so happy to prep with 7Sage!!! 7Sage is No. 1!!!
I took the LSAT in my final year of college and got a pretty good score (169). Right now, I'm studying for June or August to see if I can improve on that for when I apply next fall. If my PT's aren't trending well by test time and it seems like I may not improve, I plan on not taking the test and going with my old score just to avoid scoring lower.
Would I be negatively affected by applying with a 2 year old LSAT score? I've seen some schools, Notre Dame, for one, say that they recommend taking the LSAT within a year of applying.
Usually when I complete a question during a drill, one of the first stats I look at his how much time I spent on the question. But now when I hit analytics, the time I spent (and whether I was over or under the ideal time) is hidden and I need to expand that side tab in order to see my time analytics. Is this a recent update or just a glitch on my laptop?
Hey guys. I’m in the South Houston area looking for study partners with the LSAT. I’ve been studying, but I feel like if I had partners, I’d be more consistent and motivated. I also learn better while bouncing ideas off of others. If you’re in this area and need a partner, please reach out.
7Sage INSTRUCTORS ARE THE BEST!!!
Hello all, I started this program back in early February and been trying to keep up with a full time job, helping out my wife (she’s in full time school and full time job and on top of all of that, a part time internship 😅) and trying not to go insane! I found a great discussion post recently about when to study and for how long which made me feel a lot better about where I am at so far, however, I feel like I’m moving extremely slow, especially with the study plan. I’m technically behind it according to 7sages recommendation which is fine, it mostly feels like I’m learning something and then trying it out but then immediately learning something new again. For example last week ish I was on must be true examples and questions and now I’m on resolve, reconcile and explain questions, which I’m definitely struggling with. Anyways my main question here is I’m going to keep moving with the study plan but should I be adding some more drills to my practice?
Hi all,
I just finished the NA module and am doing some drills but it's going horribly. I know these questions are really difficult, but I just can't seem to get a grasp on it.
I know that these questions depend on your making your own assumptions based on the information given, but it's annoying when the explanations make it seem like you're supposed to get that one specific assumption. I guess I'm frustrated because you can come up with so many assumptions, but the right one is like the 3rd one you came up with and it's said in a very convoluted way in the answer choice, and on top of that, you also have to do the negation test, which for me is also a bit confusing...
It's making me feel like I'm not good at making assumptions and then also the negation test frustrates me as well because it wants me to negate (which I am good at, all my negations match up) but I can't seem to figure its relationship with the argument...
I don't really know what the point of this post was, maybe partially to rant, but I think I just would like your guys' input on what you did to overcome the difficulty, frustration and feeling like nothing in the NA makes sense because I feel like I'm about to start tearing out hairs..
Anyone have any advice on how to get over this hump with conditional reasoning. I took the LSAT back in September 2025 and got a 151 with 3 months on little to moderate studying while working 40+ hours a week. I had not done anything LSAT until a week ago and I received a 140. I find myself getting lost in the middle of the question and my focus is becoming blurry. I notice this most with Conditional reasoning questions. Anyone have advice? I need at least a 163 to aim for my school of choice (FIU), but I don't see that happening when I take this thing in April & June.
Looking for a study group here in Miami for the April and June LSATs.
Hi,
I am signed up for the April LSAT and I only have 7 fresh RC sections and 12 LR sections left. Should I take a break for a few weeks and consolidate those sections into the month before my exam? Should I try another LSAT prep program? Should I invest in a tutor? Since I am going on vacation for 9 days in early March, should I just postpone my first exam to June? I have been testing at low 160s but I feel like I am about to break into mid 160s based on relearning the fundamentals, but I'm just not sure what to do. I am fully committed to applying for the Fall 2027 cycle. Seeking guidance.
So today, I just scored for the first time within the region of my target score. My PT's are untimed; however, I will have more than enough time on the test for accommodations reasons. The deadline is soon and I am debating whether I should apply, I scored a 159; however, I felt like this PT was the first PT where the answers were apparent and I rarely guessed. My goal score is upper 160s, preferably 167+. I want to allow myself to have enough time to retake the LSAT, and I feel that August is notoriously one of the harder tests, if I take April it gives me a better chance to have more time to score better, while also having a less competitive pool. Do I register for April or wait for June? HELP!!!!
I love the video explanations!!! They are so helpful! 10 ⭐️!

Hi there,
I have been drilling 15 questions per session LR (RC on the side as well) and I am finding that I am doing terrible during the actual attempt (such as 7/15-9/15) to (13-14/15) during BR. Does anyone have tips on how to master the timing strategies. I've looked around for a while but still struggling on the timing.
Any recommendations would be helpful.
Thank you
hi! I have been studying consistently for (typically) 2-3 hrs a day since maybe july 2025, often doing timed or untimed sections, reviewing thoroughly, and occasionally drilling when i noticed a pattern of mistakes. Im finally at the point where im scoring low 170s and have signed up for the april test, yet still hoping that my final score will be in the mid to high 170s. i don't notice any more clear patterns to my mistakes.
is there any recommendation for breaking this plateau ~2 months out from the test? are there recommended daily schedules that have worked for people in my position ~2 months out? thank you !!
Hello! I have been studying for the lsat for a long time. I plan on taking the June exam. As of right now, I am getting the questions correct, however i am struggling a lot with time. Any tips?
Anyone else having the issue where the time the question was done in is not showing up? I have to refresh the page for the timing section in the analytics to show up for every question.
I created a study plan with 7Sage's plan creator. It looks like I will be working on learning the foundation, LR, and RC for the next 9 weeks and then will have 12 weeks of practice. It gives some problems here and there within the plan but not a lot to where I'm actually drilling. Should I be doing weekly PTs during the 9 weeks of theory? Should I be doing other drilling as well? I think the PTs and drilling are in the "practice" section of this course but I didn't know if I should just start them now.
