Hi, can this be an option for those who have no experimental on their exam due to accommodations?
I'm taking the lsat in two days and I'm currently freaking out because I remember Kevin said something about few and a few not being the same but I can't remember exactly what he said. I know I'm probably just overanalyzing stuff before the test but if anyone remembers, please help :))))
I'm taking the LSAT at home for the first time (had a terrible in-person experience so trying this), but I was wondering if anyone with a gaming PC setup has been dinged for having multiple monitors, mic arms, etc.
I've made a second setup with just a laptop, XL gaming pad, and additional monitor as my "testing zone" but was wondering if secondary monitors/graphic mousepads are dinged and not allowed. Should I keep it to just the laptop and mouse?
Would love to hear about other ppl's experiences testing at home and how I can optimize my setup for seamless testing without having to rework my desk the day of.
I recently completed the core curriculum and am starting a study process of a PT once a week and drilling based on the results of the previous test. However, I am two PT's in and what is killing me the most is just blanking on the stimulus and re-reading it over and over only to have time run out with 8-10 questions left to go.
Is there a specific strategy to focus on improving time, or is it just repetition? Should i grind through PT's anyway, or is it better to just do untimed drills?
I'm feeling beyond defeated with Reading Comp. I know we are not reading for detail, but I still feel like im missing connections that help answer the questions. I feel decent at understanding author's opinion, structure, and keeping low res summaries in mind. Any tips?
Can someone PLEASE give me an easier way to learn reasoning?? Link Assumption, Casual Reasoning, and Conditional Reasoning seem to be the only consistent thing that im getting wrong. Or is there a class that specifically targets reasoning??
I'm trying to increase my speed on easier questions so that I can have more time for hard questions, but then I ended up getting more questions wrong. Is this problem going to go away as I practice more? (when I do blind review with more time I'll get it right so I thought the only problem is that I did not give myself enough time to read more carefully and in more detail). Any suggestions?
I'm still in the Foundations section (a little over halfway through it). I thought I was improving my understanding of the formatting of these questions, but the last 4 LSAT test questions that have come up in the Foundations section, I've been completely lost and got all of them wrong because I got frustrated, couldn't map out the sentence structure and just guessed. Prior to studying, when I was taking test questions, I was averaging about 1/2 -3/4 correct, it just feels like I'm not making any progress and now I'm even backsliding. I take the test in February. Did this happen to anyone else? I'm wondering if it's because my brain is trying to understand the questions in a different way and it's just not there yet. Maybe it's the transition period? Looking for some advice. :(
I started studying for the LSAT on October 1st. I've just been doing the "Core Curriculum" lessons to get a good basis of understanding. Should I be mixing in practice drill questions even though I'm at the beginning of the lessons? If not, when should I begin to mix in the questions with the Core Curriculum lessons I do every day?

Everyone makes mistakes on the LSAT—but some are far more common (and costly) than others. In this episode, Henry and Rahela break down the five traps they see students fall into again and again, and share what separates average scorers from top performers. Whether you’re just starting or chasing that final score bump, you’ll want to hear this before your next practice test.
Does anyone know of any classes from the tutors that would focus on difficult grammar parsing and double-negatives or other things like that? Those ones tend to trip me up, and I'm looking for a way to improve. All the classes seem to be focused on specific question types, but that may not be what I'm looking for.
Hey y'all, I'm studying for the November LSAT, which will be the final LSAT I will take. I feel pretty good about my LR, however my RC is really inconsistent. Sometimes I get -1/-2 and other times I get -7/-8. I want to drill efficiently this upcoming month and want advice on how others have improved their RC sections.
My practice consists of drilling separate passages (timed), where I focus on writing efficient and quick low res sums, and taking full length sections under timed conditions. I also try to join as many RC classes as I can. I'm trying to focus at least a full hour of RC everyday and can up that time.
How should I switch up my studying? Have there been effective practice methods that have worked for you? Would love any and all advice :)!
Hey guys, I need #help on strategizing for LR sections. I've been studying for some time now, and I know that people say that the more you practice, the more you'll see a pattern in wrong answers and right ones. Idk if it's the fact that I initially took some long breaks in between completing the CC or if I'm just overthinking things, but I have not yet seen this pattern. Any and every tip is welcome, thanks in advance!
Hi everyone. I did the LSAT in September and got the results back. I want to know if I should keep or cancel the score.
I have only been studying since mid-July and wasn't expecting a high score considering I got a 136 in my first PT I ever did, and my last PT before the official exam was 147. I got a 147 in the official exam as well and planning to write the Nov LSAT again. My goal is 160(+).
Do you think I should keep the score or delete it? Does anyone know if the cancellation usually tends to have a negative effect on the application, or the schools look at the bright side and see improvement if I score higher in the Nov test?
I am also asking because I have only written the exam once, and the applications are due Nov 1. So is it better to have a low mark on file, or no mark at all before the application deadline?
Hi everyone. I'm realizing that a significant portion of my missed points comes from my RC section. When I do it under unlimited time, I get a pretty good score but under timed conditions, I usually miss 10-12 questions every time. When I get to the last passage, I sometimes only have 5 minutes, so I feel like I guess a lot of the last couple questions. Is there any practical advice that anyone can share for getting better with timing and accuracy that has worked for them...other than doing drills over and over?
Thank you!!
Hello! I recently completed the core curriculum and have now begun transitioning into focused practice. I've noticed that the prioritized drills 7Sage has laid out for me have tags that are attached to multiple question stems.
Curious to see if people have seen improvements by doing the drills as is (the way 7Sage designs it) or by manipulating the analytics in other ways, like singling out question stems (similar to how the curriculum did).
I'd appreciate thoughts on this and any personal experiences or tips as I grow closer to my test date, thank you!
Hello, I just did the diagnostic test and accidentally submitted before doing section 4 because I assumed that was the ungraded section but it was not. So I missed all the questions on that section. Was hoping to redo that section if possible to get an actual diagnostic score. Does anyone know how to do this?
I cannot seem to locate the jillion flagged questions I marked over the last few months. I can find the bookmarked ones, not the flagged ones. Any ideas?
Hi everyone. I'm planning on taking the October test in a few days but I'm not getting past the mid 150s right now. I want to apply with at least a 160 but I'm not sure if that's achievable in a couple days. The problem is that I'm planning on applying this cycle and the next test I can register for is the January one. Last cycle, I took the January test and scored in the high 150s but wasn't accepted in an Ontario school. I'm wondering if the score was the main reason or if it was because my application was considered late because of the late LSAT. Are there considerably lower spots remaining to fill? Are they harsher on your application?
I'm now in the same predicament and can't decide whether I should opt out of this test and take it in January or just take my chances and see if I get accepted with the score I receive. I just don't want to ruin my chances again. Any advice would be appreciated (even if you're not applying in Canada). Thank you!
Any suggestions with not second-guessing yourself when doing the reccommended blind reviews? I got -5 before blind reviewing and then got -9 after. I picked 6 wrong answers during blind review that I got the correct answer for originally. I took my time during the section so I was confident and then saw all the reccomendations for blind review and went downhill. I'm getting closer to test date and I'm second guessing everything now. I think it's the anxiety of testing soon but I'd love to know tips.
This is super last minute seeming as I have a couple hours to make the decision, if I only want to pay $45, but would score preview be worth it. I take the test tomorrow and I took a practice test and scored 156, ... this is my first time taking the test so regardless I would want to retake it, but would it be better to keep my score, assuming I do get a 156. Or if I retake it and score better would it not matter. I thought i decided against buying it but i think too much lol, any advice is helpful
Hi! I'm taking the LSAT on Monday. My RC has always fluctuated, and I am hoping to practice with a really difficult section to make sure I'm ready for a worst-case scenario. Does anyone know of any particular RC sections that are science- and law-heavy and/or just have a lot of hard-to-spot inference questions? Thanks so much, and if you're taking October too, you got this!! <3

When I open my preptest to review this section is missing, how do we access this section?
