I've put putting in the work for about two months and seen great improvement. My initial diagnostic score was a 145 and I was able to increase that to a 154 on the October LSAT. My logical reasoning sections tend to be very hit or miss. Example: I just took a full LSAT today and on the first section I made it through all but one problem and scored 20/25. On the second LR section I made it through the same number of problems and got a 13/27 which is much lower than my normal. I usally score about 17/18 correct every section.

I am wondering if anyone has any advice for narrowing the gap between my good sections and my really bad ones. I've reviewed and cannot determine why I did so well on one and not the other. I'm taking the LSAT again tomorrow and hoping to get a few points higher than I did in October. Any last minute tips would be appreciated!

Hey! I want to draw your attention to three Fast Track lessons available at the end of the LR Unit:

These are designed to be short (~1 hour) overview lessons for people starting with a high diagnostic, or review lessons for people who have gone through the CC or other curriculum and just want a refresher on important points.

Since we're planning to make more of these, I'm eager to hear some feedback to make future lessons better. Most people won't see these lessons as part of their study plans, so I'm bringing this request to the Discussion forum. Thanks!

Hi 7Sage!

I'll be taking my second LSAT this Friday, but I'm definitely planning on taking a third in January. I've been in the mid-160s since starting 7Sage in September, but my Blind Review scores are always somewhere in the high 160s/low 170s.

I'm usually stuck between two answers but always seem to pick the wrong one—I just completed a LR section where I got -7 on the first run-through and -0 during Blind Review.

Any advice on how to close the gap? Thanks!!

So what has helped everyone determine if something is an argument or not an argument in LR questions?

Hello,

Ive been really struggling with the main point or main idea questions in RC, I consistently get the first question wrong and I was wondering if anyone had any insights or tips on how to overcome this. Thank you! :)

Is there a rule of thumb about when it's okay to consider common sense outside information and when it's not? For example, in PT132.S4.Q17, wrong answer choice (E) cites smoking as an explanation for cancer/heart disease even though the stimulus didn't mention smoking. However, in other questions (that I can't think of to link) answer choices with external information were written off. Would appreciate any insight, it's really starting to trip me up...

Hello, I am fairly new to studying for the LSAT and my plan is to take the first LSAT in June 2026. I am trying to get a 175, but I don't know how to approach the studying. According to the study plan I should spend the first 10 weeks or so on the core curriculum and then after start practicing/drilling. Is that what I should do? Or should I structure my studying in another way? For example, I do the core curriculum one day and then practice another day?

Maybe I’m dumb but just took my first PT on lawhub (would’ve taken it on 7sage but I want the free test that comes with the Fee waiver so I have to take two PTs on lawhub) i imported it to 7sage but now I want to BR but don’t have the option to Br that test on 7sage… so I’m wondering what would be the best move now? Retake it self paced on lawhub? Retake that Pt entirely on 7sage and just exclude from analytics?

Any help is appreciated!

Also should I Br the entire test or only what I got wrong? Going from drills to having to Br a whole PT is stressful af

Does anyone have a sheet or google doc with the best tips and tricks to look over before going into test day? I have all my notes but it is a large accumulation of notes from months. Just looking to find a simple tips and tricks sheet. Thanks

Hey guys.

I only saw one recorded class on shallow dipping and tried to look for more but couldn't find them. If you know, can you please list some recorded dates, titles, and instructor names for me to look up so I can continue practicing with the recording? Thank you.

Does anyone have an easy way to break this down to make this make sense? I take the LSAT in january so i need help with fast easy and quick tips

I just looked at my drilling stats, and it says that I am drilling with about 75% accuracy. I have been studying for about two months now and am hoping to take the test in April, but I am dead set on getting in the 170s. Is there any reason for me to be concerned right now with my progress? I am generally an anxious person and don't know if I should re-adjust my expectations or maybe my expected test date?

If you narrow the options down to two choices, does the score given mean you should get AT LEAST NEAR or ABOVE it?

What else could a "50% chance of getting this right" mean?

Yes nothing is exclusive

Yes some have scored 160 on a diagnostic and are ok ✅

BUTTTTT for the rest of us

All things being equal

This has motivated me within.

Do you know that an unwounded oyster does not produce pearls? 

Pearls are a healed wound.

Pearls are a product of pain, the result of a foreign or unwanted substance entering the oyster, such as a parasite or a grain of sand. 

The inside of an oyster shell is a shiny substance called nacre.  When a grain of sand enters the nacre cells go to work and cover the grain of sand with layers and more layers to protect the defenseless body from the oyster. As a result a beautiful oyster is formed! 

An oyster that has not been wounded in any way cannot produce pearls, because a pearl is a healed wound.”

The three-spine stickleback is a small fish that lives both in oceans and in freshwater lakes. While ocean stickleback are covered with armor to protect them from their predators, lake stickleback have virtually no armor.

Since armor limits the speed of a stickleback's growth, this indicates that having a larger size is a better defense against the lake stickleback's predators than having

armor.

Which one of the following, if true, weakens the argument?

A) Sticklebacks with armor are unable to swim as fast, making them most vulnerable to fast-moving predators.

B) Having a larger size is an important factor in whether lake stickleback, but not ocean stickleback, survive cold winters.

C) Unlike ocean stickleback, the lake stickleback are more often preyed upon by predatory insects than by larger fish.

D) Both ocean stickleback and lake stickleback feed primarily on the same types of foods.

E) Sticklebacks originated in the ocean but began populating freshwater lakes and streams following the last ice age.

I absolutely do not understand why the correct answer is B and not C.

I studied LSAT aggressively for two months, completed the core curriculum of 7Sage, then I took my first PT and got 142. I think I def need to revisit the core curriculum but I don't think it's going to be changed enormously by January 2026 and it seems like the core curriculum did not help me at all.

Any tips..?

Why is the correct answer C?

does anyone have a good way of remembering what to look for in each question? I feel like sometimes I have a hard time identifying

Anyone have this information readily available?

Hello, I am planning to buy one of the courses that 7sage offers, and I want to hear feedback from those who have enrolled or are enrolled and their thoughts on it. It would mean a lot. Thank you!

One more LSAT question. Does anyone have advice for matching flaws or parallel reasoning or most similar to the argument type questions? Anything someone said that helped them click for you, or something that helps you get through them quicker? These are the ones I struggle with the most, particularly for pacing and speed.

Hello! As the Nov test approaches, wondering if there are any hacks or strategies for elimination (or deciding between 2) by question type, or if there’s a cheat sheet for that? (For example, language is too strong, new information, temporal, etc.) Having those together would be so helpful.

I test November its less than 2 weeks away, I feel as if I'm mentally checked out in a way from the test. I've been studying for years now with this being my 3rd attempt at the test. Any suggestions? It feels like a burnout, I can't retain information when reading as easily as i was before due to lack of focus. My mind has been on taking the last for the last month or so fully, my stress level feel elevated I don't know if it's a burn out or more so my nerves causing me to become overwhelmed due to past experiences of not reaching my expected score and the feeling of failure. Every time I test I get a higher score but now, I'm extremely overwhelmed and feeling burned out.

any suggestions on how to get my mental together before test day???

As the title suggests, I notice that I do sections (individual portions of the tests), better than I do actually PT sections. Why is that? I notice that my timing is better and overall individual score per section is better when I do sections.

It is really nerve-wracking because of the November LSAT is coming up :(
