Drills and Blind Review

I have done the fast track drills for Logical Reasoning, and am now beginning to do practice drills. On these practice drills, I will get a bunch of questions wrong on my first time through and then get 100% or close to it on the blind review. Does anyone have any tips or tricks to get these questions right the first time through?

Thanks!!

I am taking the LSAT in June, but may retake it in August, depending on how I do.

I have roughly 10 fresh tests left in the PT140-120 range. After that, I would have to take even older tests for them to be fresh.

Any suggestions for rationing tests? Really haven't thought about it before now (though I definitely should have) ....

I grind a lot of sections, and I think that has reduced my pool a decent amount.

This is probably premature since I haven't taken a real LSAT yet. But currently I'm drilling in high 150s - low 160s, which an occasional jump to the high 160s, however, standardized tests are not my forte. I currently have a GPA well above most medians, so I was just wondering if anyone had advice for a person in my spot.

  • The only thing necessary for A is B

  • The only requirement for A is B

  • All that is needed for A is B

Do these all indicate bidirectionals?

Hi! So I've finally been on an upward trend. From earliest to most recent, my last 4 practice tests were a 168, 169, 168... and a 162, from today. I don't know if it's because PT 151 is notoriously difficult, but I don't want to make excuses since it is graded fairly and there is a big possibility that could be what my June LSAT experience is like. I don't know what happened; I thought I did a little worse but that shocked me. I genuinely took off like 1.5 days from studying because of burnout, but I didn't feel tired when I took the test! I'm nervous for my June LSAT now, as my goal score was a 168. I thought I had been prepping correctly, but I'm wondering if these more recent tests are going to reflect the actual test I take, although I did get a 169 on PT 150...

I don't even know what to work on anymore or how to improve. And worse, when I went to review the questions I got wrong, they didn't click like they usually do. There's no way what I'm being asked to do is different than any other time, yet it really felt like I was starting fresh today :(

I just scored a 172 on PT 158 and most of the questions I miss now come from careless mistakes or overthinking rather than understanding the material. For people who scored in the 170s on the LSAT, what helped you tighten those last few errors?

Also, if you were simulating real testing conditions and were generally a strong standardized test taker, how close was your real score to your PT average?

Flakey Tutors

Hi - I need a reliable tutor to help me the last few weeks before my June test. Willing to pay for 2 weeks straight of tutoring and cramming. Please DM privately your details and how much etc.

Starting Over!!

Hi All!

Just wondering if there is anyone at all in the same boat as me. I am reapplying to schools after being academically dismissed from another law school... for absolutely unacceptable and abhorrent reasons that have no reflection of my academic capabilities... but we are over that and not dwelling on it. I have decided to take the August LSAT. I have not taken it since 2024. I have never taken it without the Logic Games, and I was never given my proper FULL extra time accommodations.

After already experiencing a year and 1/2 in law school, my personality and confidence levels are totally different. I am also non-traditional (I am 39). Anyway, I am looking for people who are not super new to the LSAT, so people who have taken it a few times before. I am in Southern California, in case anyone is wondering. I have to nail this LSAT. I am aiming for about a 165-170 (realistically). I cannot stress the importance of taking those extra-time accommodations if you qualify for them. I felt the stigma of it back when I first started this process, so I only used the minimum, even though I qualify for the max. In school, I finally started using my full accommodations in my last term before my dismissal.

Lemme know if there are any study groups for "LSAT veterans" lol or wounded warriors ... people who enjoy this torture!!! .... who are forming a study group. I am enrolled in one of the weekly courses. It is the one that meets Mondays & Thursdays at 6pm (pacific time)/ 9pm (eastern). Much Love & Good Vibes to everyone!

Conditional Logic

Confusing necessary and sufficient conditions is a problem for me. I’m trying my hardest to understand conditional logic through videos but it’s not clicking. Does anyone know any other methods or tools I could use? I’m a visual learner.

My score on my last 2 practice tests have been the same. I have been journaling wrong answers and blind reviewing. What are some additional things I can do to help with this?

Hi everyone -

I've been studying on and off for the LSAT for over a year now, but began studying more seriously for the exam in December. I'm planning on applying by mid-September for the upcoming cycle and am registered to take the exam in June.

I'd like to get a 175+, but I have been frustratingly hovering around ~171 for the last few months.

Few questions:

1) Should I plan on taking the exam in August as well? I was hoping to focus exclusively on applications after June (and get a much-needed break from prep), but I am willing to take some extra time to get the score I want. Since it'll take a few weeks for the score to come out, I am not sure if I should just continue to study during that period.

2) Would it be worth investing in a tutor this late into May for the June exam?

Thanks everyone!

Hello everyone! My name is Kyle. I got a 171 on the November 2025 LSAT, and I plan on taking the August or September 2026 LSAT. Long story short, I've decided to R&R for this next cycle, so I'd be happy to discuss admissions too if anyone has specific questions. My cold diagnostic was a 151, and my total study time from that to the 171 was 10 months, with the last three months being when I really consistently studied.

I feel that I have a pretty good understanding of this test, and would love to help anyone who is interested, as teaching/helping others will definitely help me make improvements over the next couple of months as well.

I would be happy to meet with people either individually or in smaller groups probably 2 or 3 times a week, that will ultimately depend on if anyone is interested. Let me know!

I am going through the foundational elements right now. I have found that many of the actual LR arguments are more complicated than the arguments that are in the lesson plan, so I am looking for some additional practice on identifying the premise, conclusion, subconclusion, etc of an argument. I was wondering if anyone has any recommendations for that without having to burn through practice problems and drills.

Hi guys!

I am sitting for the LSAT in June, and am pretty confident I will also be sitting in August. Once I have taken the first LSAT and have my first official score, what do I do next concerning 7Sage? I have adored the structure and the lesson plans thus far, and want to continue using 7Sage for the August LSAT. I know there is a place to input my official score on my personal page, but what happens next? Am I supplied with new drilling in my study plan? Do I start an entirely new study plan? Is it entirely independent study and drilling from there on? If so, how do I determine my own course of study? Many questions!

Thank you guys so much! ◡̈

People who are employed full time: Where are yall finding the time to study? I work around 50 hours a week and commute 40 minutes to and from work (in-person every day, including some weekends). Been really struggling to carve out time and feeling really frustrated.

PT Scores vs LSAT Score

Hello All!

What differences did you see between your LSAT score and your PT scores you took prior? Was it a 5-point difference like some say? Was it relatively the same?

Second guessing

I am planning to take the June LSAT but lately I have been feeling really stressed. On practice LR sets I second guess myself during AC evaluation and sometimes take too long, but then during blind review I easily understand the question and chose the right AC. Additionally, I keep getting in my head about not maximizing my study time efficiently and not studying hard enough. Anyone else feeling the same? If so was there anything that helped you get out of your thoughts?

I posted about this a few weeks ago and it got a lot of people requesting for it. I think there is over 100 people using it now.

Over the last few weeks I built a wrong answer journal to log answers, jot down why I picked what I picked, and surface patterns over time. I couldn't find ANYTHING on the internet except an Etsy template :0

I figured before I sink more time into it, I'd rather hear from other people grinding LR whether it's actually useful or whether I'm solving a problem only I have.

What I'd genuinely like feedback on

  • Does the flow of logging a missed question feel faster than a spreadsheet, or more annoying?

  • Anything that feels broken, confusing, or just ugly?

  • Stuff you'd want it to do that it doesn't? (or if it just does not work well)

Thank you all!

If you're willing to help me out or want the link, maybe drop a comment or send me a DM.

PS - It's free, there's no paywall. I'm not trying to sell anything and I'm not a company. Just a test-taker who wanted the tool to exist (since literally there isn't any other WAJ option)

Tough question to answer, but does anyone know roughly how many of each "level" of question type there is on the LSAT. Questions on here are graded by difficulty, so I was wondering if the test is mostly questions that would be 3+ difficulty or what?

Thanks for any answers
