Hi everyone,

I'm aiming for a 170 score and finding that my RC score will fluctuate from -0 to -4 / section and I'm trying to get that down/ or at least to something that is consistent

I'm wondering if anyone has had success in changing up the order of how they approach which passage first, second, third, fourth in RC

In LR the questions are automatically easy - hard (besides 18-25 which I usually do backwards once i hit 19)

For RC I've been doing humanities first, then law, then science, and then comparative - I can usually get all comparative right even if I only have 4-5 minutes, so I save it for last bc I know I can rush through it and still be able to guess right

What I've noticed though is I am scoring -2 or -3 on humanities passages even though I do in fact find those easier than law and science. I'm guessing that the reason is because I'm starting with it and I always do better as I go/ get into the zone/ and having easy --> hard in LR helps keep down the curve of error for me there (best LR section score so far: -1!!)

I'm wondering if people would suggest that I start with comparative and then humanities, then law then science? The problem is that I tried that yesterday and wound up not having enough time w science (prob bc I spent almost 7 minutes on comparative which is more than I usually give it -- and I needed those two minutes for science). I did get all the humanities right by doing it second (my order was: comp, humanities, law, science) but I feel like I sacrificed science points to get more humanities points.

I do think that having some strategy about the order in which I do passages could help and I'm curious if anyone has had similar thoughts/ experience could advise how it might be smarted to play around with this?

Thank you! Good luck studying!

I have been studying for months for the LSAT and took it in November, where I got a 143. Did not want to keep a score that low, so I am taking it again in January. I have been working with a tutor to help since November, and took a practice test today where I scored a 135. I don't know what I'm doing wrong or how I'm not improving

Hello everyone!

I'm taking my first LSAT Jan 10th and have been studying for months, but I can't get a grasp on timing.

When I PT without time, I average a very high score compared to when I PT with time.

I have always had test anxiety, which has gone away with being in uni. Unfortunately, with the LSAT, it seems to have come back.

My mind does not let me truly understand and read even the simplest of phrases, which has me get easy questions wrong, and run out of time on my RC.

Not sure what to do... has anyone had this issue, and what did you do??

Thanks!

hi! please see question above? ive been doing slow work-throughs of LR sections, reviewing the questions I get wrong thoroughly (or what i think is thorough--identifying why wrong ACs are wrong, why the rigjt one is right). ive started to incorporate time, yet i am still in the same place of usually getting -3 to -4 wrong. i know it doesnt feel drastically different, yet i have been at this plateau for the past 3/4 months. I don't want to believe that I can't get better!! is there something I'm missing?

i've done some drills based on identified weaknesses (strengthen/weaken/NA). but i don't feel as though there are types that I can identify as consistently missed.

For sufficient assumption questions I am a bit confused of whether or not we are allowed to use the contrapositives of the argument for the answer. For example if we have

A

B

the link we need to make is A->B but if one of the answers are /B->/A would that be the right answer choice?

I've been studying consistently for around 3 to 4 months now, primarily using the paid subscription to LawHub, and am just now starting to use 7Sage. When I have unlimited time taking shorter drills of around 12-14 questions, I am able to get 80-90%, if not all, questions correct. But if I do multiple drills in a row or take a full timed practice test, I find myself running out of stamina after only two sections or so.

Any tips on how to build the mental strength/stamina needed to stay focused and keep going with such a lengthy, draining test? I'm sure just biting the bullet and taking full practice tests more often would help, but I'm wondering if there are any other ways people have found to help train their brain for taking this kind of exam.

So I've taken the LSAT once before, and the law school I applied to made a no decision on my application, saying everything looks good, I should just bump my LSAT up a few points. I haven't done anything LSAT-related since April 2025. Do I go through the whole study plan since I have such a short time, or do I just focus on drills and practice questions?

Hey, I am planning to take the test on Jan 10 (remotely). I did receive the email from LSAC regarding when the scheduling will be open for Jan dates. But I am still confused, since it is my first time. My question is, to schedule it for the date mentioned above, does the scheduling start 22 or 23?

Hi! I plan on taking the LSAT in June and I am currently a junior in college. Besides taking one practice test blind for my diagnostic I am not really sure where to start because I honestly know nothing about the LSAT. I am one week into my study plan but when or how often should I be taking practice tests. I have done some practice problems but I feel like I am still very early in my study plan that I do not quite know how to attack the questions since I am still in the foundation and core part of the study plan. Any advice would be helpful! Thank you! I just do not want to fall behind :)

Hi, all! I have been using 7Sage for almost 2 months now. I started by following the study plan, but was quickly overwhelmed by the schedule because I couldn't figure out how to edit it to be 6 days a week, and I quickly fell behind. To combat this, I decided to do the curriculum at my own pace, which is about 1 hour a day/ 5 or 6 days a week. This was working until I realized the curriculum included lessons not in my study plan. This leads me to question the benefits of following the curriculum vs. the study plan. Am I shooting myself in the foot by not following the study plan? If I want to be ready for the June 2026 LSAT, should I be spending more time studying? If I follow the curriculum, should I be doing practice tests in between the modules? Mainly, what is the difference between the curriculum and the study plan?

In the study plan, it is recommended to add a note for my wrong answer journal. Although I understand what I got wrong and why I got it wrong in my head, I'm not exactly sure how to summarize the note. Can anyone share how you add your own note for wrong answers?

Any tips for mastering level 4-5 difficulty questions?

I'm wondering what everyone does to warm up and get ready to study or take pratice tests. Any reccomendations would be helpful, thanks!

When I read the question stem, stimuli and organize information in my head and paper and look through the answer choices, at least 1:20 minutes has passed and it ultimately takes about 2 minutes to pick the answer. What are some tips I can get quick?

Hey y'all, I've been studying with 7Sage for a while and was wondering if anyone's run into a problem with running out of material to use and how you've gone about practicing in that context. I'm not sure if my analytics are publicly visible but if anyone's able to check, it might clear up the problem I'm facing.

From a combination of doing full length PTs as well as timed sections, I've now used up 23 full practice tests out of the 59 ones available. But of the ones remaining, I've used quite a decent chunk of them for drills, so none of them are 100% fresh. The freshest I've found are around 80% fresh, but most are only 50-70% fresh, with a few sub-50%.

Given this, I've kind of hit a cross-roads with what PTs and even timed sections I can do. I worry that if I take any of these remaining tests as full PTs or even just as individual timed sections, there's a good chance I will have already seen and done numerous questions on the test, and therefore my scores won't actually be reflective of my true performance on an actual PT.

I see 3 options, each with their own pros and cons.

1. I bite the bullet and just use these tests as full PTs or sections, regardless of how fresh they are. While there are going to be questions I've seen and therefore I might have a slightly inflated score as to how I'm doing, at least the questions will be representative of the modern LSAT and I'm sure there's still great value in doing the questions I haven't seen in the setting of a timed PT specifically.

2. There are a set of older bonus PTs (PTs 7-18, A, 21, 23, and F97?) that the PrepTest pool settings have specifically disabled that I could use. On the one hand, there's obviously no problem of having seen these questions before because I haven't even touched them. But the reason these tests are disabled is because 7Sage says they're not necessarily representative of the modern LSAT. 1 huge gap is that there aren't any comparative passages on RC and lord knows I could practice those. I might also be wrong about this, but I don't think there are explanations for these questions, which might make review tougher.

3. I ignore PTs and sections entirely. There are still plenty of modern LSAT questions in the settings I have that I haven't touched, and I can still drill these by making Frankenstein LR or RC sections if needed. Of course, these drills won't be structured like the way an actual section of a PT would be, where difficulty starts low generally and ramps up. These sections would have random difficulty interspersed throughout. This would also only be for individual sections, since I don't think the drilling tool lets you construct a whole PT's worth of questions. The individual questions would be fine to use, but I worry that I'd be losing practice in the context of the specific PT in the lead up to my January test.

Also not sure how important this is, but I did take PT 159 when it was first released by LSAC. No experimental, no explanations, but for all intents and purposes, I have done most of that test, even if it not necessarily on 7Sage.

Any insights on how to handle this? I'm probably overthinking things and maybe there isn't a huge difference among these options. There could also be some hybrid or totally out of the box options I haven't considered. Interested to know anyone's thoughts!

Why does 7sage mark the questions you got correct as something you need to blind review as if you got it wrong?

Hello! I wanted to reach out on here and see if someone might have a magical answer for me :) I have taken the official LSAT twice now, both times scoring a 135. I have never been a decent test-taker. I study by taking drilled practice section and practice exams, reviewing my wrong and correct answers along the way. However, seeming that I keep a consistent score it does not seem to be helping. Does anyone know how I should start improving my score big? My goal is a 155 and I am feeling so defeated. I signed up to re-take the LSAT in June, just in-time to apply for school. I am worried about getting the same score for the third time and then giving up. Please help!!

I am genuinely stuck getting half right. I don't get it, I don't know what going on. What did y'all do to improve on RC?

Hi everyone! Winter is here, finals are over, and I'm really feeling the lack of motivation. I find myself studying so much but not retaining a lot because I feel like I'm just dragging along. How many hours are you putting in daily? How many days off should I aim for? I feel like I'm constantly catching up.

I find myself between two answers frequently, and I know that is not ideal. When I get them right or wrong, I struggle to understand why. What is the best way to review your answers, understand exactly why an answer is right or wrong, and stay focused during this process?

Hi you guys, I am based in Austin, Texas and I am looking for a study buddy! Text me 512-761-8036 or dm me on instagram @Onyisellstxhomes!

Just started studying this week. Got a 143 on my diagnostic, and have been going over my study plan this week. I consider myself a reasonably intelligent person, but this is genuinely convincing me I am dumb. I have been doing very bad with reading comprehension with the timer and just in general getting a lot of questions wrong. Anyone else have a rough period when they started and does it get any easier?

Hi, I just started learning for the LSAT just a week ago and took a diagnostic test. I got a 147 which is a little discouraging, but I'm staying focused and motivated. I intend to score in the high 170s.

I noticed that my main problem was speed and comprehension. The pressure of the timer really gets to me and makes it harder to focus on what I'm reading. I've faced this problem in many tests in the past. I know I can up my base score to at least the low 150s just by fixing this timing problem and no additional LSAT prep.

All the words jumble together and stop meaning anything, then I panic about wasting time, lose my train of thought and the cycle begins again. In the end I completely missed 4-6 questions in each section alone just because of timing. I'm considering applying for accommodation when the time comes, but I want to plan for worst case scenario.

Here are the things I'm planning to do:

1. Timed drills every other day, with less time than on the official LSAT

2. I ask Chat GPT to generate boring, and difficult to read passages every day, then answer questions on them to increase my general reading compression skills. (I usually avoid AI so if anyone has recommendations that replace Chat GPT please let me know)

3. Start doing regular daily activities - like cooking breakfast, getting ready, etc. - with timers. My thought process is that If I get used to timing things in general it will eventually feel like less pressure?

That's all I've got. Does any one have any tips on how to work faster? And how to get rid of that timer/test anxiety?

Someone please tell me that I am not the only one that has a hard time staying focused while watching videos and learning the LSAT materials? some days its like i am motivated to study and then others and especially if i just took a practice test that week my brain can not stay engaged.

If anyone has any advice that would be great

I register for the January test in California specifically SoCal area. Im sorry but scheduling was awful, my nearest test center is 50 miles away compared to the first time which was only 10 miles. Now I have to travel 50 miles and take a test at 7:30 am.
