Hey guys first post wanted to share my progress. Took my first official April 2025 in an heap of panic, little prep and got a 148.. over the last year and a half, learned about LSAT, study strats and figured out what the goals really were.
Switched to 7Sage a year ago and after trying to study for LSAT while doing a Masters degree, got a 154 on Jan 2026 LSAT..
Graduated locked in these last 4 months, put in about 500 hours since June and had a 162 PT yesterday (169 BR) with quite of few easy mistakes I felt like I should've got better..
I test in Nov and I'm excited to see the results of my hard work!
The goal is 165!
Congratulations, that is huge. I'm looking at making the same improvement ideally. I think its important to celebrate, regardless if its not the typical post we see. Happy the hard work paid off.
I do know Windsor has 155ish median LSAT, and with your GPA wouldn't be an issue. Western with your GPA and a 160, should be competitive. I’m basing both on knowing people personally at each school and my buddy at Western OLSAS GPA is noticeably less. My OLSAS GPA is substantially less and I’m banking on 165+ LSAT to be sufficient for each... may not be enough for Western on my end. If the goal is York, Queens, Ottawa, Carleton, I would think at least 165+ to be competitive, maybe a bit less for Ottawa but again Canadian schools are more wholistic so a good personal Statement and story would mean alot... UoT I would bank on high 160s at minimum.. 168,169 on the low end but would expect 170s to be competitive... not sure if its attainable with what your testing at... again, if you worry about getting in, 160 will most likely get you in with your GPA somewhere with a good personal statement + extracurriculars if you apply across the board, do every school and wish for the best. Outside of Ontario , Dal, Alberta, Calgary, Manitoba should be competitive at 165.
So I was in the same boat, I also test in Nov and this is what I've been doing the last few weeks for quick gains..
For reference: 148 Official , followed by 154, now 162 PT yesterday...
go to analytics, see what question types you're struggling on, those are the one you'll need to get better on.
go to the Fast track videos, go through the example videos with Kevin, do the questions live right before be breaks down the answers/approach in front of you.
Once you're getting it, practice by that question type, start with easy level 1,2, ensure you understand what you're doing and getting the easy ones right.
After mastered 1-2 (90+ accuracy ), start mixing in some 3-4s, so like 2-4 range difficulty, do the same. until you can do the same with 5s.
ANSWER JOURNAL WRONG ANSWERS. the ones you get wrong, use the wrong answer template, explain by trying out why you got tricked or got it wrong, be specific (didnt understand X phrase, I thought X flaw in my approach etc.. )
make sure to mix in other question types so youre able to identify and know regardless of what youre doing before...
Go back few days later reattempt ones you got wrong, see if anything changes in the outcome/ approach to the question..
Stay motivated. All it takes is some thought behind the approach, working without thinking about how it gets done can easily demotivate you when you spend hours and don't see gains..
I hope you can try it out and it helps, best of luck!
