See who's getting accepted and rejected from law schools in real time with our improved wave tracker: https://7sage.com/admissions/decisions-tracker/wave-tracker
If you're applying this cycle, we encourage you to track your applications and enter your decisions! Start here: https://7sage.com/admissions/my-applications
@Jessievitarelli @Glocke you can set your timing accommodations in the preferences menu. It will adjust the timing for your study scheduler drills. Go here: https://7sage.com/users/settings/preferences
@JJLLe I hear you. I've made another discussion forum post to ask other people what they think: https://7sage.com/discussion/57855/should-study-schedule-drills-auto-start
Feel free to weigh in there as well.
When you click a drill in your study scheduler, do you need to be able to adjust the settings before you start?
EDIT: We heard you loud and clear. We've reverted this change!
We've built a new scholarship predictor to pair with our admissions predictor! The feature is still in beta, so tell us what you think in the comments.
If you've already received scholarship offers, I encourage you to add your results, link to your profile, and tell us how the scholarship predictor did. The more results we see, the more we can improve this feature.
Try the scholarship predictor now.
May you all get high scores and big scholarships!
Improving your score is all about consistency. Now it's easier to stay on track with Streaks! Log in each day to keep your momentum going.
Suggestions? Complaints? Drop a line in the comments. We're always trying to improve.
Now you can hop into a study room right from your chat:
No need to leave 7Sage for Discord or Zoom. Try it out and let us know if you like it!
Decisions are rolling in! Make sure you're logging them so you're eligible for the drawing in June.
@smcat @pamelajkok Any thoughts on how recalculate would work? E.g., should the schedule stay unchanged for everything up to the present day (the day you push "Recalculate") or should we only "keep" the stuff you've completed in the past? And what should we do about the the fact that you have less time to do complete all your work—push your study plan end date back or throw out lessons that seem less important?
I've heard from roughly everybody who has ever used the study scheduler that they want more customization—but how, and why? Start with the problem you are trying to solve—e.g., "I get behind schedule," or "I don't want to do the PT that the study scheduler picked for me because…" If possible, explain why the current functionality (e.g. changing your plan type or end date in study plan settings) doesn't cut it. Then suggest a solution.
Help us make it better for you!
We just released a new feature that shows how your chances of admission change at any given school with different LSAT scores. Check it out:
You can see your chances at BU here: https://7sage.com/admissions/schools/boston-university
Our smart drills always targeted the question types you need to work on most. Now they also adjust to your skill level as you take them.
You'll also see a new "Adaptive" option when you customize your drill. We use it by default.
(You can also find the "Smart Drill" button on your dashboard).
And please tell us what you think!
We're holding daily / nightly small-group sessions at
9 p.m. ET in "Study Room - 9pm ET" and
8 a.m. ET / 9 p.m. Seoul time in "Study Room - 9pm Seoul"
The sessions will be student-led—no 7Sage staff will be in the meeting. The suggested activity is group drilling.
Independent tutors are welcome to participate.
PSA: If you show up first, please stick around. Your fellow 7Sagers will join you.
Hey all, we're partnering with a cool new startup called Juno to try to make Law School more affordable. See below for a message from them.
----
If you’re planning to attend law school this fall and think you may need student loans, it may be worth joining the Juno Law School Loan Negotiation Group before May 1st.
Juno is a free platform that organizes students into large groups and negotiates with private lenders to secure lower interest rates. The idea is simple: when thousands of students come together, lenders compete to offer better terms.
Over the past 8 years, more than $1B in student loans have been negotiated through Juno, and thousands of graduate students, including law students, have used the platform to access discounted rates.
A few things to know:
Joining is free and takes about a minute to complete
There’s no obligation to take a loan
Rates are negotiated after the group closes, and members can compare offers before deciding
If Juno doesn’t beat the best rate you find elsewhere, they offer a Rate Match Program
Even if you’re still deciding how you’ll fund law school (federal loans, private loans, scholarships, etc.), joining the group simply gives you access to the negotiated rates once they’re finalized.
Join by May 1st to help negotiate the best rates possible!
If you want to learn more or join the group, use this link:
Juno also has some great financial education resources for law students at https://joinjuno.com/resources/law including my favorite, the JD Budget and Loan Planner.
If anyone has questions about how law school loans work or how the negotiation process works, feel free to ask below.
We just released a page that shows you which law schools schools are releasing decisions in real time!
If you're not already tracking your applications on 7Sage, you should! It's a great way to see where you are in the process compared to everyone else:
We're reviewing our curriculum, and I'd like to hear some candid feedback on 7Sage/s grammar lessons. Did you do them? Did you find them helpful? Did they improve your score?
@wylangao @superchillasian yes! We picked a winner randomly from the set of users who had been recently active. Next time we do something like this, we'll do the same, so you'll be entered as long as you're using the site.
@Danate I think it does for me. Can you take a picture or (better) a screen-capture video of what you're seeing?
We hear you loud and clear. We're rolling back the change as soon as we can.
