Hi,

I am signed up for the April LSAT and I only have 7 fresh RC sections and 12 LR sections left. Should I take a break for a few weeks and consolidate those sections into the month before my exam? Should I try another LSAT prep program? Should I invest in a tutor? Since I am going on vacation for 9 days in early March, should I just postpone my first exam to June? I have been testing at low 160s but I feel like I am about to break into mid 160s based on relearning the fundamentals, but I'm just not sure what to do. I am fully committed to applying for the Fall 2027 cycle. Seeking guidance.

I started studying about 3 months ago and began with a 153 diagnostic (post-core curriculum). After two weeks of drilling, I worked my score up to 160. Then, I scored a 159. After that plateau, I read Ellen Caddiy's the Loophole and went over the fundamentals of LR while also going through the fundamentals of RC again. After 1 month of that, I scored a 157. I think it might be because I was largely practicing untimed drills during that time of re-learning the fundamentals. Now, I have been consistently doing timed sections for over a week and still I am testing at 159, unable to improve. Not sure what to do at this point. Is it worth paying for a tutor? I am scheduled to take the test in April.

Anyone else absolutely butcher this section? I have been practicing recently at -4 for LR and got -10 on this. Also, there were two questions that stood out to me as so difficult that seemed just straight-up wrong. Like there was not a single correct answer choice.

Like Q25

After watching the explanation, I don't really get why C works. We are supposed to assume that large body = less of a target by predator. But that's not stated in the answer. If anything, you could make the opposite assumption that making the body larger makes them more of a target.

And Q21:

Doesn't really make sense. I guess C is supposed to introduce an alternative expl - that the students did better because they studied hard. That's what is stated in the explanation video. But that requires an additional assumption beyond what is stated in the answer choice. There is nothing suggesting that "choosing" to join an academically competitive team post study implies that those students were more motivated to do well in school. Motive does not equal action.

Can you Ctrl+F search for words and phrases on actual LSAT test through LawHub?

By far my biggest weakness on this test is conditional and causal reasoning. I've struggled to find free videos on Youtube that offer good lectures on these topics. I liked the 7sage Fundamentals lessons, but I'd like to try something else first to re-learn the theory for excelling at these topics. Anyone have suggestions for free video content online that explains this stuff really well?

Hello everyone,

I am wondering if the appearance of 7sage's LSAT RC and LR sections online identically resemble and map onto the appearance of those sections on the test. In other words, when taking the actual exam at a testing site, can you highlight text in RC and LR sections in multiple colors like we can do on 7sage? Also, on the real test for RC, can you re-read the RC passage on the same screen as the questions like in 7sage or do you have to click back to a different page to re-read the RC passage if that makes sense?

If there are in fact differences, what do you recommend I implement into my studying to account for the differences between how the test presents on 7sage vs. the actual exam?
