7sage isn't even consistent with itself. If you use the Flex Score converter (https://classic.7sage.com/lsat-flex-score-converter/) and input your PrepTest results from the results page, you'll sometimes get a different scaled score for the same raw score.
As in, the Converter and the Results page will give you a different scaled score for the same raw score.

I'm pretty sure they changed it. I also saw Sept. 30th for a while, it started showing Sept. 23 a few weeks ago. The whole registration process is terrible. The website is incredibly hard to navigate and none of the information is really presented clearly.
You'd think that for such a large and important organization, they'd really have this stuff figured out by now.

They take down the option to purchase it during the testing days and it goes back up the day after the last test is done.

Not advice for focus, but you should look into applying for accommodations. You can get approval for extra time if you make a successful case that you need the extra time to write the test with the same difficulty as an "ordinary" writer.

It really doesn't help that much. The questions don't use the exact same wording as the text so you can only seldom ctrl+f anything important. Also, on the Flex they highlight an excerpt for you if the question is asking about it.

I'm in the same boat, working 40+ hours a week and studying after work + on weekends. I'd honestly recommend the 7Sage Admissions Course. It's like $10 and totally worth the money from what I've heard/experienced so far.
Does this course focus on US schools only or does it cover Canadian law schools as well? Thanks 🙏🏼
I'm fairly sure it's just US schools. I don't know for sure but I briefly looked at it until I saw a comment from JY I think saying its only US schools responding to this exact question.
Also in Canada. lawapplicants.ca is pretty good to help with Canadian schools. It's free and helps break down the application for each school.

Hard to tell. Go ahead and check LSData if you'd like some idea. There doesn't seem to be many admits with that combination.

Took some time to break this down in detail.
So you're looking for the option that presents the biggest problem for the argument.
Let's start by reconstructing the argument.
The advocate starts by outlining the context in which the argument takes place. "Some agricultural crops are now being genetically engineered to produce important pharmactuicals." Next, she says "This development raises the possibility that the drugs will end up in the general food supply."
This second sentence is clearly the main conclusion of the argument. The advocate is saying that some crops are being genetically engineered, and this genetic engineering results in some thing (the increased possibility of the drugs ending up in the general food supply). \
So, why does genetic engineering of crops to produce pharmactuicals raise the possibility of the drugs ending up in the general food supply?
""Since, if pollen from a drug-producing crop drifts into a nearby field in which an ordinary, non-drug-producing crop of the same species is being grown, the pollen could fertilize that crop and turn it into a drug producing crop as well""
So that's the main argument in favour of the conclusion.
"If pollen from a drug-producing crop drifts into a nearby field in which an ordinary, non-drug-producing crop of the same species is being grown" then "the pollen could fertilize that crop and turn it into a drug producing crop as well"
So, to summarize the argument, the advocate is saying something close to:
"Some crops are being genetically engineered to make drugs. The genetic engineering of these crops raises the chance that the drug will end up in the general food supply. This is because drifting pollen from drug-producing crops could turn an ordinary crop into a drug producing crop"
Notice that there's a sort of implicit jump that the advocate makes. Her argument does not prove that the drug will end up in the general food supply. Even if we accept all her premises, all her argument shows is that pollen from the drug-producing crop can turn ordinary crops into drug-producing crops. But why does that mean the drug will end up in the general food supply?
To be clear more:
Premise: Crops are being genetically engineered to make drugs
Premise: Drifting pollen from drug-producing crops could turn an ordinary crop into a drug producing crop
Conclusion: This raises the possibility that the drugs will end up in the general food supply.
It's not clear how it raises the possibility. She is assuming that if ordinary crops are turned into drug producing crops, then the drug is more likely to make its way into the general food supply. But this premise isn't stated. Its a logical jump she makes. So the best way to weaken her argument is to focus on this jump.
Option D does that. Imagine some ordinary plant that is in a field next to drug-producing plants. Pollen flies over, and fertilizes the plant. The ordinary plant becomes a drug producing plant. How does this drug now end up in the general food supply? Well it only can if the parts of that plant that have the drug in it are introduced to the food supply. If none of the parts that contain the drug get used for the food supply, the drug itself cannot be introduced to the food supply.

On the 7sage PrepTest function, click the clock at the top and click +50% time.

Yes, tear out 5 regular sized pages and limit yourself to that. You should be fine to use an external USB mouse. Call LSAC if you want to confirm but AFAIK people have used them in the past.
I like 7sage's testing platform better than LawHub. I'm practicing on 7sage with flex mode on (and occasionally full tests). I just did one/two tests on LawHub to get a feel for the real platform. I'll do one more before my test so I'm sure I'm comfortable on it.
Keep in mind theres no "best" way to do any of this. It's all personal preference.
Are you asking about the consulting or the course?
The course is $10. The consulting is $3k (and sold out I think).
