I was in the same boat as you before with the -14 so I understanding how frustrating it can be — but don't give up! A huge thing that's been helping me with timing is confidence drills. Essentially, when you go through passages under timed conditions, don't look back in the passage for reference and pick the answer you think is correct and move on. Then in BR take all the time you need to refer to text and find actual answer, debate AC's, etc. This helped me as I was often going back to the passage to verify each AC to be correct, or just was stuck between two answer choices, simply because I didn't have the "confidence" that I knew all I needed to know for the AC's. This may seem like an obvious drill to do, but I really think (at least for me) getting hung up on AC's and questions drains so much time and takes time away from doing the next passage. By forcing yourself to go with your gut, you're building your confidence that you know what you're doing and it creates a more "smooth sailing" timed section in which you can complete all the passages in time. Hope this helps!
This isn't related to 7Sage, but I learned and perfected logic games originally with Lsat Demon (another lsat prep platform) and I think they explain it better (at least for me) than 7Sage does. If you search on Youtube for "in out games lsat demon," you'll see a short clip from their podcast where they talk in more simpler terms of exactly what an in/out game is asking for with a real-life example. That video helped things click for me/ put in real-life perspective what in/out games really are. I hope that helps!
