Hi,

From January to March 2019 I studied using 7sage and ended up with a 169 on the March 2019 LSAT (which was a huge improvement over my Sept 2018 score of 157). I am extremely happy with my score, but decided to retake in July.

I have not studied in a month and a half, so these next two months I want to be as effective as possible. As of now I am planning to do roughly a practice test a week, followed by blind review, as well as fool proofing for logic games.

Any advice on how I can achieve this last bit of progress?

Also, how helpful is filming your prep test?

Thank you

For LR, I'm officially scoring what I did before starting 7sage in January.

I began 7sage in january and made massive improvements in LR after the core curriculum. From Prep-test 36 through 38, I was getting just one to three wrong a section. On PT 36, however, my BR score (166) was only two points higher than my actual score (164), so I began to blind review in much more detail in nuance, revisiting parts of the core curriculum, and referring to the analytics tab on 7sage to help focus my studies.

However, I noticed that I was becoming more hesitant and more willing to circle questions, and the answers I gave to circled questions were more frequently wrong. I use to end each LR section with over 5 minutes to spare and around six questions circles, one or two of which would be corrected (my best overall performance was on Preptest 38, I scored a 166, with a 174 BR).By Preptest 40, I can barely finish an LR section, circle 8-12 questions, and end up correcting most of them.

I think this is best demonstrated in two timed drills I took from PT 73.

On section 2 in late February, I got four wrong initially, had circled 4, and corrected two.

On Section 4, which I took today, I got eleven wrong (many of which were not circled), and circled 12.

Does anyone have any other LR review methods besides Blind Reviewing?

I'm taking the March test and need advice. I thought I was in good shape when I stopped the core curriculum and truly believed the 7sage method, but now I feel like I wasted this time I took off to study for the LSAT (sorry for the mini rant).

Hi, I'm taking the March 30th test and have hit a plateau after finishing the core curriculum a few weeks ago. Before the core curriculum my diagnostic was a 156 which matched my real LSAT score of 157 from September 2018. I've been in the low to mid-160s since finishing the core curriculum, with little evidence of improvement. Ideally, I want to break 170, but scoring above 165 is my definite target. I'm looking for advice that anyone may have on making improvements in the home stretch. (I trust in the 7sage process and part of that process is in discussing on forum).

Here's some more details about my study regiment and performance:

I have stepped up on fool proofing for LG, been thoroughly blind reviewing tests in my lsat journal, spending time explaining each answer choice, and have been doing drills.

With three weeks out, I've noticed I have had no actual improvement with RC since the end of the curriculum (I get 5 or 6 wrong on each RC section before BR) and no actual improvement on LGs since I began 7sage in January (I almost always have 6 wrong before BR). My LRs, range more dramatically (even after blind review), getting 1 wrong on one section of one test and 7 on another. I feel as though the more thoroughly I blind review, the less confident and worse score I get on the following test.

36 Score: 164, BR: 166

37 Score: 164, BR: 170

38 Score: 166, BR: 174

39 Score: 162, BR: 170

I'm fairly happy with the improvement I've made, but am worried that my overall average of 163-4 would be reduced on test day to a 160 or below, leaving me basically where I was in September of 2018.

Any advice for me?
