Wondering if anyone know how long it generally takes for spots to open up in the Admissions course? It looks like all of them have been sold out. Fault's on me for being a late-bird :(
Edit: Already sent an e-mail to reserve a spot
Wondering if anyone knows what date the September LSAT is open for registration? I have it down as May but just looking for reassurance/confirmation, etc...
Wondering how you guys structure your studying periods while studying full-time?
i.e. Week 1: RC, Week 2: LR, etc. etc.
How do you decide what skills to work on beforehand/setting up study goals as opposed to just studying with the flow? This is also assuming that most of the CC is reviewed and you're moving on towards doing timed sections itself, etc.
In short, how do y'all generally plan for the study week? (if at all)
Interested but won't be in nyc the 1st. May I show up for the following week or does it become waitlist basis?
10 got me. From my POV reading the intro, "the last 20 years or so" was 1997-2017. That said, there was a big gap from 1970 to 1997, which I thought the passage wasn't addressing - throwing me off.
But the question was also non-specific into the amount of time after 1970. Could be 10 years, could be 100. In hindsight, should've focused more on that side of the question as opposed to looking for the missing 20 years.
Does make sense when you see that this LSAT was administered in '98, which is "20 years or so" from 1970.
Whoooo! Definitely feel you @-2. Just got my first 170 on PT 63 this week after dipping down to low 160's - PT 62 - this past week. Best feeling. Let's get ittttttt
For those who quit their FT jobs to study...
What are your plans for after you take the test? Since there's about less than a year (+,-, depending no when you take the test) between application and potential enrollment, what kind of "work" will you guys be doing? I've read (not sure if this is confirmed) that law school admissions might ask you to explain a 6month gap in your resumes.
Hi,I'm interested in this group as well. Would appreciate being tagged for future movement with this. Availability extremely flexible I'm EST.
Also, if anyone is interested in getting something started this week or next, I should be starting pt's soon. (I studied before last summer and took a break currently have PT 49-51 AND 62 TO current.
Hey Branigan, just joined 7Sage. I started off in August with about a blind diagnostic, 152. Currently scoring around the 165's (Test 61) and topped at 167, BR 169 (Test 48). I'd say it's definitely doable! Just keep at it mate.
My method before joining 7Sage - decided to cave and grab the Ultimate+ and try to score 170+'s - was primarily doing 1 or 2 exams + experimental/week and just review.

Anybody here have a picture of when they were noticeably younger on their ID verification? (Drivers License, Passport, etc). Wondering how strict they might be with this?
FYI: LSAT Registration has opened!
The LSAT PowerBible also did a similar breakdown of all of the AC's in all of the previous LSATS. (D) happened to be the most common AC of all the others - given the frequency is only up by like .5% or something :)
Would you mind elaborating on this a bit?
So I went to an early-college HS where you graduate with both your HS diploma and an Associate's degree... wasn't the best student in HS and received mediocre grades for my Associates. (Talking like 2.0 GPA's). Graduated college last year with a transcript full of 3.7's and up (save for a bad first semester). Will my Ass. transcript bring down overall GPA?
@ Hey, wondering what your approach was to BC if at all? (demonstrating interest, talking to them at LSAC forums, etc)
Yes, it does! Thank you very much :)
So I already have two LOR's from professors I've worked closely with during my time as an undergraduate. However, after graduating, I worked for a NYS Assemblywoman for about a year and a half who also wrote me a LOR. Was wondering what people's opinions are in terms of providing this third LOR of just leaving it at my two.
I know that some schools only require two. I've also seen some that allow up to four...
@ said:
Has anyone tried the gum method? I know there's been studies done that say if you chew a certain flavor gum while studying and then again while taking the test, your brain has an easier time recalling information. Would it be plausible to chew say a stick of spearmint before entering the testing center and then again during the break?
I also def see the merits of trail mix with m&ms or something chocolatey! Salty, sweet, with a burst of caffeine to keep ya going.
I've actually done this for a bit while I was taking PTs! Wanted to do some associative training to get myself cognitively "primed", so to speak, for test days, etc. What I noticed, though, was that most times I wouldn't even be chewing my gum because I was too focused on the task at hand or I was chewing my gum and couldn't focus on the task at hand.
It definitely helps with nerves while you begin and during the break I would say (perhaps as an alternative to chewing through and through)
@ Wow that's definitely a lot more regimented than mine! What I used to do was just set out 3-5 sections/day and do them timed then BR and reviews. I admire how you incorporate your mental/physical health into your regiment as well.
Would you mind, if it's not too much trouble, explaining these stages of studying? You're saying that Stage 1 is you being able to BR in the 175's... I'm assuming this means more of your focus is on the BR.. when would you delve into Stage 2 of your studying, what might that entail, etc.? Also, what do you mean when you say "intensives" for RC?
Wondering, also, how people are rationing out their PT's as your test days are coming up. I decided not to take the June LSAT but I also only have about 23 or so PT's left... Thinking of taking a break for the month of April then starting back up in May doing 1/week 2/week, etc. until September.. any advice on how I should be studying in that meantime? When I was planning to study for the June, I was doing up to 2 PT's/week with BR...
Also, last PT was 165 w/ RC -4, LG -4, LR -4, LR -6...
