Is anyone else studying while working full-time? I've been studying and working full-time for the last year and it's been really tough. I work a really stressful job (social work) so motivating myself to study after work has been very difficult for me. For those who work full-time, what are your study schedules? And how do you motivate yourself to stay on schedule? Any and all advice is appreciated!

@ Thank you! This is very helpful. I have made sure to eat healthy and continue a workout schedule, though admittedly it's not as intense as I'd like. I think something that really works against me is that I am not a morning person at all - I've tried to wake up early and study before work in the past and it was a complete waste of time. I was literally falling asleep in front of my computer when I tried to do that. So I do all my studying after work, which is sometimes fine but sometimes I'm too exhausted. Also, you mentioned an RC textbook - what book are you using?
@ Thank you so much! This was honestly exactly what I needed to hear. I really appreciate your comment. Good luck on your LSAT journey!
I’ve been studying for about 1 year now and I’m scoring in the low- to mid-160s, but I’m still averaging around -6 on LG. It’s really frustrating because it seems so easy for other people to improve LG but I feel like I’ve plateaued. My LG was originally really bad, I’ve definitely improved from a year ago but still miss at least 5 questions per section. I’ve worked through all of the Logic Games videos and practice sets in 7Sage and now I just try to do random practice sets. I’m improving on my time management but I still seem to find myself running out of time at the end of the section. Any tips would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!
Those are like my exact hours! I’m interested!
I chose D for this question and 7sage scored it as correct - anyone else have this happen? I don't even know what to think
I started going through 7sage in November 2020, and I'm 37% of the way through the core curriculum. I didn't go in order (I started with logic games, then moved on to logical reasoning and reading comprehension), and did a lot of drilling that wasn't in the CC. I've probably taken longer on the CC than a lot of people, but I tried to tailor my studying to my needs, and it's paid off. I focused a lot on drilling and foolproofing. I'm not done with the CC but I'm happy with the improvements in my score so far.
I'm interested!
