Thanks for letting me know. I figured the quality was not as good as a lot of sources.

The LSAT and Motivation

Hey everyone, I was just wondering what you guys did to stay motivated to study for the LSAT, particularly 170+ scorers. I’ve really been having trouble staying on task. I’m just looking to see what other people did to stay focused. Thanks!

Two LSAT cancellations

Hello everyone. I was just wondering if I need to write an addendum because I cancelled my LSAT the first two times. I obviously plan on taking the LSAT again, and I do not plan on cancelling this time around. Also, are two cancellations going to look bad for me in the application process? My top choice is UVA, and I know I have a long way to go to achieve an acceptable score for the school, but I was just wondering if this would come back to haunt me, especially for a t-14 school. Thank you!

Thank you. I actually meant to say that it would be nice to have lifetime access as an additional option instead of as a replacement for the existing plans. Just wanted to clarify! :smiley:

Thank you for your words of encouragement, everyone! I know that I can get where I want to be if I put in the effort. Just need to be a bit less rigid in my thinking, I guess.

Lifetime Access to Course Content

Has 7sage ever considered a flat fee that would provide users permanent access to all the course material/practice tests instead of a monthly fee to access the material? I know that some other sites provide permanent access to the material if you pay the fee.

Also, I would appreciate it if some fellow Penn Staters on here would be willing to comment. Thank you!

Am I Just Deluding Myself?

I really want to go to UVA; however, my GPA is way low (3.28) cumulative. Additionally, I have canceled my LSAT score twice. Whenever I was able to view my score before deciding if I wanted to keep it or not, I scored a pathetic 139.

Am I deluding myself in even thinking this is a possibility? It's pretty much UVA or bust for me. I have done enough research to know that for me UVA is by far the best law school in the country for me personally. It literally checks all the boxes.

I'm just looking for some input on this whole issue. What percentage of LSAT students raise their scores by 30+ points? How realistic of a possibility is it? Is it worth the mental and emotional energy to even pursue?

I have so much internal conflict in my mind about what direction I want to go in. Although I am essentially dead set on UVA, in theory I suppose I could attend Penn State University Park's law school, as I am a Penn State alumni and would be eligible for $20,000 a year, minimum; however, big law prospects would essentially be nonexistent from this school. (I would want to pursue a career in international law).

Because of my autism, I have a tendency to get obsessed with the idea of attending law school; however, to this point how that has manifested in studying is that I have been far too scattered in my approach. I am going to post a poll to see what others think about the direction I should go in. That's it for now. Thanks to everyone who read this post.

On Not Giving Up

I was considering going for my PhD in Philosophy and giving up on the LSAT; however, I recognized how important going to law school was to me so I decided to continue the pursuit of my dreams. So far, I have two cancellations on file. I know based on what I've been reading on here, though, that there are people who have made incredible improvements in their scores, so I know that if I put in the effort I can do it, too. To anyone else who is thinking of giving up: don't. You can do this, you can get the score that you want; it will just take some time. Never give up! You can do it! To quote Rise Against, my favorite band, "The walls that all surround you are only in your mind." Always remember this. Sometimes we can be our own worst enemies. Have confidence in your abilities and keep on fighting!

Law School LORs Question

I know this is well in advance of the time; however, I was just wondering if I could in theory submit a letter of recommendation for an application for admission for the Fall 2025 semester right now and have the letter dated for that time. Thanks!

How Do I Bundle 7Sage Account With Prep Plus

Hello,

I want to re-buy the yearly 7sage course; however, it says that my account is not bundled with Prep Plus through my LSAC account. I'm wondering how I bundle with Prep Plus so that I can have access to all the materials. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

7Sage Course Expiration Question

Hey everyone, my course just expired. With this in mind, I have a few questions regarding an expired course. The first question is, do I still have access to the course materials/videos other than the prep tests. Does access to the course materials ever expire? Additionally, I would like to know if I need to buy Prep Plus to access the practice tests again. Or, alternatively, do I need to buy the course over again to have access to all the materials. Please answer if you can. Thank you!

Advice on Focus

Hello everyone. In 2014, I graduated with degrees in Philosophy and Political Science, respectively. The following year, in 2015, I was diagnosed with high-functioning autism. This diagnosis helped explain some of the problems I encountered while I was an undergrad. Now, I have been really struggling with focus as it applies to studying for the LSAT, primarily due to my high-functioning autism. Any advice would be greatly appreciated, as well as what strategies have helped you to focus better. Thanks!

Thanks for the advice. I have often thought that I would benefit greatly from extended time. I most definitely struggle with the issues that you mentioned.

Autism Diagnosis

Perhaps this question has already been asked; however, I just wanted to see what people have to say about it. I am autistic; I was diagnosed shortly after my graduation. I have been interested in the career of Haley Moss, an autistic attorney from Florida. Anyway, I'm just wondering if my autism diagnosis has the potential to give me a boost in law admissions, especially to the t-14?

I would also like to point out that I am a non-traditional white male applicant, who graduated in 2014. I'm essentially wondering if I can use this in a diversity statement or not. Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

LSAT For Dummies Accuracy

My highest score I have ever gotten from a practice test was a 152. It was from The LSAT For Dummies second edition. I'm pretty sure it was not an official test, however. How accurate can I assume the test was if this was not the case? Just wondering, because I would like to know if this accurate reflects my ability or if I should just disregard it because it's not an official test.

Are you sure?
