Hi everyone! I had started studying for the LSAT in August but not that seriously because the school semester had begun. I finally have a schedule that will allow me to study seriously for the LSAT. So I know some basics but that's about it. Any suggestions on where to start? I'm feeling a bit overwhelmed at the moment trying to decide which prep course or books I should buy since they are all so expensive. If 7sage is worth it, I might enroll in it. What are your suggestions? Should I be buying other books or enrolling in other prep courses with 7sage? I've heard mixed reviews about Powerscore and some people have mentioned Loophole and LSAT Trainer. Any thoughts on where I should start would really help. Thank you!

I'm in the same boat as you and I decided to postpone. I think the practice tests indicate how you're likely to do on the LSAT and if you're not happy with your score and you think you can go higher, do what you gotta do to get that score. I defiantly think you can take the LSAT in June and start on applications around that time, but it all comes back to how much higher you think you can go. If you think the extra couple of months will help, take them. If you think you'll still be within the same range, then maybe think about whether a few extra months would actually help.
Of course, this is just my suggestion and what I'll personally be doing. Do what you think is best for you. Good luck!
this is awesome, thanks!
Hi, I would love the link to your quizlet! Also, thank you for sharing your experience with 7sage and Loophole. Do you think starting off with 7sage was the right decision for you or do you think you should've started doff with the Loophole first? Trying to decide where I should start!
I do not understand this question at all.

Interested!!
Also worried about this as well! Both for the application cycle and job opportunities after law school graduation with the surge in applicants this year and last year. I believe around 2010-2013 the surge in people who went to law school became so great that there were more people than jobs. I had spoken to several law schools last year in regards to scholarships I had heard about from lawyers in the family and most told me that they had stopped giving those scholarships, and only had them in the first place to incentivize people to apply to their schools at the time since people had heard about the no jobs for people with JD's and applications to law schools started to decline.
You might've already heard this before, but one recommendation I have is to read articles from websites like The Economist, The NY Times, etc. that can also help improve your language and grammar. I was an ESL tutor for several years and that's always something I've recommended. The quicker you're able to read and understand what is said, the more likely you'll be able to do the same on the LSAT. Good luck!
