other than blind reviewing do you do a WAJ? what do your analytics say? do you have question types you tend to get wrong more often? is it 4-5 level questions you seem to be struggling with?
Hi!
I am not entirely sure what you’ve been doing already but I recommend blind reviewing and WAJ.
Blind review helps you differentiate if you’re getting a question wrong because of timing or if you don’t understand the question type and how to solve it. From that you can see if you need to practice timing more or review the question type and how to break it down into its parts to solve it.
WAJ I honestly hated doing at first because it was tedious but if you use the template 7sage provides, it helps you analyze (1) why the answer you picked is wrong, (2) why you missed/eliminated the right answer, (3) deciding an action item to prevent future mistakes or improve your strategy to approaching similar questions.
I also like taking advantage of the priorities analytics 7sage provides. By seeing which questions i’m struggling the most with, I can effectively prioritize my time to my weaker areas. Based on my priorities, I can review the lessons from the core curriculum, do questions specific drills, or attend a live class.
This is what’s been working for me but everyone’s different!
Hi! I only started studying this year but that happened to me, too. Before I started 7sage, I took the 101 practice test on LawHub and scored much higher then the practice tests I am taking now (120-130 range). The test definitely changes over time so it kinda makes sense.
Have you been doing a WAJ and looking into your analytics for the tests? Identifying if maybe there's a type of question or section that's causing you to lose more points could probably mitigate your score lowering like that on future practice tests.
Look at the schools you want to apply to and check when their deadlines are. Most, if not all schools, are rolling admission meaning that schools fill up spots throughout the application period. I think a lot of schools close their applications in February (I haven't looked recently so I could be wrong). This also means that applying after you take the November test means you'll be applying for a smaller pool of spots available in most schools since a lot of schools would have already accepted quite a few students by now.
You would have to weigh what you think is best depending on your score and application material. If you do want to apply for the Fall 2026 cycle, I would recommend making sure your personal statement, letters of recommendation, and other application documents are already prepped. It would give you time from November-February to prepare for interviews or secondary essays some schools might request.
It really comes down to the timelines for the schools you plan to apply to. Personally, I can't afford to to be generous with application fees so I would want to wait for the next cycle and apply earlier to give myself a better chance instead of applying late into the application cycle, paying a bunch of application fees, and risk not getting admitted into any schools I apply to.
Hi!
I am studying for the January 2026 test and was wondering if anyone wanted to start a study group. I work full-time but go to the library or study at home after work and on weekends.
I am down to do practice sections together or even just be an accountability buddy to study next to.
I am open to both virtual and in-person!
Hi! I am also studying for the January 2026 test. I'm available in the evenings and weekends.
Hi! i am taking the January LSAT and would like to join
Hi! I am in the midwest and down to join your study group
