Ok , I am just starting this journey. I have 2 lsat books and then I found this site and will be soon signing up for the course. However, I wanted to ask if I should spring for the bibles or if that would be a waste of money since I will be taking this course.
I agree that the Bibles are good, but the question at hand is if someone who paid for the 7Sage course should spend more money on the Bibles. That's where it becomes really iffy, and I wouldn't recommend it unless a couple hundred dollars here or there makes no difference to you.
I've said repeatedly that had I known about 7Sage before I spent well over $1000 on other prep materials, I would have certainly just bought the Ultimate + of 7Sage and nothing else.
Exactly this. Right now I don't have the money to keep buying material if I really don't need it. I am finishing my MBA, and we pay out of pocket for it as my GI bill ran out after my bachelor's degree. On top of that, I have two small children and we are currently on one income. I do have the ultimate package from 7sage, and I'm giving myself a full year to do it prior to testing.

Another word of advice: you can always order more study materials if you need them! You're only at the start of your LSAT journey, and you don't know where your biggest weaknesses will be two months from now. You are allowed to start studying before you've purchased all of your LSAT materials :) I've made three waves of Amazon orders over my prep time. Just start!!
If you don't have non-mechanical pencils, get those soon so you're doing the PTs or timed sections with wooden pencils like you'll use on test day.
Oh that's good advice, I never thought of that. I am going to take the first pt untimed, just to get a baseline. I am almost through the material up to the point of taking the first practice test, it is all printed out and my poor printer is begging for more ink lol. I will get some regular number two pencils. I haven't had those in a dog's age.
I see it now ! Thank you for your response, I really appreciate it :)
I was wondering if I should take a practice test now before the completion of the 7sage to get a baseline. I have taken shorter versions and I know that according to them I will have a fairly decent score, but I haven't taken a full practice test. Is that what I should do, or should I instead focus on the cc, test, and use that as a baseline ?
Thank you, I will note that about the lsat trainer. I actually have seen a few of his youtube videos and he seems very clear in his presentation, so if I feel that I need more than 7sage I will order it. Hopefully find it used to save a little money.
Thank you, I appreciate the feedback. I'm trying to navigate this one day at a time and not become overwhelmed before I have a reason to.
Thank you ! I just didn't want to spend over $100 and then end up not using them.
