If anyone is or knows a tutor who would be willing to help, it would be greatly appreciated. Any sort of pricing is fine with me, as I have saved up a reasonable amount in preparation for a moment such as this.

I have been studying LSAT in general for more than a year and a half now and at least feel that I have a sound understanding of how LG works, but I have become inconsistent in my daily studies. I have been trying to get to the point where I know I can tackle most logic games in time, and reliably only miss a maximum of 4-5 on each LG section I take, but that has not been the case thus far. Like I said, I feel I have a sound understanding of how games work, it just seems that whenever one is put in front of me, I don't deliver. I do understand that not being consistent enough is very detrimental in LG especially, but I have been trying to recover from a crazy semester and let my mind be at ease. With that being said, I am ready to get back at every day consistency and am looking to score in the high 150s to the low 160s, so mastering LG would be huge for that score. Any help or referrals are greatly appreciated and everyone have a great end of the year.

So I have been out of undergrad for less than a year, and I have been committing my life to the LSAT. I decided that I am going to try and get my LORs in line for when I apply, but the only issue is I was never close to any of my professors in undergrad, and I'm not confident they would write one for me. What am I supposed to do in this situation? I don't really have any mentors that could write one for me, attesting to my academic ability and work ethic, so am I just screwed?

I am just wondering if I should use the study schedule 7sage provides, or if I should keep going through the CC by section. I haven't been using the schedule at all, I've simply just gone through the lessons on the CC and am still on LR. I just recently looked on the study schedule and saw that it is wanting me to study LG and RC every week as well. I am pretty concerned if I have been studying wrong the entire time, since I haven't used the schedule at all and just have been going through the syllabus for LR so far.

Hey everyone, so ever since the quarantine my studying habits have fallen off quite a bit. I used to study for about 4 hours a day, but during the quarantine I have fallen off the wagon, sometimes not even studying at all some days. I can’t help but feel like I’ve forgotten everything I’ve learned so far in the CC, not to mention I had already used a different course prior to switching to 7sage and completed all of those lessons. Should I start completely over with the CC? I am nearly 100 hours in, but as mentioned previously, the last few things I’ve covered have been done inconsistently. Or should I just keep moving forward and trust that I remember everything that I’ve covered so far? I apologize in advance for such a dramatic post, I am just feeling like I’ve messed up big time for taking such a long break and am in desperate need of any advice on what to do moving forward.

Thank you all very much for any help.

Just probably overthinking, but I’m nervous my test will be flagged due to proctor issues. When will we find out if our test has to be reviewed by LSAC? I’ve seen some people say they found out within a few days, and others say that they didn’t know until score release day because they got an email saying their test was under review.

Hey all, so I am just concerned with my actual skill in LG. I just spent about 3 and a half months foolproofing every game I did within the first 35 PTs. Every game that I come back to review and have already FoolProofed, I ace it. Done in time, and every question right. I remember most of every inference, especially for more difficult games. The dilemma lies in the fact that when I arrive upon a NEW game that I have never seen before, I tend to struggle, a lot. This makes me feel as if my FoolProofing was for nothing - just because I can remember every inference that I have already seen, yet still cant make them on my own very well when I see new games. Really stressed and just want to start PTing, as I have done everything I can so far to get to that point.

Any help appreciated.

Was just wondering how long the site will be experiencing technical issues so I can get back to studying. I've found that I can still watch the video lessons, but I can't do the problem sets because they won't load due to the error.

Title pretty much says it all, I have gotten to a point in my studies where I feel like I know the content well enough to consistently score in the mid 150s, yet when it comes time to take a PT I just panic and don’t perform to the best of my abilities. The reason it’s so frustrating is just because I know I am smart enough, something just happens in my head whenever it comes to taking a PT that makes me panic and not think clearly, and I’m scared it’ll happen on test day. Should I give up? Is the test just not for me? These are questions that I have been asking myself lately, and it’s a tough pill to swallow considering the years I’ve put into this test, and how I have planned my entire education around going to law school. I’m not sure what to do anymore with really no improvement on RC and LR, just consistently getting around -11 on LR and even after blind reviewing I just feel as if I don’t internalize the information. For RC, there just seems to be absolutely no hope and I think that is where my score will be impacted the most, I usually miss around 14 and don’t even get to the last passage just because I am trying to be accurate with only 3 passages. However, I can’t even do that it seems, just constantly missing questions and not internalizing anything I read regardless of how much I take my time. If I could just find a way to score a 155 consistently, which doesn’t seem like a crazy stretch of the imagination, then my life would be made. Any tutor recommendations would be super appreciated and I really apologize for this mess of a post, I just felt the need to express my struggles and ask the 7sage community for help when I feel I need it most.

Just wondering if there were any tutors on here anyone would recommend.

Hey everyone, so since my fall semester just came to a close, I am about to start serious LSAT study again. I am pretty stressed about it all though, because for about a year and a half I’ve been studying the CC and full proofing LG. I have gotten to the point where I’m pretty comfortable with LG, but it has been so long since I’ve done any LR or RC. I am just concerned that all of the studying I did previous to fool proofing has been for nothing, since I didn’t keep up with it very well while I was fool proofing. I wanted to start taking PTs over the winter break, but I’m unsure if I’m ready since I haven’t done much LR training while I was foolproofing. So I guess my question is, how important is consistency if I’ve already studied for so long? Should I go ahead and begin practice testing, or should I redo all of the CC on LR and RC, which initially took me about 6 months?

So I have been studying off and on for almost 3 years now, taking breaks during difficult personal situations and tough academic periods during undergrad. I feel "decent" at LR and LG with a little bit more of a strength in LG, but my RC is AWFUL. I find that I am just generally a slow reader, and can take anywhere from 10-12 minutes per passage and questions which is just super slow. My goal score is somewhere in the mid to high 150s, and I was wondering if any of you wonderful people on 7sage has any advice for me to start implementing during timed sections and PTs in preparation for the June or August LSAT if I am really just trying to score in that range consistently.

So, I’ve recently discovered that some people score significantly less on the actual test as compared to PTs. There is a general “rule of thumb” that you typically score -3 from what you PT at. So if my target score is a 160, should I be comfortably at 163 before considering the real test?

What’s even more scary is I’ve seen that people drop like -8 or more on the actual test. For someone like me who is aiming for a 160, that much of a drop is absolutely terrifying. If I were to drop that much (assuming I’m actually capable of scoring a 160) then my score wouldn’t be near the median of the schools I’m looking at applying to.

This whole concept of test day drops is literally keeping me up at night, especially since anxiety is something I’ve always struggled with. So, right when I think LSAT prep is already hard enough, there is this possibility that I don’t even score what I’ve worked so hard for:(

Hey all! I was just really curious about the schedule. I’ve heard of people improving to 170+, and it taking a year or longer, but I’m personally just trying to get to 160 for my target school and I’m starting at around a 150. Would this also take a year like the schedule says? I’ve heard so many people claim it shouldn’t take a year to break 160s, but I just wanted to get some insight from the best LSAT community on the planet to ease my mind:)

So, I never actually took a “cold” diagnostic test. I have just recently joined started using 7sage and feel like I’ve wasted the last month and a half of how I’ve been studying. I used LSATMAX for about a month and during that time, got a 148 diagnostic without a sufficient understanding for really any section.

About 2 weeks later I took another diagnostic and got a 152. I was feeling a little bit more confident on each section (especially LR) and definitely improved, but I still didn’t feel as confident as I should have.

My problem is, I have recently made the switch to 7sage because I just thoroughly don’t enjoy the teaching methods of LSATMAX, and I also have just heard great things about 7sage. So, I guess my question is, should I look at my starting score as a 152? Or should it be more around the 148? I’m only asking because I see frequently that people say most students increase their score by 8-12 points, and with my target score being a 160, knowing what to call my “starting score” will either give me some reassurance that it’s possible, or realizing that it may not be in reach.

I am also just kind of curious on if I should skip over certain lessons on 7sage that I know I have a decent understanding in? Mainly, sufficient and necessary. I drilled this a ton and feel like I know a lot about it (sufficient word indicators and necessary word indicators etc) so I feel like I should dedicate more time to the actual question types.

I am also really concerned with the study schedule. It seems impossible for me at this point in my life to study for 30 hours a week when I am currently still in school. I’ve typically done about 10-15 hours a week, just depending on how much homework I have over the weekends.

Sorry for the lengthy post, just super stressed:(

Hey! So I am just wondering if anyone can give me a rundown on the new LSAT format and if there is any change to how the test is scored since it is only 3 scored sections now. I was also curious if it has been said if the rest of the test dates will be administered online like the June date?

So I am just now starting logic games and I am somewhat confused on when I should be doing the full proof method. Is that something that should wait until I start to PT, or should I full proof the problem sets from the CC as well? I am completely new to the games, and as expected I struggled on the first sequencing games. I am still having some trouble understanding if I need to go back and do the game over again or not like the full proof method says to do. If so, am I supposed to full proof every single problem set game that I struggle with initially?

So, I have recently started fool proofing PTs 1-35, and it has been about 3-4 weeks now. I am definitely seeing small improvements, but for some reason I had my hopes up to finish the fool proofing process before summer ends, leaving me to start doing PT throughout the school year. Oddly enough, I've figured out that doing 4 games a day and fool proofing them all takes an insanely long amount of time. I am curious on if I didn't fool proof every single game, just the majority of them. My target score is 160 and I'm wondering if I can afford to skip some games during the fool proofing process. As of right now, I am not even close to halfway done with all of the games, and considering doing most but not all of the games in order to get into full PTs.

So along with that, I was wondering how many games a day you all recommend in order to complete fool proofing in a reasonable amount of time. I have been trying to consistently hit 4 games a day, but of course there are days where I do less. It just concerns me with taking so long, because I don't want to forget all of the information I learned in the CC on LR. Any advice is appreciated!

I’ve had anxiety problems since I was 12, and have also been on medication for anxiety since then as well. Despite being on a medication, I still get anxiety during tests to the point where I nearly get sick to my stomach. The LSAT is the biggest test of my life, just like it is for many others. I have pretty much everything riding on doing well and hitting my target score. What can I do to lessen my test day anxiety? Is it possible for me to receive extra time or something? Is there a medication I should request from my doctor to help reduce the anxiety I have? I am just extremely stressed about this situation, and I haven’t even scheduled my test date yet.
