@ Some of them will be up in the coming weeks, but I can't say for sure when they'll all be ready.
Thank you! Take care! get some rest!
Does anyone know when the explanation will be posted under PT87? I only see LG available now, and I know the expiration day is ended soon ( end of August )

Hi, they've been available for a while now.
https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/preptest-87-video-explanations-for-all-questions/
Your account looks like it's expired which is probably why you can only see the LG explanations.
Did you have access to PT 87 when your account was active? If so, the link above should have worked. If you'd like to see about reactivating your account, please contact studentservice@.com.
thank you for letting me know. I bought it when it had promotion and was waiting to see the LR & RC explanations for a while, but only see the logic game section. My account just expired last week T_T.
I only see games section. Anyone knows when will the LR & RC be available?
This schedule is very helpful! When do you review the PT? Also, do you review all questions or just the question you missed? Thank you!

Hey sorry for the delayed response. I have been studying since around Sept 2019 (I had briefly "studied" by reviewing a PowerScore book and taking a diagnostic a couple of years before that but don't really count it).
Sept 2019 - Nov 2019 = CC
Dec 2019 - June 2020 = PT and drills
I started drilling LG as soon as I finished CC. I would do 5, 10, 15, etc a day until I finished all of the PT 1-35 games. I would also revisit the 1-35 games for foolpoofing and revisit any game I had already taken in a PT.
Before March/corona, I could usually only do one PT a week (Saturday) because I work full-time. After corona and being able to work from home, I was able to switch to PT on Saturday and PT on Wednesday before work because I wouldn't need time in the morning to commute or really get ready for work.
So that schedule would look like:
Saturday: PT 1
Sunday: BR
Monday: drills (either timed sections or individual games and individual passages)
Tuesdays: drills & maybe revisit things from the Saturday PT
Wednesday: PT 2
Thursday: BR
Friday: drills

You get a lot of info about each school and a TON of waivers. You also get a chance to talk to someone on the admissions team and can get insight into what they are really looking for in applicants. I went to the one in SF two years ago and it helped me figure out which schools I wanted to apply to!
decided to go after I read your first sentence lol
Thanks a lot!!
My LR and LG are improving but NOT RC. I get under 5 LR questions wrong and under 3 LG questions wrong each section. But RC is averaging 15+ wrong questions, which is very discouraging. One reason is the vocabularies in RC. When I read a word that I am not familiar with, I tend to get stuck there and try to figure out the meaning of the words. How do you usually study the new words in passages? Also, I found that I always stuck with two answer choices that are very similar, especially on inference questions.
What can I do before October and November test? Any advice is appreciated!
@ said:
Step 1 is to do an evaluation. Do another section and start with the last 10. See if you're getting them wrong because of difficulty or because of endurance.
It's more because of the difficulty
I think my problems are a little of both the reasons you mentioned. Timing and difficulty. Endurance is not a big problem since Flex is 3 sections now. Is it better to start from last questions? More difficult to easy? Anyone tried to practice from the last to the first question?
@ said:
I think the reason why is one of, or a combination of, three reasons: 1) endurance, 2) timing/feeling rushed, and 3) question difficulty (harder logic games and passages tend to be one of the last two in each section). I'd recommend checking your timing for the earlier questions after 7sage's practice tests to see if it's an issue of timing. You can also look at the question/passage/game difficulty for the ones you're missing and see if it's difficulty.
If you think it's partially endurance, right when you finish a section, immediately grab another from one of the earliest tests and just do 5 more problems at random. It's like with running - you train at distances longer than you "race" for.
Hopefully this helps. I've had a number of concussions, so fatigue is a major issue for me, and it's helped me.
I also agree with the translation drill recommendation above! Read the stimulus, cover it up or close your eyes, and translate it back into your own language. Identify the conclusion, and the controversy or the loophole, etc
How do you do translation drill? Does it like practice simplifying the sentences into your words?
@ said:
Hey! I had a similar problem. My tutor recently suggested me to do at minimum 10 questions a day of LR from Q15-25/26. I've been drilling about 10 a day and I've seen an increase in my accuracy!
I have a wrong answer notebook in where I write down answer I get wrong, the question type, the reason I missed this answer choice, and a solution for this!
LR isn't about memorization for the most part. It is about taking the bigger picture. I used to be -16 in LR and have since moved to -6. I found in my wrong answer journal that the biggest reason I missed a question was because of my poor understand of the stimulus.
Once I knew my issue, I started doing ONLY translation drills of the stimulus. I would read it once, and then cover it up, and try to translate what I read in my own words.
I found a pattern that I get most Q1 to Q 15 on LR right, but after Q15-16, I start to get more wrong question. Anyone has similar situation like me? Any good suggestions to improve it? Thank you 7sagers!

In this instance, they are using an instead of "a" because earlier is a vowel.
This link explains it.
https://www.dictionary.com/e/a-vs-an/
"A" and an are interchangeable, it just depends on the word that comes next. While they do mean 1 as in your apple example, it doesn't mean the day immediately preceding, just any day preceding.
Thank you so much 😊

Hi, I took my flex exam on an iMac in July! You need to have a handheld mirror with you, and you will have to "reflect" your surroundings like your desk and under your desk using the mirror. It took like 30 seconds and it wasn't an issue at all.
Thank you so much!
there's no downside to retake. you definitely can get a higher score. 165 and 170+ can make a huge differences and will save you so much $$$ on law school.
Will you offer alternative way for the LG access? Maybe another package just for all the games or open access to starter package ?
@ said:
You need a webcam. It can be separate from the computer though. LSAC has a pretty extensive list of what's allowed and not allowed in. the FAQs https://www.lsac.org/update-coronavirus-and-lsat/lsat-flex.
The iMac has webcam. It's a big giant monitor with a webcam. I wonder if it is allowed and if so, do I hold this giant monitor around when I scan the room?
Is iMac allowed for Flex test? Anyone tried before? If so, how did you show the room to your proctor in the beginning? Thank you!
Anyone knows law schools use cumulative or degree GPA (from LSAC) for their 509 report?
Also, which GPA is more important for law schools when they review students’ application ?
Thank you!!
@ said:
J must meet on an earlier day of the week than O would be J-O
J _ O would be J meets 2 days earlier than O or that there is one day in between when J and O meet
And JO would be J meets on the day immediately before O
Isn't the "an" represents one day? like an apple is one apple? Thank you !
When I did PT 66 Game 1, the last rule was confusing:
"J must meet on an earlier day of the week than O."
Why is it not "J _ O" but it is JO, since it said: AN earlier day?
Thank you
when will we have access to LR explanation videos?

The conclusion is that the survey respondents may have been biased in favor of Lopez. B is incorrect because people in the live audience =/= survey respondents, and even with B the argument could very well still be true, or at best B minimally weakens the argument (how many were in the live audience? 200? How many were surveyed? 1 million viewers? who knows). D, the correct answer, includes the specific group of people we're talking about in the stimulus and includes the modifier "most", which weakens the argument that the audience was biased in favor of Lopez. D is almost like a direct counter premise.
Thank you!
I am confused why B is not right? I was focus on the words "Tanner was more persuasive"

For those who signed up during "promo" period before (I remember that it is 1 year access?), do we still need to subscribe? Thank you!
I think powerscore and lsat demon are going to come up 3 sections. HOOOPE 7SAGE can catch up!
Hi all!
I am wondering when do you start sending transcript to LSAC and get to know your LSAC GPA?
Thank you!
I usually wake up early around 5:30am to study LSAT before work. I am wondering if there's anyone also like to study in the morning? What do you start with your morning study? I usually do some PT questions the night before and start with reviewing the question in the morning (first thing to do) or I will start with some lectures classes(gives my brain some time to wake up while listening to explanation LOL). how do you start with your morning study routine?
My answer is: JUST APPLY. (apply the schools you really want to go. Worse case is just a rejection letter, so what?)
The thing that makes me disappointed is : why 7 sage didn’t notify us about it? I'd rather share account with others to lower to cost
I am a little confused about the weak answer and strong answer choice in necessary assumption question. So it said in the CC that we should always look for weak answer choice, and most strong answer choices are wrong when it comes to NA question.
But sometimes I also see strong answer choice as the correct answer. For example, PT 24 Section 2, Q17. The AC B : "no nation that was not among the major powers at the end of the second world war would become a major power"
Is this a strong language AC? So in a situation we should focus on weak/strong language AC?
Thank you!
I love that book too. I love the loophole and CLIR methods on LR.
For USC, is it too late to apply in February after receiving Jan LSAT? Thanks
For the full 7Sage course, is starter package counted as full course? Where can I find the recorded videos? Thank you
