Hi there,

My name is Rob. I graduated in April and have a 3.92 GPA. I am PTing 150-160 with BR at 170+. I will be studying and prepping until my score is consistently over 170. I don't care about what cycle that puts me in.

I am looking for someone who REALLY wants to succeed at the LSAT and wants to help me succeed. I only want to work with ONE person. Any more than that and I do not feel it will be productive for me. If you're not up for that, please don't waste your time reaching out.

If you are interested in a rigorous and concentrated approach with no B.S. allowed, I would love to chat and see if our approaches to the exam are compatible. To do so, we can jump on the phone and talk or zoom to get more into details. Please consider this non-committal conversation a way for us to see how we might work together.

The study schedule that I can reasonably accommodate right now (through May 2021) is as follows:

Monday: Full Exam/Blind Review (3-5 hrs)

Tuesday: Single Section (30-45 min)

Wednesday: Single Section (30-45 min)

Thursday: Single Section (30-45 min)

Friday: Deep Review/Analysis (3-5 hours)

Saturday: Full Exam/Review (3-5 hrs)

Sunday: Review/Off (0-2 hrs)

I can foresee a "study buddy" relationship being as follows:

  • A regular phone call/zoom meeting to talk about questions/problems with LSAT
  • Regular accountability check-ins to push each other
  • If you're interested, message me directly. I only want people who are SERIOUS about this. Ultimately, I will only choose one person to work with.

    Thanks for your interest!

    Best,

    Rob

    P.S. I hope that this note does not come off as me being disrespectful, mean, discriminatory, or overly-exclusive. I have a specific approach I want to take to my study for this exam, I need help, and this structure is what I can accommodate.

    Hi everyone,

    I am looking for one study buddy who is still working through the core curriculum and aims to take the exam either Feb 2021 or April 2021 and preferably someone shooting for mid-upper 160s. I work a 40-hour/week corporate job so I need to be extremely regimental in my studying and would love to have someone to discuss and review, as well as keeping each other on track.

    Reasonably my study schedule is as follows:

    Monday-Friday: start studying between 6-8PM Central Time (Based in Austin, TX)

    Saturday, Sunday: during the day

    I think this would be more useful when we get to the PT part of the course (my goal is November) but I really want to work with someone from the start.

    DM me if you think you'd be interested - we can chat on the phone or FaceTime to see if our goals are aligned and would get something out of working together.

    Sophia :)

    Hi All,

    Wanted to see if anyone was interested in doing a study group for the November exam. I'm currently scoring in the mid 60's trying to break into the 70's. I'm mostly struggling with LR & RC and am pretty solid on LG so if anyone wants to study together let me know! Figured we could make a groupme or something i'm in NY so would ideally love to study with other people on EST but am more than happy to study with anyone :)

    UPDATE: Awesome will email y'all tonight!

    Hi!

    I noticed there were a few study groups for november lsat but they were all had a lot of traffic so maybe we can start another group?

    Looking to hit upper 160s. Maybe we can go over questions we missed a few times a week on PTs. Leave your email!

    Also I was thinking it'd be great to chat one another but I'm not sure what people are willing to give out. After I message you/email you what would you guys like to use to chat or schedule meetings?

    EDIT: Hey guys I'm probably going to end up capping this study group now. Thanks so much for all the responses

    Currently PTing in the low-170s and hoping to get a small group together to help everyone score consistently in the mid-high 170s by the November exam!

    My study schedule is roughly all day on the weekends + weekdays before 1pm PST.

    Let me know if you're interested and we can get a group going on whatever platform works best for everyone :)

    Hey everyone! My name is Emaan! I just started my LSAT journey here on 7sage but have been studying by myself these past couple of weeks. I'm looking to see if anyone is interested in a study group/accountability group/ just a place where we can talk about the test, the CC, discuss any questions, practice and just vent!

    Comment below if you're interested!

    Hi! I was wondering if anyone used focusmate and wanted to join a group for 7sagers

    Focusmate is a productivity website where you get to work silently with other strangers.

    Add your focusmate email if you are interested!

    Hello, guys would anyone like to start a small group chat focused around preparing for the November 2020 LSAT or any exams at later date this year (i.e January or February). Definitely would like to start a small group chat with around 8-10 where we can bounce ideas off of one another and seek guidance.

    If you think this may be something of interest please comment below with your email information and I'll be sure to coordinate accordingly.

    Thank you !

    My PT average is 165, and my goal is 170+. I'm looking for a group/buddy currently testing in the 160s to do a blind review "debate/discussion" of one practice test every week, with some optional additional review together.

    I'm in Asia now, but the time difference is pretty convenient with US times - 10 hours ahead of eastern/11 hours ahead of central/12 ahead of mountain/12 ahead of pacific

    E.g., we could meet Friday night your time - Saturday morning my time / Saturday morning your time -Saturday night my time / Sunday night your time - Monday morning my time. Also open to other options. Best,

    Hello all!

    I have taken 5 (FLEX format) PTs (PT 1-5), I have not taken any recent PTs or seen LR questions from recent PTs. My average was 160 but I have seen some of the questions on these exams except for RC section.

    My goal score is 165+

    I am very comfortable with LG (0 ~ -2 timed but am taking a big hit in RC -12+ timed and -7~ -8 blind review.

    LR is okay. (-4 ~ -8 timed). I know I have most to be gained from studying RC since my score is so low and that is precisely what I am doing. After some studying my timed have gone down from -14ish to -9 ~ -11, my BR score has improved as well, -2 ~ -5

    The reason I feel rushed to take the Nov is because I don't feel comfortable taking 5-section exam in general even though I am signed up for Jan LSAT.

    To be honest I just want to take November because I don't think there will be anymore 3-section exams. I figured, if I don't hit the goal score in Nov, I can study for another 6 months and prepare for the 5-section exam.

    Any thoughts are greatly appreciated! And, good luck to those taking the exam soon!

    Hi, my name is Valerie! I am a recent college graduate who works as a full-time project assistant in a Washington D.C. BigLaw. I plan to study six months for the February test while working full time. Two months to go through 7sage core courses and four months to take practice exams.

    CLOSED FOR NOW

    Pretty early for January, but I have a low gpa and I'm trying to squeeze out everything I've got. (Won't be applying until next cycle) My PT average is 167 and I'm BR in the mid 170s, aiming for a 175+. Main issue is logical reasoning, pretty solid on lg. Looking for a group/buddy to review with, am Central time but can be flexible!!

    Comment or message me :)

    Hello 7Sage community! I am a full-time worker and I have been studying for the LSAT for 6 months now. I have a pretty solid foundation with BR scores ranging between 172 - 177, but I am having trouble translating that performance to timed sections. I consistently feel behind and slow. I am typically not even looking at 6-7 questions on both LR and RC. I am improving on LG with recent timed sections at -4/-5. Still work to do to get to -0, but it is an improvement.

    I am currently PT-ing in the high 150s (average is 158). I am targeting 165+ and would appreciate having a tutor help me develop strategies to get there. I know I can do it, I just need some guidance along the way.

    I am in Chicago (Central Time) and am available before or after work (before 9am and after 5pm). I am scheduled for the October and November exams and am highly motivated to meet as often as possible to improve.

    If anyone is out there scoring 165+ (hopefully in 170s), please DM me. I am happy to get together over Google Meets or whatever is easiest. Thanks!

    Hi! I'm signed up for the November LSAT and am currently scoring in the 167-169 range. Would anyone like to form a study group? I am looking for people to help keep each other accountable and form a study schedule! Leave your e-mail below if interested :)

    I'm looking for 2-3 people to be study buddies for the Nov test. I'm aiming to take my ~170 to 175+ (horrible undergrad GPA) and it'd be nice to review with folks in a similar boat, plus I usually do better in small groups or 1-on-1!

    I'm in PST timezone, we could use Google hangouts and/or Discord, or whatever you're comfortable with. My most common study time is weekends and around 3pm-6pm PST on weekdays, so might work well with EST folks studying in the evening too. Tentatively, I'll be spending Sept 21 - Nov 7 working through PTs 60s and then 80s. (Saving 70s for in case I need a retake in Jan). If that plan lines up with anyone else out there, I'd love to hear from you!
