Hello 7Sagers,

I have seen a couple of January study groups but haven’t had any luck so far. I am looking for a couple study partners who are currently scoring in the high 150s hoping to break 165+ in January. Right now, I am taking one PT a week, taking a full day to blind review, and working through what I have left of the CC.

I am mostly looking for people who would want to talk through strategy, work through the harder questions and help keep each other accountable to our study schedules.

If this interests you, please drop your email below. Thanks!

Hi there

As of today, I have been studying for the LSAT for about 3 months. My timed PTs were literally in all parts of the 150s. I only used the LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim during these three months, and I think this helped me to understand the really fundamentals well. I believe this is the case because --- I know some people feel really icky about untimed PTs --- I took about 10 untimed PTs, and they were never lower than 165. So, I decided to buckle up and study for this test a little more with 7sage (yes, from the beginning of the core curriculum) and apply next cycle perhaps.

I think I'm relatively good at studying by myself, but I think it would also be really nice to have a study partner of sorts and someone whom I can check in maybe every week or every other week with about our progresses (or regresses, it happens). If you are interested in something like his, please privately message me :)!

Hi all!

I'm taking the November and January LSATs and honestly don't really have that much time to study as I have a full time job and a generally pretty busy lifestyle. Instead of study buddies that are more hands-on, I simply need somebody that can be an accountability buddy that will make sure that I am spending some time studying at all. I am scoring in early to mid 160s and hope to score 170+ by January. Is there anybody in a similar situation that wants to join me in pushing each other? As well, I am applying to Canadian schools, so if there is anybody here that might want to swap application info with, that'd be great too.

Thanks!

Hi community! I am taking the November test and looking for accountability/BR partner. Currently scoring in the mid 160s and am trying to get close to 170 -- might be an unrealistic/ambitious goal as test date is close. LR/RC are my weaker sections, they alternate depending on the test, LG is 0 to -2. I am in the east coast and currently working + doing a masters, but I can be flexible during evening time/weekends. My goal is to take and BR at least 2 PTs a week and also go over LR fundamentals/basics and practice them with one or two study partners. Please let me know if you'd like to work together or have any tips for test takers struggling with LR (LR was -7 to -9 but brought it down to -4 to -5 after going through Loophole, but since then no improvement)!

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!
