Hi, I'm looking for a tutor that will help me go from mid 150s to at least reach a 160? I would love to get anything higher than that, but I feel like that's the least I need considering my mid GPA. I've been studying for months and just took the September LSAT but I feel like I still haven't made much improvement at all. I use to get really high BR (-4 to -1) on a section but I feel like I've undone any progress I've made. I hope to take it again in November, so would love some help!!! Please and thank you.

I have an official 168 and am aiming for a 99th percentile in October.

For my 168 I didn't do anything right. No BR, no error log, no PT's. Since June, I've been doing everything right and now I am playing whack-a-mole with new issues that come up.

My diagnostic RC was a -2 (161). Now I am averaging -4.

My 168 was with standard timing. Since then I was diagnosed with ADHD and that gave me a good reason to retake. Now I have 150% timing and I'm suddenly running out of time.

I finally understand the type of evidence each question deserves, now I overthink things until I switch to a wrong answer choice from a correct answer choice. Over half my missed answers I had correct before switching away.

I am looking for someone to take a holistic view at my situation, including my error log (a document I made after BR explaining how I came to the wrong answer on timed, BR, or both) and 7Sage metrics, and in one session try to diagnose what is going on and how I can remedy it to have a shot at a score increase in October.

I am losing faith in myself and it seems every new strategy I try and every new concept I unravel just reveals a new problem that leads to the same outcome of never breaking 170.

I had a diagnostic of 154 about 3 months ago, just took the September LSAT last week, and will be taking the October LSAT as well, aiming for a score in the mid 170s. I'm a bit rushed right now as I'm trying to be done with the test before I start full time work in late October. However, I've been plateauing in the 160s (my highest PT score is 167) despite consistent studying throughout the summer. I know my goal and timeline is very ambitious, but I still want to put in everything I can.

I'm looking for a tutor that will be able to meet with me a couple times a week over the next few weeks leading up to the October test, and help push me to break this plateau. As an initial self-diagnosis, I think I have a good understanding of the fundamentals, but I seem to have some execution issues especially for 4* and 5* LR questions, that are holding me back. I also need to work on my speed too, like processing more complex arguments and anticipating answers quicker. I'm willing to pay $40-100 an hour for a tutor. Thanks!

So logical reasoning is definitely still my weak point and definitely not able to hit questions as fast as I should. Currently scoring around 140s.

My budget is around 80 an hour for a tutor

For starters, I received my August LSAT score and it was a sad 146... So, I am in desperate need of a tutor it seems. I admittedly do not make a great income, so I cannot afford most tutors and their rates... However, I am willing to pay a rate of $50 to $90/hour if possible as I understand this is an investment that needs to be made.

Another thing I would like to share is that I am a neurodivergent individual -- ADHD and anxiety disorder. If anyone would be willing to work with me, and see if we are a good match, I would be more than happy to do so! (:

hi all! I just took the sept test (second time taking) and walked out feeling just awful, and registered for November. I got a 162 last November, and was PT-ing in the 165-170 range before September, with a goal of 174 for my dream school. I usually get 170-180 on BR so I don’t know how to properly diagnose issues but I feel very close to my goal. Pls reach out if you are able to tutor me!

I need a tutor for the LSAT that I am planning to sit for in November. My August LSAT, my score was a 138 and I need at least a 152. I can afford 30 or 40 an hour, please reach out if you can tutor me

Hello everyone!

My name is João, and I scored a 171 on the June 2026 LSAT. I’m currently offering LSAT tutoring for students who want to improve their scores through a structured, analytical approach rather than simply taking more and more practice tests.

As a non-native English speaker, I’m particularly familiar with the challenges that can come with mastering Logical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension. During my own preparation, I kept detailed records of my mistakes, identified recurring patterns, and created targeted drills to address the underlying weaknesses.

What I offer

1. Free initial consultation — We’ll look at your current performance and identify the areas with the most room for improvement.

2. Detailed PrepTest analysis — I’ll help identify recurring mistake patterns and why they’re happening.

3. Personalized drills — Practice specifically designed around your weaknesses.

4. Customized study plan — A focused plan built around your goals, schedule, and current score.

5. Logical Reasoning strategy — LR is my strongest area, and much of my approach focuses on developing a systematic way to analyze and eliminate answer choices.

My tutoring is especially suited for students currently scoring around 150–160 who are aiming to break into the 160s or 170s and want a more structured approach to their preparation.

Rate: $40/hour

Monthly package: $160 for 8 sessions (2 per week) — $20/hour when booked as a monthly package.

If you’re interested, feel free to message me. I’d be happy to set up a free consultation and see whether I can help.

Best,

João

I posted this on the 7Sage subreddit and am posting it here as well.

I am at a point with this exam where I just do not know what I am doing wrong. I have a PrepTest average of 174, have taken PT123+, and have extensively drilled the rest. I thought I had learned from my mistakes and had gotten much better after June. I isolated everything that went wrong, worked on it, drilled extensively, and performed my best ever on PrepTests (consistent high 170s, though some were not completely fresh).

And then I got a statistically indistinguishable score on the real thing in August (168 on the June exam, 169 on the August one).

I am starting to wonder whether I have just hit some sort of cap on what I can achieve.

As a result, I drilled tons and tons of 4* and 5* LR questions, requiring myself to get 25 correct in a row.

What other mountains are left to climb? Or should I just not apply this cycle?

The only thing I can think of is trying to rigorously train the process of elimination on LR, but I can't think of a way to drill it that doesn't just end up with me doing questions the way I normally do.

Update for 7Sage:

I've been going through the older questions and finding that older LR actually helps me with my process of elimination because I have to make a lot of tough calls down to two choices in a way I usually don't in the newer ones. However, the current test still feels like there are "two trap answers" instead of one, and I thought it might be my nerves, but I tried to feel a lot calmer in August, even though I was a bit tired. I basically feel like I know this test too well to walk away with a score like 169 when I think very deeply about its mechanics, found a lot of it intuitive to grasp, and obviously have done nearly 4,000 questions at this point.

I tried going to tutors on here, but I was pretty much just told that they don't know how to help me because I know the content very well and that I just need to execute better because it's infeasible the actual exam's LR is much harder.

If anyone has a similar background and eventually got out of it and now works as a tutor, please let me know. Specifically, someone who felt like they knew the test ridiculously well but for some reason could not hit their PT average.

Hi! I started at a 155 diagnostic, self-studied my way to an official 166, and then worked my way to an official 177. My LR was consistently -1 to -3 by the 166 test, but RC could swing anywhere down to -7 depending on the day. I told myself for a while it was just an off section, bad luck, whatever. It wasn't. I was avoiding it because it was the section I was worst at, which meant I wasn't putting in the reps that would have actually fixed it. And that avoidance makes sense. LR is more fun to sit down and do. RC is slower, drier, and less satisfying question to question, even when you're doing everything right. Neither section is a blast, but RC loses the fun contest every time, and that's exactly why people under-practice it.

Once I stopped letting my LR strength cover for my RC weakness and started treating RC like the section that actually needed the work, my score went from 166 to 177. Getting from the 160s into the mid-to-high 170s is where a lot of people stall out. It's where I struggled the most too. That's the part I want to help other students with: figuring out where they're actually losing points, being honest about the sections they're avoiding, and turning those weaknesses into something predictable and manageable.

This isn't just for people already in the 160s, though. If you're just starting out, or you're still in the 140s or 150s and the test feels like a foreign language, that's fine too. A lot of the habits that get someone from 166 to 177 are the same habits that should be built from day one, so you don't spend your first year of studying picking up things you'll have to unlearn later.

Two things I'll drill into every student, whatever your level:

• Blind review and wrong answer journal everything you miss. If it's a single section, do it that day or the next. If it's a full PT, wait until the next day so you're not just running on adrenaline and you don't exhaust yourself that day.

• Learn what to do when you're down to two answer choices. Everyone goes through this. You've read the stimulus or passage, read the question, eliminated three, and you're staring at two that both feel defensible. This is where people burn way too much time and sometimes still end up guessing wrong, and then run out of time on the questions after it. What I recommend is to read both one more time, figure out which one is more wrong, pick the other, and move on. The LSAT itself tells you this is going to happen; the instructions say: "For some questions, more than one of the choices could conceivably answer the question. However, you are to choose the best answer; that is, choose the response that most accurately and completely answers the question." Tutoring won't make this scenario disappear completely, but it should make it rare, and it should make you fast when it does happen.

My actual goal is to get the test to feel second nature, no matter where you're starting from. Not just accurate, but familiar, to the point where you can feel how a section is going while you're still in it. You should know you're having a good LR section as you're going through it, not find out three weeks later when the score comes back.

Sessions are meant to be a conversation, not a lecture. I want to work through problems with you, figure out where the actual gaps are, and build a plan from there. I don't want to just talk at you for an hour. I also genuinely believe this test is learnable. A lot of people feel like they've hit a ceiling, like their score is just who they are at this point. I don't buy that, and I want to convince you of it too.

I'm charging $40/hour right now. Comment below or message me and I'll set up a free intro call.

I'm looking for someone who can Help tutor me one on one and not charge crazy prices. I took the August LSAT and I'm scheduled for another retake in a few more months.

I am looking for a tutor to help me prepare for the LSAT exam in November or January depending on when I feel ready. I am struggling with where to start and how to progress.

Hi! I am hoping to find a tutor with affordable prices for LSAT tutoring sessions. I am aiming to take the test in January with a goal score of 165 if possible (of course higher) i struggle with Necessary Asumption, Flaws, and Paradox

Hey everyone! I’m Roman.I scored a 178 on the LSAT and I’m currently a JD + M.S. student at Penn, a KJD, and recently joined 7Sage as an Independent Tutor (though I've tutored for over 1.5 years and over 60 students off of 7sage). I tutor at $75/hour.

I definitely wasn’t someone who started out naturally scoring in the 170s. My first scores were in the low/mid 140s, so I’ve gone through pretty much the entire process of figuring out this test, getting stuck, changing how I studied, and eventually breaking into the high 170s. My biggest tip to anyone studying for this is that consistency beats intensity and the most important thing behind a good study schedule is being able to repeat it consistently.

I’m especially interested in working with people who feel like they’ve hit a plateau. A lot of the time, doing more questions isn’t really the answer. There’s usually something more specific going wrong such as maybe you’re consistently misreading certain arguments, getting down to two answers and picking the wrong one, struggling with timing, or approaching RC in a way that just isn’t clicking.

That’s usually where I start. We’ll go through how you’re actually thinking through questions, figure out what’s costing you points, and build from there. I’m not big on trying to force every student into one particular LSAT method either. What worked for me might not work exactly the same way for you.

I also help with law school admissions, including personal statements, application strategy, school lists, and general admissions questions. Having gone through the process pretty recently myself and now being in law school, I’m happy to help with that side of things too.

If you’re interested, just send me a DM with where you’re currently scoring, your goal score, and what you feel like you’re struggling with. Happy to chat and see if I’d be a good fit.

Hi! I'm looking for a tutor to help me get prepared for the October test. I took the August test and got a 163. Before that, my practice tests were closer to 165 with my best test being 168. I'm hoping to hone in on RC and timing issues and get closer to a 168 in October.

Hi everyone! I'm looking for a tutor for the November test, I'm currently scoring around the 163 to 165 range, and I want to break into the 170s in time for November. I'm going to be going to grad school in London, so I would need a tutor who can accommodate that. I mostly need help with my LR, and I think most of my foundational concepts are pretty strong, I'm just trying to improve under official timing conditions and break through my plateau. Please reach out if you think we would be a good fit!

Hello! I am looking for a tutor that can meet starting this week. I took the August LSAT and scored a 155 which is about 5 points below my average while taking practice tests. I am registered for the October LSAT and really hoping to get into the high 160's. I struggle with finishing sections and scoring consistently. For reading comprehension, I am usually only able to complete three passages and for logical reasoning tend to not be able to answer 3-4 questions. I realize that when I answer individual timed sections, I tend to do well, but I struggle with translating that into a practice exam.

I would like to meet with someone who can not just provide explanations for wrong answers but help me identify patterns in the mistakes I am making that are leading to incorrect answers and work on foundational concepts with me. I would also like to have someone who can help me develop a study plan.

For some background, I am working full-time as a paralegal. I am in the EDT time zone, so I am hoping I can meet with someone after 5:30 p.m. My range is about $30–$55 per hour for a tutor. Please let me know if you are available. Thanks!

Hello tutors. I am looking for a tutor who believes they are particularly good at Causal Reasoning. In my last practice test(156), of the 11 questions I got wrong between the two LRs, 7 of them were Causal Reasoning questions(S2. Q6,Q14,Q16,Q20,Q22,Q24 | S4.Q18), I think by locking this question type down I have a genuine shot of breaking into the 170s.

Actually, adding this part in after I wrote the first iteration of this post but for S2 of PT156, 6/7 questions I got wrong were Causal Reasoning. And for PT155, of the 8 questions I got wrong between the 2 LRs sections, 3 of them were Causal Reasoning.

I am looking to have 2 sessions between now and September 10th.

My price range tops off at $65/hr but I really prefer to pay around $40/hr.

DM me if interested!

Hi everyone!

Quick tip for anyone balancing LSAT prep with work or school: don't measure a productive study day by how many hours you studied or questions you completed. Give each study session a specific purpose, and leave enough time to review what you did thoroughly. Thirty focused minutes with good review can be much more valuable than several hours of drilling just to hit a volume goal.

As most of my current students finish their testing cycles, I'm opening additional availability for others preparing for the fall and winter administrations.

About me: I scored an official 180 on the LSAT while working full-time, so I understand the challenge of preparing seriously for this test around a demanding work schedule. Since then, I have tutored the LSAT full-time and worked with students across a wide range of scores, from students still building their foundations to those trying to break into the high 160s and 170s or make 170+ performance more consistent.

How I approach tutoring:

I don't think tutoring should just consist of someone explaining questions after you miss them. Most students can understand an explanation once they hear it. The harder part is learning how to recognize the issue yourself before choosing an answer.

During sessions, I want to hear how you reason through the question first: what you noticed, what you predicted, where you hesitated, and why certain answers remained attractive. From there, I'll walk you through my own reasoning so we can compare the two and identify exactly where your process is breaking down.

For Logical Reasoning, I focus heavily on argument structure, prediction, flaw recognition, and understanding why tempting wrong answers fail. The goal is not just to understand why the credited answer works after seeing an explanation, but to become increasingly capable of recognizing the reasoning yourself.

For Reading Comprehension, I focus on passage structure, viewpoints, author attitude, and knowing where information lives in the passage. Memorizing every detail is unnecessary. It's far more important to understand how the passage is organized so that you know what matters and where to return for textual support.

Personalized study plans

For private students, I also use your recent PTs, drilling analytics, Blind Review, review habits, wrong-answer journal, and what I observe during our sessions to build a study plan around the patterns actually costing you points.

The study plan is not something I give you once and expect you to follow unchanged until test day.

As your performance changes, the plan changes with it.

If something that was previously a weakness becomes reliable, we can reduce the time you spend there. If your next few PTs reveal a different recurring issue, that can become the next priority. What you're studying several weeks from now shouldn't necessarily still be determined by what your analytics showed today.

Tutoring may be particularly useful if you:

• understand explanations afterward but keep making similar mistakes

• frequently get stuck between two answer choices

• have a meaningful timed vs. Blind Review gap

• struggle with timing, second-guessing, or confidence

• feel inconsistent across practice tests and aren't sure why

• aren't sure what you should actually be prioritizing each week

Ways to work with me:

Private Tutoring (1:1)

Individual sessions built around your reasoning process, recent PTs, analytics, and current areas for improvement. What happens between sessions helps guide what we work on next, rather than treating each tutoring session as an isolated lesson.

Study Buddy Prep

A two-person tutoring option for students who already have a friend or fellow LSAT studier with similar goals and would like an alternative to private tutoring.

You each work through questions independently before we compare reasoning, which gives you the benefit of individualized feedback while also hearing how another student approached the same problem.

Weekly Group Classes

Small, interactive classes capped at 10 students. Each week focuses on a specific LSAT concept, question type, or strategy, with the topic announced in advance so you can choose the classes most relevant to you.

For each question, everyone first answers through an anonymous poll, so you're able to participate without publicly sharing your answer. Speaking is never required.

Students who want to can then explain their reasoning before I break down the question, share my own approach, and go through the structure, prediction, credited answer, and most tempting wrong-answer choices.

Classes currently meet:

• Thursdays at 6:00 p.m. ET

• Sundays at 3:00 p.m. ET

Thursday and Sunday generally cover the same weekly topic, so students can attend whichever works better or come to both for additional practice.

View upcoming group classes

Law School Application Support:

I also work with students once they transition from the LSAT into the application process. This can include personal statements, supplemental essays, résumé review, school-list and application strategy, LOCIs, and reviewing application materials as a whole.

Application support is offered à la carte, so you can get help with a particular part of your application or continue working with me throughout the process as needed.

Not sure whether tutoring makes sense for you?

I also offer a free 15-minute consultation.

We can talk through your current score range, goal score, testing timeline, recent PT performance, study history, and what has been giving you trouble. I'll also explain how I would approach your preparation and what I would likely prioritize if we worked together.

You can book a free consultation, comment here, or message me with any questions.

My accolades are above, but here's a few more: students of mine have gone on to break into the 170's, and have been accepted to Colombia, The University of Chicago, Stanford, and Harvard.

I was where you are now: I had a test to crush and a gulf between my skills and achieving that T-14 goal score. Well, I did what any person would do who didn't know what they were doing; I went searching for advice from people who had already achieved success. I read for hours and hours, the accounts of people who had received perfect and near perfect scores. Their advice had a very few common threads:

-Find a major prep company and completely work through all of their strategy lessons and drills

-Take many sections and tests both in untimed and timed formats

-Blind review all timed tests (taking them again entirely without a timer)

-Carefully dissect all incorrectly answered questions

At the time, the LSAT was still on paper and so explanations for LSAT questions were scarce. This was to my benefit and it can be to yours as well. That means relying on the explanations of 7Sage should only be done after you've exhausted considerable effort trying to dissect the questions yourself, given the correct answer. If 7Sage's explanation doesn't make sense or you are curious to hear a question explained in a different way, well that's what a tutor is for! I'll add just one bit advice to that which I found in my research: learn and understand any vocab word related to argumentation that the LSAT uses, which you are unfamiliar with.

If you'd like a tutor to help you through the rough patches and plateaus, I'm eager to join you where you're at on your LSAT journey. I use an "I do, we do, you do" approach to new materials. I'll model the appropriate techniques, whether that means stem analysis, argument analysis, passage annotation, answer prediction, answer choice selection, or trap answer analysis. From there I'll check to see if you've got the basics and ask you to take the next step at various points. Then it will be your job to walk us through an example. Finally, I'll only observe as you begin a new example and work through it beginning to end, giving my analysis or commentary at the end.

Sessions are typically two hours, once or twice a week depending on availability and the student's timeline. We'll often spend the first third/half of the session reviewing any questions that have been flagged for review by you. From there we'll jump into new materials.

My hourly rate changes based on whether you buy a package of hours or seek to pay session by session. It is as follows:

20 hour package - $70/hr

10 hour package - $80/hr

Session by session - $90h

Hello! My name is Greg, and I specialize in personalized LSAT tutoring tailored to each student’s unique needs and learning style. Since 2020, I’ve helped multiple students achieve perfect 180 scores and guided dozens more into the 170s through an adaptable, supportive, and results-driven approach. Admitted to the bar in 2025, I also provide guidance beyond the LSAT, including law school admissions strategy, school selection, and application navigation.

Outside of tutoring and law, I enjoy hiking, biking, skiing, and playing chess. I believe balance is an important part of success, and I encourage students to build sustainable study habits alongside their academic goals.

I just recently took the August test for the first time. I am looking for someone to tutor me for the upcoming October test.

I would like to meet at least twice a week if possible.

My target score goal is: 160-170

Please send any information my way or links for consultations and prices.

Hello Everyone!

If you just got your score back and are disappointed, lets make a plan for success. I love to help students learn that the LSAT is a conquerable test! Let’s start with a consult so that we can chart everything out, so I know what your goals are and you know how we can best reach them together! For a bit of background here is what working together typically looks like:

Initial Consult (Getting You Set Up for Success):

Our first session is all about understanding you: your goals, your timeline, and how you learn best. We’ll cover:

• Your background and any prior LSAT prep

• Your strengths (e.g., Logical Reasoning vs. Reading Comprehension)

• Your target score and law school goals

• What you’ve tried so far and what has/hasn’t worked

From there, I’ll build a customized study plan tailored to you. Our typical ongoing session structure:

• Strategic Review – We review recent practice, track progress, and break down missed questions in detail.

• Targeted Lesson – Focused instruction based on your needs (e.g., flaw questions, strengthen/weaken, RC main point, timing strategy).

• Drill & Practice – Apply concepts immediately with guided drills and live problem-solving.

• Recap & Homework – Clear takeaways and a structured plan for what to work on before our next session.

My goal is not just to improve your score, but to help you develop a repeatable system for approaching every question with confidence. I like to be very hands on and supportive throughout your studying to both make sure you are learning to the best of your ability and that you have a good accountability partner! You will leave each class knowing what to do in our time apart!

Reach out via chat or post a comment and Ill reach out to you- lets get started this week on mastering the LSAT together!

Best,

John

Hi, I'm Nick! I work primarily with students who feel stuck despite doing a lot of practice and who need a clearer system for understanding why they’re missing questions.

I went from 158 --> 178 in 4 months by learning how to diagnose my mistakes and change how I approached the test. I now work with students using that same approach, focusing on underlying reasoning issues that lead to fast, durable score improvements. I’m a good fit for students who want structured feedback and are willing to think carefully about their mistakes—not just do more questions.

You can find more about my tutoring philosophy, scheduling, and availability on my website. Happy to answer any questions!

I took the August LSAT and got a 146 from my original diagnostics being a 132. My goal score is around a 155 and plan on taking again in October. If anyone is available for tutoring please DM me or comment below.
