I took 2 leaves of absences when my mom died but she was sick my entire college career which deeply affected my GPA. Do I include it all into the character and fitness response or do I write an addendum as well.

Scoring between mid 160s to mid 170s. Looking for someone in a similar score range (or higher) to double down in the upcoming weeks.

Looking to over-train and do sections/drills that are much harder than anything we'd see on the exam. Looking to do ~3 hour days.

My main struggle areas are PF w/ similar answer choices, heavy conditional MBT, and heavy conditional SA.

Mainly work through discord. Drop a comment or send a dm.

How do y'all review for RC like untimed/timed sections for wrong and flagged questions?

Hi All,

Sometimes when I am working through the 'You try' sections of the lesson and I get a question correct, I don't feel the need to watch the video. I'm curious what other people do- do you tend to do the same as me or watch the video no matter what?

Hi all. I'm brand new to LSAT studying, and was immediately pointed toward 7sage.

I've seen so much about not wasting PTs, but I'm curious about "wasting" drilling questions. So far (for the two or so weeks I've been studying) I've been doing a 3-5 question LR warm up each day, just to get myself into study mode, thinking about the concepts, etc. But now I'm wondering if this is an unsustainable practice.

Does anyone do anything similar? Have you run into issues?

If not, do you do anything particular to focus yourself before diving into studying?

Would love to study with someone! I work at a firm full time so would have to be after 6:00 LMK!

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a study partner that is doing well on LR (-0-2) and wants to help someone that isn't! Message me if you are interested!

Hi everyone, I'm looking for a study partner that is doing well on RC (-0-2) and wants to help someone that isn't! Message me if you are interested!

Hi all,

I have a question regarding my letters of recommendation. I work as a paralegal at a small law firm, for two partners (husband and wife) who work very closely with each other and myself on pretty much everything. When I asked them to write letters of recommendation for me, they suggested writing one letter together rather than two separate letters. I did some research and have read that this is not recommended. However, I also feel that two letters from each of them may turn out to be redundant.

I should also note that I've been out of college since 2021, so I feel I'd be too far removed to ask a professor for a letter.

Has anyone encountered this before? Any advice on how to go forward?

Thank you!

I just took the February LSAT and payed for score review. What scores would everyone say to keep versus hide during the score review window?

Hi everyone! My name is Laura and I'm currently studying to take the LSAT in February. This will be my first time and although I am attempting to go in with some confidence, I'm also being realistic that my likelihood of having to retake it at least once is probably high 😭. Anyway, I do really enjoy studying and learning from others so if anyone is in the Chicagoland area and would like to make a study group or just be online study buddies (don't have to be in the Chicagoland area), I'd really like that! I don't have anyone in my life currently who is studying for the LSAT or any sort of major exam like this, so it'd be great to have some company.

I'm taking it either in April/June - looking for study buddies! Currently scoring in 163-174 range. Please comment or message me if you're interested in meeting up to drill or review sections together!

anyone available? I am happy to share my discord. A weekly meeting would be helpful.

For lawgic, Necessary_"is essential"Sufficient?

Hi! I got logged out of my devices and couldn't log back in. I changed the Password, however, I'm permanently logged out of everything and it says that the new password is incorrect!!! I pay for a subscription, so I'm upset that I can't access it. What do I do?

Hi everyone!

If you’re prepping for the April or June 2025 LSAT and looking for accountability, motivation, and a supportive study community, let’s connect! I’m starting a study group for test takers in the NJ/NYC area—whether you prefer to meet virtually, in-person, or a mix of both, we’ll figure out what works best for everyone.

The goal is to:

Stay accountable & consistent with studying

Share strategies, struggles, and wins

Create a judgment-free, motivating space to improve together

I saw groups in this area for people aged 25+, so I wanted to make this group for those who are younger (Early 20s)! If you're interested, drop a comment or DM me! Let’s do this together :)

I am currently in the core curriculum and I want to take the LSAT in June, should I begin taking practice tests ? If anyone can give me some advice i would appreciate it.

I'm just going to be real.

This test will demoralize you and really shake your confidence in your own cognitive abilities and self-efficacy. Oftentimes, you'll be stuck because you aren't able to know what you don't know and spend weeks to months hustling backwards. If anyone is in a similar place and wants to give/receive encouragement, tips, and complain/vent, I hope you'll feel comfortable enough to text me at XXXXXXXXXX or message me. Studying for this test can be very isolating because only the people studying for this test have any concept of how difficult it is. No one gets it. One of the ways this test can break you down is by creating incredible amounts of self-doubt that didn't exist before, especially if you are traditionally a high performer. It is comforting to know that you aren't the only one crying and losing your shit, which is why I wanted to get in contact with people who want to be real about how this test has affected their self-concept. It's very possible to lose months to even years of your life studying for this test while making no gains, and losing tens of thousands of dollars through tutors (non 7sage) who charged exorbitant fees and didn't give you the foundations, enough structure, or could not accurately diagnose where you were going wrong in your practice. Being able to talk to other people who are in the trenches with you and who also have been thoroughly demoralized and/or financially ruined by predatory grifters who were ineffective/condescending teachers can help you feel less alone and less that it is a "you" problem while helping to up your morale and figure out a game plan, manage test anxiety, and avoid pitfalls that will eat away at your morale, savings, and self-efficacy. Let's learn from each other's mistakes.

This test is deeply classist and ableist and we should stop being collectively gaslit that our performance on this test is determined primarily by merit and effort versus being heavily dependent on financial resources, support, and connections. Giving everyone who is reading and relating to this a virtual hug. You are not a loser and you are not stupid. Your tenacity and resilience will ultimately be rewarded. Let's give each other the privilege of knowing.

Hi, all,

Let's give everyone some reassurance! I know there are times I need/want it which means there are possibly others out there who need and want it.

My initial, blind diagnostic was a 143. Since then I've gone up to a 146. Progress is progress.

Context: I just started my study journey. On day 9. It's going well, in my opinion, and I'm working very hard to not get discouraged for a few reasons. 1) As we've heard the LSAT is HARD. 2) I've only studied 9 days. 3) I've been out of school for nearly 6 years. May sound like excuses but the facts are the facts.

Any similar stories, or success stories of raising your score overtime? Let's help everyone out and put their nerves and emotions at ease! We know, after all, that we CAN do this. Despite it maybe not feeling that way a time or two. (Or more.)

Hi! Is anyone interested or hosting virtual study groups? Thanks in advance:)

If you haven't joined, please do! The link should work for sharing purposes as well. https://discord.gg/AWekDrtwHc

So my friend told me that the practice tests are the most important when it comes to succeeding with the LSAT. Is that true?

Wouldn’t it be to go through all the videos and understanding them more important?

since no one responded-just not worrying about this anymore I'm the type of person that loves assembling things together without using other people's instructions, and I'm having a really hard time going into any part of the existing core curriculum content, especially with the large amount of hours that defaults at the top. I did go through the old version w/ lg and part of the new really fast and didn't retain much if at all- got a decent score but want the best score I can get. I'm confident that I can find my own path. But I thought maybe finding some reliable, consistent and responsive who is slowly working their way through the new core curriculum might be beneficial for me. Let me know if you might be that person. I'm on a work hiatus for a few weeks so I have a lot of time for now.
