I am struggling with the end of LR sections and wanted to mimic the end of an LR section in my drills with 5 difficult questions. My plan in my drills is to include 1 parallel flaw, 1 weakening, 1 MBT, 1 SA/NA, and 1 Flaw as these are the types of questions that I usually encounter at the end of an LR section. Is there a better way of going about it? Are these questions actually more common or is it just random?
I finished the 7sage Core Curriculum and read the loophole in October 31, 2025. In mid-November took a PT after and got a 156 (BR 163). My goal (even though it might sound crazy right now) is to get 170+, ideally in the mid to high 170s (aiming to take the test in April 2026). My main weakness is LR. After reviewing my incorrect answers extensively in my Wrong Answer Journal, I identified some recurring weaknesses, including 1) NA, 2) SA with conditional reasoning, 3) MBT/MSS questions and 4) parallel reasoning question types.
I work full time and study 2-4 hours a day after work and on the weekend I study 6-10 hours a day. However, I am not sure if I am using my time wisely. Could someone please give me some advice on the following:
When should I move on from drilling each question type? For the past week and a half, I've been doing 5 easy, 5 medium and 5 hard questions for NA (unlimited time) and then thoroughly reviewing why I got questions wrong and analyzing why each answer is incorrect/correct. My accuracy rate is about 80%-100% on the easy/medium questions but on the hardest ones it is more variable. Should I keep drilling until I get a 100% on all the hard questions? Honestly, I don't know when that is going to happen and I'm worried I will burn through all the material before I'm ready.
My plan is to focus on doing these 5 easy/5 medium/5 hard question drills and reviewing my wrong answers for the 4 question types mentioned above for the rest of December. After I finish that, should I a) drill all my weak question types under timed pressure, b) do a timed LR section, or c) do an entire practice test?
To ensure that I'm retaining the information I'm learning, should I be doing a mix of LR question type drills? (i.e. once I finish both NA and SA drills, should I do a drill with both question types together)?
If I am aiming for April 2026. when should I begin doing entire timed practice tests?
Thanks so much for your help!
heyyyy everyone, making this post to see if anyone is interested in a morning study sesh! I work retail here in nyc and my schedule can be unpredictable, but I always have free time in the morning from 7 to 9 to study. I really need some accountability partners, so hopefully this schedule can align with some of you!
You can now select which days you want to study in your Study Plan setting!
Hi everyone - I'm a mid-career applicant with 10+ years experience in the government and non-profit sectors, applying to schools with strong public interest programs. If a law school doesn't have an explicitly stated page limit, is it ok to go more than two pages? I would like the extra space to include a full list of article and op-ed publications to burnish my academic credentials given that it's been a long time since graduation and my GPA was nothing spectacular. Or is this better addressed as an addendum/supplementary material? Finally, should I put my education or work history first? Many thanks!
does anyone have a list on all the question stems for LR?
Just curious if there are any best practices for WHEN to BR after a PT (other than 'do what works best for you and your schedule). Do you take a small break then get into it? Long break but same day? Or is it advantageous to go back to BR the next day?
I’d love a feature that recommends relevant Core Curriculum content after each drill. For example, if you miss a Sufficient Assumption question, a link could appear directing you to the corresponding Sufficient Assumption lesson in the Core Curriculum.
Hey hey! Should i be focusing on timing after each section's "You Try" or should I do them 'untimed' and not worry about it right now? I am still going through the curriculum and in the beginning I was trying to answer these questions as fast as possible but then I was wondering should I just take my time until I start getting to the timed drill sections? Any thoughts on timing?
I took PT159 over the weekend and sadly it destroyed me.
Since the official explanations from JY/Kevin are not available yet, with the mindset of "what doesn't kill you makes you stronger", I wrote out my explanations of some LR questions under "Discussion". I intend to continue to write more tomorrow.
Please let me know if you have any feedback / if my explanations are clear.
Thank you for your time in advance!
Anyone taking the lsat in january and want to create a study group to lock in for the next month?
I am in need of tips and tricks to help me understand and get me out of this big point difference. During a LR section I have ranged from -10 to -12 but when I blind review I always get -5 or better. Is anyone else experiencing this?!
Hi guys, just got my score hold lifted and I wanted to say thank you to 7sage for helping me with getting a 180. I started off with a pretty low diagnostic(165) and they were able to help me move up by 15 points!!!!!. Thanks to J.Y for the explanations.
Looking for analytics that tell me what question types I spend the most time on.
I just scored a 164 on PT133.
Anyone have any tips for improvement/strategizing? Context I am sadly juggling a full-time job, so my study schedule is either an entire section or drill before work in the morning, blind reviewing that section /drill after work. I usually take a PT on Saturday. My blind review is 2-3 days of me thoroughly reviewing each question, as I feel this the best space for growth. So in reality I only do 2-4 sections a week.
I have been slacking this week sadly as I am being made privy to the realities of working at a law firm (immigration, fun times :)) and have almost 0 energy in the morning, but I will get back on it tomorrow morning. I wanted to know if any tutors or anyone in general had thoughts or any advice in general based on what they see above, as well as navigating full time job + lsat prep, even though I know this question has been beat to death.
Further context, I delayed to apply next cycle, so I'm trying to take the February or April exam, aiming for a 172. Thanks for any help!!!
Hey Guys! I need some advice. I am currently planning to take the LSAT in February 26 and need help deciding on if I should adjust my study plan. I have taken the LSAT twice, so I understand what is being asked and the structure of the test, but I struggle heavily with reading comprehension (staying locked in while reading) and timing, plus question types and second guessing on logical reasoning. I started from the very beginning with my study plan because it may be helpful, but maybe I should center the next two months on practicing and working on timing since I've gone through the actual test twice? I work full time, so my studying comes in the evenings, how should I dedicate my time? I am really only looking to jump maybe 10 to 15 points for my score which currently sits at a 146. What should I do?
Going to try to take the LSAT in February again! Would love to find others in the davis county area to study with and see if we can improve!
Looking for LSAT study partners! I’m testing in February and would like to study with people!

I'm taking the LSAT in January 2026 and plan to submit my application to all the law schools I'm interested in as soon as I get my score. Is it too late to apply to start in the fall of 2026? I'm in Florida, and a majority of the schools I want to go to have their priority deadlines by February-March 2026. Will I make it just in the nick of time?
Hey everyone!
I’ve recently started studying and have been following a pretty strict study schedule. I’m about five months out from my test date, and I’m wondering if this is a good time to start increasing the intensity of my studying, or if you’d recommend a different approach. There are so many drills and practice tests available, and I’m unsure whether I should save the drills for closer to the test date. Any advice given is super helpful! Thank you!
Hello everyone! I took the November LSAT, and while it wasn’t exactly what I hoped for, I scored a 155. I’m scheduled to retake the test in January and would love to connect with someone local who’s in a similar score range to study together.
For reference, I’m currently scoring between 155–160 and blind reviewing at 166.
I’ve taken a month off, so I might be a bit out of practice. If you’re planning to test later, that’s fine—I'm in the same position. I won’t be applying this cycle, so I’m hoping to connect with someone to study and stay motivated together.
P.S. I am a 23-year-old black female and would feel most comfortable studying with another woman.
I have completed the core lessons, I will be taking the January LSAT, I did my first PT 2 weeks ago and got 146 BR 155, then last week I got a 142 BR 153, and today I got a 138 BR 153 yet, whats going on? I thought I was getting a hang of it. I am crashing out, Aiming for 149-155. Any sugguestion whats wrong with me?? Please dont sugguest to restart with fundamentals, I get that but man this is not normal!
