I am currently scoring -6 on my LR sections. I am guaranteed incorrectly answering level 4 and 5 questions. I aced 1,2,3 level questions, but as soon as a level 4 or 5 question gets thrown in the mix, I get it wrong. It doesn't matter question type, ie Conditional Reasons, Causal Reasoning, Main Conclusion etc...If it is a level 4 or 5 I will get it wrong. Looking for strategies to use the improve and make a jump from getting all level 4 or 5 wrong to getting down to -3 on LR.

I'm finding the answer choice tag floating dialog box pop-up explainer describer things very helpful as I review my wrong answers. Example: Illusory Inconsistency! It's wonderful having a clear title for the AC type that keeps seducing me lol. But when I tried to click "learn more" https://7sage.com/lsat-resources/cheatsheet/lr-answer-choice#illusory-inconsistency it looks like the page is broken? Is this still a work in progress? Is there a page where we can view all of the AC type tags?

How do I drill RC in 7Sage Or do I have to go in lsac to drill a rc passage ?

I keep losing my notes when I type in the notes tab. Sometimes it's my own fault, where I accidentally cut a piece of text or accidentally paste onto a piece of text. Other times, like just now, I write a wall of text only to have it disappear due to a weird glitch. No biggie if I can just Ctrl-Z to undo the disappearance, but the text fields here don't allow undos.

General Context

I began studying in March of 2025. Originally my plan was to attend law school starting in 2026, but my wife advised me to adjust my timeline. Since then I have been a little spotty studying. My resolve was there, and I would go through streaks of studying 2+ hours everyday at the library, but I live a very busy life (army reserves commander, full-time management job with overtime, house reno, etc.). I have gone through about 50% of the 7Sage curriculum, along with the whole of the LSAT Trainer, and the Loophole. Right now I can religiously get a low 170s test on an untimed PT. I aim for the August LSAT.

Mental Burnout/Path Forward Background

About every 2 out of 3 questions I get wrong are because of misreading because I not fully engaged in the text, or just simply disengaging. I sometimes read a stimulus and realize I have no idea what I just read, or if something has a little tricky language I have to fight my brain to focus on it. I probably average around 2 questions a test that I get wrong that I got the logic wrong, the rest is this. It just feels as though my brain is seeing the LSAT as a fight, and trying to disassociate from it. Even for questions I find easy I sometimes have to labor to get my brain to fully think out why the answer is correct. This doesn't feel like something I can fix by just drilling my way out of it, rather it feels more foundational.

Questions

How do I fix the problem of disassociation or mid-test/section mental burnout problem in time for the August LSAT?

Knowing the background of my studying, how would you recommend going about studying the remainder of the way? Just chug along and push through?

Hello everyone, I was wondering how to go about improving my sudden drop in accuracy. My drills have been constantly improving in the past couple months. I was going from -0 to -4 out of 10 on drills. (I usually do 5 to 15 question per drills) Then these past few weeks I've noticed a significant drop, and it culminated today when I did a drill and I got a whopping -9 out of 10. The past few weeks I've noticed that suddenly when I'm drilling I'm usually going -5 to -8 out of 10 (per drill). It's getting to me.

I was wondering if some people here have experienced this kind of slide, or maybe it's something else that I'm doing or not doing. I feel frustrated that I am not improving at all.

I hope this doesn't come off as a pity party to other people, but I am hoping for some tips that helped you along the way.

Hi! This is my second time going through the LSAT, and I realized one of my biggest issues on the RC is that when I read through, even if I highlight or take notes, I don't grasp the information and have to waste time by going back into the passage while answering questions. I find that I am subconsciously substituting note-taking for understanding, and even though I can summarize the main points into a quick note, that understanding does not get engrained into my head and I find myself needing to go back into the passage to answer the questions, thus wasting time. Furthermore, the act of note-taking itself wastes time, so I am not sure what the best approach is to efficiently read through the passage without having to go back into the passage to answer most/every question.

I would really appreciate any advice!

This is maybe more of a question, but I noticed for the section of my study plan in the month of June, most of the RC lessons are marked as done. I definitely did these in the main curriculum, but a few days ago it appeared as 0% complete, so I assumed there would be lessons to work on there. Is this a bug from current development or did it just finally load that I did many of the lessons already?

I am struggling to create an effective/efficient study plan? Does anyone have any advice or a sample I can use? I am taking the test in 6 months.

Hey everyone, I’m new to 7Sage but I’ve been studying for a few months now. RC has definitely been my weak spot so far. Please drop your best tips, tricks, or mindset shifts for reading comprehension. I want to hear the things that actually made it finally click for you. I’m open to anything at this point. Especially anything that helped you understand passages better without rereading everything over and over.

I just scheduled my in-person test date and time for June. I'm feeling very nervous and jittery as always, and I've booked off 4 days from work before my test so I can mentally prepare myself and also complete the argumentative writing portion. Anyone have any advice on how I should spend my time those last few days before the test? Any experience with in-person testing centres (ontario based)? Is it a good idea for me to do the argumentative writing portion that close to my test day?

Hi I'm currently studying for the lsat but would love a study buddy or someone that I can review and learn together with. We can meet at a cafe or simply through zoom. Im in the Hudson County area, if anyone is interested pls send a dm!! :)

All law students are readers. Some readers are writers.

Inference:

A. Some law students are writers

B. All readers are law students

C. Some writers are readers

D. Some readers are not law students

I tend to always miss 1-3 questions within the first 15 questions of a section, and always get the rest (harder ones) correct. No idea why, I really want to fix this so I can ace all!!!

I just took another PT after my benchmark. Between the times, I have only finished the foundations section of the course and have done minimal drilling. I studied my wrong answers for my benchmark exam too before taking this exam. I saw a ZERO score raise after taking this 2nd PT. Is this common or is this a sign that I have been studying wrong?

Would love to know if anyone else has had a similar experience or if this is common. Any tips or suggestions would really help.

Hi everyone, my name is Patrick and I'm a new studier starting my LSAT journey and thought it would be super beneficial to study in a small group together either online or in person. I think meeting once or twice a week in a library for an hour or two could be useful for keeping us all motivated, on track and in high spirits for the arduous journey ahead.

Please let me know if you have any questions or suggestions, and best of luck with your LSAT journey :)

Is anyone taking the LSAT in June in Chicago? If so, are you familiar with the proctoring location? Looks like it's in an office building. Does anyone have any experience testing there? Tried to look up more information, but did not really see much about the whole process in that specific building. Also, there were 3 different centers listed for Chicago in the same building at the same time... I just picked a random one that had my preferred date, but I don't know if one section is more preferred than the others. Let me know about your experiences!

A couple weeks ago I felt was stagnate but now I generally feel like I'm improving. I got my highest score ever on PT 154 ( a 157)and I'm so much closer to my dream score. I took a practice RC passage from PT 148 after feeling stressed out about RC and I felt more confident than ever took a RC passage and my timing was a lot better. Usually I don't finish a lot of questions and guess but I only guessed at one without looking at the answer.

I don't know what happened. I'm taking the june lsat and had been scoring pretty well, -1 to -4 lr average and a little worse on rc, getting in the high 160s for preptests. last friday i got a low 160 on a preptest. i brushed it off as a fluke so i wouldnt worry myself, but i just got another low 160 today, and my sections have been -7 average...

did his happen to anyone else? i feel like it's not a nerves issue but idek anymore

Hi All, I'm new to 7stage LSAT. I'm also new to studying for the LSAT. As a result, my goal is to partner with like-minded individuals who can provide guidance and share ideas.

We just published this video on strengthening and weakening causal arguments: It'll be a good intro or refresher for our Logic of Causation Module!

@EricB7Sage

How are you guys able to stay focused through reading the passages, sometimes my attention dims by the end of the passage and either I reread 20 times or I just pick an answer just to pick one.

My delimma is I read half way through the passage, my eyes "look" at the remaining and by the time I get to the questions I skim through them and just kinda pick one without really knowing why, just vibes.

Its not like I'm not interested, I want to be able to answer the damn question, idk why I do this!

Does anyone else have this? If so, what has helped you?

I'm trying to decide if I should schedule my lsat online or in person. I want to take it in person bc I feel like that professional environment would help me lock in better/less complications overall. However, I can't focus if I hear anyone talk; I get distracted so easily. Do the noise cancelling headphones do anything/did you hear people talk?

Hi all,

Quick question. On the real August 2026 LSAT and beyond, will there be no more highlighting in the passage to specific parts of the question? As you can see below, this is what's been normal, and it seems like its no longer available on the new LawHub interface.

I hope you can see what I mean. If this feature will be on the real test, is it possible to add to 7Sage? It honestly is really helpful, especially for questions that ask what a certain word means when used in a specific context.

I have a pattern of getting qs wrong lately that I’m labeling as ‘forehead slap’, where I skim the stim, ACs, or relevant passage portion a tad too quickly, miss a crucial word, and pick wrong — then groan when I come back in blind review.

On the one hand, the easy solution is to go slower — read the stim very carefully, make sure read all ACs, etc.

But I’m struggling to find the balance between skimming enough to keep a good pace but preventing these ‘forehead slap’ mistakes. For context, I’m usually about right on time for both LR and RC, with a little wiggle room for reviewing + spending more time on harder qs, but definitely not enough to never skim.

Does anyone have any tips for this? Being judicious on what to skim within a q, which qs to skim more or less, keeping mental discipline when reading, etc.

For context, this is usually ~1-3 Qs a preptest (I’m averaging ~2-5 Qs wrong total, so this is a pretty high proportion)

thanks!!
