Any advice????

Hello, I just recently started studying for the lsat and am hoping to take the LSAT in February...

I started off at a 130 and am now at a 155 (which isn't the best I'm aware). throughout my time studying I found that i do better on preptests when I finish a question and then reveal the answer. also, I manage to do much better when i write every single thing out, but that takes a lot of time which i wont have during the real thing.

Has anyone gone through this? if so any advice would be great... my goal is to at least get a 170

Why do my drilling analytics (especially the drilling accuracy metric) only use questions I've "drilled" and not all of the questions I've answered throughout the core curriculum? Is there an advantage to this? And if not, is there a way for me to mass include all questions I answer in my drilling analytics without having to manually toggle on the below button for each individual question?

Okay I'm kind of new here. I did the intro test on this site. completed the 3 sections. IT said my score was "-X" and that's all. WTF does that mean. is that the total questions I got wrong? is that the amount of points deducted from a perfect score? there was absolutely no explanation or metric to understand exactly what that score means. can someone please advise?

When to start PTing

At what point should I start taking practice tests regularly? I'm currently on week 6 of studying, in the "theory" phase of my study plan. Thank you for any insight.

Underperformed on test day

Extremely frustrated! The LSAT has been a relatively long and stressful journey for me. My first 2 attempts I saw little improvement and scored in the mid 150s. But leading up to November, I was feeling great. My prep test range was 167-172! On test day, I felt fine not great. Nothing went especially wrong and I left the test feeling unsure but not like I melted down.

Got my score back and it was 159, just 2 points more than my last take and 8-13 points below my range. I clearly underperformed.

I’m now looking ahead to hopefully my last retake in January. Any advice on how to perform to my potential on test day? The biggest factor I can identify is taking it in person vs. replicating my PT experience remotely.

Anyone in San Antonio down to start an LSAT study group? I’m in the 160s right now, but totally open to people at any score level. Just want a consistent group to grind with.

the following is from a flaw question on seven sage...

Theorist: To be capable of planned locomotion, an organism must be able both to form an internal representation of its environment and to send messages to its muscles to control movements. Such an organism must therefore have a central nervous system. Thus, an organism incapable of planned locomotion does not have a central nervous system.

Correct Answer

  • a

    confuses a necessary condition for an organism's possessing a capacity with a sufficient one

My attempt to identify conditionals (May be False)

( Sufficient condition) be capable of planned locomotion. (Nessesary Condition indicated by must)

an organism must be able to both to form an internal representation of it's environment

and to send messages to its muscles to control movement.

but then what confuses me is what appears to be be another Necessary condition introduced in the subsequent sentence... "Such an organism must therefore have a central nervous system" again another must indicating what appears to be another Necessary condition. Then strangely the argument denys the antecedent aka the sufficient condition when it states " thus an organism incapable of planned locomotion, does not have a central nervous system.

I though confusing the sufficient and necessary condition is exactly like affirming the consequent

A>B

B

therefore A.

Logically valid structure

A>B

A

Therefore B..........

New Drill Screen Format?

Anyone else seeing this new format for drills and how they look? This screen makes no sense to me why it's suddenly so small surrounded by purple. Anyone else having this what I would assume to be issue? #help

I scored a 169 on November. I'm thinking it had something to do with RC. I average a low 170. I want to take it up to the mid 170s. How do I do this for January. Please help :)

I'm taking the April LSAT, hopefully the last one I take. My applications don't close until July 31st, for the Fall 2026 cycle. Seems late, but I figured I should still apply late instead of not at all. I know if seats are slimming down, my chances are lower, but besides that, does it mean anything else applying late? What if I apply, don't get in, and apply early addmison 2027? Will that look bad for admisson committees?

During PTs, I usually feel fine, but when I actually sat for the LSAT, my brain froze for a good 2-3 minutes, and I couldn't even figure out the first question.

Lsat practice scores decreasing

hey guys , i need advice/help. I am studying by myself no tutor, i did my first ever practice test end of August and got a 138 then the next test i did was in october which was 135 and then a week ago 133 and then on that last one i blind reviewed a 150. Today i took a practice test untimed and got a 139 and am going to wait a day to blind review. Is this a normal process for some? I also didnt get 7sage till a week ago and it has way more helpful tools then the book i was using. I notice when i take the test i get stuck with having 2-3 answer choices and on my blind review i would choose the other answer choice i was stuck between. How do i break the cycle of getting the right answer the first time? thanks

Hello internet people,

I just started using 7sage. I am super picky. I did a little research on reddit about what sources are good to use. I tried to read Loophole last night and I just couldn't get into it. Started using 7sage today and I really like it. Again, that is saying something because of how picky and skeptical I am. I liked the explanation of the Spanish question (the first question they give you). I got it wrong but after the explanation I was like, oh, this question isn't even hard now that I know how to think.

So, wanting to throw this out there and see what responses I get. Who is paying for 7sage? Is it worth it? So far I am doing everything for free but I'm going to keep using this and see how it goes for a bit.
