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.

how to study?

how did you guys use 7sage? finish the study schedule 1st? or mix everything up ( study schedule + classes+ practice+ drill). Any advice?

Our hearts go out to everyone impacted by the devastating wildfires in Los Angeles. We know many of our students may be affected, and we at 7Sage want to help.

We are currently considering how to best support our students during this challenging time. If you've been affected, please fill out this form: https://coda.io/form/Form-for-LA-students_d9kD52WAqIc

We will share more information in the coming days. Our thoughts are with our Los Angeles based students and the rest of the LA community. We're committed to helping where we can.

I've really been afraid of having a tutor because I feel like it often comes off as super stiff and formal. Glad to have been paired with someone SUPER invested in my success that I also completely vibed with. I'd def recc if you're looking for more personalized studying!!

Hi everyone,

I've been studying off and on for a couple of years now, but only seriously started studying for the LSAT with the 7Sage curriculum back in August. After some health issues and a lower than expected LSAT score in November, I've decided to to aim for the 2025 admission cycle. That said, I'm picking studying back up this week and wanted to know what you would all suggest.

I worked through the 7Sage curriculum in the past in a bit of a hurry and it clearly showed. For now, my plan is to get through the LSAT Loophole for a new perspective, then pick up the 7Sage curriculum again to brush up on the areas that I really didn't understand the first time around.

My plan is to retest in June and possibly one last time in August if necessary, and I'm hoping for about a 10 point jump.

I'd appreciate any and all advice as I pick up this tiring (but surely worth it) journey again!

Hi everyone-newbie here and I have been in the workforce for the last 15 years (completed Master's Degree 10 years ago), so asking for an academic letter of recommendation does not seem like the most reasonable path. I have non-academic professionals who are happy to assist, but I do not know where their focus should lie within the letters. Work Ethic, Emotional Intelligence, General Intelligence, Ambition....the list goes on and on. Any advice on what a letter from a professional should look like to help my admission into Law School?

Hello,

So I wrote my test in Oct and scored a 152 and then signed up for the Jan one. Around November I started taking it seriously and in the PTs 130-140s I was consistently scoring 156-158 and BR 161-163 which was improving my confidence. However once I started the PT150s my score in every section plummeted. For RC my average per section was -9 pretty consistently where my LR averaged between -7 and -9 BRing my LR around -4 and -6 per section. I took 153 and scored a 158. 154 scored 156 and just took 156 and scored a 151.

I write the LSAT in legit 4 days and now I'm panicking cuz the RCs in the 150s are so much harder than I thought and RC was my biggest issue and bringing it down to -9 was a fight.

Essentially my question is, because the 150s are closest to the modern tests, should I expect my score to between 151 and 153? What should I do? I feel like I'm out of time.

  • Can someone please give a quick overview of how live classes are run?
  • Are there multiple live classes held each day, 7 days a week?
  • If I buy Core first, will I be able to upgrade to Live during the month and pay the difference for the upgrade? Or will I have to start a new separate subscription for Live, therefore having an overlap of two subscriptions (Core and Live)?

    Hey I am trying to decide whether to subscribe to 7sage. I am taking the lsat in 3 months and have been using powerscore, I see some improvement but not a lot because it's not personalized. What are your guys' thoughts?

    It's January test week. This is your opportunity to shine and show those law schools what you are made of. You are doing something that many people are not willing to do. You are taking a very difficult and important exam, so be proud of how much you have achieved thus far. I am nervous, I am sure you are nervous, but think of it as just another test. Do not let the pressure get to you. Block out all of the emotion and act like it's just another test. Forget the person proctoring you, watching you closely, you made it this far and you will do just fine. I have faith in you. Do not forget that a number does not define you. Don't let it define you. Whether it is your first LSAT or your fifth, prepare for that test with a positive mindset and press the submit button with pride, because on February 5th when January scores come out, you will get the score you were hoping for. Good luck everybody. YOU GOT THIS!!!

    Hi everyone! I saw online yesterday that you need an external camera if you are taking the test remotely, I'm confused by this and want to see if anyone that has taken it at home can speak on this since it will be my first time. I was planning on testing on my macbook that has the built in camera, is this not allowed?

    Hi all,

    I am looking for people who would like to meet up 2-3 times a week to study and review. I am currently aiming for the June LSAT and looking to jump from the 150's to 170 by June. I am Pacific Time and can meet any time in the afternoon/evening. Let me know and we can set up a discord or something.

    I was listening to a 7Sage podcast (I believe #44) and they spoke about using flashcards while studying the CC. I was wondering what I would use flashcards for and what I would put on them to help me with the LSAT. I'm going through the CC foundations right now and plan to take the LSAT in 2027, so I'm just at the start of my prep. Thanks so much :)

    The LSAC applications ask for a list of "all educational institutions attended." I've taken a number of one-off classes at nearby colleges, some of which didn't count as college courses -- for instance, I participated in a six-week course about the publishing industry at Columbia (we didn't have grades and did little actual work) and did a six-month programming bridge course at NYU Tandon (lots of work, but the class was technically not accredited). Should I list "Columbia" and "NYU" as institutions attended? I don't want to imply that I got college credits from them.

    Hello everyone, I'm trying to study sections based on the Powerscore Webinar recommendations. In the recommendations they refer to 'PT155 LRII' PT 155 has three LR sections, and the first one is expermintal. Does anyone know if they are referring to S2 or S4 of PT 155, given that S1 is expermintal and S3 is RC?

    Lawgic

    I am almost through the foundations section of the 7Sage curriculum. I do not understand lawgic and I am disappointed in myself. I decently understand it, however when we put it all together to draw valid conclusions, I get lost. Is this normal? Should I move on to the logical reasoning section or relearn everything in foundations?

    Seeing incorrect marks and red marks just feels so negative. How do you not let this get to your head? How do you remain positive when it seems like you can't? I'm starting to feel like I should give up on going to law school.

    Hi. I am planning on taking the LSAT this June of 2025. I might retake the August 2025 LSAT exam if they offer it then. I am looking to start an LSAT study group in NYC. We can meet in person in Brooklyn or Manhattan or just do most of the work online by Zoom. I plan to take 1-2 tests each week and blind review them. I live in Brooklyn Heights. Contact me on here with your contact information. Thanks!
