Hi all.
I have some contradictory info on how to tackle RC, at least with jargon-heavy medical passages, so I need advice.
First, generally, I enjoy RC because the passages are interesting, science in particular. And I try to apply the method: being aware of the tone, structure, viewpoints and such. But medical passages with upwards of 5 unfamiliar terms are a lost cause: I can't remember what I read because I don't understand anything and even if I try to simplify it by assigning letters to each term I still can't remember it because there's too many terms that I don't understand. So the "careful reading" advice doesn't work for me here. I can read something in another language carefully but I still won't understand it because it's in a foreign language.
When I try to simply scan over the jargon and remember where stuff is so I can go back to it, and I use elimination, I get an average of 1-2 wrong answers on 7-8 questions untimed, but timed is a disaster.
Does any of you who have my problem have a strategy you have developed to score high when timed, without actually understanding anything? 😂 Do tell. 😊
Hi everyone! Im realizing that im struggling quite a bit with RC. ive gone through the core curriculum and read and watched videos, so im familiar with the typical strategies employed when doing RC but I cant seem to actually implement it. when the passage is more difficult, i find it really hard to focus on the structure and whos arguing what. also, im not sure if its just me, but i dont feel like low res summaries really help me, they just eat up my time. any advice would be great, thank you!
Hello! I am looking for private, virtual tutoring from June-August. I am signed up to take the June LSAT but already know I will be retaking it in August to try to get my best score. I am currently PTing at 159, and my goal score is a 165 for August. I have already completed most of the lesson library here on 7sage and have taken 5-7 PTs total between March and now.
I am having a hard time breaking into the 160s, but I am really committed to getting at least a 165 in August and am able to put a lot of time into it this summer. It would be most beneficial for me to walk through my PTs after taking them, review them, and have a unique perspective that can hopefully get me to that goal score.
In terms of pricing, I am hoping for budget-friendly options and ideally a first free session to see if we are a good fit!
Thank you!
Need to do this ASAP, but can't seem to do this at all. I'm getting to all the questions but no time left over to go back to them. No discernible patterns (at all) in what I'm getting wrong.
Hello !!
I am looking for study and accountability partners. This can be virtual or in person! My target date is August / September. If interested, please let me know.
I plan to take the LSAT this September for the 2027 cycle. I started with a 138 diagnostics score about three weeks ago and i'm around a 145-150 right now. However, every time I sit down to study, I have no idea If i'm being effective with my time.
I will start drilling untimed for about thirty minutes to warm up, then move to a timed section where I review the answers I got wrong. This goes on for about two to three hours until I realize my brain is fried and i'm just reading words and not comprehending anything.
I was just wondering if anyone had any ideas to help make my time studying more efficient. Any advice is appreciated, Thanks (:
I started really studying in March, and I just finished all of the lessons that 7Sage creates for you. My diagnostic was a 144 in January with no studying, and I am taking August. Do you think I should do a practice block drill first or should I take a test and see how much I have improved from just the lessons alone?
It’s hard because I have kind of a busy schedule. There was some weeks where I couldn’t study for multiple days at a time and some days where I did multiple days at once to try to balance it out. Doing the practice blocks I probably will not finish them all within the week like suggested. My goal is a 168+.
Any and all suggestions would be appreciated!
I scored 100% on BR and would always get all the questions I answered before the time elapsed. It appears that timing is my greatest challenge. How can I possibly overcome this challenge?
Hi y’all! I’ve had a 7Sage account for a while but only recently started looking into it seriously. I’ve taken the LSAT three times, with my highest score being 140. I used Princeton Review before, took a break from studying, and now I’m working with a tutor who uses a separate platform.
Lately, though, I feel completely burnt out. I work full time, try to study after work and on weekends, but I’ve been dealing with stress at home and I’ve really lost my discipline. My recent prep test score dropped, and honestly it hit me pretty hard.
I spoke with a law student who said 7Sage helped her a lot, especially with structure and understanding the test. The problem is I’ve already spent so much on tutoring, and my tutor wants me taking a prep test every week, which is starting to feel exhausting and unsustainable for me.
Now I’m debating whether I should invest in 7Sage, stick to the free resources for now, or just keep going with my tutor. I’m also really interested in study groups and accountability because I think consistency is my biggest struggle right now. The 7Sage package with accountability emails definitely caught my attention.
I haven’t lost hope but I’m also aiming for 160 -166 is this possible for me?
For anyone who’s used 7Sage or struggled with burnout, distractions, or discipline while working full time — what helped you? Any advice on realistic study plans, staying consistent, or avoiding burnout would mean a lot. I’m all ears, thank you!
Hello! I am a (2021) 172 scorer and (2024) Wash U St. Louis JD graduate looking for new students. I offer flexible hours and personalized plans. 7sage is the service I used those years ago to improve my score from the low 150s to the 170s! My tutoring philosophy stays consistent with the lessons taught by 7sage, filtering them through the lens of your personal idiosyncrasies: strengths and weaknesses. I have been an independent tutor since late Fall 2025, and I absolutely love helping students reach far beyond their ceiling. Consultations are free (limited to 1 hour) via Google Meet or phone, and I can meet as early as today. Please DM me if you are interested!
Hello everyone :)
I’m currently signed up for the August LSAT and am looking for a tutor with some flexibility in the evenings. My budget is around $40–$50 per hour. I’m looking for someone who can make the most of our live sessions, since I work 3 days out of the week. I’d especially like help with conditionals, and necessary vs. sufficient distinctions, and flaw questions. I'd love some tips with diagramming as well.
I’m currently PTing in the low to mid 150s and am hoping to reach the low 170s.
Please let me know if you’d be available.
Thank you so much everyone!
Saw an old posting that recorded sessions from live classes are in this link: https://classic.7sage.com/live-class-archive/ Anyone know if I can watch recorded live classes somewhere? If so, can you share the link?
Hi everyone,
I’m currently signed up for the August LSAT and am looking for a tutor. Ideally, I’m hoping to find a Canadian tutor with some flexibility in the evenings. My budget is around $40–$50 CAD per hour. I’m looking for a tutor who can make the most of our live sessions. I work full-time and am looking for some skill training as well as help with conditionals and necessary/sufficient distinctions. Some diagramming and homework would be lovely as well! I am currently Pt low 150, and am hoping to get up to high 160's/low 170's.
Please let me know if you’d be available for a quick 15-minute intro meeting!
Thank you so much everyone!
Hello everyone!
I've recently started studying (about 2 weeks now) for the LSAT. I'm hoping to take it early next year so I wanted to get a head start during the summer.
I've been studying for about 2 to 4 hours a day with the comprehensive foundations lessons, but I've been falling behind recently. It's been difficult to keep up the consistent motivation because I found it to be quite a lot - already burnt out possibly (I hope not).
Are there any tips to maintain a good, motivated study schedule that can persist not only through the summer but throughout the academic year as well?
Thanks everyone!
Hi all!
I’m looking to start working with an LSAT tutor as soon as possible to help me maximize my score over the next two months. I’m set on taking the August LSAT, hence the timeline. I've been self-studying, have a grasp of the basics, and am currently PTing in the 150s. Goal is to get as close as we can to 16high/17low.
I’d be grateful to connect with any tutors who might be a good fit. Please feel free to DM me!
2 fit considerations, in case it's helpful:
— I’m looking for a tutor who can make the most of our live sessions. I work full-time and support several other organizations, so my schedule is ridiculously tight. Ideally, we would balance learning and drilling during our calls and keep homework as close to near 0.
— I’m a T1 fee waiver recipient, so budget-friendly options would be especially appreciated!
Thank you!
Hello,
I am looking for a study partner who is able to study after 5pm weekdays. I am hoping to study together at least once a week, which we can do via zoom or discord!
Looking for a study partner who has done PT 147 and wants to work through it together. I learn so much more hearing/giving explanations with someone rather than just making notes of my wrong answers. 6pm EST onwards tonight would be perfect!
I have been graduated from college for a year now, headed into my second. I can not say that I have maintained any strong relationships with professors due to the fact that I almost always was at work. I would come to class and head straight to work. However, I did work for the Office of Admissions at my university and fostered really great connections with my supervisors.
My question is, would it be better to get a letter of recommendation from someone at my on-campus job, my job/internship at the law firm I currently work at, a past employer, my current mentor, or still try and obtain a professor's letter of recommendation.
I have really close personal/professional relationships with the above (minus the professor) and would love thoughts! Thanks!
I have found that a lot of the LR questions that I get wrong are the result of picking the wrong of two choices. I'm able to narrow the answer choices down to the two most popular choices, but I often end up picking the wrong of the two answers and then getting it right on the blind review. Any tips for picking the right answer when I have it narrowed down already?
I'm currently trying to review a RC passage for a PT I took, but I don't see the passage explanation being available? I saw it earlier somehow for a different passage, is there any way to access passage explanation specifically and not just question explanations?
Specifically the one I'm looking at is PT123.S4.P4
Currently just reached the end of the arguments module within my study plan and began the grammar portion. That said, I just did the adaptive drill mixed questions, and did good I suppose on my first run at it getting 3/5, however, I did it two more times and did absolutely horrible. I feel I'm having difficulties identifying Premise's and Conclusions. Either this or I'm not understanding what the question is asking me, I'm trying to best figure out what to do cause I feel like I'm stuck lol.
Should I attend a Office Hours session and ask my questions, even though I don't know what to exactly ask, or what should I do. Truly I'm looking for guidance as the foundations and maybe I missed this didn't really touch on the particular questions and how to dissect them.
Thanks,
Nikkolas
I don't want to spam here, so I share this every few months or so. :)
I'll keep it short this time too 😅 Here is the link to the LSAT discord I moderate 💙
Hopefully I continue having people who wish to help other's learning in a positive way.
all LSAT scores welcomed!
free of ads and promotions (to avoid scams and keep learning accessible)
resources and chats for LR and RC help.
Daily LR everyday at 5PM PST / 8PM EST
I'm also doing my best to keep the server friendly but am grateful that folks in the discord have been doing their best to help facilitate this space to be this way.
It's named "California LSAT" as I originally wanted to have people in PST time zone, but everyone here is welcomed to join ✨💙
Thanks y'all!
Hello! I am taking the June LSAT and received an email yesterday about the writing portion opening and how to access it. I have been told by many people to not do the writing portion until after taking the multiple choice exam. I know that LSAC won't release scores until the writing has been submitted. How long after the multiple choice exam window is the writing open for?
Not sure if this is a bug, but the chat "header" disappears when scrolling down to the most recent chat. I am having to scroll back up to go click on "Back to chats".
Here's a screenshot from my message with AI Coach and as you can see the header for the chat is gone. I can't go back to my "Your Chats" section with all chats available, unless I scroll up to the very top.
I noticed this this morning when I was going through my chats, so I think it's a bug?
