I haven't been scoring the best on my real LSATs but my PTs have been in the upper 150s (old format). My target score is a 155 on the LSAT, and I want to apply this fall for the 2025 cycle.

I haven't been able to break into the 150s on the real LSAT yet but that's another discussion. My hope being to apply this fall and achieve a score of 155+, is taking the test in October as opposed to September more of a gamble?

I feel that more time to study could be beneficial but does that outweigh the impacts of applying slightly later in the cycle as opposed to applying at the start? Taking October also leaves less time to test again if my score isn't ideal.

Prior to using 7sage I used khan academy. I recieved a 154 on my first ever test in Feb 2024 (with logic games). After studying for a month I took the exam again in March and recieved a 160. After that I decided to wait until May and then begin going through the 7sage curriculum. Today (June 30th) I took my first test since March after doing all of the cc and most of LR and I received a 161. I am incredibly discouraged and don't know what I am doing wrong. Has anyone else had this experience?

i am looking for a copy of this book if anyone is willing to part with theirs or have a pdf!

Hello fellow Sagers!

My heart and soul are bursting with joy and pride to write this post and I want to publicly thank 7Sage so much for what it has given me and how much it has helped me achieve. As the title goes I achieved an excellent score on the June administration of the test. Originally I was going to wait to post something like this until I had my marching orders as to what school I would (hopefully) be attending (and I think I will end up writing another proper endorsement on a more public forum when that happens), but I am just so happy and I think the efforts of the 7Sage team deserve to be shouted out right now, and that the rest of the community can always use more examples showing that this kind of thing is possible. This mountain can be summitted, this dragon can be slain, by anyone!

@Albert Gauthier (who I can't properly tag here) was my tutor for a brief 6 weeks and the strategies and study plans he formulated for me helped guide my journey long after our time was up. Furthermore, he made me feel like he genuinely believed in my ability and potential which was essential to my final score.

In my opinion, 7Sage is the real deal, and my improvement is the proof. For all of you soldiers out there in the trenches fighting the darkest days of your own personal battle against the LSAT, please take heart that you are in great hands and all the tools you need for success are right here for the taking.

If anyone has any questions for me please feel free to DM me or ask them here, I would be happy to lend any insight.

Hello,

does anyone want to be in a study group together?

I figure it will be helpful and motivating as well as holding each other accountable.

Send me a message with the word" Study Group"and your phone number and i will form a chat on whatsapp!

Hello,

I am taking the test in September, but I am not sure if I should take an older or newer PT.

What are the general recommendations when it comes to taking PT?

I recently finished all the lessons for the course. I took my first prep test today and got a 155 after blind review (153 before BR). How does score range in comparison? Is it roughly about average for first time takers? Trying to get a gauge on how I should feel about this.

What one on one tutors have people worked with and found to be effective? I feel like I have maximized everything and I just don't feel like I'm progressing. I'm nervous I won't hit 175 by August exam. Pls help.

On my first prep test about a week into the LR Core Cirriculum, I scored a 153. I felt as though this was an excellent starting point in regard to my goal of at least 160. I have since completed the CC, and took another prep test today. I scored a 156. Though an improvement nonetheless, it feels as though perhaps I wasn't studying correctly/intensely enough. I was wondering if it is normal to see more of a jump once you start consistently drilling AFTER the CC as opposed to completing the CC alone. Just wondering if I need to do anything before jumping into drilling + prep tests alone in addition to the CC to see more progress.

Thanks !! :)

I swear I remember learning in one of the lessons that the lawgic if A then B and C can be rewritten as if A and B then C and vise versa but I can't find that lesson anywhere and am not sure if I just made that rule up in my head. Is this lawgic logical?

Hello everyone,

For those that have had reasonably good results on their PT’s, I’d like to know how you go about annotating each question stem/prompt. No matter the stem in LR, do you always identify the premises, minor-conclusions and major conclusions with its supporting evidence?

I have problems identifying if some prompts contain only premises or context sentences, like type-2 MC question stems.

Maybe I don’t have the muscle memory to quickly figure out if something from 4 sentences ago supports a sentence I am currently reading. Any insight into this topic will definitely help me!

My account seems to be glitched or whatever. I have lawhub advantage, but only recently (yesterday) the red popup indicating that Ive only linked lawhub account began. What makes it more peculiar is that I have been doing drills and whatnot for a week or two. Please Help? Ive even clicked the hyperlink and re-signed in.

Hello! Wondering if anyone can offer some insight on where the textual basis is for the correct answer "B." I selected "C" as the answer with the assumption that comments about racism by a Communist Party Organizer would implicitly attack white chauvinism and also denote some sort of involvement in African American issue politics. I was not convinced that this was direct enough evidence, so am open to answer B but am curious where the direct support lies. Is the support the "cautiousness" and desire to appeal to moderates referred to by the author? Thank you for the help!

Hello everyone,

Can any of you give me your input if you have made the switch from PowerScore to 7sage?

I have been using Powerscore on a consistent basis since July 2022. I have taken their full course 3 times, 2 while working FT and this last time I quit my job to study FT for the LSAT, I also hired a tutor with powerscore (didn't seem to make a difference). I love their fundamentals and the way they explain things. However, I took the LSAT 2 times and both scores were the same. There is another issue that I was having as PowerScore does not have PT explanations as 7sage does, they only have a forum where one has to ask questions. I have spent so much money and invested so much time with Powerscore and thinking this is not really working for me and need to look at other platforms. Just looking for insight if anyone here has made that switch and their results? Thanks in advance! :)

Hey hey - is there anyone in the Boston area who needs an accountability partner/study buddy? I'm currently in the Upper 140s/150 range and would be happy to connect.

I've been studying since April 2024, and I haven't been able to move my score out of the 150s. I feel like I've tried multiple different techniques for studying and none of them seem to be working for me. Does anyone have any suggestions regarding how they broke the pattern of not making solid improvement?

Does anyone have any tips or pointers that they have found useful for Law passages in RC? I find that when I read slow enough I can get all questions correct, it is when I start increasing speed I am misunderstanding. I know I can't be the only one with this issue LOL so any advice would be super helpful!!

Let me preface this by saying I know I should be using official questions, but I bought this book in a rush for a trip where I wouldn't have great internet (powerscore books haven't arrived yet). My thoughts on the question at the bottom so as to not influence anyone before reading.

Despite five consecutive years in which global consumption of grain has been greater than global production, it is unlikely that the world is facing a near-term crisis in the food supply. The average shortfalls have been mainly due to reduced output from farms in China, which is moving from a policy of central control over agricultural production to a more market-driven model. Therefore, if demand for grain continues to fall short of supply, Chinese production of grain should increase dramatically. Which one of the following principles most helps to justify this reasoning?

A. Global markets respond more slowly than regional markets, so local rates of production usually change more rapidly than the global average.

B. When agricultural production is centrally controlled, it is unable to respond to changing demand by adjusting rates of supply.

C. Average shortfalls are most readily remedied by local increases in production.

D. When agricultural production is market-driven, it is likely to respond to rising demand by increasing production.

E. Centrally controlled agricultural production has been shown to be more inefficient than market-driven models.

Explanation:

Correct Answer: D

When agricultural production is market-driven, it is likely to respond to rising demand by increasing production.

The speaker concludes that Chinese production will rise if demand requires it based on the premise that Chinese production is now market-driven. Clearly the author connects market-driven methods with matching supply and demand. Choice A isn't right because it isn't actually about the difference between global and regional markets but about China's transformation to a market economy. Choice B doesn't justify the conclusion but explains how things worked under China's older system. Choice C is wrong because the speaker isn't talking about local production. Choice D looks like the right answer. The speaker bases his conclusion on the principle that a market economy will respond to increased demand with increased production. Choice E isn't right. The speaker doesn't mention inefficiency or even compare a market-driven system to a centrally regulated one; he's only interested in the effects of China's transition between the two. Choice D is the best answer.

I think they swapped the words supply and demand in the conclusion and that it should read "Therefore, if supply for grain continues to fall short of demand, Chinese production of grain should increase dramatically." I know questions don't have to reflect reality, but this isn't even internally consistent. Continues should refer to the situation presented in the first sentence, but the first sentence clearly says that consumption (demand) is greater than production (supply). And the first line of the explanation also clearly says "The speaker concludes that Chinese production will rise if demand requires it", and demand would only require it if demand were greater than supply.

Thoughts?

Hello everyone.

Can someone explain to me why the answer that is most strongly supported is E?

I even watched the video and it totally seems like an assumption. In no way does the prompt lead one to believe that artificial fibers are straight in their original state, even if shirts made with artificial fibers do not shrink under hot water.

So I do not see how one could infer that since the process of straightening or shrinking does not happen to polyester, that it was naturally straight. It could be the case that Polyester isn't naturally straight, but that it also does not shrink under hot water.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Hi all,

Today, at 2pm ET we noticed that Lessons and You Trys on the Syllabus were broken. As of 2:25pm, the problem has been fixed.

We are still investigating what led to this error.

In the meantime, please let us know if you're continuing to experience usage issues.

My apologies about the outage!

404 error? Why is it happening

Can someone explain why A is correct? Paragraph 2 of the passage seems to indicate that there physicists can distinguish between the emission of thermal radiation and reflection, which is why A is confusing because it says it's hard to distinguish between the two.

I'm getting an error now too!

Hello! I have been using the drills, you trys, and other practice materials smoothly for the past few months of my studies. However, this morning all my access to these materials was lost? When I try to click on past questions I've completed, I can't even look at them. Did the subscription offerings change? Those were great study tools. sorry if this is a dumb question

My study videos keep saying 404 error page not found…is this happening to anyone else and do you know how to fix it?
