Looking to build a little stamina come test day and so took two 3-section PT's back to back this week, 6 sections in total. Has anyone else tried taking more than 4 sections in the same day and seen any improvement in their score because of it? What is the most sections you have taken back to back before?

hello,
I'm just here to vent. I started seriously studying for the LSAT in july of this past summer and took a diagnostic and after months off and scored a 139 on the diagnostic. Looking at the analytics of that PT it was an overall more challenging PT so I guess it makes sense. But despite doing literally everything right I am not improving at all. I'm a Canadian student and our applications are due nov 1 and i plan to take the october LSAT next week. However, I'm averaging a 149/150 and the highest I've scored in a timed PT is a 152. In an untimed test highest I've scored is a 156. My GPA is already considered pretty low so if I want to get into any law school it's dependent on my LSAT score. My original goal was a 158 or best case scenario a 160. But it seems like it's just not in my potential. I was planning on rewriting in January too but I don't think that'll help me chances as I already pushed it from August to October because in August my PTs were 147, 146, and 152 I thought I could realistically improve to a 158. It seems as though I can't do any better than 150 and Idk what to do about it. I've decided to apply to 1 law school in Ontario that doesn't have a minimum LSAT or GPA but its just devastating accepting the fact that I won't do better than I am now so matter how much time I give myself. For context I only have 1 class a week to finish my undergraduate degree and only work part time 3 days a week so I dedicate 2-5 hours of studying a day on LSAT prep.
Considering this is the case, should I even bother to write it in January or apply to the 1 school I have in mind and accept I'll be going to a school I don't particularly want to go to? Or should I just give up on law school and leave it be?
Thanks
Hi everyone!
I am taking the November LSAT & want to improve my score, but I am struggling between classes, work, and my internship this semester to find time to take multiple full-length practice tests per week. What do y'all recommend I should do instead? Drills? Videos? I'm open to all advice!!! Thank you!
Hello,
I am working a full time job at Goldman Sachs. Just graduated from UNC-Chapel Hill in May 2024. I hope to apply to law school in the 2026 cycle.
Since I am 1-2 years out of school. Any tips on: A) Who to ask for letter of recommendation? B) How to ask them? C) How much leniency law schools will give me about my LORs given that I am years out of school?
Thanks!

This morning was pretty devastating. I took the June LSAT without any studying and got a 161. Then I retook it in September after completing about 100 hours of studying and literally got a 162.
I felt like I really saw improvements in my understanding and application. So is this the best I can do?
Hey guys, how long do you guys spend when learning a section of LR. I feel like I take weeks learning a new topic before moving on to the next one. Any tips will help? Crying here at Starbucks while trying to study. I feel like I am taking way too long to understand something. Thanks!!
For example, to understand RRE questions, its taking me like 3 weeks and counting.

The test dates say November 6-9. I haven't registered yet. How do I make sure that I will be taking the test on 9th. I am planning to take it remotely. Do they assign you to a date? Or you can choose your date and time for remote test?
Hi, I am having a really hard time understanding the set up for the drills. Is there an easier more user friendly interface ? Can the drills be randomized ?
I just got my results for my September LSAT and I scored lowered than I had on the practice exams. I was scoring in the high 160s prior to the exam and I got a 159 on the official LSAT. I stopped studying after I took my LSAT to continue my job and prepare for school. Would it be too difficult and short of time to take the November LSAT? I will also be attending school and I would only have one month to prepare. With attending school, I am slightly concerned my studying may conflict with studying for my midterms. I want to get my applications out early so I am worried if I take a later LSAT, my chances will deter. I am also planning to graduate this year, so would it be better I take a gap year? I am also concerned I will not be able to fill up the time during the gap year. Overall, I am just looking for some advice regarding if taking the November LSAT seems feasible in my condition. Thank you!
Note: you can register for today's session here.
Hey 7Sagers,
The September score release has arrived. Once you receive a score, it can be difficult to determine exactly how it fits into your law school aspirations- especially when you're on the fence about cancelling!
We'll be featuring a free session led by one of our Admissions Consultants to help you interpret your score on two different dates:
🍪 These classes are open to all users.
⚠️ You must register in advance.
I just got my September score back and I am hoping to increase my score by 10 points by the November LSAT. Does anyone have any advice on how to study short term?
I was wondering if anyone here has dyslexia? I have pretty bad dyslexia. Whenever I read words begin to look like mush and my brain can’t process words the same way someone without dyslexia can. I was wondering if anyone here has dyslexia and if there is anything you do / take that helps with it.

Hey guys, I'm loosely following the LSAT Trainer's scheduled recommendations for PTs and Drill Set. I know I can take the Drill Sets on LawHub, but I would prefer to have my metrics recorded on 7sage for later analysis. I understand that I can generate new Drill Sets on 7sage, but is there any way I can take the LawHub drill sets on 7sage as well?
Hi everyone,
I took PT 123 last night and noticed that all the passages were in the 1-2 difficulty range. I received a good score on the test, but now I am wondering if it is a little inflated? This would be a 5 point improvement since my last PT 3 weeks ago, so I also think I could have just got better.
Is this not a concern because of how the conversion works?
TIA!
Taking the October LSAT here in a week. Nervous, like most, but I am confident in the time and work I have put in. Five of my six PTs are at or above my goal score so I'm just hoping for consistency.
I actually feel pretty comfortable with LR at this point. Not too surprising considering how great the new curriculum is and how long it spends going over every question type. RC is a totally different story. If they are easier passages I can score as well as a - 3, but more often than not I am struggling to finish all four passages and ending up anywhere from -7 to -12. I will try working on that this week by just drilling as much as I can.
According to analytics, a huge area of emphasis for me is implied questions. Maybe it's easily explainable due to me consistently not finishing passages, but any advice/tips are greatly appreciated considering how frequently these question types come up on the test.
P.S. If you are taking the October LSAT, good luck! Just apply what you have learned and see where it takes you. Don't let this test take control of you, even if you start off with a rocky section. You CAN bounce back.
Does anyone have an experience of testing in-person with ADHD accommodations (i.e. extra time)? I am worried I will get to testing center and somehow my test will not have accommodations or the proctor won't be aware if that makes sense
Dear all,
I had planned to take the October test, but my score was not good enough, so I withdrew my October test and am now preparing for the January one. I hope I have more time to figure out the test.
But is it too late to apply to well-ranked law schools after the January test?
Thanks a lot for the help!
i am tired. overworked. burnt out. my test is oct 4, but i think i need to slow down before i sit for it. i study constantly, after working a full time job, every single minute i have i try and study. i have reached a point where i am feeling tired, frustruated, and i feel like i am hitting a wall. any advice? i do not want this to impact my oct test, i feel like i need to pump the breaks before my test bc i am watching my confidence slip away and i am doing things on autopilot.
Hi all,
I started studying this summer with like 15-20 hours a week just doing core curriculum, no PT. I was really starting to improve. After I started taking PT, my scores were stuck at a 154. I am not sure if I should redo the complete curriculum because I have time, however, it has been immaculately frustrating as I worked my butt off this summer. I wasn't doing the read review method during my drills, and I'm not sure if that is why. Any suggestions?
Maybe the studying is finally working!! I finally reached 154 after getting in the high 140s on my past PTS. Hoping to make it to 160 by November LSAT. Please send good energy!!
Hi everyone! I am hoping to find people to study with who are aiming for 173+ in the upcoming exams! I have finished the 7Sage curriculum, and I am PT-ing in 160mid-160high. I’m looking for people who would also love to break the plateau and unlock the next level. My intention is that we take the same PTs - once/twice a week - and get together once a week (in-person is best; many nice public libraries in the city but Zoom could also work.) We will discuss questions we are getting wrong and our thought processes. We can dissect based on question type and discuss why some answer choices are correct/wrong. I’ve been told this is a great way to learn - that you’re able to teach someone else your mistakes. We also welcome other methods that would be helpful in a group discussion setting!
If you’re in a similar mindset, please add me on discord: @redlittlefruit
You can also drop your preferred social media/contact below and i can try to add you.
Good luck studying everyone!!!
Hello peeps, I will be taking LSAT in January. I have been struggling with RC. I am mostly getting -16 to anywhere -20 and I am finding it difficult to improve on it. Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
