Title, I feel like I can read questions better in that font and size. My eyes are great and the bigger font size makes passages seem more intimidating.

Hey!
For the life of me, I cannot understand the level 5 difficulty questions for PSA. I can get the lower and medium difficulty questions correct, but it seems like the higher difficulty just isn't clicking. Does anyone have any tips or mental strategies for how they approach difficult PSA questions? I think I'm getting lost in the answers (and I believe my most common mistake is confusing sufficiency/necessity language even though I'll have it diagrammed properly!!)
Just curious about people’s experience with score improvement between a cold diagnostic and their first practice test. I took an essentially cold diagnostic after completing only the foundations section of the curriculum. Did people who have done that see any score improvement on their first practice test right after completing the dedicated RC and LR curriculum sections? If so how much?
Or will improvement only come with practice tests and drilling? Any info is great just curious what others experiences were.
Hi! I just took the LSAT in September and am planning to retake the exam in November. I received my score and score band back, but was wondering if it was possible to see the questions we got wrong from the exam after taking it? I would love to review what I got wrong on the exam but haven't seen anything on my portal that would allow me to see my raw score and questions. Thanks for your help!
Hello!
I have been PTing at 150 for the past 3 months despite studying an average of 4 hours a day drilling specific question types, doing sections of LR and RC and then blind reviewing every question and then inserting them into my wrong answer journal. Recently I took a completely untimed PT where I allowed myself to think through each question and didn't move on until I was 100% sure the AC I picked was correct. On that PT I scored the highest I've ever scored a 156, however I know I can do better, but I'm taking the October LSAT. It's clear that extra time would be extremely beneficial to me as especially with RC I need to take longer on the passages in order to understand what is being said.
Does anyone have any time strategy suggestions that can hopefully help me actually score closer to my potential by October? Or should I just accept that I will most likely score a 150 and retake it in January?
Thank you!
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?
Hi all! Is there anywhere/how I can print my custom study schedule?
Thanks in Advance
Hey guys!
Since they are getting rid of LG come August 2024, they are completely revamping the logic reasoning questions. They will be much tougher, and some of the questions will have hints of LG in them too. I just took the February 2024 lsat, and much of the Logic reasoning games were way tougher than anything I have ever experienced, in terms of LR. January 2024, and my february 2024 test takers seem to concur with this.
All of that being said, how should we go about studying for these revamped Logic reasoning questions? Does the 7sage V2 already have us covered? Does the V2 already have study materials for this evolved version of LR??
The LR question I seem to have the most trouble with are easy to moderately challenging RRE questions. Like seriously I've gotten 25/26 on a section and the only one wrong was an RRE that 95% of student got correct. This problem may itself be a paradox I need help resolving.
I'm not sure how to fix this, so I'm going to share some of my thought process and if any of you have suggestions that would be useful.
One problem I got that threw me for a loop was
Cat's spend much of their time sleeping, they seem only to awake to stretch and yawn. Yet they have strong agile musculature that most animals would have to exercise strenuously to acquire.
My first thought is that there is obviously a biological difference in cats that allows them to be muscular without exercising much.
I saw the correct answer, "Cats get ample exercise from frequent stretching." and immediately I thought this in no way addresses my problem. No matter how much exercise they're getting from stretching would anyone ever classify stretching as strenuous? Not unless they're in a yoga class. That seems to be a huge assumption. That's an equivocation, stretching does not equal strenuous and it misses my resolution that cats are biologically different.
I then didn't really like any of the answer choices, and settled on a wrong one that felt less wrong because it somewhat addressed my kind of biological developmental need idea, "Cats require strength and agility to be effective predators." and I hemmed and hawed because what if all animals require this strength and agility?
Point being is I'm trying to develop a better way to think about these that allows the correct answer to always stand out more, and am open to any suggestions if anyone has them.
Hi everyone,
I'm just looking for some advice for an optimal study schedule. Any tips are appreciated.
Please keep in mind i currently work full time and have a 2 year old toddler.
Thanks in advance,
Lily
Hi, so I was wondering if someone could tell me the difference between pseudo sufficient assumption - find the rule, questions versus principle questions? and if you can tell me how you identify the question type from one another please??
Thankyouuu in advance!.

Anyone down to go over PT 152 Section 1 #14-25 ish today? Or if you wanna join my discord group here's the link: https://discord.gg/jrVHpuGb
Let's get this bread
For the past two drills, every time I select an answer choice for the last question in the drill set, it doesn't save. So when I go to Blind Review, it appears as unanswered. #help
I have been studying since June full time and have been doing pretty well. My highest PT which was only about 3 weeks ago was a 160 which is what I am aiming to get for the real thing. However I am now seeing a huge decline in my scores and I am getting -8 and -11 on sections that I typically get -5. I am getting really stressed and discouraged considering the October test is in 2 weeks. I am also registered for November so i just don't know what I'm doing wrong and what to do about it now. Also , is it bad that I am going to take october and november back to back? Should i change my october test date to november and then take november and january instead? im getting overwhelmed.
Hey 7Sage fam,
I just finished the core curriculum, and it felt like a big accomplishment! It took me three months, and things were starting to click in the lessons and drills. Then yesterday I started taking on some real sections, only to do considerably worse than before I started studying three months ago. Before studying at all, I was getting -6-7ish on LR sections, and now I'm at almost double that...help! Is this normal? What am I doing wrong? I really hope this is normal and I didn't waste 3 important months of study time :(
Currently studying full-time so my schedule is open and free. Just started studying a few weeks ago. I have an LSAT tutor and just hoping to work with a study buddy or form a group.
My discord is (grumpykitten9)
I am planning on taking it within 2-3 months.
In the tri-state area (NYC EST) happy to work with anyone in any area
I skip around passages from easiest to hardest. typically, at the 3rd passage I start comprehending the passage less than if I were doing this passage isolated to the rest in the form of a drill . I assume the issue is because I have trouble shifting focus from passage to passage. As a result, I find myself not being able to complete 4-6 questions because I try to keep understand the passage after the initial read to reference those questions. Does anyone have any advice to overcome this> Thanks.
I am currently working on writing my personal statement and I am not a great writer, at all!! I have heard many ways to go about topics to discuss, what to include, and what not to include.
Can someone offer any help or advice?!? Possible proofreading and provide unbiased feedback?
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
For anyone still looking for a server, and are ok with a big one, here is mine : https://discord.gg/AWekDrtwHc. I’ve been notified of a few that seem to have carbon-copied our design, but the thing they can’t poach, is community, and we would love to have you be part of our LSAT family. The server has dedicated post-lsat channels, some of them are: personal statement review, professional tutor help/and law school admissions, special lsat experts visit before each LSAT. Where ever you have them else where, we had them first, and we have them better. You are all welcome, and @KevinLin7Sage you are super welcome, we’d be honored to have you grace us with your presence. Please feel free to pass on the link to anyone else, unless you are one of 3 I have banned. We look forward to getting to know you!
Does the study schedule they give us in the 'learn' tab include drills? If not, when do they expect us to do the drills? After each topic or at the end of the week or when?
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!
Anyone else running into this issue where the word wrap per line just starts changing for no reason? I'll be honest, it's annoying enough to where I'm questioning whether A.) I want to take the test digitally in any capacity and or B.) continue using 7sage.
Got my score back two days ago, and it was about 8 points lower than I was hoping for (165 vs 173). I signed up to take the November LSAT, but trying to figure out the best way of studying when I don't know which questions on the official test that I got wrong is really frustrating. I struggled with one of the LR sections, so I'll be going through the CC for LR again, but any other advice is appreciated! I was scoring much higher during PTs, even having ample time left over, and don't know where to go from here studying-wise, especially since I am in my senior year and have a full-time job on top of that.
ANY advice, whether it's about studying following a lower score, or scheduling time to study when you absolutely only have PT- time on the weekends is appreciated!

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:
