Hi! On my analytics, it says I need to work on Link Assumption -(LR) but I dont know where its located on the core curriculum?
Any advice?
I sometimes get tripped up distinguishing between premises and background context. Sometimes I miss a premise because I think it’s just context, and other times I mistake context for a premise. Has anyone else struggled with this? If so, what strategies have helped you get better at telling the difference? I’ve already gone through the explanations in the core curriculum, and it's not really clicking - I’d really appreciate some fresh perspectives.
Is there a way to access all of the content ive bookmarked on the site (ie; recorded classes, lessons, questions/explanations, etc). I can't seem to find a section for it as of yet.
Thanks!
I am taking my LSAT in November and just recently began studying. I just started the CC and am only 50% through the foundations unit. I have also taken one untimed PT, on which I scored 161. I am aiming for a score of 165+. I feel like I have a decent grasp of LR and completed those sections quite close to the 35 min time limit, but took far longer on the RC. I believe I can increase my LR score significantly with limited studying and practice, but I know that RC will take significant work for me.
Considering my short time frame for preparation (during which I will also be taking a 16 credit semester), does anyone have advice on the best way to approach my study time? Do people recommend completing the CC, or focusing solely on practice tests? Should I spend time on un-timed PT's, or focus only on timed ones?
Thanks for the help!
Don't be shy, share your results!
Hey guys, I just took the August LSAT, and I'm planning on retaking in November. I wanted to know if there was any way I could review my answers on the August test, but I cant seem to find anything. If you've found a way to do it or just want to study together sometime please let me know
We've (re)launched the Explanations page, a favorite from classic 7Sage! This page allows you to easily navigate to the text or video explanation for any question from any PT.
Hi! I received a 161 on my first LSAT. I am trying to figure out if I should cancel my score. I have the whole year to study (applying to the 2026 cycle), and aim to get in the 170s. In the eyes of a T-14 school, is a 161 worse or better than a cancellation on my record?
Thanks for guidance!
Want to be the fly on the wall of an admissions room and hear how AOs really judge applications?
Join us as a committee of three top AOs (with combined years of experience at Stanford, Berkeley, Northwestern, and Notre Dame) review applications submitted by 7Sage subscribers.
Thursday, September 4th at noon ET! RSVP here: https://7sage.com/classes/evt_030rya8YhRXxg3CwiADQVi
And if you'd like us to consider reviewing your application, you can submit it here:

We're particularly interested in reviewing fuller applications (with at least a PS and resume.) We're also happy to review previously used apps from potential reapplicants.

I am taking the September 2025 LSAT online using ProProcter. In the test instructions it says that scrap paper and pens are prohibited. How am I supposed to map out logic heavy questions? Is there a pencil tool on the program? What about a highlighter tool?
Hi! I'm currently based in SF, studying for the February LSAT. Aiming for 172+, but pretty early in my study journey. If anyone is looking for a study group/accountability partner in the SF area, lmk! Would love to study together (either virtually or meet-up).

Obviously when you get near to the test, you're also a little burnt out. I like the idea of tapering (taken from sports) as I scored my highest PT after going easier the week before. I tried to recreate this for another PT to test it out and my score decreased a little (granted I was also quite exhausted on that PT day).
Wondering if there are any taper recommendations so you feel prepped but fresh for actual test. Thanks!
Should I cancel my August score?
Scored 165 in April, 170 in June, and then 167 in August. Aiming for a 173+ and will take the exam again in October. Noting that my August score dropped, would it be better to cancel?
When are previous live sessions uploaded into the database? Will they continued to be uploaded on the classic.7sage website or will I need to use the new webpage?
Thank you.
Does anyone know if there is a way to hide the timer while taking a section or PT?

Happy studying!
Hi all,
I took the LSAT four times within a span of six months. I scored 171, 170, 171, then 174 this past August. It may look like I was just hammering away, but I did this because throughout all of these takes (excluding the first) I was consistently doing better than a 171 on PTs. I came to the conclusion that the issue was mostly with my mental game, whose importance I had underestimated until the fourth take. I also went super super specific into my errors before the fourth take. I ended up increasing to a 174, which was what I was averaging by then, and I'm super happy with the result.
That said, I'm wondering if my situation warrants an addendum. I know four times is on the higher side in terms of # of takes. Will law school admissions people want to see an explanation for why I took it four times in such a short span of time? I'd really appreciate any insight you could offer.
Please join me, Sam Kwak, current 7Sage admissions consultant and former Northwestern and Stanford admissions officer, to discuss what an LSAT score actually means to the people who actually review law school applications.

I took my lsat this past August and scored a 156. I have a 4.0 gpa.
I did not put as much time into it as I probably should have due to some extremely stressful life events this summer. Is this even a good score? Obviously I would be taking it again but I am debating deferring admissions for another year due to this score/life events. Im not necessarily trying to get a 180 or anything, but I think my goal would be maybe around 165-170. Thoughts? Is this do-able within the next few months? Thanks.
As the title says, I'm wondering if cancelling subscription will result in the loss of all of my data (scores, wrong answer journal notes, etc.). I'd appreciate the help, thanks.
so likeeee help. I'm signed up for the sept lsat but I am just now revisiting my studying. I took a class from may-july and don't feel like i really improved. I got really discouraged and i'm just now getting back into studying. i'm nervous that i'm not going to do well on the lsat. i work a full time job and i'm not sure if taking it next week is smart... but i also don't want to wait too long that it will affect my likelihood of getting into a school. i have a high gpa but i really am struggling with this lsat stuff. i work a full-time job so i don't have much time for studying. any advice here????
Hi, I'm preparing to take the LSAT in November and really want to work with an accountability buddy or group so we can check on each other's progress daily and keep each other focused. Ideally we'd do this on Discord. I'm also down to join any preexisting accountability groups around, just send me an invite. Lmk if you're interested!
