I have been studying for months now after taking my LSAT in June and i got 7stage after that test. Ive been following the syllabus, blind reviewing and watching all the videos of ones i got wrong and didnt really understand and im scoring on my two practice test a 142 and 146. I got a 146 on my exam in June and i just want to break 150s for my next exam in October. Im not sure what im doing wrong but i really need help and if anyone has advice that would be greatly appreictaed

If anyone could share their strategy sheet for Logical Reasoning question types, it would be greatly appreciated.

7Sage has a really helpful one in their Reading Comprehension curriculum, but I haven't found one for LR.

Thanks!

hello. can someone please answer a question regarding the writing part of the LSAT. if you are taking it in September, how long do you have to complete the writing section? I am trying to find clarity on this. Thank you

I am confused on the timing of the writing portion of the exam. What is the deadline associated with the writing portion? Is it something to worry about before or after the actual exam?

Hello! I have gone through the syllabus on Parallel Flaw questions and I am still not getting it. On my drills I seem to keep missing those and wasting time trying to solve them. Any tips? Help is much appreciated!

Hi,

I'm wondering how I would go about drilling a full section of LR/RC without using a preptest. This answer has been answered a couple of years ago and it seems like the method/UI has since changed on 7sage. Would I just up the drill size to 25? Would that give me an accurate distributions of 1-5star questions? Need some #feedback #help

The biggest piece of advice that I've gotten from countless videos regarding RC, is that you have to pretend like you're interested in the RC passages to do well. I didn't understand why I wasn't doing well because I was highlighting and taking notes, so how could I not understand the passage? But when I got down to answering the questions, I was getting a majority of them wrong. It was extremely discouraging, to say the least.

As soon as I started gaslighting myself into giving a damn about the topics discussed in RC, I started seeing improvement. No highlighting things I think are important, no taking notes that I won't even go back to--just pretending like a topic, that I genuinely do not care about, is something super interesting.

The amount of times I think to myself: "wow, that's cool." "oh, I never knew that, how interesting." is the biggest reason why I'm having to refer to the passages less when answering questions.

Engage with the passage, I promise it'll pay off.

Hi all! I'm looking for a study buddy/ group study in western mass. If you're interested, drop your IG/discord/slack (wtv) @. :)

Looking to increase by score by at least 15 points in the November test. I just really need words of encouragement and ways you guys are able to stay commitment and focused. What are some techniques you guys use? If anyone is interested in creating a study group please let me know!

Update: I created a discord and I'm still in the middle of setting everything up. Both for those of you who want to join!

Hi everyone!

I'm currently registered for the October LSAT. I've been studying on and off for about 2 months now and I started focusing more last month. I'm currently studying around 5/6 daily. However, I still don't feel confident and/or comfortable with the material. Do you think I should reschedule it for November? Or should I just take it both October and November (I don't mind doing so). Is it enough time to build more confidence and get more comfortable with the test?

I also would love to join/open and study group!

In this, the slash / is used as a symbol for negation, but isn't the symbol for negation ¬

Please tell me if I'm wrong or correct?

Is there a way that I can take 2 sections of a PT and br and then take the next two after and br those. I don't like how i have to do all 4 sections before BR because as of right now i am trying to focus on accuracy not timing. Will i just have to make a drill with the two sections and do it that way? or can i make a practice test like that sorry if this is a dumb question

It seems like I am incapable at doing the strengthening and weakening questions. I read the answer choices and just think that none of them make sense. I could use some advice.

I’ve been studying for the LSAT since the end of May, I’m taking the September and probably November LSATs, but right now the last thing I want to do is sit down and drill and go through problems and practice tests. I know I’m burnt out but I need to raise my scores, does anyone have advice on how to deal with this?

I don’t know if anyone else this issue but everytime I open the app the landing screen is a blank white screen. I don’t know if this happens to everyone or if there is anything I could do but is there a way that I can configure the settings such that the Home Screen appears instead of an all white / black screen I need to click back on?

Hey y'all. I was hoping anyone could give me some advice or insight on how to pick a professor to write a letter of rec.

I had already picked my two professors for letters of rec and sent out emails to ask if they could write the letters for me. They are both professors that I was a research assistant for during my time in undergrad. They both got back to me and told me yes, however one of the professors wrote to me that I should also get letters of rec from professors who had me in their classes.

This completely stressed me out because I thought I had my letters of rec all figured out and done but now I'm spiraling and trying to figure out if it will look bad if my two letters of rec are from professors I did research with and were not in their classes.

So I guess overall my question is if it's okay if I have two strong letters of rec from professors I was a research assistant for (and they're both political science professors so within my major, and one of them is the dean of the social science department) or will it look bad that they're not professors who had me in their class.

Thanks!

hey everyone! I have been studying consistently for about a month and a half and get really sick from stress. I was bumping my score but I entered a stage where whenever I look at the screen I feel tired and nauseous. Worst part is my Pt score and drill scores have gone down too. What can I do?

7sage why do i keep making new reading passage drills that i recognize from the past???? thats so annoying

I am signed up for the September LSAT, I had originally planned to take the October LSAT but since I won't know my official score until just a couple weeks before the October test, I figured I should wait and take the November LSAT instead so I have more time to study. I am planning on applying for Fall 2025 so applications are either already open or are opening soon. Will waiting to submit my applications until after the November LSAT affect my applicant status/chances for scholarships/chances for getting into a school at all?

Hey all, I wanted to just come on here to talk about the importance of taking your darn breaks while studying for this test.

I think a nice thing about the LSAT is that it is a skill-based test. Taking a break will not hamper your ability to improve.

I started studying early this year, started in March and took the test in June. I'm not qualified or anything but I can attest to the importance of giving your brain room to absorb the skills based on my own experiences. I went HARD in my studying in May - I'm talking waking up, going directly to my desk to study, break to eat, study until 1 am, sleep, repeat. My life was the LSAT and, as expected of a human being, I got extremely burnt out. I would stare at questions bored out of my mind. Never broke the 150s despite my hours of studying. Got a 160 on my test in June. Not a bad score though it was not my goal score and I knew that I had it in me to do better.

June passed, I did not study. July passed, I did not study. I didn't TOUCH anything LSAT related. Sat down to do a practice test in August, I'm began breaking into the 160s. I didn't study at all for two months, yet I feel as though something unconsciously clicked in the time that I took to allow my brain to breathe. I come into studying with a completely different understanding of the test, it's a strange sensation that I cannot adequately explain. Those two months helped more than the month I took shoving practice down my throat.

That said, should you take two months off blindly in an attempt to increase your score? No. What I am hoping to emphasize is the importance of pacing yourself. Give your mind the time to absorb the skills you are learning. Let things marinate, if you will. Cramming study time into your schedule without adequate rest periods will not help and it's so important to set limits and boundaries. This is a life changing test, sure, but it should not absorb all of your time and energy.

Wishing the best for you all on your LSAT and Law School journeys (3(/p)

Hello all! I've heard great things about this forum in my non-trad law school journey. I am 28 and wrapping up a PhD in Romance languages. My aim is to finish my degree in Spring 2026 and matriculate into a law program by that fall. I have thought about law over the years, but developed an interest in teaching & humanities research. But it's my research and experiences that have led me back to the legal world, especially anywhere that international, immigration and/or labor & employment law might intersect.

I had a meeting with a career services advisor (not pre-law) who was seriously concerned about my appearing to be a perpetual student when applying. She said I absolutely MUST get some kind of internship experience in immigration or international law before I apply in 2025 if I want to stand a chance for admission.

I have not fully "locked in" so to speak in securing that kind of position, but have a few contacts and programs in mind. I'm also considering how I can balance this with getting my research funded so I can wrap up my dissertation in time. My question is: how much am I jeopardizing my admissions prospects WITHOUT that specific internship experience, ex. if I got funded to research abroad? And will I truly be an irredeemable egghead in the case that I'm not able to land an internship?

Is the career switch (from academia to law) addendum-worthy, or is it something that can be adequately covered in the scope of a personal statement?

I'm fortunate enough to have several close faculty contacts from my undergrad institution. That said, I got my BA in 2018. Should I just focus on current faculty (like my dissertation committee) for LORs?

Thank you all!

I have been studying for the past couple months for the September LSAT. My last three PT's have been in the high 150s and I am so close to breaking 160. However, I am stressing/feeling discouraged because the test is in three weeks. Any advice on the most helpful ways to study between now and then? I am currently reviewing missed questions on my PTs, drilling, and doing a wrong answer journal. Hopefully next PT will be better?

Can someone explain how to study with 7 sage now that the LG is removed, how should I follow the study plan?

I noticed today the RC Curriculum, as I am going through it, changed from 244 lessons to 169!! I am happy but is 7Sage adding more lessons in or will it remain at 169 lessons? Thanks, I am trying to get my study schedule correct.
