In this episode of the 7Sage LSAT Podcast, we tackle exactly how to turn a disappointing score into a breakthrough—so you’ll walk into test day more confident and prepared than ever. We break down how to diagnose the gaps in your first run (from timing hiccups to recurring question‑type errors), then show you how to rebuild your study plan around those insights. You’ll pick up practical tips on setting realistic weekly goals, practicing mindfulness for test day, and slotting in targeted drills to shore up weak spots.

Proctors:

I don't even know where to start. The proctors were completely inexperienced and as that wasn't enough of a nightmare they were extremely rude to test takers. To be point of humiliating students in front of everyone in the class, making them feel horrible for walking in with labels on their water bottles (just really overusing their authority). They seemed very confused about every step from the time students were entering the room until the time the test was about to begin.

Facilities:

The facilities are alright. The test building is easy to find.

What kind of room:

Just a typical community college class room. Very small setting compare to other I have attended.

How many in the room:

Most 20 students each room. There were several rooms at this testing center.

Desks:

You have to share the desk with another student. There is enough distance between sits, but can be quite distracting with you are a person that gets easily distracted.

Left-handed accommodation:

The desk works for both left and right handed people the same way.

Noise levels:

Very silent, especially since the room is so small.

Parking:

Parking is okay, there is enough spaces for everyone.

Time elapsed from arrival to test:

One hour, seems like it is not that long, but the proctors make it so stressful that it seem like YEARS!

Irregularities or mishaps:

This test center is a NIGHTMARE. Like previously mention the proctors make the experience so stressful that you begin the test already feeling horrible about the experience. Unfortunately, the way people act towards me at the test center really impacts my overall experience, so this really ruined it for me. The proctors really abuse of their power, by making a big deal out of every little detail and they were calling out different things in front of the whole classroom making test takers feel really uncomfortable. I felt so humiliated that I went home and didn't finish my exam there, I tried to complain to the LSAC, but nothing was done about it. So, my advice, do NOT sign up for this test center.

Other comments:

Would you take the test here again?

NEVER AGAIN! I would rather drive 20 minutes to go take the test in Northwestern University (I had a great experience there).

Hi guys, I took my first LSAT this past Saturday aiming to break 170, but realistically, I think I probably scored more within the low-mid 160s. My target schools are Berkeley, UCLA, and NYU. I'm planning to retake the LSAT in December and I'm hoping to get in my application by the end of October. My question is whether it's better to apply with a cancelled LSAT score or whether it's better to apply with a low LSAT score (as compared to the medians at those three schools). Are there any disadvantages of applying with a low LSAT score? Will they not consider my application because of the low score? My GPA is 3.7 and I'm an international student (Canada), if that information is relevant. Thank you in advance for your help!

I've loved this course so far! However, one thing I struggle with more than anything is diagramming the Logic Games. For me, this is the hardest part of the section and I have lesser confidence in this section than all the others. Time and space for drawing is a constriction that further messes with my confidence, although I do diagram each clue out. My biggest program after is combining the clues. Can you offer any tips or suggestions?

Is anyone interested in forming a study group for the March Lsat ? If your in NYC we can meet at a mutual location.

Hello,

I just wanted to post this to see how other people are learning from their missed questions. As I was looking over some missed questions and seeing why the correct answer is correct, it struck me that I don't have a very good system for learning from my missed questions and remembering my mistakes. I've been blind reviewing of course, and then I will write out my thinking in the "explanation note" box. How are others keeping in mind the mistakes they've made, and carrying it over to similar questions? This is mainly for LR.

Thanks!

Today only, my blind review keeps telling me that I got 0% even when I get the answer correct. Additionally, this isn't an issue with time. On a few I've been over time, however, most I have been under time and it continues to happen. What is going on

Greetings, 7Sagers!

On Tuesday, May 21 at 8pm ET, join 7Sage admissions consultants Tajira McCoy and Sam Riley for another panel discussion with law school admissions deans from across the country. For this conversation, hear from representatives of Boston College, Catholic University, Howard University, Loyola University Chicago, Loyola Los Angeles, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, as they weigh in on commitment overlap, financing your legal education, and waitlist offers. Audience members will be allowed to submit Q&A for the discussion.

Please note: this session will be recorded and posted to our podcast following editing for sound quality and captions.

If you're ready to get more practice taking a full LSAT Prep Test under simulated online proctor conditions, you're in the right place. The next Proctored PT will take place on Saturday February 24 at 1:00 PM.

Thanks to all who could come last week to the PT and BR sessions. On Monday we covered your flagged LR questions from PT76 S2, focusing on the most difficult ones first. Virulent diseases, email disclaimers, and cancelling police dramas made it into the mix! On Tuesday, we covered RC (S1), which led us to into a whirlwind of positive vs. negative evidence, the discovery of Neptune, and a hot take on Schoenberg's music being actually ~good~. Who knew the LSAT was so interesting?

Here's how our Proctored PTs work:

Once you sign up, you'll receive an email from Zoom with the link to join the meeting.

Select a PT that you want to take for the proctored test. This week's recommended PT is test 77; you're encouraged to attend the associated Blind Review sessions on Monday and Tuesday! (BR Series). You can take the PT through 7Sage, or- if you want to simulate real test-day conditions- you can log into LawHub and take it there.

Show up to the Zoom meeting 10 minutes before the scheduled start time (12:50 PM ET). You will all be prompted to complete a room scan (similar to the test-day security measures) at the same time and then put into a breakout room by yourself to complete the test.

Simulate the test! Our 7Sage Proctors will monitor the testing process for the duration of your test and even simulate a pesky interruption. The Proctor will ask if anyone would like to be interrupted at the beginning of the session, and you will have the chance to indicate your preference. If only the Prometric proctors would be so kind as to ask! If you have any approved accommodations, please let us know via private chat at the beginning of the session as well––you will be able to test with those.

If you have any questions, please email bailey.luber@7sage.com. We hope to see you there!

When I applied for undergrad, there was a huge emphasis on FAFSA. My question is, do I need to apply for FAFSA for Law School? Is it necessary? Do the FAFSA requirements vary from school to school? If I missed the deadline for this cycle for FAFSA and am in Law School, can I apply during the next cycle? Besides the LSAT, LSAC, CAS and actual school applications, is there anything else I should be applying for or keeping an eye out for?

Hi all,

I'm gearing up for the September 2014 test. Wondering if anyone in Orange County would like to meet up on weekdays after 6PM or on weekends.

I'm sure I'm not alone in using 7Sage's LSAT Analysis tools AFTER taking and grading my own PTs.

For those of us who do, as we improve, it starts to become more of a hassle for us to enter all our correct answers in the PT Grader.

Why not offer an option to only enter the answers you got wrong? It would save anyone averaging 160+ a significant amount of time.

Hi all! I am reviewing PT86.S1.Q21. I understand why we can get rid of answer choices a,c and e as well as the general flaw in the argument being that the spread of organic farming is only a problem for having enough food if all farmers switch to organic farming. However, I am having trouble with what differentiates answers b and d. I know it has something to do with the logical meaning of some and all, and their opposites not some and not all. The explanation video for this question leaves it up to us to think about at the end, but I'm hitting a wall so all help appreciated! Thanks!

I am getting ready to take the LSAT for the second time and most of my PT's have been the 40's-50's because I used the most recent ones up during my first go around of studying. Would it be beneficial to retake one of the most recent prep tests again to try and get familiar with the new trends before test day? It's been about 3-4 months since I last took them. I am just not sure if it would be beneficial to go through material and PT a test again that I had already done a few months back. Thanks for the help!

I'm chugging through the lesson plans, and I've completed about 45%. I'm writing in December, and I've almost completed the Reading Comprehension lessons.

At this point, when I get ready in the morning, I read through all of the PDF notes given to us. I do the lesson plans in the morning before work for an hour, at lunch on my lunch break, and from 1-3 hours after work.

Does anyone do anything additional to reading the notes? I know he suggested reading The Economist, but does anyone do anything extra? I did do the Kaplan Method previous to this, so I have exhausted a few LSATs, and I don't want to just keep practicing on LSATs in case I run out before I begin the actual practice portion of this LSAT help.

What are you doing?!?!

Thanks :)

Hi,

First time poster, long time lurker. Currently, I am making some slow progress with my PTs. My recent tests have moved from a 155, 156, and most recently a 157. Slow and steady? maybe? A major trend that I am experiencing with all my PTs is that I run out of time on each section and end up guessing 15-20 questions per test (e.g., 1 passage in RC, 1 game in LG, and usually the last 5 questions of each LR section). My blind reviews range from the 169-175- if that matters? Thus, my question is to ask the advice of the 7sage community- how can I improve my speed so I can actually answer those questions that Im guessing? Any help would be greatly appreciated and any similar stories of success with this lagging brain problem would be greatly motivating. Help me 7sage, you're my only hope.

Hey all,

I am getting ready for the December test. This will be my second time testing. I am aiming for a score in the 170s and am currently averaging the upper 160s. I feel like I can get to the next level but feel a little lost as to how to get there. As of right now, I do prep tests and review questions that I mark for BR or that I got wrong and then do them again. I feel like this is a "20% of the work gets you 80% of the way" situation.

Does anyone else who is shooting for or has achieved this kind of increase have advice for how they went about doing it? I work well with laid out plans and I feel like there is potential for me to improve to the level I want if I have the right studying methodology.

Thanks so much
