Hi everyone,
I am having difficulties finding an approach for detail-heavy passages, i.e. that don't have much of an argument to them but instead a lot of facts and details (For example Passage #1 - Burning Forests of LSAT 38/114 Section III). Since I usually focus on finding the argument and author's tone in each passage, I often lose of a lot of time going back to the details to answer the questions for this kind of passage.
Does anyone have any tips or strategy?
Thank you!
I bought powerscore book in 2020 but didn't get a chance to study. Do I need to purchase this year's edition one if I want to study this year? Would there be much difference?
Hi! I am currently studying for the September LSAT and would love to have a group or study buddy in the Eastern Daylight Timezone.
Hi everyone!!
My name is Adam and I am looking to start an OC study group.
A little bit about myself. I am currently PTing in the high 160's and looking to push into the mid 170's by August. I recently graduated UC Berkeley as an imbedded logic tutor and honestly I really enjoy the LSAT and would be more than happy to help anyone out that's scoring lower than I am.
My ideal outcome would be gathering a solid group of friends with varying degrees of experience that want to push themselves as hard as they can. So it doesn't matter where you are at in your journey, as long as you are motivated and optimistic about the exam you are more than welcome to join!
I don't think I can post a phone number here so DM me and we can get a group chat going!
Have a great day :)
So when I’m having a tough time with a question and I’m on my phone, sometimes I’ll look up the question on Google, and see that 7sage has that particular video online (ex: “Section 1 Question 23”) but when I click on it from Safari, it opens up through the browser and I’d have to log in in order to view the video. If possible, and I think it would be a lot more convenient for people who have the app installed on their phones, to insert a button at the top of the browser that allows you to automatically open the app with the specific video instead of having to log in through the browser.
Hi, I am confused on LSAT 29 – Section 1 – Question 16. I don’t understand why we don’t have to assume PIE falls into the group of languages that lacks words for prominent elements. In comparison to LSAT 20 – Section 4 – Question 25, which has a similar structure to this problem, answer choice C would force us to assume that Marianne’s involuntary humming is something that she is aware of, which would undermine the premise, but that assumption makes the answer choice incorrect. Why in this problem can we make the assumption, but the other problem, we cannot?
Thank you!
I live in Colorado Springs & work a 9-5. Looking for a (or multiple!) study buddy.
Hi guys- I'm applying to a law school that asks you to list each educational institution attended, along with the GPA for each. I have two questions:
For the GPA for my undergraduate institution, should I list my LSAC GPA or transcript GPA? My LSAC GPA is higher so I would rather do that, but I want to make sure I'm doing the right thing.
I attended a pre-college program, as well as an abroad program (run by my college). My GPA for both the pre-college program credit and abroad program credit are reflected on my transcript and factored into my overall undergraduate GPA. Do I need to include the GPAs with my entries for the pre-college program and abroad program on the law school app?
I just completed a timed argumentative essay and wanted to ask if any one else has done an essay and would want to meet to give feedback on each other's work?
Hey! Looking to create a study session/accountability group for the August 2025 LSAT, 165+ scoring, preferrably 2nd time testing, Toronto GTA area. Message me your IG! (creating small group)
How long (whether in terms of hours or across a span of days) does it take for you to do the following?
I ask because it takes me about a month to get through all of this, and that seems much longer than what I hear is recommended. Granted, I am aiming to increase my study time on the weekdays, so that should establish a faster cycle. I currently study an hour per work night, on average. For weekends, about 2-3 hours per day.
My distribution is something like:
Open to any tips you all have!
Hello. Im taking the LSAT on June 2025. I've complited abt 65% of the foundation part.
I want to know if I should keep seeing the videos or I should start practicing. In the LR part, are the videos gonna stop?
Thank you for Reading me.
Would love to set up a virtual study session on Zoom for those living in SEA-TAC area or in PNW. Shoot me a message if you're interested. Looking forward to hearing from y'all.
I currently work at a small law office in NYC. A couple of weeks ago, I got accepted into my dream law school and will be enrolling for fall 2025 so my position will be open starting April.
This role is a perfect opportunity for those preparing to go to law school. It is only part-time so you will be able to study for the LSAT or work on other application materials. Additionally, the role leaves a lot of free time during the work day to study for the LSAT or work on other application materials as well. Another amazing thing about this role is that because you are working in a small law office, there is a lot of room for growth and learning. I truly believe this work experience made a difference in my law school application as I had the opportunity to begin drafting legal documents, learned what I liked/did not like about the field, was able to study for the LSAT during work, and got a great recommendation letter from my boss. A huge plus is that the staff are extremely friendly and flexible.
If you applied this cycle but are deciding to take another year off or have not yet applied, this might be a perfect opportunity for you. PM me if you are interested - serious inquiries only please.
I work as a research coordinator and have been heavily involved in a lot of research projects. Should I keep a completely separate page with the research project titles? Maybe titles research projects or something? Just wanted to know how anyone else with research experience listed it on their resumes. Thanks!
Ive taken the time to learn the fundamentals of LR and RC for months. Now I'm drilling non stop based on previous prep test analytics but I'm asking how you to balance studying. Given in a week, approx 4 hrs/daily
Monday- LR specific Q types
Tuesday-LR
Wednesday: RC
Thursday: RC
Friday: LR
Saturday: anything you didn't get done
Sunday: rest
How do you balance RC/LR?
Hi everyone,
Is there an explanation for why the scaled score varies by 1-2 points from the current test format to the obsolete test format, same raw score? This is reflected in the conversion table on 7sage. For example, -5 is a 174 for X modern PT, but 173 for the corresponding obsolete (but modified - LR, LR, RC, no experimental) PT. Presumably, since the same scored sections are tested (given 7Sage modification), the scaled score should be the same, unless I'm misunderstanding something.
I made the mistake of taking a test on LawHub under the current test format and manually inputting the answers in the corresponding obsolete (but modified, no LG) 7Sage test. Two different scaled scores were given, 1 point off. I double checked - exact same scored sections. Is this just a matter of adjusting the scaled scores with removal of LG?
And I assume that I should rely on the current test format's scaled score, correct?
Please speak to how many questions to select, what difficulty to set it to, which years, etc.
Hi all! I had been consistently scoring between 165-167 on previous PTs before I took the Nov LSAT, and was incredibly disappointed to when I found out I 160 on it. This is my first time using 7sage and I am taking the January LSAT.
How in depth should I be studying each LR question type? I'm finding that doing the lessons don't leave me much time for drilling and I'm not sure how to balance it. Would love some advice on how to use the study plan in tandem with drilling and taking sections!
Thanks :)
Hey everyone,
I just took the LSAT in November and scored a 147. After studying for 5 to 6 months I was pretty bummed by my score. Since then, I've been grinding and have consistently been scoring between 155 and 158 throughout 8 to 9 practice tests. I was wondering what tactic's you used/ what you studied to get from the mid 150's to the low 160's. I'm taking the test in January again in 4 weeks and am wondering if this is even attainable if I put in 40 hours a week studying. Thanks :)

I work 9-5 so evening and weekends would be the only time I could have study sessions. I plan on taking the LSAT in April with a goal of 170+. Message me if you'd like to connect!
Hi all,
My PT score does not reflect my drill score. I consistently get -0 to -3 on individual LR timed sections (some of these are older tests, some are fairly new). On full PT LR sections, I get around -5/-6, regardless of the order of sections. There have been only a select few times I've gotten -3 or better on LR PTs, but those were a few months ago.
BR score for LR is usually -1/-3, so I don't think it's a lack of comprehension or understanding of the material...
Any tips on getting my PT score to better reflect my drilling score? I suspect it's a matter of PT stress, but are there any other major reasons you think there's a difference that I'm overlooking?
Advice much appreciated, thanks!
looking for a study buddy in/near Omaha NE, June LSAT
