I'm not sure what to do, I am planning on taking the September LSAT but I'm not sure ill be able to gauge how ready I am by the registration date. I would do the October LSAT but then I wont be able to see my score before the November registration deadline if I need to take it again. Maybe im not understanding how it works etc. but im just not sure if I should take it in october and then register for november wihtout knowing my score in case i didnt get the score i wanted or register for september but I wont know for certain how ready I am by the time we have to register

I'm scheduled to take my first test in August and am about 7 points away from my ideal score. My RC is pretty strong and I'm confident that won't weigh me down. But LR is a bit tricky for me, specifically the 4/5 difficulty questions. Obviously that makes sense, they're supposed to be the hardest ones. But I need to start getting more of them right if I want to break through to my target score. Any advice on how to get better at those LR questions?
Heads up, everyone! Starting July 1, LawHub Advantage will be increasing the cost of their annual subscription by $5. It's going from $115/year to $120/year.
If you're planning to re-up your LawHub Advantage subscription and want to save the $5, make sure to renew before July 1 at https://www.lsac.org/lawhub. Remember, you can get LawHub Advantage for free (and 7Sage for $1!) if you qualify for an LSAC fee waiver.
I'm taking the August exam, which includes practicing with sections of LR, Unscored LR, and RC. However, I consistently perform better on the scored LR sections than the unscored ones. As a result, my overall practice scores are lower. I feel like the way they write questions for the unscored sections isn't helpful for preparing or estimating how well we'll do on the actual exam in August. Anyone else feeling like this?
If you qualify for accommodations you can request to have the experimental section removed. I had some great, beneficial accommodations, but wasn't aware this is even a thing. Wish someone would've told me, so grabbing some karma points hopefully and passing this along. Also, @7sage, you should add 'accommodations' as a discussion topic.
One of the things I like to is read random things to practice the foundational lessons since the LSAT questions are a finite resource. I try to do this to train my brain to read as if I was reading a stim from the LR section or a passage from RC. I also try to do the translate that was recommend to put things into ones owns words to better understand what one read,
Would anyone be interested in creating a reading club to practice together? We could share articles or reading material. See what we missed, what works for others or what we can improve upon. Although I would like to mostly focus on non-LSAT reading material, I would not be opposed to every now and then doing some LR or RC to see how we are progressing.
A while ago I created a discord server but it has not been active in a long time. Although, I gave admin access to someone else who is keen to have a general study group. While they do have admin access, I am not sure if they want to be part of this but I will ask them.
Hey everyone! I am new to 7Sage and I just got the subscription after reading the Powerscore bibles. I am wondering how those of you who have subscribed to live handle studying and attending the classes. I am struggling with balancing which sessions to attend and finding the time to practice drills on my own. Do you attend most of the sessions or do you pick and chose? For me, there is a huge fear of FOMO and the live classes do help with motivation and getting going but I am on PDT time and some of the classes are crazy early at 6am. What do you all do? Also is it worth doing the 4 star and 5 star question sessions or just building up the skills in 1-3 first before even attending those days?
Hello everyone,
I recently learned that if you qualify for accommodations, it might be possible to request the removal of the experimental section from an exam.
Does anyone know how to make this request? Who should you contact, and do you need to specify the removal of the experimental section directly?
Thanks a lot!
Hi,
I am reviewing my mistakes on Prep Test 108, and I noticed that there are no Explanations for sec 4. Seems strange since there were explanations for section 1 which was ungraded. In particular I'm looking for an explanation on question 26. Thank you!
I have a question regarding the drilling method that I should be using (Specifically for LR Q's).
-Should I be using the "Drilling" sections in the CC found after each LR question type in order to practice to improve on each of those question types?
-Would doing so too often cause me to lose valuable resources that I would gain from taking the full prep tests?
I want to improve on the question types that I am struggling with, especially the harder questions in those subsections, but don't want to use up all of the material from the prep tests.
If you have any advice on how to drill properly and efficiently your help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi! How would I go about printing drill sets/ prep tests? Thanks!
I just want to confirm my understanding on this.
Are these true?
If sufficient fails then no valid conclusions about the necessary condition, but if sufficient satisfied or affirmed then it triggers necessary, hence we can have a valid conclusion.
If necessary fails then it would trigger the sufficient, hence we can have a valid conclusion, but if necessary satisfied or affirmed then no valid conclusion.
and also whats the best way to memorize this? lol
Lets buckle down and start studying 3-5 hrs a day.
DM me!! Let's get a little group started to keep eachother accountable.
I'm averaging in the low to mid 170s and am aiming for a 17High. Any active groups out there doing review / study sessions?
Do the new PrepTests allow you to do blind review? Also, are these all brand new unused questions or where did they come from? I used 7Sage for well over a year to study prior to the new LSAT format but I took a break for a few months, now I am confused about what test questions I should be using for drills and which I should be using for full practice tests.
Greetings, 7Sagers!!

Hello!
I created a discord channel for those who are aiming for a 170+ and are serious about getting there.
The chats in it all serve a specific function. From specific question help to timing strategies.
There are also voice channels to blind review PTs and to be held accountable during study time.
Let’s push each other to our goal!
Can someone explain this? It says "most anthropologists" agreed with Darwin. I may just be blind but I can't seem to find where it says or even suggests that "most" anthropologists. It does suggest that Darwin's theory was the preexisting accepted theory but that doesn't necessarily mean the "most"
Hi! I am looking for a few study buddies that live in Miami/Broward area that are interested and willing to meet once or twice a week in July to prepare for the August LSAT. PM for more details
Hi there,
I've been logged out of my account, and every time I try to log back in or reset my password, I experience problems. SOS #help I can't study!!!
hi! as the title indicates, i've done 3 PTs and went from a 166 to a 173, and then back down to a 167. i know studying more doesn't guarantee higher scores, but i was disappointed because i felt like i was on the up-and-up, lmao!
from your experience studying, what is this kind of fluctuation indicative of? and do you have any tips for scoring consistently at your target? i really appreciate any insight, i'm getting a bit in my head about this so i imagine being grounded by the community would be helpful!
No pressure to meet regularly, but would be nice to know more people studying around Boston area for fall.
Hello!
I recently took PT138 from the August 2024 and later tab and noticed an LR section completely overlapped with one I had taken with a logic game (PT60). Assuming the new tests are randomly distributing an experimental RC or LR section to keep the test at 4 sections, is there is any way we can block or substitute the extra section if we already took it?
(i.e. PT138 pulls three sections from the Dec 2012 exam and 1 from June 2010 (which in this case I already took); can we substitute that June one with a section from a different exam or just block it entirely?)
I started a masters degree program prior and finished about 60% of the degree, including a graduate certificate, with a 4.0 grade average. However, I quit and didn't finish the program about two years ago. I'm wondering if law schools will look at this negatively in the application process since they will get my transcript and see that I didn't finish this degree? Schools generally seem to allow supplemental essays to explain things like this, should I be including that in my application? There were many reasons I quit, mainly that I decided that career path wasn't for me after all (it was a masters in economics program, and I decided I didn't want to be in a math and computer coding heavy career).
I plan to take the August 2024 test without the Logic Games, is there any way to take all Games-related info out of my 7 sage to reduce clutter? Thanks
