I been going to the lessons library and expend lessons to find the flagged ones. Is there an easier way?

Hello everyone! I have recently started to study for the LSAT, and I am taking it in August. I have not taken a full PT since my diagnostic (166). However, I have been taking full-length sections and averaging -1 on LR and -2 on RC. I am from the Bay Area and would love a study partner around the 170's as well to study with me this summer. Let me know!
Hi everyone! I’m looking for a consistent online study partner for the September LSAT.
I am currently studying from 10am-4pm CST and would love someone to check in with daily. I'm hoping we can support each other, keep each other accountable and motivated, and review questions and section together.
I'm located in the greater Houston, TX area and would be open to meeting in person if anyone happens to be local.
Please reach out if you think we would be a good fit!
Wrong answer journaling, the process of explaining and reviewing your wrong answers, helped me go from a 155 diagnostic to a 177. This was the deciding factor in getting a full scholarship to a T-25 law school (because it definitely wasn't my 3.3, well below median GPA lol).
I wanted to take some time to explain 5 methods of wrong answer journaling that might help you review and see the questions in different ways.
1. Explain every wrong answer, not just the one you got wrong
This is probably one of the most helpful ways you can increase your understanding and depth around each question. You definitely want to understand your own individual wrong answer choice, but if you can go the extra mile and understand why every single wrong answer choice is wrong, you'll be that much better on guard against similar choices in the future.
2. Visualize the problem
This can actually be pretty helpful for taking the test in the first place, but drawing things out has been helpful in the past when I'm having trouble visualizing what's actually happening in the stimulus.
You can use the annotation tool to do this on www.lsatjournal.com to save diagrams to each entry as of... well, yesterday.
3. Summarize and break down the stimulus
Sometimes, you just weren't able to translate the stimulus into its most basic logic. Maybe it was a specific word or confusing phrasing that tripped you up. Logging every time this happens and writing down the simplified version of the stimulus can do wonders for your overall "translation" ability.
4. Come up with a "lesson" for that particular problem, and turn it into a flashcard
I like to think about every single wrong answer as a critical lesson. Sometimes, that lesson shows up across multiple problems that you get wrong. That's the point at which it becomes your own mistake pattern that you want to identify and defend against.
I would have ongoing lessons and add the new question ID on a flashcard every time I made the mistake - this helped me keep a running list of all of my major issues so that I could be mindful of eliminating things on a pattern level instead of just an individual problem level.
5. Take a break
This is less related to wrong answer journaling and more to what effective review looks like in general. If you're getting to the point where you're making the same mistakes and burning yourself out, sometimes just a few days or a week off can help your brain reset and internalize all of the work you've already been doing.

Anyways, good luck out there y'all. And I hope this helps in your study journey.
Hello, I am down for partnered up wth people in Chicago who are willing to study. I am available from 6pm weekends.
Hi! I'm unable to click on answers in the new interface RC drill. I've been doing RC drills w the new UI and haven't had an issue before, but today I can't click on or cross off answers. I didn't see a button for "stop passage time tracking" (the way the drills in current Lawhub version do); lmk if I'm missing something.
I was just wondering, when law schools (specifically in USA), calculate GPA, do they just look at the letter grades and convert that using that LSAC scale and ignore the percentages? And if so doesn't that give an advantage to schools where an A+ is a 90% instead of the high 90s?
Hi all, I have finally reached the clarity of mapping RC out for structure as opposed to content and wanted to know how I could maximize this approach while still pacing during the section(s)?
Many thanks
I find tutor responses in the comment sections for specific questions really helpful. It would be great if I had the option to filter to see only those when I got to the comment section.
Hi !!! I am looking to make a big improvement score-wise in the next few months and would love some people to study with/motivate each other. I'm EST located in NYC, and am open to online calls but would be down for in person too! My PT was a 154 and I'm looking to break into the low 170s. if you have similar goals, lmk!! :)
Hello! I saw that the drills assigned for homework have customizable settings. Are there any specific setting that we should be using? And is it recommended to manually select questions that align with the topics taught during the week? Thank you!
On practice result pages and the all questions page, we offer "Timing vs. target" and "practice timing" filters:
Do you use these? Which ones? When do you use them, and why? I'm especially eager to hear from users who have timing accommodations. Thanks!
I think it would be helpful if there were a feature that told us which lesson to review based on our top priorities. For example, let's say next to my top priority question type to review, it would suggest I review a specific lesson.
I am working on an LSAT schedule that will allow me to take my practice tests on Saturdays. However with the current features, it seems that you are not able to individualize the practice blocks yourself. Is there a way to add something similar to this? It would be very helpful!
Do you like PrepTest equivalent? Do you find it useful? Please let me know in the comments.
To get ahead of questions:
How does PrepTest Equivalent work?
Rather than just scaling up your wrong answers, we use the difficulty of each specific question (calibrated on years of 7Sage data) to find the 120–180 score that best explains which ones you got right and wrong. (This is a form of Item Response Theory, the method behind standardized-test scoring).
How accurate is it?
It's reliable for full sections, but fuzzier for drills. The shorter the drill, the rougher the estimate.
Hi everyone!
I am aiming to write the test for the first time this August and am hoping for above 165. However, I would be happy with anything remotely close to score as well (162-170). I am planning to write the September exam as well, just to give myself another few weeks after the August date to see if I can improve.
For reference, I have been studying about 10-15 hours a week fairly consistently since around mid February. Most of my studying up until this point has been going through the 7Sage curriculum, reading The Loophole by Ellen Cassidy, picking at the Kaplan LSAT prep book, and I have been working with a tutor to hone in my reading comp/logic skills for the past 3 weeks.
I feel like I have been fairly successful in bringing up my score. Two years ago I wrote a diagnostic and only scored a (devastating) 127. This past December, I decided to try again and managed to get a 143. Since February, I have put in around 170 hours of studying and have managed to bring my score up to mid to high 150s on practice tests and sections. On blind reviews I routinely get into the mid to high 160s, and sometimes the 170s.
With only 2 months left till August, the countdown is on and I am open to any tips you may have on how to effectively break into the 160s before August!!!!
Basically, I have used all of the RC material that's available for drills and sections. That wouldn't bother me at all if I knew for a fact that I can still improve regardless of whether I've seen the passages before or not. However, I don't really know how to feel about it. For example, I just finished a section and got the best score I've ever gotten, but I don't know if it's because I had read those passages before or because RC finally clicked for me. I will admit that I don't really remember any of the answers to the questions that were being asked, so I felt as if I was answering them myself, but at the same time I did have a tiny little notion of what the passages were about, and I felt like going through them was a lot easier because I had already read the passages before...
So, because I've never gotten a score higher than 161, I was wondering if some other people experienced this issue before and if that fact stopped them from progressing or if they were able to get better despite it. And if so, then do you mind sharing some tips? For example, now that I have read some of these passages, what should I focus on? What can I do in order to make sure that I am still improving? How can I feel confident that whatever result I get is mine alone and not just previous knowledge? Any information would be super useful.
When I'm on normal color scheme, I see buttons (such as to flag/hide and unhide answers) change colors when clicked. However, on an accessible color scheme the buttons are the same color, making it difficult to see whether I am on answer mode or masking mode.
Could this be implemented?
Has this happened to anyone else?
one day I’m drilling and my scores are fine, improving even. Then say a few days later, I’m drilling again and they are worse then ever.
Here’s what specifically happened to me:
Last Tuesday so 5/26 I was drilling a category of LR questions that need the most attention. I drilled 10 questions (on the “harder” difficulty setting) and managed to score a 7/10. I was extremely happy. (Yes I do review my wrong answers)
Then I took the next few days off from the LSAT And grinded for hours (at least 5-7 hrs) each day to with the goal of completing my 3 summer classes early so I can focus entirely on the LSAT.
Today I just got back to LSAT studying, (so about 5 days off from LSATS) and did terrible with my drills. Same category, same difficulty. Horrible scores. For some reason today when I got back to LSAT prep it was like my mind wasn’t sharp like it was before, it also felt like I couldn’t comprehend the words I was reading much less apply them critically.
Everyone online says that scores fluctuating can be a sign of burnout and that you need to take a break and basically allow your brain to take in the knowledge and whatnot.
But I did take a break, at least from LSAT stuff. For those 5 days I didn’t work on LSATS at all. Just my normal class work.
So I’m extremely confused and rather discouraged.
Has this happened to anyone else? I can’t afford to separate my time into 1 day studying the next 5 no studying you know?
Does anyone have any tips? Experience? Literally ANYTHING
Hello! I am potentially going to postpone the exam, and I have already done so before. I am not scoring exactly where I want to be yet. Is it bad to postpone the exam or should I just go ahead and take it?
Thank you!

I'm almost 3 months into my studies and my best PT is 159 untimed. Any tips on improving LR stamina and speed? I start disassociating after the first section and my focus just plummets. I can't even attempt timed PTs yet; I have never finished a section and attempted all questions. Any study tips or ways to improve focus and not experience cognitive overload? I'm trying to slowly build it up and focusing on fundamentals but wondering if there's ways to speed up the process.
For context, my diagnostic was 139 so I know I'm improving. My biggest issue isn't understanding every question but maintaining focus and processing information efficiently for multiple sections. Did anyone else struggle with this? What can help build endurance and transition from untimed accuracy to timed performance?
What’s up, my 7Sagers!

Hello,
I’ve taken 3 PTs in the last 3 weeks in preparation for the June test, and I have got a 158 each time. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind this score. I think it’s ok and it’s absolutely better than previous scores I’ve got (including my 156 for the April test), but I am trying to figure out how to improve on it before next weekend. I know that’s not much time but I ran into timing issues with the last PT and just felt so fatigued that I knew I didn’t do well on the rest. I truly think I can get my score up to a 165, but what I’m wondering is if there are any tips or tricks out there that people have to suggest either preparation wise or test taking wise. I can put the time in, I’ve taken multiple PTs, I’ve done the core curriculum (or most of it), I just want to know what else I can do to push past the high 150s. I might retake in August but if I can do well enough this weekend to avoid that, that would be ideal. Thanks!
