I really like the new score goal setting for the analytics (thanks!), but having taken over 2,000 questions it's really hard to gauge how much I'm actually improving, since moving the percentages takes a ton questions. If there was a way to see how I've performed over the last 2 weeks (or any user defined amount of time) in my analytics, in combination with how that aims towards the goal score, I think that would give me a better idea of how i look at this moment, as opposed to including a bunch of data from when i was really bad at this stuff.

Confidence When Blind Reviewing

Any suggestions with not second-guessing yourself when doing the reccommended blind reviews? I got -5 before blind reviewing and then got -9 after. I picked 6 wrong answers during blind review that I got the correct answer for originally. I took my time during the section so I was confident and then saw all the reccomendations for blind review and went downhill. I'm getting closer to test date and I'm second guessing everything now. I think it's the anxiety of testing soon but I'd love to know tips.

Score Preview

This is super last minute seeming as I have a couple hours to make the decision, if I only want to pay $45, but would score preview be worth it. I take the test tomorrow and I took a practice test and scored 156, ... this is my first time taking the test so regardless I would want to retake it, but would it be better to keep my score, assuming I do get a 156. Or if I retake it and score better would it not matter. I thought i decided against buying it but i think too much lol, any advice is helpful

Should we import your LawHub PrepTests by default?

You can import your LawHub PrepTests in your settings.

Should we auto-import your PrepTests by default? For example, we could periodically check if you have LawHub PrepTests and import them in the background, with a setting to opt out of this behavior.

To put the question another way, should LawHub import be opt-in (status quo) or opt-out?

November LSAT

I have all of my applications ready to submit. However, I wanted to give the LSAT one last shot, November will be my third time taking it. However, I was advised to submit my law apps mid October, notify the admissions boards that I am submitting my application but registered for the November LSAT and that my score will update with enough time for them to consider it before responding to my application. Is this an okay timeline or bad move?

Hey, quick question for anyone who studies 4–6 hrs a day for the LSAT. I have the time to do that, but I’m not sure what people are actually doing for so long. A timed section is only 35 min, and review doesn’t take me that much longer. Do you just drill questions for hours? Take a full test every day?

If anyone can share a breakdown of what their study schedule looks like for that many hours, I’d love to see it.

hey everyone. I started studying a couple months ago going through the whole curriculum and now I'm just drilling until i take the lsat in approximately a month.

overall i feel pretty good about my RC and some of my LR. but when it comes to anything related to sufficiency necessary, contrapositives, lawgic, diagramming, etc. I feel absolutely hopeless and clueless.

For example, I did PT136.S4.Q20 recently and I got it wrong and when I went to check the correct answer and explanation, I felt so lost. There was nothing I could even write down in my wrong answer journal.

Figuring out what's sufficient what's necessary, taking the contrapositive correctly then diagramming and chaining together conditionals in the stimulus and then doing so for each answer choice. It seems like something I could never do. I just don't even know where to start.

not only does missing these questions and not being able to understand them conceptually hurt my confidence with LR, I feel like its affecting my performance elsewhere. It's massively damaged my confidence in my ability to score well on the LSAT as whole.

I've looked online for resources and help, but every time someone tries to explain these concepts they do it in the easiest way possible that I feel doesn't carry over to the LSAT.

Yes, I am capable of understanding that being a dog is sufficient to being a mammal, and being a mammal is necessary for being a dog. But it's never that simple in an actual question on the LSAT.

i guess my point with this post, besides just venting, is to ask what resources have you found helped you in understanding formal logic, as it relates to questions on the LSAT?

November LSAT

Hey everyone! I'm Will from Toronto Canada and I will be writing the LSAT this November so I intend to stick to an extensive 4-6 hours/day schedule. Reach out if you're nearby, want to keep each other in check or just to bounce questions off each other!

Week Lock In for Oct LSAT

guyssss my test is on saturday >> what would you recommend is the best way to really lock in and get a good preparation (ideally other than just taking a thousand PTs bc i feel like those tire you out more than really help). anyone have any good encouragement and study schedule for this last week thank youuu <3

Hi all at 7sage,

I know you all have said you're working on letting accommodated test takers (and anyone who desires it) remove the experimental/any section from analytics consideration, but I just wanted to throw my hat in the ring that this is urgent. My analytics are literally nearly unusable because they count my experimental which I do not do. I have the accommodation and cannot practice under my test conditions AND have accurate analytics at the same time. This makes 7sage's usefulness very low in terms of just the infrastructure of drilling, for me. I'm hoping this can be a top priority for myself and others with accommodations, but I know you have a lot on your plate, and am grateful for everything you're doing as well as for your continual improvements.

Thanks!

Stamina

Does anyone have any advice for stamina? I do way better on drills than I do on full PT's because my brain turns to mush. I'm getting 3-4 more questions wrong on practice tests than when I do individual sections!

😖 Frustrated

hELp mE

I am at the point where I am seen almost every practice question and I even hit 160s a week ago but I am dipping back into the 150s. I got a few sessions of tutoring (which helped) but I feel like there is always something I am messing up.

I really thought I got RC but even with BR I get 5-8 qns wrong. In LR, I am also super all over the place but on a good day I am getting 3-5 wrong and on a bad day 5-8.

Is this fluctuation natural? I am taking LSAT next week and I know I am capable of getting 170s if I put it all together but I just don't know how to use my last week of studying to maximize that. I feel like I am past the point of drilling so I stick to practicing entire sections but I don't even know what will work and I feel SO hopeless.

Free Law Hub

My Fee Waiver expired for LawHub but is still valid for 7sage. I can't access anything here without a lawhub subscription and I can't afford it. What should I do?

This Thursday at 8PM I'm opening the floodgates and showing off some of the most successful law school applications from last year. I'll be breaking down personal statements from applicants who beat their numbers and got into top schools below at least one median.

These aren't "the best personal statements I've seen (from people who had great numbers anyway.)" These are real essays that made a measurable difference for people who worked with 7Sage last year. Some of their approaches might surprise you!

Join me live this Thursday, September 18th at 8PM ET

I'm also going to be spending part of the hour reviewing personal statements submitted by you. If you'd like me to consider giving your personal statement draft a free live review on air, you can submit it here.

  1. On this new website, I do not like how you cannot see the time stamp as the video is playing. Like you aren't able to skip forward and put where you want to watch, as the video is playing.

  2. I wish you would have the total time it took you to drill when you are going over your answers.

The expected accuracy feature, which plays into analytics and priority tags, makes no sense. Say I have consistently scored 155-160 on all of my PTs, but my goal score is a 170, how am I supposed to reach that if it's giving me priorities based on other people in my current score range??? It could say that I have a "low priority' for a specific tag, just because I'm on level with people in my range, but if that range is lower than I am aiming for, it's not a low priority. This feature should be completely overhauled with the option to specifically choose a score range goal, and then it shows the accuracy needed to obtain that range.

If I am misunderstanding something, please help explain JY #feedback
