Feeling Unproductive..

So I finished the 7Sage course after 5 weeks and started my Preptests this week. The schedule has me doing two Preptests a week until the June LSAT.

During the course I was jam packed with work everyday. And this week after doing my first PrepTest on Monday I leisurely finished up Blind Review and a second review of my incorrect answers by Wednesday ( I could have finished it all by Tuesday). Anyway, I'm starting to feel a bit unproductive, coming off the last month of working really hard on the course.

Is there something else I can add, besides doing another Preptest a week? The schedule has me completing 36-71 by June.

Anything inexpensive that I can use to hone LSAT skills during the extra time during the week? Review the course?

or .... what am I doing wrong?

Thanks

Hey everyone, we rolled out a new feature recently that lets you share your LSAT results with others. You can find it at http://classic.7sage.com/review-lsat-share/.

Why do I want to share my results?

If you share your results with study buddies, you can help one another see what you need to work on. Makes studying more collaborative and interactive.

Share with your tutor and they'll have the most in-depth information on your LSAT strengths and weaknesses available anywhere. Maximize the impact of your tutor.

Are you awesome at the LSAT? Post on the forum offering to provide feedback to anyone who shares their results with you. It's a great way to help others out and show off your expertise.

How do I share my results?

Go to: http://classic.7sage.com/review-lsat-share/ and enter the email address of the person you would like to share your results with in the bottom right where it says "Share with:". This will give them access to your results.

If you want access to someone else's results, enter their email where it says "Request sharing with:".

What if the person I want to share with doesn't have an account?

No problem, we can send them an email letting them know you want to share your results. They'll get a link to sign up for free and access your results.

Looking for someone to study with for the June 2014 LSAT. I've been studying awhile for this test, so I have most of the concepts down. I'm in the Midwest, so please consider different time zones. Thanks.

Retaking LSAT

I am planning to take the LSAT this June 2014, I took the LSAT in December and after studying for a year I went from a diagnostic of 139 to a score of 155(Dec 13). I used Blueprint, Manhattan, Powerscore and of course 7sage. I am wondering how can I use 7sage to continue my studies and reach my goal of 160+? Is this a good idea?

Hey guys, I'm starting my Preptests tomorrow and have a couple questions.

I'm assuming when taking Preptests, no one guesses on the answers left blank after time runs out? Just making sure.

And do you submit two scores into the 7Sage Scorer? What you finished and then Blind Review?

I just want to get an idea of what everyone's routine is

I'm thinking

1. Take Preptest

2. Check Score

3. Blind Review

4. Check Blind Review Score

Sound about right?

Sudoku fans?

I was just wondering if anyone else likes doing sudoku games. I used to think that Sudokus are only for people nearing the age for Alzheimer's, but it's actually pretty fun and they share some similarities with LG sections. Just a recommendation for anyone trying to do something productive while taking breaks!

Easy Way to Print PDFs

So if you are like me, I find it a pain in the butt to open each individual PDF for each section and have to go through the printing process for each one. Not that its terrible, but there is an easier way. I download all the PDFs for each section all at once. You can then to go this site : http://merge.smallpdf.com/ and drag all the PDFs to that section and they will merge them all into one document! I find it especially helpful on the logic games. Its also an easier way to store them in a folder so you can easily go back and print them without going through the lessons and redownloading.

Hope this helps someone!

Plan B - Just in case

Hello everyone,

this is my first post, so go easy on me.

I am assuming that everyone here wants to become an attorney, so I just wanted to pose a question, which has been on my mind for the last couple of days.

Question: If you were to not make it as an attorney, for whatever reason (e.g difficulty in job placement), what would your back up "dream career" be?

I will go first, personally I have two dream careers tied for first place, which are 1) Cyber Crime Detective 2) Becoming an entrepreneur in a tech related field (Sort of like J.Y)

@ J.Y Don't worry I don't plan on making a site for the lsat.

Support Group for Beginners

Hi all!!!

I'm on week 3 of a 19week study schedule. I'm going through little by little and Im on schedule. Some concepts have been easier than others to grasp right away.

I'd like to hear about your(newbies and veterans) experiences. I feel a bit overwhelmed sometimes that I wont beable to remember everything in the curriculum. haha

questions of interest:

1) is it more important to stay on the study schedule or to ensure that we have a very strong grasp on the material before moving to the next topic?

2) what are you doing in addition to watching the videos of the core curriculum?

Thank you!

Approach

Hey everyone! Hope all who took the February test did well! So I self studied for the December test with powerscore, found 7sage at the very very end and used the free resources. Now I will be taking the June test, I purchased the medium priced package here because I loved the free materials when studying for December as well as the BR approach. Now I have a question, I used up a lot of the practice tests because I assumed I would only be taking the LSAT once, I haven't done any tests from the 40s, a couple from the 50s, and then maybe 2 very recent tests. Now I'm planning on taking all the tests included with my plan, should I take them out of order and take the ones I've done before first? Leaving the fresh ones before test day, or the other way around? Thanks!

A lesson in Life

To all who study this test,

As I first started to study the LSAT I was immediately drawn to my score. Even after one week of practice I was so concerned with a 160 that I would pause the timer, spend an extra 3 minutes on a curve breaker question then continue the test. This practice method showed me that I was capable of a 165 however, I was not practicing like it was the real thing.

When I was taking the Dec. LSAT, I immediately became nervous and flustered that time was slipping by and there was no option to pause for a question. By not feeling in control of the test, the test controlled me.

I received my score of 152 and as it is disappointing, this mark couldn't be more of a blessing. In life much like the LSAT, failure will come and obstacles will seem tiresome and daunting. The key is to reaffirm faith and believe that the light is at the end of the tunnel. This mark showed me how bad I want to study law and I realize that I can handle failure but I can't handle giving up. What I realize now is that no matter how bad your PT's are, you will grow and succeed for when the real test comes. I hope this little informative shows you that there are no short-cuts for success and I found this out the hard way. I hope everyone can understand that a score today does not mean the same score tomorrow...now go get that score you want.

reading comp practice sets?

Hi 7sagers,

I feel as thought having the ability to practice RC sections indivdually would help greatly. As I am going through PTS, after each one, i think about what went wrong and practice to improve it. this could be like a certain type of game, or type of qustions (i.e. most strongly supported). Id like to be able to have a bunch of old RC sets to practice with in hopes of improving timing. 7sage doesn't offer such adons or include them in updated packages. Has anyone bought something like this anywhere?

Thanks,

Jake

Hi Everyone,

I am hoping to find a study buddy for the June 2014 test. I will not be able to meet in-person so it would have to be done via skype (ideally), over the phone, or any other forms of telecommunications :)

Please send me an email (natalya.kitchin@gmail.com) if you would be interested and we can discuss the details to see if it could work. Thanks so much!!

Happy studying everyone!

Natalya

Hi All,

I am just starting my studies for the June 2014 LSAT. I have signed up for the Ultimate Course and am excited to begin. I do, however, have a question about the extent of the materials used in the "practice" sections. Are all LSATs from 1 - 35 used for the various drills? If not, does anyone have suggestions on which additional materials I should purchase to use for drilling the various sections?

Thanks!
