we have over 149 members on this discord server, so there is probably a good chance that you'll find a group you'll fit into. We've already hit the ground running, would love to see all of you there. We have a study session scheduled for 2pm-4pm ET, and you can choose between LR room, LG room, and RC room. Hopefully one (or more) of our 149 members will join you in the struggle.
Here is the link: https://discord.gg/YWc9pVNC.
May the force be with you.
Highly doubt anyone would have this info but what is the average distribution of questions based on level of difficulty per section. For example (average 3 level 5s on LR, or 80% level 3 or below on LR).
Hello- Will 7Sage be coming out with a prep test module for test takers who plan to take the LSAT post August LG phase out?
While I was struggling with LR, I encountered and read Loophole by Ellen Cassidy. I am currently working on basic translation drill a training method introduced in the book; I read the LR passages and cover it up and write down or elaborate in my own words within 20 minutes for all stimuli in the section.
This, I find it very difficult since my English is secondary language, and it takes 1 hour to complete a section.
This method of training seems reasonable approach to conquer the LR in time but I wonder if this is something that can be improved.
Any advice or thoughts will be very appreciated.
Hey Guys,
I was wondering if any of you would be interested in forming a small PT group for these last three to 4 days to iron out things we have concerns about regarding our Prep.
Thanks
Hey everyone I am scoring at 150, but I want to get a 165 does anyone have any good suggestions for improving reading comprehension I usually get 12-14 correct on these sections.
Only the conclusion mentions importance

PrepTest A - Section 1 - Question 8
This is a MSS question
It is a comparison statement between Fossilized bones of R and E Hominids
R contains a lower ratio S/C than E
There is a negative correlation between the ratio and the meat in the diet.
And we know the E eats meat
A Correct We can suggest that R also eats meat, at least some, cause it has a smaller ratio than E
B We don't know the composition of S in either
C We don't know the composition of C in either
D We don't know the ratio in either
E We don't know this, is not stated.

I want to cancel my score using the Score Preview for First-Time Test Takers but does anyone know if this will also wipe my writing sample? I'm not keen on taking the writing portion again.
Hi everyone! I'm looking for a study group in the Bay Area, or over Zoom! Please reach out to me if you want to connect and study. I really need an accountability buddy LOL.
I'm aiming to take the September or October test (I just started studying) and would love to work alongside someone who's doing the same.
I'm taking the October Flex and will be studying full-time until then. My average is 162 and my goal score is 168 with a floor in the mid 160s. I'm starting to hit a wall around -7 RC, -5 LG, and -5 LR. If anyone else is in a similar place and would be interested in coordinating PTs so we can BR and review them together, please let me know. I'm planning to take PTs every other day until my test on October 8. I've been doing even numbered PTs and am up to PT70 so the schedule would probably consistent of even-numbered PTs from 72 to 88. Thanks!
I have one month until my exam and am consistently performing the worst on RC. Usually -7/8. My problem is, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. From everything I have read and what my tutor is telling me, I read the passage correctly and comprehend everything in it, doing a low res summary along the way, ID-ing the MP, and completing an analysis of where the authors voice is. I am doing this in 4 1/2 min too. However when it comes to the questions (particularly ones that ask me to make an inference or decide what the author might agree/disagree with) I struggle a lot and it takes upwards of 5 min. I've noticed that once I go back through and BR (reread the whole passage and do every question again) I usually get -1/0. Not sure if this is because I know what the questions will ask and therefore where to focus in the passage or if I'm less stressed about time or something. I don't know how to improve or even where I'm going wrong. Help !!
Is it just my laptop or LSAT Flex cannot be full-screen on test day? I mainly use Lawhub for PT which should be the exact same format. While during practice Lawhub allows the browser to be expanded to full-screen, on my August LSAT test it can't, which took me a while to readjust. On the test day, the screen would just look like a window size with black margins surrounding it. Any thoughts?
I'm really intent on going to a law school where I live because of family factors/etc. I take the LSAT in October and expect to be at least at their 75th percentile for LSAT and far above their 75th percentile for GPA. The financial aspect is really important to me so I'm curious how I should navigate the application process. Do I apply to other schools and use their offers to negotiate? Do I apply early in the cycle or later on? What do you think is best considering I know where I want to go and just want to see what they can offer me?
TIA! :)
Hellooo,
I guess I wanted to send a discussion to see if this would be a good idea for not.
So background info, I have already completed all my applications back in September because I wanted to only focus on my LSAT and not worry about my applications. So all my schools are simply just waiting for my LSAT score to begin looking into my applications. I’m in a position where I’m only working on my mental psyche bc test anxiety is real for me. Based on all my Pts I’m scoring between 153-160 but I really want to score above 160 to be competitive applicant due to my non competitive GPA. I have confidence in all my other applicant materials but I know there’s importance to the numbers (GPA/LSAT). I decided to also sign up for the January LSAT for a backup if i’m not statified with the score I receive. But i’m debating on either just leaving whatever score on my Nov I get and see what schools decide i’m good enough even with my average scores or canceling it/ leaving it and then working on my January test and if schools decide to make a decision prior to my new test score or wait for it.
If i decide to want to wait for my January score, even though I’ve already done applications, how does that work? Will schools hold back and wait? or will they make a decision and then determine if waiting for a January score is worth it?
I’m sure reaching out to my schools i’ve applied to and seeing what’s the best way to move forward is a good option but I have a tendency to think ahead to prevent a mental break down on Nov 29th lol
Any advice helps!
Hello everyone,
I have a question regarding test dates and time. I was looking at the schedule for the June test and noticed there were 3 test dates: June 12, 13 and 15. Does anyone know why this is? And will this is be same for the other tests too?
Also, I'm planning to take the test in Ontario, Canada, but I don't know the starting time for the test. Is it usually 7AM or 9AM?
Thank you in advance!

Help!!!
So I scored a 158 on the August LSAT, which is a little below my average score of 160. Though I am happy with my score, I most definitely feel like I could have scored in the 160's if I hadn't struggled with a game that I'm almost certain I didn't score -0, which is what I usually score. I've already taken the LSAT 3 times, so October would be my 4th and I'm at a point of burnout tbh. Right now, I'm wrapping up my essays and I was really hoping to apply as early as possible because I know that I will most likely be a reverse splitter at every school I apply to since I have a 4.0 GPA.
Part of me is saying retake, another is saying will 2/3 points really make a difference, and even then, if I don't get the 160, I'll be applying later than I hoped.
For reference, I have a 4.0 GPA, graduated a year early with a B.S. and 2 minors, I have more than a year of legal experience working at a law firm, an extensive resume with extracurricular activities and awards, and I genuinely think my essays will stand out (although I'm sure most of us think this anyways). The only weak point in my application will be my LSAT, but I'm not looking to apply to any of the schools in the top 40 (looking at regional schools in Texas and bordering states). Any advice would help!

Hello everyone,
I am taking the LSAT on November 10th. What are some great free resources and what is the most effective way to study? I am a husband and father of two under two. I am also currently an MBA student.
Hello! I'm looking for an RC tutor. This is the one section I have been struggling with and cannot seem to improve on.

Has anyone applied early decision to their first choice law school and received an email from the dean of admission? I'm wondering if this is a good sign. If anyone has an experience like this please please let me know.
Is anyone else developing a crazy love/hate relationship with Autofill in the apps? It's nice to have certain fields populate, but man, be careful because it can create mistakes if you don't watch it like a hawk.
