I have been studying with 7Sage for the last 4 months and improved my diagnostic from 148 to a 170 yesterday (pt83). Please feel free to reach out for questions about study schedule or my process. Happy to help!

These logical reasoning questions make me feel so stupid! It makes so much sense afterwards but not in the moment. I don't know how i'm going to get a strategy down that will make me see this in the moment and before I make the mistake. I need a foolproof strategy for this! Anyone got any tips or methods they've found helpful? Please message me! I'd love to bounce ideas off of one another for LR and become study buddies.

I have purchased 7sage, and purchased LawHub advantage directly on the site, but I keep getting this message:

"Sorry, your account must be linked to an active LSAC LSAT LawHub Advantage account to access licensed materials. Link your account to continue your access.

You successfully linked 7Sage to your LSAC account, however your LSAC account does not have an active LawHub Advantage subscription. Please purchase or renew LawHub Advantage on your LSAC account directly from LSAC by logging into lawhub.lsac.org, then tapping on your name in the top right corner, then “Upgrade to LawHub Advantage.”

I never received any link on my email receipts when I purchased LawHub advantage. I am extremely frustrated because these are not cheap!

Hey all,

My name is Blake and I'm just starting my LSAT journey recently - was wondering if there was anybody in the Lexington, KY area (by the University of Kentucky) who would be interested in forming a group either online or in person.

Looking for a joint study partner. Stuck in the mid-160s on PTs, and I think having another person to talk thru approaches, drills, and individual questions could be mutually beneficial. Aiming for the August Test so unfortunately don't think I'll be much help to our LG test takers in June - just focusing on LR/RC

LA traffic makes things more difficult than other cities, but open to meeting on the west side after work on weekdays, and could perhaps make it out to somewhere in Orange County on certain weekends.

i'm curious if you could still actually study and practice logic games even after they remove this section from the test. i find learning and practicing these problems are very beneficial in developing analytical skills for law and other aspects of life. i'm not very good at these under time pressure but appreciate the challenge and feel good about showing improvement in my practice scores.

Hi all,

I took the April 2024 LSAT and am going to retake in August. As such I am going to switch over to the new syllabus and I am looking for some guidance on the following. Any help is appreciated!

I already went through most of the LR curriculum but I am considering redoing it. Is it substantially different and worth taking from the top? Or mostly the same?

I noticed that when you switch over all of the drill questions and prep tests are now marked untaken. Is this completely fresh material or is it reusing questions from the old syllabus. My concern is that when I switch over I will be repeating questions and there will be no indication whether or not I have taken them before. This also effects my drilling strategy going forward.

If anybody has switched between the two already and has any guidance it would be much appreciated!

Hi,

I plan on taking the August LSAT began studying for the LSAT in March of this year, doing roughly one hour a day since I was busy, and taking a break in April because of other issues. I took one diagnostic and scored a 140. Is it realistic to attempt to score a 160 by August? What do you think I should do.

Have heard that international LSATS use previously undisclosed LSAT exams. Since the most recent LSATs in the past two years have been much more difficult and with harder curves, would this mean that the international LSAT is therefore slightly easier than the U.S. one.

This is pure speculation on my part but I believe that it may be the case.

Help!!

Hi everyone. I have been studying for the lsat for more than 2 1/2 years now. My highest score was a 175 and I am usually scoring between 165-169. I took the April Lsat and scored a 159 :(. I don't know where to go from here now. Im really solid in LR and LG, but Reading Comp kills my score, consistently getting -7. Can anyone help me, or is anyone interested in being a study buddy?

I tried to do some drills today and found I could not because I do not have Lawhub Advantage. Please do not tell me I will run into the same trouble when I finally take a practice test.... Lawhub Advantage is $115 7Sage 2nd tier subscription is $99. Why am I paying for the same thing twice. This is extremely frustrating. I have yet to complete one step of applying to law school without dropping a minimum of $100 to progress to the next "step"

I am about to take my second LSAT in June, and just finished my junior year of undergraduate and plan to start applying this October. I was hoping someone would be able to answer my question: When should I request my transcript through LSAC? I was just curious as to how long to wait or if I should do it as soon as possible, but my senior year grades and classes would not be reflected so I am a little confused.

Hi,

This is a question about an answer choice like that of PT62 S2 Q20.

It's: The younger a universe is, the brighter the stars are.

Do these relationships work similarly like conditionals, in that only after concluding that the universe is younger, we can say the brighter its stars are?

i.e. you can't see a situation that the stars are brighter, therefore conclude that the universe is younger with this type of relationship?

Thank you.

Hi 7Sagers-- I'm sharing my story in case it helps with others gritting their teeth to push past plateaus, crushed by the weight of their own expectations. Since I was a kid, it has always been my dream to become an attorney. But I paused that dream after college in order to enter the workforce and financially provide for my family. Like many of you, this test terrified me. I took my diagnostic and scored a 145. But deep down, I knew I wanted a 170. I read many online forums that claimed that such a score jump is impossible.

I worked long hours with multiple jobs and I barely had time to sleep. The routine of working full time, studying at night, and maintaining my mental and physical health was a Herculean effort. I took two different courses, eventually landing on the holy grail of 7Sage. But my PT scores were erratic, often plummeting down along with my confidence and self-worth. I scoffed at stories of people suggesting that 3-6 months of studying was enough. Two years have passed for me and I only increased 10-15 points.

With the help of 7Sage tutors, I scored a 166. I jumped up and down in joy. But every time I hit the ground, I felt in my stomach that I wasn't done. I felt as if I didn't reach my goal of 170, I won't be able to face my other ambitious, nearly-impossible career goals. I must defeat this last boss monster in front of me. I must push this Sisyphean boulder past this mountain slope, no matter how many times I fall.

I was tired. I hated this test. I made a hard decision to defer law school for another year even though I was nearly five years past undergrad. But I took a four month break from the test. Refreshed, I began studying for several more months. This April, I finally got the 170. Three years of infinite drilling, crying at the desk, saying 'no' to friends, all paid off.

Please don't give up. Take a break. Come back. Don't rush the process.

You are Sisyphus. Except in this story, the boulder will fall over the mountain.

I took a college course at an accredited university over the summer of 2022 but it was a part of an internship program and required. I got a grade for it but never transferred then credits and it did not apply to my gpa, do I still need to submit the transcript to lsac?
