Hi!

I am working my way through the core curriculum and see that a lot of PTs now say that 1-2+ questions have been taken from them. I don't want to limit how many PTs I can take and also don't want to pull questions from the PTs in the new format so that I can accurately assess what scores to expect. Is there a way I can drill without pulling questions from the new form PTs?

I keep seeing posts on making study group for the DMV area, but no one ever creates one. So I just did. Here's the telegram group link:

or you can search the group by just writing LSATDC

Let's keep this group to students that are studying for the April/June tests only please. So it'll make it easier for everyone to keep track and progress together. Thanks

Hello,

I just started my journey and wish to take the LSAT in august. I am still in the foundations yet when I do drill sets I get complex level drills about flaw questions and when I click explanation its like 17 minute videos and they say "as mentoned in the core curriculum". So my question is, should I wait to finish more of the course then tackle drill sets or keep doing them even if I havent learned how to solve them?

I took my first diagnostic this past Saturday and wanted to know when I should take my next practice test. I have been working through the foundational lessons and was wondering if I should wait until I complete them before taking another practice test.

I've been struggling the most with conditional reasoning questions, and have rewatched the lessons a couple times and done some drilling but still don't understand. I take the LSAT in a little over a month, does anybody have some suggestions for a quick way to improve on these?

I had the pleasure of working with Yara from 7Sage, and I cannot recommend her highly enough. She is incredibly knowledgeable, kind, and has a unique ability to break down complex concepts in a way that other tutors I’ve worked with never could. For anyone struggling with the LSAT, she is an invaluable resource.

The 7Sage platform has been instrumental in my LSAT journey, providing outstanding support and guidance. Working with Yara and the company has been an amazing experience.

Hello! I'm doing a late night study sesh on 7 Sage, and the drilling section keeps refreshing and reloading-- I can't even access the explanation videos right now. Is anyone else having difficulties?

According to LSAC’s accommodations page, I have the necessary paperwork for approval of 50% extra time. However, since I have not yet registered, I have not been officially granted the accommodation. Given this, should I take my prep tests with the 50% extra time or stick to the standard 35 minutes? I plan to take the LSAT in August 2025.

Even though I'm going slow and parsing out passages, often times I get W, S, E questions wrong because I'm not making the same kinds of assumptions they make to get to that answer choice. Maybe it's also because I just started W,S,E questions like a week ago in the CC, so it's still a little new to me. What has helped you most with making reasonable assumptions? The assumptions explained in the lessons sometimes feel very arbitrary.

The shocking moment you're going through a passage, and totally certain you're going to get at least half the answers wrong but end up getting a perfect score. I closed my laptop and went to bed.

Just a PSA (but especially for girlies): Narcissistic abuse literally damages your brain and interferes with your reasoning and critical thinking abilities, processing speed, and memory. I went from being consistently getting around 95 percent correct to a much more variable percentage. Please preserve your brain power for studying for this test. Gaslighting can affect your ability to gauge the strength of premises, for example. Your goal is to figure out the validity of the arguments on the LSAT instead of the validity of someone's son's lies. Abusive people force you to reason like them, which does not translate to the best results on the LSAT. Having to sift through 27 lies a day is equivalent to the mental load of doing 27 extra practice questions that actually make you worse instead of better.

Some questions if anyone can help!

How similar is the interface and format to 7sage in general and to the Standard Font option on pts? For instance can I hide the timer? Are all the buttons for underlining, flagging, etc. in the same spots?

During the 2 minute breaks, can I get up?

Can I sip coffee while I'm taking the test or only during the breaks?

Can I eat while I'm taking the test or only during the breaks?

During the 10 minute break, can I for instance go to another room in my house to get food or brew coffee? Are there things I can't do during the break?

Thanks!

I'm looking to meet with others who are taking the test soon ( June / August )in the Boston area. I'm located near Framingham but open to commute / zoom meetings to create a more engaging environment preparing for the LSAT. My PT's are in the high 160s and want to be around others who are inspiring to do well on their upcoming test. Besides solo study, I think it's vital to have a group who keeps each other accountable in their journey. PM / leave a message here.
