Hello - this is a miserable cry for help after scoring very low in the recent PTs. I am planning to take the Nov LSAT in 2 weeks, and I am nowhere near my score, after studying for 5 months.
I am a student with average timed PT score of 156-159 (I have only one time reached 160, which was my highest). I have started studying for LSAT from this June (though was quite light on it throughout July), then started really working in August. On average, I studied about 3-4 hours a day, 6 days a week.
For 3 months, I've been doing either an LR section or an RC section per day, with one PT a week. For PTs, I always did blind review (which gave me around 167). For every question that I get wrong, I would thoroughly describe it in my wrong answer journal (so far have 700 questions written in WAJ).
The problem is, I've been focusing on PT 120 - 140s, and have just moved onto doing PT 150s, and I've been consistently scoring 156, from my usual score of 159 in the previous older PTs. I am aiming for a score of 166, and I am 10 points away, which is quite huge.
I am so frustrated to not see any improvements, and I am lacking self-esteem at this point. I usually do much better at LR than RC. I have trouble understanding the overall context in RC, as English is my second language, and this has also been destroying my confidence.
Are there any tips on how I should study for the next 2 weeks? I tend to be failing in various types of questions so I don't even know where to start drilling from, or how I should drill (and would drilling help in the 2-week timeframe?) If I fail the Nov exam, I am planning to take the January exam, but I honestly don't know if I could increase my score by then as well... I just feel so stupid.
Hello everyone! My name is Gody. I’m from DC, and I plan on taking the LSAT in February. If anyone is interested in studying together, please let me know.
I am wondering if anyone knows how Columbia views ED applicants, more specifically how it may impact one's chance of giving in I will applying with my 170, and a 3.93 GPA. Columbia's medians are 173 and 3.92.
Also, I am wondering if I do choose to ED-- whether I should write my essays differently/ explain why I chose to ED Columbia specifically
hey yall. so i think i waited too long to register for the remote test. the email says registration doesn't close until sunday, in one week, but there are no available times for any testing day.
anyone have experience with this? i called prometric and they said they'd be releasing more times tomorrow but i couldn't get any more information, just a suggestion to keep checking. which will work great as i'm at work for 10+ hours tomorrow.
i got a feeling i was just getting the brush off from prometric. so i'm wondering, has anyone been in my position? do they indeed release more available times or was that just to get me off the phone? how often should i be checking the scheduler? any advice in general?
important edit 10/27 10:13am
this morning I set up a thirty minute timer to check for more availabilities and sure enough after a couple tries i snagged my ideal time and date for a remote test.
so yes to answer my own question: keep trying!
I was wondering if anyone has any tips on how to approach the test. I am horrible at test taking and get really nervous. I want to take my LSAT in 2026 before the summer and want to score above a 160 and I scored a 155 on a practice. But with the dates approaching I hit a slump and have been missing questions I would normally get correct.
I think its the nerves of taking the exam and getting it out the way but I was wondering if people had advice on how to deal with this and or test taking advice in general.
I would appreciate any help
A small thing, but I came here from another program and had already taken some exams. In the study plan feature, it gives me a prep test that I already have taken, and i have to go through the whole thing submitting each section just so that I can get to another prep test. It would be a lot easier if, once I realize its an exam I have already taken, i could go to that exam and mark it as completed already, so that 7sage isn't trying to force me to take it again.
Took October LSAT for the first time and scored seven points below my usual score. I didn't have accommodations for the October test but I do for November. My confidence has taken a nose dive and I'm really unsure about how well I'll do on the November test.
My goal was to have apps done by end of November. Would January be considered too late for priority admission? Is there anything else I can do?? I've always been bad at standardized tests and got an ADHD diagnosis as an adult. I do work full-time which has historically gotten in the way of my studying. Feeling hopeless :/
Hi guys. I used 7sage for five months (no other learning programs). I started with a 164 baseline score and I am so so so excited to be able to share that I got a 180. I cried when I saw. I never expected this. Thank you so much 7sage could not have done it without you guys. Hope everyone else's October tests went well. It has been a stressful ride for me. Not gonna lie this is just a celebration post for me since no one in my life understands the significance of this! I will answer questions if anyone wants to know anything about my study process.
Hey guys, I need feedback on the following. I took the June LSAT and scored a 157, I studied since then and was scoring in the 170s in my practice tests. An hour before taking the October test I found out about the whole hacking situation and how that test would be much harder. As a consequence (I'm diabetic), my sugar was low throughout the entire test affecting my concentration. Although that could've affected my score I am shocked on how low I scored. What do you guys think I should do?
I have a hard time prephrasing. In some live classes we do pre phrases before going into the AC's. But I was thinking that it would be good to have a class that focuses a bit more on prephrasing and how to actually prephrase correctly.
Hello - I'd be curious to see what the accuracy is for tags based on difficulty. For example my current accuracy for CondR is 75% overall, but I'd like to see what percentage accuracy I have for each levels 1-5.
Hey everyone!
This is the timeline of my LSAT journey:
May 2024-began studying (poorly, didn't take it very seriously)
Aug 2024-official score 142
*Haven't touched the LSAT since*
Sept 2025-started studying again
Oct 2025-first PT 156
Ok so realistically, what are my chances of scoring a 165 in the Jan 2026 LSAT? I'm still struggling with some basic stuff like making sufficient/necessary mistakes, spending way too much time on questions, overthinking, etc. I'm not confident whatsoever and the 14 pt increase is the only thing keeping me going. I just want to know what my chances are, any advice is appreciated.
Dear crew:
I would like to start out that I enjoy working on all types of RC passages and prefer to work on the hardest. Science and law passages are my most favorite. But there is ONE passage type that is an absolute disaster for me in terms of the # of missed questions, and applying the study advice is making it worse. -The jargon rich medical passages.
I am supposed to pay attention to the structure of the passage, do my lo-res summaries and not memorize the medical lingo. Yea. That's not working for me. If I do attempt to memorize the medical terms I do bad, if I don't I might as well not even bother.
At this point I fear I will have to just hope one of this monsters does not appear on the test and I hate to leave anything to hope.
Does anyone have any advice? Anything I could try?
Please help me slay the beast! 🙏🏼
Thank you.
How often do analytics update? I did around 40 questions in the past 24 hours but no change in my analytics -- this includes no changes in the percentage and the questions taken. But when I check my drill history, the questions are there. Do analytics update at a specific time daily? Can you change it so that it update in real time?
I also noticed that the ones not included tend to be my 1-3 question drills. 10+ questions at a time update normally.
Hi I did not do good. I got a 147. I am retaking in January of 2026. I want to improve my score within 2 months. I studied from June until October.
Hi! Today has been a bit of a gut punch. I've been full-time studying since May, PT’d a 169, 170, 176 and 171 leading into October, but got a 167 on the October exam. My GPA is a 3.93 and my dream school is Georgetown. I ideally would like to be competitive for the T-14s even though I’m open to T-30 schools. I know law school applications are at a high and applying at the end of November vs end of October can be detrimental.
Do I drop everything, hunker down, and take the November exam (I scheduled it for backup) or take my chances with what I have now to be able to apply earlier?
I appreciate any advice! ❤️
Hi everyone,
I'm currently due to be taking the November LSAT here soon but I am at least 5 points off of where I want to be at the low/mid 160s with a 3.7 GPA. Will I be screwing myself over by taking the January LSAT and looking to apply this cycle? I'm not looking for T30 or even T80. Just want some opinions if the score boost will be worth the later applications.
Thanks
Hey
I got a 152 on my Oct LSAT unfortunately and I’m looking for advice. Do I try again in January for a score boost or do I apply next cycle. I’m applying in Canada so most apps are due on the 1st of Nov. my apps are done and my undergrad I’m currently in is Engineering. Is it worth doing a masters/ work experience then revisiting law school after or try to push myself for the January one
I’m looking for I guess things to do differently if I am writing in Janurary. Is it worth it to try especially when it will be a blind score being attached to my applications. I was scoring consistently 160 on Pts leading up to it so I don’t know what happened tbh.
I’m just upset with myself so any help would be extremely appreciated, I also don’t know if I should cancel my score or not or leave it.
I just took a prep test and majority of the questions I got wrong are assumption questions. These are so hard to understand and I need help.
How often do the priorities under analytics update? And is it based on full PTs, sections or drills? Or a combination?
My accommodation request was denied and now LSAC says my account is on hold for registration.. I am stressed as I only have two days I can write the exam and hope to take it online (this is for the November 2025 testing)
I've emailed accommodations and have had no response.... help!
Essayist: The historical figures that we find most engaging are very rarely those who are morally most virtuous. What most commonly distinguishes them is their bravery and creativity. Thus, moral virtue is not among the characteristics that we admire most, since the people whose lives we would most like to live are those with characteristics we admire most.
Which one of the following is an assumption required by the essayist's argument?
A) The historical figures that we find most engaging are those lives we would most like to live.
B) Bravery and creativity are characteristics that makes it more difficult to be morally virtuous.
C) Historical figures are very rarely morally virtuous.
D) People develops their conception of what makes an individual admirable based on what they know about historical figures
E) Moral virtue is the characteristics of historical figures that we find least engaging.
Why is the correct answer A and not B?
I am just really nervous for the November LSAT. I have been studying a lot but I can never shake the nervous feeling.
I have been studying for the LSAT for a while and am seeking to study with a small group of people that I can view as accountability partners. I want to be able to walk through each question to explain why each right answer is right and why the wrong answer is wrong. I feel as if I have hit a plateau, and I want to take the necessary steps to break through to my goal score.
Currently, I am testing in the mid to low 160's and have an end goal of reaching the high 160's or lower 170's. I understand the fundamental principles and have been working to get my accuracy as high as possible, as that is the only way to score in the higher range.
I am open to a virtual or in-person group; I am based in Austin for college and will be in Houston once I graduate.
Is anyone located in Montréal and interested in forming a study group?
