Hello everyone! I’m new to 7Sage, and I’d love to know which instructors you would recommend or enjoy.

hii im currently looking for a study buddy or study group to motivate each other and help learn new ways to approach problems! im in the pacific time zone, don't have discord and taking the january lsat. looking forward to connecting w you!

Hi everyone! I'm looking for a study buddy who ideally is available between 7:30-9:30pm CST. I work a 9-5/6 and it's been pretty challenging to stay motivated and study after work so I would love to connect with people in similar situations.

Feeling discouraged after October test results were lower than scores on PTs. Advice for how to start studying again and improve for January or February test? Is it possible to improve score by 10 points in that timeframe?

I'm curious if anyone has any advice for mid career professionals considering applying to law school.

particularly does anyone have a sense of how admissions offices consider those who haven't been in school for awhile? how they might view work experience compared with past academics?

I'm trying to get an idea how much my mediocre undergrad GPA of 3.0 would be weighed vs my 15 or so years of professional work experience.

any insights are welcome and appreciated

During my undergrad I spent time working and earning college credit in various labs (neuroscience, psychology, and criminology). These labs offered me a lot of experience. I am very proud of the work that I completed and grateful for the opportunities. I want to highlight this experience somewhere in my application because I believe it was a big part of my undergrad career and it contributed to my personal development. The work has not yet been formally published. I think it would fit in my resume, but I am unsure where it would most make sense. Experience seems tricky because it was not a paid position but it also does not seem to fit well into Education. Any advice is appreciated!

Greetings, 7Sagers!

I am scoring 145-150 right now. I would love to study 1:1 and keep each other accountable.

I have discord and I can also meet on other platforms like zoom.

Hey everyone,

Selfishly interested in seeing if anyone who scored below the median on their first test has any inspiring stories to share 😅

My October score was 149 — way below what I was hoping for —and feeling especially discouraged since the November LSAT felt equally, if not more, challenging. Taking it again in January.

Anyone else in a similar spot?

Is working as a paralegal before law school guaranteed to provide more satisfaction with the law school experience than someone who just goes in without having worked in a law firm or any type of legal work? can someone break down any misconceptions about this or speak on if working first in the field is smarter than someone who does not?

Hello,

I get 6-7 questions wrong on each section. In the LR section, it is pretty much one of each type. I know my weakness mostly is the NA questions, but I still get 1-2 of them wrong, how do I get better? I have been consistently drilling but no results.

I took the LSAT on November 9th, and literally had a mental breakdown halfway through the RC section. I felt prepared going into the exam, but it was way harder than I thought it would be. Did anyone else have this experience? I'm so scared to get my score back

I am currently a sophomore and plan to take a gap semester to better prepare for LSAT and internships. Will this gap year influence my law school admissions. Should I justify and explain reasons of this gap semester when I apply? I am confused and genuinely appreciate some answers!

Anyone know of a way that you can print the drills for practice when you are not able to access a computer, e.g. in the car or on a plane? I know I could print some older version of the LSAT, but I'm trying to see what options I have. Should I just get a physical prep book?

Hello,

As the title suggests, I'm giving away my LSAT books. I have a copy of LR and RC from PowerScore for the year 2022.

They have been lightly highlighted in the first chapter of each - that is all.

I'm willing to pay for shipping. All I ask is that you're willing to take both books.

Please send me a message if you're interested.

I have heard mixed responses and was wondering if anyone knew if law schools can see you have extra time. If they can, does this affect how they evaluate your LSAT score?

I find that right now I'm really trying to strengthen my weak areas through the classes and trying questions in the drills. But for certain areas like AP, theres only 60 or so questions that are in the drills, and I feel like I will exhaust them really quickly. I'm having trouble finding any alternatives :(

hi! I am a teach for america teacher who taught in the nyc doe for 3 years, & resigned in june (at the end of the school year). when the summer break started (july), I was accepted to an education policy & advocacy fellowship in nyc that was 2 months long, which ended sept 8th ish

I am applying right now, & currently unemployed - main reason being: I got married early october & was away the majority of the month. I took sept & nov lsats & studying during my downtime all summer & when I wasnt working in sept/when I got back end of oct before nov lsat. other reason being the market in nyc is crazy & I do not think ill be able to get a job that is law school-esk (legal secretary, paralegal, etc) to just work for 6 months before going to school. I will probably continue my job as a volleyball coach & supplement with another retail job to pay the bills until school.

now my question: since I am applying by the end of the month, are schools going to be wondering about my current employment status? do I need to submit an addendum for this? I feel like its a moo point but also idk?

Hello, I am doing exactly as the title says and am looking to make an LSAT study group to meet regularly through zoom. We can discuss strategy, schedule practice test times, and help each other out in our studying journeys. Studying alone can get tiring and defeating sometimes, I hope to make a space for individual growth and community support. Availability will be discussed in our first meeting on the 15th at 2 p.m.. Please message me for the link!

Hello!

I have recently started studying for LSAT. I do have a concern which I thought I might be able to get some help here. I drill different question types now that I am moving forward with learning how to approach each of them specifically, but I am worry that those grouped practice questions are drawn from the actual tests that I will be taking every week to kind of measure and track my progress. If I see familiar questions on those full length tests then my score won't be a great reflection of my progress. Can someone help with that issue? What everyone do to keep the majority of them locked for the full length practice? That would be great if I get some help with your experiences... Thanks!

Is there any study discords, I am applying for the fall 26 cycle and im starting now, I need people to study with! My name is noahwayne on discord

I have been with 7 sage since July, 2023. Today was my last test no matter how I did it. That was my second test. At this point I am leaving you guys, and I just wanted to say you thank you! That was a long brutal journey and I grateful for your source!

Goal is 170+ for the August 2025 test, only took 1 diagnostic and got a 151. Already studied for about a month and haven't taken another practice test since. Want to attend NYU and currently have a perfect 4.0 GPA. Looking for someone to speak to about the LSAT and our progression, as well help each other along the way. I'm a male 20 yo looking for another male to be this person.

Until a few days ago, I was able to see all my individual drill answers in the analytics tab and was using that information to strengthen my weak concepts. Yesterday I tried to do the same, but noticed that they are all gone from the analytics page. I know that you can also see previous drills in the actual drills tab, but then you have to go by each drill which is really inconvenient. What can I do here?
