Hiii comrades! Wondering if anyone wants to collaborate on editing/proofing personal statements. I am currently in the process of drafting mine, and am thinking how helpful it would be to be able to share it with a few people and get feedback as I go. In my mind I am picturing a sort of book club, where maybe each week we rotate "partners". With your partner of the week, you would share a google doc version of your draft so far, and according to preference, either just make comments/edits on the doc, or even do like a FaceTime/zoom session where you could discuss as you read each others/brainstormed etc. If you're interested, lob a comment, and ill start figuring out a way to organize us with a google drive or something similar (:

Hello!
I wanted to ask about topics for my diversity statement to see if I could get some insight. I graduated with a BS in forensic biology and I thought it would be really interesting to write an essay about my education and how it adds a diverse perspective. Do you guys think this is appropriate? One of my mentors has suggested that I also talk about my diverse personal background as an Indian in the essay but I'm not sure if these two topics go together. Thanks!
Hi everyone! I am planning to take the April LSAT and will begin studying (hopefully) tomorrow. I wanted to see if anyone had any advice on how to set up my studying using 7Sage. I know that there is a curriculum but I noticed that when I put in my start date to my end date (test date) that it says I'm not studying enough hours a week.
When I took my first diagnostic (Preptest 66 on Khan Academy) I scored a a 137, with my scores as the following:
I do work full time, so if anyone has any advice on how to study while working a full time job that would also be appreciated! I am excited to get started... and I am open to any advice anyone may have. What's worked best for you, where you saw your most improvement, and how I can structure my time to maximize my return on investment.
Looking forward to hearing from you!
New subscriber here- Just took the PT 1 as a cold(ish) diagnostic after completing 7Sages Foundations section over the weekend and no prior study. I have yet to begin the core curriculum’s overview of the 3 individual sections.
Scored a 153 timed. RC-LG-LR. Completed RC but no time for a second round of review. Solved the first two LG’s, but struggled on the third. I was not able to get to the fourth LG and was pretty fatigued by the third section, wound up with quite a few answers blank in LR. Scores hovered around -10 in each section.
I decided not to blind review since I haven’t gone through the core curriculum yet and didn’t want to spend an inordinate amount of time without some foundational principles for how to tackle the games/LR, but overall feeling pretty good for a cold(ish) score!
Stuck between question A and B. Any tips?
Admin Note: Edited title. For LR questions, please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."
Hello. I would like to request that you transfer your lessons about Blind Review from v1 to v2. In the v2 curriculum, it appears to be assumed that everyone knows what Blind Review is and how it is practiced. Although we can just switch to v1, other individuals who are new to the LSAT and 7Sage might not think to look back at v1 to learn about Blind Review.
Thanks
Hello, I'm very new to studying for the LSAT and don't really know where to start. So, I'm hoping there are people around the CT/NY area (or anywhere for online) going through the samething or have somewhat experience with LSAT and can offer a helping hand on what to expect or just wanna come down and study together. I wanted to see if there is anyone intrested to meet and study weather online or in person to prepare for the LSAT. Everyone no matter what experience you have or don't have is welcomed just looking for a support group for people that are going through this because it's a journey and we all need someone along the way. As someone who has no one around them with this experience of trying to go to law school it would to have people that get the fustration and would be willing to help each other out. If your interested please commment or message me and leave your email! :)
Where are the rest of the Logic Game explanation videos? Im only seeing four for each preptest.
The last thing i ever expected is for a LSAT prep course to transcend the LSAT, but everything about 7sage's live classes, from curriculum to teachers, has been a testament to how freakin fulfilling high quality learning can be. While the LSAT score is the destination, I have thoroughly enjoyed the journey.
I took an older pt with two LR sections but I still want to check what the curve would be like if I calculate the results again with only a single LR taken into account. Anyone know how?
Hi,
Would it be a good idea to list an incoming internship on a law school resume?
The only reason why I didn't choose D is because I thought M won't consider the renaissance era disruptive...please #help
Just a thought, but would I be allowed to rip off tiny pieces of my scrap paper to create make shift tiles for logic games ?
I tried buying it says page not found. Has it been discontinued.

Hello,
I am looking for a service to review my Personal Statement primarily for grammar. I've looked online and have seen so many differing opinions as well as warnings of scams, can someone please provide me a legitimate recommendation?
Thanks!
Been studying since August, PT in low 150’s and best is a 157. Realistically, what kind of improvement can I expect for the January LSAT? Obviously no one can give an exact number, but I’d like to have an idea of what I could expect to be scoring in that timeframe. Any input is appreciated.
Self-studiers: when you are reviewing an answer and completely stuck, what resources do you turn to?
As the title says - for self-studiers, how do you go about finding a correct answer to a challenging question if you do not have a tutor?
For me, I try to use 7Sage’s explanation videos, but those can still leave me with questions or without clarity, or explanation videos are lacking.
🔢 I'm currently scoring: 160-165
📆 My planned test date: February 2024 or April 2024

Like I said above, this group is open to all, from beginners to long-time studiers. I just hope that this study group can help each and every person in it and that we can use this group not only to learn and improve our studying, but also where we can reliably hold each other accountable as we get closer to the test date(s).
I have no clue how C is correct. Can anyone chime in?
Admin Note: Edited title. For LR questions, please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."
Can someone explain to me why the right answer is the right answer and wher eyou found it in the passage?
Would anybody be able to put me in touch with someone who went to UCI Law? I am applying there and would like to ask them some questions about their experience.
Please, no discouraging comments. Honesty and insight though, much appreciated.
Great LOR's, first generation college and law student, 159 LSAT 71% score according to this cycle thus far, 3.66 GPA double major from University of Washington, trilingual, much involvement in leadership / intern opportunities during undergrad, just got placed on hold.
I understand what on hold means - that it is a status not a decision - and that there is ambiguity and patience involved no matter what.
But this really crushed my soul. Standardized tests aren't my greatest strength (not excuse, just context), but I really worked so hard and feel crushed. trying not to lose hope. I'm not one to give up but this was really the worst feeling.
Will take a tour and send a letter of continued interest, but when?
Is it worth taking the LSAT my last time in January to see if I can get above 159? I only have ten days to decide.
I respect and understand the competitive process but wow.
Any insight on UM law, placed on hold but then admitted stats, mental advice / application advise / LSAT guidance,, etc. I moved from the PNW to here for this school a few months ago, it's my dream. I don't want to relinquish that.
I renewd My yearly Lawhub subscription with the same account. However, I keep receiving the following notice:
"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.

Hi! I'm conflicted right now because I took my LSAT in November and did not get the score I wanted. I am thinking about taking the January and/or Feb LSAT (depending on my practice test scores) but I feel like that is too late in the cycle to apply for Fall 24. Any advice, should I still apply? I already took a gap year and I feel so behind. :(
