Listing institutions on CAS

My high school had a program with the community college that we could take classes there for high school class credit. Do I list that institution or not? The classes appeared on my high school transcript, not a college one. However, I was technically enrolled as a student, though I'm actually not sure if I was considered a student of the college or not. I heard that they're strict about this kind of stuff when it comes to background checks so I wanted to ask.

edit - our school had AP classes, it was separate from that. The purpose of the program was for kids who finished the science curriculum at my school including AP to take even more advanced classes because we were required to take science every year and we were all nerds who tested out of a bunch of stuff. It appeared on my high school transcript as essentially a regular high school class, but I was in the college's system and had a guest email and log in so it feels like a grey area

I need help

I am taking the exam in September. I have been studying non-stop for the last three months. Consistently been getting between 169-173 for the last two months.

Everything was going well, until I took a practice exam last Saturday and did so poorly it devastated me. I thought it was a one-off, but I took another today and same exact result. I am spiraling psychologically––this exam, for me, is a huge psychological challenge; I don't understand what about it is so personal but I am spiraling.

Psychologically, I feel I have hit a wall. Three weeks out, I'm sure mentally I am going to keep making mistakes, and I'm looking at the questions I got wrong and I genuinely do not understand what is happening––the answers I chose seem, objectively, correct. My wrong answer journal is blank because the questions seem like they are the problem.

I don't know what to do, or how to proceed. This is not just a one-off, this is psychologically leading me into study free fall. I will not get a chance to study or take the LSAT again like now. If I don't do well now, knowing myself and my work and study schedule, I have no chance again. I don't know what to do and need assistance.

Hi! I need to find a study group to keep each other accountable and just motivate each other but also review together. I am currently scoring in the low 160s and taking the October test. I am in the DC area, so if anyone else is close by message me!

My first diagnostic was a 165, and after months of studying I'm still averaging 168. I've gotten a few PTs between 170-174, but I'm really consistently getting 168s. I feel so stuck! Is this just how it is when you're trying to get 170+? Do I just need to drill more of the question types I'm stuck on? More time on wrong answer journaling? What's been helping you the most?

I just took PT 148 Section 1 and I'm very confused with question 21. It reads:

No occupation should be subject to a licensing requirement unless incompetence in the performance of tasks normally carried out within that occupation poses a plausible threat to human health or safety.

'No' is a negated necessary indicator & 'unless' is a negated sufficient indicator. The curriculum says when encountering these it doesn't matter if you put the term as the necessary or sufficient condition because of the contrapositive. But, when you have both indicators that surely can't be the case as this question proves. If the curriculm covers how to handle conditional statement with both kinds of indicators I missed it.

So my question is, how do you handle these? Do you just need to use intuition to figure out which term goes in the sufficient/necessary spots? Do you prioritize one indicator over the other? Or do the indicators cancel each other out and you proceed as if they never existed?

The diagram for this questions is

If subject to licensing agreement (LR) → Incompetence poses threat (IPT)

(Contra) /IPT → /LR

"Timing" videos?

In the explaination video of PT153.S2.26 J.Y. references a "timing video". I also saw on another previous explaination (can't remember which one) it was a video of him going through a section on paper timed. Is there a way we can access these videos?

😖 Frustrated

Can I improve my score in one month?

I've been getting around a 156 on my practice LSAT's with my blind reviews in the 165-166 range. Is it possible for me to get over 160 for the October LSAT? I've been told my problem isn't the content, its timing and consistency. Is this truly what it is?

Blind Review Data

I think that I would benefit from timing data during blind review. Not a live counter, but a background counter to show how much time I am spending during blind review. This may seem like "just more data." However, I see this as helping to hone-in further on specific question types and their nuances. This could help answer "What about this question makes me spend this much time on it?"

Hi!

I am studying for the January 2026 test and was wondering if anyone wanted to start a study group. I work full-time but go to the library or study at home after work and on weekends.

I am down to do practice sections together or even just be an accountability buddy to study next to.

I am open to both virtual and in-person!

I am taking the September 2025 LSAT online using ProProcter. In the test instructions it says that scrap paper and pens are prohibited. How am I supposed to map out logic heavy questions? Is there a pencil tool on the program? What about a highlighter tool?

Priority tags broken?

It is all the sudden now showing that I have barely any tags above "Low priority". My expected accuracy for everything just tanked to like 25%... Last night it was fine! Haven't taken any tests since.

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in regularly going through 3-5 star CausR and CondR questions. I have bee stuck at ~170 for a while now because of them and was hoping that maybe just talking to someone might help raise both our scores.

I live in the Phx area, so I guess most interaction would be digital.

Thank you for your time and I hope you have a great day!

Hi! looking for some advice. in the past month and a half, i've scored 180, 180, 179, 173, 175, 171, 171. I feel like I've been studying just as hard and focusing on my weaknesses in the same way that brought me to those high initial scores. I'm not sure what I'm doing differently to account for the drop. I haven't been particularly stressed or overwhelmed, and nothing major has changed in my lifestyle. Maybe the PTs in the late 130s were just easier for me than the ones I'm taking in the 140s?

Has anyone experienced something similar, and do you have any advice? My test is in a month and I'd like to reach my full potential again.

💪 Motivated

Maybe Just Maybe

Peace Everyone,

I’m new to the 7Sage community and currently preparing for the January LSAT. I’m looking to form or join a dedicated, accountability-based study group with other motivated test takers.

The idea is to meet once a week to study together, discuss strategies, review tough questions, and keep each other on track. Whether you’re just getting started or already deep into your prep, let’s help each other stay focused and improve.

If you're interested, feel free to send me a private message or reply to this post. Let’s put in the work and get the score we deserve!

Hi I'm taking the LSAT today and I'm planning on retaking it again maybe in January or mid 2026. I'm looking for a study buddy for accountability and also just to study together on EST timing! Preferably other students in the NYC area, I'm a senior in uni! Feel free to reach out here or on Discord: @mparis
