Hey all,
Do the drills that you can create from the questions here on 7Sage include questions from experimental sections on the tests? Or is it all scored questions only?
The LSAC applications ask for a list of "all educational institutions attended." I've taken a number of one-off classes at nearby colleges, some of which didn't count as college courses -- for instance, I participated in a six-week course about the publishing industry at Columbia (we didn't have grades and did little actual work) and did a six-month programming bridge course at NYU Tandon (lots of work, but the class was technically not accredited). Should I list "Columbia" and "NYU" as institutions attended? I don't want to imply that I got college credits from them.
Hello everyone, I'm trying to study sections based on the Powerscore Webinar recommendations. In the recommendations they refer to 'PT155 LRII' PT 155 has three LR sections, and the first one is expermintal. Does anyone know if they are referring to S2 or S4 of PT 155, given that S1 is expermintal and S3 is RC?
I am almost through the foundations section of the 7Sage curriculum. I do not understand lawgic and I am disappointed in myself. I decently understand it, however when we put it all together to draw valid conclusions, I get lost. Is this normal? Should I move on to the logical reasoning section or relearn everything in foundations?
Hi All,
Any drills for the foundations part of this course? I really want to have those cemented before I wade into deeper, more complicated waters.
Thank you!
I am struggling now more than I imagined and I would like to know how I can improve or be introduced into how to study.
Seeing incorrect marks and red marks just feels so negative. How do you not let this get to your head? How do you remain positive when it seems like you can't? I'm starting to feel like I should give up on going to law school.
Are both options available, or only one, and if so, which one? I'm studying on a laptop using just the touchpad. Seems like a mouse would be quicker, but I want to practice with as much similarity to the test center as possible. Please advise. Thanks!
If I do drill sets will I end up seeing some of these same exact questions on my practice exams, thus making my practice exams less accurate or realistic?
Hi. I am planning on taking the LSAT this June of 2025. I might retake the August 2025 LSAT exam if they offer it then. I am looking to start an LSAT study group in NYC. We can meet in person in Brooklyn or Manhattan or just do most of the work online by Zoom. I plan to take 1-2 tests each week and blind review them. I live in Brooklyn Heights. Contact me on here with your contact information. Thanks!
Last couple of days I've been having some technical difficulties where the time elapsed is randomly jumping several hours and when taking PTs my time runs out all the sudden.
Is anyone else having this issue?
I will be spending a large part of my day tomorrow on the road driving back to my college. What are some possible ways to study while driving (in the safest way possible)? I was thinking podcast but I don't know which podcast I should use.
I've been listening to the 7Sage podcast and really appreciated Henry's description of how he psyched himself up for PTs and tests. (Especially his description of looking himself in the mirror and calling himself a "logic predator.")
I've been loving Taylor Swift's "The Albatross" as a pump-up song. The chorus ("she is here to destroy you") is my "mantra," with the content of the verses neatly lining up with some logical fallacies/traps to avoid (in particular, the lines "a rose by any other name is a scandal" and "Wise men once said 'one bad seed kills the garden.'" But there are actually a bunch of phrases in there that are amusingly relevant to LSAT prep.)
This got me curious -- who else has a pump up song (or other media) that helps them get in the right mindset?
Last week I posted in here asking for advice on getting worse with every PT I did (158 diagnostic, 167s after finishing lessons, to 163s and then 158 on most recent PT). After the 158 I took 3 days completely off from the test - no lessons, drills, or PTs. Rested, spent time with friends, got good sleep, enjoyed my weekend. Came back and did a PT yesterday and scored a 168, which is my highest score yet.
I just wanted to share this as I saw several comments from others sharing similar experiences and I wanted to reiterate how important it is to rest. Taking a break let me come back fresh, focused, and less stressed after burning myself out. Especially for those taking the Jan test such as myself, it's really important to take breaks, rest, and not overdue it in this last week. It's also valuable to know that this experience is common and that these waves and plateaus can happen.
For context, I just started studying for the LSAT for the first time ever. Do you think following 7sage’s syllabus lessons in order is best, or if there is a specific lesson that I think should be a priority, does it matter if I skip to that section? Just don't want to feel lost and regret not following the syllabus lessons chronologically later on.
I was just wondering, what is a tip or trick that you used (or use) on the test that you found to be incredibly useful/helpful.
Hi all,
I've taken 14 PTs. I find I learn best through a combination of drilling and PTs. However, 7Sage uses PT content for drilling. I like this, but I'm concerned about compromising future PTs due to having answered some of their questions during my drilling sessions.
I've started to plan which PTs I will take in the future, and selecting drilling questions only for PTs not belonging to that group of tests. The plan is to keep "fresh" PTs 111-121. As a result of this, I have been drilling from PTs in the 140s and 150s.
However, I'm concerned about possible differences between the quality, rigor, or relevance of different PTs. This could mislead me in my evaluations of where I am at in my LSAT journey. Are some PTs more applicable to the modern LSAT than others? If anyone has any information about this, please let me know! Also, what is your approach to this problem? Have you encountered this? If there's a flaw in my approach, or an alternate method that you've found success with, also let me know!
Any advice is appreciated- thank you
For those who have taken an official test before, what do you find works for you in the final weeks leading up to it? Do you stick with your study schedule, ramp things up, or take a break? Any suggestions??
And good luck to all those who are taking the January test!
Hi All! I'm new to using 7sage but I'm having some technical difficulties. When I review my drills I can see the answer I selected, and not which one is correct. Same with my prep tests. I'm sure it's just a setting I don't have enabled. Thanks!
Anyone interested in starting a DMV study group?
Hey Im planning to take the LSAT in June and was hoping to find some others who would like to form a study group? If you aren’t in Tampa that’s fine too but would be cool to form a Tampa study group.
Helllooo, looking for people interested in taking the April and/or June 2025 LSAT in NYC and looking for fellow testers to help learn and hold themselves accountable to studying- I've been studying off and on for about a year and looking to lock in over the next couple of months- open to people at all levels and esp looking for slightly older students ? Anyone 25+?? HMU
Hey all,
Looking to take the June test - was looking to see if others were interested in a 4-10 person study group. Let me know and ill make a discord or something and respond.
If I struggle with the context/strategy switching from one section type to another, is there a way to practice that other than the full length tests? Like if I wanted to do a 27Q RC and then a 26Q LR, or even two RC passages and then immediately go into the first 15 LR?
Seems like only option would be to start and not finish a prep test, but then it would mess up your analytics.
I switched gears in my studying to focus on RC, while focusing on RC and completing the RC hero course, I took a step back from LR. Prior to my switch, I was getting -6 to -8 on LR, now as I've tried to tackle the entire test - I've found myself getting -8 to -10 on LR. I take the test in two weeks, is there anything I can do to help improve my LR to where I was before? I'm not even sure where I'm going wrong anymore. I keep a wrong answer journal to review where I go wrong, but it doesn't seem to be helping. I've read loophole, LR bible, did the whole 7sage curriculum, so I'm unsure of how to move forward, and I don't want to spend any more money on prep since my test is so soon. My most common wrong questions are NA, SA, and Flaw. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
