Hi guys!

I am looking to form a study group in the Los Angeles area. I am a new UCLA grad so I'm pretty close to campus. I am currently taking a gap year in order to maximize my chances to get the highest score possible. If anyone is interested in a LA study group let me know!

We've upgraded the study plan! While you could always set your daily study hours, you can now customize how much you study each day of the week:

Head over to your study plan settings to pick the perfect schedule.

Hey, heres some background before I get into my question. I completed a 3 year Geomatics Engineering Diploma here in Canada which saw my GPA go from 1.56 to 2.38 over those 3 years. But now I'm doing my Survey Engineering Technology Bachlers here in the US and I've only done one semester so far but my GPA has improved significantly (3.71 GPA). If I keep this up over the summer term and next two semesters after which I'll graduate. Will the upwards GPA trend look good to US law schools? Also, I used a GPA calculator and even if I get an A in the rest of my courses till I graduate my cGPA will still be under 3.00. Most of the schools I'm planning on applying to schools that are ranked between 35 and 100 for your information.

I'm an incoming junior in college and want to take the lsat early, is this a good idea? I know the scores are good for up to three years so why not take it now and get the stress of senior year out of the way. I'm a very visual learner so the lsat is a real struggle for me--and I don't understand the point of a wrong journal!? I write what I got wrong, why the correct answer is correct and then what? I feel as though writing all that out won't help me in the long run no?

I haven't taken a diagnostic yet, and I'm wondering if I should but finding time to take a three hour test without any distractions (I get distracted very easily) is hard. I feel like I'm doing everything wrong. But is starting early good?

My gpa is a 2.8 right now, and I'm retaking some courses to boost it up. Is there anything else I should be doing? I feel very discouraged.

Hi guys! Just reaching out to see if anyone is interested in creating a study group or helping each other study!

See title.

7Sage breaks down and teaches types of content for the LSAT, and then lets you practice the concepts taught in the practice modules; however, I've been told you need at least 300+ hours of studying to do well on the LSAT (achieving a score in 160s+).

Does this 300+ hours exclude the work prior to the practice modules?

Is it more efficient to print out the drills from the lessons, do it on my own, and then go back to the lesson and learn about it, or should I just pause the lesson do it and then see if I got it right. I like printing them out because I feel more focused however, I also do not want to be wasting time if on the actual test we won't be printing papers out. Just want others opinions on this. Pls Help.

hi friends wondering if anyone has any tips or advice on closing the gap between your score and blind review? feels like when i have unlimited time, i'm able to find my way to the correct answer but hoping for advice to help me perform as well during the real thing!

thank you in advance ☺

We're trying to improve our notes and WAJ system. Do you actually review your wrong-answer journal, or is the main value in taking the notes? If you review, how often?

Please tell us how you're using your notes and wrong answer journals, whether on 7Sage or another app!

This was my first full length prep test since my diagnostic in May, and I was so surprised by these results! Granted, I did skip the experimental section from being pretty exhausted today, which probably helped with my energy and concentration on the subsequent scored sections. Hoping to work on building stamina with more PTs, but feeling great about the progress!

Much love to the core curriculum <3

Hi!

It would be so nice if we could create drills that include questions from a variety of different Statuses for the same drill.

For example:

Making a 20 Question Drill that includes a variety of "Fresh" questions as well as "Incorrect on Last Take".

or

Making a 20 Question Drill that includes "Incorrect on Last Take" as well as "Incorrect more than Once"

I feel this would really assist with my studying and drilling questions that I've gotten incorrect, while also being able to throw in some new ones in the mix. As sometimes the "pool" of questions for a single Status is relatively small, so it would be nice to be able to do longer drills that could incorporate multiple categories.

Anybody else feel this would help their studying?

Normally, I don’t study with music, but I have decided to try it. While on the train studying, I listen to music. I know to not listen to music while doing timed practice tests or timed sections. What about music while doing untimed drills? Music while doing timed drills? What about music when reading/reviewing foundationals?

Music seems to improve my focus by helping me somewhat better zone out . But I don’t want to depend on it/bad crutch habit that then affects me when I don’t have the music during PTs/sections.

Someone in the LSAT community did bring up a good point that music could be there as I build good logical thinking and by the time I rip away the music I would have these good logical habits so the lack of music wouldn’t affect me.

Thoughts on music while studying and when I should and shouldn’t listen?

Hi all,

My undergraduate degree was in astrophysics, so with the exception of coding, I am used to taking all my notes on paper. I know this is the best way for me to retain and visualize information. However, I am on the fence about switching from physical to digital notetaking for law school.

Does anyone have any experience, reflection, or advice about this transition? Pros and cons maybe? My understanding is that law school will require a lot of reading case studies etc which would obviously be easier to annotate digitally than print out. But what about general 1L notes?

Thank you for any feedback! Best of luck to all of you with studying <3

Looking to start a West Virginia study group! I am in Charleston.

I have a 2.8 GPAm very low but I definitely want to go to law school, I am looking into Touro and Hofstra but is it even worth trying with my low GPA score, even if I aim for 170 on the lsat? Or is there anything else I can do to offset my low GPA. Should I consider grad school?

Anyone based in Beijing Time wanna study together. Just started LSAT prep, aiming for 175+ and will be in China for the summer. This can be virtual or in-person, I'm based in ShenZhen!

My highest score is a 149 and I went down in a practice test to a 145. I didn't do all of the blind review for it and just kinda burnt out for today. I think my biggest issue is that I am in the middle of meditation fluctuations that affect my brain and I may be studying too much. I was studying for 5-6hrs a day, no break days other than holidays. I plan on taking the August test and the September test. Should I work on my study schedule? Change my August test to November instead? Or just give myself some days off? It seems like I am struggling with RC foundations, but I seem to grasp the LR foundations ok. I am trying to get at least to 160-165

I think it would be super helpful if we were able to filter the incorrect answers for drilling by oldest answered. It often happens with me that when I reattempt previously missed questions in drills, I get ones that I recently missed and therefore remember the answer so I cannot actually reattempt the question by working through the logic. I know some studiers only study for a few months before taking the LSAT and ending their time with 7Sage but for users who study for 6+ months I think this filter will be very useful because the chance of remember older questions from a year ago are slim. Thanks!

I've been studying for several months, and my scores have been consistent in the high 160s for the past month. However, in the past 2 weeks I have been scoring in the 150s and cannot seem to figure questions out. I am taking the LSAT in August but with this dip in scores, I am concerned I won't be able to be ready to go. Has this happened to anyone? Any tips to get out of this slump?

Do you think it's better to include questions you got correct, but spent too much time on, in blind review? I find it makes me second guess whether my answer was right. I end up trying to justify answer choices which I was sure were incorrect.

How do you use blind review? Any tips for making the most out of blind review?

Hi, would you all recommend doing the experimental sections in the PT or skip over for time efficiency? Is there a benefit to this I may not be seeing?

Hi y'all,

I'll be applying to law schools this Fall and I'm currently in preparation mode with my personal statement, essays, and resume. I'm currently using 7Sage's School Data portal as my main resources for finding what all I need to prepare to include in my applications. How much do law school change their applications year over year? I'm preparing early because I have a quite busy month of August with work, and want to be ready to submit applications come September.

Also, when will 7Sage switch their cycle from 2025-26 to 2026-27? Will what I have starred/saved remain?

Thanks everyone. Best of luck!

So i'm currently PTing in the mid 150s. Just a year ago my diagnostic was a 138. However now it's time to break into the 160s. Any tips on how I can pass the 150s?

We now have a new "Diagram?" tag. This identifies questions our tutors would consider diagramming. The "?" is to show that there's no one-size-fits-all answer to when and exactly what to diagram. So don't take the tag to mean that you have to or should diagram those questions; that's the wrong message. But we've found that many students wanted to isolate questions that are particularly heavy on conditional logic within the broader set of questions tagged Conditional Reasoning. This tag is a good way to get at those questions.

I know that when you first link your 7Sage and LawHub Advantage, it imports your PrepTests. Is there a way to input PrepTests taken on LawHub Advantage after that first time? I recently took a Preptest on LawHub and would prefer not to have to "retake" it just for the analytics--which wouldn't be accurate anyways, at least timing wise.

Any ideas?
