Hi everyone! I'm looking for a study buddy for the January LSAT who wants to do some intensive prepping. I'm aiming for at least one practice test per day, but I realize that this may be impractical for some people, so I'm happy to review drills or other material together on a daily / bi-daily basis as well. I would definitely want to discuss for about 1 hour at least every other day / once every three days at the least.

I already have a 170 on an official LSAT and have an average of 173 on the site, with a high of 177. I'm down to study with anyone, but primarily looking for someone also aiming to break into the 170+ range. I struggle most with the reading comprehension section and feel that I'm strongest at formal logic. I usually hit around -0 to -2 for LR sections and -2 to -4 for RC sections. I'm also an SAT tutor in real life, so I feel pretty comfortable analyzing question formulas and things like that, but I feel like I also get thrown off by questions that "break the mold." Feel free to reach out if you think our skills could complement each other's! :)

I'm in my late 20s and have taken the LSAT 4 times (155, 160, 157, 168) and am scheduled to retake in January.

Currently have the next 2 weeks off for vacation so I'll be doing a PrepTest every other day, peppering in some hard drills every now and then, hopefully for a 172 next month.

Would love to find someone studying rigorously and seriously right now to chat with over texts or Discord or Insta or Snap or something like that to share progress and just commiserate over this whole experience. Sharing scores with each other and seeing improvement over time would be awesome. Also happy to discuss application stuff.

Hit me up!

Hey all, I am planning to take the LSAT in June 2025 and am looking for a local group to study with in the New York City/Metro area. The group will be hybrid, with at least one Zoom study session and an in-person study session (hopefully) weekly or biweekly!

I am either going to make a Discord, Instagram,or iMessage group so please let me know if you are interested!

I plateaued in the low 160s and it has stared to become a mental frustration for me. Just when I feel like something clicks and I take a PT the same scores keep staring at me...

I have sat for the test twice now and have scored in my band, but below my usual, and below my band. I really want to try to apply for this cycle but I am started to get fed up...

Any suggests for how to look at all this a new way? RC is my weak spot but LR has not been doing too great lately (big surprise there I take it that most hate the section with a burning passion...)

Hi everyone, I could use some help figuring out how to best manage my resources!

So, I've gone through the 7Sage Fundamentals and Logic Reasoning sections. Currently, I'm going through the 7Sage reading section. On the side, I'm doing the PowerScore Logic Reasoning Bible so I don't forget any of the fundamentals from 7Sage. I've taken a diagnostic already a few months ago but haven't taken another one yet.

Can anyone help me figure out what are my next steps/how to maximize the practice tests? I want to be able to drill but not use any from tests that I'll ultimately use later for PTing. If it helps you help me, I'm looking to take the test sometime in late spring/summer next year.

Thanks in advance!!

Hey everyone,

I started the LSAT PTing in the high 150s before I found 7Sage. 7Sage has been instrumental in my journey to achieving higher scores; by the time I sat for the September LSat I was PTing in the low-mid 170s (4 months-ish of studying). I notice a lot of people here are sharing their study habits so that others may attempt to emulate them, and while I’m sure there’s some value to that, I’m here to tell you that I climbed with absolutely no method to my madness:

I studied when I felt like it (often, but irregular), I would wake up and go to sleep when I was tired (sometimes asleep by 4am and up by 2pm), and I would take random days off. I had the 7Sage app, which I would take with me to events that I didn’t think I’d enjoy (and just do exercises at the event). The only thing I would regiment is my practice tests, which I tried to make as “test day” as possible (I took 8 PTs overall).

I scored a 171 on the one and only official LSAT I’ve taken. I was going to take it again the following month, but serious family issues made it an unattractive prospect, and I was happy with a 171.

I say all this to highlight that the test, and studying for it, is a very personal affair; you need to find what works for you. All these people can offer you their words of wisdom or tips and tricks, but at the end of the day all you need to do is figure out how to understand the question being asked.

However, if I was to make one recommendation to someone seeking improvement, or highlight one aspect of my own studying which dramatically improved my results, it would be thus: blind review. Blind review, blind review, blind review. I can’t overstate how dramatically that changed my performance. Be mercilessly honest with yourself, and push yourself to fully understand questions and the ‘answers’ the test writers are providing you BEFORE you reveal the correct answer.

As a final note, be kind to yourself. You reading this here are in a select minority of test-takers who is probably taking their LSAT prep very seriously. I met countless students (at UC Berkeley no less) who were just “going to take the test and see how it goes.” You are already ahead of them, and if you take your studying seriously, you’ll finish miles ahead of a significant portion of test takes.

Best of luck 7Sage-ers!

Hi! I am taking the April LSAT and looking for a study buddy to meet with virtually outside my 9-5 pm (EST). I struggle with motivation after working all day but thrive off accountability with others. Zoom call is prob going to be best! Thinking meeting 1-2 times a week. I've been studying for months on and off but now I'm going to get consistent! My goal is high 160's! I'm in OKC

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a study buddy who's aiming for a goal score of 170+. I'm a full-time student but I'm pretty flexible with time so I'm sure we could figure out a time that would work for the both of us! I'm willing to work on zoom, and I know that teaching other's is the best way to remember things so I would love to help teach someone and I would love if someone could teach me too!

A trend I'm noticing on my recent practice tests (in the last 2 months) is that most of the LR questions I miss have the Causal Reasoning tag. I've been working my butt off to try and improve on this type but for the life of me I can't seem to get any better. I've reread the Loophole's chapter on CausR, the PS Bibles, gone through the 7sage lessons, and have been drilling 5* causal reasoning questions multiple times a day with thorough reviews of the answers and yet I keep missing these questions when it comes to a practice test.

Has anyone been in a similar situation or have any advice to offer?

This is causing me a headache.

Hey, is anyone else's 7sage being really slow and glitchy? Im trying to scroll through my PT and its just very slow in processing the scrolling and opening. I thought it was a wifi problem but i troubleshooted everything and its the same problem across all my devices. Any idea what to do?

Hey, interested in taking the LSAT this summer and want to get a high score. Looking for a study group to study with and discuss questions with. We could help hold each other accountable for studying. Could be virtual or in person (live or work in the NYC area). I work a 9-5 job, so preferably someone who also works or is ok with studying in the evening. Let me know if you’re interested!

Hello, I wanted any suggestions about stuff to read outside of LSAT material that is similar to RC so I can get my brain used to that sort of reading. Any suggestions of books, news outlets, etc? The economist is one I hear but now its a steep price to pay so am looking for something cheap! Thanks

Hi everybody.

Im a junior in undergrad planning to take the lsat in June. I wanted to see if there were any study groups here or if anybody was interested in making one, either virtual or in person?

I’m aiming for a score 170+ and my last pt was a 160 so I’m looking for other people in the 155-165 range!

I am a bit concerned that while going through the curriculum and associated drill sets I am seeing so many real LSAT PT questions. Won't this skew the accuracy of my PT experiences and scores when I take them if I have seen too many questions from the tests beforehand?

I am going through the entire curriculum between taking my diagnostic PT and my next PT and worry that when I start taking PTs again I will be familiar with too many questions for accurate test simulation. Is this addressed at all in the curriculum or methodology of 7Sage?

I'm having a problem with viewing all of the preptest that I've been taking on the 7Sage website. I was wondering if someone can help me with this problem?

Hey team! I'm looking for study partners who work a 9-5 job in Florida or in the Eastern Time Zone (EST). My goal is to achieve a score of 165 and above, and I would love to organize a motivated group of positive individuals to make this test prep enjoyable and help us stay on track, even on our most tiring days before and after work. This isn't easy, but there is strength in numbers!
