Can anyone from 7Sage comment on when the reorganized PTs. which were just released on LawHub, will be brought to 7Sage?
LawHub added new prep tests on their platform to mirror the new format starting August 2024. They labeled them Preptests 101 to 158. Does anyone know if the content on these tests is new or are they just reusing old test materials (from PT 1 to 94) and updating the format? Thanks
I'm currently stuck between taking the June or April (or both) LSAT since I want to try and take them before the logic games goes away in August. In the beginning of February I took my first PT after finishing the core curriculum and scored a 147 and my BR score was a 154 (my cold diagnostic was a 139). I want to take the LSAT with the logic games because it's supposed to be the most learnable section. Since my last PT I have been drilling LG 6 times a week for 5-6 hours a day using the foolproof method for games 1-35 (also I am currently a student in my last semester of undergrad and I do not work so I am able to put in a good amount of hours towards studying for the LSAT). I would love to take the April and June LSAT so I can have 2 go's at it but I'm worried that the April LSAT might be too soon since I still have to drill for LR and RC as I am not prepared at all in those sections. My RC is a -15 and LR -13. Also, the fact that I have to PT before the exam date worries me since I would need time to take PT's as well and I'm assuming I'd need at least few weeks for that. I'm planning to apply for the 2025 cycle and want to apply anywhere from September - December. Does anyone have any advice on what I should do? Should I even be considering the LSAT with LG or should I just be focusing on the other sections and plan to take it later without the LG? My goal score is 170, I know its high and probably unrealistic but I am willing to put in the work to get there. Any advice would be appreciated.
Thank you
Hi!
My friend who went to Yonsei UIC and I are starting an online LSAT study group. He has an official score of 176 and my score fluctuates from 166-172. I am not sure if this means anything but I have a degree from Johns Hopkins.
We meet at 7 pm-9 pm Korean Standard Time on Wednesday.
I have a Zoom Pro, so we can meet without interruption.
If you are interested, please send me a DM and I will invite you to the KakaoTalk group chat!
Thanks! (:
I drill each LR question type starting from "easiest". I don't move onto the next level difficulty until I get a perfect score on the drill. Once I get perfect scores on all drills of a given question type from "easiest" to "hardest" it would be really helpful if I could go back and retake all the ones I got wrong to make sure the concepts have been correctly solidified and I've made accurate progress. Would be great to add a feature to the drill filter where you can select "taken" and "got wrong". Thanks for considering! #feedback #request

I will be driving about 8 hours to visit family in the next few days and wanted to take advantage of that time by using it as best I could to supplement my LSAT studies. What are some good sources for audio learning regarding the LSAT, strategies/prep, test taking skills... ect. I am also open to application and law school insights.
Thanks!
Greetings, 7Sagers!
Announcing 7Sage's new weekly advice column, "Dear AO"! It's a "Dear Abby"-style column where you can ask any question to former law school admissions officers. Each week, we'll publish our answers to a couple of our favorite questions.
We invite you to submit questions about anything related to law school admissions, from personal statements to LOCIs to scholarship reconsideration. While we won't be able to answer every question on the blog (https://classic.7sage.com/blog/), we will do our best to address a strong cross-section of the inquiries we receive.
Submit questions here: https://forms.gle/3kUJCAAY45fVxtjn8.
Stay tuned for our first responses starting Wednesday, February 28!
Warmly,
Taj McCoy and Sam Riley
I have a hard time when it comes down to picking out which piece of the argument is the subset or superset. When I drill I sometimes confuse the necessary for sufficient and vice versa. is there any advice anyone can give me not to do this?
I just got granted testing accommodations/ LSAC provided me with a letter— I am wondering if there is another step I am suppose to take (I'll be taking it in person in April)? Like do I just show up to the center with the letter, and they'll accommodate accordingly, or do I need to contact them ahead of time? I want to make sure that I have done everything for them to honor it/not sure what the next step is
Hey guys! I have seen conflicting info about this and just wanted to double check--if you have paper and pencil accommodations you have to take the test in person, right? It used to be the case that they would ship you the test and you would take it virtually, but now taking it at a testing center is required? Thanks!
Hoping to form a study group of about 3ish people who are committed to sticking to a study schedule with the intent of focusing on LR/RC mastery. Please send me a DM/MESSAGE to let me if you would like to join :)
I've been trying to find the substitution equivalence lessons here on 7sage after hearing JY mention it in a new videos, as well as people asking for the lessons in the comments. All the links in response to those comments requesting the video lessons lead me to empty pages without any videos or written explanations. Would someone be able to help me find those lessons? Thank you!
Does anyone want to create a study group for the June LSAT on Discord for people who want to get 170 or 175+? Would love something consistent for motivation and questions etc.
Will prioritize people who are willing to be active in the study group. I am currently working through the 7sage core curriculum and I am also using the loophole and readingcomp hero.
Hello,
I was wondering if everything has been fully added to CV2. I've read some previous comments that CV2 was still in works, and wanted to know if the finalized version is ready to use.
Thanks
Hey guys!
Since they are getting rid of LG come August 2024, they are completely revamping the logic reasoning questions. They will be much tougher, and some of the questions will have hints of LG in them too. I just took the February 2024 lsat, and much of the Logic reasoning games were way tougher than anything I have ever experienced, in terms of LR. January 2024, and my february 2024 test takers seem to concur with this.
All of that being said, how should we go about studying for these revamped Logic reasoning questions? Does the 7sage V2 already have us covered? Does the V2 already have study materials for this evolved version of LR??
Hi all,
I have ADHD and my medication recently stopped working altogether for me (apparently its a thing that sometimes happens). I haven't been able to study in WEEKS because of my ADHD brain and I just pushed the April test to June to give myself more time, given this disruption. I need studying motivation. Please, if you have any advice, kind words, or a compelling story to tell that might inspire some motivation in me, share it if you feel comfortable. This is a rough time for me and I am just looking for some support.
Looking for a study group mainly to offer support and accountability, for the post-logic games test (Aug 24 and later). I’m a 26-year-old woman in South Philly, working full time 9-5. I would love to form a group with other people working full-time, trying to keep on track with our goals, supportive and not competitive. Esp people who are intimidated by the admissions process, ADHD brains, or working against perfectionism. Let’s treat this test like a test, not an indication of our self-worth! Comment if you’re interested!
Hello, so I started studying late December and I have been following the curriculum but I haven't been taking any practice tests. Should I be doing practice test while following the curriculum or do I wait until I finish the entire curriculum? How is everyone else studying? and How many hours a day or week are u studying?
Please help!
7 Sage #Admin, please provide some sort of guidance in the Learn dropdown that lets new users understand that they have an option between using V1 or V2 CC, along with V1 or V2 Study Schedule. Personally, I got over being annoyed that I started on V1 and after a month realized there's V2, which is more feasible for my schedule. After completing some of the updated lessons, I realized there's a whole different Study Schedule for V2 from a comment. This is rather frustrating and giving me a bad user experience.
I read the question"Do you have any relatives who have attended X Law School?" as asking if I had any relatives who attended X school as a whole. My dad got his MBA at this school, so I said yes and listed his name. I now realized that they were specifically asking for the law school. Should I send an email correcting this? If so, how should I send it/what should I say?

I am planning to take the LSAT after August, so I would like to start practicing with Prep Tests that do not include logic games. I read somewhere that once you click on a prep test, there should be a drop-down menu to the right of the prep test number that allows you to select the version of the test you want to take. However, I'm encountering an issue as there is no drop-down menu when I click on a prep test. If anyone has faced a similar problem and has found a solution, your insight would be much appreciated.
Hi there,
I know it is important to simulate real test day conditions, which means making sure I have the stamina to do 4 sections to simulate the experimental section. However, 7sage's August 2024 version only has the 3 actual sections. Is there a way 7sage recommends practicing the August format but including 4 sections? Should I just immediately take an extra RC or LR section from another pretest right after I finish the 3 section PT?
Also, is it recommended to do this for EVERY PT, or should I just throw in a 4 section every once in awhile?
Hey Everyone! I've only been studying for a few weeks and decided to apply what I learned from 7Sage about quantifiers to all/most/some practice problems in the LSAT Trainer. I'm stumped on one question and would very much appreciate it if someone would be able to map it out for me logically.
The passage is: "Most of the dishes at Oldie’s Diner are unhealthy, and most are offered on special during lunchtime. The dishes on special come with the customer’s choice of free fries or a free soda. All of the dishes offered on special are written up on the restaurant’s chalkboard."
The question is whether "Most of the dishes on the chalkboard are on special" can be true.
No matter how I go about the question using formal logic, I only ever arrive at some dishes written on the chalkboard are on special (Written-Chalkboard (--- s ---) On Special). Thanks in advance studious future attorneys!
I need advice. I have only been studying for 2 months now but I am already starting to get worried. I have taken 2 PT's & have not finished LR either time, scoring with -15 on both. While I am not too far into CCV2 (still in foundations), I have not been challenged by something this much before, which I guess is threatening to me. I am unsure if it is the wordiness & my want to just have my eyes glaze over while reading the stimuli or if I truly am just not getting it.
I am currently a high school science teacher & my study schedule isn't what I would want it to be due to everything I have going on. My mental stamina is also low. HELP )':
