📆 My planned test date: April and/or June

📈 To study, I have been: Reading through the LSAT trainer supplemented with the 7S core curriculum, drilling, and PTs.

🔑 My goals for this group are: To hold each other accountable and share insights.

What did I do wrong ?

I am taking the August 2024 LSAT, though I may push back until December while I am on break from college. I am going to start studying now. How many hours per week do you guys think I should start with? I was thinking 5-10

Hey! I finished the Foundation module and now I am working through the logical reasoning module and wanted to know how often I should take practice tests? Also should I jump around from the logical reasoning to RC or LG?

I’ve been studying for a while (longer than 6 months) and right before the Jan test everything began to really click for me. I was scoring in the high 150s and so close to the 160s consistently. I even became so confident to where I could actually explain why all answers were right/wrong. Y’all I literally started from a 120…anyways I listened to my partner and stopped studying for a few days and I feel like I’ve lost it. I went from -6 on LR to -13, it’s embarrassing. I take feb test soon and I was hoping to break into 160s by then. Help!

Update: the chat lounge experiment has been concluded. Thank you all for participating!

Hey 7Sagers,

This week, we'll be hosting a global chat space. While the room is open, you can join here.

This event is intended to gauge community interest in a more permanent sitewide chat space. Pose a question, review some material together, or maybe meet a new study buddy!

Note that this is a space for student interaction, and the number of people in the room will vary throughout the day. If you're interested in chatting with other 7Sagers but don't see anyone in the room at the time, I encourage you to pop out the chat panel and just leave it running. You can separate Zoom's chat into its own window by clicking the button at the top right corner of the panel:

alt="popout_chat_panel"/>

The chat lounge will be open 9:00 AM - 5:00 PM (Eastern Time) from 1/22 through 1/26.

Let us know what you think in this thread. What features do you look for in a chat space? If there were multiple spaces dedicated to different LSAT topics, what would you be most interested in seeing?

Took PT's 50-59 and 70 up to 76 and have consistently been scoring in the 153 -155 range. Took PT 80 and got a 150 and its no big deal, transition from 70's PT's to PT's in the 80 is kinda hard but ill take a 150. Bro I go to take PT 81 and I did so bad in section 2 of the LR for it, I probably wouldve got more correct if I closed my eyes and randomly selected answers. I understand that there are some anomalies out there but I did so bad in this LR section Im kinda scared to continue forward and Im taking the February LSAT. Not sure what to do. I dont think Im screwed because ive been scoring in the low to mid 150's for a bit now but Im unsure now. Any advice is appreciated.

Give yourself a break!!!!

Cannot stress this enough!

I just returned to studying after a week off from taking the January official. I feel refreshed, focused, and driven again! Small sample size but my drills have been going phenomenal and can see myself breaking through my high 160's plateau!

If you feel stressed, unfocused, distracted, take a few days to a week off. Go to the gym, read a book, watch that Netflix series you have been dying to check out!

Still hoping for that 170+ on January though lol

I really want to apply for the fall 24 cycle. The only thing holding me back is this damn LSAT score. GPA and other app materials are already drafted and ready to submit. Planning to take the upcoming Feb LSAT. Struggling right now to reach at least a 160. I will settle for 157-159.

Current STATS: highest PT timed so far is a 150. untimed is a 165.

I've been taking at least 2 PTs a week so far this month and been doing the BR for all of them. Idk what else to do to increase my score or if there is still hope for that even happening in the next 2-3 weeks.

Heyo,

This is going to sound ridiculous but I have no idea how to study. My college degree (History/Education) was mostly focused around writing and research, and very rarely did I need to study. I was a notorious procrastinator and while this worked well for me (I graduated with a 3.9 GPA), I realized that in order to succeed on the LSAT and beyond, I need to roll my sleeves up and study. But the problem is is that I have no idea where to start or what works best when studying for the LSAT.

For context, I have been studying for around 4-6 hours a day so far but I don't feel as if it's enough as of right now, and I would like to study for longer periods of time. I seem to be most productive at night. My diagnostic is a 145 when I started the curriculum and I'm still completing it. I would like to get into the high 150s-low 160s, but I'm a bit of a perfectionist and would like to do as well as possible. If I score high, I could get full-tuition from my local law school.

What do you guys do to study for the LSAT? How do you stay motivated? Please send help!

Does LSAC send law schools all of your writing samples (within the 5 year timeframe) if you retook it? Or do they only see most recent sample?

I retook the writing last November because I wasn’t happy with the writing sample I had on file from a year ago. I also took the January test and have the opportunity to take the writing sample again. I am ok with the quality of my retake sample, and I don’t want to take it again if only the most recent is submitted. But if all of them are sent, I don’t see the harm in submitting another sample so law schools can see that the quality of my writing does not vary dramatically.

I have received several, contradictory answers from LSAC, and none of the support staff could directly locate the exact wording under LSAC’s policy or guidelines.

I understand, in the grand scheme of application review, the writing sample doesn’t hold much weight and is required partly for a plagiarism check. But, again, I see no harm done if it gives reviewers access to additional writing.

I am stuck between C and E as answer choices. In this question, they compare two groups - intensive supervision of criminals released on parole and routine supervision. I chose E - that the assumption is that one group doesn't have far more criminals than another. Is this not a valid concern when the premise draws from a percentage? That one group will have more data than the other? Thanks!

So I am taking the February LSAT because my parents were getting on me for not taking it yet, however I do not feel super prepared. I know I have to take it, but I am definitely stressing. Reading Comprehension on the practice tests have been super high so I am not worried as much about focusing my studies towards it. But I was thinking of really diving deep into logic games because I know I can gain the most points there and take the L on LR. Logical reasoning hasn't been terrible for me, but I know that I would need way more time to study it. Does this approach make sense? What would you guys do? ( I am already planning on taking the April or June LSAT)

I am planning on taking the LSAT after the Logic Games will no longer be a component. Is there a way to disable the logic games sections during these prep tests?

If you're ready to get more practice taking a full LSAT Prep Test under simulated online proctor conditions, you're in the right place. The next Proctored PT will take place on Saturday January 20 at 1:00 PM.

Looking forward to the Blind Review sessions on Monday for PT73. Last week's Blind Review sessions for PT70 (LR and RC) were fun! We had a lively debate as to the right answer for a tough Flaw question that dealt with a confusing part-to-whole issue (and a little dreaded math). We also discussed how to attack Comparative RC Passages, like the one on whether money can buy happiness. Can't wait to see more of you there on Monday, January 22nd for Free Live Class Day!

Here's how our Proctored PTs work:

Register by clicking the blue ‘Register’ button on this page.

Once you sign up, you'll receive an email from Zoom with the link to join the meeting.

Select a PT that you want to take for the proctored test. This week's recommended PT is test 73; you're encouraged to attend the associated Blind Review sessions on Monday! (LR Review | RC Review). You can take the PT through 7Sage, or- if you want to simulate real test-day conditions- you can log into LawHub and take it there.

Show up to the Zoom meeting 10 minutes before the scheduled start time (12:50 PM ET). You will all be prompted to complete a room scan (similar to the test-day security measures) at the same time and then put into a breakout room by yourself to complete the test.

Simulate the test! Our 7Sage Proctors will monitor the testing process for the duration of your test and even simulate a pesky interruption. The Proctor will ask if anyone would like to be interrupted at the beginning of the session, and you will have the chance to indicate your preference. If only the Prometric proctors would be so kind as to ask! If you have any approved accommodations, please let us know via private chat at the beginning of the session as well––you will be able to test with those.

If you have any questions, please email bailey.luber@7sage.com. We hope to see you there!

Hi,

I am looking for a few people to study with for the April/June 2024 LSATs. I am trying to get to a level where I am consistently scoring in the 170s/can break 175+ so am ideally looking for a few people around the same level to prep for future LSATs. I recently took the January LSAT so I'm making this post in anticipation of needing to study for a re-take(s).

👥 Study Group Location: Virtual (Zoom or Google Meets)

🔢 I'm currently scoring: High 160s - Low 170s

📆 My planned test date: April/June 2024

🔍 We'll focus on: anything and everything to get the 175+

📚 When we'll meet and what we'll do: maybe super in-depth review? I've sort of hit a plateau and am looking for people around the same level to bounce ideas/new approaches off of in order to break 175+. Previously did a one-on-one with another test taker and we just took sections/tests and reviewed questions during our weekly sessions.

Please send me a DM with your availability + your current experience with LSAT (particular struggles/strengths, areas of focus, etc.) if interested!

Does 7sage offer any contract courses?

Thank you,

So I applied to a couple local law schools about a month ago and I just realized that I sent my old resume and not my new updated one. The only real change is where I currently work and everything else is relatively the same. I just wanted to be sure if this is ok or should I send it to them as an updated resume? Or should I wait until the decision and then send it to them as an updated resume? The thing is that I stopped working at my previous job in like August and began working at this new place in December. They're both law firm jobs. Someone please let me know how I should handle this? I know it's a minor mistake but still.

If anyone is looking for a study buddy lmk!

PrepTest C - Section 3 - Question 08

I am confused as to why the answer is A and not C.

In the conclusion:

"But this cannot be so, for unless some uses of words are literal, there can be no nonliteral uses of any words."

is the first part:

"for unless some uses of words are literal"

a part of the premise?

Hello I've just purchased Law hub advantage but it still says I don't have a subscription on 7sage.

Hey y'all! I had a unique issue during my Jan 2024 test, where my proctor disconnected while were doing the pre-test room check. I did the complaint, LSAC is now offering me to retest on the 23rd or to cancel the test and take it in Feb 2024.

I've never taken the test before so this is my first attempt at it, but I could really use that extra month of study time. Would there be any real negatives to me just doing that instead of retesting on the 23rd? I'd like to add, per the email I got because I was not exposed to the test, my test will be 'withdrawn' and does NOT count towards my TTL

When I applied for undergrad, there was a huge emphasis on FAFSA. My question is, do I need to apply for FAFSA for Law School? Is it necessary? Do the FAFSA requirements vary from school to school? If I missed the deadline for this cycle for FAFSA and am in Law School, can I apply during the next cycle? Besides the LSAT, LSAC, CAS and actual school applications, is there anything else I should be applying for or keeping an eye out for?

Hi! I am just wondering if I am supposed to complete all the problem sets as I am moving through the curriculum or if I should be saving some of them?
