Hey! As a current law student who went through the admissions process relatively recently, I know how overwhelming everything can feel. I'm here to hopefully relieve some of your anxiety!

After a 155 initial diagnostic, I studied over the course of several months while working full time and was able to get to a point where I was consistently scoring in the 175~180 range. With an official score of 170 and a year of law school under my belt, I'm excited to share what I've learned and help others achieve their goals.

What I'm offering:

  • My tutoring style is highly conversational and interactive. I believe students learn best by actively engaging with concepts and working through problems together, rather than simply listening to explanations.

  • Personalized, one-on-one sessions via Zoom

  • 35$/hour with a free initial consultation

  • Accessibility outside of lessons via text, or email for general questions

  • Someone to chat with about the admissions process in general!

Free Initial Consultation:

  • Short chat regarding your goals, and how I can help

  • Quick walkthrough of a couple of LSAT problems to get a sense of how our sessions would look

If interested, please shoot me an email at jadecho@bu.edu! I'd be happy to chat and see if I'm a good fit for you.

160+ scorer trying to break into the 170s. Planning to take the Sept 2026 test.

Looking for a study buddy or very small group to hold each other accountable (checking in daily) and go over tests/sections together (about 1x a week).

I work full time, so I am mostly studying early mornings or evenings.

In NYC, but this can be virtual. Looking for people that really want an accountability buddy!

Feel free to leave a comment or chat me.

I need advice/help

Hi, today I took a practice test and scored a 155, previously having scored 151 and 153, but it has been two months. Am I studying wrong? It is especially frustrating as I have been drilling very well and the score predictions on my drills are averaging in the mid-160s. I really want to take the August LSAT as it will be easier to take it at home rather than at college where I don't have a car. I am a reverse splitter as my GPA is in the 3.9 range (I still need to calculate CAS GPA based on last semester but I got all As and A+s and only one A-). I am okay not going to a T14 or even T25, in fact at this point I just want to be in Chicago. One school I would qualify for their honors full ride if I can get a 161, but even that seems so far off. Can I get some study advice, reverse splitter advice, and August LSAT advice? I feel like I should have improved more, I am especially frustrated because it seems Logic Reasoning has barely gone up at all despite practicing it everyday and going through the core curriculum. It seems every time someone posts about score increases it is either in one month or two years, and a gap year is not an option for me. Even just paying for 7Sage for another year is not an option. Please provide any advice you can!

160s Plateau Advice

Hi guys!

I've been studying since February. I started with a 156 diagnostic and have a goal score of 172+, and I just took the June test (planning on taking it again in August).

I am just so stuck on these practice tests. I got a 170 in late April, so I thought I was on an upward trend, but the six PTs I've taken since have all been between 166-168 (175+ on the BR). I know it's good that I'm consistently in that range, but I can't seem to break the 170s and I'm starting to wonder if I've hit my limit for the August test.

I've been studying for about an hour a day with drills focused on my weakest question types and fixing my timing. I felt SO good this past week about my progress, was consistently getting perfect scores on untimed and timed drills, and it didn't translate at all to my PT. There's not really a consistent pattern to what I'm getting wrong.

Has anyone experienced this and been able to improve? Is there any change in study technique I should consider?

hi! this might be kinda goofy but i would love a drill option that eliminates questions that have any diagramming / likely require written work cuz i like to drill while im on my transit to work and i dont have scratch paper to diagram conditionals or formal logic when doing that. i know i could technically probably do that myself in settings but it would be great to just have like a ‘i’m on a bus’ option when clicking adaptive drills LOL. just sharing an idea!

I'm scoring pretty high, one of the only areas that regularly causes me the most problems (both incorrect answers and getting them right but going too slow) are questions with Causal Reasoning , and I suppose Phenomenon/Hypo questions.

I've been through core curriculum, it just hasn't really helped me. I want to know for those of you who are exceptionally good at questions with this sort of logic, what are your tips? What helped break through to reliably be fast and accurate? I sometimes miss or take a long time on super easy questions. I've been to a lot of classes I understand the general mistakes/flaws, I think I just struggle most when the stimulus doesn't have obvious language indicating that it is a causal relationship or that it is a phenomenon/hypothesis relationship.

Just an example, on pt 158, s4, q12, didn't realize it was a phenomenon/hypo relationship (was it just the causal : The only effective check on grass and brush fires is rain. If the level of rainfall is below normal for an extended period of time, then there are many more such fires. Yet grass and brush fires cause less financial damage overall during long periods of severe drought than during periods of relatively normal rainfall.

Hi,

I'm preparing for the September LSAT with a target in the 175+ range.

Quick context: I started with a 136. I've been studying for about three months and my blind review scores are consistently high now (168-172), but my timed scores sit in the low 150s. So my gap isn't content knowledge. It's execution under time, decision-discipline (I tend to find the right answer and then talk myself out of it), and reading speed, since English is my second language and I never studied it academically. RC is my biggest point-loss area; LR is stronger. I'm Portuguese, my education was between Portugal, Brazil and the US (but I'm not used to standardized tests). And I have a Law degree already (but, thank god, we don't do LSATs in Europe)

I'm looking for targeted help on exactly those things rather than a from-scratch curriculum. I'd want to understand how you'd approach this kind of timed-vs-untimed gap, and roughly how many sessions you'd suggest given my timeline.

Thanks,

Mariana

I started with a 150 diagnostic and currently got a 156 on my recent pt, my goal is to get 168 and wondering if theres any way to gauge my progress if im on track for that goal, am i behind? does 7sage offer anywhere to gauge this and see if im on track.

When is it appropriate to choose a potential alternate explanation? I am finding it difficult to find when it is appropriate to choose this AC, or when it is flat out irrelevant. A good example is PT104.S2.P3.Q17

The passage seemed to be focusing on the dark plumage and although I could understand how other characteristics can play a factor- how should I think about when it is appropriate to consider alternative explanations? To my memory, I have chosen this options in previous questions but have been met with the answers being irrelevant.

How do we go back to the old format? I see this question has been asked by several of my fellow future LSAT test takers. I just completed a RC drill. I answered eight questions only to be told, when I thought I was submitting the drill and going into blind review, that eight questions were unanswered. What?

Pretty non-traditional student but I just feel very intimidated looking at all of the admissions communities (reddit, tiktok, here) with people posting doom and gloom about their 3.7s and 170+s.

I graduated from the US Military Academy (West Point) back in 2020 and have spent the past 6 years and change in the army including a combat deployment to Iraq. I'm really hoping that this non-traditional experience will help me out and get me into some solid schools.

I've been really trying to focus on what I can control, my personal essay, my resume, etc. I've finished my personal statement (I think its lowkey a banger but it might just be your run-of-the-mill army guy essay ngl). Currently looking at applying to schools in the 40-100+ ranking with my absolute number 1 being Oklahoma.

Am I cooked?

Study Plan Feature

Hi,

First of all, I have been using 7Sage for almost half a year and truly enjoy studying through the current interface!

As someone who uses the study plan feature, I was wondering if it is possible to mix both RC and LR section in the same day.

When I create a study plan, it consists of doing RC one day and LR the other. Is there a way to mix both RC and LR practice on the same day?

I think it would be nice to have a feature to manually or through AI analytics based on our performance to balance RC and LR section for the study plan!

Thank you!

Offering Free Tutoring

Hi everyone! I just took the June LSAT and I am planning on taking the August/September LSAT. Between now and then, I wanted to take a new approach to help break into my goal score. It has been suggested that tutoring others could be helpful to achieve this and gain a new perspective.

I have been PT'ing in the high 160s and have a solid grasp of the fundamentals. We can discuss PT's, drills, or anything that would be most helpful. If anyone would be interested in free tutoring (30-45 min sessions), please leave a comment or DM me directly! :)

the discussion tab being the one of the first things you see when you open 7sage can be kinda distracting. and depending on your current scoring level, it can be either motivating or demotivating to see ppl post their scores :/ maybe i'm being petty but i would love if a toggle button could be added so you can sometimes choose to not see the discussion when you first open 7sage.
