Hi!
I'm less than a week out from the august LSAT test and am feeling burnt out and a little discouraged with my PTs. I know that I will most likely have to take the test again in October but still want to put my best foot forward. Does anyone have any advice leading up to the test? Any advice on getting over plateau I am at for Oct test studying?
Really would like some clarification on this! I know this is what it's like with medical school, and even undergrad. Does this hold true for law schools? For example, let's say I'm an applicant from...Minnesota; will I be held to a much higher admissions standard applying somewhere like...University of New Mexico?
Can someone explain why E and not B is the correct answer? I am not totally convinced by the explanation given here. This is because the idea that the work is split equally is not explicitly used as "one of the argument's presuppositions." However, the relevance of West's conclusion to the premises is directly implicated as he clearly does not use the relevant evidence (the proportion of correct decisions made by the quality control workers). Any help would be appreciated.
Hi, I recently got my score for the September 2023 LSAT (I just finished the writing section) and I am wondering if I should cancel it. I got a 165, however, I am retaking the test this August (2024) and again this September. I have recently been testing in the high 160's and low 170's and so I was wondering if I should cancel the 165 or just let it stay. I would really appreciate the advice!
Is anyone interested in holding each other accountable that lives in the Denver area? It could just be to sit down and do work together or more collaborative if we have similar goals/current preparation levels.
Did everyone else just get a huge amount of content added to their reading comprehension section? For the entire month I've been using 7sage there has only been the science passages section, which I did think was weird. Have I been using the format wrong or was there just a big update..?
Hello everyone,
If you are looking for a serious study group, please DM me or respond to this post with your discord user. Our group meets every Saturday and discusses the same PT section we have all taken, time or untimed (depending on where you are at). Essentially, think of it as a blind review as a group, except we analyze questions to the point where we hammer down clear cut patterns to replicate on most other questions and question types. Success is achieved when you bounce tactics off one another as to figure out what works universally, or what works best personally. You do not need to be available every single week to join, but we're looking for engagement.
Hi everyone! I’ve never posted on here before, but with one month of studying basically just the fundamentals and MC/MSS LR questions, I went from a 146 diagnostic to 150! Even though I know it’s not a good score, I am really proud of improving, and even more proud of getting a 156 on my Blind Review! To me, it shows that the time constraint is one of the biggest challenges for me, so with enough practice, I can get my score up even higher.
Basically the title, I finished RC on Monday and the entire CC, but with the new update to RC is it wise to go back and do the CC or should I start my next phase. A little bit of background info, I do not have a test date planned but rather a target score, I do have one constraint which is I need to take the LSAT on or before January. I am finishing my undergrad come September so that’s another variable. I have taken the LSAT once before and RC was a weak point of mine, although I do feel slightly confident after doing the RC curriculum. Would like a professional opinion on what I should do.
Hi all,
I have been studying for the LSAT since March. I started with a 143 diagnostic, and there was a slow and steady improvement since then. For the last 5 prep-tests, I have been scoring between 157-159 (BR 163 - 165) and I feel pretty confident with my skills to be in this score band. My goal is to score between 163-165. I registered for the September sitting which is in approximately 5 weeks. I feel like it's doable and within my grasp. Are there any tips or advice from people who were in my shoes, to overcome the 160 barrier?
I'm doing two sections daily and one prep test a week.
I would really appreciate any advice on studying tactics, warmup, test strategies...etc.
does anyone have an estimate for how many hours the new RC curriculum will take? i planned out my schedule thinking it would only be 8-10 hours but it's wayyyy longer now and i'm kind of freaking out about having enough time to get through it all
Is anyone here from Alabama or looking to attend law school in Alabama?

Suddenly I click out of a lesson on science passages and I'm only a quarter way through reading comp...
I just took my second prep test on Lawhub and none of it is updated in 7sage. I didn't do the second test through the 7Sage site but 7Sage was linked (it grabbed my first prep test). Until it is updated I can't see any of my analytics.
Has anyone else had the same issue? Can someone redirect me to some help?
It seems like numerous sections have been added to the Reading Comprehension section of the Core Curriculum. Would love some further insight into the update, like what was changed and why. Also, each lesson says it would take only 1 minute, yet some lessons have videos that are 5 minutes or longer. Some clarity on what is happening would be great if possible. Thank you 7Sage team!

I decided to take a gap year at the last minute after my recommenders had already submitted my letters of rec into LSAC. Can I still use these letters when applying for the next cycle or should I get them updated. Idk what to do because one was a professor I haven’t had for awhile so there isn’t anything to update and one is from an internship I had for a semester where there also isn’t anything to update anymore.
I have realized that for certain NA questions, when I try to negate the answer choices, the answer choice gets even more confusing to understand. And I don't believe it is because I am negating it incorrectly, it just that when I negate the answer choice it does not make sense at all. Should I keep in mind that it is better to not use the negation method for certain NA questions or should I force myself to understand the negation of the answer choice?
Example question: PT101 S2 Q17
Hey everyone! Does anybody know a way to markup on the questions/pretests on an ipad. Everytime I try it says I need owner permission (even when I try duplicating the file)! It would be nice to be able to use an apple pencil to write on the questions as I go along on either drills or preptests. Advice would be appreciated!
Does anyone know why A is correct here? There is no explanation video so I'm a little confused.
Admin Note: Edited title. For LR questions, please use the format: "PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of the question."
Hi all, is anyone else having an issue where the questions for their analytics have disappeared?
Lets get together october test takers.
Hey guys. I am starting to feel really defeated when it comes to this test. I am doing amazing on the you try its when I was going though the core curriculum and its just getting my timing down for that. I keep seeing just keep drilling and your speed will get better. However, whenever I take a PrepTest, I am BOMBING them. I seem to get more questions wrong and my timing is horrible. I have no idea how I'm supposed to jump a minimum of 10-15 points by October. I have been studying for 4 months now and I have only improved 9 points. Any advice would be greatly appreciated because I feel like I'm seeing law school slip through my hands and its crushing me.
I keep getting this message while I was going through my lessons. I tried everything to get it to work but nothing changes. Is this still happening to anyone else ? Very inconvenient.
