As I was trying to complete my grammar lesson 30, it stated the page wasn't found as well as the rest of the lessons on the syllabus after it? Does anyone know how to fix that?

The first practice exam I took I got a 155, which I was pretty happy about considering it was my first PT. On my second, most recent PT however, I scored a 147. Does anyone have any good study recommendations/tips and tricks? I’ve been studying a lot but I don’t understand what I’m doing wrong.

My PT exam score continues to go down 1-2 points each time I take a new one and it is very discouraging. For context, I have taken three in total with the first two being the obsolete format where I excluded logic games. The most recent I took with the 7Sage modern format. Is this normal?

I have been studying for the LSAT using 7sage since early June and I was actually starting to improve the first 7 weeks or so. However, this past month my scores have dropped slowly with each practice test I take (a point or so every time). The steady decrease is concerning, as I am trying to take the test in September, and it feels like not a whole lot I am doing to study is working. If anyone has any advice to get my scores up, it would be greatly appreciated!

I purchased my first lsat prep book in October of 2020. It was the princeton review book. Things haven't been easy, and I've used many different prep programs, but in 2023 I started to see major progress through 7sage. I've never given up. I work on the lsat every day.

Ill be 28 next month. My conception of an lsat student is someone who's like 22 or 23. What is the relationship between the lsat and someone's age? I love learning more and more about the test each day. I want to get a score in the 160s and get into my local law school. But I cant help but see, in my peripheral vision, the months fly by

Greetings everyone. I am very lost on what my best approach would be and would appreciate some advice please. I began studying around May using the LSAT trainer by Mike Kim and finished the book along with one practice test however I ran out of time on every section and scored poorly despite having a good grasp on how to approach most questions. The schools I am planning to apply to would prefer that I write my first LSAT before the November deadline and therefore I plan to write the October LSAT and if needed, a second one in January. I am currently working through the 7sage core curriculum. For the next two months up until October I plan to dedicate all my time to the LSAT. I am able to dedicate 7-8 hours everyday (around 49+ hours a week to the LSAT) however I do not know what the best approach is to make the most of these 2 months. Before I do practice tests I know it is recommended I finish the CC however due to my previous studying I was wondering if it would be smart to begin practicing them soon. I also heard that drilling is good and was told it may be a good idea to practice timed sections and drills daily such as LR or RC before I move on to practice tests. IF I were to drill daily, would it be smarter to use older LSATs to not waste newer ones for actual practice tests? With 2 months remaining and the deadline approaching for booking the October LSAT I am extremely worried and would appreciate any advise and guidance towards actionable steps to take to do my best come October or worst case January.

Hello fellow 7sagers! I just finished what I'm 70% sure was flopping on my final test, and I'm ready to cut my losses. I wanna feel like something came out of this process (besides making my brain massive), so I cleaned up my notion notes/study template and am donating it to the public to hopefully save other people the time.

Good luck to everyone!

Do you use the highlighter tool in the digital tester? Do you always use the same colors to highlight premises and conclusions? If so, then boy is this the poll for you!

We're working on a new feature for our explanation pages, and your input will help us make it better for you. Please respond to the poll, the comments, or both.

Bonus question for the comments: what do you highlight?

I just finished my first practiced test after finishing the 7sage CC. I have yet to blind review it but I feel insanely discouraged after finishing it as I missed a lot of questions in each section and honestly forget most of the stuff I learned. This is my second crack at the LSAT as well, any tips on how to move forward?

Edit: Thanks to everyone who commented, it made me feel a lot better before I blind reviewed and I ended up getting a 164 on my BR!

Hey 7Sage, I was wondering what happened to the print feature on the drilling page. I usually print out passages and do them during work or when traveling to and from. It is a good way to practice when I don't have access to the internet but now the function is gone even on the older version. Will this be brought back? This was one of the best features of the course compared to all other paid courses available

Hey everyone,

The new LR tags are pretty confusing to me. The basic ones before I found were easy to understand in terms of what I needed to work on. Now it's telling me to work on what seems to be broad types of questions like Value Judgement and I just want to know the specific question types. Can I make it go back to the original analytical tags or is this permanent?

Thanks!

Wondering if anyone has had this experience: I started studying for this test seriously around mid-June, and plan on taking it in September. My diagnostic score was 164 (after light question practice, untimed; I was working a lot, wish I could have done more), and since then I have taken a few more, whenever I'm feeling it. Tbh, I'm taking longer breaks than I should be (stopping this now as I get closer to test), but my score itself has not improved at all: 164, 165, 164, and, most recently, 163. I'm reviewing questions, seeing why I got things wrong, and right...but alas. However...my blind review scores have gone like this: 169, 169, 178 (!), 173. So, in other words, I have consistent improvement on blind, and none on timed.

I guess my question is: How on earth can I improve my timed performance? It's one thing to know I "have the answers in me" when I have enough time...but I'm struggling on the actual thing. Moreover, not infrequently have I changed correct answers to incorrect answers on blind review, which seems to be a problem.

Wondering if anyone has had a similar experience. I have a month until I take this thing, and I'd really like to make 172+. I know it's possible, but...yeah, how do I fix this? HOW DO I LOCK IN???

When I read a Reading Comprehension passage, I always look for the main idea, like where the author’s opinion or argument stands. For Main Point questions, does the correct answer always show where the author stands? For example, if the first paragraph supports idea A, but paragraphs 2 and 3 support idea B, will the right answer for the Main Point question always reflect the overall support for idea B?

I'm going through the syllabus and I don't know how I'm supposed to study. Should I perfect each question type before I move on, or should I move and go through the whole thing and then begin focused review.

Sometimes I don't know when it's time to move on.

I hate this test. It's so so hard. T-T

I feel helpless.

Hi All,

First, thanks for your time. Secondly, I have watched videos, and supplement videos as well. I have completed all the “You Try” questions and got it all correct.

But, as soon as I attempt the drills, I am not doing very well. Any tips, advice, or notes you can provide?

Thanks in advanced.

Is there anyway to print out the drill sets? Reading off a computer screen doesnt allow me to engage as much as I can on a piece of paper. I find myself doing alot better on paper than on a computer.
