In LR, the non correct answers are not just “less correct” in comparison to the credited answer, they also generally have something which makes them, in isolation, a bad answer and easily eliminated.

Is the same true for RC? Or will there be times when two answers are plausible and you have to make a judgement call which is better.

Obviously one AC is more supported than the other and one can understand that support and the rationale from the passage, but I’m wondering whether in RC one can generally assume there will be things actually wrong with the non credited answers.

Thanks sm!!

Hi everyone! I'm about a month away from taking the September LSAT, and I'm starting to wonder if I should postpone to October. I've been studying consistently since June, but I'm still scoring around -8 in both LR and RC. I'm reviewing my mistakes and trying different strategies, but I don't feel like I'm where I need to be yet.

Since I don't have the strongest GPA, I'm hoping for a higher LSAT score to strengthen my application. I'm worried that taking the September test before I'm ready could hurt me, but I'm also concerned about delaying my application if I move to October.

Would it be best take the September test or postpone to October? Can I improve significantly by then? I'd really appreciate the advice. Thanks!

I think a really cool feature would be to able to see the how your accuracy in a tag changed after taking a drill/section/PT, kind of how when you gain/lose ELO in a competitive game like chess.com.

It would really gamify the whole priorities system and give you that dopamine hit from improving your accuracy.

I am currently in my second round of studying and have been consistently studying for 7 months. I began with the core curriculum and have been working through a mix of drills, sections, and PTs. My score has moved from a diagnostic score in the 140s, to the mid 150s in my first round of studying, to a 155 official score on the October 2025 test, now to the low 160s. I have been trying to focus on specific question types that I am consistently missing. While I have seen vast improvement on conditional reasoning questions and in RC questions as a whole, I am still missing a large number of causal reasoning questions. I have tried to diagnosis the issue and figure out where I am going wrong when answering causal reasoning questions, but I have not been able to nail down the misstep. I am looking for a tutor to help me figure out where I am going wrong on causal reasoning question types. I am taking the September 2026 test so I realize time to improve is quickly fleeting, but I am determined to put in the work needed to address the gaps. Please reach out if you think you can help! Thank you!

Sometimes I want to redo the exact same drill after reviewing my mistakes, but recreating it every time takes extra work and time. I think a one-click Retake Drill button would make studying and tracking improvement so much easier :)

Does anyone else want this?

Last week while out climbing I came across this sign, which makes for a great Math exercise. I'm gonna give you a series of questions to answer. Post your answers to them all, or just one, or a few you feel confident in.

I'm off on another trip this weekend, but when I get back I'll loop around and give feedback on everyone's answers. I might even choose a winner to give some kind of prize. No guarantees on that last part lol.

Here's the challenge.

Based on these graphs and the text above, I've come to two conclusions:

i) 5.8 is the most dangerous climbing grade in Eldo.

ii) Most accidents on 5.8 routes in Eldo are a result of leader falls.

Please provide correct answer choices to the following questions. Bonus points for wording them as closely to real LSAT answers as possible. I encourage you to look at example Math questions for guidance on phrasing.

1: Why is each conclusion vulnerable to criticism?

2: For each conclusion, what fact, if true, would undermine that conclusion?

3: For each conclusion, what fact, if true, would support that conclusion?

4: For each conclusion, what question, if true, would help us determine the truth of that conclusion?

5: For each conclusion, what is an assumption required for that conclusion to follow from the information in the photo?

6: For each conclusion, what assumption would allow that conclusion to be properly inferred from the information in the photo?

I am applying to 6 ontario law schools this cycle. 4 of these schools have the same personal statement prompt, the only difference is that they each want to know WHY THAT SCHOOL- so I have written one personal statement, and will revise it for each school to answer the "why them" - but how should i answer this? should i weave the answer throughout the essay, or simply add a paragraph answering "why them"?

Is it based on content difficulty? Question difficulty? Both?

Thanks!

How do you train endurance? I always make the most mistakes in the last section and am losing points on questions I would otherwise be able to answer.

Hello! Just wondering if I could get advice from any instructors or high-scorers on how to become better at skipping a question and moving on? Is there a sort of confidence drill that I can do to help build that habit? Over the past few tests, I've noticed a pattern of freezing early in an LR section and spending 4+ minutes on one level 2-3 question and spending 20+ minutes on Passages 1 and 2 on RC. As you can imagine, I'm burning through a lot of time in the beginning/middle of sections, and it's costing me quite a bit of time and points towards the end.

Sometimes I get stuck on a question because of two tricky contenders, but most of the time it's because I know I can figure it out but I panic and start jumbling up my diagrams and refuse to move on from the question. I know that I should just flag it and come back to it, but I don't trust myself to have enough time!

This hasn't always been an issue for me, but I think I recently slipped into a very bad habit of needing to be 100% confident of every correct answer before moving on. How do I learn to trust 70-80% confidence on an answer?

Thanks in advance!

Does anyone else struggle with Strengthen/Weaken questions or questions that ask which answer does the "most"? I usually get down to two answer choices, but then I can find flaws in both. Once I see those flaws, neither answer feels right, and I end up overthinking which one is "less wrong." Even after review, I sometimes don't understand why one answer is considered significantly better than the other. Has anyone else dealt with this? How did you learn to compare answer choices without getting caught up looking for the "perfect" answer?

are there any drawbacks to writing the optional essay that some schools offer?

my main personal statement is about a unique life event that has progressed throughout my life and inspired me to pursue law; i slightly mention my identity/culture (like 2 sentences that tie into the event etc.) i want to write an optional essay more about my identity, cultural upbringing, and family household which also influences my decision to go to law school.

are there any drawbacks to this?

Hello! I was wondering if anyone knew the importance of your resume for law school applications straight out of undergraduate. I've had a few jobs and internships, but they are fairly eccentric (psychiatry, teaching, education, religion, etc). I've basically got nothing that would indicate I have an interest in the legal field.

Does anyone know how much significance T14 or T30 schools put on your resume and previous legal experience? I want to go to law school to become a lawyer, but I haven't been able to find any opportunities as an undergraduate.

Thank you!

Hey yall,

Since my ask a tutor button isn’t working, I thought I’d ask for help here. For this question, I thought the unstated premise was: tragedies and comedies major characters have moral qualities that do not reflect the worlds they are in (the logical negation of the classification of romance and satires, which is the moral qualities of major characters do reflect the worlds they are in) . But the correct answer choice, D states the moral qualities of major characters in tragedy’s and comedy’s do not change throughout the action ( the negation of the classification for tragedies and comedies)

Why is the unstated premise here AC D, the negation of the classification for tragedies and comedies rather than the unstated premise I had predicted?

I know this is a SA q btw, I’m trying to push myself to find the gap by thinking what the unstated premises are

do i need to contact every single one of my verifiers and let them know im adding them to my application?? also, how would i list something on my abs that i cant really "specify" hours by week/month.... for example, I'm a volunteer for my city, I volunteer for city events/shifts/programs sporadically as they become available on the city app. each event has different people overseeing it. how would i list this and who would i add as a verifier for so many different volunteering events?

I have no clue what clicking the "Keyboard Highlight" button does on the sidebar. If it makes highlighting quicker, I would love to figure it out if anyone knows.

Hey guys!! Who else is taking the August LSAT? I'm scared ngl. How are y'alls PTs going?? I haven't hit my goal score yet I'm nervous omg but I'm getting closer.

Are some of y'alls PTs feeling much harder than others? I just did PT145 and I thought I was going to die lol. I did PT144 last week and it felt like a breeze in comparison. I'm scared for the August test: hopefully it won't feel impossibly evil lmfao.

Are y'all doing any specific studying techniques? Do you feel prepared? How are y'all planning on managing test day nerves?

Hey all it feels like I’m a bit stuck in the 160-165 range. Are there any tips that helped you break into the 170 range?

Hello everyone,

My name is João, and I scored a 171 on the June LSAT. I’m currently offering LSAT tutoring focused on helping students identify and eliminate recurring mistakes through a structured, detail-oriented review process.

As a non-native English speaker, I understand the specific challenges that can come with mastering Logical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension. My own preparation involved breaking down every mistake carefully and building targeted drills to fix weak patterns rather than just doing more practice tests.

What I offer:

1. Free initial consultation to analyze your current performance and identify key improvement areas

2. Detailed review of your PrepTests to detect recurring mistake patterns

3. Personalized drills tailored specifically to your weaknesses

4. Customized study plan focused on efficient score improvement

5. Strategy development for Logical Reasoning (my main strength)

If we are a good fit after the consultation, my rate is $20/hour.

This is best suited for students who are around the 150–160 range and want to break into the 160s or 170s with a more structured and analytical approach.

Feel free to reach out if you’d like to set up a consultation or ask any questions.

Best, João

Hi everyone,

I'm looking for an experienced LSAT tutor who can help me improve as quickly and efficiently as possible. I started with a 130 diagnostic and am currently around 140 after about 2 months of self-study.

I've made solid progress in identifying question types and understanding what each question is asking. On one of my recent LR sections, I scored -13 timed, but improved to -5 on Blind Review. I usually get around +8 on blind review, which makes me think my biggest issues are execution, timing, and consistency rather than understanding the material.

I've been consistently studying with 7Sage, working through the Core Curriculum and learning the foundations rather than just drilling questions. I've completed over 400 Logical Reasoning questions and put in a lot of time, but I think I've reached the point where personalized coaching would help me improve much faster.

My goal is to score 165+ on the LSAT and apply this admissions cycle.

If you've helped students make similar improvements, I'd love to hear about your experience, your LSAT score, your hourly rate, and your availability. Thanks!

As many have noted LSAC is changing a lot of things about the LSAT interface and many have ascribed this to LSAC fighting score inflation. How possible is it that the August LSAT will be much more difficult than PrepTests 140-159?

If it is much more difficult will schools take notice?

I'm trying to score in the high 150s and maybe even break 160 by November. My plan is to apply to schools like American and Catholic up in D.C. My undergrad GPA is a 3.9 and I have T3 softs. This test has been extremely difficult and humbling for me, so if I can somehow get a high 150 in my October or Nov attempts, I will be ecstatic. (currently have a 152 on file..)

I'm just wondering if applying by late November will drastically change my admissions and tuition help outcomes. Would appreciate anyone's advice!

Also a side question, would I have a shot at top 100 schools with a 152? Thank you!

Hi! I scored a 168 in June and will be taking the August and potentially September exams. I'm stuck scoring around 170 and would like to bump my score to a 173. I'm looking for a few tailored sessions to help me break through my plateau.

Bonus points if you've had experience working with students with ADHD!

Hey everyone! I have had a wild ride in studying for the LSAT... After my 4th attempt, I decided to start over completely with 7 Sage, thanks to my friends' advice!

I'm definitely improving on my accuracy and timing, but I think I can do even better! I have started a wrong answer journal in a little red notebook, with each page explaining why I chose the wrong answer, what's wrong about that answer, why the right answer is right, and why I missed the right answer. I want to do better at understanding the patterns in my wrong answers, so I can address them.

However, the way I'm currently doing it, identifying patterns is not happening. Does anyone have a method that works really well for them, or maybe even an app that's worth it? Any advice or suggestions on formatting wrong answer journals would be very helpful! Happy studying!
