This is a study group open to all students of all levels of ability and experience. It is focused primarily on mutual accountability and staying focused. There is no need to join at start time or stay to the end. This Group is here to work for you, in whatever capacity you are able to benefit from it.
Most study groups are about 90% social and 10% actual work. Y'all know how it goes. And those study groups are really valuable and important. I highly recommend being a part of one. This Group, however, is for staying focused, grinding it out, and taking care of business. It's about accountability rather than participation. We will make a bit of space for breaks and camaraderie, but the main thing is to come together, put our heads down, and get our work done.
We'll have regular meetings on Sunday afternoons, but I'll also go live at times throughout the week, so if you're studying (or trying to) and you see that the Group is live, please feel welcome to join!

Does anyone have any tips for these questions? I tend to have to work through each answer choice to see if it would have a similar effect to the removed condition but that is lengthy and doesn't always produce a must be true answer for me.
Perhaps this question has already been asked; however, I just wanted to see what people have to say about it. I am autistic; I was diagnosed shortly after my graduation. I have been interested in the career of Haley Moss, an autistic attorney from Florida. Anyway, I'm just wondering if my autism diagnosis has the potential to give me a boost in law admissions, especially to the t-14?
I would also like to point out that I am a non-traditional white male applicant, who graduated in 2014. I'm essentially wondering if I can use this in a diversity statement or not. Any thoughts on this would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Im having a hard time figuring out how you are suppose to come to the correct answer choice, it seems I just can not comprehend how to do these types of questions... please help lol
When can we expect the explanation videos for this PT?
Where can a non-traditional applicant with 3.6 gpa (with lsat175+)go? 🤔
Can someone explain why C is right? I initially chose D and can now see why D isn't necessarily true for Passage B, but I can't figure out why C applies to Passage B.
Hi I have registered for November's test. My questions is how early should I log into the test? Or how early would I be allowed to log in? 10min, 20min, 30min, or just right on time? I learned that checking in might take up some time. Thank you!
HELP PLEASE!
I took my first official LSAT in October and I definitely did not do as good as I knew I could've. I was super nervous and I blacked out at the second section and I felt so disappointed in myself that I low-key gave up on the other sections, prompting me to get a score of 152. I'm going to take it again in January and hopefully I won't be as nervous and really be able to use my brain, knowledge, and skills I've learned for the past 8 months of studying.
SO, what should I do, should I cancel my 152 or keep it? I want to go to USC Gould and I know the LSAT range is a lot higher than what I got, but I know the next time I take it I'm giving it my all and not second-guessing myself as much as I did. So what do you guys suggest?
I am scheduled to write the November LSAT this Saturday and I still don't feel completely ready for it. I have not yet written my LSAT writing and haven't looked into it yet as I have been pretty focused on studying for the LSAT itself. I know there is the option to write the LSAT writing after the exam, but you may not receive your LSAT score until your writing sample is completed. Although the application deadline to my top two school choices is Dec 1, but I am waiting to get my score back to decide (depending on my score) if I want to cancel it and rewrite for the January exam. I am wondering how long it usually takes for LSAT score to come back and if I would be setting myself up by waiting and writing my written portion after my exam Saturday.
Any advice for someone whose score has been plateuing? I've been scoring in the low 160s consistently and just want to hear from those who have improved from this point. The questions I'm getting wrong are evenly spread out amongst the sections.
Hi, this is a necessary assumption question.
The conclusion is "by using recycled glasses instead of glass made from raw materials, bottlers can lower their costs and benefit the environment at the same time."
The answer is D. "purchasing and transport costs are not so much greater for recycled glass than for raw materials that they outweigh the savings in energy costs resulting from the use of recycled glass."
I cannot understand why the answer is D.. and also I cannot get the meaning of D. The savings in energy costs are outweighed by...
please, help me!

I am really struggling to see improvement on logical reasoning. I consistently score-8/-9. I have went through the curriculum on 7sage and have been consistently drilling. There is not a single question type I am always getting wrong, it seems to be random. I am starting to panic as I plan to take the January Lsat.
I know this has been asked prior but in light of 93 being released, anyone have their take on the hardest prep tests available to us currently? I've heard a lot about the high 80s and especially 84 but I wondered if there was a general consensus, despite the subjective nature of the experience. I got a 172 on 84 but I am curious if it was just easy/fluke or, if like some of the Reddit analyses I've read, it really was a difficult test for many.
Trying to figure out what snacks are best and the optimal thing to do during break to stay motivated
Can someone explain this to me?
Is it bad to applying to a lot of schools, what are the downsides to it? Do schools know if somehow has a lot of applications to other places?
Is there a way I can just purchase a session with an admissions person on 7Sage to edit/talk about my personal statement? Help, thank you!
Hello everyone! I am consistently getting flaw or descriptive weaking questions wrong. No matter what I do, I just cannot improve. Does anyone have tips for these types of questions? Also, just in general. I always get stuck between two answers and choose the wrong one. Sometimes I choose the right one and over think and then I change it. How can I gain more confidence in myself?
Hi everyone,
So bewildered by this question that I have to post on the discussion forum. Why is answer choice E correct??? After analyzing all the answer choices, it seems to me that NONE of the answer choices is even close to being correct. If someone can see a flaw in my reasoning, please advise.
Missing Assumption: the higher amount of pollutants in the Baltic Sea is making the Baltic seals more susceptible/succumb-able to viral diseases and therefore is what's causing the higher rate of viral deaths in Baltic seals (compared to Scottish seals).
In other words, we're assuming that it is not some alternative cause that's causing the higher viral death rate in the Baltic seals (for example, what if the viruses infecting the 2 islands are different, and the virus in the Baltic sea is just more deadly than the virus in the Scottish sea?)
A: Irrelevant - doesn't make it more believable that the higher rate of viral deaths in B is due to pollutants. Knowing more about the Scottish seals doesn't really matter here!
B: Might've be a potential strengthener if it said "Baltic seals" instead of "Scottish seals", but even then we would have to make the assumption that the virus infecting the two islands were the same kind of virus in order for us to see this as a strengthener.
However, it's still talking about the Scottish seals, which again is not what we care about!
C: Easiest choice to eliminate. Irrelevant!
D : "The kinds of pollutants" is irrelevant to our discussion here, because we care about the amount and not type of pollutants. In other words, even if the pollutants are different between the 2 islands are different, I'm not more convinced that the higher amount of pollutants in B is what resulted in the higher rate of viral deaths in B.
E: Also irrelevant to the issue at hand! Even if the viral death rate was higher for other sea mammals in the Baltic sea, it doesn't make me believe more that it is SPECIFICALLY the pollutants that are causing the higher viral death rates! The only thing this AC does for me is convince me that there is certainly something different between the Baltic and Scottish seas that's making the Baltic seals die more from viral diseases, however we have no idea if that "something" is pollutants or if it's something else! For example, given the additional info in E, it could still very well be that it is NOT the pollutants causing the higher viral death rates, but a deadlier virus that infects all marine mammals in the Baltic seas - because the virus in the Baltic sea is different and deadlier than the virus in the Scottish sea, the seals die more from this virus in the Baltic seas (than in the Scottish seas from the weaker virus). It could still very well be that the higher level of pollutants in the Baltic seals' blood is just a coincidence and not the real cause of their higher viral death rate.
If you see where I've gone wrong in my reasoning, please help!

Thank you 7Sage for helping me achieve this dream of mine! My entire study process ran from January 2021 to October 2022 with a few breaks in between. I got to a 163 with two other test prep companies and then started to stall in June 2022. That's when I turned to 7Sage, largely for the affordability.
7Sage made all the difference with the focus on blind review (so key!) and the view of logic games as largely an exercise in muscle memory. Two other things that made a huge difference: 1) keeping an error journal and logging my mistakes and what I needed to do differently based on question type, and 2) learning how to do basic meditation to keep my mind calm during tests.
Ultimately, I had a 22 point jump and I credit so much of that to 7Sage. If you have a LSAT dream, I believe in you! You got this!
Can we use an ipad on the digital lsats? I'm confused how we're supposed to highlight or do any marking quickly if we have to use a mouse on a laptop rather than a stylus that can function like a pen
Hi, everyone, I'm new here! I've been studying for the LSAT for a couple months now (went through the Logic Games Bible and have taken about 5 practice tests - averaging 162, goal is 170), and so I'm wondering where I should start here. Given that I have only about two months until the January LSAT, should I work through the Core Curriculum, or should I take a PT to see where I'm weak and work on those specific areas?
I'd love to hear any advice anyone has.
I got this answer correct but I did not diagram. Not sure how to diagram this stimulus. Thanks!
Hi, is anyone interested in reviewing PT 93 together today or tomorrow before the November exam? I got a 178 but I was really lucky & want to go over some LR & RC questions. Please PM me and I'll send you a Zoom link :)
