I've been using 7sage for almost a year and this is the first I encounter this problem. The video just keeps loading but won't change to the play button. But only for PT69 LR19 to 25, other PTs and Qs worked when I checked. Also, they worked when I tried to play them on my phone, so I am not sure what is going on...

    Hello everyone,

    I am looking for some tough advice at this point. I have been prepping for the January LSAT for about 4 months now, and have got one month left to go before I take the test. My goal score is 170, and I am currently testing at an average of163 timed, 170 BR, although I have gotten a 171 on PT 55 timed. All other timed tests are at about 160-165. What can I do to reach my goal score by January? For some background, I have the luxury this month to dedicate as many hours a day as I want to test prep, and this is my only focus for the next 30 days. I'm taking some time off work, and I've already finished my undergraduate year 4 fall semester.

    I am familiar with all of the core curriculum on 7sage, and have read the PowerScore books as well. I would say my weakest section is reading comprehension. Sometimes I can get a -3 or -4 on the section, other times I get a -9 or -10 and I can't figure out why. I average about -4 on LR and -0 to -4 on LG. Because of the inconsistencies on my practice tests, I am looking for any tips on how I can achieve my goal, and be brutal! I am willing to do whatever it takes.

    I guess I really struggle with RC because I find it so boring, lol (i know, who doesn't). I also have a tendency to overestimate how well I have done, and when I get a score back that is lower than what I wanted, I feel like my confidence gets shaken. I am already aware that I have to really spend the time doing BR and not get frustrated, but I guess I'm looking for some concrete methods than you guys can recommend to me!

    I'm in the early stages of studying for the LSAT, and am planning to sit for the Aug 2024 test, to apply to schools for the F25 semester. I am struggling to understand how law schools will evaluate me, and how I'm supposed to report my GPA, because I went to an undergrad where I didn't receive grades. Instead of grades, for every course, I received a narrative evaluation detailing my class participation, the subjects I wrote papers on, my performance on those papers, and my strengths and weaknesses in the class (for better or for worse). In general, I felt my college performance was good, but it's hard to evaluate because it's qualitative data.

    I took classes at other colleges in the area, and did receive 5 grades.

    Are law schools going to calculate a GPA based off these 5 grades? Does anyone have experience with this topic? Does anyone have any suggestions insofar as who I could reach out to at LSAC or otherwise for answers?

    I've been studying this site for over a year and I consistently get only half right on LR. There is no specific question type that I have an issue with but it's all up and down the board. Each test is a new group of question types wrong, so right when I think I have something mastered I don't. What can I do to get about 18 right instead of 12 right consistently?

    RC Tips

    Hey! I am taking the January LSAT and I have been struggling with RC. When I do untimed passages, regardless of difficulty (whether its 1 or 5) I will usually miss like 2-3 questions on like 6 or 7 passages, but when I do a timed section ill miss anywhere from 6 to 9. If anyone is willing to share any tips or tricks they use for RC I would truly appreciate it. I am trying to bring down my RC to around a -4. If you're struggling with LG, I have gotten that down to a consistent -0 and I'll be able to share some tips as well. Please let me know, thank you!

    Hi! I know that there are currently only LSAT tests in the beginning of 2024. But does anyone know if they will administer tests during the fall. August and etc.

    I scored 155 in October on the Official LSAT, never scored higher than 156 on PTs prior. I have only been on 7sage for 3 weeks, since I decided to test again. I watch the videos while I crochet, it's that simple, and I have gained so much understanding about the LSAT compared to before subscribing. It's truly insane. I am taking the LSAT again in January, and I am so excited/amazed to have broke 170s this morning, with a 171PT. Can't stop, won't stop, til January LSAT! Thank you 7Sage!

    I can't load the question table section under the lsat analytics page. Whenever I attempt to do so, I'm getting a Wordpress error message that says '504 Gateway Time-out'.

    I had requested help under the live chat, where I was told to try deleting the cache or switching to a different browser. I have tried both options and it didn't work. I've also tried using other devices, including the 7sage app, but I'm getting the same issue.

    Hi. i just love to think of the worst for fun lol (sos) but i take my first lsat in january, i think i'll have a decent score. i'm really just aiming for like a 155-157. but let's just say i don't get that score, would law schools look at a second, even 3rd attempt in a bad light? thanks.

    I have probably taken 5 practice test up to this point after having finished the curriculum and I am starting to feel defeated. My first test I scored a 162 and BRed to get a 169, which I was very happy with. Since that test, my average has been a 156 and I don’t know what happened. I feel confident when answering and then get my score and feel like I know nothing. Is this a normal thing when beginning prep tests? I have four months left of studying, so I am trying to gain advice from others!

    Hi everyone,

    I've waited so long to post this. Never give up, there is always hope.

    TLDR;

    Graduated Undergrad in 2016 - 2.49 GPA.

    Got introduced to LAW from a friend and as I did research I fell in love with the field.

    Started Studying for LSAT in Sept 2018

    1st test - Jan 2019 - 137

    2nd test - July 2019 - 145

    3rd test - June 2023 - 152

    LSAC GPA 2.35

    I decided it was time to apply because I knew I couldn't do better then 152, plus I did not have the money to pay for a tutor and I'm 31, so I don't have time to keep studying. I got a family to take care of.

    I submitted my applications on Sept 1st.

    I got my first Acceptance to a part time program in October with a 50% Merit Scholarship. Ranked 100+ Law school with a pretty decent bar pass rate.

    I got denied by the worst law school in the United States - Cooley (Honestly, this was the school I was hoping to get into if no other school accepted me, it was my final option, even if the school is terrible)

    I got waitlisted to a law school that is ranked in top 100.

    Waiting to hear back from 2 more law schools.

    Main point - NEVER GIVE UP. I have worked so hard to reach this point. Look at my stats.... I got into LAW SCHOOL with a Merit Scholarship.

    I got denied by the worst law school and that is totally fine because another school saw my potential.

    Please don't doubt yourselves. Keep working hard and everything will fall into place.

    BEST OF LUCK TO EVERYONE!

    For people who are preparing the LSAT and plan to take it after August 2024, that the original LG section will be replaced by an additional LR section, how is everybody utilizing the PTs? Since the PTs are past exams, they include the LG section. But LG will not exist in the exam anymore starting August next year. But if we simply skip the LG section when doing the PTs, our scoring will not be an accurate reference. What are people doing to overcome this?

    Hi, I've been studying for the LSAT since 5 months and I've recently broken into 150s. I always miss a game in LG, almost a whole passage in RC and 2-3 questions in LR, which is why I score much higher in my BR. I want to work on my timing and break into 160s by the Jan exam. Any advice/tips? #help!!

    Can someone help me with the word "only." It is a word that is giving me so many headaches when trying to do conditionals. I seem to be having trouble when only is mixed with "will"

    I am doing the skill builders on this lesson - https://classic.7sage.com/lesson/skill-builder-kick-it-up-to-the-domain/

    I am having trouble with question #12:

    High school teachers who teach AP courses will only tutor students they believe to be in danger of failing and they believe that only students who missed Monday’s class are in danger of failing.

    From previous classes, we have learned that "only" is a necessary conditional indicator. But when it comes to statements above, I seem to get confused. In cases like these, does only modify the "second action"

    I will only go to class on Mondays and Wednesdays.

    Tim will only write the exam when he is ready

    I will only make eggs if they are fresh

    Would this be the same as:

    I will go to class only on Mondays and Wednesdays

    Tim will write the exam only when he is ready

    I will make eggs only if they are fresh

    Hey! I didn't get diagnosed with ADHD until my final semester of my undergrad. I graduated with a 3.1 GPA and was wondering if I should write an addendum explaining my diagnosis? My first semester GPA was a 3.0 (took all 100 level classes), second semester GPA 2.6, summer semester GPA 2.8, third semester GPA 2.3, fourth semester GPA 2.7, summer semester GPA 3.1, fifth semester GPA 3.0, sixth semester GPA 3.7, seventh semester GPA 3.6. I also changed my major after my second semester.

    I wanted to share an observation and concern that has arisen for me while working through the Core Curriculum Version 2, specifically about the Drill Generator. I'm about 70% complete with the LR section of the Core Curriculum V2. I started after V2 was launched so its my only point of reference for studying with 7Sage. I have, for the most part, generated a drill at the end of each section as outlined in the Core Curriculum to test my understanding of each topic.

    After looking at the 'Show Existing Drills' tab of the Drills page, I noticed the drills generated while going through CC have been pulling questions from PTs as high as PT 76. The only way I see to restrict what tests are pulled from is found in the Drills section of the website; I do not see a way to restrict what PTs the Drill Generator pulls from when the Drill is generated in the Core Curriculum part of the site.

    My most basic question is what tests should be pristine coming out of the Core Curriculum? I realized today I don't know the answer to this question. Ultimately, it is not that many questions that have been generated off of these tests, but my observation is that it is not intuitive that the drills at the end of each Core Curriculum section are pulling from a large number of tests. By default, the drills in the CCV2 diminish the number of pristine tests available when we complete the curriculum, which seems to be in opposition to major tenet of proper LSAT prep.

    Short version - What tests are we supposed to keep pristine while in/coming out of CC? Do you use the drills feature in the CC on the first pass or start drilling after finishing? Is it set up different in V1?

    Thanks!

    I finished PT 77 yesterday and left my screen on the Blind Review section for the night. After I refreshed the website again this morning, all of my progress was lost and the website is starting me again on section 1. Is there anything I can do to get my previous progress/attempt back?

    I'm having a lot of trouble understanding the stimulus's support for [A] being the correct weaken answer.

    I eliminated it because the skeptics never said that it was just the bottom layer that was contaminated; they just say "the samples were contaminated" so I thought that they were referring to the entire collection, which would include the upper layer. The skeptics never differentiated between the uppermost and lower samples for their hypothesis, so AC [A] doesn't seem to weaken their hypothesis at all.

    How can I infer that they're excluding the uppermost samples in their hypothesis? Is it because the stimulus says that the uppermost samples are dated to the present and therefore couldn't have been contaminated by the old carbon?
