When Should I Start Taking Practice Tests?

Hi all! I started 7sage with a study plan 4 days ago. I am currently working on the foundations theory unit. Does anyone know when or have recommendations for when I should start taking practice tests? I have seen mixed opinions on whether to wait until I am done with theory or not. Is there a point where 7sage will start telling me to take practice tests? Please let me know what you think, what you have done, and what you recommend. Thank you!

Loophole Flaw Questions

It seems to me that this question type in particular does not have much of a pattern as opposed to the classic flaws, which imo are easier to identify given their patterns.

For those who have no issues with the LF questions, how are you finding the patterns?

What are you looking for in the stimulus particularly given that every stim is kinda diff?

Thanks in advance!

I just switched to the new 7Sage yesterday. I noticed that I can no longer select the quick view feature for a question that would allow me to drag the image of the question to my desktop or to another tab. Up until now, I have been opening those and quickly dragging them to my wrong answer journal or to a word document for printing.

I would really appreciate if this feature was brought back and believe other students would benefit from this as well.

hi everyone, i’m an international student from india currently finishing undergrad and planning to apply for a US JD for fall 2027. i’ve recently started my LSAT preparation and would really appreciate some guidance on whether my timeline and overall approach make sense.

my current plan is to take the LSAT in april 2026 and again in june 2026 if needed. i’ve bought the powerscore bibles and just started using 7sage, and i’m trying to figure out the best way to structure my prep between those two resources from now until april.

a few things i’d really appreciate insight on:

  1. how should i divide my time between the powerscore bibles and the 7sage curriculum?

  2. if april doesn’t go as planned, is june a realistic backup for reaching my target score?

  3. as an international applicant, what should my overall application timeline look like for fall 2027?

  4. i’m also quite anxious about visa and post-JD employment issues in the US. recently a study abroad agency here told me that even strong candidates often struggle with visas for law school, which was pretty discouraging. how much should these concerns realistically factor into my school list and application strategy at this stage?

  5. finally, in your honest opinion, is pursuing a US JD as an international student in the current climate actually worth the risk, or am i being unrealistic about the return on this investment of time and money?

i’d be especially grateful to hear from other international students who have gone through this process.

thank you so much for any advice.

I scored a 150 on my diagnostic in July, and since then, I’ve gradually improved to the 156–158 range. I’ve taken 12 full practice tests so far. One consistent issue is that I keep missing the same types of high-difficulty questions, especially Logical Reasoning questions in the final 10 of each section. What’s frustrating is that during Blind Review, I’m able to fix most of these mistakes. When I drill these specific question types, I see real improvement, but I struggle to apply what I’ve learned under timed conditions. That disconnect has been pretty discouraging. At the same time, I do feel like I’ve been learning a lot overall through drilling, maintaining a wrong-answer journal, and working regularly with my 7Sage tutor. I’ve been studying 1–2 hours a day, about five days a week, since September, and I think I expected to be closer to my goal score of 170 by now.

With only a few weeks left before the exam, I’d love advice on how to use this final stretch most effectively. I’m probably going to retake the test in February 2026 (just being realistic). Thanks in advance for any recommendations!

Hi everyone, I just found out that LSAC has plans to gradually remove the logic games section from the LSAT supposedly through 2023. Was just wondering if anyone knows whether this next testing cycle is going to contain the logic games section...

Taking February LSAT

So I've taken the LSAT once before, and the law school I applied to made a no decision on my application, saying everything looks good, I should just bump my LSAT up a few points. I haven't done anything LSAT-related since April 2025. Do I go through the whole study plan since I have such a short time, or do I just focus on drills and practice questions?

Hi I recently took a drill and during review in one of the explanations I saw a live video where a student was taking a full PT. I though it was super helpful.

Are there any more of these videos on 7sage?

drills vs practice tests

is it just me that does so well on drills but sees very little improvements on practice lsats?

almost on every drill that i do, i only get 1-2 wrong, or even get everything right, but when i take a practice lsat, i miss a lot more. i'm just wondering if anyone else is having the same problems, and what you did to improve.

💪 Motivated

I've done a diagnostic, now what?

I just took PREP Test 140. Scoring roughly -7 on the LR and -8 on the RC. What should I do now? Do I just start the core curriculum? Do I do drills? Any help would be greatly appreciated. I also plan to take it in April!

Ask a Tutor Answers

I would like to request that the "Ask a Tutor" option have the answer from the tutor living within that question. I know that they email us their response, but my inbox is easily flooded, and it would be easier to reference the answer and look at the question when it's saved within that exact question. The feature could be similar to how the "notes" option shows us any notes we add for a question.

Please consider adding this; it would be very helpful!

(It's possible this is doable, and I just cannot figure out how to do it).

After finishing a prep test, it seems you can either review the whole test or filter and look at specific questions. When you click into that question, and then go back, you lose the filter criteria. It would be nice if these two were combined and you could review a batch based on filter criteria.

My specific use case is: looking at questions where I consumed much more than the target amount of time. Most of this platform seems to be geared towards correct vs. incorrect. In my opinion, this is only part of the puzzle. Questions you get correct, but that take up a disproportionate amount of your exam time, are also worthy of review.

Hi, all! Is anyone in Northern California (or just the Pacific Time Zone) down to be accountability partners? Or to form a virtual group via Zoom? Don’t know about you, but I work best when I know there are other people expecting me to produce some results. :D

Hi! I'm currently based in SF, studying for the February LSAT. Aiming for 172+, but pretty early in my study journey. If anyone is looking for a study group/accountability partner in the SF area, lmk! Would love to study together (either virtually or meet-up).

Hi everyone,

Have you noticed if the RC passage times have some trend of number of question / passage time. There's usually 27 and maybe comp. is usually around 5 and law is 6 with science and huminites having the most? I'm just spitballing here. Anyone have any idea/ noticed any trends of what to expect?

Thanks

Timing- Especially for RC

Hello everyone!

I'm taking my first LSAT Jan 10th and have been studying for months, but I can't get a grasp on timing.

When I PT without time, I average a very high score compared to when I PT with time.

I have always had test anxiety, which has gone away with being in uni. Unfortunately, with the LSAT, it seems to have come back.

My mind does not let me truly understand and read even the simplest of phrases, which has me get easy questions wrong, and run out of time on my RC.

Not sure what to do... has anyone had this issue, and what did you do??

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I'm aiming for a 170 score and finding that my RC score will fluctuate from -0 to -4 / section and I'm trying to get that down/ or at least to something that is consistent

I'm wondering if anyone has had success in changing up the order of how they approach which passage first, second, third, fourth in RC

In LR the questions are automatically easy - hard (besides 18-25 which I usually do backwards once i hit 19)

For RC I've been doing humanities first, then law, then science, and then comparative - I can usually get all comparative right even if I only have 4-5 minutes, so I save it for last bc I know I can rush through it and still be able to guess right

What I've noticed though is I am scoring -2 or -3 on humanities passages even though I do in fact find those easier than law and science. I'm guessing that the reason is because I'm starting with it and I always do better as I go/ get into the zone/ and having easy --> hard in LR helps keep down the curve of error for me there (best LR section score so far: -1!!)

I'm wondering if people would suggest that I start with comparative and then humanities, then law then science? The problem is that I tried that yesterday and wound up not having enough time w science (prob bc I spent almost 7 minutes on comparative which is more than I usually give it -- and I needed those two minutes for science). I did get all the humanities right by doing it second (my order was: comp, humanities, law, science) but I feel like I sacrificed science points to get more humanities points.

I do think that having some strategy about the order in which I do passages could help and I'm curious if anyone has had similar thoughts/ experience could advise how it might be smarted to play around with this?

Thank you! Good luck studying!

RC blind review

I think this was mentioned sometime it passed, but I think a feature where we can postpone a blind review for a recently finished RC section for a later time would be very helpful, especially for people who feel burnt out after completing a PT. If this feature already exist, sorry for the inconvenience.
