I just the LSAT Flex for the first time, and I was really hoping my first write would go so well... it did not. There were several questions I did not have time to reach (which never happens) and now I have no clue what to expect as a score. Does anyone have any words or wisdom or comforting advice? I do not want to think about how I may have scored WAY below my average for the next three weeks.

Hey all,
Anyone willing to share their progress with the rest of the site! It's discouraging seeing minimal improvement after studying for so long and it would be nice to see how others have improved. Here's how I'm faring after 6 months of study. The last 10 tests have been about 163-164 on the dot and I'm afraid that I'm reaching a plateau. I just want to know those who've almost touched the sun, 170+s what their progression was like.
6 months ago: (Timed Diag) 152
3 months ago: (After core curriculum) 159 timed
today: average 164 (on PT 50)
I have tried linking my 7sage account to my lsac prep plus account and I am being told by my lsac account that "This coach is already assigned to this user". I don't get it and I don't understand why my LSAC prep plus account will not be linked to my 7sage account.
As someone who is by definition an overthinker, I wanted to give those who fall prey to the same way of thinking some encouragement.
Stop overthinking your studies.
Overthinking leads to analysis paralysis where you'll end up worrying/overanalyzing/overthinking your LSAT studies instead of actually doing them.
Get a plan, stick with it, and work hard. The rest will come to you.
While I take the June 2021 LSAT tomorrow, my LSAT journey is long from over. However, I thought it might be an appropriate time to thank 7Sage. Firstly, for the content and organized approach to studying for this demonic exam. Secondly, that they provide LSAT studiers with the opportunity to study this content at an incredibly reduced rate. As a person from an impoverished background who solely supports himself through undergrad, I cannot thank 7Sage enough. Studies show that tutoring, particularly for an exam like the LSAT, will increase your score significantly. This widens an already massive chasm that exists between poor and wealthy students -- and this is not to scorn the latter. 7Sage's core curriculum and JY's snarky remarks were the closest thing I could get to professional tutoring and I am extremely grateful!
Is anyone interested in studying for the LSAT with availability during the day? Let's hook up on Zoom
Hi everyone!
I've been working on the LG section and have been doing some of them multiple times. Whenever I redo them after watching the explanation videos my score improves. I have been wondering if redoing LG will distort view of how well I can master the LG section? Does it actually represent how good I am at logic games? I am just scared that the improving scores will give me a false sense of confidence.
Thank you for your help!
Hello!
I keep seeing a lot of comments of people who think that the priority section under results refers to whether the question itself is considered to be high or low priority in general. I thought I would make a post to clarify this, in case it helps anyone.
When it says a question is high priority it just means that it is high priority for you specifically. Meaning that you should review the video explanation because you got the question wrong before and after blind review or that you didn't blind review a question you got wrong which makes the system assume that you were 100 percent certain about your wrong answer.
So don't freak out! You are not getting high priority questions wrong. The priority tag gets assigned and tailored to you specifically AFTER your responses have been submitted. There is no standard set of high vs low priority questions.
I hope this is helpful to someone ✨

I started studying in March of this year using the Powerscore books and the Testing and Analytics membership.
I did all three Powerscore Bibles and their entire 3 month curriculum.
About a month before today's test, I realized I wasn't making "enough" progress. My goal is a low 160.
I joined 7Sage and tried to "Frankenstein" my approach to refine my weaknesses: doing PTs, analyzing my answers with the explanation videos.
I made some progress with explanation videos, after completing PT sections, but after today, it's clear I was not ready.
Where do I go from here? Private tutor? Do the 7Sage curriculum from scratch?
How do I regroup?
Dear members of the best metroplex in the US,
It's your boy lsat_sus. I'm happily swimming in the sea of the 160's and I'm tryna set up an in-person study group with folks in the DFW area. All I ask is that you've been through the CC at least one-time (it'll help ourselves help ourselves). Folks out in Garland, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Carrollton, Denton - y'know what I mean? Let's do this fam? UT Austin literally calling our names rn.
Hey everyone! I just selected a few weakening questions from PT1-35 so that i could solve them in the problem sets. However, after submitting it, i could view the right answers but there were no explanation videos. When i clicked on explanation, It led me to the discussion forum. Could you guys tell me how to go about it?
Hi 7Sage community,
I just finished taking the June LSAT Flex and came out of it completely blindsided with the level of difficulty and don't think I did well on it. I already have a canceled score back from 2019, when LSAT was doing the promotion to see your score and then cancel. Back then, I had not even studied and basically took the test as a diagnostic and cancelled my score. After this test, which I don't feel good about at all, I would like some insight on whether it would be better for me to cancel my score. But in doing so I will have two cancelled scored out of three tests taken, which I don't how badly will impact how I look to law schools Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
Best,
Ruchi
I spoke to a Dean of Admissions for law school. I didn't get in this year but she is pushing for me to withdraw my application. I am not sure why that's the case. Does anyone know? Should I just wait for a denial or withdraw my application? Thanks.
I am looking to retake a preptest that I took months ago and was wondering if there was a way to do this without deleting the past answers? Thanks!
Hey everyone, I'm taking the August 2021 LSAT and looking for a study buddy to review PTs and individual sections with. I currently work full-time so most of my studying during the week is early in the morning (around 7 a.m. ET) or in the evenings (after 6 p.m. ET) However, on Sundays and Mondays, I do PTs and study upwards of 6 hours.
Anyone in the D.C. area interested in creating some kind of study group for these next few weeks?
Hey Everyone, quick question!
What is the protocol when it comes to scratch paper during the flex? I vaguely remember reading somewhere that we're supposed to rip up/destroy our scratch paper on camera after the test? I'm wondering if this a mandatory written rule. I don't recall reading this on the flex instructions.
I just took my LSAT writing, and I didn't rip up the scratch paper on the camera. I'm hoping this doesn't get my test flagged.
Thanks!
How does one identify a great private tutor? What's a reasonable hourly fee?
I took a test on Lawhub, is there a way to transfer it to 7sage?
Is LSAT test taking skill acquired or innate?
Let's have a discussion.
Hi yall!
So I am taking the test in a few days and I just totally forgot how to I solved NA questions. (I know this sound so dumb and ridiculous) I can solve all other questions fine but I literally just freeze and can’t do anything whenever I see any NA type. I’m freaking out big time here.
If you have any way of solving/approaching NA, I’d really love to hear it. This literally feels like I have a short term memory loss. Please send help.
So I am taking the June LSAT but also expect to take as many as I have to in order to reach my goal. Diagnostic was a 154. I have been studying for a total of 10 months and I am current scoring low to mid 160s, lowest being a 161 and highest 167. My goal score is a 167-169 but a 170+ wouldn't hurt. I study 4-6 days a week for 4-6 hours. My worst section is RC and my best is LG. In RC I mainly missed them because I usually don't have enough time to properly read the last passage. And for LG I usually run out of time before I get to answer the last 2 question.
RC- Avg. -7 (Low:-2)
LR- Avg. -5 (Low: -4)
LG- Avg. -4 (Low:0)
Let me know if interested... Will be DMing

I take the flex on Sunday in 2 days. The last time I took a PT was on Wednesday and it was my highest score so far. Should I take another PT today or end on that good note and just do practice problems for my weak points?
For example, if my exam were scheduled at exactly 12 (if all goes according to plan) how long did check in take and how long was the process overall?
Trying to time when I should ask my family to not disturb me for! Thanks in advance!
