Hello! I just started the 7Sage course last week and was looking for people in Metro Vancouver to form a study group. I would be happy to meet in person or do an online group where we can talk about specific questions or sections that we need to work on. I find that teaching and learning from others is a great way to digest the insane amount of information we need to learn for the LSAT.

If anybody is interested, please let me know!

Hello,

I graduated in Fall of 2020 and been working at a law firm as a legal assistant. I already got one letter from the attorney that I work for personally, and I've also written a request to a professor. I haven't heard back yet from the professor and getting a bit nervy since I plan to finish applying by Dec 1.

I'm considering backup options -- either my second attorney who I've worked with for the past year with less workload, or a former paralegal that trained me and worked very closely with me daily (we could make the case that she was supervisory if needed) for 3 years before she moved to a different firm.

I'm confident that both people would be more than willing to write the letter, but I'm wondering which would be the better option. My feeling is that the paralegal knows me much better both professionally and personally than the second attorney.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks!

I am a non-traditional (old) student who is taking the LSAT for the 3rd time. (first- 158- was in 2009, second - 153- in October, and third will be in January - hoping for at least 162). After the October test, I signed up for 7sage and really like the curriculum so far. However, four hours a day is a lot for me, between kids and work. I was surprised when the study plan was formulated that it does not include any of the available drills, or recorded classes. How do those of you who work in addition to studying for the LSAT fit in any of the extra content? Should I prioritize any of it outside of the study plan? It looks like the study plan doesn't have a practice test until two weeks before the actual test. Should I fit one or two additional practice tests in as well? All input welcome. Thank you!

I've put putting in the work for about two months and seen great improvement. My initial diagnostic score was a 145 and I was able to increase that to a 154 on the October LSAT. My logical reasoning sections tend to be very hit or miss. Example: I just took a full LSAT today and on the first section I made it through all but one problem and scored 20/25. On the second LR section I made it through the same number of problems and got a 13/27 which is much lower than my normal. I usally score about 17/18 correct every section.

I am wondering if anyone has any advice for narrowing the gap between my good sections and my really bad ones. I've reviewed and cannot determine why I did so well on one and not the other. I'm taking the LSAT again tomorrow and hoping to get a few points higher than I did in October. Any last minute tips would be appreciated!

For context, I've been studying for around a year, and for the past 6 months I have been averaging across manyyyyy PTs in the low to mid 170s. I've taken the actual exam now 3 times, but for the life of me, I cannot get past a 165. I don't have testing anxiety, and I feel great all the way up to the actual exam, but every time I take it I fall way short of the scores I usually earn. I decided to call it quits after this October's exam, and I've already submitted all my applications, most of which are to highly regarded schools with a median LSAT of 168 or higher. Having a 165 as my highest official score is very disappointing. Still, I've been operating under the assumption that, especially if you're under the median, you need to submit your applications as early as possible (while the remaining spots are not as competitive). However, a 165 is significantly limiting for the schools I'm aiming for, and so now I'm considering retesting again in January. My biggest concern, though, is that if I don't score better than 165 this time around, I won't only have finished empty-handed in scores but I'll also have lost any advantage I had by applying early, since schools would have to place a hold on my file. Are these fears/time penalties valid, or should I go for January? Help!

Hi! I am passionate about accessibility, and I have recognized through substitute teaching and being in the LSAT space how many people are excluded because they don't have the resources to meet their goals. I try to close that gap. I will have a few slots after the upcoming November exam. If you are interested, just open a chat with me here :) My rates are below.

$50/hr for individual sessions

$40/hr for bundles

If you have demonstrated financial need, we can be a bit more flexible, too.

As the title suggests, I notice that I do sections (individual portions of the tests), better than I do actually PT sections. Why is that? I notice that my timing is better and overall individual score per section is better when I do sections.

It is really nerve-wracking because of the November LSAT is coming up :(

I have extensive work experience that I’d like to feature in my resume for my applications. However, I understand that the ideal resume format for a fellowship or job might differ from the one used for a law school application. What are the key differences, and what should be included for applications?

Hi 7Sage!

I'll be taking my second LSAT this Friday, but I'm definitely planning on taking a third in January. I've been in the mid-160s since starting 7Sage in September, but my Blind Review scores are always somewhere in the high 160s/low 170s.

I'm usually stuck between two answers but always seem to pick the wrong one—I just completed a LR section where I got -7 on the first run-through and -0 during Blind Review.

Any advice on how to close the gap? Thanks!!

When doing a blind review, the eliminated/hidden answers in BR selection get overlapped onto the actual take. Example (I chose C in BR and hid it, A on actual take):

Does anyone have any insight or advice on whether or not its a good idea to cancel your score? My previous undergrad advisor said not to cancel your score unless you absolutely flopped the test. I took the October LSAT and had some personal matters come up unexpectedly the day before. I don't think I realized how much it would subconsciously affect me and my score went down two points from my previous score last fall cycle. Is that a reason to cancel my score or maybe just write about my circumstances in an addendum?

I'm taking the November LSAT and plan to do better on that one.

Hello, I am fairly new to studying for the LSAT and my plan is to take the first LSAT in June 2026. I am trying to get a 175, but I don't know how to approach the studying. According to the study plan I should spend the first 10 weeks or so on the core curriculum and then after start practicing/drilling. Is that what I should do? Or should I structure my studying in another way? For example, I do the core curriculum one day and then practice another day?

Hello everyone! I am planning on retaking the LSAT in February 2026. I am based in Phoenix, but if any AZ (or west coast in general) people want to create a study group, please respond to this message! I would be willing to creating a group chat (Facebook, Instagram, Gmail?) for anyone interested!

Is there a rule of thumb about when it's okay to consider common sense outside information and when it's not? For example, in PT132.S4.Q17, wrong answer choice (E) cites smoking as an explanation for cancer/heart disease even though the stimulus didn't mention smoking. However, in other questions (that I can't think of to link) answer choices with external information were written off. Would appreciate any insight, it's really starting to trip me up...

Does anyone have a sheet or google doc with the best tips and tricks to look over before going into test day? I have all my notes but it is a large accumulation of notes from months. Just looking to find a simple tips and tricks sheet. Thanks

Maybe I’m dumb but just took my first PT on lawhub (would’ve taken it on 7sage but I want the free test that comes with the Fee waiver so I have to take two PTs on lawhub) i imported it to 7sage but now I want to BR but don’t have the option to Br that test on 7sage… so I’m wondering what would be the best move now? Retake it self paced on lawhub? Retake that Pt entirely on 7sage and just exclude from analytics?

Any help is appreciated!

Also should I Br the entire test or only what I got wrong? Going from drills to having to Br a whole PT is stressful af

Sometimes when I'm reviewing, I think it'd be cool to try a question with a very similar structure to the question I just reviewed (e.g. a Sufficient Assumption question that has a ValJudge and LinkAssumption component), but it seems the only way to do that is to manually search for one in the drill creator?

One more LSAT question. Does anyone have advice for matching flaws or parallel reasoning or most similar to the argument type questions? Anything someone said that helped them click for you, or something that helps you get through them quicker? These are the ones I struggle with the most, particularly for pacing and speed.

I am writing the LSAT in November. I was on a pretty good trajectory until this week. I am drilling causal reasoning and getting most wrong. I do not know what is going on. I go on the lives for CR, and at the time seem to understand, and then I drill and I am still stuck. Any ideas? What the heck am I not getting - rhetorical question, Ha! Anyone feeling like this?
