I am so bad at these. I am good at LR except for flaw and one other question type. I just can't figure it out. Sometimes I'll find a gap but it isn't the right one. Other times the answer choices are too subtle or I find multiple ones correct. Sometimes I don't see how the answer is really a flaw. I need a way to reframe these/think about them correctly.

Hi guys! I'm taking the June LSAT at the end of this week. I'm just posting to ask if anybody has any burnout-related info or advice.
For some context, I've been studying consistently for about two months now. I haven't really found myself struggling prior to this week. During the second week of May, I took two practice exams and scored a 161 and 162. During the third week of May, I took one practice exam with double time to focus on accuracy and scored a 166, which is my best so far.
Last week, I started working a full-time internship (five days a week, 9am-5pm, plus three hours of commuting because of traffic🥲). My score immediately decreased and I got two 156s. I've had a really hard time focusing on studying each night and I've been feeling somewhat more rushed with the time constraints than normal. I also have ADHD and testing anxiety so thats probably not helping this situation lol. Could this sudden score decrease be from work-related burnout, and has anybody else experienced anything similar? I was planning to take off work the day before my exam to recharge, but now I'm worried that won't be enough to reset my brain. I'm just not totally sure what to do here. Thank you and good luck to everyone testing this week!!
Dear everyone,
Just a quick question. If we have a A correlates with B and then a A causes B type of argument as a weakening stimulus, can we weaken the argument by showing that a new factor C causes B? or does the AC HAVE to touch on both A and B? I am getting super confused with this concept all of a sudden so any kind of help would be greatly greatly appreciated. Thank you.
This has been happening for a while now, which makes writing long and comprehensive comments a bit discouraging. I know I can write them in a notepad and paste them into the comments section, but it would be nice to be able to directly write in the comments.
By the way, I would suggest adding a "Bug" topic so that staff can easily go through all the posts bringing up bugs, which should have more priority over feature requests.
I haven't taken any of the PrepTests available on 7Sage yet. Yet, I only have 14 100% fresh ptests left. The rest are all 98% fresh or less. I understand 7Sage uses a bunch of tests for drills and sections, but the algorithm has been giving me questions even out of PrepTests that are explicitly listed as available to take as tests on 7Sage. I've only been using this site for under a month and again, have taken zero of the PrepTests available on 7sage. I'm honestly pretty upset that my preptest bank has been depleted to this level already. How can I preserve the only 14 fresh tests I still have?
According to the AI Coach’s analysis of my most recent PrepTests, there is no longer a specific question type pattern that can be found across my wrong answers — for the most part (and with the exception of an unusually bad test I took while distracted and sick), the questions I am getting wrong are the three to four level 4-5 questions on each test.
When I review those questions, I am generally able to understand both where I reasoned incorrectly and why the correct answer is correct, so I am not incapable of understanding them; however, I often make small mistakes parsing these questions and the possible answers when under time pressure. I think I could benefit from specifically drilling these harder questions to build both accuracy and speed in interpreting them.
Is there a way to drill by difficulty and not by question type?
Hi guys, I was thinking of taking the August LSAT and have been studying and got the content covered, was wondering if anyone would be intrested in being in a gc so that we could do practice tests once a week together? and hold each other accountable - I wasn't sure if there was a groupchat already made.. :)
Hi 7Sage community! I had a quick question about the new LSAT interface that has now been confirmed for adoption starting in August. I realized while practicing with the new interface on 7Sage that in RC, the new interface no longer highlights the portion of the text that the question stem refers to. This is especially confusing and time-consuming when questions ask us to identify multiple sentences (e.g., how does the second sentence of the first paragraph relate to the third and fourth sentences of the third paragraph?). Does anyone know whether the highlight feature will disappear on the official test as well? :/
Does anyone have an efficient way of studying the Logical Reasoning question stem? I was thinking of making flash cards but I am open to any other ideas. Thank you!
When would you guys advise to take the last exam before Friday? I took one yesterday, but I want to see if I can crank out one more this week. Do you think it might be too close to the exam to take an entire PT on Wednesday?
Suggestion for Live Class Question Pool Enhancement
I have noticed that in the live classes, we don't really solve questions from the newer PTs which are more representative of the current test. I think it would be an excellent idea to have live classes where the teachers go over the newer questions as well because I feel like there's a difference between questions from PT150+ vs PTs from like the 100-140 range. The older questions are more cookie cutter, less tricky, and have more obvious patterns whereas the questions from the newest PTs are more convoluted and harder to comprehend so I would love to see live classes where the teachers break down those questions for us as well.
Feel free to let me know if I'm missing something. Out of the many live classes I attended, I don't think I have ever seen the teachers give us a question from PT 150+ which is why I wanted to propose this idea. If the reason for not including those is because y'all don't want people who still haven't solved those PTs to be exposed to them via live classes, I get it. Maybe the class labels can say something like "Disclaimer: this class will contain questions from the newest PTs (150+)." I hope this makes sense!
Hi 7sage,
I’m looking to take on a few long-term students this summer for LSAT Tutoring!
About me: I’ve been tutoring the LSAT since August 2025, and am starting 1L this fall. I have a BA in Philosophy. I scored a 172, and I enjoy teaching this test.
My approach: I work with my students on how to approach each question and focus on practical strategies. This means we talk through each question together and discuss what you see, with the student taking the lead. I want to hear what YOU think is wrong with the argument, and your prediction on what the correct answer choice will look like. Formal diagramming is kept to a minimum. It becomes easier to spot flaws on the LSAT when you think of the test as a series of bad arguments. It is our job to attack the test.
Logistics: I offer a free consultation to discuss your goals and to see if we would work well together. I am very flexible in terms of scheduling and use a calendar booking site. I offer tutoring at $40/hour for 1 session, or a bundle of 4 sessions at $35/hour. All payments are made via Stripe.
To book: Drop a comment or private message me on 7sage, and I will send a booking link! Feel free to ask any questions as well 🫡
I took my first full length Practice test today and got a 160. My goal is 167-168 by the August LSAT. I was wondering if anyone else could share how much they improved in a 2 month window. Is it doable to get those 7-8 points in 2 months. I’m just curious about other people and their scores. Thank you.
Is anyone else doing the comprehensive study plan and feel like the LR section is overkill? I like all the drills but it feels sooo repetitive. But now when I try and switch the LR section to "balanced" it has my date of finishing tomorrow and I'm obviously not going to be able to catch up.
Right now with the comprehensive plan it has my "practice" section only lasting 3.5 weeks even though it says 5 weeks in the plan. I feel like thats not long enough.
I want to be taking more practice tests and running drills but its taking me forever to get through the LR question types because of this... so I don't know what to do. Please help lol.
I haven't studied since I last took the LSAT in Jan this year, and thus I am unsure if my analytics reflect my current understanding.
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
So I just took a practice test and I looked at my results just to see my score, I was planning on doing a blind review on missed questions but I can't find where to start a blind review, is it unavailable because I looked at my score or am I missing Something?
Hi! This June LSAT will be my first time taking the test. I am wondering what people recommend doing the week before the test? I have consistently been taking two full practice tests a week and drilling throughout the week. Currently, I am scoring where I would like to be.
For those who have taken it before or have more knowledge on this, what would you recommend doing to feel best on test day? I do not want to burn myself out before the test, but I definitely do not want to lose any progress I have made.
Any recommendations would be super appreciated!!
Hi all,
Any advice on how to get faster especially with RC, I find that I am getting the answers I can get through correct but I always run out of time right before the 4th passage. What has helped people? Also any advice for going faster in LR would also be appreciated!

Hello I made an lsat study group on groupme where we can help each other out , ask questions , give each support and tutor each other. This is good way to study for the lsat because we can learn from each other so we can get the best possible score . The more the merrier . This is a good and free way to receive extra help .
When you've studied for YEARS (on and off) and get sub-par, mediocre timed PT scores (153 being the highest) but blind review in the mid-high 160's-177?
Words can't even begin to describe how demoralizing and unmotivating this is...
Hi 7Sage people!
I am looking for a tutor to help me grasp some basic and not so basic concepts. (Geez, that's vague).
I have been self-studying since the end of April and my diagnostic was a 145. My goal is a 165 (am I being delusional?) I also have ADHD so someone who understands how to work with individuals who struggle with reading too fast :) I also work full-time during the week which can make my time limited. I would prefer weekend availability since it is more open but really anytime after 6pm EST works too.
Please help! I feel like an idiot LOL (I have an M.Ed. with a 3.93 GPA but still!)
Thank you and I wish my fellow studiers the best of luck.
Hey Everyone! I'm Max, a graduating senior at UCLA, and I'm excited to start working with students on the LSAT! I have over 3 years of experience coaching and tutoring competitive debate at a boutique prep company, and recently scored a 179 on the April LSAT after roughly a year of self-studying using 7Sage.
At the risk of shamelessly plugging the LSAC, I think this test is a genuinely elegant, well-designed exam, and I've really enjoyed becoming a bit of an LSAT nerd over the past year. There's an understandable but, in my opinion, misguided inclination to approach the LSAT as an exercise in pattern recognition (memorizing lists of flaws, inserting x or y word when you see a conditional, etc.). Pushing back against that inclination is a core tenet of my approach to tutoring. I want to help students embrace the fact that the LSAT is ultimately testing a very specific form of analytical thinking that tends to feel pretty foreign but is highly consistent, systematically rule-governed, and, with enough time, can be intuitive. My tutoring will try to push you to think in this way naturally, and I strongly believe that improvement will follow from doing so.
During tutoring, I'm happy to either go over questions and content you prepare in advance, or create lesson plans based on data from your analytics and a curriculum "packet" I've built of questions I'm highly familiar with. Big picture strategizing about your studying timeline and establishing week-to-week structure through assigned homework can also be incorporated into tutoring.
I'd be excited to work with students of all ability levels, though I suspect my tutoring would be most helpful to those with a solid understanding of the test's fundamentals who are looking to optimize their LR sections and better understand harder, curvebreaker questions.
A note on pricing - my rate is currently $30/hr, and I hold the view that when you pay a high tutoring rate, what you should be paying for is experience and a proven track record with other students. While I think my past (non-LSAT) tutoring experience is valuable, I can't in good faith charge a high hourly rate while I'm new to LSAT tutoring. So, I see tutoring as a mutually beneficial arrangement - I can help you as a high-scoring tutor with past teaching experience for a heavily discounted price, and by helping you, I build up LSAT tutoring experience. If you're looking to take the test in August or next fall, this is a great opportunity to receive high-quality tutoring at a below-market rate.
If you're interested, feel free to leave a comment on this post and fill out this intake form. Once completed, you'll receive a calendly link to schedule a free consultation where we can chat further and determine whether tutoring would be a good fit for you. I'll also be opening a free study group which will meet every Friday at 4pm pst for an informal, office hours-style study session. You're also welcome to message me with questions about my services, specific problems, or really anything LSAT related - I'm always happy to chat!
Hello! Hope everyone is doing well. I just wanted to get insights on how to warm up before taking a timed PT. Do you guys do a RC passage or a couple of LR questions? If I go directly to the PT, I feel like I can't really "click" until the end of the 1st section.
Any recommendations are appreciated!
Happy studies 😊
Hi all! If I remember correctly, I thought there were summaries of all LR and RC question types, their prevalence, what to look for in right/wrong answers, etc. I can't seem to find them. Does anyone know where I might find these? Thank you and happy studying!
