When is 7sage going to integrate the 3 + 1 Format of the August 2021 and beyond to the testing software? I think it would really advantage students for real test scenario?

I'm fairly good at LSAT and can pretty much -0 my way in any section on a good day. The moment the timer goes on, it can drop to as low as -11. I've been at this for 10 months; full-time devotion and looking back, I feel grossly disappointed in myself. This was the first time I really took a chance on myself; committed 100% to something. Yet, my score doesn't improve. I'm running out of PTs. I haven't had a good sleep since I started about a year ago {because that's how bad I want it }and now I feel like it's slipping out of my hands. How do you decide, "I'll just settle with what I have and take the test?" I'm not too sure because the timed sections aren't representative of my potential-but the reality is that it's a timed exam with added test day pressure.

Hi! This is mainly a question out of curiosity: Are there multiple different versions of the test each month? Like, will some people taking the June LSAT get a more difficult RC while others have a harder LG section, etc.?

Question: what can we conclude "virtually" to mean in this context? Can I conclude that there is at least one proposal that the so-called environmental group did not raise objections to? What is the opposite in LSAT world to "virtually?"

Admin Note: Deleted the stimulus because it is against our Forum Rules to post the entire stimulus on the Forum. Also edited the title. Please use the format PT#.S#.Q# - brief description of question.

So... past two weeks got into the high 160s, Last PT hit a high of 172.

LR was once my strongest section, I’ve honed LR and RC to be more reliable and better scoring now however.

I’ve noticed some patterns reviewing recent LR Sections for me. The main being that I always seem to get incredibly stuck and destroyed by one of the easiest questions on the test according to the curve. I’ll get anywhere between -1 to -5 very variable. But invariably among the misses will be one of these questions.

I’ll find a few behaviors/patterns on these questions. They tend to be early, within the first 12 questions, as early as the 2nd or 3rd. It usually tends to be between two answer choices (usually one is the right one too). I end up spending too much time, crossing out all the other answers, flagging it and moving on to keep pace. On my 2nd round I return to it, then come back and still feel unsure about BR. Then when I get to the explanation JY kinda explains that the other answer choice is obviously bad and just scratches it out (lol I get it its a lot of answer choices on the test, but I’m dumb and dont get it, pls help me).

I can’t seem to find a rhyme or reason, they’re different question types etc. What could I be missing? Just more study?

For those curious, here’s a couple examples of the questions I’m talking about missing.

Hi,

I have an lsac prep plus account which I bought with this 7sage account. However, I created another 7sage account when i forgot the password to this account. I am getting red boxes on the new account that "your account must be linked to an active LSAC LSAT Prep Plus account to access licensed materials. Link your account to continue your access".

Since I still have a subscription to the LSAC LSAT Prep Plus with my old 7sage account, I do not want to buy a new one with my new 7sage account. Is there anyway to resolve this discrepancy?

Hi y'all, I've been seeing a tutor on a weekly basis for the last few weeks, and while it has been beneficial to work through difficult questions with someone, I don't know if it's "worth it". Typically my tutor and I go through questions that I missed in my most recent PT but I'm wondering if there are better ways to utilize that time.

What do you all do during tutoring sessions? Is there something that you found more useful than reviewing missed questions?

Hey y'all,

I'm wondering if any of you have tips or strategies on how to manage test anxiety while taking the test. I feel like as soon as I realize that my pace is too slow on a certain section, my heart rate goes up, I don't think as clearly, and that's all she wrote. TYIA 🙌🏻

I've been studying for the LSAT on-and-off for over two years now. I work full-time, and by the time I get home I am already too emotionally and mentally checked out to actually focus on studying. I have not taken a prep test since February because after receiving my January score back, I decided I needed to approach the LSAT differently. I decided to hold off on applying for another year, so I am really hoping to apply for Fall 2022. I feel pretty stuck right now. I have been thinking about quitting my full-time job to study full-time. For those that have and/or currently working full-time and still managing to find the mental and emotional capacity to study, what does your schedule and/or strategy look like?

For context, I am a social worker with CPS so you can imagine how much that can impact my mental state after a full-day of work. My typical day looks as given: 6am-get ready for work, 7am-drive an hour to work, 8am-5pm-work, 5pm drive back an hour home, 6:30-7:30 gym. Can I study before and/or after work? Sure, but my day doesn't always run on the same schedule since the job itself can hold me after regular work hours, thus shifting my entire schedule. Can I just find a new job that doesn't cause so much stress? Yes, but I'd have to go through all the orientation/trainings etc only to stay for less than a year (assuming I get accepted in FA2022). Asking for advice before making a final decision on either staying or leaving my job to study. Thanks!

Hello.

As many, feeling incredibly discouraged and stressed leading up to the June 2021 LSAT test in just a week and a half. I am frustrated because two months ago I was able to break 170, but since then my score has dropped. My last three practice tests have been a 165 (Prep Test 84), 167 (85), and a 166 (86). My blind reviews are typically higher than 170 (although my last one was 168 - just not my best test). I am planning on really buckling down and taking multiple practice tests/problems in the week and a half, but wondering if I will need to set my expectations lower on what I'm likely to get on the actual test. I'm hoping to get at least a 168, but not even sure if I'm going to hit that at this point.

At this point I am not going to reschedule (plus I would have to almost restart studying because I am used to the three sections) so just looking for either encouragement or the need to lower my expectations.

Thanks!

I was wondering if anyone had any advice for what I am currently experiencing while I practice test. No matter what, I am consistently getting the same number of questions wrong per section (-5 to -7 LR, -6 to -9 RC, -0 to -2 LG, averaging a 165 test score) no matter the type of question or passage. Consistently, the questions I'm getting wrong are the hardest questions marked by 7sage. Does anyone have any advice for how to do better on the hardest questions?

I was scoring 163-165ish average and dipped down to 158 on my last PT, with a gross -10 on LR. It's frustrating to miss questions out of the first ten for stupid reasons.

I also miss -2 to -0 on LG whenever I retake old sections, but I just cannot seem to get my head together during the actual PT and I end up missing -5+!

My only consistent section is RC where I miss -6 or less. I know I can breach that 165-170 plane if I can just execute LG better on the test, and not make stupid mistakes on the LR.

I've been working in court full time and recently moved into a new apartment.

I've had times when I had to work past normal working hours. Things are getting taxing for me since we started to get back to working in-person more now.

So far I've taken the LSAT twice.

My first time I managed to cancel my score on July 2019 and I scored a 155 on October 2019.

I've signed up for LSAT Flex for June. I feel like I'm somewhere in the low 160s but can reach high 160s maybe with some time. I plan this year to be the year I sign up for law school.

Should I just reschedule to October? What do you think?

Do you guys have any recommendation for who to reach out to for help on RC? Tutors that helped you get better and even master it?

Hi! I’m registered for the June flex and got the email that registrations would open on Thursday 6/3 at 12 eastern. Am I able to make a ProctorU account before then just to make sure the process runs smoothly? I tried to make one and chose LSAC as the institution but it didn’t let me make an account. Thanks!

Hey all, this is my first time posting on this forum because I have no idea where to go from here so any tips, strategies, hugs, cry sessions, heck I'll even pay for a reading comp tutor if I need to because I've worked too hard for reading comp to be my downfall :(. A little background, I noticed the later I got into the PTs (70s +) the worse I am doing on RC, I just took PT 88 and i got -4 on LR , -1on LG and -10 ON READING COMP. I feel like im looking waaaaay to deep into the questions and it's really making me doubt taking the June test since its literally in 15 days. So yeah that's my situation, please help ya girl :(((((((

Is taking the August 2021 LSAT too late to apply for the fall 2022 cycle? I know most applications open in September, but if I take the LSAT in August and maybe want to take it in October for a second time, will I have to wait to submit my applications until the second October score is released? Will doing that put me at a disadvantage in terms of applying as early as possible?

Hey 7sagers,

With the writing portion of the exam opening in 2 days, I was wondering if any of y'all have any recommendations or advice about how to best prepare for it. The only resource I have is the powerscore article but I really do not feel like it is enough. Any other resources or advice on how to prepare for it?

I originally was going to take the October LSAT, however, I am considering taking the August LSAT because yesterday I took a PT and got a 163 and today I took one and got a 167. My goal score is 172. Basically, my question is do I have enough time between now and August to get my score up to a 172? Any advice would be helpful.

So I'm trying to sign up for a ProctorU account from a non-U.S. institution, and my institution isn't listed. What do you do in this case? I've sent an email to LSAC but I was wondering if anyone here knows. Thanks!

Hi all, RC timing is killing my score for that section. I average about one/two question(s) wrong per passage (overall roughly -6), but end up running out of time and missing the last passage completely (ending up missing anywhere from -12 to -15). I'm taking the June LSAT next week so I get the work to close this will be challenging. Also background, living with ADHD I have some processing challenges so naturally I'm a slower reader to HOPEFULLY not have to read the passages 3 times over. I think what's really getting me is that I'm getting too far in the weeds with note taking which is also a time suck. I don't know - any and all advice is appreciated.

Quick Context: I’ve been working through the core curriculum for about four months and had originally planned to take the August LSAT. However, since I’ve been “stuck” on LG (my weakest section) for about 3-4 weeks and haven’t even really dived into learning about RC, I think I’m going to have to postpone.

Current problem: I’ve been fool-proofing ordering logic games (all those from PT 1-35) for about three weeks straight and am feeling very discouraged as it seems I have not made any real improvement in my ability to tackle “new” ordering games. For instance, when attempting a simple sequencing logic game for the first time, I either take forever (often 3x as long as the target time) in order to get a high rate of questions right OR I rush through and get a lot of questions wrong because I’ve made stupid mistakes (in reading and/or diagramming). And with some, I take too much time and STILL get the majority of questions wrong. Should I take a break from LG and skip to RC? I’m honestly at a loss as to what my next step should be since I really have faithfully completed the fool-proof method—even Pacifico’s famous version of it—for all ordering logic games and a few in/out games from PT 1-35. I’ve heard that most ordering/sequencing games fall on the easier spectrum of logic games, so I’m not sure if it would be wise for me to move ahead with grouping games. Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

Looking for people to study with that are taking the LSAT closer towards the end of the year or beginning of 2022. Working through the core curriculum and I think it would be helpful to have an acocuntability partner/someone to bounce ideas off of. Please let me know if you are interested :)

I keep picking the sucker answer choice on the hard/harder questions for weakening questions. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I overcome my biases? It is very frustrating coming down to the right answer choice and the wrong answer choice everyone picks and then picking the wrong one. I will take any suggestions. #JuneLsat here we come
