Hi ! I'm aiming for April or June LSAT (I'm outside US)

I'm currently taking 4-5 PTs every week, and I'm done with the fundamentals.( But I'm still referring to basic materials to build stronger foundation)

Is 4-5 PTs a week too much or moderate?

The reason why I'm taking 4-5 is not because I'm too tired, but I want to take enough time to review, and also don't want to get score back bay by day since I'm not around 170 for now.

Also, I'm taking 1-20 PTs as half PT on days I don't take a full pt. ( Some pts over 20 also doing this)

Saving PT seems important since I counted remaining ones and I think I definitely need to save since I'll probably take the one after summer. Is half pt efficient?

Any advice is welcomed, besides those questions but things in general about pt schedule:)

Hello guys,

I have been doing some drill sets for logical games and I have been taking my time to work through them. Sometimes I do 100% more time and I do really well. I was wondering if you guys recommend taking your time or timing yourself to see how well you can do. I feel like I take way too long and am wondering when I should progress to the timed ones.

    For example, for PT5 S2 Q17, JY solves the question by referencing from his past game boards from past questions to eliminate a majority of the ACs.

    Does everyone "save" their game boards like JY does? If so, how do you go about drawing each of them out under limited time? Do you just scribble relevant figures in similar positions without making a full board?

    So far, I have been making master game boards using pen and erasing memos written in pencil before moving onto the next question.

    I'm curious because I feel like using JY's technique might be a game changer for me. Thank you.

    Hi everyone,

    On Thursday, March 3, at 12:00 PM ET, we'll check back in with former 7Sager @"Accounts Playable", who went to HLS, and see how he's faring as a first-year associate . We'll ask him how he got the job, how practicing law differs from law school, and what advice he can give people hoping to land in big law.

    You’ll get a chance to ask your questions at the end.

    I am having a hard time working under the time given in the exam as well as focusing on the questions. I feel as if my score is only low because I am leaving a lot blank. Can anyone advise me on how I can focus and read faster?

    Any tips please assist me, I know I can do better than the grade I am receiving.

    I'm looking for an affordable LSAT tutor I can meet with at least twice a week. We will mainly work on RC and LR. If you are a tutor, feel free to private message me and we will go from there. Thank you!

    Is there a limit to how well you can do? I've been at this for over a year and a half now, worked with multiple tutors and put my all into it, but I just can't improve into the 170's. I honestly am just at a loss right now and about to take the March test. I've been missing the same number of questions for the past 6 months despite changing strategies, learning new strategies, etc. I just am feeling very hopeless. My LSAT score will probably be the factor that holds me back from getting into the schools I want. I went to a top 5 school, did extremely well, and have a great resume, but I can't crack the LSAT no matter how hard I try.

    I live in Phoenix. Studied full time from August 2020 to May 2021. Took 3 LSATs from January 2021 to August 2021 165-161-158 respectively. Haven't touched LSAT review material since August 2021. Averaged mid 160s in the two months prior to my August LSAT. Looking for a tutor that averages a 172 or above that can help me score in that range by August.

    This is my first time studying since August of 2021. I studied full time from August 2020 to April 2021 and part time until August 2021. Took 3 LSATs and had a score regression 165-161-158. At this point I've used most of the LSAT material available. Redoing the questions I worked on the longest time ago. Right now my strategy is to focus on why the wrong answers are wrong instead of searching for the right answer, especially when I think I remember the answer to a question. Any advice on other strategies that would help someone who has exhausted the practice tests and questions?

    Hi everyone! I hope you are having an amazing day!!

    My name is Britt, and I am a tutor here at 7Sage. I am extremely passionate about mental health and mindfulness. On Thursday, March 17, at 9:00 PM ET, the 7Sage Tutoring Team and I will host a webinar about "Combating Test Anxiety." You can register for the webinar here:

    https://us02web.zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_CPFna0UGTxWom4TGT8Orrw

    However, I would love to hear some lingering concerns from you all. That is, I would love for you all to comment things you would like me to discuss in the webinar or comment any questions you may have.

    I am hoping that this Webinar can shed some light on how capable you all are of defeating this test and provide you all with some tips on anxiety/focus.

    Best,

    Britt

    I am a mid 160s scorer with my best score being a 170. I am trying to consistently enter the 170s but my RC is always the most subject to variation it would seem. I have LR and LG down to almost mastery, but every time I do RC I vary from minus 2 to minus 10 and it is deeply frustrating at times. My question to you is how did you improve the best in RC and how did you obtain more consistent scores? I always feel like I get lost trying to find information in the passage, especially with the time constraint. Good pacing strategies also help.

    What is PTA?

    Hi all! I noticed that in the Problem Set section, under Logic Games Core Curriculum, some games are labeled as PTA. What does that mean? Thanks!

    Please do not reply "interested." If you are interested, add me as a study buddy via 7Sage and/or send a direct message. I am looking only for folks who are already scoring between 166-169 and looking to break into 170+. I am capping this group at 5 people, including myself, to ensure efficient BR. I am looking to BR each Sunday from now until the June exam, so you must be available then (exact time is flexible).
