Can someone please explain why A is correct? Here was my initial breakdown/reasoning for why I thought E was the right point of issue:

Stim: There were some footprints found.

Dr. T: These are obviously hominid footprints because they have some human characteristics.

Dr. R: No Dr. T, these are not obviously hominid footprints because if you're right, then these hominids would've walked in a really weird way that's unlikely

ACs:

A: Originally got rid of A because it seemed like they both acknowledged the significance of the evidence, just that they interpreted the "squarish heel and a big toe etc" evidence differently in terms of what it meant

B: Neither of them really touch on this - seems like they both agree this set of footprints is at least somewhat distinguishable

C: Gait? Isn't mentioned by either

D: Dr. R isn't saying that this isn't enough evidence to support T's conclusion, she's saying that the evidence doesn't support the conclusion

E: R mentions how weird it would be if the hominids walked "in an unexpected cross-stepping manner, by placing the left foot to the right of the right foot," which I assumed was just walking upright. Hence why I chose E

Hello friends!

Since joining the 7sage community a short while ago, I have been seeing the power score books mentioned a lot.

Are they necessary? Will I be at a disadvantage if I don't use them?

This is not my first time studying for the lsat. I have used other prep courses before and have also self studied with the LSAT trainer (which i loved). So, I'm just curious because since I have the ultimate+, I already have access to all lsat questions so I'm afraid to bother investing in the powerscore books if i don't really need them.

Study Plan

Hello 7Sage,

I enjoy the beta version of the study plan tool. Is there a way to have the study plan captured in the navigation path where you can easily click back to the study plan module you are on?

Ex: When I am in foundations (not in the study plan), I will click on the task and complete it. I can drive my cursor to the path and click on it and it will pick right back up where I left off.

If I do this through the study plan, the path directs to the core lessons sub-page and I can easily lose my place in the study plan because of this.

I essentially have to click on study plan at the top navigation panel and scroll down to where I last was in my study plan.

I hope this was descript enough for the team to understand.

Hi! I was wondering if 7sage was planning on adding, or if anyone knew other sources for, explanations for the older PTs that are suggested at the bottom, such as A, B, etc?

Further open to any thoughts and advice/suggestions for good study material for anyone else who has used the traditional PTs already (has everything at close to or at 0% fresh).

Thanks!

Hi, I need some advice on how to go about my application process. I have a 153 LSAT score on record, 3.39 GPA, and have taken it a few times before, each time improving my score (I canceled one score even tho it was 2 points higher than another b/c I felt it wasnt that big of a jump in scoring). I just took the Nov LSAT and idk how I feel about it... I was scoring high 150s and even low 160s on PTs, but felt terrible after my Nov exam. I think test anxiety killed me. I am expecting a worse score than a 153 but who knows, it could be higher.

I got my 153 back in June and applied to like 5 schools for the heck of it... Didn't get into any b/c it was so late in the cycle. Now I want to apply when my Nov scores come out (hopefully they are higher than my June 153), but if not, I can cancel and add that to my addendum. I need advice on what to do about my personal statement and addendum. I heard it is not good to reapply with the same stuff as last time. So I should be rewriting my personal statement and addendum? I thought my personal statement was kinda fire, so it sucks that I have to rewrite it, also not sure how I can change my addendum up that much, as it's just describing my reasoning for my poor scoring performance.

I see so many people on here asking for advice, but have LSAT scores and GPA much higher than mine and haven't applied yet, so am I cooked?

Louisville, KY Study Group

Hello! I'd like to start an in-person/virtual study group for those wanting to study, drill, read, and motivate one another. I'm not taking the LSAT until April 2026, but I do plan on taking it more than once next year. We can get a group text/chat going and then go from there! Best wishes to all and happy studying!

Main point: RC

Hello,

Ive been really struggling with the main point or main idea questions in RC, I consistently get the first question wrong and I was wondering if anyone had any insights or tips on how to overcome this. Thank you! :)

Hi everyone,

I submitted my LSAT Writing assignment on November 3rd, and on my LSAC portal it is marked as “Completed.” However, it still hasn’t been approved and is not showing as available for schools yet.

Today is already November 11th, so it’s been more than a week. I know LSAC sometimes takes longer to review the writing sample, but I’ve seen posts from people saying theirs got approved within 1–2 days. That’s making me a bit nervous.

If the status is “Completed,” do I still need to worry? Has anyone else had a long delay between “Completed” and “Approved”?

Thanks!

Miami Moms?

Very niche, I know. I’m hoping to leverage the duality of a play date/ study group. Could be disastrous or work out beautifully. There’s only one way to find out.

Hi everyone, I need a push of encouragement. I attended a calbar school fall of 2023 and was academically dismissed. I took some time off then realized at some point this year I do want to return to a new law school in fall of 2026. I began studying for the LSAT again in July of this year. I feel that I am regressing in my studying simply because I am feeling discouraged. My PT scores have steadily dropped and so has my confidence. I am feeling that all of my effort will not result in a positive result for me. I am scheduled to take the November LSAT this week, at this point I do not want to withdraw as I feel that I will regret not taking it. This will be my third attempt with my first 2 terrible attempts being in 2022.

This last few weeks my constant failure on PT's and drills has me feeling that I am indeed NOT cut out for law school nor to be an attorney. If anyone is/has been in the same boat would love to hear your thoughts/journey.

Head of Product
Eager

We're hiring a designer!

Hey 7Sagers, we're looking for a new designer who understands the LSAT—maybe you! Full post below. Put questions in the comments. Thanks!

Location: fully remote

Hours: 20–30 hours per week with potential for full-time

Compensation: $50 to $150 per hour, based on experience

About the Role

We’re seeking a UI and UX designer to help us develop new features and flows for our LSAT Prep platform.  The work may involve iterating on current designs, taking a wireframe to high fidelity, or starting with a problem statement and delivering a complete solution.

You’ll be expected to

  • Learn about the LSAT study process so you have sufficient context

  • Explore the website so that you can plug your designs into the rest of the app’s functionality

  • Distill complicated problems into simple abstractions

  • Think on the level of both the big-picture UX and the nitty-gritty details of the UI

  • Communicate clearly and concisely

  • Deliver developer-friendly, well-documented Figma files that utilize auto-layouts and reusable components where appropriate.

About our workflow

You’ll do most of your work independently with regular consultations from the heads of product and design along with feedback from other stakeholders. We group our projects into epics, but we don’t do scrums or formal sprints. Much of our communication happens via screencast videos and chat, but you must be available for occasional remote meetings.

We are allergic to slides or anything that feels too ceremonious.

We value clarity, usability, and simplicity above pure aesthetics, and when given the choice, we’ll always pick a solution that gets us 80% of what we want at 20% of the effort.

About the process

Apply using this form.

Begin your cover with the phrase "Why I'm a good fit—".

If we’d like to move forward, we’ll schedule a screening interview and then ask you to do a paid trial project.

Edit practice blocks

I would love the ability to change what is automatically generated in practice blocks. I like the general guidelines and structure it creates but I'd like the ability to move stuff around and be able to "complete" a practice block and have it shown as complete for a week without necessarily doing a PT every single week like it has been suggesting for me. I'm also trying to focus more on RC, so I'd like to be able to add more practices into my RC days and have it show up in my X min left section for the tracker.

🙃 Confused

using analytics?

how do y'all use your analytics? I feel like there's so much data there that I'm not taking advantage of.

does the study plan basically do that for you? or should I be building in extra drills to specifically target my weaknesses?

are there any hidden details that you've found helpful?

should I be worried that my drilling accuracy hasn't budged (even though my pt scores have been going up)? or does that just mean the ~algorithm~ is assigning me harder drills?

grateful for any wisdom you guys share!

Hi everyone, I’d really appreciate some advice. I’m an international student, and I’ve been studying for the LSAT on and off for about two months. My diagnostic score was a 144. Since I haven’t been fully committed to studying yet, my score is still in the 140s, but my goal is to reach 170+ so that I can apply for Fall 2027.

My original plan was to study full-time until January. However, I recently received a full-time job offer from a friend, and I’m not sure whether I should accept it. The job is directly related to the human rights field I want to pursue in law school, so it would allow me to gain meaningful experience. But I’m worried that working full-time would interfere with my LSAT preparation and delay my timeline.

I’m really torn between the two options, and I would be grateful to hear your thoughts. Thank you!

How to bridge the gap from your PTs and BRs

I've been taking some Practice tests for a while, but when I do them, my LSAT scores are pretty low, around 150. However, my Blind Review scores has been improving up to 160-164 consistently. I can't seem to bridge the gap, and want to know how anyone else fixed that problem? When I do BR's I usually choose my second choice, which is always right, instead of taking more time to actually read the question I just click that one and move on, so I'm not sure if timing is the problem? I would also like to see how to choose my second choice on the real test first. If anyone has any tips, please let me know.

Hey there! I’m looking for a virtual study partner or small group. I’m currently scoring in the high 160s to low 170s, with LR being much stronger than RC, and I’m planning to take the exam in January and hope to get a 175+. I’d love to team up with someone at a similar level or aiming for it who’s looking for a study partner to bounce ideas off of and stay accountable with. I work full time on PT, so maybe someone who can meet in the evenings would be helpful but not required whatsoever.

We can bring each other questions or sections that gave us trouble, share them, and talk through our reasoning together. We can text to stay in touch and hop on Zoom occasionally to review tougher sections. My hope is that explaining concepts will help solidify them, and having someone to talk through tricky questions like I would a tutor would be a great resource.

If you’re interested, feel free to message me here! And if possible, please share a linkedin or some other proof so I can confirm you’re a real person :)

Thanks everyone and good luck!!!
