hi! I am scheduled to take the test in August and October. I don't think I'm ready to take it in August, would I be able to cancel that test? I know I wouldn't get my money back, but I don't want to take it if I'm not ready. Or am I forced to take it in August?

Hey guys,

I'm going over the Sequencing Games w/a Twist and after studying the board set-ups I can't seem to figure out the problem sets. Some of the problem sets are Grouping + Sequencing games and I haven't even gone over that lesson yet. Is it normal that I'm confused? What can I do to get better at just simply making the boards? After I make the boards I whizz through the questions.

Hello Everyone!

I graduated grad school in 2018 and I have not been in touch with any of my professors in either undergrad or grad schools.

Most law schools I’m looking into require at least 2 letters. I have one mentor from my previous workplace who is happy to write a letter for me.

Should I get my second letter from my grad school professor or management at my current workplace? My concern for both is the ‘lukewarm’ recommendation letter from

Any advice on this or how to reconnect with professors in school would be appreciated!!

If you can achieve mastery when practicing under difficult conditions (i.e., lesser time than allotted), then you can surely excel and feel confident, relaxed, get in the flow when you have beneficial conditions

Work will always expand to fill the time allotted.

-Even when I added the extra 50% to my practice, it still took me more than the time allotted (52 minutes.).

-Scores are fairly consistent unless you're rushing haphazardly. I found that when I reduced my allotted time from 52 min. down to 35 min., I began to receive the same score per section as before.

Just some things I found helpful!

When do they usually open up on LSAC, so we can start working on our Fall 2022 applications?

Hi all,

I am fully vaccinated and now that libraries are open again are there any people in the NYC that would like to form a study group for the November exam. I am also happy to work with people who are taking it earlier. I am PTing in the low 160s and really trying to get to the high 160s at least. I have taken the LSAT before and really want to get it right this next time :)

Hi everyone, I'm making problem sets & forgot to add 1 question into the set. Does this mean I have to create the set all over again? Is there a button that would allow me to just edit and add 1 question instead of having to start from 0? Thanks

I'm wondering if I should consistently be taking all 4 sections of PT's (not only for building test stamina) but because I've heard that one LR is usually harder than the other? Is this true? I've looked at the LR scores of full PT's that I've taken, and on 50% them I scored significantly better on one section than the other, but in the other 50% I scored roughly the same on either section. Does this mean some of the higher scores that I've gotten on Flex PT's have been skewed because I happened to only take the easier LR section?

in every scenario while translating, does the sufficient always come before the arrow and necessary come after?

Would you commute 1.5 hours (3 hours total a day) if you got a 50%-60% ride? Or would you stick to a 20 minute commute for a 30% ride? We have a Chevy volt so gas really isn't a huge issue.

I am following the schedule of the for the October 2021 test. While reviewing the weekly curriculum I noticed that after week 5, I start taking 5-6 LSAT's a week up until test day. Is this recommended? I feel like it takes me at least two days to take a test, blind review, and watch/review explanations to any missed questions. Not sure I would have enough time to do that many in one week. Thanks!

Hey ya'll, I'm consistently between -5 and -1 on LG sections while I'm PT'ing, but hitting that -0 either in drills or BR... Do you have any tips for closing the gap? How do I manifest the knowledge I knowI have from BR into the actual game? I've been foolproofing games 1-35, but any constructive tips (maybe it's time to move out of the oldest psets) would be useful! Should I be focusing on timing now?

Prior to 7Sage, I used Princeton Review and Khan Academy. Both of these resources did not limit their examples to PT 1-35 like 7Sage did. I've been working my way through the tests but I've found myself remembering portions or even entire sections of a test. Does anybody have any suggestions on what to do when I find myself remembering RC passages or LG sections or LR questions?

Hey all,

I have time to work with 1-2 more students a few times per week this summer. 1L expanded my ideologies about the test and its importance. More about my background can be found on the tutoring page here:

Update: My inbox filled up more than expected and I no longer have openings. However, I am always willing to offer insights about the test or admissions process via DM. Happy Studying!

Jesse charges 200 an hour, but has some really good reviews. Has anyone turned to Jesse as a tutor, and is he worth the money?

Effective July 8, 2021, the LSAC have introduced two distinct Fee Waiver packages to assist candidates of varying economic circumstances. Candidates who meet the criteria will receive access to the following, based on the tier for which they are approved.

Tier 1: Designed for the most under-resourced candidates. Candidates approved for Tier 1 will receive, at no charge:

Tier 2: Designed for less under-resourced candidates. Candidates approved for Tier 2 will receive, at no charge:

Eligibility for the LSAC Fee Waiver Program is based on the U.S. federal poverty guidelines, with different thresholds for independent and dependent candidates. In the past, for example, an independent candidate earning less than or equal to 250% of the federal poverty guidelines, and a dependent candidate earning up to 150% of the poverty guidelines, were eligible for the LSAC fee waiver, provided they met thresholds for cash balances, overall assets, and other requirements.

Under the new program, an independent candidate earning up to 250% of the federal poverty guidelines will continue to be eligible for the Tier 1 fee waiver package. An independent candidate earning 250-300% of the poverty guideline will now be eligible for the Tier 2 fee waiver package. Similarly, dependent candidates will be eligible for the Tier 1 fee waiver package if they earn up to 150% of the poverty guideline; if their income exceeds this amount, they can receive further consideration if their income combined with their family income does not exceed 300% of the poverty guidelines. All candidates will still need to meet other eligibility criteria.

In addition to creating the new tiered system for fee waivers, the LSAC is also increasing the maximum cash balances candidates can have and still qualify for one of the fee waiver tiers. Previously, the limitations on cash balances had prevented some candidates from qualifying for fee waivers.

The LSAC encourage students to apply for fee waivers at least six months in advance of when they plan to take the LSAT, so they have an opportunity to fully utilize PrepPlus, which is included in the fee waiver packages.

So I picked C the first time around and I wanted to know if this would have been the correct answer if the stimulus had concluded that the government's decision to limit the nuclear power plant's liability in case of a nuclear accident was an unwise decision because the financial security of the operators of these nuclear power plants is dependent on the plants being safe (b/c if they weren't, then they would go broke)

And why would the government choose to help nuclear power plants in this way? I thought the decision to limit financial liability was the government admitting the nuclear power plants weren't safe...but that's wrong, according to the video.

Hello everyone,

I'm looking to create a group chat (either via iMessage or Discord chat) to form a study group for highly motivated, and actively studying individuals looking to take the October 2021 exam or the November 2021 exam.

I would be looking to meet realistically at least twice a week to try and hammer out some hard questions and strategies.

Currently I am PT'ing in the mid 160 range, but looking to get to the 170 range by October's exam.

Everyone regardless of current PT score is invited, that being said this group will be for those looking to shoot for the 170 score range.

Please leave a comment or message me privately if interested.

Thank you.

help, what do I do if I do not have good teachers to ask for letters of rec for my application ?

I recently realized that LSAC takes into account your grades from all institutions when calculating your GPA.

A little about me... I took several dual credit classes in high school and transferred to a different school after my freshman year. Although I did not do poorly in the dual credits or my freshman year, I did not get a 4.0. I graduated from my degree issuing institution with a 4.0. My LSAC GPA is predicted to be around a 3.78.

All that being said, I understand that I cannot omit my grades from high school and my transfer school. Would it be worthwhile to write an addendum with my application showing that I graduated with a 4.0 from my degree issuing school?

.I really do want to attend this school, but I can't go through with it If I will take on $200k+ debt for it. Biglaw is something I'm considering as well.

Are multiple colored highlighters allowed on the LSAT?

Should we be practicing with a 4th section to help us prepare for August test?

Any advice on perfecting RC? Currently pt'ing around -3,-4.

I just got back my June flex score today (since I delayed completing the writing sample) and am unsure whether to keep or cancel my score. This is my first LSAT take. I got a 156 and while it is within the range of how I've scored leading up to the test, albeit on the very low end, I was hoping to score at least in the low 160s since I have been scoring there, my last two PTs leading up to the June flex were both 163. I will definitely be retaking as I cannot apply with this score, but not sure at this point whether keeping it on file is worse or a cancel is.
