Hi everyone!
I've been working on the LG section and have been doing some of them multiple times. Whenever I redo them after watching the explanation videos my score improves. I have been wondering if redoing LG will distort view of how well I can master the LG section? Does it actually represent how good I am at logic games? I am just scared that the improving scores will give me a false sense of confidence.
Thank you for your help!
Hello!
I keep seeing a lot of comments of people who think that the priority section under results refers to whether the question itself is considered to be high or low priority in general. I thought I would make a post to clarify this, in case it helps anyone.
When it says a question is high priority it just means that it is high priority for you specifically. Meaning that you should review the video explanation because you got the question wrong before and after blind review or that you didn't blind review a question you got wrong which makes the system assume that you were 100 percent certain about your wrong answer.
So don't freak out! You are not getting high priority questions wrong. The priority tag gets assigned and tailored to you specifically AFTER your responses have been submitted. There is no standard set of high vs low priority questions.
I hope this is helpful to someone ✨

I started studying in March of this year using the Powerscore books and the Testing and Analytics membership.
I did all three Powerscore Bibles and their entire 3 month curriculum.
About a month before today's test, I realized I wasn't making "enough" progress. My goal is a low 160.
I joined 7Sage and tried to "Frankenstein" my approach to refine my weaknesses: doing PTs, analyzing my answers with the explanation videos.
I made some progress with explanation videos, after completing PT sections, but after today, it's clear I was not ready.
Where do I go from here? Private tutor? Do the 7Sage curriculum from scratch?
How do I regroup?
Dear members of the best metroplex in the US,
It's your boy lsat_sus. I'm happily swimming in the sea of the 160's and I'm tryna set up an in-person study group with folks in the DFW area. All I ask is that you've been through the CC at least one-time (it'll help ourselves help ourselves). Folks out in Garland, Plano, Frisco, McKinney, Carrollton, Denton - y'know what I mean? Let's do this fam? UT Austin literally calling our names rn.
Hey everyone! I just selected a few weakening questions from PT1-35 so that i could solve them in the problem sets. However, after submitting it, i could view the right answers but there were no explanation videos. When i clicked on explanation, It led me to the discussion forum. Could you guys tell me how to go about it?
Hi 7Sage community,
I just finished taking the June LSAT Flex and came out of it completely blindsided with the level of difficulty and don't think I did well on it. I already have a canceled score back from 2019, when LSAT was doing the promotion to see your score and then cancel. Back then, I had not even studied and basically took the test as a diagnostic and cancelled my score. After this test, which I don't feel good about at all, I would like some insight on whether it would be better for me to cancel my score. But in doing so I will have two cancelled scored out of three tests taken, which I don't how badly will impact how I look to law schools Any advice would be appreciated, thanks!
Best,
Ruchi
I spoke to a Dean of Admissions for law school. I didn't get in this year but she is pushing for me to withdraw my application. I am not sure why that's the case. Does anyone know? Should I just wait for a denial or withdraw my application? Thanks.
I am looking to retake a preptest that I took months ago and was wondering if there was a way to do this without deleting the past answers? Thanks!
Hey everyone, I'm taking the August 2021 LSAT and looking for a study buddy to review PTs and individual sections with. I currently work full-time so most of my studying during the week is early in the morning (around 7 a.m. ET) or in the evenings (after 6 p.m. ET) However, on Sundays and Mondays, I do PTs and study upwards of 6 hours.
Anyone in the D.C. area interested in creating some kind of study group for these next few weeks?
Hey Everyone, quick question!
What is the protocol when it comes to scratch paper during the flex? I vaguely remember reading somewhere that we're supposed to rip up/destroy our scratch paper on camera after the test? I'm wondering if this a mandatory written rule. I don't recall reading this on the flex instructions.
I just took my LSAT writing, and I didn't rip up the scratch paper on the camera. I'm hoping this doesn't get my test flagged.
Thanks!
How does one identify a great private tutor? What's a reasonable hourly fee?
I took a test on Lawhub, is there a way to transfer it to 7sage?
Is LSAT test taking skill acquired or innate?
Let's have a discussion.
Hi yall!
So I am taking the test in a few days and I just totally forgot how to I solved NA questions. (I know this sound so dumb and ridiculous) I can solve all other questions fine but I literally just freeze and can’t do anything whenever I see any NA type. I’m freaking out big time here.
If you have any way of solving/approaching NA, I’d really love to hear it. This literally feels like I have a short term memory loss. Please send help.
So I am taking the June LSAT but also expect to take as many as I have to in order to reach my goal. Diagnostic was a 154. I have been studying for a total of 10 months and I am current scoring low to mid 160s, lowest being a 161 and highest 167. My goal score is a 167-169 but a 170+ wouldn't hurt. I study 4-6 days a week for 4-6 hours. My worst section is RC and my best is LG. In RC I mainly missed them because I usually don't have enough time to properly read the last passage. And for LG I usually run out of time before I get to answer the last 2 question.
RC- Avg. -7 (Low:-2)
LR- Avg. -5 (Low: -4)
LG- Avg. -4 (Low:0)
Let me know if interested... Will be DMing
On Wednesday, June 16 at 9pm ET / 6pm PT, join four 7Sage Consultants discussing how resumes and optional statements can be used to make a polished and cohesive application package. We'll touch on resume formatting, the importance of addenda for context, and how optional statements can be used strategically with the personal statement to share more about the candidate. There will be time reserved for Q&A.

I take the flex on Sunday in 2 days. The last time I took a PT was on Wednesday and it was my highest score so far. Should I take another PT today or end on that good note and just do practice problems for my weak points?
For example, if my exam were scheduled at exactly 12 (if all goes according to plan) how long did check in take and how long was the process overall?
Trying to time when I should ask my family to not disturb me for! Thanks in advance!
To increase my admissions odds after a really terrible undergraduate GPA many moons ago, I am planning on/hoping to apply as early as possible this coming cycle. But, in spite of working on the LSAT about 6 hours a day since January I'm simply not ready for the June test, which means my first test date will be August, with the possibility of a second test in October. Are any other folks in a similar boat and working with a similar timeline? And, if so, how do you plan to manage your time between working on LSAT and preparing application materials?
(I had hoped against hope that I could be close to my score goals by this June test, take the test, have a viable score in the pocket, and then, from there, maybe split my time half-half on application materials and improving the LSAT score a few points. Now that's not the case, I am trying to sort out what my new time distribution should be. I worry about accidentally hyper-focusing on the LSAT to the detriment of the application materials.)
I picked C initially but I am confused as to why and how A is the correct answer and how that information could be deduced?

I just wanted to post on here how much I love 7Sage. In early May, I took a diagnostic LSAT and got a 156. For the first couple weeks in May, I tried to study the cheap way... I used Khan Academy. While it was certainly better than not studying at all, I found Khan Academy's solutions and explanations to be very confusing and unhelpful. In particular, I found their explanations for Logic Games to be overly complicated and unintuitive. Given their system for solving LG problems, it just didn't seem possible for me to complete an entire LG section under timed conditions. After a couple of weeks with Khan Academy, I was able to score in the low 160's, but getting to 170 seemed impossible.
After going on Reddit and reading about how people who used 7Sage were able to get -0 to -2 on Logic Games, I decided to pay for a month and try it out. That was the best money I ever spent. Before I started using 7Sage, I was happy if I missed less than 8 questions in LG. After using 7Sage for only 3 weeks, I'm only missing 1 to 2 questions on LG. Last week I took a Practice test and scored a 167 (Missing only 1 question in LG). Today, I took another practice test and got a 171 (Missing 2 in LG). 7Sage's system for making gameboards on LG problems is incredibly fast and effective. LG is now my best section on the LSAT (It used to be my worst).
I take the real LSAT on Tuesday. Before signing up with 7Sage, I did not think that getting a 170 by June 15th would be possible for me. (Even still, I'm planning on taking the test again in August because I'm assuming that, come test day, I'll score in the mid 160's). But I now have the confidence I need to take the test on Tuesday. Thank you 7Sage (3.(/p)
Hey everyone! As the June LSAT is coming up these next few days, I have spent more time on this platform these past couple of weeks than I ever have expected. So I wondered if 7Sage can offer information about "time on the website" or "time dedicated" where individuals can see how many hours and days have been spent on this website. Of course, this isn't really a "useful" tool, but more so as a fun little logistic tidbit that shows an individual's dedication and maybe the time they spent, especially once they see their success on the actual exam. It could be as general as a time displayed or as detailed as time on each type of resource. I know it currently offers the time completed as percentage of CC and PT but something for the entire website, including explanation videos. Thank you.
Plan is to take my real "high-scoring test" in August and this is like a mid-way test. I saw that my PT's were hitting 162's and 163's when my goal is really above 165 this Saturday. My score splits are really annoying, I might be working too hard but recently they've kind have gone down the drain. When I was working LR sections last week the worst I was seeing was -5/-6 and a decent amount of -2/-3's but today I hit a -9 and I've had a few -7/-8s recently. What is really annoying is that I did a -5 on RC today which is good for me, usually I am around -6/-7. A few days ago I hit a 164 with a -3 on LR and a -4 on LG and a -7 on RC, I had not worked on LG for probably 2 weeks at that point and it clearly reflected, I probably should have refreshed my mind before that test. My logic games are usually around -1/-2 but I have pretty much run out of sections so I have been reusing a lot of material. Can I have some advice for this weekend, and even some advice for getting that 172+ in August?
Anybody else just really anxious about this test for some reason? I know that I studied a lot but I really want this test to be awesome and kill it. I've been meditating before I do any LSAt stuff and that does help. Anyone have any other tips for calming down or relaxing when you get nervous or anxious? It's my first time taking it so also no idea what to expect.
