I graduated from undergrad in 2024 and decided I wanted to pursue law school during the summer of 2025. I was a business major, so most of my classes were online; therefore, I did not develop a personal connection with any of my professors. I also did not think I would need to, since I was not thinking of pursuing higher education after I graduated. I plan on getting a letter of recommendation from my supervisor, but I also need one from an undergraduate professor. How do I go about asking my professors for a letter of recommendation when I did not establish a connection with them?

How can I break into the mid 170s?? Do I need to change the way I'm practicing and reviewing (sections and wrong answer journal) or just practice more? Does anyone have tips to start scoring consistently -0/-1 on LR instead of -2/-3? Also does anyone have issues with RC consistency / tips on how to become more consistent?

Aiming to test in June 2026, currently scoring in the mid 160s and looking to get into 170s. Join me!

The data is out! Our Admissions Predictor has gobbled up the freshly released data on 2025's LSAT and GPA medians.

Step on up, plug in your numbers, and see which schools you should consider targets, reaches, and safeties.

Some highlights from the new data:

Across the board, LSAT medians and GPA medians are up, as we predicted.

The average increase among T14 schools was less than lower-ranked schools. There's a sense that top schools have already have a glut of high-number candidates, and so are using increased application numbers to focus more on softs, like your work experience and application narrative.

Penn's LSAT median is a 173, up from a 172 last year.

Duke's increased from a 170 to a 171

Berkeley's GPA median increased from a 3.87 to a 3.92

UChicago has joined Yale, Stanford, Harvard, in the 174-median club.

WashU has clearly the highest medians, with a 175-3.96.

But remember that your numbers don't tell the whole story. In a competitive cycle, a strong narrative and strong essays are key. 7Sage Admissions has some great affordable resources for those looking to perfect their applications, from Essay Workshops with professional writers and Office Hours for strategy discussions with an admissions officer of your choice, to comprehensive consulting options. https://7sage.com/pricing/admissions

I've noticed my biggest weakness, especially for RC, are science passages/questions. I don't know if it's intimidation or just being completely incompetent at understanding basic science, but I really struggle here. I get confused mid-stimulus and lose the point of the question, then tend to start worrying about how I'm doing on time.

I guess a lot of it has to do with just being able to comprehend the passages, but that in itself is quite difficult for me. So are there any tips anyone has for science questions? Or am I kinda cooked?

Hi Everyone! I have pretty much exhausted all of the material for studying and I'm not sure if I should just continue with re-doing some sections or use the bonus prep tests. I know that it says that they are not indicative of the current tests, so just wondering how beneficial they would be for practice.

Hi! I am making my way through core curriculum and completing the questions assigned each day along with watching the lessons. I did notice when looking at my analytics that I have not drilled many questions and I was wondering if people suggest to up my drilling once I've finished core or if they recommend doing it alongside core? I know I am learning concepts but I worry that I am not putting in enough time or practice. Is there like a 'homework' plan alongside the lessons? Can anyone also lmk how long they spent in between testing and completing core just drilling, attending live classes and doing PTs? Much appreciated :)

I am trying to upgrade to plus on my phone but when I click the “subscribe” button nothing happens. Anyone else dealing with this?

this was my 5th practice test, other two were on LSAC and were 138 and 135. I started studying in september early, with the lsat trainer book clearly didn't help me just taught me the basics i guess, i finished it, and have had 7 sage for barely a month. Since i have been going down i went back to the foundations and core curriculum for about 3 weeks now. I feel like doing the core curriculum things are starting to click and i wanted to take a prep test just to see where im at. do you guys reccomend sticking to foundations and not doing preptests or should i keep doing them weekly? My goal is to take april lsat aiming for 160+

Please give me advice w out discouraging me more than i already am

I took a practice test a few months ago for the first time and got a 161. I did not study additional LSAT material since then, but I retook a different practice test just now and got a 168. I have a lower GPA so I need a higher LSAT score for law school admissions. My goal is a 171+ but hopefully around the 173-174 range. Should I go ahead with schedule and take the LSAT that I am signed up for in January, do intense prep until then, and risk having to retake in the future? Or should I reschedule for later in the year when I have prepped more so I only have one good attempt on my record?

Hello, good morning, my journey with the LSAT has been a rollercoaster to say the least. I am taking it for the second time next year, April.

I am eager to study; however, I want to be held accountable and be able to pace myself with someone, group of others.

I currently work at a law firm, Mon-Fri. Weekends work best for me. Please comment, like, share, if you're interested in tackling this thing together.

I am planning and going to attend law school in the fall of 2026, that is the goal.

Let's do this thing.

Hi! I just began studying for the LSAT and would love to join or start a study group. Happy to do in person or online with people in NYC! Let me know if anyone would like to form a study group or can invite me to an existing one!

I started studying for the LSAT in the beginning of September and spend about 2 hours a day studying for the exam. I originally planned to take the LSAT in February, but am now considering taking it in April because I am not sure I feel ready. I really want to score high 150s - 160. Is it bad that I am pushing off this test? Is about 7 months of studying, 1-2 hours a day good?

I took the LSAT in August, took a break 3 month break from studying, and I'm ready to get back into it! Does anyone have any advice on the best way to resume studying?

I find that when reviewing the question explanations, especially the videos after I've completed BR, I want to move the explanation window so I can see the first take and BR results. The window is centered w/o the ability to move.

I’m new to this discussion forum and currently preparing for the LSAT. I really like how structured the 7Sage lessons are, especially for logic games and logical reasoning. Sometimes the preparation feels overwhelming, but following a clear plan helps a lot. One thing I’m learning during LSAT prep is how important attention to detail is. Small mistakes in assumptions or timing can change the whole answer. This mindset is helpful not only for exams but also in real life work. In my daily job, I also deal with detailed planning and calculations, like working on moisture protection estimating services, where accuracy and careful review are very important. I feel these skills connect well with LSAT thinking.

Wishing best of luck to everyone studying, and happy to be part of this community.

I know the city has to be crawling with so many of us, looking for a biweekly study session-- for accountability purposes

is anyone else experiencing this weird bug where when you search for a question, it doesn't pop up. Like for example on analytics or when you try to build a drill manually?

It started happening around 2 weeks ago and it's been really bothering me.

Does it really matter to law school admissions if you have fewer LSAT scores with an application? I am considering changing my test date (currently scheduled) from February to April, or just taking both tests. I already have a previous LSAT score, so I want to know if it would make much of a difference on an application if I had two scores or three? Should I reach out to individual schools?

Applicants are up 22 percent from last year, and LSAT test-takers are up 19 percent. That’s leaving a lot of applicants wondering what this cycle really looks like.

This episode of the 7Sage Admissions Podcast features our Fall 2026 Application Vibe Check Deans Roundtable, with a panel of law school admissions deans discussing the realities of the current cycle.

They address key questions applicants are asking right now, including whether January 1 is too late to apply, whether admissions teams are being more cautious this year, common application pet peeves, and what they consistently like to see in strong applications.

If you’re applying this cycle and trying to make sense of rising application volume, this episode will help you understand what matters most.

In Classic 7Sage, I could just drag screenshots of existing questions straight to my iPad, but it looks like that feature has been removed in the new version. Is that right?

I just switched to the new 7Sage yesterday. I noticed that I can no longer select the quick view feature for a question that would allow me to drag the image of the question to my desktop or to another tab. Up until now, I have been opening those and quickly dragging them to my wrong answer journal or to a word document for printing.

I would really appreciate if this feature was brought back and believe other students would benefit from this as well.

Hi everyone, just wanted to share a review tip that has been really helpful for me. I have found it really helpful during some of my review to talk through sections outloud in real time, recording my entire process on a voice memo app (Macs have a really good one built in). This process allows me to get a real picture of my thinking and process for every question. I found that way to often I was reviewing questions and the only feedback I had for myself was "oh man this was so obvious, what a stupid mistake" but this didn't help me understand why I actaully made that mistake, or why I preffered one answer choice over another.

By doing this for sections and pts, I have been able to allocate review time much better, and to accurately diagnose my wrong answers without the hinderance of hindsight clouding my process.

Good luck, and hope this helps someone.

To take a practice test for the first time to see my starting point to take my improvement, should I just take a prep test on 7Sage or where should I take this test?
