Does anyone know how long it takes for an ID and password to be emailed to me by a school after completing my applications. I just completed them so I am not expecting them ASAP, but I was curious as to how long this takes so I can check the status of my application. Thanks!

Do I have to include my canceled lsat on my application? Or do I only have to include my scored LSAT.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to share my experience with my first time taking the LSAT to give people some hope given my situation. I have been studying for the exam consistently since June, but it has been a bit of a challenge trying to balance everything considering that I work full time. I have been thru tutoring, the LSAT Trainer, 15 PT’s, and now I’m reading thru the Powerscore LG Bible and Ellen’s Loophole to LR along with the 7Sage Curriculum. I have felt so discouraged because I have barely ever broken 150 on a PT, Consistently scoring in the high 140’s. I was expecting to see around the same score on the November LSAT-Flex, and I checked my score to see a 154 for my first time ever taking the LSAT. For context, the highest I have ever scored was a 151 on a PT. I never thought this would be possible! It may not seem like that much of an accomplishment to some but for me it is giving me the hope to keep going to increase my score to the mid-160’s. I was losing hope for a little while, but to see that score really gave me the confidence boost to keep going!

Hello, in the RC section I struggle a lot with finding the main point of the passage. Does anyone have any strategy for how to quickly figure out the main point of a RC passage?

Hi 7sagers!

In this session we will be covering basically anything LSAT related you want! Just bring your questions and I'll (hopefully) have answers! Feel free to bring a specific LR, RC, or LG question and we'll go over them together. Or we can just talk about section strategy. Whatever you want to do!

I have gone through the 7sage CC twice, taken over 90% of the PTs out there, and scored a 173 on the November LSAT. My diagnostic was a 138. I've struggled immensely with this test, and I can show you how I overcame these obstacles.

In this session, we'll cover topics on:

-Whatever you want!

A few additional things I want to mention so we can all get the most out of the session:

Please refrain from looking at the correct answer choices when we are going through problems. It is to your benefit to be unaware so you can learn!

Please make sure your microphone is on mute during the session, unless you are the person volunteering to help answer a question.

I will be asking for volunteers throughout the session. If you would like to volunteer, please type it in the chat box.

The session will last around two hours, questions unrelated to the topic at hand should be saved until the end.

If you learned something helpful, all I ask for payment is that you share the knowledge with others that could be struggling. After all, we rise by lifting others up. :smile:

Let me know if ya'll have any questions. Hope to see you there!

I earned a 168 on my November Flex (my first real LSAT) I started out in the mid-140s as a diagnostic. It's been 3 weeks since I looked at any LSAT material. I registered yesterday to write again in January. I have taken every single PT (some of them twice). I was wondering how to choose which full PTs to take from now until January in order to maximize value.

Do I stick to PTs from the 40s and 50s so the material is not as fresh in my head or do I take some from the 70s and 80s anyway? If anyone has any other experience or advice pertaining to studying for a retake I would greatly appreciate it.

Not entirely sure how to approach this. I was taking a full length PT every other day towards the end of my studies. Is continuing on that course going to be effective? Or do I primarily focus on drilling and take 1-2 PTs a week? I truly appreciate you all for taking the time to read this.

hey everyone,

I remember JY used to do group-based BR for every new PT that comes out.

I'm just wondering if there is any news that he might do the same for the may 2020 test? Or did I miss it?

Thanks y'all

Hi Non-native English speakers out there, many people don't realize my English is not my first language in everyday life but when it comes to LSAT, I definitely feel the "non-native" language comprehension problem. Especially under pressure, I can't read and understand the RC passage correctly and accurately... so it will be a slow journey for me to get a good score on LSAT.

Non-native English speakers, how long did it take you to achieve the score you want ?

How do I unlock PTs 1-30 with Ultimate Plan?

Hi! I took the November LSAT and didn't do as well as I had hoped so I'm taking it again in February (maybe April if it's looking rough). I need someone to BR with me like once a week so I don't completely give up!!

Has anyone ever skipped specific question types and seen success?

I just took PT 79 and struggled with the LR mostly because there were a lot of NA, MSS and MBT questions - these ones generally take me longer because they are so easy to mess up.

I was thinking of completely skipping all these questions for my next timed section and coming back to them as I feel like it would save me a ton of stress and time. Was wondering what other peoples thoughts/experiences are with planning question types that you generally skip and do last for the sake of time?

Hi everyone! I noticed that in LR, I will have 2 or three questions unanswered because I run out of time. Anyone have any tips on improving timing and completing questions?

Hi! I submitted my applications but I'm planning on retaking the LSAT in January. I would like to be considered with my current score to take advantage of having an earlier application. Do schools look at it negatively when you ask them to review your current score? I'm worried that my target/safety schools will see it as a sign that I'm prioritizing other schools and I'm not sure what to say in the email.

Hey everyone, I just wanted to echo what others have said about 7Sage. It has been an immense help during my struggle with this test! There were times I thought I could not get over this hurdle. I was crushed, I had anxiety, I thought my dreams of attending law school would never be realized. It too every ounce of resolve to defeat this test once and for all.

You know it's tough, for others on the outside to comprehend what we all put ourselves through. The stress is real and you all understand that! I cannot thank you guys in the community enough for helping me through this. I am usually a lurker, and do not post often like so many of you, but it has nevertheless been amazing to be surrounded by so many dedicated individuals.

To JY, I owe you many thanks. Your countless video explanations along with your dry and witty sense of humor made the journey a little more enjoyable. I am sitting at the airport waiting to return home, drinking a blood orange IPA, and it feels good to sit bac kind reflect on my journey.

Thank you to all and god bless 7Sage! I hope you all have a great night, crush the LSAT, and get into the school of your dreams. It's not about the score, it's about your journey. Wow that's a cliché. But the thing about clichés is... they are usually true!

I'm really struggling with trying to intuitively figure out if conditionality is relevant to the flaw for the argument at hand. There are certain stimuli that include conditional indicators that seem to be linked together. When this happens, I immediately go and try to diagram it, to try to see if there is in fact conditional reasoning. Sometimes, I am correct and there is conditional reasoning that deals with the flaw. However, there are many more times when I am incorrect and I end up spending so much time trying to force a diagram. I'm struggling to zoom on the gap in my understanding. I thought I had a solid understanding of conditional reasoning, but clearly it's not the case. Has anyone run into this issue before? Any advice is welcomed. Thanks!

Not sure if this is a thing on these forums, but is anyone interested in swapping personal statements for feedback? I'm looking for general feedback plus a quick check for typos and am happy to do the same for someone else.

does anyone know how many questions you can skip and still get 170+ on the flex?

I've been studying for the past 10 months and have improved from a 145 to a 157. Upon finishing the core curriculum, I began taking PTs and blind reviewed as JY suggests. My issue is that I consistently score in the high 150s timed but also consistently score in the high 170 in BR. My biggest challenge by far is time management, which seems to mess up my flow and cause me to make significantly more unenforced errors. While working full-time at a law firm in NYC, I usually study 20 hours a week and take one PT every weekend. I hope to break into the 160 in the next few weeks.

If you are interested in joining a study group please DM me/comment below. If you are tutor or just want to reinforce the concepts you have learned by teaching them to someone else, please feel free to DM me. If you have experience as a tutor and also have successfully helped someone achieve a 170+, I would be open to paying for tutoring. Recommendations for tutors also welcome!

Hey everyone,

Has anyone recently had an interview at UChicago, and if so, do you have any tips for what kinds of questions to prepare for? I have seen previous lists of interview questions, but they all appeared to be from several years ago, so I was wondering if anyone had more recent info. Thanks!

I’ve been reading posts about now some people have gotten LSAT Flex scores lower than their practice test averages. I got a 155, but was PTing at 163-165 range. I felt the reading section (bipedalism) and logic games were tricky. LR felt standard for me. Do you guys have any advice on how to approach studying? What should I do to get a score around my PT range?

I got a 164 on the November LSAT Flex and I am debating whether or not to cancel my score. I purchased the Score Preview option and have until tonight to decide. I was aiming for mid 170s but panicked on test day and did not perform as well as I could have based on PTs. I know a 164 is considered a great score for a lot of people, which makes me hesitate to cancel it (also I am really sorry if this is a super annoying post), but it is much lower than what I was aiming for and I will definitely take it again sometime next year. I am almost positive I can do better, especially if I continue studying. What do you guys think I should do?

Hey! I am so lost on this question. "A society that has no laws has no crimes." Isn't "no" negate necessary, so that would become, in lawgic speak, L- -> C? (The no when it goes to negates "no crimes" becomes "crimes" in the positive sense. Then, why is AC A not correct?

Hi all! I wanted to post one last time to the forum to offer my gratitude to 7Sage and well wishes for those who are still studying. This program was instrumental in getting me the score I aimed for (146 --> 167). I just got accepted to UGA and am waiting to hear back on eight others. I just want to encourage everyone to keep up the hard work and offer help to anyone who feels they could use some guidance (e.g. on tough LR questions you can't parse, LG tricks, or just a friend to vent to). I'm honestly a little sad to no longer be studying, so don't hesitate to throw questions/thoughts my way. I know how tough this process can be, and just want to do my part and make it a little easier. My access to 7Sage expires in 5 days, so the best way to reach me will be through: dmarwh0@gmail.com.

Good luck to everyone! You got this =)

Hi all! I am taking the LSAT in February 2021 and am applying for Fall 2021. I checked the application deadlines and many schools I am looking at are not due until May/June/July, but do you think taking the test in the same year as applying has implications to admission, other than less time to raise my score? Thank you!

Dear All Future Test Takers,

I am trying to start a study group for the upcoming January 2021 LSAT Flex exam.

We are able to do it via Zoom call.

Let me know which days everyone is free and which works best for us so we can get started.
