I am too tempted to look at my score after each practice test to do blind review via the 7Sage interface (I still do it, but not in the streamlined and convenient way that 7Sage offers). Can you please add the ability to see your score (or at least the option to do so) before doing "blind review?" Thanks!
Hello! I hope everyone's doing fine with LSAT. I'm taking LSAT-flex in coming days. I'm wondering whether we can use ctrl+F during LSAT-flex (cuz I just spent one whole minute on one RC question trying to spot where one person's name was mentioned lol). I heard that they aren't disabling this function, but do they consider the use of this function as cheating?
Some customers prefer vanilla to chocolate and no customer has no preference in the matter. Therefore, most customers prefer chocolate.
Most customers order chocolate ice cream, and most customers get toppings. All customers who get toppings get a free hat. So, some people who order chocolate ice cream get a free hat.
Everyone who orders a sundae gets offered a free extra cherry, and most people say yes to the free extra cherry. Some people who order the banana split get offered a free extra cherry, and less than half of those people say yes. Therefore, more customers get a free cherry with a sundae than they do with a banana split.
Everyone who orders a sundae gets offered a free extra cherry, and most people say yes to the free extra cherry. Some people who order the banana split get offered a free extra cherry, and less than half of those people say yes. So, people who order a sundae are more likely to say yes to a free extra cherry than are people who order a banana split.

Overall, I'm having difficulty mapping out the solutions with some, most, all... Thank you very much for your help in advance!
Hello all, I applied for about 10 schools back in January and beginning of February as I was thinking I needed to get on it. I only applied to schools where I was at their median LSAT or better. My GPA is over the 75th. I am in Canada, so not sure if that makes a difference. I have only received 3 acceptances so far, and 1 rejection from a school that I was WAY over there medians (it was my 1st choice school so pretty disappointed)....is anyone else waiting for months without hearing back from the law schools they applied to? I have checked with a few schools and they replied back that they are still reviewing applications....but wondering if this experience is unique to me, or are others waiting 8+ weeks to hear back.
And...has anyone had any luck on appealing and renegotiating scholarships this year?
The screen on my MacBook Air is small. I am planning on hooking up my 27-inch monitor to the MacBook Air, which I think will help me with Reading Comprehension, and really every aspect of the test, having the larger screen size and larger font. I'm guessing this is not cut and dry as far as the rules, but I don't see anything in the rules that specifically prohibits using an external monitor to take the test. Any thoughts? It will be the MacBook Air, and the 27-inch monitor on my desk (along with the other materials).
Hello fellow 7sagers,
I was wondering, if anyone was interested in forming a social/network/support group. The purpose of the group talk about LSAT, law school and even non-law school related topic. We can arrange a time to host each other maybe bi-weekly, monthly, or whenever possible via zoom. Am also hoping that this group will support us through our legal career.
I wish everyone the very best in their legal journey.
Here is the link to the group
You're invited to my new group 'LSAT Social/Network/Support Group' on GroupMe.
I'm sure this has been discussed before, but I'm at that 160s hump. I'm ranging from anywhere between 160-mid160s. I can't seem to get passed it. I'm around 1-3 LG, 2-5 RC, and 6-8 LR!!! The LR section is really dragging me down. I'm thinking about re-reading The Loophole. I've already done 7sage's core curriculum. I've even read Mike Kim's book and the PowerScore LR Bible. Does anyone have any other suggestions for improving on the LR?
Hi all,
I'm new to 7sage. I've been looking at the section on Blind Review and I can't seem to find an answer to this (in the forum either) but maybe it's just because I haven't yet taken a PT via 7sage, only through the LSAC Lawhub.
With LSAC, once you complete a PT your score and right/wrong answers show up automatically. If you go back through to circle (or in this case "flag") your unsure answers, it will show the correct answer in a box. I gather from the videos that this will bias me towards those answer and will therefore be unhelpful.
When you take PTs via the 7sage interface, is here an extra step between finishing your test and actually revealing all the answers? Is this built in so you can do that blind review step?
Thanks in advance!

are you able to retake a practice test? if so, how? I don't see the option #help
A
I've seen powerscore discussions that say control F is still allowed but couldn't find it in the official rules.
Ah spring... a time of rebirth and renewal and COPIOUS amounts of tree pollen in Va. Allergy symptoms are attacking and I’m not clear headed for tomorrow’s exam at all. Can I do a score preview or switch it to June or is it too late?!
What happens if your proctorU session cuts out half way through due to a legitimate internet connect
[...] connection problem? There is a three day window for the scheduling of exams. Will they hear problems and allow retakes under certain circumstances?
Might be helpful in the LG section.
Maybe it's just me but also my honest feedback having been a 7sage student for months now. Some of these explanation videos can be frustrating. It assumes I have the same mindset, thinking or approach to J.Y. and doesn't even address remaining answer choices. "This answer is obviously wrong;" "Answer E is just crazy;" "once you figure it out C becomes obvious;" "there's no need to go over the other answers."
I mean they (wrong answer choice) clearly aren't that obvious if I chose it for my final answer.
You sure the answer is crazy? Cuz I was convinced it was the right answer lol.
It would be great, (especially) for LR if we get explanations as to why the wrong answers are wrong. For some of us, they may not be as obvious.
So I am highly considering UCI law due to generous scholarship and their overall ABA reports. Originally, I was on the fence about the school because it's relatively new... However, it does seem like they have been performing well overall especially for being such a young law school. I will admit that their recent drop in rankings is concerning to me. Are there any current UCI students I can talk to here or can shed some light on their drop in rankings? I know rankings aren't everything but I am curious as to why they dropped so much. Of course, any and all opinions are welcome whether you go to UCI or not. Just need some help deciding and getting some overall insight since it's seems like a top contender for me right now. I am still waiting to hear back from a couple more schools and am currently trying to get off a waitlist at another school, but definitely considering UCI. I would love to get some details on their overall law school system and administration as well. Thanks!
For context, I am not big law or bust. Not PI either. I'm interested in IP/Patent law or healthcare/ medical malpractice law so far (still fluid. Figured I would find out what I like in law school). Graduated with a science degree and also plan on practicing in CA
I'm unable to select problem sets with the new function. Help
I've been studying for about a year and RC has always been my worst section (currently I average around -6). I've been mainly studying by myself but I feel like I could use some extra RC help. I'm wondering if anyone has tried Graeme Blake's (LSAT Hacks) mastery seminars, particularly the one on RC. It's 200$ so I'm a bit hesitant.

Feel free to duplicate and use as an aid in reviewing!
Each database includes a Default (Kanban) view to track how many times you have reviewed each problem, and a table view where you can sort problems by the reason you made the mistake. Each table also has a column for you to note important takeaways you noticed when reviewing the problems.
I hope this will be useful for some of you!
Can it be lined or must it be blank computer paper? Thanks!
Hi guys, taking the April LSAT and I saw on the LSAC website a requirement stating something along the lines of 'no electronic devices (other than the computer for taking the test and the phone for check-in) are allowed in the room'. Unfortunately, my initial plan was to take the test in my office at work as it's one of the only quiet and undisturbed places I have access to, and while the space has very high cubicle walls and the computers can all easily be powered off and slightly moved around, some screens would still be visible if asked to do a sweep of the whole room. There's also a giant flat screen TV nailed to one of the walls (it's never on, but it definitely can't be moved).
I'm guessing LSAC wouldn't allow me to test in this space and I should change my plans?
Hey there! I am just wondering if anyone out here has tried the Camo Review method from Elemental Prep. How does it compare to blind reviewing in your opinion? Personally, I find it to be a better way to go about LR blind reviewing (and possibly reading comprehension), but I am curious if there are some drawbacks that I am missing that others have caught on to.
Hi everyone,
I am seeking a tutor for RC. I would like a session once a week for 1.5 hours. If you are an RC tutor (or you know a good RC tutor) please message me for more details.
Thanks,
Nicole
I have my exam coming up in a few days and I thought if I practiced hard enough, the fact that it's over the computer might not be such an issue. However, I've noticed that my reading speed is significantly slower when I'm reading off a screen vs. when I'm reading off of paper. Does anyone have any tips on how to make reading off of a screen easier and/or any tips of improving my reading off of a screen? Any and all help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!
Hello,
I was just wondering if anyone knows any information regarding the LSAC Prep Plus Subscription and if I would need to subscribe to it to keep seeing PrepTests on here (7sage). I dont use the lawful.lsat.org site however I did log on to see if there was anything of interest and it says that my expiration date is approaching. If anyone has any information in regards to this I would greatly appreciate it.
