In South Carolina would love study buddy !! taking nov test

I'm trying to increase my speed on easier questions so that I can have more time for hard questions, but then I ended up getting more questions wrong. Is this problem going to go away as I practice more? (when I do blind review with more time I'll get it right so I thought the only problem is that I did not give myself enough time to read more carefully and in more detail). Any suggestions?

I'm still in the Foundations section (a little over halfway through it). I thought I was improving my understanding of the formatting of these questions, but the last 4 LSAT test questions that have come up in the Foundations section, I've been completely lost and got all of them wrong because I got frustrated, couldn't map out the sentence structure and just guessed. Prior to studying, when I was taking test questions, I was averaging about 1/2 -3/4 correct, it just feels like I'm not making any progress and now I'm even backsliding. I take the test in February. Did this happen to anyone else? I'm wondering if it's because my brain is trying to understand the questions in a different way and it's just not there yet. Maybe it's the transition period? Looking for some advice. :(

I started studying for the LSAT on October 1st. I've just been doing the "Core Curriculum" lessons to get a good basis of understanding. Should I be mixing in practice drill questions even though I'm at the beginning of the lessons? If not, when should I begin to mix in the questions with the Core Curriculum lessons I do every day?

Everyone makes mistakes on the LSAT—but some are far more common (and costly) than others. In this episode, Henry and Rahela break down the five traps they see students fall into again and again, and share what separates average scorers from top performers. Whether you’re just starting or chasing that final score bump, you’ll want to hear this before your next practice test.

what to do with wrong answer journal?

I mean I know, u have to see why u got certain Q wrong but I dont understand how to utilize my WAJ. is there a way? how do u all revise it effectively? Any tips and tricks?

PS. I use CollANote app for my notes, I have created a seprate doc for WAJ. I usually take a picture of question (including AC and everything) and then I write the technique that instructor uses.

Is there any other effective way?

I'm a career switcher looking to take the LSAT in November and would like to set up a study group.

LR seems to be my hardest subject area and I'm currently PT around 145-150.

I work full time so I'm available after 5 PM EST and on the weekends.

I'd be open for doing an in-person study groups or something virtually.

Hi!

I'm going to be retaking the LSAT in November, and I'm looking for a study buddy to practice with and to help hold each other accountable! I'm in Colorado, but have no preference for in-person or virtual. My last score was a 170, but I really would like to break through the 170s -- I'd love to study with someone with a similar goal!

My current study schedule is ~3 hours a day (roughly from 3 PM - 6 PM), with full PTs on Thursday/Saturday. I really want to hit that grind 🤞

I look forward to connecting with you! :)

Does anyone know of any classes from the tutors that would focus on difficult grammar parsing and double-negatives or other things like that? Those ones tend to trip me up, and I'm looking for a way to improve. All the classes seem to be focused on specific question types, but that may not be what I'm looking for.

I couldn't access my original 7Sage account so I made a new one and purchased monthly + Prep Plus. However 7Sage + LSAC won't let me link the accounts, so I'm out $168. I can now access my original account, but my new account is useless and I lost that money. I can put a block on my credit card to prevent the purchase, but any idea how to resolve this? I want to be able to use 7Sage but I'm not dropping another $168 just for it to not work again.

Hey y'all, I'm studying for the November LSAT, which will be the final LSAT I will take. I feel pretty good about my LR, however my RC is really inconsistent. Sometimes I get -1/-2 and other times I get -7/-8. I want to drill efficiently this upcoming month and want advice on how others have improved their RC sections.

My practice consists of drilling separate passages (timed), where I focus on writing efficient and quick low res sums, and taking full length sections under timed conditions. I also try to join as many RC classes as I can. I'm trying to focus at least a full hour of RC everyday and can up that time.

How should I switch up my studying? Have there been effective practice methods that have worked for you? Would love any and all advice :)!

Tajira McCoy and her panel of admissions deans have reassembled to discuss all the topics that are at the front of law school applicants’ minds as a new admissions year opens:

• How do applicants stand out in the evaluation process (and should they even be trying to stand out)?

• How have schools tried to enroll broadly diverse classes in the aftermath of the Supreme Court’s Students for Fair Admissions decision?

• What should you do if you’re a splitter, or a KJD, or an older applicant, or a younger applicant, or ... actually, should you even be labeling yourself at all?

All that - and more! - in this month’s discussion.

Really enjoying 7Sage and it's helping me study with its wonderful explanations. However, there are some bugs that I've experienced that prove to be difficult to manage.

1. When drilling like for every question the website randomly refreshes and goes back to the first question while I'm doing a further question (like 5-6). Sometimes doing this refresh back to back, multiple times per question.

2. In the "Study Plan" feature, whenever I complete a practice section as recommended (perhaps because I do them untimed) they are never marked off as complete.

3. When I finish a week for the "Study Plan" feature, and I manually collapse the week, it does not stay collapsed upon subsequent visits to the page and it's a pain to have to scroll all the way down to get to the portion of the study plan I need (especially because after every drill I'm redirected to the analytics page as opposed to back to there).

4. On a couple of occasions I've paused during a drill and the time for that question reads 0:00 when I submit, making it hard to gauge how long I spent on that question.

Despite these, really good job on the updates, they are really helpful in aiding me to determine my weaknesses for this test and adequately prepare. I really do like the study plan feature and the task list helps me stay focused on what I need to accomplish in a given week.

I would really love to be able to maybe:

1. Open drills in a new tab (from the study plan feature), so I don't have to navigate after completion

2. Quickly view -0 sections. When I do -0 on a section, under the analytics tab where it says LR Progress I can't see that section (to be able to quickly go to the results and review that section), since there is no bar.

3. Open the study plan section and it automatically scroll to the portion of the page I need (i.e. my next drill/section/pt)

Hi,

I am new to 7sage, and I wanted to do the initial diagnostic PT to see where I am at. I noticed the time went by way to fast and I did not finish nearly half of the questions. Is this normal to get such a low score or should I wait and begin the CC before doing a diagnostic?

Hey guys, I need #help on strategizing for LR sections. I've been studying for some time now, and I know that people say that the more you practice, the more you'll see a pattern in wrong answers and right ones. Idk if it's the fact that I initially took some long breaks in between completing the CC or if I'm just overthinking things, but I have not yet seen this pattern. Any and every tip is welcome, thanks in advance!

This isn’t exactly a feature request but wanted to check: I’m applying for admissions for Fall 2027, and want to get a bit of a head start on prompts. I realize prompts change ever so slightly from year to year, so was wondering whether the “prompts” webpage will change in a way where I will lose any notes I started on now.

When I'm browsing through the recorded classes and scrolling down, I sometimes click on something to take a closer look. But when I hit the back button, it takes me all the way back to the top of the list, which is really inconvenient. I wish the back button would return me to the exact spot I was viewing before, instead of resetting to the top

Hi 7Sage!

One thing I noticed is that if you accidentally skip the Blind Review while taking a PT, then there is no other option to retake using Blind Review. This makes studying really frustrating, and I think it would be really helpful to have the option to BR even if you know your PT score results. I hope this can be implemented soon!

Best,

It might be a minor detail but I'm wondering how in depth an Addendum should be and if over explaining could help or hurt when applying with one. I'm reapplying this cycle and am unsure if it should be more detailed than my previous one. I applied last cycle with an Addendum briefly stating that I am not a good standardized test taker with proof through my ACT and LSAT scores. I said that I've worked all throughout college and therefore had less time to devote to the LSAT. I wrote that my grades are a better reflection of my hard work and what I can achieve. Should it be as simple as that?

I have really enjoyed this site, and my membership. The analytics are unmatched, the lessons are wonderful.

My only concern is that your website is so much easier on the eyes than the LSAC site is. I know how utterly ridiculous that sounds.

The first time I drilled on 7sage, I realized that my eyes did not face the same fatigue that they did on LSAC. I actually got concerned at how comfortable it was.

This is a longshot, but are there visual themes available that would be more similar to LSAC's site, so that I can practice more similarly to the way the test is going to be?

Maybe I am alone in the blue-light fatigue I experience on LSAC, but it doesn't seem to happen nearly as much here. It's been great in terms of allowing me to drill for longer without feeling exhausted, but I am concerned I am setting myself up for failure in a sense, by practicing on nicer equipment than I'll have for the test....Does this make any sense or am I just utterly looney tunes?

Hi everyone. I did the LSAT in September and got the results back. I want to know if I should keep or cancel the score.

I have only been studying since mid-July and wasn't expecting a high score considering I got a 136 in my first PT I ever did, and my last PT before the official exam was 147. I got a 147 in the official exam as well and planning to write the Nov LSAT again. My goal is 160(+).

Do you think I should keep the score or delete it? Does anyone know if the cancellation usually tends to have a negative effect on the application, or the schools look at the bright side and see improvement if I score higher in the Nov test?

I am also asking because I have only written the exam once, and the applications are due Nov 1. So is it better to have a low mark on file, or no mark at all before the application deadline?

Hi everyone. I'm realizing that a significant portion of my missed points comes from my RC section. When I do it under unlimited time, I get a pretty good score but under timed conditions, I usually miss 10-12 questions every time. When I get to the last passage, I sometimes only have 5 minutes, so I feel like I guess a lot of the last couple questions. Is there any practical advice that anyone can share for getting better with timing and accuracy that has worked for them...other than doing drills over and over?

Thank you!!

Just want to give KUDOS to the design team/administrators! Ya'll ask what we wanted, we told you, and you listened!! Thanks and great job!!

Hello! I recently completed the core curriculum and have now begun transitioning into focused practice. I've noticed that the prioritized drills 7Sage has laid out for me have tags that are attached to multiple question stems.

Curious to see if people have seen improvements by doing the drills as is (the way 7Sage designs it) or by manipulating the analytics in other ways, like singling out question stems (similar to how the curriculum did).

I'd appreciate thoughts on this and any personal experiences or tips as I grow closer to my test date, thank you!

Hello, I just did the diagnostic test and accidentally submitted before doing section 4 because I assumed that was the ungraded section but it was not. So I missed all the questions on that section. Was hoping to redo that section if possible to get an actual diagnostic score. Does anyone know how to do this?
