I've been drilling out mix-drills, and I can manage to get them done under 150% timing.

My current approach to the LR section is to skip 5Qs. But, I've been taking sections and I seem to be taking up a lot of time in the first 10Qs, if not the first 15Qs. Ideally I'd like to strive for the first 10Q in 10min or even the first 15Q in 20 min.

Does anyone have any good tips for this? Any drills that I should do? I do attend the speed drills class, but I end up taking 2min per question even there. Do I need to solidify my foundations or is it more speed-focused drilling?

Thanks!

Hi, does anyone have the link to the daily shortcut for apple podcasts? I haven't been able to find it on the app, and there's no link on the youtube channel. :(

You may have noticed some activities shifting around in your study plan. I know that can be frustrating, especially if a day you'd already completed is now showing incomplete items. I want to explain what's happening so you're not caught off guard.

We removed a few lessons from the Conditional and Set Logic and Logic of Intersecting Sets modules. (They're still available in the Lesson Library (formerly known as the Core Curriculum) if you want them; they're just no longer part of study plans.) This makes your plan a bit shorter, so later activities get pulled forward. That's why a completed day might now show new items. It's picking up activities from the next day.

One more heads-up: we'll be adding some Adaptive Drills to study plans in the coming week, so you may notice another shift then too. I wanted to let you know now so it doesn't feel like your progress keeps changing out from under you.

We really appreciate your patience, and I'm sorry for the disruption.

Once the additional drills come in, your overall schedule should look more like how it did a few days ago.

Unfortunately, in the meantime, it will look like you're behind. You're not actually behind though! I recommend just proceeding 1 day at a time even if the activities you're working on look like they're for a previous day.

I do not recommend taking the LSAT remotely

I want to share my experience so others can be informed before deciding. Even though I have a very stable internet connection, the remote system had multiple issues throughout the entire process.

ProctorU allowed me to log in, but when moving to another section, it would get stuck in waiting mode.

1. I had to log out and back in several times.

2. I had to repeat the initial inspection process four times.

3. I started at 8:30 a.m. and didn’t finish until 1:45 p.m. because of the constant technical problems.

All of this affects your focus, creates anxiety, and completely throws off your rhythm during the exam.

My advice: if possible, take the exam at an authorized test center. The experience is much more stable and avoids interruptions that can negatively impact your performance.

Hello! My name is Alessia, and I'm looking for a study group in the GTA that could meet either in person or on zoom. I'm planning to write the August LSAT and am aiming for a score of 167. This will be my second attempt, but I'm open to studying with both beginners and previous test takers. My study hours would be weekdays before 4:30pm. Let me know if you're interested!

I got this message halfway through my test while was I was doing my security check in with my proctor before the 3rd section. I really don't think my proctor instigated it - it popped up while they were talking and they never had an issues with my security. I think it was an automatic camera detection. I know that I followed all of the rules. I got approved for a retest once before because of tech issues, but I am worried how this will be treated differently since it's security related. Help line rep was not optimistic, she really got me worried I won't be approved "simply because its a security issue"

I just scored a 154 on PT141.

How cooked am i for tmrw.

TLDR- for those who have found success above 165, do you have any tips for how to use a wrong answer journal and how to make it something useful and not just an endless notebook of writing I will never refer back to after working out a problem?

I finished core curriculum a few weeks ago and am starting to get to more consistent practice on PTs and full sections. When I took the LSAT in the fall I had a digital wrong answer journal that I used mostly to track trends (I wasn't using 7Sage at the time). Now that I am using 7Sage and have analytics, I get better data without having to compile all that myself.

The wrong answer journal/recording why and how I got something wrong, is still certainly helpful now as another means of forcing me to walk through my incorrect thought process, but I am still barely going back and looking at answers after doing an initial blind review plus notes.

Does anyone have tips or ideas of how to use a wrong answer journal in an effective way that will help me get better?

For some background. I took the lsat jan 2025 and got a 149, now I am averaging in the 155s. My goal is minimum 160 for the june lsat... I haven't signed up yet as I feel like I wont be able to reach this score.

Any tips to get me to the 160s, it seems impossible.

Thanks!

EDIT: I have been trying some tips i have been given, i have found taking my time on as many questions as possible and the last few questions to focus on less seems to improve score. Hope that helps anyone in same situation

Hi everyone,

I’ve been studying for the LSAT for a few months and keep running into the same issue in LR.

I can usually narrow it down to 2 answers, but during timed sections I often pick the wrong one. During blind review, I get it right much more often.

So it feels like I’m getting trapped by answers that sound right or are possible, but not actually proven.

Any tips on how to improve answer selection between two close choices?

Do you use any specific rules or mental checklists?

Thanks!

Hi everyone,

I am rewriting the LSAT because the score I got was not high enough. I did the accelerated study plan and then switching over to practice only, with the pre-exam phase study block, last time I wrote the LSAT. This time around I've done the entire core curriculum and now want to officially start practicing. When I go to make my study plan, it says I've already done the practicing phase and even when I add another study block, it's telling me to rest for 3 days of the week. How can I change that? How can I make the study plan recognize my strengths and weaknesses from before and also as I was doing practice during the core curriculum? Is there a way to reset the system so it stops telling me I've done everything already? I did not study properly the last time I wrote it and basically want to start from the top again.

I am taking the test on Saturday, and I feel like I am being toooooo chill in advance of the test. What should I be doing.. how should I be prepping?

Hi everyone! This may be a silly question, but on testing day, granted the exam is in person at a testing center, is the LSAT administered on paper or on a computer? I am trying to understand if I should start printing PTs to give myself more realistic testing conditions.

Please let me know. Thanks so much!

Study scheduler changes in the middle of studying. I worked so hard to stay on track, and now my study schedule says I am three days behind. Has this happened to anyone? and how did you get it fixed

How does 7Sage calculate the PrepTest equivalent score?

I got -4 on PT138.S4, and my "preptest equivalent" score was a 164. Then I took PT104.S1, and I also got -4, but the "preptest equivalent" score is 169. This seems like a big jump for the same number of questions. Does this just indicate that PT104.S1 was a harder section than most?

TLDR: a feature that recommends questions for BR but not be able to see why it was flagged. For example:

I would like to review an answer that I got right but "took double the usual amount of time on". However, at the moment if I hovered over the BR review flag it would explain why - which would insinuate that I got the answer correct and lead to me select the same answer again for the BR.

In other example, the BR recommendations also lead me to seeing "I selected the wrong answer" and then simply crossing out my incorrect answer choice and going through the other 4 options without taking the time to see why I got it wrong in the first place.

Basically, I am able to "cheat" through BR by using the recommendations and I want to avoid this by properly going through the BR recommended questions without knowing why. I know the simple answer would be self-restraint from hovering over the little "!" BR recommendation, but it would be nice to be able to turn it off.

Thanks for your help!

Hello, I am writing my LSAT on August and would love to create a few study buddys for the evening around 6PM MST Monday-Thursday. Preferably, people either in CAN or Edmonton but open to anyone of course!

I've been listening to the 7Sage admissions podcast and panicking. I was wondering if I could get a second opinion on my chances of getting into Penn State Dickinson Law? Preferably from @JacobBaska :), but I'll take ANYTHING!

I am a junior at Penn State, studying Human Dev. & Family Science, minor in Social Justice. 3.92 GPA, 1500+ hours of volunteer work, have worked 30 hours a week through college, involved with SGA as a chair, and involved with THON (largest student-run philanthropy in the nation) as a chair as well.

However, I was placed on academic probation at a community college when I dual enrolled. I had a 1.9 GPA due to me taking 15 hours of straight sciences. Being homeschooled, I had no clue how bad testing effected me. I thought it was my study habits. I sought help, found a therapist, and have many coping strategies now. However, I did not meet SAP even after being diagnosed with panic disorder and severe OCD. I hope to write an addendum.

I have obviously well recovered since then, but I completely forgot the LSAC could see the mistakes I made at 13 years old. Yes, I was 13 in dual enrollment. I am 16 now. I've got LSAT age waivers and accommodations to help me take the test in June 2026. I would be 17 when I start law school next year.

As far as the LSAT goes, my first diagnostic score was 139 on March 10th. As of today, my PT is averaging 150. 11 pt increase in a month isn't awful, but I have less than 2 months to go. I'm aiming for a 165, in hopes that I at least make a 155 (median admittance score). Is that increase possible? If not, will I be able to get in, even with my awful past issues?

I've heard they give priority to PSU undergrads, so maybe that will be in my favor? My personal statement also covers why it's my dream school. I want to use my JD to open a non-profit benefitting children and families of color in poverty in Philadelphia and Penn State Law has so many awesome clinics. They also founded an anti-racist institute. I feel like I am a perfect fit and I would give my firstborn child to get in.

Being able to print out drills would be a huge help for me and many others. I know 7Sage allows us to print pts, but being able to customize a drill and then print it is the feature I would use most.

Feeling sheepish because I disregarded practicing my pacing on Reading Comprehension until the last minute... ran a full diagnostic, and just wasn't able to keep up with the RC. LR is solid, and where I want to be. RC, I was still reading the last passage. I practiced RC up front because I knew pacing was going to be an issue, but I kept procrastinating pacing exercises. Timed LR + untimed RC gets me a 178-180. Timed RC, it's 172-174. So I just pushed it to June. Any suggestions on pacing exercises for the next 7 weeks? I have an eye issue and paper/pencil accommodations, so I'll need to sort of DIY my own pacing drills.

It would be nice to have a WAJ feature that analyzes the incorrect and correct answer choices. An actual digital WAJ that students can use to track their progress, instead of keeping the WAJ on a spreadsheet or in a separate notebook. This feature may encourage more students to journal their mistakes while keeping track of their strengths and weaknesses.

hi! generally i go like -1 to -2. taking LSAT on saturday and decided to take a couple RC sections for practice this week. on several sections from ptests in the 130s, i just got like -4s and -5. freaking out a bit as ive been feeling confident up until now, and worried that these sections will reflect my test. has anyone found these RC sections to be harder? and does anyone know if these are similar to modern day RC difficulty?

Hi everyone, I wanted to ask when should I do PTs? I generate practice blocks and it generates 1 PT per week which I usually skip to do more drilling. I've taken 2 PTs (the diagnostic 143, and 1 after core curriculum/study blocks which was 151.) My question is should I be doing PT every week, 2 weeks, month? I would like to take the Aug/Sept test.

The reason I'm asking as well is the last time I took a PT (151 score) I spent so much time in BR and review because I missed a bunch of questions. I'm wondering if drilling will be more efficient (as it's easier to review smaller amounts per day) until I up my accuracy to a certain extent or do I need to sprinkle in some PTs here and there.
