Hi all! I began my LSAT studying today, but previously took two practice tests. One last month, and the other in November 2025. I'm located in Chicago, IL, and would like to know if there are any other individuals in the area with an LSAT timeline similar to mine. I aim to take my first, and hopefully only, LSAT test in either June or August 2026, depending on my PT scores.

Are there any study groups created for individuals in the area? Any study spots any of you all would recommend as well? Please let me know! (:

EDIT: I have received a few messages from individuals expressing interest in joining a study group in the Chicagoland area. I've created a dedicated study group chat. Please join below!

I just finished the theory/core core curriculum today and am moving into the practice/drilling phase of my studying. For the theory I watched every video explanation for every question because I wanted to focus my time and energy on understanding the test. As I move into the drilling phase where I am turning my focus towards answering questions correctly and quickly I am wondering if it is still worth my time to watch video explanations even for questions I confidently got right. If anyone has any tips/suggestions on what has worked for them in the drilling phase please let me know! Thanks!

LSAT January 2023

LSAC has released three recent official PrepTests (2023, 2024, and 2025) (Those are from the real scored sections). These are the four Logical Reasoning questions I missed from the January 2023 exam. If anyone—especially tutors—is able to provide explanations for them, I would really appreciate it.

Where did it go?

Am I crazy or we can no longer see our 7sage activity ie. how many questions we have been answering each day. Just a few days ago the bar graph showing how many questions and whether they were RC or LR- was available and now I cannot find it.

I took the LSAT in my final year of college and got a pretty good score (169). Right now, I'm studying for June or August to see if I can improve on that for when I apply next fall. If my PT's aren't trending well by test time and it seems like I may not improve, I plan on not taking the test and going with my old score just to avoid scoring lower.

Would I be negatively affected by applying with a 2 year old LSAT score? I've seen some schools, Notre Dame, for one, say that they recommend taking the LSAT within a year of applying.

Usually when I complete a question during a drill, one of the first stats I look at his how much time I spent on the question. But now when I hit analytics, the time I spent (and whether I was over or under the ideal time) is hidden and I need to expand that side tab in order to see my time analytics. Is this a recent update or just a glitch on my laptop?

I noticed that there's option to predict admissions for undergrads that don't have a gpa (like international or pass/fail programs). Is there any way to predict for these degrees, and if there is can 7sage add it? Also, how does not having a gpa affect admissions?

Hi! I have been studying for the LSAT since January & I am planning to take it in June. Possibly in August if I feel it is necessary.

I am looking to form a study group with others in the Minnesota area. Just looking to build a good studying community!

Hi Everyone, I recently took the LSAT in January and due to life and work, I had to do it in the middle of a cross country move so I scored much lower than I know I could have gotten based off my drills and PT's. I was planning on taking it again this week for February, but I think I want to practice more cause I know I can get above 165.

Can I reschedule it for April and still use that score to get into law school this fall?

Thanks Everyone!

I realized I need to include a character and fitness addendum due to taking a former business partner to arbitration. The arbiter decided in my favor, so I'm just planning to give some brief details and note that my attorney filed the award as a judgment.

I was wondering if I should also include a brief discussion of a speeding ticket I got about a year ago. The questionnaire specifically excludes minor traffic violations, but I'm seeing online and in the 7sage lesson on Character and Fitness that it might be best to include it anyway.

Any insight on how to cover these two events, or if it's even necessary to mention the speeding ticket, would be very appreciated!

I notice in the Admissions section of 7Sage, when calculating the chance of Admission/Waitlist/Rejection from Law Schools, there is an option to select URM. My preconception about Law School admissions in 2026 is that they aren't really allowed to use that as a factor for admission. I know that there is an exception for use in Essays/Personal Statements, is this what is factoring into the potential increased percentage of admission for certain schools when checking that box on 7Sage? If so, generally what does this look like; weaving the status of URM (whatever that may mean for the individual) into our application's writing portions? Is that what is signifying the admissions boost?

I was curious about this, if anybody has some insight that would be awesome! Thanks.

Waitlist

Just got waitlisted from my top school (Suffolk Law School). What are the odds I get admitted from the waitlist?

Houston / Pearland Texas Area

Hey guys. I’m in the South Houston area looking for study partners with the LSAT. I’ve been studying, but I feel like if I had partners, I’d be more consistent and motivated. I also learn better while bouncing ideas off of others. If you’re in this area and need a partner, please reach out.

Best practice?

Hello all, I started this program back in early February and been trying to keep up with a full time job, helping out my wife (she’s in full time school and full time job and on top of all of that, a part time internship 😅) and trying not to go insane! I found a great discussion post recently about when to study and for how long which made me feel a lot better about where I am at so far, however, I feel like I’m moving extremely slow, especially with the study plan. I’m technically behind it according to 7sages recommendation which is fine, it mostly feels like I’m learning something and then trying it out but then immediately learning something new again. For example last week ish I was on must be true examples and questions and now I’m on resolve, reconcile and explain questions, which I’m definitely struggling with. Anyways my main question here is I’m going to keep moving with the study plan but should I be adding some more drills to my practice?

Necessary Assumptions

Hi all,

I just finished the NA module and am doing some drills but it's going horribly. I know these questions are really difficult, but I just can't seem to get a grasp on it.

I know that these questions depend on your making your own assumptions based on the information given, but it's annoying when the explanations make it seem like you're supposed to get that one specific assumption. I guess I'm frustrated because you can come up with so many assumptions, but the right one is like the 3rd one you came up with and it's said in a very convoluted way in the answer choice, and on top of that, you also have to do the negation test, which for me is also a bit confusing...

It's making me feel like I'm not good at making assumptions and then also the negation test frustrates me as well because it wants me to negate (which I am good at, all my negations match up) but I can't seem to figure its relationship with the argument...

I don't really know what the point of this post was, maybe partially to rant, but I think I just would like your guys' input on what you did to overcome the difficulty, frustration and feeling like nothing in the NA makes sense because I feel like I'm about to start tearing out hairs..

Conditional Reasoning is destroying me

Anyone have any advice on how to get over this hump with conditional reasoning. I took the LSAT back in September 2025 and got a 151 with 3 months on little to moderate studying while working 40+ hours a week. I had not done anything LSAT until a week ago and I received a 140. I find myself getting lost in the middle of the question and my focus is becoming blurry. I notice this most with Conditional reasoning questions. Anyone have advice? I need at least a 163 to aim for my school of choice (FIU), but I don't see that happening when I take this thing in April & June.
