HI all,

I'm planning to work really tight for June Lsat. I don't work nor do nothing else other than preparing for LSAT for now. It would be great to have someone to study with. I really hope to finish this test by June...! So anyone want to study full time for Lsat together for roughly two months, please PM me!

I'm living in West New York, the west side of NJ. I can go up to around Fort lee, or go down to Jersey city or NewPort or other areas about half an hour driving away.

I dont prefer but if I have to, I can go to the city as well.

or others who want to do PT together from time to time, please PM me.

Is working as a paralegal before law school guaranteed to provide more satisfaction with the law school experience than someone who just goes in without having worked in a law firm or any type of legal work? can someone break down any misconceptions about this or speak on if working first in the field is smarter than someone who does not?

GPA Addendum ADHD

I'm wondering if I should write a GPA Addendum relating to ADHD. I'm currently undecided, as I've read many conflicting opinions online (some saying it could hurt my application.) Here is my story:

So, I was diagnosed with ADHD in middle school and took medication up until the end of high school. I stopped because despite trying several alternative medications and dosages, the side effects of weight loss and anxiety were far harsher than the medications' benefits. Throughout most of college, I felt not taking the medicine was more beneficial for my mental and physical well-being at the expense of the disability impeding on my academic performance and being unrepresentative of my intelligence. This past summer (2024), I spoke with my psychiatrist and started taking a new medication that alleviates the symptoms of ADHD and doesn't have any nasty side effects. Currently, I am performing at the top of most of my classes but my worry is that this is meaningless because the proof isn't on my transcript. My CAS GPA is a 3.04.

So do I write it? Let me know if y'all have any questions.

Anyone know of a way that you can print the drills for practice when you are not able to access a computer, e.g. in the car or on a plane? I know I could print some older version of the LSAT, but I'm trying to see what options I have. Should I just get a physical prep book?

Score Decrease - Advice needed

I've experienced a RC score change from -3/-4 (August and September) to -9/-10 (October and November) in timed sections and PTs. My timing for passages have been off as I'm finding it harder to synthesize the information despite review. On passage that I've retaken from early in my study, I'm doing worse than before and getting more questions wrong. Has anyone else experienced something similar with their scores?

Not much has changed in my study routine. I've studied very consistently since July but have placed less emphasis on RC this past month / month and a half. (On the plus, my LR is getting better.) Regardless, I find it strange that my score has gone this way. Have my RC skills really decreased this significantly? How can I get back to my better score average? Any advice?

Thanks in advance. And happy studying!

I wanted to know if it would be a great idea to go through logical reasoning then go back to the foundation sections of the logic section of foundations? I am currently done with most of the log sections and only have logic of causation, but I am still confused about the logic portion. I will go back through it and see what I am missing. I find it might be easier to loo at those sections and figure out what it is like since its stuff that I will see on the test.

Hi! I have been constantly scoring 149-152 for a couple of weeks. My goal is anywhere from 160 and up. I study pretty consistently and take a day off every now and then. I finished all of the study schedule on here and also did the Loophole LR book. I am missing 9-12 questions on each section almost everytime and don't know how I can change my studying to see improvements. Right now I have just been doing drills on my most missed categories but that is not helping me that much. Any tips are greatly appreciated. Thank you!

During my undergrad I spent time working and earning college credit in various labs (neuroscience, psychology, and criminology). These labs offered me a lot of experience. I am very proud of the work that I completed and grateful for the opportunities. I want to highlight this experience somewhere in my application because I believe it was a big part of my undergrad career and it contributed to my personal development. The work has not yet been formally published. I think it would fit in my resume, but I am unsure where it would most make sense. Experience seems tricky because it was not a paid position but it also does not seem to fit well into Education. Any advice is appreciated!

Hey everyone,

Selfishly interested in seeing if anyone who scored below the median on their first test has any inspiring stories to share 😅

My October score was 149 — way below what I was hoping for —and feeling especially discouraged since the November LSAT felt equally, if not more, challenging. Taking it again in January.

Anyone else in a similar spot?

Hello!

I have recently started studying for LSAT. I do have a concern which I thought I might be able to get some help here. I drill different question types now that I am moving forward with learning how to approach each of them specifically, but I am worry that those grouped practice questions are drawn from the actual tests that I will be taking every week to kind of measure and track my progress. If I see familiar questions on those full length tests then my score won't be a great reflection of my progress. Can someone help with that issue? What everyone do to keep the majority of them locked for the full length practice? That would be great if I get some help with your experiences... Thanks!

Forgive me for complaining I just need to vent :')

I know everyone says the progress isn't linear, but it is SO hard to find the motivation to study after your score goes down

Three weeks ago I got a 169 on a prep test. I was ecstatic. After 3 months of studying, I felt like I was finally about to break into the 170's.

Eager to prepare for another prep test, I spent the last three weeks adding to my wrong answer journal, going through the syllabus, and drilling question types I got wrong. I felt so confident.

I just finished another prep test about an hour ago, and I scored a 164. It is not a bad score at all, and in fact if you told me 3 months ago that I would score a 164 I wouldn't believe you. But now, I feel like that 169 was just a fluke. I feel lost on how I can study better, and I am scared my score is plateauing, and I will burn out.

I just don't know how I should study more effectively. Should I just focus on going through the course? Should I just drill over and over again? I just don't know.

I know just about everyone here has gone through something similar, so I would appreciate ANY advice you have for me on how to regain this motivation and study better.

Thank you for letting me vent, good luck to everyone studying!

Drill analytics

#Feedback

Wondering if drills analytics is a feature the 7sage team is thinking about. I think it would be useful to have analytics on drills and not just PrepTests. What do other people think?

Goal is 170+ for the August 2025 test, only took 1 diagnostic and got a 151. Already studied for about a month and haven't taken another practice test since. Want to attend NYU and currently have a perfect 4.0 GPA. Looking for someone to speak to about the LSAT and our progression, as well help each other along the way. I'm a male 20 yo looking for another male to be this person.

If so, have you found that it helps and is worth the money? Any possible recs?

I just received my October test results and my score was nowhere close to where I need it to be and was even worse than PT results. I also had technical issues during my last section of the exam which definitely affected my score. I am currently registered for the November LSAT but will likely push it back to January because I know this amount of time with a different study approach would allow me to improve my score.

Any help here would be much appreciated, as I have not looked into tutors much at all before today. It's been a frustrating day to say the least but I know I can't change anything and just have to move forward.

Study Buddy (140s)

Hi! I’m looking for a 1:1 study buddy who's scoring in the low 140s to work on strategies and do some questions together. I’m already working with a 7Sage tutor, but it’d be great to team up with someone at a similar level for some extra practice. If you’re interested, dm me! Thank you!
