🙃 Confused

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.

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.

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.

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!

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?

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 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.

Hi! I started studying in January and have taken two PTs so far. I scored a 162 on the first and a 167 on the second. I am hoping for a score in the mid 170s. Would it be worth taking the April LSAT? (I will take more PTs by then, I promise.) Even if it’s not realistic for me to get to a point where I’m consistently around my target score by then, should I still take it so I have experience with test days before June?

I should also add that I am most likely going to apply to law school in 2027, for entrance in Fall 2028. I was just hoping to finish the LSAT before I start my full time job in July, but I do recognize I have plenty of time to take the test. Sorry if this is a silly post!

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!

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?

😖 Frustrated

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..

Post is basically in the title. It would be amazing to see relevant Core Curriculum lessons linked to the questions I am reviewing. For example, if I'm diving into question 23 in section x from prep test ###, I'd want to see what Core Curriculum lessons would've helped me get that question correct. If it was a question that required deeper knowledge of casual reasoning, or the Some to All argument structure, it would be incredibly handy to have links to those Core Curriculum modules.

Plateauing a bit here and trying to break out of the 160's and into 170's. Wondering if anyone is interested in forming a group to check in every week via chat or call to motivate each other and talk out difficult questions?
