Hi all, I'm wondering if anyone who qualified for a fee waiver here and through LSAC has been told that their fee waiver will not transfer to the new site and that they will have to reapply and reenroll in the fee waiver program in order to use the new site at a reduced rate? I have the fee waiver and as a low income, 1st gen applicant it has been a life saver, I have already spent thousands on study for this exam and 7 sage's fee waiver + recycled test prep books allowed me to spend time more time studying and less time worry about how to afford to do it!

I emailed an admin to see about getting onto the new site and was told "We've made a few changes to our fee waiver program. While there isn't a way to directly transfer your fee waiver access to the new site, I'd be glad to help you re-enroll." the admin then said that the reduced cost would be higher than the previous waiver program. I find it a bit unethical that 7 sage would change their policy on the waiver programs mid subscription for those who already have it, its like we have to choose between keeping our waiver or having an enhanced learning experience with the new site... the issue isn't the money here because it is still reduced but again, applying to law school is extremely expensive, waivers exist so as to not bar people who can't afford it from trying to apply. Everyone situation is different and these are extremely challenging times, making this sort of change mid year, mid subscription feels really unfair and inconsiderate.

Has anyone had a different experience with this or can someone direct me to an admin I can speak to about this more? mostly just venting here but really disappointed in 7 sage rn and wondering if I should continue elsewhere

Hi All, I'm stuck in a mid-160s plateau with a goal of breaking into the 170s. If you're in the same boat and want to meet remotely maybe once per week to work through some 4 and 5 star questions that were particularly hard for you, comment and I'll dm to get a study group started. Personally, I'm hoping to get better at pattern recognition in answer choices and fully understanding why a wrong answer is wrong. Thanks!

I'm running into a situation where I get most of the questions that require formal logic right, but only after taking a good 5 minutes mapping out the logic in the stimulus. If I don't go through this exercise I need to guess the answer most of the time (unless the logic is as straightforward as a couple simple if/then statements). I will obviously not have the luxury of all of this time on the test. Any tips on how to get faster at mapping out formal logic?

PT Blind Review

Just took a practice test and proceeded to the Blind Review after.

How representative is the score of the Blind Review to my overall success of taking that PT? Should I expect growth to that score?

i have been blind reviewing at 162 but averaging around 153 for my actual exam, I'm honestly super discouraged, because I know I can do better in the 'real' test but the time conditions feel so heavy. I'm suppose to take my test in august before my senior year starts, and since I'm aiming for 2026 law school my applications need to be in relatively soon. if anyone has any advice or encouragement I'd be very grateful. Im not giving up, I just need some more hope.

Blind Review Confusion

Hey yall, just subscribed to 7sage. I wanted to do a practise section with a show answer option to warm up, but this function is unavailable. I understand that this is because of the emphasis on the blind review model which i think will be beneficial. I havent been able to find a proper explanation of how blind review works on this site tho. where might I find an explanation? are you able to do blind review for practise sections or just full tests? is there an option to toggle it? how does BR work? does it automatically take you to a blind review part following the section?

I'm trying to work now to get my RC score down to the -5 range, and I'm drilling a lot on the passage types im bad at, and most of the hard or hardest passages I'll get 2 or 3 wrong, and on the easier ones, 1 or 2 maybe, if I get a good selection of passages its likely I;ll be in that -6 range. EXCEPT for spotlight passages; something about spotlight passages just doesn't click for me, there's a majority 1 star or 2 star passages where I'll get straight up 4 out of 6 or 7 ACs wrong, and I don't understand why, does anyone have any tips? I'm confident my LR will be at -4/5 for August/Sept LSAT, but if I can't get my RC out of the -7/8 zone I won't be able to get a 165

Midwest Study Group

Looking to either start or join a study group. I'm in the STL area, but am open to an online group as well. Feel free to drop a comment if you're interested or point me in the right direction if there's already something similar to what I'm looking for!

I’m based outside the U.S., currently prepping for law school apps (Fall 2025 cycle), and already took my first official test. I’d love to connect more directly with international test takers. If you're also studying for a retake, want to share strategies, or just need mutual accountability comment if you're in!

The Role of a conditional statement: HELP

The question below made me confused because I thought the conditional statement "the painters must have needed to eat the sea animals populating the waters north of Norway if they were to make the long journey to and from the islands" was a fact because there is a Sufficent Condition that triggers a Necessary Condition there for it must be true. So when I learned A was wrong, I was confused because the conditional statement created a "rule." So, I need help. How do you disprove a conditional?

THE QUESTION:

Recently discovered prehistoric rock paintings on small islands off the northern coast of Norway have archaeologists puzzled. The predominant theory about northern cave paintings was that they were largely a description of the current diets of the painters. This theory cannot be right, because the painters must have needed to eat the sea animals populating the waters north of Norway if they were to make the long journey to and from the islands, and there are no paintings that unambiguously depict such creatures.

Each of the following, if true, weakens the argument against the predominant theory about northern cave paintings EXCEPT:

A. Once on these islands, the cave painters hunted and ate land animals.

B. Parts of the cave paintings on the islands did not survive the centuries.

C. The cave paintings that were discovered on the islands depicted many land animals.

D. Those who did the cave paintings that were discovered on the islands had unusually advanced techniques of preserving meats.

E. The cave paintings on the islands were done by the original inhabitants of the islands who ate the meat of land animals

Salespeople always steer customers toward products from which they make their highest commissions, and all salespeople in major health stores work on commission. Hence, when you buy vitamin supplements in a major health store, you can be sure that the claims the salespeople make about the quality of the products are inaccurate.

Obviously this is an ad hominem. I know that. But we are taught to apply a two step test: descriptively accurate and does it describe the flaw.

the right answer choice?

infers that some claims are inaccurate solely on the basis of the source of those claims

translation: 1-99 of claims are inaccurate, solely on the basis of the source of those claims.

how is this descriptively accurate? the argument assumes because sales people have specific incentives, salespeople are not telling the full truth.

the argument never says SOME claims are inaccurate, instead it says THE CLAIMS ARE INACCURATE. how the hell am I supposed to see the invisible some? Also the argument never says they are liars because they are sales people, it says it's because they work on commission.

someone tell me how I am wrong. I feel like im getting punished for being detail oriented.
