Hey All,

I was studying this spring for the LSAT and feeling pretty confident. I will be taking the test in October 2019. My practice thus far has all been in paper and I know the LSAT has switched to digital only. I know LSAC has 3 free digital LSATs on their site but I was wondering if there are any other places I take digital practice LSATs? I am only interested in taking the tests, I have done enough coursework and I am feeling quite good about my scores, I just want to feel a bit more comfortable with the using a tablet to take the test.

Thanks!

Hi! I took the June 5th test and got a 159, I was averaging around a 163 before the test.

I signed up for the July 15th test but I took a 3 week break and then couldnt get back up to my regular above 160 scores. So I withdrew and didnt take the test. The fact that I couldnt bring my score back up made me think that I have to review foundational information.

I want to take the test again, and would start studying around September 1st. I'll be working part time around 15 hrs a week and would like to get a165 or above if I retake. I think i have an OK foundational knowledge but would want to revisit material.

How do I know which test to aim for and which 7sage package to use? Should I combine this with any of the Power Score bibles?

How long does it take to get through 7sage’s lessons/course material?

Thank you!

Hello 7Sagers!

Recently, we have noticed that quite a few of you have been having trouble with our videos, especially with the videos not loading and the "four dots" constantly giving a buffering signal, but never actually loading.

We have been able to reproduce the issue ourselves privately, but so far that hasn't been enough data for us to pinpoint exactly what's going on. We're calling on everyone who has had the problem to please let us know, especially with the following details:

what device/app you were using, and what OS

what country you are currently in

when does it occur? anything "noteworthy" happening?

We also welcome any screenshots or screencasts.

Either post here or email studentservice@7sage.com.

Thanks everyone!

I just completed all of the core curriculum and started taking timed practice tests. Throughout the core curriculum I rarely got individual questions/problem sets wrong, but as soon as I try to take a practice test, I panic and everything seems a lot more difficult. Is this something that others have experienced and that just gets better with taking more full practice tests or is it indicative that I have some sort of gap in my base knowledge (aka should I focus on core curriculum material or hope that I get better with just taking more practice tests and increasing my endurance)?

Hi All,

After researching and looking through previous discussions, I still have a question about requesting that a transcript be sent to LSAC. My undergrad institution uses National Student Clearinghouse. I selected LSAC as the recipient with electronic delivery. The next page asks for the recipient delivery information, specifically an email address. I've looked all over the LSAC website and cannot find anything about providing an email address for National Student Clearinghouse. Any insight?? Thanks!

I have noticed recently that I almost always take a long time on the first game. For instance, if 7Sage indicates that the game should be completed in 7 minutes, then it would take me 2 minutes longer. Regardless of the game type, this has happened both during warm ups and full length PTs. I’m either taking too long to diagram or have to refer back to the game board multiple times when answering questions (less confident?) This in turn messes up my timing for the rest of the section where I feel rushed.

Does this happen to anyone else? And what would be a good strategy to fix it?

I took a semester abroad in undergrad. The classes were pass/no pass for credit, but grades were given (C- or better was pass) My transcript marks the p/np but does not have the letters. For my application to law school, should I get a transcript from the program itself to get those letters or is my undergrad sufficient?

I have yet to solve one LG on my own even without any time restrictions. I do very well with LR and RC, but for some reason LGs have been beating the crap out of me. It is difficult for me to fully comprehend how I should initially set up my game board, better yet make any inferences consistently. Mind you, I am still in progress with the LG section of the CC—but am nearly finished—but regardless, it has been totally disheartening for me.

How long did it take for you guys to fully grasp LG?

I'm not sure how exhaustive my resume should be. There's a six month gap in my work history in 2015 because I left my job in June for a position where I was terminated in August. I was hired by my current employer that following December. What should I do here?

Additionally, I left school and work in 2012 due to illness. I returned to work in 2014 and finally returned to school in 2016 where I eventually finished my undergrad in 2018. Again I'm not sure if this is something I should explain.

I can't decide whether to apply for the binding UVa early decision... I have a 168 LSAT and 3.95 GPA so I am just under the LSAT median and just over the GPA median. I think it is my top choice, but also it is so hard to know when you haven't visited, which I won't be able to.... My main concern is the financial aspect because since it is binding, you are going regardless of whether they decide to offer any scholarship. Does anyone have thoughts or advice? I don't know anything about early decision

I usually take 1 preptest and BR everyday with an occasional 1 or 2 day break, and was wondering what other 7Sagers preptesting and BR scheduling is like. Sometimes I feel like i'm doing too much, but it might just be relative.

Hi everyone,

On Wednesday, August 21, at 9:00 PM ET, I'll host a webinar with Stephen Brown, the Assistant Dean of Enrollment at Fordham. Dean Brown will give us a short presentation on financing your legal education, and then I'll ask him some of the questions you're dying to know:

  • What do you base your awards of merit-based financial aid on?
  • How do you increase your merit-based financial aid?
  • What goes into your admission process, anyway?
  • You’ll get a chance to ask your questions at the end.

    :warning: You’ll have to register for this webinar in advance.

    :cookie: After the webinar, we’ll award one attendee a free Edit Once (see https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/enroll).

    :warning: The webinar will be recorded, and we may post it on our site or on YouTube. We may also share the audio on our podcast.

    → Please register for the webinar here: https://zoom.us/webinar/register/WN_D-uyJXiLSfSmTU3EEyg6yg

    After registering, you will receive a confirmation email containing information about joining the webinar.

    If you want to ask a question, you should connect via a computer instead of calling in. We also recommend that you join the webinar a few minutes early and test your microphone.

    Hey everyone! Quick question, how do I pin an entire game? When I review, I have the option to pin individual questions for the game and even star the explanation but I can't seem to figure out how to pin the entire game. I want the entire game to be pinned for when I make problem sets to drill. Thank you in advance! :smile:

    Does it work well together with the content in the CC for 7Sage?

    Should I do one before the other? I'm about to start the CC for LR soon with Ultimate+.

    I've got plenty of time since I'm registered for the April 2020 LSAT.

    Thank you!

    Does anybody have any advice for practicing logic games when you have spare time at the doctor's office, in between meetings, etc.?

    Whether that be completing a full problem set off my phone or writing out a quick diagram, I am hoping for some suggestions as to how to practice without my laptop on me!

    Thank you :)

    Does anybody know when all of the video explanations should be up for preptest 87 (June 2019)? Only the logic game videos are up. I would like to take this test before September.
