With a week left until the June exam, I’m wondering what consensus exists here in the wisdom of tapering off the study schedule? Like a marathoner, I believe that while it’s certainly unwise to abandon studying altogether this last week, there may be some benefit to tapering off slightly.

Hello, I was that LSAC is saying that if you register for both july and sept, do well in july and don't want to rewrite they will refund your sept. registration .

This to me seems like a better strategy if I need to rewrite then waiting until Nov. You won't get the score report until August16 for the july lsat.

What does everyone think ? Are those few weeks between july- sept lsat a game changer for your lsat score ? I've heard of people plateauing for the lsat --- below is what lsac sent

"If you are registered for the July test date as well as the September test date, you may request a full refund of your September LSAT registration fee if you are satisfied with your July score.

You may request a full refund of your September registration by submitting a signed request to LSACrefunds@lsac.org. Please include full refund for September in the Subject line. The signed refund request must be received by August 14, 2018 in order to be processed."

There used to be an option to grade your test right when you open up the app. Anyone’s know where that went? Also can I find that option on the website?

Currently sitting at -4 average on LR and striving to break this barrier and improve to -2 by July. After BR, I usually end up with -1 or -0. Typically, the questions I get wrong are the ones that I skip because of time constraints (usually 3 on the last page) and one or two from earlier in the section that I didn't have time to review. There is not much consistency in the question types that I miss early in the section.

Any tips for improving my timing? Should I drill the first 15 problems of older PTs with a 10 minute time limit? Confidence drills? Video taping full LR sections to see where I waste the most time? What methods have worked best for you guys when it comes to reaching full LR potential?

Hello, I am 48. A career changer and considering using this forum to study....I am trying to review the logic games for free before I commit to a purchase. I can't seem to find any answer to this question: Does this review course require the purchase of a book to go along with the videos? Or, is the information such as a text, included? Any information would be greatly appreciated

Can anyone talk about a logical equivalency to this phrase? Not "IF", but is it equivalent to "only if"? Or how should I interpret this phrase in LR questions - I've come across it a few times in the late 60s tests.

How do you differentiate between the context and the premise? Do you always have to have a premise indicator in order to have a premise?

I am viewing the lecture videos on both Chrome and Firefox and don't seem to have the variable playback speed? Any possible fixes to this?

Hi 7Sage!

I've seen quite a few posts on here and Reddit advising that the week or two before the exam is spent getting in a nice, relaxing routine so that you're rested and at your best on test day.

Which is great, if you are taking the test somewhere that allows you to get in a relaxing routine.

I am taking the test in a country I've never been to (it's the closest testing center to where I currently live!). The two weeks before the exam will be spent doing some really intense travel that I absolutely couldn't get out of (Indonesia -> Malaysia -> Vietnam -> Singapore, none on very long flights though, as I'm already in the region!). I'm in Singapore, where I'm taking the exam, for two days before the test itself, but that's not exactly a great deal of time to get in a routine.

Given that I'm going to be hopping around from one place to another, with waking hours and diet varying pretty substantially, does anyone have tips on how I should approach test day?

It's going to be hard to do full timed PTs on this schedule. I can do timed sections, hopefully.

Currently scoring 170-174, and aiming for a 173+ on the exam, so mostly looking towards perfecting LG and maintaining other sections as I skate into these next 20 days.

What do I do?

I have taken three prep tests and have the following results:

#1 152 - BR 162

#2 157 - BR 164

#3 157 - BR 169

Clearly the results are encouraging and I am improving. But is there a takeaway to be made if my BR is getting better but my score results didnt between test 2 and 3? I think it means that under pressured time constraints, I seem to perform lower than my potential. Is there anything else that can be deduced? If not, what should I focus on to get better on the initial test. Or does this get solved with more PT and more time? Thanks!

So my cold-diagnostic was a 151. Just finished the CC and took my first timed PT after completing it and I scored a 156. I know I messed up in RC by running out of time on the last passage, and one LG game threw me off which I can work on. I also am a bit rusty on LR since I haven't drilled LR for about 3 weeks while I finished LG and RC core curriculum stuff, so I missed a -9 on each LR section.

I got about 7 weeks to go before the July LSAT, if I just drill LR and LG while sprinkling in some RC, do y'all think I could realistically crack 160 by July/September? I plan on drilling LR 3 times a week and LG twice a week (which I can switch up depending on how well I'm doing in either).

Is there a breakdown of how often a certain logic game type comes up? I was able to find one online but it was through Powerscore and didn't seem to use the same lingo as 7sage does (i.e. couldn't find out often spatial sequencing game questions come up on average, etc)

Thanks! (I'm new to 7sage btw and I'm taking the September LSAT)

Already have Legally Blonde down :)

and can you bring it to the LSAT?

Hi Everyone,

I am registered for the June test. I was just reading the email they sent us on May 11 more closely, and I noticed that the photograph must be taken 6 months ago. I uploaded the photo around August of last year I think, so more than 6 months ago. The photo complies with all other requirements. My face also hasn't changed at all since then, no weight gain/loss, same beard, etc. I am looking at the admission ticket and my online registration, and no where does it indicate when I uploaded the photo. So, based on these, I really don't know how the test center supervisors could find out. Should I just let it go? Or should I contact LSAC? I am afraid they would not allow me to re-upload it, especially since they sent us the email like two weeks before the deadline for uploading the photo. I am a dumbass! :(

I am trying to assess my readiness for the July exam, and want to know the range I should be scoring in if I want to get a 170 on the actual LSAT. I've heard people say +3 points from the score you are aiming for, but others say at least +5.

So I am 67, retired 2 years ago from a very satisfying career as a commercial interior architect with my own business, and I am ready to go down a new path in life. I have the benefit of a lot of lifetime learning experience, I can finally afford to go to school for the pleasure of learning, and I want to give back to the world around me. My idea is to get a law degree and then work for a larger firm on pro bono cases. I don't need the income (maybe they could give me insurance coverage or something), and I would be helping people or issues (maybe environmental) that really need it.

I took the 2007 test before I even signed up with 7Sage and got 152, and I am really benefiting from the course so far. I realize that I might not be qualified until I am in my early 70's, but that would still give me 10-15 years of helping people who really need it. I am in excellent health both mentally and physically.

When I was younger I worked full time while I finished my degree and I always wanted to be able to go to school for the pleasure of learning without the pressure of needing to support myself. From that point of view just going through the training and taking the LSAT is worth it on its own, because I am really enjoying the learning process. However, I would also like to be able to use what I learn.

Am I kidding myself into thinking I might have a viable path before me? I understand that most of you probably won't have much feedback for me because of the age difference, but all responses will be appreciated.

Hi Y'all,

So I am sure this has been discussed before but I am fairly new to the site so I have not seen it myself. So just to preface this post I have taken the LSAT twice (Scored in 150s both times) before taking this course. I did self-study for both so obviously I was doing something wrong and this course will hopefully rectify those mistakes.

Before I get too OT, I was just wondering what y'all did for your PT schedules? I am currently following the CC. Should I take PTs during the CC or should I wait until I have completed it to do them on my own? Also, how often should I take them? Once a week? Twice? And do you take them on the same day of the week or different days every time? I apologize for the multitude of questions but I am extremely curious as to what has worked/not worked for everyone else.

Thank you so much for your time!

So when the proctor says "Put your pencils down", can I pick up my watch and reset the time on it? Or do I have to wait until the next section begins before doing anything with my watch?

Hey guys,

I'm taking the June test in 3 weeks, but I am still struggling with LG. :(

I've already foolproofed 1-35, and did 36-60 twice. But when I took timed tests this week, I'm still missing 5-6 questions. Granted, I've improved a lot from just couple months ago, when I missed like 8-9 questions. But I do want to prep my LG as much as I can for the upcoming June test.

Do you have any suggestions for last minute drilling in my case? I'm planning to take 2 PT's a week also.

Thank you and happy studying for June takers :)

Hello my fellow 7sagers.

I need opinions/advice. so I have been completing the 7sage cirrculum as per usual - currently STILL in the must be true Logical resoning section. I want to the write the september or Nov. lsat and im feeling like I should have started logic games section by now.

DO you reccomend I continue following the cirriculum order - and slowly go through LR as I currently am, and start logic games when I get there? orrrrr what if I started that section of cirriculum too and alternated between LR and LG studying 2 hours LR and 2 hours LG. or LR one day and LG one day? or is that too much brain fuckery? I thought it would help prevent burnout from one section (LR)....and also get me ready for LG. i study 4 hours max daily.. :(

I just feel like im going through the cirriculum slower than most and panicking I wont have enough time to improve on LG. since it is already June & I totally suck at them. BLAH. I'm also struggling with Must be True section of LR - feeling quite discouraged to even move forward. :(

any suggestions with regards to studying both sections or staying on one .. i feel like im moving at the pace of a turtle...

or any advice for the discouragement I feel :( with MBT Q's & continuing the cirriculum regardless..

thank you all

you're the best :)

Hi 7sage community,

I've been studying for the LSAT for almost a year now. Here's my history:

I took a 2.5 month course with Testmasters summer 2017 and studied for the December LSAT, scored a 161

I started studying again in January for the February LSAT and scored a 163.

(now) I started studying again in April for this upcoming June LSAT.

My target is 168 minimum, best case is low 170s. So:

Thanks so much for your help! Minor stressing recently..

I would like to practice family law in the NJ/PA area....is t14 worth it for this type of practice if i dont get a substantial scholarship?

Could someone please attempt to explain how the answer choice is Must Be True. I've spent hours trying to figure this one out. and I am stuck.

Hey all,

I know many ppl use the Analytics feature to breakdown their LR sections and see which LR question types are giving them the most trouble.

Does anyone do this Question type analysis breakdown for RC questions?

I've realized I get a lot of the InferAuthorPerspective and strengthen/weaken and analogy RC questions wrong.

Do ppl look at which Question types for RC they constantly get wrong, and then try to improve on them?

Any advice for how to do that -- how to find which RC question types they have most trouble on -- and how to work on improving them?

Would love any advice/feedback/comments regarding this topic, and in general just how to review past RC mistakes, identify patterns in RC mistakes, and how to outline concrete steps to not make those mistakes/improve in RC. Thanks so much.
