I am applying to a school that does not ask for a diversity statement or any other optional essay aside from a personal statement. There is an addendum section. Is it ok to add a diversity statement here or should it be left for GPA and LSAT explanations.
Hi everyone. I've practiced with every single RC passage in the past 7 months (even the old exams from the '90s that have to be unselected), since that is undoubtedly my weakness on the test, particularly dense science and law passages (I took Oct and Jan LSATS and experienced this on the real exam for sure...). I've also found the RC on my real tests to be more difficult than many of the passages we have available to study, if anyone else has had that thought, I'd really appreciate hearing how you've been studying to prepare for that!
I'm curious what anyone else in this situation has done, if you have any advice for addressing this gap in performance, etc. I'm going to go through all the ones I have with missed q's first, and just refresh for new passages if they seem too familiar, but very open to suggestions or if anyone may want to ask eachother questions about difficult Science Direct articles, etc, anything like that that might help.
Thanks to everyone at 7Sage.
Hello everyone. I am thinking of subscribing to the total prep intensive course. I noticed today that Ryan Towmey and Eric Wang are teaching the course. Can anyone confirm their experience with either or both of them?
Is there a way to blind review on an imported exam?
Just took an exam on Lawhub and imported it, tried to blind review it on 7sage so all the stats are in here, but there's not an option to?
Or am i just missing how to?
if not, please add this feature!!! Blind review on imported exam!!!
Is anyone from the Triangle area of North Carolina interested in forming a study group that is flexible to meet online or in person? I’m taking the February test, as well as the April one, so if anyone wants to partner up, let me know.
Aside from group study and accountability, it would be nice to also have it function as a local support group that can help ease the stress, or just to have another person who recognizes the source of your struggles. I’m hoping to find a balance between studying and support with others in the area who are also going through the same journey.
Hi! I took the January LSAT and got a 160 but I am really aiming to get as close to a 175 as possible (even though that might not be the most realistic goal). I’m not able to take the June LSAT and I will be applying to law school next application cycle, so I am currently planning on taking the LSAT again in April. However, I am feeling worried that I will not be able to see the score increase that I want, and I don’t know if my study plan is the most effective.
Currently I study every day for about 2 hours Monday through Friday, and I do timed drills/sections and review all wrong answers, alternating LR and RC everyday. I also take a full test on Saturdays. But I don’t know how much this is helping.
I would love any insight on study plans and if you think my goal is possible! Thank you!
What is the purpose of the feature that allows you to predict your score on practice tests and sections? Does it have a tangible impact on anything in particular?
Hey! If anyone is studying in the Ann Arbor area (MI) and wants to get together please feel free to reach out! I find it's really helpful to talk through questions sometimes, or just work in the same area for motivation!
Hi all,
I received my. B.A. in Politics recently and graduated magna cum laude with a 3.804 GPA on my transcript. The school I attended did graded on a "F" to "A" grading scale; there were no "A+" meaning the highest GPA was 4.0 and you could not possibly obtain overa 4.0. During an internship at my local SAO, the DA told me a 3.8 was a low GPA for law school, considering many will have 4.0+. How do I explain that in my LSAT applications? I ONLY got Bs to As on my transcript, but still feel like this may not be good enough. I know it's not a bad GPA, but it's not exceptional. In order to afford law school w/o additonal loans (I have some from undergrad but am under a PAYE repayment plan), I am hoping to receive at least 75% of tutition covered, so I am working to get into the high 160s-low 170s. Will not having a exceptional GPA possibly hurt my chances? I looked at the CAS GPA calculator and there's no grade scale that fits the grading criteria of my undergraduate curriculum, as the letter grade scale goes up to A+. I'm not able to see what the exact percentage I ended a class with was. I appreciate any and all advice and thank you in advance.
Going to be completely transparent, as an application, I have no idea where I stand. LSAT:146, GPA:3.70, plenty of work experience throughout college, current job I work I deal largely with the legal team and contracts. Going to apply with this score and hope for the best. Wish me luck, Hopefully I can come back to this post as someone who was able to get an acceptance to provide hope to anyone who feels like a bad LSAT score is the end of the world.
How do i add old questions to the drill question bank?
Hi all! I live in the suburbs of New York (Rockland County) and am looking for a study buddy who also wants to hold each other accountable and ensure that we both stay on track and don't feel discouraged. I'm very open to anyone in Manhattan as well.
I plan to take the exam again in August which gives me 7 months of studying. I think that's ample time to exercise my brain muscles and get a much better score than my previous two scores. If you're also on the same timeline, I'd love connect (especially those who are in their early 30s+).
I'm taking the LSAT for the first time at a testing center on Feb. 7th. I am looking into it and realizing that the rules at these testing centers are pretty strict (thought it was much more casual). In the video the LSAC gives for the testing center tutorial, it seems like there is some level of security and a prohibition for bringing in certain items. I have not gotten a definitive answer on this, however: can I bring coffee into the LSAT at a testing center? Does anyone who has taken the test know? I perform better in practice testing while drinking coffee, funny as it may be, so it would be a shame if I couldn't. Please inform! 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?
Hi Guys, I work full time and study and I find it hard sometimes to be able to dedicate a lot of time each day, only because I cannot get myself past brain fog and inability to focus. Does anyone have any tips and tricks that have worked for them?
I'm not sure if it's ok for me to ask this but does anyone have a chart guide explaining in short what to look for in the majority of cases for each question? I know this is like something general but let me give you an example.
Lately I feel like I've been doing very good in weakening questions with this "formula"
Weakening questions--> find another good explanation from the options
So, that's kind of what i'm curios about. Does anyone have some guide of that nature they wanna share ?
Is it possible to change the appearance of the drills to not the "test-like" mode? I remember 7sage used to have a different appearance for practice questions.
Hi Everyone!
My name is Sujene; I'm a new grad from UCLA, and I'm currently working full time while studying for the LSAT. Most of my friends aren't pre-law, so it's been a bit more difficult to find a group to relate to.
Would love to find someone or a group of people in the area to study with, particularly on weekends. I still live near the campus, so if you're in the Westwood/Century City/Culver City/etc etc area, please feel free to reach out!
If you're also working full time that would be ideal, but I'm still 100% open to anyone who's just in the area and studying.
I'm aiming for a 175+ and am extremely determined to do so. I know that it'll probably take me quite some time, so I'm likely going to take the test around June or August, maybe even later depending on my progress.
Feel free to reach out here or on Instagram! @sujenek
January scores released today and I bumped my score up 22 points from my diagnostic in early October 2025!!! The reading comp on January was tough which I think drug me down but overall am happy with the results! Thanks to 7sage for the studying help...couldn't have done it without you!
For reference I studied about two to three hours a day after my 9-5 M-T (I'm a legal assistant at my county's prosecuting attorney's office). On Fridays and Saturday it was more like 4 hours. Took a PT every Saturday starting at four weeks before the test.
Is there a way to see the timeline of improvement in analytics for drilling? For example I would like to see when I improved from 47% accuracy in Weaken questions to 65% accuracy. That way I can keep better track of what areas I improved on in each study session. Currently I am copying down my percentage progression by hand but if it were a digital feature it would be much more convenient!
I have a 164 on the LSAT, I'm a URM (Native American), I have a 3.88 GPA, and I have very strong softs. What do you think my chances are at Minnesota or Notre Dame?
A bit of a vulnerable discussion post. I was wondering if there's anyone else that on multiple real LSATs has scored lower than their PT average by a significant amount, and how they were able to overcome this? I consistently score 17mid-high, and cannot break out of the 160s on the real tests. What might the issues be? I'm always struggling to finish but only on the real test. SOS :(
I never performed well on my practice tests to be honest. My best score that I got was a 162 and I was averaging around the 150’s. I just got a 171 on my lsat I took which is up 8 points from my first one in November. I did that increase in around one month as, if I’m being honest, didn’t study much before I got my November score back on the 28th. Prior to that test I only had about 3.5 weeks to study.
Ask me any questions you like! If you are nervous about your practice test scores, there’s definitely still hope for you to get a better score than you think!
