My conditional reasoning and diagramming skills are usually solid. I often do it the same way it's done in the LR lesson videos.
However, looking at my wrong answer list, a significant chunk of the questions are tagged with conditional reasoning! This suggests to me that my basic cond R skills are alright, but I get stumped by the ways the LSAT tries to trick us, especially on level 4 and level 5 questions.
How can I improve? Where can I get practice with advanced conditional reasoning, and why is the LSAT so good at making cond R difficult?
Hi, friends! Just moved to Seattle and working towards a Fall LSAT. Would love to meet other folks in town and set up an in-person study group. :)
I took the LSAT in June and scored a little lower than desired, so I am retaking in Sep. I had studied Jan-June, with about 10 weeks of practice blocks. I now only have 4 fresh full PTs available to take, but at least 7 PT "slots" (ie saturdays between now and Sep test).
What is the best approach here? Should I save all 4 for the weeks directly leading up to Sep? Should I alternate? What should I do in weeks without a fresh PT (take old old fresh PTs, create my own PTs with 4 sections pulled from partially fresh PTs, etc)?
Any feedback would be helpful!
I would be eternally grateful for a live class on a super hard science passage like Basins of Attraction or C-4 Photosynthesis! It would be like an early Christmas treat for me!
Hi everyone!
I have recently hit a wall with the RC sections and can't seem to increase my accuracy even with extensive practice. I was wondering what others have done or do to increase their accuracy, like tips, methods, or creating new ways of thinking. Hopefully this makes sense; any help would be appreciated!
Hi everyone, started studying for the LSAT about a week ago and I’m looking for a study partner in the London area.
The journey to law school is already challenging, and coming from the UK makes the LSAT process feel even more daunting. I’m aiming to take the LSAT in November, so I’d love to connect with someone who is also preparing for the exam and wants to stay motivated and accountable throughout the process.
If you’re interested in studying together, sharing resources, or meeting up for practice sessions, feel free to reach out!
Hey, like the tittle states I will be travelling for 2 weeks due to the loss of a grandparent to a foreign country and I am having trouble conveying my worries to my parents that my score will decrease significantly when I return. I will return 2 weeks before the September LSAT but I will also be starting my courses for the Fall and working on campus. My first question would be, is there anything better to do then just downloading practice tests and trying to do sections when I have free time. Secondly, what is the best way to wear off the rust of not having been able to study consistently for those 2 weeks before the LSAT? Thank you for any advice!
Can’t recommend Jen highly enough. She is very experienced and knowledgeable about the admissions process and is helpful, responsive and very helpful. 5/5 stars!
Hello! I've been studying semi- consistently since Mid-Late May after I got my 160 diagnostic. Since then all my PTs have been around this range and my best one was 163. My goal is 168+ by the September LSAT and 172+ by October LSAT (Ideally 170+ by September). When I do study its usually for around 2 hours.
I have 2 questions:
Are my goal scores realistic?
What can I do to get there by the deadline?
Thank you guys in advance !
Hello! I've been studying for the LSAT for about 3 months, and the last month has been the most consistent (10-15 hours of studying a week). I started with a 156 diagnostic score on PT 158 in April. Since then, my score has only gotten worse. My most recent PT Score was a 151 with a 164 BR score. On drills, I'm getting consistently higher scores, and my confidence is increasing, but with my goal of a 172, I'm not sure if I'll make it by my current September Test date. The questions I have are: how many hours a week do I need to be studying to get my desired score? Do I need to push my test date back further? And any practice tips based on the info above?
Thanks!
Looking for a LR study buddy to meet on Monday and Wednesdays from 6-7:30 pm EST to review questions we missed and to "teach each other aloud." Ideally someone with ADHD would be great. We will assign homework that we need to have completed the day of the meeting. Looking for someone missing -2 to -5. Please message me or comment below if interested. Also looking for one person that is disciplined and dedicated!
I took the test in November of 2025 and got a 171, highest pt in the lead up was 176. Retaking for September; got a 171 last week on my first full pt since I started studying again in June. Today, I got a 166. I’m freaking out a bit— should I push to October?
Incoming law students at the University of Chicago will be barred from using phones and laptops in required first-year courses in a bid to curb their AI usage under a new AI policy.
I've been consistently PT-ing from 165-168 over the past few weeks. Any tips to break into 169/170? I'm just getting the tricky questions wrong now but they add up over the course of a few sections. Any input is appreciated!
justice for KJD students 🥺 I'm class of 2028 and can't set it to that
Hey! I'm studying for the September LSAT right now. Since I'm trying to break from 170-171 to 175+ at this point, I know it's all about being extremely up front with myself about my mistakes. But I am always SO ANXIOUS after I finish a pt! I am DESPARATE to know how I did! Part of this is probably because I used to exclusively take PTs on LawHub, which doesn't let you blind review, so I got used to seeing my score immediately.
Basically, I have two questions:
How bad is it to "peek" at your score before blind reviewing? Just knowing the score, not knowing how I did on a given section?
Is there a way to turn off the thing that tells you why 7Sage circled an individual question for BR? I sometimes can't help but hover over the little pink "i" to see if it says "you answered this question incorrectly. I like that 7Sage circles things, but I would love if I didn't know why. If that's not possible, I'll just become more self-disciplined.
Any help would be appreciated!
I panicked, but I'm honestly not upset about the 162. But I'd be lying if I said JJ Redick wasn't in my head screaming at me in the locker room
Hi! I'm scheduled to take the September test, and i'm currently just beginning timed practice (1 section a day, alternating days between LR and RC + blind review + reviewing wrong answers). I'm scoring in the low 150s with the timer and high 150s to 162 with BR - for both LR and RC. I'm wondering if anyone has any advice to break into the 160s, and whether i have enough time to get to a 160 by September?
i have been getting -4 on individual LR sections but this PT completely upended my expectations. I even got a couple of the "easy" questions wrong. how do i fix this?????? Did anyone else also find PT140 to be particularly difficult?
Hi my name is De'Angela! I just recently graduated from Texas Tech University and started studying for the LSAT in May. I plan on taking the exam in October. I study almost every day, and I would love to have a group of people to motivate each other on the hard days and meet up when we can for a review day to help each other out!
Let me know if you're interested! :)
I found out yesterday that I got accepted into my dream school with a scholarship. I am beyond thrilled and pleasantly surprised that I was accepted. I will be starting law school this fall in August!
I post this as a word of encouragement to those who may be doubting themselves at the moment. My LSAT journey was not easy but looking back I am so happy that I went through everything that I did.
With a diagnostic score of 133 I knew that my journey to law school would be difficult. I took my first LSAT in September of 2025 after studying for nearly a year. I did not score well at all and my plans to apply early were crushed. I was no longer confident that I would even get to attend law school.
I decided to get back on the saddle and change my study plan to 7 Sage from LSAT demon and studied since the September LSAT all the way to this past June. I signed up and took the LSAT again at the last minute in June. I knew it was a long shot because the one school I wanted to go to was accepting applications only through July 15th as my timeline was cutting it extremely close with classes starting in just a few weeks.
I performed much better on my June LSAT and I wearily submitted my application July 3rd. I found out yesterday that I got in!
I give all the glory and praise to God, and I give a special thanks to 7 Sage for helping me achieve my dreams.
Good luck to everyone! YOU CAN DO HARD THINGS.
I'm in Northern Colorado and would love a study group / study buddy for a fall LSAT. Goal is November 2026!
Left is 7Sage's tester and right is LawHub's tester:
My cold Diagnostic 2 summers ago was a 158 but I put the test down and didn't study until I finished undergrad this past May to focus on my GPA. Since graduation I have completed the 7sage core curriculum and done about 2 weeks worth of drills which included 3 timed sections (2LR and 1 RC). Todays test is definitely a performance at the top of my range since my drills have been averaging -3.75 per section but regardless I feel good about it especially considering two wifi interruptions. My question is this, with as much time to study as I need since im about to start a 2 year masters, what would be a good goal score to set for myself if I want to go to the best law school possible? Also, with my final UGPA of 3.92, what ranked schools should I start looking at as my targets reaches and safety's? Note: I have tier 2 and 3 softs as I was a highly ranked division 1 student athlete at an Ivy and server in local politics. Thanks!
