Hello all,

I haven't been on 7Sage that long, and I am in the process of completing the core curriculum. That said, I am finished with the Foundations portion, so I am moving onto the LR and RC sections of the curriculum. I plan to take my first LSAT in October, but I am wondering how I should go about studying. I hope to take my first PT (not counting my diagnostic) this Friday even though I am not finished with the CC. It seems to be the case that I am pressed for time and need to drill and take PTs before I finish the CC. So, I am basically doing CC, Drills, and PTs all at once, which I know is unorthodox.

Is this problematic? Am I not pursuing a proper study schedule/structure? Has anyone done this and has it worked for them?

My diagnostic was around a 145, and a majority of the time I had to fill in random answers as I ran out of time. This diagnostic PT also included LG, which were not intuitive for me one bit. I am aiming on a 160 - 163 and plan to apply to Law Schools in the Fall of 2025 for the school year of Fall 2026. I am not concerned with eventually attaining the score I want in a matter of a year, but I am more so concerned with rushing through my first LSAT since it's coming up and I don't have much time.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks everyone.

I take a PT every Saturday. The first one I took was a 143 (average for first time esp after only 3 weeks of studying) but I just took my second one and score horribly, I honestly feel embarrassed saying I scored lower than a 143.

What do I do going forward? Does this happen to anyone else? Do I use my analytics page to see what I need to work on?

I just feel really hopeless. I've been studying ~3.5 hours a day, and my exam is in 9 weeks. Thoughts?

Take a minute to answer this question in the poll before continuing. This question is EVIL!!!! It may not seem so at first, but allow me to unpack the various tricks they use to make a rather simple question very tricky.

I initially picked A, and ill explain my reasoning behind it. I read first that this is an inferrence statement, so immediately my mind is looking to fill in a logical hole. As I scan through the passage, my mind comes to this, "Why is it necessary to not build an incinerator to prevent waste? What if the incinerator is not used? What about other methods of disposal?" Then I see answer A, "All of the city's trash that is not recycled goes into the incinerators." This feels great! This fills in a hole in my mind about the waste, and clearly makes this argument complete. Trash either is recycled or put in the incinerator, so lets not build an incinerator. This is a great answer for a support/strengthen question, and it feeeeeels like it completes the logic of the argument. However, this one is wrong! Not only does it retread the ground of what happens to recycling when an incinerator is rebuilt(making this statement unnecessary), no where does the argument support this!!!! DON'T FORGET THE QUESTION STEM!!! We are looking for something we could logically conclude from the passage above, not looking to fix the passage in any way. Once you remember that, the question is obviously wrong.

The other dangerous thing about this question is that the answer, D, looks awful. It uses very, very strong language of CANNOT and ANY. It uses the exact same language of the passage, which usually indicates a wrong answer. It elaborates on only one premise, instead of the whole passage, and it ignores the conclusion. Terrible!!! However, if you read it carefully, its pretty easy to prove. If the city is to avoid(avoid is a rather low bar) wasting resources, huge amounts of trash cannot be burned in any city incinerator. Looking at the rest of the passage, this is clear from the burn = waste. Some burning = some waste, so to avoid waste we avoid burning. Simple!

This one is correct, but it takes dodging a lot of traps to get to it. Be careful! The LSAT creators are clever and will lay many traps to stop you!

Analytics error

Any idea why the Questions Table section of the Analytics pages says "No LSAT PrepTests scored yet. Score some LSAT PrepTests to see analytics on this page." right below the list of my 29 completed and scored PrepTests?

Low GPA

Hi. I have a lower undergrad gpa (3.4) and am aiming for top 35-ish range of law schools. I know I need my lsat to be in the high 160s and I think this is doable, but i'm extremely worried about the gpa. I am 2 years out of (a semi-prestigious) school. Any suggestions?

Salaam I was just wondering if there are any Muslims who are planning to take the LSAT this fall and would love to be in a study group together that meets regularly. Message me or comment on this post so I can see how many people are interested and then I can create a groupchat or we can be study buddies.

Edit:

Thank you all for responding! Here is the link to slack I created

PS: I am a sister so if you don't feel comfortable with that, that's okay! I'm just trying to create a muslim community for anyone who is planning on taking the lsat this fall.

Latest Update:

Due to popular demand we decided to move over to discord. Here’s the link for that:

Thanks again for showing interest and inshallah we will get the scores that we want!

Hi guys,

I'm applying this upcoming application cycle, and I have a question regarding LORs. Do I need to wait until the applications officially open, to submit my recommender information via the LSAC website? Or can I submit sooner than that? To specify, I mean when you fill out the recommender information and submit it via LSAC using the CAS system. I'm assuming a link gets sent to them where they can submit their letters? I just don't want to send the link too soon and it not work. Is it safer to just submit the recommender information once applications are officially open? I hope this made sense!

Hi everyone, when I registered for the August LSAT I selected Friday as my preferred test date. However, I was just scheduled for work this day. Does anyone know how I can select the saturday day instead? Do I do this when they send out the email to select your day/time? Help please thank you!

I'm looking for members who'd like to join a small-sized online / offline study group.

Hope LSAT takers with ample experiences of studying LSAT and getting at least over 160 would join the group.

I plan to take timed PT at least once or twice a week together (preferably on Saturdays) to practice PTs under a test-day focus and environment.

Details on how the study group will operate can be subject to change, following group discussions.

If anyone is interested, please send me a message.
