Hello!

I've recently started to use 7sage to study for the LSAT. Im a rising junior in undergrad and do not know where to start. I plan on taking the LSAT sometime in the winter of 2024/25. I am also a first-gen student, so I feel like I have no guidance. I have read up on many LSAT reddit posts, but I am unsure if I should be "doing more" with studying. As of now, my current plan is to study for the whole summer and try to fit it into my academic schedule in the fall. How often should I be doing drills and prep tests? I am currently going through the foundations portion of the syllabus.

Anything helps!

Thank you :)

Should I take it?

Hello, I am contemplating a lot if I should take the June 2024 LSAT. I have started studying since Jan 2024 however my study schedule has not been consistent to the point that I still need 15 hrs left of the core curriculum and I have not been able to take any practice tests to see where I am at. I really want to get a high score at least 165 +. Should I wing it on the final chance I can do logic games or should I prep more for the August LSAT???

PT90.S4.Q22 - Disagreement

Hi, I just finished this practice test and was very confused about why the answer to this question is E.

The stem is asking which of the following, if true, most weakens the argument. The argument can be summarized by the following: if a medieval epistemologist believed something, then it belongs to the broader category of medieval epistemology and vice versa.

The correct answer is: "there is much debate as to which medieval thinkers, if any, were epistemologists." The answer I chose is (paraphrased): some medieval epistemologists had beliefs that contradicted those of other medieval epistemologists.

Who cares if the first one is true? It's true that there is a debate, not that there for certain are no medieval epistemologists. Whereas, if the answer I chose were to be true, it introduces a clear contradiction (where X and not X are true at the same time). Could anyone help explain this? Thank you.

Hi everyone! I am planning to take the September LSAT (will be my second time taking it) and would love to set up a zoom study group! I think it would be helpful and also keep us motivated and accountable if we set up a zoom meeting every so often and helped each other study and maybe target each of our weak points. If anyone is interested and wants to set up a zoom study group, email me at halvarez9097@gmail.com. I can start a group text for anyone interested and we can find a time that works for everyone to meet on zoom :)

I'm debating whether or not I go through the foundations section to study for the August 2024 LSAT. It seems like a lot of the information would only be helpful for logic games?? Like for example the "Conditional and Set Logic" and "Logic of intersecting sets" sections don't seem like they would be any help on a test that has no LG. Any opinions on this would be great!

Hello all!

I am in the beginning of my LSAT Journey if I can qualify as that. I recently purchased my 7sage membership but previously used Mike Kim's book.

I was supposed to take the LSAT in February but ended up postponing it for June 2024 as I was really struggling to improve during my winter break as quick as I wanted. I am now in a bit of a bind because I postponed the test for June 2024 and experienced various health complications during the semester which made me have to focus more on my classes in order to catch up and I stopped studying for the LSAT.

I am now done with my semester and I am about a week out of the June LSAT and I am still scoring in the 148-152 range. Does anybody have any advice to help me progress or get easy points using 7sage or else ?

I also plan on taking the August LSAT, for this I will have more time to study over the summer so I believe that I will do way better. However, what should I do for June ? I still want to attempt it. My worse section is Logic Games, followed by LR. I'm doing just okay with reading comprehension.

Thank you so much.

I started 7Sage about two and a half weeks ago (I know still very early on-just want some tips) and have started prepping for the LR section of the LSAT for the new version after August, hopefully taking the LSAT for the first time in october. I started with some of the foundations as well. I began the theory and approach lessons which explain the question types and give examples of each, as well as examples for you to do throughout the lessons. Anyway, when I finish with those I start drilling with the lessons and tips in mind. I started the MSS lessons and now have been drilling through the clean questions. I always watch every explanation video for the ones I got wrong and read over the ones I got right to mimic the strategy.

My questions:

Is it normal to have a high varying range of wrong answers between timed drill sets at the beginning? For example, I will do 10 questions to start off in one set since I am very new to this and get -5 on one then -3 on another, maybe -6, -4, then oddly I'll get all of them right and it restarts. Somehow, my main common score is always getting -5. Either way, it's such a weird range and I have no idea where I am at or how to gauge this. I know there are gaps because I just started but what are your tips? Even though it's still early shouldn't I be improving at least a little?

Did you find drilling or lessons more valuable and how do I know what's best for me? Did you watch every foundational video or focused on specific lessons and then drilled right after?

Preview of RC v2 Curriculum

Hello! The Content Team at 7Sage has been teaching the new version of our RC curriculum. You can find the archives here. Just search for any RC class that Albert, Kevin, or I've taught.

One request we got during class was to share the flowchart that we used. So here it is!

Hi everyone, I'm taking the LSAT on June 7 remotely. I received the email from LSAC today saying that the LSAT Writing has opened up. Admittedly, I hadn't done much research on the LSAT Writing up until today, but this sentence in the email struck me: "Given the large volume of test takers, we strongly encourage you to complete your LSAT Writing as soon as it becomes available." I sort of scrambled today to figure out how to approach the LSAT Writing section, but I couldn't find anything on 7Sage or on the LSAT Reddit saying that there is a "better" day to take the writing section, or that taking it earlier is better. Is there something I'm missing? Is it better to take it earlier because there might be more proctors available? I don't really know anyone that has taken the LSAT or is a lawyer, so any insight is much appreciated, thanks!

I’m looking for a study buddy in the Dallas area. I am interning there this summer and will be living in the downtown area. If anyone is interested please reach out- I don’t care what you’re scoring or anything, it is more so for accountability and to work through hard questions with it.

Refunding core plan

Hello there, I have just purchased the core plan a few days ago. However I am wanting to refund the subscription. I have come to find out that I must have LawHub advantage to simply have access to 7sage. I would rather just use the LawHub Advantage, how can I do this?

Adendum

Hello. I am applying to schools in the fall and have a 3.84 LSAC GPA which dropped in my last semester of college from a 3.9 because I got a C+. I know that it's just one lone grade, but I basically got disowned by my parents because of cultural problems (during the week before finals) and I failed my finals. Considering that if I didn't get the C+, I would be competitive for the T-14, should I write an adendum?

Hello,

I recently took the April LSAT and scored signfiicantly lower than I did on practice tests. I was averaging 168-173 on a number of PTs, but scored a 158 on the real thing!! I didn't buy Score Preview so am stuck with that score.

I've started studying again and have taken two tests - I got a 175 on one and a 171 on the other. My GPA was a 3.80 in college.

In short I'm wondering if my 158 will ruin any chance that I get accepted into a T14. I know they report the top score, but this is a pretty glaring result, does anyone have any insights here?

Score not increasing

Hi all,

I have been studying for 2 months now and my score has not been all over the place it seems from between 145-148. Any advice on how I can change my studying to get to my goal score 160 by October. As of right now I just started using 7sage and I am going through the curriculum and have taken two exams averaging a 148. I just feel stuck and overwhelmed.

So, I'm curious what the most effective drill methods were for all of you. I'm giving myself 3 months to study and this is my first week of studying. I'm thinking right now to spend 1.5 hours of drilling a day but I'm curious how others have approached this and how effective you felt your method was... Thank you!
