Anywhere you see a tag on the website, hover over it for more information! Handy dandy!

Also, we've added a ton of tags for common flaws like ad hominem arguments and false dichotomies! Dandy handy!

Shoot us any ideas you have for what information you'd like to see in these tooltips. I PROMISE THE DEVS WILL IMMEDIATELY IMPLEMENT EVERY SINGLE SUGGESTION.

We just published this video on conditional logic! It's a great overview of conditional concepts that will prepare you for drilling. It's also a good preview / refresher of our Conditional Logic module for those of you working through our lessons.

Also, you might find our Conditional Logic Cheat Sheet helpful. Check it out!

Yeah, he DNP'd Austin Reaves and Rui. He also treated Taurean Prince like he was his own flesh and blood. But is he wrong when he tells us to read and understand the stimulus before moving on to the answer choices? Hell no! So go hard on them LSAT questions! Salute!

I know you can filter to show only the most recent PT and drill data but I want to start fresh w a blank slate. Is it possible to wipe everything without having to manually delete hundreds of drills? If so is there a way to retain my notes and bookmarked questions?

Hi! I'm suffering from the classic issue of struggling to break free of the -4/-3 rage on timed sections and PTs, -1/-0 on BR. My BRs are consistently around 175 or higher, but the end goal is to avoid making those silly mistakes on the real thing. For those consistent 170+ scorers, were there any concepts, sayings, things you heard, or anything in your studying habits that just made things click? It could be regarding a specific question type, a common trap you were falling for, a classic flaw, anything.

You've been grinding through your LSAT prep and finally start seeing scores in the mid-to-high 170s, only to fall back to the high 160s on your next practice test. Sound familiar? In this episode, @AlexJacobs and @BaileyLuber break down a question from a student dealing with exactly that kind of score variance. They discuss what's behind those frustrating swings, how tension and underconfidence can quietly tank a score, whether a partly fresh PT can inflate your results, and what you can actually do to build consistency when you're trying to break out of a plateau. If you've been stuck in a score range and can't figure out why your best performances aren't sticking, this one's for you.

😖 Frustrated

160 Plateau - Tips Please!

Hi! I am really struggling and would love any help/tips regarding taking sections or study schedules. For the past month, I've consistently been stuck at 159/160 and have yet to break 160. I am aiming for June and really want a 170+. I just did another section today and got a 159 and 172 BR. I am extremely frustrated and have no idea how to choose the correct answer between 2, not fatigue during the exam, understand RC, etc. I've been doing 1/2 reading passages throughout the week and drilling level 3-5 questions and reviewing them all each day - I'm not sure where I should go next. If anyone could please let me know what helped them, that would be great! Thanks so much!

I am reading the Economist to study for law school, as someone here or on reddit had mentioned it as a good way to learn how to write in law school. I am wondering if it is also good for reading comprehension. If so, does anyone have any tips for how to study using The Economist?

For example, I am currently thinking of reading an article, then summarizing the main points of the article and the conclusion, and as an extra step, try to state my own opinion on the article. Let me know your thoughts in the comments. TIA

I am a non-traditional student currently working as an executive full-time (CEO) in a high-stress field. I have been studying for about a year and am scheduled to test on April 9.

My mom passed away on Monday morning after a long battle with cancer, and because I travelled to support my parents, I haven't gotten much sleep in the past week. I think because of the stress and travel, I also got sick and have had a fever of 104-102 for the last few days. I need to stay to support my Dad until next Tuesday, so I will be flying for 12 hrs 2 days before I test.

I am deeply concerned that I will not test as well as I have the potential to, given the strain of the last few weeks, but I also feel like that's a cop out....if I were prepared in the first place, I should do as well as I would have anyway.

Should I just power through and have confidence that my prep will bolster my performance? Is it even possible to reschedule without penalty at this point? If I don't test, then I miss my last shot at this admission cycle, correct? If I test poorly, is it bad form to explain the circumstances?

Feeling burned out right before test day? In this episode, @AlexJacobs and @BaileyLuber tackle a question from Sharon, who's been studying for six months and has hit her target score on multiple practice tests but is battling mental fatigue with the April LSAT just days away. The hosts share practical advice on what to do (and what not to do) in the final stretch, including how to structure light study sessions, when to stop taking full practice tests, and why this last week is more about protecting your score than improving it. Bailey also shares a candid look back at her own LSAT journey and the lessons she learned the hard way across four attempts.

Hi all, is anyone interested in getting a study group going? I'm aiming for the June lsat and need to really focus. I work full time and available after 5pm on weekdays and afternoons on the weekend.

Hello,

Does anyone have an interest in joining a daily reading comp study group? I took some classes with Bailey, who suggested reading a passage per day. The group is open to all skill levels. Ideally, we can work on the first passage on a reading comp section on one day and the next day do the second passage and continue the pattern. We will complete one passage per day and go through the passage, questions and answer choices with a fine-tooth comb to get a great understanding of the passage.

I'm open to meeting daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, PST.

Happy studying!

Hello!

I’m based in the Alhambra area and am looking to put together a group of people for some in-person study sessions. I have been studying since March, and the score of my most recent practice test was a 159.

I am very serious about my prep for this test, and am looking for equally consistent and disciplined individuals to study with for ~2hr once a week. My target range is 170+. I have some flexibility with my time, and though I would prefer a weekend I am also open to meeting weekdays in the morning.

I am planning for study sessions to take place at the Alhambra Library, in one of their study rooms. I am open to other study rooms within a ~15min radius (i.e. if someone has access to local college study rooms such as PCC). I am looking to have a structured format that would involve warm-ups, drills, and breakdowns.

We may be a good fit if you

- Are using a platform to organize your study

- Have a similar target goal (170)

- Are testing in a similar timeframe

- Are able to commit to once-a-week sessions

- Are comfortable thinking out loud

- Prioritize growth over ego

I’ve been averaging between 20-30 hours of studying a week on my own, and at this stage I feel the support of a few good partners would be extremely beneficial!

If you’re interested, please reach out with:

- Your test date, and if you’ve taken it before

- Your current PT range

- Your biggest LR/RC struggles + strengths

- What you want from a study partner

- What you bring to the table

- Any additional questions you may have for me

If it feels like a good fit, I will move forward with setting a definitive day + time that works for everyone. Thanks for your interest!

Hey everyone,

My name is Brooks, and I have taken the LSAT several times, but I am hoping this June will be my last attempt. Thanks to 7Sage, I was finally able to break past my 156 plateau and am now firmly in the low 160's. I'm based out of Raleigh, NC, but I am happy to meet with someone virtually or in-person if schedules permit. I am a night owl, so I'd enjoy afternoons or later in the evenings. Looking for folks to meet with at least once a week to go over tough problems/hold each other accountable.

Recently I've noticed that the custom timing feature on LR and RC drills has been a little finicky. For example, if I want to create a drill and set the timer for say, 15:00 minutes, the page will start glitching once I begin entering my desired drill time into the text box. I never had issues with this before, but now, it feels like I have to fight my computer every time I want to create a custom time'd drill. Has anyone else had issues with this?
