Q: If I need more content, can I upgrade at any time?

A: Yes, at any time you feel that you need more content, you can upgrade and only pay the difference by going here while logged in:
http://7sage.com/enroll/

Please note that while purchasing higher packages outright will give you more time (Premium comes with 6 months and Ultimate comes with 9), upgrading from a lower package will only give you an additional one (1) month to your account. You can always add on additional months from the addons section.
https://7sage.com/addons/

Q: How much time do I have left on my account?

A: You can see your time remaining here:
http://7sage.com/account/

If you need more time, you can purchase an extension here:
http://7sage.com/addons/

All of our bundles also come with a +1 month extension.

Q: I accidentally put my full name -or- I want to change my display name! How do I do that?

A: You can change your display name here:
http://7sage.com/account/

Please note that you will still have to login with your email!

Q: What's this "BR" everyone keeps talking about?

A: J.Y. created a whole section about BR (or "Blind Review") you can check out here:
http://7sage.com/lesson/the-blind-review-is-a-habit/

This is available to both free and paid users.

Q: I want to join a BR group!

A: Check the "Study Groups" thread here:
http://7sage.com/forums/categories/study-groups

Q: I heard you guys do live classes / tutor. Where can I sign up for this?

A: Sorry, we no longer offer live classes or tutor. If you need a tutor, visit this page: https://7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/4760/7sages-approved-tutors/p1

Q: Do you have video explanations for PTs 1-35?

A: Yep! We're missing LR from PTs 1-16, but have everything else. You can get access to these videos through the Ultimate+ course:
https://7sage.com/enroll/

Q: Can you reduce the price of the course for me / give me a discount? I can't afford Premium/Ultimate/Ultimate+!

A: Sorry, we don't have any discounts. 7Sage is already the most affordable course out there! We do, however, have a very easy payment plan for Premium, Ultimate and Ultimate+ that many of our students take advantage of.

It's basically our upgrades function. Here's how to do it:

First, enroll in LSAT Starter for $179:
http://7sage.com/enroll

When you are ready, upgrade to LSAT Premium for $170 more, then to LSAT Ultimate for $200 more and finally LSAT Ultimate+ for $200 more.

You get the best and most complete course for 4 easy payments.

The only downside to upgrading vs. purchasing outright is the number of months included in each course. Purchasing Starter, Premium, Ultimate and Ultimate+ normally gives you 3 (Starter), 6 (Premium), 9 (Ultimate) and 12 (Ultimate+) months, but upgrading from a lower course will only give you +1 month per upgrade level.

So, for example, if you purchase Starter and later upgrade to Ultimate, you'll only get a +2 month extension as opposed to the full 9 months included with Ultimate. You can always extend your access here:
https://7sage.com/addons/

Q: What currency is 7Sage charged in?

A: All of our prices are in USD, so keep that in mind when going to purchase. You can see the current exchange rate for the day here:
http://www.xe.com/currencyconverter/convert/?Amount=1&From=USD&To=CAD

Please note that if you use a Canadian credit card to pay for US purchases, your credit card company will typically do the currency conversion USD->CAD at a rate 1-6% worse than the rates you see on xe.com.

Q: What's the difference between the courses?

A:
Our trial account includes:
Every LG explanation: http://7sage.com/logic-game-explanations/
How to study for the LSAT: http://7sage.com/lesson/how-to-study-for-the-lsat
The Three Worst LSAT Mistakes: http://7sage.com/lesson/the-three-worst-lsat-mistakes
The Study Schedule: http://7sage.com/lesson/lsat-study-schedules
Our active discussion forums: https://7sage.com/discussion/
And the June 2007 PT with full video explanations: http://7sage.com/lesson/preptest-june-2007/

See this page for the difference between the paid courses:
https://7sage.com/enroll/

Q: Can I download the videos?

A: No, 7Sage is for online viewing only. Downloading the videos is against our TOS, please don't do it.

    Q: What is "Drilling"? Does it have anything to do with BR?

    (Answer by @Pacifico)
    A: Drilling is when you work on specific issues you have rather than full PTs. You should BR when you drill but BR itself does not technically constitute drilling. Doing a timed section of LR/RC/LG is considered drilling, as is just doing a passage, a game, or a few LR questions whether they are random or all the same type. Early in your prep it is meant to help teach you the concepts and improve your skills in different areas. Later in your prep it is for shoring up your weaknesses.

    Q: Do you have LR/LG/RC categorized by type?

    A: Yep! Check out the new Question Bank:
    https://7sage.com/question-bank/

    There's a video underneath the title that will help you go through it easily. :)

    Q: How do I add pictures to my post?

    A: You'll need an image link to post! First, find a picture you want to add from Google or upload one of your own pictures to Imgur or another image sharing site.

    Once you've got your image link (it should end with .png, .gif, .jpg or any other image file endings), the easy way is to just paste it into the chat. That's it! It used to be a lot more complicated, but we fixed that recently. :)

    Thank you :) This is very helpful! I just wish LSAC didn't take away the right to sell PDF PTs because 40's are shockingly expensive.. Only available at Cambridge atm?

    I agree, the 40s are both hard to find and very expensive when you do find them.

    I believe they're available through LSAC's site as well, though you can check this page for a list of affordable PTs I was able to find:

    LSAC's site doesn't sell them. I'd like to think I'm lucky that they are at least obtainable through Cambridge. Thank you for the link, it was very helpful! I've actually bookmarked this previously when I purchased recent PTs :)

    Ahh, you're right. LSAC only sells physical copies.

    Use an earlier PT instead of the June 2007 then, like PT 36.
