10+ Point Improvement in 1 Week

adrianne

Last week, with no prior knowledge of the test, I achieved a diagnostic score of 146.
This morning, I received a 156 on my practice test! I have worked my way diligently through the foundations and I am about 45% through the LR written and video lessons on the syllabus. I just wanted to share my win and give some encouragement to users on here who are feeling like they cannot learn the test. As of a week ago I had not done any studying at all, and now I intend to take the LSAT in January and apply in the 2025 cycle.
Do not let yourself get discouraged - just do the work and don't give up. 7sage WORKS and I can't wait to check back in once I've made more progress and completed all the lessons!

That's so awesome Adrianne! Happy for you. I'm about to take my initial practice test to see where I land. I've heard great things about 7Sage and your testimonial is encouraging!
All the best to you!

Thank you so much (: Having a solid understanding of the arguments section, especially the spectrum of support, has helped me the most. I also think that the grammar portion is really a great refresher, because it wasn't something I had thought I would need as much as I have. Watching the videos on Modifiers and seeing just how complex a question can seem intimidating. But then, once you get through the extra layers of verbiage, all the questions are relatively the same.

I think when it comes to practice / drills as well, I don't allow myself move on until I get it right, and I'll keep refreshing/doing more drills until I feel comfortable. Practice, practice, practice when the questions are basically formulas.
