Hey Guys!
I haven't purchased a 7sage course yet and I don't even know if I need a course. Ive taken the test twice already and I think what I struggle most on is knowing how to use my time leading up for the test, ex drilling more, PTing more etc. Does 7sage help with that? My past test scores have been extremely low after much studying, I haven't passed a 150 therefore I decided to request accommodations for my disability.
Recently I was granted testing accommodations and will now receive 54min per section! It is the third time I will take the test therefore I can not mess this up. Should I practice as if I have 35 min per section? Where do I find strategies for people who are taking the test with extended time? If someone in a similar situation has done something remarkable to improve their score please let me know!
Any advice would help.
Thank you!

As far as the strategies for taking the test with extended time, they are basically the same. The main difference I notice is that I'm just mentally more tired at the end of the PTs, but that's to be expected when it's taking you literally 1.5xs as long. When I was practicing with 35 minute sections, I couldn't get above the high 150s - low-160s even after a year of study. I would only get to 3 RC passages and 3 LGs MAX.
Once I was granted accommodations, and did more BR than I ever thought possible to REALLY understand the test, my scores improved dramatically.
I suggest you take a PT with the extended time, get your score, and go from there.
LSAC is saying that your 54 minutes are equivalent to my 35 minutes. Which means that the tests you took before, with a 35 minute limit, felt for you roughly the same as 23 minute sections would feel for me (or any other person without a disability). I'm sure my scores would take a major hit if I only had 23 minutes/section, so you might be pleasantly surprised by your scores on PT's taken with the proper time accommodations.
If you're still not where you need to be, I'd wholeheartedly recommend 7Sage. JY's methods are really practical and down to earth, and he builds the LSAT house from the foundation up, so you're likely to benefit a lot from the lessons (all packages include all lessons). And the community is very helpful with questions that might not be answered in the curriculum.
Good luck!
