180!
Cant Get Right
Yearly + Live Member Sage ⭐ 🍌 7Sage Tutor
So on my last PT I scored a 180, on both the simulated PT and the BR! It’s been kind of surreal since, but I hope to come back down any minute now! I know I still have a lot of work to do, and my PT average is, of course, much lower than 180; but I wanted to share for several reasons.
First, high fives!! And I already had a bottle of champagne to celebrate!
Secondly, and arguably more importantly; if I can do it, I firmly believe this test is conquerable by just about anyone. I graduated 63rd out of about 350 in my class from high school and finished my undergrad with a 3.64 GPA from The University of Southern Mississippi. I spent the last 8 years managing and consulting with small independent cafes, restaurants, and catering companies. Not to put down my experience, I owe a lot to the quality of my education and the lessons learned through work; but my point is that I’ve never been an exceptional student or done big, great things. I’m just kind of a regular guy. And if some random, regular dude can do it; then any random, regular dude/dudette can do it. You can do it. Whoever you are, whatever your background or situation; I genuinely believe you have every capacity to 180 this test. And I’m sharing because I hope my story can help you to believe it too.
I think this probably goes without saying, but this seems like a good time to thank the entire 7Sage team and community. The LSAT has been a long, painful process for me. I started studying about a year ago with a target score of 173. I scored a 163 in Oct. 2015 and then a 162 in Dec. 2015. After the Dec scores came back I was really bitter for a long time. I decided I could either quit altogether, temper my goals, or delay a year and redouble my efforts for my final take. I chose to quit altogether. Well, obviously that didn’t stick, and after a few months of pouting, I picked myself up. Having discovered 7Sage through the LG videos on youtube (isn’t that how we all find our way here?), I signed up having decided that if I was going to prepare for the LSAT right, this is where I needed to be. I abandoned everything I had learned to date and started over with the 7Sage curriculum. The 7Sage teaching methods are, of course, incredibly effective; and I began building my LSAT knowledge on a much more solid foundation. I also got involved and stayed involved on the forums. Before 7Sage, I felt very much alone in this. I’d go to my friends; but as we all know, people on the outside just can’t understand or empathize with what we’re going through, much less advise us. I’ve learned so much practical knowledge from you guys, but it’s the collective support of this group that really makes it a special place; and I know I wouldn’t have made it so far without this community.
Thanks, and I love you guys!

So excited for you!
Secondly, this: Cheers to you for sticking to your guns! I was very fortunate and asked a friend and former classmate who is attending one of my target schools (Queens U Law, Kingston, ON) and he used 7sage too, so different method but we are all after the same things!
Thanks everybody!
Oh, and @nader.parham , this is for you.
