Towards the end of my prep, when I was doing more full …

I also did a podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/60-7sager-me-v-l…
@HopefullyHLS I just read 20 pages/day. It didn't feel like a lot on a given day! At that rate, I would read 2 or 3 books per month.
@Otteroasis07 yes!! I just made my decision, so I will post the outcome of this cycle!
I redacted my GPA and applied to WUSTL the first week of November. I was invited to interview. The Admissions Officer who interviewed me explained the redaction and scholarship process to me. She volunteered this information without me prompting her…
@Determined_ first of all, I love your username. At the end of the conversation, I told JY I could've talked for another 2 hours because we only scratched the surface! I'm still here and would love to continue to offer strategies that may be helpfu…
Update: Good-bye for now 7sage! Thank you all for the love and support! I'm grateful for the opportunity to help my fellow 7sagers by sharing key strategies that helped me along the way (see the comments for guides that I posted!) I am shooting to g…

By popular request, this is how I approached the core curriculum.
Context: if you saw my original post, I tried a bunch of different programs before coming to 7sage so I had a foundation in the exam and was scoring in…
@phosita_phoeatah great questions!
I recommend doing whatever helps you work through games most efficiently. I prioritize the question types I think are easier, then do the harder ones. I find that doing the easier questions first helps me build ou…
hi there! My diagnostic was in the 140s and I just scored a 180 on the August 2021 exam.
This is the schedule that worked for me as I was balancing a full-time job, parenthood, and LSAT studying.
Mindset: I reframed this arduous LSAT prep process…

Re: finishing all the PTs:
I didn't even come close to finishing all the PTs. Throughout the last stages of prep, I focused on perfecting and refining my strategy for every question type and on th…

@Dehydrated_Ginger good luck to you!! I was especially exhausted the first week of waking up at 4 AM but then doing a quick workout got me energized. If you sleep in one day, no big deal. Just re-strategize and go at it again the next day. I figured…
Balancing work, parenthood, and studying:
@yanetrvaldes you got this!!
@patricia.i.deangelis I'm rooting for you! I love your sentiment because you hit on an exact struggle of mine that held me back for far too long and was in the back of my mind …
Here's my study schedule! @ParisJackson @LSATstudyperson @mollyjoy1 @tranle627
Mindset: There were many highs and lows and at times I thought it was wrong to keep studying. I began to have a healthier approach to the exam when I put the LSAT in the…
I am a parent working full time. I study 6 days of the week between 4:30/5 AM and 8 AM (before work and before my child wakes up). I get up at 4 AM, drink coffee, workout, then do mindfulness to get my brain focused. I take at least 1 day off per we…
