Is the Starter course enough to get a 160+ in 3 months?If I start the Starter course now, is it enough for the September LSAT for me to get an score of 160+? **Admin note: changed title for clarity**
@LSATcantwin and @keets993 summed it up perfectly, so all I can say is this: 7Sage offers no shortcuts or silver bullets!
Getting the Starter package is not a sufficient condition for doing well on the LSAT, nor is it a necessary condition. -
