@sandypants said: Thanks everyone for your input! I got the casio watch @Freddy_D recommended. Hopefully it won't be too gigantic on my wrist but worst case I can poke a new hole in the band or something. Really excited to start studying with …

@apawalter said: Thanks so much for your detailed response @"Alex Divine" my strategy in RC is to spend about 4 minutes reading and then around 5 minutes answering the questions, but this may fluctuate depending on the difficulty of the passag…

@"Shireen Bhatia-1" said: Hi guys! I wanted to share an experience I had and a realization! I had a really good month and my score was going closer and closer to where I wanted it. (Yay!) Then this week, I noticed I felt stressed, an…

@apawalter said: Thanks for the responses! @"Alex Divine" yes I have done quite a few PTs and timed RC, but maybe I'm just the type of person who needs to a million before I feel comfortable haha! I do still miss a few in BR/untimed but I…

@ZachTheBookman said: Dear 7Sage fam, I am going to register for the December LSAT and will begin prepping mid September. This leaves me a solid 10 weeks of studying time to shoot for 170+ coming from PTs 157-160. I was prepping for the L…

@Mitzyyyy said: Do the early LR sections (PTs 10 - 20) seem a little more difficult than the sections in the later PTs? I find the language in the stimulus for many questions to be a little convoluted. Is that just me? I am using the earl…

@"yeram.choi" said: Hey @"Alex Divine" thanks for the advice! For RC, I think it's really timing. I usually have no problem breezing through the first two easier ones, but then I get stuck on the third passage (usually level 4 or so) and …

Hey, So I'm kind of working toward moving consistently into the 170 + range. If you can, absolutely take those 2 months off to prep. Having a full time schedule to dedicate to prep will be extremely helpful. As far as specific strategies, I would…

@Victoria14 that's amazing! I had the same experience the other day when I got my best PT score after taking it easy for a few days. Taking a break and coming back recharged is the way to go! Good luck in September

7Sage's/JY's standard for your " PT average" is the average of your last 5 PTs. And I think +3/-3 is right on as far as likely score ranges on test day.

@abernardi said: Hi All, As the title states, I'm torn on whether or not to take the February or June LSAT. I'm out of undergrad and working full time, planning on applying to schools in 2018-19 and enrolling Fall '19. That said, I'v…

@apawalter said: Hey all! I find that whenever I do RC (and sometimes even during LR) I feel panicky and rushed which causes me to not absorb what I'm reading properly. This only happens to me on timed PTs as during BR or when I'm not under ti…

@sweetalison007 said: I have analyzed why I got a BA evaluation. Technically speaking - my aggregate would have been called average . But since I have had poor marks in my earlier modules, those damning scores took a precedence over my cumulat…

@sweetalison007 said: Thank you. Honestly my alma mater puts institutions like Purdue, BU to shame. The closest equivalent can be Canada's U of T - where median is C/C+. However I take the responsibility of my poor GPA myself. No point sou…

@sweetalison007 said: Yes am from India. Went to a school with harshest grading curve on earth. Getting a B-in my final year took a lot of effort. Then again may be I was not smart enough to figure how to overcome the grading curve. The good…

@sweetalison007 said: No I have already graduated. Nothing I can do now honestly. I had a learning disability ( undiagnosed by then) and was studying at a school with ridiculously harsh grading curve C/C-/B-. I don't have any failing gra…

@sweetalison007 said: I don't have failing grades. I passed all papers. Its just my marks are full of C/C- and B-. I just have a poor GPA ( 2.3 ) or so which appeared as poor or below average. Oh, that's great news! Are you an international …

@amw26 said: Hello all, After finishing the CC and attempting about 5-6 PTs , I noticed I was still hovering around 158-160 so I revisited the CC and that same day, decided to take PT41 untimed and scored a 166. Huge confidence boost beca…

Why are you interested in law? I guess I'm trying to gauge why becoming a lawyer is important to you. I think it may give me some more insight to give you better advice on how to proceed from here. If it's something that you were put on this earth …

@sayhey180 said: English is my second language as well. A few tricks I use are to visually abbreviate words that are not necessary to the understanding of the passage or argument, like "floccinaucinihilipilification" I would read as "flac" and…

@"Testing..." said: I plateaued around 168 and did PT65 this Wednesday (six sections). I finally break 170 (this is my 6th PT) and scored 174 (with a BR score 179)!!!! Here is my breakdown: -2 LR (BR -2; still haven't figured out …
