Your approach is fine, many people do it this way, and transitioning from a full BR to a circle BR can really help cement your recognition of 100% certainty and accuracy so there's definitely plenty of value to be had there.
As far as the paper goe…
Sounds like you have a good BR process then. And mid 170s is already an excellent BR score, so even if it's tough to close that final gap, just know you're already in great shape. The best advice I can give to catch confidence errors is really just …
Despite going through the whole 7Sage curriculum, it sounds like your issue is just a matter of developing a deep understanding of the fundamentals to the point that applying them is akin to muscle memory as opposed to a drawn out purposeful applica…
I did 7Sage all the way through and then picked up the Trainer. They complement each other very well and I like both of their approaches for LR. I'd get through all the logic portions of 7Sage and then reintegrate the Trainer as you see how each res…
That just seems like a crazy waste of time to me and you should not need that many read throughs. Are we talking just the rules or the situation as well? I would say two times at most for the rules: once to transcribe and a quick second round to ver…
If I were you here's what I would do: Get 72+ and save them for the last week or two of September. Go through 7Sage and the Trainer while taking about at least one PT per week to stay sharp on test day skills. Get some PTs from the 40s and mix those…

What was your PT average?
This is definitely important info to know in order to give you good advice. Equally as important is what is/was your BR average? If you were PTing and BRing at right around 150 then a 1…
Were your BR scores as wildly inconsistent or was it just your timed scores? If it's just the latter then it sounds more like nerves possibly hitting you in different situations. So it might benefit you to pay more attention to how you feel during a…

I think it would be best to go though the whole curriculum before diving back into PTs. Also the Trainer is very helpful with RC and compliments 7Sage very well. If you haven't utilized the Trainer I think it would be an awesome pic…
Almost every school has an open ended personal statement. They usually will just specify a desired or maximum length and that's about it. A PS does not have to mention law school or the law at all, and many excellent ones do not mention either one. …
Are you BRing the whole test or just circling questions you're not 100% on? If it's the former you just need to keep working at it to refine your skills a bit more, and maybe take a little more time to BR. If it's the latter, then it sounds like you…
You still have the old problem sets which is what literally everyone who has bought a package has paid for so far. No one is losing anything. They are adding content for free to current subscribers. Whether you find that content to be value added is…
I will add that if you can find a subcategory or thread on TLS that fits your goals or profile it can be a bit easier to find people to talk to. That's why I almost exclusively read the veteran's thread there since it is a really supportive communit…
Sorry to hear that... I know people can be pretty unsupportive on TLS. You'll definitely find a lot more friendly and supportive people on here, you just might have to wait to find people testing next year. Good luck!
I would ditch powerscore, pick up a copy of the LSAT Trainer, then finish both the Trainer and 7Sage before you start worrying too much. A lot of the prep you do for LR will actually help immensely in your RC. I recently advised someone in a very si…
Great to hear things are going well for you. As you get further into PTs they definitely mix it up so I wouldn't get too psychologically invested in how they start out. I've taken PTs that the fourth game is the easiest and it can throw you for a lo…
I would also say that diversity statements are particularly advantageous to those that not only have a valid reason for writing one (i.e.- being left handed is not a legit DS topic) but also write an exceptional one. Don't think that simply advertis…
Since even the top package only gives you one year of access on 7Sage I feel like you won't be as likely to find someone shooting for next summer or fall until after the October LSAT... However given the larger user base, you might find someone on T…
The reason they aren't recommended for drilling is because there have been significant changes to the LSAT in the mid 30s and again several times after that to a lesser extent. You need something to drill with so it's better to use the older ones fo…
Also, I would just add that if you can find a compelling reason and topic for each one then you should write both rather than combining them. If the diversity statement is legit and justified then it helps give you an extra opportunity to get person…
^This is also a good idea if you have only taken it once or twice. These schools won't care about two or three scores especially if you trend upwards. Really nothing to lose on that front either. Cracking a 171/172 will likely get you into at least …
"I also had an eye exam and realized my prescription was off. Correcting that really helped and I'd recommend it to anyone to be safe."
Interesting that you mention this because I was thinking about creating a topic about this. I have had 20/10 vis…
@Tanvira.chaudhury A few questions I have for you before I can give you some targeted answers: How much prep have you done so far? What did you use for prep? Have you started full timed PTs yet? Is English your first language?
