This Could Save Your LSAT Score

145 to Harvard Law & the Reddit Admissions Questions We Couldn't Ignore

Longtime 7Sage tutor Julia went from a 145 diagnostic to a 175 and a seat at Harvard Law, and she is not pretending it was easy. She joins Bailey to talk through the six-month plateau that nearly broke her, why she finally ditched solo studying, and how learning to be "a little delusional" changed everything. Plus, Bailey and Alex answer a listener wondering if August is too soon to crack the high 160s, and Ethan from admissions reacts to the most chaotic posts on r/lawschooladmissions, from anime personal statements to waitlists that feel suspiciously like situationships.

Listen to This Before You Take Full Sections

You're crushing the drills, then your score falls apart the second you hit a full LR section. Here's what nobody tells you about why that happens. Bailey and Henry break down what changes when the section gets real: you're no longer just answering a question type you were handed, you're spotting the type AND the kind of argument in front of you, all against the clock. They get into why running full sections every day might be slowing you down, how to drill with more intention, and how to start predicting what a right answer will do before you look at the choices. If your accuracy keeps dropping the moment you go full-length, this one's for you.

How Long Should Your Break Be?

You just survived the June LSAT and now you want to be ready for September. So how long should you actually rest before diving back in? Bailey and Henry break down why a week off is the smart move, why taking too much time away can quietly set you back, and how to ease in without panic studying. Plus the one thing you should never do the moment your break ends, and why feeling a little rusty is totally normal. Keep up the motion.

Are You Reviewing Backwards?

You already review the questions you miss, so why isn't your score moving? Bailey and Henry break down what wrong answer journaling actually looks like, starting with the two questions you should ask every single time: what made the wrong answer look attractive, and what made you pass up the right one. You'll learn why writing it by hand beats doing it in your head, how to abstract each mistake into a rule you can use on the next question, and why picking just three things to focus on will get you further than trying to fix everything at once.

Do This Many PTs Before Your LSAT

How many practice tests should you actually be taking before the LSAT, and how long should you live in PT mode? Bailey and Henry lay out the real sweet spot (hint: it's not a PT every other day), how many total PTs you need to hit your goal score, and the mindset shift that decides whether all that testing moves your number or just burns you out. Plus the one analogy from the 7Sage tutoring manual that reframes how you should think about every practice test you take.
