    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.

    Can You Gain 4 LSAT Points Fast?

    You PT'd a 169 and want a 173. Is four points by August realistic? Henry and Bailey break down why the 160s to 170s jump feels like a magical barrier when it's really just a few more points. They cover how to tighten your weak spots without overhauling what works, setting one or two reachable goals per PT, and using your analytics to grab the points you keep leaving behind. Plus: should you sign up for August now or wait?

    Why Your Wrong Answer Journal Fails

    You started a wrong answer journal, but it isn't moving your score. Bailey and Henry break down where these usually go wrong: vague notes like "try harder," tracking the wrong things, and skipping the one column that actually matters. You'll hear two approaches you can steal, Bailey's question by question system and Henry's lesson based synthesis, plus why the heuristics you're clinging to (like never picking strong answers) keep tripping you up.

    Never Do This Right Before Your LSAT

    There's one thing test-takers do the night before the LSAT that quietly wrecks their score, and almost everyone is tempted to do it. Bailey and Henry break down the cramming trap, why it stresses you out more than it helps, and what to do instead to walk in sharp and confident. Plus the one light warm-up that actually works, a 24-hour confidence plan, and the great comfort-movie debate.
