Will the july flex also not be counted towards the take limit?
@shalin234 For the June we received step-by-step instructions the Tuesday before the exam. I can share the instructions here if it's helpful. Of course bear in mind that this process may change for the July test (unlikely, but possible).
Step-by-step instructions for test day
Make sure you have the username and password for both your ProctorU account and your LSAC account, and an acceptable form of government ID. You will need these to take the LSAT-Flex.
You will start by logging into your ProctorU account at your scheduled test time, using your ProctorU username and password, at https://go.proctoru.com.
Once you have logged into your ProctorU account, you will click “Start Session.”
You will be guided through (1) a system check, to make sure your computer meets the requirements to test, and (2) a verification of your identity, in which both your face and your government ID will be photographed.
The system will guide you to download and install the ProctorU Logmeinrescue applet on your machine. If your computer has very restrictive settings for downloading/installing software, you may need to adjust them to allow this step to occur.
Once you have completed these preliminary steps, the proctor will request that you click “Begin Exam,” which will launch the LSAC LawHub testing interface.
You will need to log into the LSAC LawHub testing interface using your LSAC username and password.
The proctor will ask you to read the test rules aloud and then indicate your agreement by checking an onscreen box.
At this point, the proctor will enter a password indicating you have completed all the required steps, which will activate an LSAT-Flex start button on your screen.
When you click the onscreen start button, your LSAT-Flex will begin.
ProctorU has created several general videos that illustrate the startup process for any test for which they provide remote proctoring services. These videos are not specific to the LSAT-Flex, but they may be useful to you in familiarizing yourself about the startup process:
Should you encounter any problems during this startup process, you can click ProctorU’s “Blue Owl” button to request help or ask your proctor to assist you.
Does anyone know when they'll send out the email to sign up for time slots?
How should we adjusting our studying and practice test taking in order to better prep for the flex test?
Hi Everyone! I received an email from LSAC today stating that we will be able to sign up on June 26 @ 12 pm. Happy studying, and goodluck to you all!

second this question!
Has anyone received an email or any communication from LSAC on when to register for time slots? Or is it just hearsay that it should be this week?
Do you think the average LSAT score will be higher for LSAT-FLEX tests than traditional tests?
@cubsfanwcg594 @ejleveque1564 @ciacduan968 @shalin234
Use your LSAC email! The username they provided doesn't work!
When you get the 405 error, keep refreshing the page and eventually it will let you in!
Does anyone else keep getting a thing that says 405 not allowed? I'm already panicking and it's not even test day. Cool.
After you're registered, if you realize you're not ready yet, what is the procedure for withdrawing the Proctoru time and informing the LSAC so you don't get an absent mark?
I wrote the May Flex and you can basically choose any time between 7am and 5ish pm (the slots are every ten minutes), so lot's of flexibility.
We chose our times like three weeks in advance though and there was a lot more communcation from LSAC in May. But oh well! As long as no one else has received an email I won't panic!
@somanglee239718 @hd977116 The PowerScore guys on their latest podcast said LSAC said some time next week, but did not give a specific date
does anyone know how to alter the prep tests to make them 3 sections, but still have it count towards your analytics?
Which institution to choose when creating the account on ProctorU? I chose "LSAC" but failed.....
Does anyone know if we need to receive an email from LSAC to be able to set up an account with ProctorU? I wanted to test my equipment but it seems like I need to sign up for ProctorU and I'm not sure what to provide for the "Institution" field which is required for an enrollment. https://support.proctoru.com/hc/en-us/articles/115011772748-Equipment-Requirements
When do we have to submit the form by?
so 'the week of July 12th" does that mean we could have up to the 18th to take it?
hey anyone know if we're allowed to use a pen/mechanic pencil? Is a separate web cam necessary? Do i need to do any prep work for my room? Thanks!
For those who are getting the error that their "user or pass is incorrect", I edited my user by adding the rest of my email, @maribelvilla447848.com to the end, and it let me in
PSA: You can sign up now for July FLEX. If you go to ProctorU's website and click sign in, you can enter your email and choose "forgot my password" and it will send you a new password. I just did this and was able to log in and confirm a time.
Im with pbrittne, maybe I'm missing it, but I am signed up for the July Flex and havent seen any info on how to login into proctoru nor how to set up my date and time for the flex. #help

I have a random question, does anyone know how taking 3 sections in the LSAT FLex vs. 4-5 on the regular LSAT will effect scores? Currently, the score received is based on your raw score of how many answered correctly over 4 sections, if you take out 23-26 questions then it seems to me it would be harder to achieve, for example a 160, on the flex than the regular. Am I wrong? Is it the same and I just am not thinking about it the right way? Initially, I thought the 3 sections would be much better because you aren't wondering which is the experimental section and less time spent taxing your brain to it's fullest, but now I am reconsidering. Thoughts??? Or does anyone have a raw scores conversion chart from a recent LSAT flex?
It should be the same - the # you can get wrong will be less to get the same score, but that is because there will also be fewer questions. Another way to look at it is that the percentile you'd need to get a certain score would be roughly the same for the flex and regular. It would be harder to get the same score if you are particularly strong in LR though since an LR section is removed.
This is the 7sage converter for flex for the prep tests!

Following! Should we relate our LSAC account to the ProctorU?
I did not find my school in the list of institutions either, what should we do?
Thanks for any advice!
