😖 Frustrated

New Lawhub interface (aug 2026)

Is anyone else concerned/frustrated with the new law hub interface? I just took my first practice section in the new interface... I have my concerns.

First, why did they make it extremely inconvenient to "block out" wrong answers? It took me on average 15-30 more seconds per question, simply because I had to keep clicking back and forth to be able to "block out" wrong answers, and go back to being able to choose the right answer.

To try and combat this I was going to highlight why I chose the wrong answer (as I normally do in the practice), and now that's not an option either. Which brings me to my second issue... why can we not highlight in the answer choice anymore? this was extremely useful for going back to flagged questions, as I would highlight certain words in the 2 AC's I was stuck between.

The test is already difficult in its self, I feel like they should have just kept the eye symbol to "block out" wrong answers. this new feature definitely does not make my experience "smoother and easier", it makes it more time consuming.

I think the fact it has more accessibility regarding color filters, font, etc. is awesome, but the aforementioned changes are burdensome and borderline unnecessary.

    Hi, apparently a lot of concerns around these issues were heard by LSAC and they are fixing the bugs and re-releasing the format this month. Here is their latest video on what they're fixing:

    Hope this helps!

    I feel exactly the same! At this point, I'm trying to get into the habit of not blocking out wrong answers ...

    I hate it so much. Especially having to toggle between eliminating and selecting AC

    I completely agree... I just took a drill and bombed it, but did better after using the old interface. It's frustrating, and a score changer for sure
