After our first PT, should we be drilling our weakest sections until we get all of the questions on the "hard" setting correct, within the time frame? Or is 4/5 good enough to move on. I'm not sure how many drill rounds per section I should be doing, so that I don't waste clean practice questions but that I also understand how to better approach the sections...

If I just went 27/27 in RC for the 1st time ever, in a section that was 4 star difficulty, should I just end studying for today on the high, even if this was the only thing done? My test is in 2 days and tomorrow I plan on doing some easy questions for LR and RC to build confidence and just keep fresh. I am not sure how I should've best handled this past week seeing as it is the last week before my exam and so am just looking for general advice for last couple days.
I made this wrong answer journal in sheets last night and I like how it came out, so I have decided to share it. I previously did it on paper but I like this much more because its all in one place and I can type a lot faster than write. I kept some examples of how I use it and instructions on how to get question images in there nicely. This format also makes it really easy to reference or print these entries out later. I hope this helps someone. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1SF1LOmsQjlj4avV-gYzKCIquFU5-LYVqUktVxKq0WuY/edit?usp=sharing
I tried to access the drill provided from a reading comprehension live course and it keeps saying I don't have access to it and need to subscribe to unlock it. I have subscribed today and picked the live subscription. Do you need to have the coach subscription to access these? I am not sure why I can't see them?
Hey 7Sagers,
LSAC has recently unveiled their new writing section, Argumentative Writing. This is the first major change to the writing section since 1982!
How does the new Argumentative Writing section differ from the old writing section, and how should you update your approach? Instructor Alex Jacobs and admissions consultant Jake Baska will be leading a session later today to introduce the new writing section. There will also be an in-class practice writing prompt.
This class is free to all users! You can register for the session here.
Can anyone help me figure out how to blind review after entering answers from a paper test? I understand how to convert to digital and see my score, but I'm hoping to be able to enter my paper answers and then blind review them. Right now, whenever I take a paper test and enter the answers, I'm not able to then get a blind review score and it's breaking my heart!
For some reason only some of my videos give me the option to change video playback speed - is anyone else noticing this?
Sometimes for an easier question video I'll watch it at a faster speed and when I go to the next question I want to slow the video down but it's stuck in the faster speed that I changed it to on the last video. And I've noticed only sometimes the playback speed adjuster function shows up and sometimes does not. Is there a pattern to this or something, like are there maybe certain types of videos that don't have that function that I'm not catching on? I'm having that problem right now and I've tried refreshing the page and no matter however much I try to hover on different parts of the video it's not showing. Not urgent problem but can get annoying.

Hey ya'll! Does any one know a way to drill one at a time on here like LSAT Demon? And before anyone asks, I do not want to switch to there because i find thier explainations way too belittling. ;(
I have seen others in discussions mentioning doing a diagnostic when they started studying. I recently purchased my subscription and wasn't exactly sure what that meant. I did a prep test and simulated the conditions of an actual test as best I could as soon as I purchased, but I'm not sure if that is what exactly was meant by diagnostic. I scored a 158 but figured this could easily be a fluke, so I didn't want to take the score seriously. So, what exactly is the process of doing a diagnostic?
Apologies if this is answered somewhere else on the site.
Hi everyone,
I have strictly used pens for like the last 8 years and have gotten accustomed to using white out as well. Is white out permitted during remote LSAT testing for the scratch paper? Thanks.
I have just been trying to take timed sections and not the whole test, is there a way to do this without starting a full test?
So it is honestly my mistake. I am taking the LSAT on June 4th, and I have been studying since January (unfortunately I was unable to manage LSAT studying alongside being a full time student, been very off and on). And I have been scoring mid 140s in the LSAT.
My question is should I cancel my LSAT score for June once I recieve it? I am afraid that when I retake on August that I will recieve a lower score or I will barely improve. I am really hoping I touch a 160 for August. But will it look bad that i took the LSAT twice?
need to make the decision asap. thanks in advance (3(/p)
I am taking the LSAT Wednesday and I have been studying a lot the past two weeks. I am doing really well on sections went from -7 on LR to now around -4 average with some -1 and -2s. RC has gone from -9 to -4 average. My last three sections were -1,-3,-3. Since I have been doing well should I stop studying so I don't get burnt out or keep going as normal because it is working?
Hey all, I've pivoted to drilling individual sections of practice tests and noticed that my splits are almost always better when I take sections separately compared to when I take them all at once (for example, taking all four sections of a PT one at a time, at different times might total -15, whereas taking them all at once to simulate a real LSAT might total -20). When combined, these section scores are better than my typical PT score; I'm obviously capable to getting the questions right, so I was wondering if it was a stamina issue/mental hangup, and how I'd go about fixing it?
How do you guys find ways to handle feeling discouraged? I took a PT after the foundations courses and a few weeks of classes and I didn’t have a good result. I can definitely see an improvement on LR but I’m nowhere close to where I want to be. I know I have a far way to go and so much to learn still but….
Just asking to stay sane haha
If you end up having to retake the exam, what happens if the practice tests that you have left (the ones that are completely fresh/new to you) are very limited? Basically what if you run out of study material but you need to take the exam a second or third time?
I'm taking the LSAT for the first time in August 2025, but I think it's very likely I'll have to retake it. I'm limiting myself to only use odd numbered PTs for full length practice test, sections, and drills. But even then I'm worried about running out of material in the long run.
Hi everyone, I am registered for the June 2025 LSAT and in general I am aiming for a 170. When I registered a few months ago I knew that I wouldn't necessarily be ready to hit 170 in June but thought that it could be good to experience the June test to be better prepared for the August/September test. My idea was to aim for at least a 165 and then try to improve more on the fall tests. Is it worth taking the June test that I already paid for even if I am far from my end goal (scoring low 160s)? I still think it would be valuable experience, but many don't recommend. Would love to hear peoples' thoughts!
I'm taking the LSAT for the first time in June and wondering how I should prepare in the week leading up to the test and the morning of? All tips are appreciated!
I seem to be having trouble on my PT's keeping both LR and RC up at the same time. I've been bouncing around 165 on all my PT's (lowest: 162, highest:169). My best LR section is -1 and my best RC section is -2 so I know I have the raw capacity to score very well, however I cant seem to put it all together on one practice test and break out of this mid-160s plateau. It feels like I finish a PT, review what I got wrong and then the next PT shows improvement in that area but I lose ground somewhere else and end up getting the same score I have been getting for the last month. Any advice on how to stop this infernal game of whack-a-mole and club both LR and RC over the head in the same PT would be much appreciated. Any other advice relating to breaking plateaus is welcomed as well :)
Where can I review my answers for notes or wrong answer journal that I fill out when reviewing the results for a drill?
Currently getting great results on my drills but when I take and actual practice test it's like I lose all of the progress I've made in the drills. Does anyone have tips for getting my stamina up so I can do better on the actual exam?
Doing a question throughout the curriculum, I don't see the button or option for 'blind review.'
Is anyone able to point me in the right direction?
I skipped the blind review of a PT because I wanted to see my score but didn't realize I wouldn't be able to blind review after it lol...
I still haven't checked my mistakes so I could still benefit from a blind review. BR score is just greyed out in analytics now.
Any way for me to BR now or is it too late?
I completed a drill and was in the middle of the blind review, walked away, came back; when I came back it was gone. Do these save somewhere?
Okay, this is a niche question, but does anyone know how to indent only the first line of a paragraph on the LSAT Writing section? When I did a practice in the PSI Secure Browser, I was only able to indent the paragraph as a whole, rather than the first line only?
Thanks in advance!
