Hi I have registered for November's test. My questions is how early should I log into the test? Or how early would I be allowed to log in? 10min, 20min, 30min, or just right on time? I learned that checking in might take up some time. Thank you!
HELP PLEASE!
I took my first official LSAT in October and I definitely did not do as good as I knew I could've. I was super nervous and I blacked out at the second section and I felt so disappointed in myself that I low-key gave up on the other sections, prompting me to get a score of 152. I'm going to take it again in January and hopefully I won't be as nervous and really be able to use my brain, knowledge, and skills I've learned for the past 8 months of studying.
SO, what should I do, should I cancel my 152 or keep it? I want to go to USC Gould and I know the LSAT range is a lot higher than what I got, but I know the next time I take it I'm giving it my all and not second-guessing myself as much as I did. So what do you guys suggest?
Howdy! Just hit my target score of 173 on the October LSAT - first attempt after 4 months of study. I worked with an incredible tutor to get here and I wanted to pass that forward. I haven't professionally tutored before so I'd like to offer some free tutoring to gain experience and see how I feel about it. I want to work with people aiming to score at their highest potential no matter what it takes :) I have some hours in the day to currently devote to this so please feel free to get in touch!
I am scheduled to write the November LSAT this Saturday and I still don't feel completely ready for it. I have not yet written my LSAT writing and haven't looked into it yet as I have been pretty focused on studying for the LSAT itself. I know there is the option to write the LSAT writing after the exam, but you may not receive your LSAT score until your writing sample is completed. Although the application deadline to my top two school choices is Dec 1, but I am waiting to get my score back to decide (depending on my score) if I want to cancel it and rewrite for the January exam. I am wondering how long it usually takes for LSAT score to come back and if I would be setting myself up by waiting and writing my written portion after my exam Saturday.
Any advice for someone whose score has been plateuing? I've been scoring in the low 160s consistently and just want to hear from those who have improved from this point. The questions I'm getting wrong are evenly spread out amongst the sections.
Hi, everyone, I'm new here! I've been studying for the LSAT for a couple months now (went through the Logic Games Bible and have taken about 5 practice tests - averaging 162, goal is 170), and so I'm wondering where I should start here. Given that I have only about two months until the January LSAT, should I work through the Core Curriculum, or should I take a PT to see where I'm weak and work on those specific areas?
I'd love to hear any advice anyone has.
Hey guys I could use some advice. I've been on the fence about signing up for my LSAT in either January or February and I am currently scoring between 159-161 with my BR ranging from 165 - 167. My goal score is a 165 but I'm not sure how far out in advance I should sign up for the test as this will be my very first one. Do I go ahead and sign up and aim to make the necessary improvements between now and Jan/Feb or wait until I've done so with my PT's? I'm also not sure what my study plan should look like between now and then if I do go ahead and sign up. I plan on applying for the next cycle so I am not in a rush to get my score sent to any schools right now. Any helpful advice about testing dates and study plans would be greatly appreciated!
How far in advance should/can I sign up for the LSAT? Also, how is the format right now? Is it still fully online and all four sections?
Do you guys type the stimulus and AC or is there a way we can copy the words and save some time? The screenshot is not quite convenient for me because I'm not using an iPad. Thanks!>
Will doing all the problem sets mess up my ability to take the practice LSATs? If anyone here did all the problem sets and then encountered the same questions in the LSAT, please let me know if it messed with your ability to accurately take the practice LSATs.
Thank you.
Hi, is anyone interested in reviewing PT 93 together today or tomorrow before the November exam? I got a 178 but I was really lucky & want to go over some LR & RC questions. Please PM me and I'll send you a Zoom link :)
Can we use an ipad on the digital lsats? I'm confused how we're supposed to highlight or do any marking quickly if we have to use a mouse on a laptop rather than a stylus that can function like a pen
Hi,
I've been keeping track of all my answers that I've gotten wrong on PTs and in the CC, and hoping to make some drills to go back and do them a second time. I've already made a drill using 44 of the questions, but I can't edit it to be shorter/longer after creation, and any other drill I want I have to go through and input each individual question I got wrong in the CC.
Is there a faster way to do this that I don't know about? Maybe a way of creating custom tags/making all of these questions available in a certain spot to make a drill of any particular size?
Does anyone know the score conversion for PT 93? Is it reliable to score the test based on PT 91/92's scales? I took it on LawHub.
Thanks!
I registered the exam on Feb but I feel I am not prepared for it and kinda wanna cancel it. Will the schools I will apply know that I cancelled and never took a test?
Hi, I am international and my official lsat score is 173. My friend said that the higher the lsat score is the better. In my recent last pt score is 176~178, so should I take again? I have a reservation for the November exam. Does 176 and 173 make a lot of difference? It's so stressful to take the lsat again. I spent more than three years of my time and effort until I was almost 153 to 173.Please give me some advice.Thank you :)
My LSAC Prep Plus subscription expires sooner (before the November exam) and I am not sure if I need it for one more year. The thing is I am taking the November test and until that day, I need it. Is there any other options to maintain the subscription for one more month? Thank you.
I often usually get 2/5 right on diffucilty 4 and 5 of the practice questions for finding mainconclusion and supporting main conclusion concepts. Although I do decently well on difficulty 1-3 questions. Am I on track for a decent lsat score or should I be correctly answering all of these practice questions given at teh end of each lessonl
I'm in need of some advice. I initially took the LSAT in February 2020. I had no knowledge of the test and received some poor advice that I should take it blindly and see what I get. I scored a 142. I knew that I needed to retake it. I studied for some time, and in October 2021 I retook it. I cancelled the score because I didn't feel good about it. Then I took November 2021 and scored a 152. I was happy with the increase, but it was still not near my goal of 165+ so I decided to take another year to study. This time, I took the September 2022 test and only scored a 156. After what feels like forever studying for this test, I did not get as close to the score range I was PTing. I feel like I have screwed myself because of my previous takes. I know law schools frown upon taking the test over 3-4 times. I'm not sure what to do next.
To sum it up: (142 > Cancel > 152 > 156)
I have a good GPA, nothing that will compensate for a poor LSAT but it's still decent. I'm not interested in any T14 schools, most I have looked into are in the 25-50 range, which I know my score is still on the low end for. I cannot take another gap year to study. I plan on applying this month and November, so my options would be to apply to schools now to get my applications in, and take either January or February 2023, or totally roll the dice applying earlyish with a 156. I have ADHD, and I've struggled with this test both mentally and emotionally and I'm not sure if it would be worth it to take a 5th time. If you can offer me any sort of guidance I will be grateful! Thanks for taking the time to read this!
Long time lurker, first time poster. Here to tell you all to dream big.
TLDR: Scored 173 on the Oct LSAT, which is the highest I have EVER scored. My miracle worker is 7Sage tutor @"Chris Nguyen"! His encouragement, guidance, and tailored tips (in test taking AND general LSAT tips) helped me score the highest I ever have - and hopefully for the last time ever!
Very Long, Might Read Version:
Decided to apply to law school in early 2021 and signed up for 7Sage. Some people are able to juggle 40 hours of work with intense studying and even childcare on the side. Not me. I was overworked, underpaid, and generally Not Having A Good Time. I wanted to apply in a few months, so I quit my job and moved into my parents' attic to study full time.
I don't think people talk enough about recovering from burn out, especially in this post-COVID world. I thought quitting my job would fix my sad and tired brain. It did not. I took the Nov 2021 LSAT and then the Jan 2022 LSAT as a last hail Mary. She did not answer my prayers, which makes sense because I never go to church. I scored 163 both times, which crushed me, as my diagnostic was 165.
Shortly after my Jan LSAT, I lost someone very close to me and spent the next few months grieving and taking a break from the LSAT. I was not in a good headspace and needed to find the joy in life again. Below are a few things that helped:
I began studying again in May 2022. I finished the core curriculum in a few months. I was scoring in the mid 160s and wanted to get at least a 173. the idea of self studying seems really noble -- the whole idea of "I built a study schedule, identified my weaknesses, implemented structure and discipline, and was able to get a full scholly for free all by myself" made me want to BE a 170s-scoring self studier. But I didn't really know how to study post core curriculum (esp in knowing which PTs to not "waste" early on), and so I signed up for a free 30 min consult call with 7sage tutoring.
I was matched up with Chris. Our weekly sessions added much-needed structure in my life, and he assigned daily homework tailored to my needs. I think our most important lessons have been on test taking mentality. One thing he tells me often is that we need to "practice letting go" -- of old habits, of time-consuming questions, and of negative thoughts like "UGH I HATE THIS TEST!" (direct quotation).
All of this contributed to my scoring the highest I ever have -- a 173 -- on the Oct LSAT, no less. My highest PT was 170 on an early 80s PT, but I was in the mid 160s for the vast majority of my PTs. While my PT test taking conditions were never ideal (and so maybe I underscored on those takes), never in a million years did I expect to hit my target LSAT score so soon. I didn't feel great about my Oct LSAT: I misread an easy rule on my first LG game and had to rush the rest of the section, and I didn't have great time management on LR and RC. I even considered cancelling. This is normal! Sometimes the best scores come from dissatisfying test taking experiences.
So if you lack self discipline and can't self-study your way into the 170s -- no shame. Big same. it’s ok to ask for help. If you're able to afford it, 7Sage tutoring might pay off for you, as it did for me.

I just wanted to give a big shoutout to 7sage and Chris Bearne! I took the August LSAT and was not super happy with my score and I decided to register for the October test, I just received my score back and made a 9 point jump (95th percentile). I am never taking the LSAT again, and I could not have done it w/out Chris, he is such an amazing tutor. Specifically, I was struggling with RC & LR, and he improved both sections significantly.
When will we have access to the PT93 Explanations videos?
Thinking about taking it before Nov LSAT
Got a 169. Not my PB but pretty great considering how bad I had to pee during the first 2 sections. Much love and best of luck to future test takers.
