I am a native speaker and I find that JY speaks at very fast pace. Sometimes it's okay and sometimes it gets frustrating and he loses me. How can I slow it down?

I just logged onto my ProctorU account and ran the diagnostic to make sure I'm all good for taking the October LSAT next week (I'm quaking). Everything checked out except for my RAM on my computer, meaning that my laptop is using too much memory with Chrome open. Does anyone else have this issue and know how to fix it? I don't know what more I can do to solve this. I also have Clean my Mac, so I can monitor and clear out my RAM, but it always fills up in minutes. I don't want a technical issue to interfere with test day :(

Hey everyone! I was wondering if people had any takes on the strategy of answering easiest questions first? What’s the minimum amount of time you’ll spend on a question before skipping it in the LR and RC sections? My most recent pts have been pretty consistent in the logic games but RC has been -3 or 4 about half of them and -8 or 9 on half and then LR have been -0 to -4 on most and then a few outliers of -8 and I feel super stressed throughout the sections I struggle on. Could that be because I’m getting in my head on early questions? Bizarrely have been discounting A and E on a lot of questions when I get down to guessing. Anyone feel like making a serious effort to get the easier ones first make a difference?

Hi all,

I've been studying all summer, completed the CC and did 5 timed PT's thus far. My goal score is a 161-163 and although I have been hitting that in all of my blind reviews, I've yet to break past a 156 on an actual take and I am not quite sure why... Upon BR I am consistently hitting -2 to -4 on RC, -2 to -4 on LG and -5 to -8 on LR, but the variance between my timed take and BR is significant.

I'm taking both the Oct and Nov LSAT and of course would like to score in my BR range, any tips on bridging this gap? It seems that its mostly nerves getting the best of me because the questions I typically struggle on in my timed take, I still I correct quite easily during BR, and I often get them incorrect the first time because I am second-guessing myself. The most gains I get from BR'ing are in RC and LG, I suppose because I feel more relaxed without time restrictions and don't feel compelled to rush?

Any tips to bridge that gap would be appreciated. As well as any tips to calm down nervousness, block out useless thoughts and improving confidence!

I don't see a place in lawhub for my OCT 2021 LSAT registration. Was the Aug 2021 administered on lawhub? Will the Oct 2021 be administered on lawhub? Thanks.

I’ve noticed PT91 and PT92 have two LG sections each, but do we ever get this in the real exam?

When these questions appear, I get really confused and have a hard time interpreting them, because they are so abstract. It feels like the author is trying to say something very all knowing and wise, even on silly subjects, but the language is hard to decode. Especially when morality comes up. Is there a way to train myself to solidify these concepts, or any techniques you can use. Greatly appreciated!

Hello Everyone,

I'm taking the October LSAT and plan on taking atleast two more PTs before my test date, should I take the older PTs (I have a few late 70s high 80s saved) which have answer explanations uploaded, or take the newest tests even though they don't have the explanations up and just try and explain them to myself? I feel like there are benefits to both but I'd like to hear another opinion!

My previous tutor who scored 176 on the LSAT Flex and attends HLS now submitted the following wrong answer journal to me. Currently, this is the template I use to to visually represent my reasonings for LR and RC sections. Could you please share yours as well? I have seen folks use Excel, table, etc to do it but personally, I like what I currently use the best.

Hi. I am about to join 7 sage paid services. I am new.

i will probably write lsat in coming November.

Do you guys have any plan to upload the video explanations for

PT90(experimental LR),PT91,PT92-Explanations prior to November LSAT?

I take the November test and need to score at least 160. Basically need to raise my score 15 points within this month. Has anyone else done this before? Were you able to raise a significant amount of points within 1 month? Any motivation and positive feedback will help

Any ideas on the timeline?

Hi folks, as the title says, I am an incredibly slow reader. In order to not get bogged down by the details, I've tried to focus on reasoning structure and what the main point of each paragraph is. However, I spend so much time reading that I barely get to passage 4 (if I do, its only with 4 minutes left and that is not enough to confidently answer all the questions). I am averaging -10 to -12.

I don't know how untimed drills are supposed to help me, but if anyone has any tips, I'd appreciate it

Hey does anybody know what J.Y is using to write on screen with ( The electronic pen)???

I find it very useful for logic games the way you're able to delete/ copy master game boards

I was PT'ing in the high 50's and as soon as I got to the 80's I dropped to 153 consistently from PT 80-83. When I BR i'm in the high 150's. Is this indicative of how I'll do on the actual test? I'm testing this month and I feel like I'm doomed. I can't tell if I'm burning out, but i'm getting frustrated at seeing these scores and makes me feel like my hard work is back tracking. I planned to study until tuesday or wednesday my test is next saturday but now I'm not sure. Any advice?

I goal is honestly to be above 155 but close to 160/ 160 itself.

Taking Oct LSAT. My internet connection is just fine 99.9% of the time however it just went out and now I'm obviously stressed since it's too late to ask for accommodations. So my question is...what happens if the internet drops during the test? is it over?

Hi everyone,

I hope studying is going well! I was wondering if anyone knew what the "typical" range of variance from most recent average PT's compared to the actual test is? The PT average on my four most recent tests is a 165. I haven't taken the LSAT before (taking November exam), so I'm just looking for a little input on other people's experiences. Thanks so much!

Hello -

When in undergrad, I figured I wanted a demanding job that looked good on my resume before law school. So I pursued my current job that I've been at for about a year now and it's more stressful than I anticipated. Especially for the past 5 months, I've been quite anxious and stressed about work. I know my main goal though, is to study for the LSAT and always tell myself to stop worrying about work and just focus on the LSAT. However, it's been hard lately for me to not think and stress about work. I've gotten some advice to set boundaries at work and to even not do as well of a job at work and focus on the LSAT. But I just hate the fact of doing a crappy job at work. I study before work and then if I have time after work I'll try to get some reviewing in.

I know other people have had even more stressful or demanding situations with kids, work, or something else. But I just wanted to ask if anyone has any advice for coping with work stress while studying for the LSAT? I'm fearful that the work stress will affect my LSAT studying.

Thanks!

After receiving my august score which was must lower than anticipated I've had a hard time getting my groove back and am doing much worse on LR than before. what do I do I take the October test next weekend?

Hi everyone,

So I’ve been studying for the LSAT since may. I’ve been studying through Powerscore but my LR is still stuck at -7 to -10. LG is my strongest section so I’m not too worried about that. And RC is my worst section. I wanted to ask, how long does it take to get through the CC? I haven’t done any of the 7Sage CC, I’ve only been doing PT’s and reviewing. I want to start working more efficiently and effectively so I can improve my score. Any tips to improve my LR & RC score will be really helpful! My goal score is 166, and I’m currently at mid 150’s.

Thank you so much for any help in advance!

Does anyone know when 91-94 will be released? I take the October exam in 2 weeks...

Is it really true we are allowed to use command F? Seems like it can be a massive time saver, almost too much so...

Long story short: I'm looking for a time friendly solution to physically printing either problem sets or whole practice tests. For example, do you know of any way I could print a whole practice test with a click of a button that will only print the questions (no extra banners, texts, or other misc things like website banners) ?

Hi, I cancelled my upcoming premium renewal. It said I would have access until Oct. 6. However, after confirming cancellation, it now says I have access until August 6th. Is this a glitch? I was charged and paid Sept. 6 and saw the policy says I keep access until the month I purchased expires, not when I cancel. Any clarification would be appreciated.

EDIT: Now I can't even view a preptest....really hope this is a glitch and not misleading...

Hey everyone,

First time LSAT taker here. I'm taking the October LSAT on 10/10 and am hoping to get some input on when I should take my final PT. I've sort of been slingshotting between the mid 160s and low 170s on my PTs and was hoping to be more consistently in the 170s for game day. However, with the time I have left, I'm just going to do the best I can to get my best possible score and retake if necessary.

I'm curious if any repeat takers should advise on how to spend my last week and a half. I intend to take a PT this Sunday at the same time as my actual test to simulate it as best as possible. However, I also kind of want to take a last, final PT on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week. That said, many people have advised not to take any PTs in the last week leading up to the actual test.

Hoping people can share what worked for them and advise me on any tips that might help me maximize my score.

Good luck to everyone else taking the October test!
