I wish to get into a US law school in Fall 2022. I will start preparing for the LSAT now snd aim to Give the October 2021 test. My questions are :

Please let me know any thoughts any one has. It will really help me decide if taking the October 2021 LSAT reasonable and if aiming for a T-14 law school plausible.

Any help will be appreciated.

I'm posting in search of a book recommendation from all you good people. Does anyone know of a book that covers different fields of the law, and what kind of work they actually do? Even if we are to narrow our discussion to litigation vs corporate/transactional, how does an aspiring lawyer choose?

I will offer my own recommendation for "Most Law School Advice is Bullshit". I received it as a gift before taking the LSAT and it changed my whole perspective on this process.

Shout out to everyone else waiting to hear back on their April 10 test.

Hi everyone,

I recently finished the CC and took PT 36. I scored a 165 with a blind review score of 169 (I have a target score range of 166-168). However, I previously took this test preparing for the July 2019 exam, and I am wondering if there is any value to retaking exams I took in the summer of 2019? I took around 10 practice exams between PT 36-55 in the summer of 2019 and I am wondering if I should skip retaking these ones.

For context, although some of the subject matters sounded familiar, I did not remember much else.

Thank you in advance!

About two years ago I agreed to be a groomsmen at my friends wedding. I just learned it was rescheduled for Saturday, August 14th...

Does anyone have any estimates on what day/days the LSAT will be administered based on past test dates. I know this is the first non-flex after the start of the pandemic, does that mean there will be only one test day?

Any educated guesses would be extremely helpful as I try to plan ahead.

Are PrepTests from the 90s still good practice for the current exam? I know the test can change a little bit throughout the years, I just don't want to hurt my progress by practicing on questions that won't simulate the real exam. please let me know, thank you.

Does anyone know if it's OK to use the grayscale screen setting on your Mac during the LSAT flex? Basically, your screen is in black and white, and I'm not sure if the proctor would see that. I don't have an accommodation; it just makes my eyes feel less strained.

How do I grade on 7sage preptests done on Lawhub? I want to take it on the actual site to practice with format, but I still want the analytics/tracking. Thanks!

Title gets to the point. Recently I've found myself in a slump -- less fired up about studying, hovering around the same section averages, PT scores dipping a bit from inconsistency, etc. I only have a few PTs left and I want to make them count. I guess my question is:

Have you experienced a study slump w/ the LSAT? How'd you break it and get back to trending up? I know those are broad, loaded questions lol.

Recently got into a bad slump and am looking to get better with both sections. Please share your (preferably affordable) recommendations. Thanks!

Had a cancellation and a no show, that have me all dressed up (not really... I'm in board shorts) with no place to go.

I'll be in here: DONE

All are welcome.

Hi! Do you all Blind review every test? I’ve found that between working full time while studying, Blind reviewing and then going over correct answers takes a lot of time to do and limits the amount of lessons/PTs I take.

Do you think it would be okay to just do the Blind Review every other test instead of every test?

I actually do not know where to click to do it I sometimes do it on accident but don't know how I did it.

Would really like to apply this skill to LR currently scoring in in the high 160s trying to break 170s any help is much appreciated.

Thanks

I am feeling unbelievably low right now and I would appreciate some advice on how to move forward.

I've been using the CC since January 2021, but overall I've been studying full time since September 2020. At the moment, I'm a little over 50% completed with the CC. I have not taken a PT since December (150) so I just took PT 36 to see where I would be scoring.

I scored a 147. I feel so fucking dumb. My LG improved significantly (from -14 to -7), but I am still bombing RC (-14) and LR (-15). I thought with at least completing a little over half of the CC I would have some type of increase in score.

I know I should restrategize how I'm studying because its clearly not efficient. I'm thinking I should continue foolproofing LG and drill LR and RC sets with in depth review instead of doing the CC for it. I've been doing CC in order and have been focusing way too much time strictly on LG. I think I need to force myself to rotate sections.

Any advice and words of encouragement would be greatly appreciated.

Title : )

It's just that people tend to title their discussions, and even question labeling, a bit differently (spacing, etc.) and search results turn out more than I want, so it's not always easy to search for relevant discussions before deciding whether to post my own.

Beyond this, I think it would be more efficient for us to be able to see all discussions in a single place to evaluate which ones are most helpful. As with the LR Qs that do have video explanations.

My highlight and underling features are not showing up when I go to do problem sets on the site. There is also no option to cross out answer choices or to complete the section early. All of these features were available for me two days ago. Is this happening to anyone else and does anyone know how to fix this?

So, when I Blind Review right now, I BR every single question, even the ones that I don’t flag. I take note of the answers that I change that I didn’t flag, but I just started timed tests and to me it doesn’t make any sense not to do an in-depth analysis of the entire test. I mean, I guess I could go through the step of just flagging every question, but it kind of feels silly to do that just so I can give myself permission to go over the entire test. Plus, I genuinely want to know which questions I had doubts about in the moment and if I flag everything then I probably won’t remember.

I get that the whole point is to test the accuracy of your confidence, but to me at this stage it feels more valuable to be analyzing every question. I figure at some point after I’ve gained enough experience, I’ll stop BRing questions I feel confident in, and that’s where the method of just reviewing flagged questions will kick in.

I’d love to hear other people’s thoughts on this. Am I putting myself at a disadvantage, or does it not matter at this stage? I think there’s stuff to be learned from every question, even from the super easy questions I probably got right. Why not take the opportunity to look at those as well?

thought I'd share some self-affirmations with those taking the Flex this weekend:

I've studied hard and worked diligently and persevered in spite of setbacks, and I will continue to push forward because I am capable and I have a strong grasp of the fundamentals.

I am in control of the LSAT. I am the pilot of this plane.

I am calm and I am collected.

I have tremendous potential to excel and I am confident in my own skills.

I have faith in me. I believe in myself.

I deserve kindness and gentleness and I will take care of myself no matter what happens.

I have a bright future ahead of me and I am excited for it.

I am ready for my future.

Hi all, im Jeremy and ive signed up for 7sage after I found the Khan Academy course to be a little simplistic in nature. (honestly didnt do the entire course there, just did Logic Games and decided to quit and pursue 7sage)

Ive done the GMAT before and for the GMAT its best to kind of take a mix and match of a few courses to get a competitive edge and not be caught unaware at the time of test taking

Has anyone done any other LSAT courses before reaching the 7Sage Lsat? Have you, then in that case, found that the knowledge gained there is superior/inferior or at par with this course?

Thanks in advance

Jeremy

as you guys move through the problem sets in the CC do you do them timed, blind review, then check? or do you do them all untimed? just trying to figure out the most beneficial strategy. Thanks

So I have already finished The Lsat Trainer and took a few PTs. I just got 7sage on April 2, and I have access to it till August 2. I am taking the LSAT in June AND August. However, I don't know if I will have time to get through the entire 7sage core curriculum and take a bunch of practice tests. What should I do? Is it better to make sure i do the full 200+ hours of full curriculum and take less PTs, or are PTs/blind review more effective than the lessons?

Hello all, I just recently took my 1st lsat and I am preparing for June for a retake and I am aiming for 160+ From the low 150s and I wanted to know what is a good study schedule after the CC , should I focus on one section for a long time by doing timed sections and drills then move on to another or should I rotate sections in with PTs... I want to study smarter this go around and any tips are welcomed

Hey everyone! I was wondering what everybody's opinion was on this question. I actually studied for about 3 weeks in Jan because I thought I was going to take the April LSAT, then had a really long break in between because of school + work and switched to the June LSAT. My diagnostic had a 151, and I am aiming big (175)- I would be a super splitter (3.15) so it's a need for the schools I am going for. I have the LSAT Trainer book, the Powerscore books, and am supplementing Khan Academy (currently doing 1-2 hours a day for the past week or so when I started back up).

Does anyone recommend any applications that can help with reducing RAM? Also, if RAM is slightly over (1-2%), would that significantly impact LSAT Flex? Thanks!

I am too tempted to look at my score after each practice test to do blind review via the 7Sage interface (I still do it, but not in the streamlined and convenient way that 7Sage offers). Can you please add the ability to see your score (or at least the option to do so) before doing "blind review?" Thanks!
