While I was doing the problem set I found the "pin" function before each answer result as shown:

I wonder what will happen after I've pinned those. Will I be able to generate a list of those pinned questions afterwards?

(sorry I don't know how to post an image. I put a link of the image as instructed but it's not showing here)

So I was doing the timed problem sets and I found there were different theme options ranging from 7sage to standard to choose. I wonder if the "standard" here means the format that looks exactly like the real test.

Ten years ago, I had the dream to quit teaching public school and attend law school to pursue a career as an education lawyer. I had taken 4 PTs about a month before the exam and I was shocked when I scored a 138.- I had no idea that my expectation was so off the wall crazy bonkers. Then I enrolled in a Kaplan course, took the test again and got a 148. I signed up to take it again, and sat the test but canceled my score. I was rejected from every school, except one, and I didn’t go because I was a crazy delusional that some schools were better than others. I didn’t want to go into the “4th tier toilet,” so pride stopped me from attending at all. I felt then that if that stopped me then I didn’t really want to be a lawyer. I kept teaching, earned an MA in policy instead, and started a second career in higher education as a student affairs professional. Here I am again, hoping that my flex score is at least a 152, knowing that I have to put the dream away if it doesn’t result in getting into the part time evening program in my city. I have a mortgage, a child, a great husband, and hoping to move up in my current career have another child and attend pt law. Maybe we can’t have everything, and that’s what I’m trying to convey.

For what it’s worth, I have learned a ton about myself and my understanding of this test and my ability to reason. I’ve consistently been blind reviewing at a 160-165 range, so the understanding is there. I have learned to trust myself, and that is huge!

I was listening in on podcast #4 with LSATcantwin. Around 38 minutes in he mentions the thing for him at 18 was WoW, JY mentions Diablo 2. I put countless hours into Diablo 2, but I definitely don't see myself able to put in that time now. That doesn't mean I'm not hype for the remaster. Every now and then I'll play an hour or two of apex or warzone just to break from the routine.

What was a guilty pleasure for you (and maybe still is)?

Hi All!

I got a 163 on the LSAT in November 2020. I applied to schools but was not accepted where I wanted to go, so I am thinking of re-applying for the next year. I want to take the LSAT again in June.

Any tips for how I can raise my score until then? I'm reaching for a 168-170. Please help. Thank you.

it's a shot in the dark but are there any fellow Alaskans out there prepping/testing?

I started 145 and my goal was 155. I'm now PT'ing in the low 160's with skipping a full logic game due to time. I can do them, but I've not yet truly practiced LG yet. I wrote a little reflection on my progress and some kind of SWOT analysis and am curious if I am just absolutely crazy or not. This whole thing is crazy honestly. 150 was unattainable and was a struggle. Then I quit PT's and just worked fundamentals for two months and boom. I skipped the 150's and am now scoring in the low 160's.

If anyone who has experience with going through the 160's and into "that next level" is bored, I'd greatly appreciate your opinion. I just don't want to post it publicly. Thank you.

It would be great to be able to replicate the actual test as much as possible

Based on my understanding, 7Sage's flex converter as well as that of other prep test companies are based on estimates of how they think tests have been scaled now that there are only three graded sections. When taking PTs is it better to just stick to the older scale (4 section scale) versus the new estimated conversions? I took the regular four section PT last week and then converted it using the 7Sage flex calculator. When I converted my score (using my best LR section), my score went up by three points. This is why I'm nervous about using the flex scale to grade my prep tests. Would greatly appreciate any input regarding how to grade PTs so that they best reflect your score. Thanks!

Thank you 7Sage for providing great lessons, guidance, and practices but due to financial limitations, I will need to leave the 7Sage. If I become better financial then I may return but between the stress of funds and LSAT, I am going to step away for a while. I am still going to pursue my goal of becoming an attorney but this is just another TEMPORARY delay. Once again thank you! Good luck everyone.

I just received my LSAT writing back, and it was approved. However, I spelled someone’s name incorrectly by accidentally swapping two letters. Is this not a big deal, or is it something that law schools will look at negatively? I hope it’s not a problem, as long as I wrote an otherwise cohesive essay.

Hi all,

With today being the last day to sign up for April, I'm questioning If I should be signing up. April was my original goal date to take the LSAT. However, I've been studying since July 2020, and my score has been stuck at 157 for the last couple of months. I'm about seven years out of undergrad, and I work full time at a pretty busy, deadline-driven job. I generally study about an hour to an hour and a half each day. I have a 3.2 from undergrad, and I am hoping to get at least a 165 on the LSAT.

Given all this, is it reasonable to think that I could jump from a 157 to a 165 by the April 2021 LSAT date? Now that I've signed up for 7 Sage and am using the Powerscore books, I'm approaching studying a little differently. (Before this, I worked through the LSAT Trainer and old practice tests). I plan to apply for next year's cycle, so I still have time take other tests. But I also don't want to spend another four months studying If it's not necessary since I'm feeling kind of burnt out from juggling everything.

I also want to know how you knew when you were ready to take the test? Were you scoring where you wanted to when you signed up?

So I've been studying since January with a goal to take the test by October but I've been finding it difficult to study for more than 1-2 hours a day and have fallen behind on the core curriculum and have had to readjust my study schedule several times. Initially, I should've been done with the core curriculum by February but now I won't be done until April and may possibly have to keep pushing it even further because I just can't hit the 26 hours/week goal. Is it crucial to go through every item on the syllabus or can I skip a couple example problems and problem sets here and there? I just don't want to be stuck in the core curriculum for too long and waste precious time I could be spending taking practice tests.

Hello,

I'm offering a few hours a week (or maybe more) of free tutoring in LR and RC as I prepare for the April Flex. My current PT average is 169 and I have hit 170+ multiple times. I feel this will help me as I prepare the next few weeks to maybe eek out a few more points. Looking for students scoring in anywhere between 150-165 as these are the people I feel I can help the most. Message me if interested with your current PT average with a breakdown of your average number of questions missed in LR and RC.

Happy studying :)

If law schools typically open for applications in the fall, and decisions typically come out in spring, what reason do people that take the LSAT in winter/spring take it then for? I figure if I want to perform at my best then the best time to take is as close to when applications open as possible (making room for the possible retake if needed) so that I have the more time to study for it. But it seems like a pretty substantial portion of test takers take the exam in winter/spring. Is it just personal schedule circumstances or am I missing something else?

@ People who took the February LSAT or are planning to take the April LSAT.

This is not an inspirational post. This great community has plenty of that... just do a search. I suppose it's a request.

I've had a couple worrying and heartbreaking conversations with students/applicants this past week. These are challenging times; this test can seem insurmountable, this application cycle sucks, and people, in general, can be dicks.

But you are not your score, GPA, or admissions outcomes. Your worth isn't defined by the approval of others. Realize that if you've decided that you will succeed, nothing will stop you. Anxiety and stress happen when we worry about things we cannot control. We cannot control how a school goes about admissions decisions, family negativity, or how easily this test comes to us. We can control our health (moral, physical, and mental), our personal development, engagement in our passions, and relationships with others. No event or circumstance is inherently good or bad... it's our reaction that makes it so. As important as it seems now, this test and your applications cycle will ultimately be just another blip in the great story of your life. When we look back, what will matter is how we handled ourselves and how we reacted to circumstances that were less than ideal.

Sometimes it's hard to see those things, and thats ok. If you need help... if you are considering self-harm or some action of significant consequence that cannot be undone, reach out for help. This is one of many standard crisis hotlines:1800273TALK.

I cannot post contact info in the forum, but if you are reading this and need someone to talk to, DM me. I promise I will get back to you. If this post is still up, the offer stands. Whether you just lurk on this forum or post like an all-star. Whether its your first day here or third year. No matter what you're struggling with. I fought in Afghaistan and was an EMT, police officer, and counselor. Nothing you can tell me will be weird. If you feel like you have no place to turn to, please, as a favor to me, send me a message and lets talk.

Unsure of what people generally do when studying for the lsat, work or take work off and study full time?

It seems like a lot of people want to appear noble and work full time while studying on the side, and that may work for normal college classes, but i know the lsat is much different. It seems taking work off completely allows you to maintain low stress levels to achieve the best results.

Is it more beneficial to take practice tests along the way or wait to do them all at the end?

hi, i was wondering what the available time range for flex tests was for the international lsat-flex in previous administrations! i'm in kst but please lmk the time range that you had in your timezone if you took the international flex!

Studying for the LSAT can be so overwhelming. I often question if I'm studying correctly, studying the right materials, kicking myself for narrowing down the answers and always seeming to pick the wrong one of the two. But today, for the first time, I answered every single LG question correctly on a practice test. Was it my best score ever? No, but that's okay. Friends, please allow yourselves the little victories. You deserve them!

Hi Sagers!

Curious if anyone has used a computer monitor during their LSAT flex? Does anyone know if this is allowed?

Thanks!

Does anyone know how long a statement of need letter should be when requesting accommodations? Also, does anyone know how long LSAT takes for decision? Thanks so much.

Does anyone know if/when LSAC will release copies of the tests from 2020?

I am scheduled to take the April flex and have been practicing/will be taking my exam on my Mac. It is a MacBook Air that is using macOS Big Sur Version 11.1. I have seen some horror stories on Reddit regarding the use of a mac on the flex, but it is my only available computer. I just wanted to reach out to this community to see if anybody has any advice to try to prepare my computer to be compatible with the Flex/ProctorU requirements as much as possible in advance. Any advice is greatly appreciated... just trying to ease some of my tech nerves!
