I am scoring in the range of 155-159 and my goal is low 160s (160,161,162,163,164) with a month and change left for the test, what is the best approach to take to get those extra points?

Hey All,

I'm taking the November 2020 exam, which puts me at 80 days before the exam. My cold diagnostic score was a 146, but I only managed to finish half the exam because of timing. I started LSAT Trainer by Mike Kim last week and have also been going through the 7Sage CC. I wanted to see if anyone has any studying advice in terms of approach. My goal is to hit a 170 by the exam date. If November does not go as planned, I can sit in for January. However, I'd like to get in my apps in as early as possible.

If anyone has any generic or specific advice that worked for them, I'd greatly appreciate it! Cheers!

This may have been answered before but I am confused as to whether or not I should still be PTing while doing the CC? or do I just do the curriculum up until they give me the PTs? I'm at roughly 20% into the CC

Hello Fellow 7Sagers,

If someone has taken the LSAT and can respond, that would be helpful.

Q: During the test, is it better to skip questions one is unsure of keeping time constraints in mind?

Not sure if anyone is concerned about this but, anyone else in the east Texas/Louisiana area worried about how the storm will effect testing this weekend? I'm wondering if there is any information on what the LSAC will do if the hurricane takes out the power/wifi in these areas and people are unable to test? If anyone has any clue if they would offer a free retake or offer a later day in August testing please let me know!

My question is all in the title. I am just wondering what ya'll do the day before taking the LSAT. I am taking mine on the 29th, and any advice would be greatly appreciated!

I've gotten through a little over 70% of the core-curriculum, but haven't begun full-proofing or doing timed tests. Should I expect a sudden increase having gone through just the lessons and problem sets?

I began with a 149-150 diagnostic and am gunning for a 160+ by either October or November.

Hi! I'm in a desperate state and need a tutor. I need all-around help. I'm working through 7Sage - I just need a little (or a lot more) help.

A couple of August test takers, including me, experienced difficulty logging into our Proctor U accounts despite having already registered for a time slot. Called LSAC earlier today and my issue has been resolved this evening. Since the test is coming so soon, please double check if you are able to log into Proctor U and that your time slot is secure to avoid any last minute hustles. Best of luck to everyone!

Hi everyone, I'm wondering if someone who wrote an LSAT flex could help me understand something. I'm wondering so a proctor will be someone who is basically looking at me while I do the exam, will they know not to speak/bother me during the exam? I also have some things in my room like a clock, do you guys think it's best I cover it/remove it from the wall? While waiting for a proctor, are we able to run to the bathroom or do we have to sit waiting? Thanks! #help

I was born in Guatemala, and have lived here in the US for the majority of my life as undocumented. I am a part of an indigenous community back home. I have seen that many people consider URM as Mexican/African American... so what am I?

Hi, everyone. For those who have taken the LSAT-Flex, does ProctorU display a timer during the test or can you only monitor time if you have a watch?

I tried a practice test shortly after starting 7sage to see how the interface looked and felt, with no intention of finishing the PT. My score of 120 is sticking around despite not having actually taken the test "for real." Not a big deal, but it's kinda messing with my analytics and the trends I see. Is there anyway to clear this out of the system?

Hey guys, my name is Kyle and I'm looking to form another study/accountability group. I currently have a group and they are fantastic. However, I'd like to get different points of view when it comes to LR to look and see which thought processes are effective.

I got a 157 diagnostic on my first PT and I am looking to score in the 168-175 range. Let me know if you'd like to form a group!

hey does anyone know what the format of the lsat flex is? just want to confirm that it is one LR, one RC, and one LG and one random section?

For the October flex, when do we pick times? Will we get an email from LSAC?

Hi,

I'm always confused about these questions. I don't understand if the question is asking you all the potential objects that can belong in the group, or the potential objects in the group in one instance.

For example (Prep Test 43, Question 18): "Which of the following could be a complete and accurate list of each of the office buildings that the falafel tuck serves?"

A. X

B. X, Z

C. X,Y,Z

D. Y,Z

E. Z

A, B, and E can be eliminated based on the fact that the stimulus provides that F must serve Y. The answer is D because the question meant "in one scenario". However, I read it as "all the potential trucks" the Falafel truck could serve. In one possibility, F serves Y,X and in another Y,Z. So potentially, F could serve all 3 leading me to answer choice C.

I'm definitely reading this question wrong. Can someone please explain to me the wording difference between when they ask for all potentials vs. in one possibility?

Hi everyone! I'll be taking the LSAT on Monday and I'm freaking out a bit. Everyone keeps telling me i'll be OK and that it's just another test. Frankly for me, it isn't. I am recent college grad in Florida. Graduated with a 4.1 GPA, political science student of the year, won new student organization of the year (founded an org for Latina in my campus community), and I am undocumented. This is the scary part. Public law schools aren't even an option for me, only private. I do not qualify for any merit scholarships from any public institution because of my legal status. If you're wondering i've been in the US for more than 20 years. I decided to go to law school because of a forced relationship I had with the law growing up. This included deportations, and separations within my family. I've never been one to talk about my anxiety but I feel so much pressure and I am afraid this will affect my performance. I have been scoring in the upper 160s. But SO AFRAID.

Any tips on meditating?

Hello,

I am looking for a study buddy who lives within 1-2 hours of my time zone. I am MT and live in Denver. I am looking for a study buddy who would like to go through PT's with me where we would go over our answers and discuss why an answer choice is right or wrong. Furthermore, keep one another accountable. I am currently signed up for the August and October exam. Will be possibly signing up for November as well in case these exams do not go well. I score between 160-165 on PT's and would like to consistently reach 165 and over. On LG I am scoring between 0 and -2. LR I struggle with anywhere from -5 to -10. RC -5 to -10.

Please message me if you are interested in being my study buddy.

Thank you!

Hi! I do significantly better on timed full sections and drills than I do on full exam LR. I really feel like I choke under the pressure and find myself second-guessing questions which I should not be. Does anyone have advice for dealing with the pressure of a full exam?

I'm taking the August test on August 31st, so one week from now. I have been PTing multiple times a week for almost two months. I have beaten the score I want, but have also had some duds underneath it.

Only issue is right now I am so burnt. I never wanna see LSAT stuff again. I don't know if I should take a break or push through and keep studying. I feel like taking a break is not good right now, but believe me that I am so tired of doing LSAT stuff every day.

Is it good to take a break so close to the test?

Hi everyone,

So I just took PT 70 and scored a PB of 158- which is above my target score. I've taken 10 PTs now and generally average in the mid 150s.

I am torn on whether to take a couple more or to just thoroughly BR PT 70 and do full sections until my test on September 2nd. My reasoning for not taking more is that I am kind of riding a high right now, and I'm worried if I take another and perform worse that that could seriously hinder my confidence going into the exam.

On the other side, I've only taken a few of the newer PTs...

I'd appreciate any advice!

Can anyone advise if I upgrade from month by month to 12 months period will I get charged $99 LSAC fee. I already paid for it when purchased monthly subscription. Thanks

It might be the lack of coffee, or alternatively the 8 hrs of study so far, but for some reason I am having trouble translating this sentence.

(The tariff classification of an item should depend primarily on how the item is marketed)

I am translating it as.... tariff classification ---> How Item is marketed..

This is wrong though since I missed this question. It appears the correct translation is

How item is marketed----> tariff classification

I am utterly confused.. Please help.

Today I PT'ed a 172... something I thought I would never ever see. My diagnostic was a 157. I'm taking the August LSAT and this really gives me hope that I can actually do this and that Prep Test 63 wasn't an abnormally easy one... fingers crossed!! I am so happy
