Hi! Does anyone know if we’re able to pick a specific date for the LSAT flex? I’m signed up for the October one and the email made it seem like we can pick a start time, but no mention of a date. I’m asking because I’m traveling on the 5th and have to take it either on the 3rd or the 4th. Please help!

Hi everyone! I am taking my test on the 29th, and unfortunately did not plan out my CC well enough to spend much time PTing. I have taken PT 37 (June 2002) and scored a 142, PT 38 (Oct 2002) and scored a 146, and PT 39 (Dec 2002) and scored a 157. I plan to take at least 2 or 3 more tests before the 29th to ensure having enough time to BR and relax before test day. Is there any specific PT order that I should follow for my upcoming PTs? Should I take newer PTs, rather than going in order? Are the older PTs that I have already taken "easier", and that is why I am increasing my score so much, or can I expect these scores to be a good baseline for my August test? Any thoughts, suggestions, tips, etc. are welcome! Thanks in advance :)

I took what I thought would be my last PT before the august exam today, but bombed it. I usually go -2/-3 MAX on LG and kinda rely on my LG section to get score I want because it makes up for bad RC score, but I went -8 on such stupid mistakes today and whole score dropped like -6 of what I usually average. Definitely a confidence killer and I am not sure what to do. Should I take another PT Tuesday to boost confidence (hopefully) or do I just drill the rest of the week and go into test day with this being my last PT?

I am registered for the August 29 LSAT-Flex as a first-time test taker. I just got an email from LSAC saying I need to complete my LSAT Writing as soon as possible online, and my score won't be released unless I complete the writing on time. I looked through the LSAC site and am still a bit confused. What is the deadline for online LSAC Writing? Do I have to complete it before my multiple choice test? And are there sample LSAT questions, guidelines, sample essays, etc. at 7sage? I just have no idea what LSAT Writing is and what I am supposed to do... #help

Probably something odd to be concerned about...but can we go to the bathroom during LSAT flex? I have a GI condition and I need to go when I need to go. So since we don’t get any breaks, Does anyone know how that is going to work?

Hi everyone,

I'm taking the August Flex and don't exactly have a private/quiet place to study in my house due to COVID. (I'd have to ask my roommates to leave for a few hours and we're on a busy street with frequent sirens and dirt bikes.) Has anyone taken the Flex exam from a hotel or Airbnb? If so, was it worth it? It seems like a great option for privacy, but I'm a bit worried about WiFi services being out of my control in case I encounter any technological issues during the test. I'd love any insight/affirmation anyone may offer!

Thanks in advance,

S

Hello!!! I just wanted to say thank you to everyone on 7sage! I got a 168 on my LSAT back in May and I just got accepted into Sandra Day O'Conner School of Law in their Honors program! Thank you so much everyone for your help, keep the grind going. Eventually you'll reach your goal with enough time!

I'm registered to take the October Flex and will probably also sign up for the November test as well. I really want to get in to Boston College, whose 75th percentile for GPA is 3.73 and 25th percentile LSAT is 161. My undergraduate GPA is 3.82 but I am worried about my LSAT score. I have gone through most of the Powerscore Bibles and have only taken 4 PTs but they have all scored in the 150s. Do I have enough time to get my score up to the 160s by October/November? I'm thinking I should review the PS bibles and take a lot more PTs and maybe I could improve? Or should I wait until next year to make sure I get a good score so I have a better chance of getting in? I really don't want to wait 2 years to start law school, but BC is the only school in Massachusetts with the JD/MSW program I want to do so I really need to get in. In the PTs I did do I lost the most points on Reading Comp and Logical Reasoning. Any advice would be very appreciated

Access PT Notes

I've created lots of notes using the note column on every question during BR. But I cannot seem to copy and paste those notes to a word document, or share it with anyone. Was wondering how I could save them to my computer.

When I took the LSAT writing section, I was happy with my response of about 275 words. However, I have since seen several posts on the internet stating the writing section would be 600-800 words, while only one post said it was okay to have 380 words. Is my 270 word count okay, or should I redo the writing section when I retake the test later this month? Thanks.

Hey everyone, has there been any word as to whether the November 14th LSAT will be "Flex" or the traditional format of in-person proctoring? The registration deadline for the October 3rd LSAT-Flex is tomorrow so I was trying to weigh out my options and decide whether to sign-up or not.

Thanks in advance to those that respond.

    LG Anxiety

    Looking for suggestions on how to tackle anxiety associated with LG game board set-up and translating the rules? In most cases, I draw/write set-up, second guess myself, erase, freeze, freeze some more, scramble to reconstruct game board and rules, run out of time. I think I created a HUGE mental block for myself as it relates to the LG section. Anyone else experience this? Suggestions on how to overcome LG mental block/anxiety?

    I just completed the core curriculum a few days ago and took a PT and got a 171. I'd like to get mid 170s in a perfect world, and I'm signed up for the August and October LSAT to apply this cycle. In September I will have a lot of time to take as many PTs as possible. Should I take the LSAT twice, hope for the best on the August test and then study intensely in September, or should I wait to take the test in October? Is there any downside to taking the LSAT twice in back to back sessions? Not sure whether admissions officers look down on that practice.

    Hi guys, quick question about the November LSAT date:

    I'm registered for the October test but am a first time test-taker and honestly am not fully confident I'll score my goal score on my first try. So, I was checking the November test registration deadline and its September 30th, which is before the October test and way before the October score release. So, the big q is should I register for November before I even take the October test just in case? I don't want to waste precious application money on this but it seems like a good backup in case the October test doesn't go my way. Would I be better off registering and then cancelling the November test if I do score high enough?

    For context, I've taken a handful of pts and I average around 163 untimed and around 155 timed. Timing is my biggest issue and I just bought 7sage's monthly course thing so I'm hopeful I'll improve by a few points before October but I'm just confused and worried lol

    Also, sidenote: last year I think LSAC moved the registration deadline for the November test so folks could register after getting their October score. Not sure whether that'll be a thing this year.

    Any advice would help! Thank you!!

    I have decided to push my August LSAT date to October but can not figure out how to do it! The deadline is August 21st, so I emailed the LSAC 3 days ago but they haven't yet gotten back to me and as I live in Canada, I'm avoiding calling as long as possible so I don't have to pay international rates. When I go onto my LSAC account it says I am registered for the August one but it says I am not eligible to withdraw. Also under the general forms section where there is a test date change form, its from 2018 so that's not much help! I also don't have an email from the LSAC that had the option to obtain a coupon instead of writing the flex.

    If anyone has any advice on how to change my date that would be much appreciated!
