I noticed that when I add up the elapsed time for each individual question of LR sections after taking a them on 7 sage (times are available under the results page) they do not add up to the time allotted for the section (34:40/26 questions). Instead, it comes to 29 minutes or so. Is the timing section under the results page reliable?

Anyone else following this thread on Reddit? Apparently LSAC called a few people today (the day before scores are released...) who took the July Flex to tell them that their score “got lost”. I’m registered for August and am considering a move to October since there’s a coupon. What’re your thoughts?

Hi, I'm trying to re-take a PT I did several months ago on the 7sage app. Is there a way to re-take the PT without deleting my data from my initial take? (Similar to how you can make a clean version of the same problem set)

Any input/feedback on my approach of how to close the gap between my last four timed PTs (172, 172, 168, 168) and their associated BR scores (176, 176, 177, 177) would be much appreciated.

Timing (and also confidence in my timing) has seemed to be a big issue in RC. To mitigate this I have been doing full fresh RC sections and redoing full-RC sections (1 of each/day). I’ve been doing this for ~week now and am now much more comfortable with an full RC section. I plan to continue to just do this. And also thoroughly analyze the mistakes I make in both my repeat and fresh sections. My BR for a fresh RC section is typically -3 to -1 but seems to be a downward trend which is good so I think I’m making gains in accuracy as well.

Timing in LR is sometimes okay and sometimes not. It just seems that when I’m in a good section I can have up to 8 minutes left after giving each question an attempt. Other sections I only have 5. I don’t think I have a particular weak point in terms of a question type so my strategy here is to just get into a rhythm with taking PTs and really BR and analyze any question that gives me trouble. I don’t know if doing LR sections would be super beneficial to practice timing since it seems that my speed just tends to correlate with how good I feel in the questions. I typically make 1-2 mistake I feel like I could have avoided and fall for 2-3 curve breakers.

LG has been pretty consistent with usually -1 or -2. I never get a question wrong when I blind review the games (which I just do timed a second time) so I’m hypothesizing my issue to be with the initial setup. Also, I find that I can just make stupid mistakes (like not manipulating symbols correctly in my head). My goal here is to just continue to full-proof LGs and do full LG sets such that my speed in making inferences allows me to “buy” extra time in working out the questions so that I don’t feel as under pressure or can even write more things out. Also, after every game I think I am going to take a second and reflect on what aspects of the game mandated that specific setup; hopefully that will give me a greater comfortability in setting up a new game.

I’ve taken about 10PTs and have been studying for 6 months. Any feedback or comments from the other side if you were in a similar spot and how long it took you to reach your goal would be greatly appreciated!

I started with a 152 diagnostic, and after four months, my score has fluxed between 157-162, mostly at 158-160. I need a 165 on the August LSAT, and I just feel like even though I have been working my butt off, it hasn't paid off. I feel so defeated. My biggest problem right now is Reading Comp, (-11 whereas LR is near -4 and LG hover around -5 or -6) even though it use to be my best section.

Does anyone have any tips on helping improve reading comp? I would be so happy if I could get it down to -5 or even -4

Hey guys, I was just wondering

  • Do you think October will be flex?
  • Was there anything that surprised you about flex? Was the format the same as law hub? Did anyone have any issues?
  • Any info you can provide about flex would be much appreciated just so people can know as much as possible before test day, thank you!

    Sorry if this has been asked before, I'm wondering if there is a way to view the question types analytics so I can see my accuracy changes over time depending on the PT. I'm trying to see if there is improvement on certain question types. Currently on my analytics it shows RRE as highest priority but that is over 10 questions and none of the 4 most recent I have gotten wrong. So I don't think that is actually an issue anymore. However, I want to make sure there are no question types that I have failed to improve on or if there are I want to be able to easily locate those types. Thanks in advance!

    I'm having a bit of trouble inputting my new answers (after preptest BR) into the answer sheet- without deleting the original answers. I know there's an option to see how you do before and after BR, I just can't seem to figure out how to do it.

    Anyone know how I can do this?

    How likely do folks think it is that the October LSAT will end up being a Flex exam? I'm in Florida where the COVID situation is really bad and I don't anticipate it getting better any time soon. I'm worried that LSAC will require it be in person and if that's the case I don't think I feel comfortable given the high level of cases in FL.

    If you are finished with undergrad, and you are applying Fall 2021, and you want to apply early, do NOT procrastinate submitting your transcripts to the CAS. I have been waiting for three weeks on my academic report and UGPA calculation. I am sure it will all get sorted out, but I would hate for anyone to be starting this process mid-September and waiting for this to come through.

    For anyone taking the August exam, what are you guys doing one month before to prep?? I am scoring just little lower then I want on PT but I'm not trying to get caught up in the numbers and just focusing on drilling my weaknesses (RC, some LR).. I just want to see if anyone has any tips or can share what there doing one month before test.

    Thank you and best of luck to August test takers!!

    Hi Everyone,

    I was wondering if someone knowledgeable on topic could provide their thoughts... how significantly do the preptests in the 60s differ from the most recent preptests (85+)?

    I am registered for the August LSAT flex and in the last few weeks, I have gone through preptests 60-66 (timed), consistently scoring at or around my score goal....

    Basically, I am wondering if you think the scores I have been getting on the 60s would roughly translate to the newer tests.

    Thanks,

    P

    Any ideas on how to take the test in a way that simulates the flex format? It seems like 7Sage doesn't allow you to only take the 3 sections, nor does LawHub. I'm taking it in August and really want to practice with the closest version of the test I can find.

    Hey y'all to those who have taken the LSAT flex previously! I am taking the August LSAT, and was wondering about the time slots that you are able to choose from for the Flex. What is the earliest start time and how many slots a day are there? T

    hanks in advance!

    Hello All!

    I am currently studying for the August LSAT date and I am generally scoring in the high 160s with a goal of breaking into the 170s consistently before the exam. Although I am working with a private tutor, I am also looking for someone to BR with, as I have found that having to explain and defend your answer choice to another person on BR is the most valuable form of review. I am looking to BR individual section work (my normal drills are back to back five star RC passages and 15 4-5 star LR question sets) with someone else as well as individual PT's, provided that we are generally taking the same ones (I am currently on test 70, and take two PT's a week). If anyone is interested, just shoot me a PM, and good luck to everyone out there!!!
