The internal mic on my computer doesn't work. Does anyone know whether or not it'll be okay for me to use the mic on my earbuds to talk with the proctor, or do I need another kind of external mic that doesn't involve having earbuds in? Thanks!

Pen on LSAT-Flex?

Does anyone know if we are allowed to use a pen on the July-Flex exam?

I know for in person digital exams they began allowing pens but on the Law Hub website it says only pencils... is this outdated or updated?

LG Timing Strategies

I just finished the core curriculum a few weeks ago after completing all the problem sets, but it almost always takes me double or sometimes triple the recommended time to complete individual logic games. However, I usually score -1 at most. Is this normal? Or should I be working much faster by now?

Hey , so I finished the 7Sage course and took my first practice test on Sunday and scored 139 in real time and 152 in Blind Review. I’m writing the August LSAT and want to get in the mid to high 150’s but I’m not sure exactly what I need to do to effectively improve my score. Please help! Open to any advice.

LSAT Flex Question

Hi everyone,

I'm currently looking to do the October or November test. I've taken some months off but am looking to get back into studying. Since the pandemic is unlikely to go away, these tests in fall will probably be the take at home test I've heard about. Can anyone bring me up to speed on the LSAT-Flex? 3 sections only, correct? Do I just take practice tests as normal?

PT Test Flex or Full ????

Are you taking the full practice test or just the 3 flex sections and using the converter tool?

Some people have indicated that their score went down when the did the flex version. Has anyone experienced this?

Greetings everyone,

For those who have taken the LSAT or plan to take the LSAT in August, I'm around 65% into the curriculum starting In/Out and grouping games then reading comp. then PT's... Should I start a few PT's now even though I am a couple weeks away from finishing LG and reading comp?

Also if anyone wants to drop tips from the Flex test that would be super helpful, I've heard some common issues in different threads.

Just curious how others are approaching this final week or so. Are you taking more PT's? Just doing sections? Or are you taking your foot off the gas a little bit to ensure you are fresh for the real thing?

I'm curious because I was drilling PT's pretty intensely and I could feel myself getting burnt out. I've started doing a section or two a day and that is a little better, but I wonder if even that is too much. I just really don't want to be mentally exhausted for the test.

Thanks for your input and help!

Bread and butter of studying

Hey guys,

I've got a question for anybody who has made some significant increases in their scores. Previously, i thought taking pts and doing extensive BR would lead to consistent score increases alone. Now that i'm 4 pts in, and have only stayed in the 157-159 territory, i'm wondering if there's more virtue in spending days drilling instead?

Looking for perspectives because i was originally planning on taking august, but might be considering October instead. really hoping to be in the high 160s/low 170s.

What do you guys think helped you the most in your prep when you were around these scores? problem sets and drills or full practices tests with extensive BR? Thank you in advance!

Test date question

Hi everyone, I have a question that I would really like some input on from fellow members on here. I started studying for the lsat in the beginning of December with PowerScore books and did that for about two and half months with a few practice sections scattered in that time as well. I realized towards the end of February that I was not getting anywhere so I signed up for 7 sage and took the diagnostic which I scored a 142 on. I went through the cc pretty meticulously, read the loophole, and foolproofed games 1-35. I took my first post cc pt on the 1st of July and scored a 152, and then tonight I hit 160 with a Br score of 167. I went -12 total in LR, -6 in RC, and -8 in LG. My goal score is a 165. The deadline to sign up for August is the 15th so I kind of need to decide if I should attempt that test date soon. My other option is October. I guess I am wondering if you guys think I’m better off just registering for October giving myself lots of time, or trying to push even harder than I have been the next month and a half to be able to get a score and applications in sooner, of course if I get my desired score. I also would welcome any advice on what to do for LG, I foolproofed 1-35 but still can’t seem to get to -3 range. Thanks in advance for the responses!

Hi, I am scoring in the low 160s looking to get a 175+. I am currently working full time but am willing to take as long as it takes to get the score I want. However, I would like to get there, if possible, for this admission cycle. I am missing an average of -5 per section with some sections getting -3 sometimes but not consistently low in any one section. But have only taken like 3-4 prep-tests.

Any Advice? Looking for someone who can help me understand how to make the jump. Any study plan advice?

Thanks

Scores above the ACs?

Hi everyone, it’s my first month of learning on 7Sage, so haven’t fully grasped all the numbers!

Just noticed there are scores above the ACs on LR questions. For example, the curve of the Q was from 125-140, but the numbers above the ACs ranged from 155 to 165. Does that mean that, for example, someone who picks AC B on average scores 162? Then, what’s the point of The Curve?

Thanks!

Hello guys, my first timed PT was a 161, I've taken probably 20 PT's since then and the most i've managed to improve is 162. I have read Mike Kim's LSAT trainer, studied my analytics and taken the 7sage Syllabus that correspond with my weakest answers, I've read PowerScore books, and more. I literally have learned so much since my first PT, I literally didn't know anything about relationships or diagramming, and now I can successfully diagram, finish with time to spare, yet I'm consistently doing worse in all categories. I am so disappointed and frustrated. What am I doing wrong???

Post Core Curriculum

I recently completed the core curriculum and decided to take PT 36 completely untimed. I scored a 172, and although I know this is not indicative how I will perform under actual testing conditions, does anyone have tips on how to improve timing? I am aiming to hit the 170+ range timed by the end of August (not sure if this is reasonable).

Hi everyone,

Slightly different post here.

I have the opportunity to sit down and talk with a superior court judge and I'm just looking to draw up some questions for him.

I thought I'd reach out to the community here to get some different perspectives.

If anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them!

I am an international student (from India) studying at USC. There are new ICE guidelines regarding F-1 visa holders, which may bar me from entering the country in the next month. Since, I need to register for the August LSAT in the next week, does anyone know if I can register for the US region but then take the LSAT flex from India (if I am unable to enter the country for the fall semester)? This is assuming they decide to conduct the August LSAT remotely as well.
