I purchased HB wooden pencils for the test Saturday but I am confused if they can only be used for Canadian testers? Also, my address is incorrect on my drivers license, do we think that's going to be a problem? Nothing I have read makes it seem like it would be.
So I posted a thread previously about whether to include a 5th section on pt 72 today..
and the statement came up that I shouldn't pt today at all and just relax today and tomorrow.
Does anyone have any experience here or can share their take or insight?
Is there any points (good chance of ) that can come off doing a pt and reviewing today and relaxing tomorrow
Or would relaxing today and tomorrow be more optimal?
Hi, i'm taking the pt 72 today to gauge where I am and maybe fine tune anything I may have screwed up. Of course, I'll be taking the day off tomorrow due to the lsat on sat.
Should I include a 5th section in this test? Where would you say I should place it to simulate the fatigue the best?

I remember learning somewhere that it is known which questions in each section are most difficult and easiest. Does anyone know which are which for each section?
In the section "Resources for Taking Simulated LSATs" - there is advice on "How to Keep Time"
My question is this: why can't I simply reset the minute hand back to 12 on my analog watch at the beginning of each test section ?
There is no mention of the prohibition of resetting your analog watch here : http://www.lsac.org/jd/lsat/day-of-test
It only stipulates...
"Time. Supervisors will keep the official time. You may take an analog (nondigital) wristwatch to the test center. No other timers—including electronic and countdown timers—are allowed."
Rather than wearing three cheap-o Casio watches the day of the exam - is it permissible by the Test Gods to reset my watch after each section ? Or will I find myself tossed out of the testing center like an obnoxious drunk gets thown out of a bar ???
Hi,
I am interested to find out if there is a way I can search for questions inside the 7sage database by difficulty level. When you look at the video explanations, you notice the round bubbles that indicate difficulty. Is there a way to filter the questions based on that?
Thank you for your response.
I keep second guessing on my right answers, and any answer I erase is usually correct, 8/10 times. It's making me score in the lower 160's and it's bothering me. Any suggestions?
Also, does anyone have any tricks or tips they have for reading comprehension questions, that seem like trick questions, and logical reasoning questions? I'm improving on understanding why I am getting like 6 wrong on the logical reasoning but for some reason I can't help it. I definitely need advice!!
Only 3 days left!!! AHHHHHHH!!!!
When you're reviewing a test do you see questions where you picked one answer instead of the other and had it down to the last two answers? I hate that! I swear I always pick the wrong one and it usually happens 2-3 times per section if not more. Any advice? Am I not paying enough attention to little specific details?

The "Sections" tab no longer shows graphs, percentages, or section difficulties. It shows up as "no data". Anyone else having the same problem?
Hi fellow anxious soon to be test takers! Wondering if anyone has any ideas or tips for what they will do the night before and morning of the test. For many, it has probably been a while since they've taken a standardized test.
For instance:
What will you eat the night before?
Morning of?
Good Snacks to take with you?
What will you wear?
How early do you plan to arrive?
Ideas for if you are having trouble sleeping the night before?
Secret incantations to perform to get a 175+ ?
Tricks to avoid the jitters day of?
First thing you plan to do after the LSAT?
Again, good luck!
I apologise if this is asked often. I decided I wanted to do law school and bought a giant Princeton Review LSAT book. I wanted to know where I was at, so I took two practice tests from the back of the book. I scored 162 & 164 but couldn't even start the last logic game on either so I missed 1/4 of that section both times. Timing is killing me on logic games. My question is can I realistically expect to crack 170 or am I going to struggle because I'm not processing logic fast enough? I mean it's not knowledge at all, so can I learn to think better?
HI All. I'm interested in how others are using prep tests as they make their way through the (awesome) 7Sage curriculum. Are you taking tests sporadically? Once a week? Saving tests until the end? What have you noticed has been most helpful?
I'm curious if you guys think it would be a good idea to re take PT 70 or 71 before the September lsat? I've already taken them before when I was studying for June but I want to know if it would be beneficial to go through some of the most recent material even though I've already taken that PT a few months back. Is it worth it as a finial times PT or some drilling before Saturday or should I just avoid them since I've already previously taken those tests?
Thanks!
... You're stressed. I know it, you know it, we ALL know it. But that's okay, because you're going to do great!!
Take a few minutes to breathe, relax, have a cup of coffee.. (Or a soda/water, if you don't drink that stuff.)
Sit back, relax! ..and enjoy some cute/funny cats.
Sufficient Assumption questions are the only type of logical reasoning questions that still give me trouble after constant studying. I can't seem to comprehend the concept enough to depict the correct answer. Please give me helpful tips or a way to better understand them. The LSAT is this upcoming weekend and I'm a little upset that I've still not grasped the full concept.
Guys! How can I best drill to increase my sections in these last days? I unfortunately signed up already and am thinking of taking the LSAT for the experience even if I cancel my score. Any tips?
Also do you guys think it's a good idea or does a cancelled score just look real bad?
Help!
I'm not sure if this has been mentioned in an earlier thread, so I apologize if I am repeating it.
Jon, would it be possible for you to use a better mic when recording future explanation videos? Maybe my speakers are just bad, because there's some feedback that makes it difficult and unpleasant to hear what you're saying. I raise the volume in an attempt to hear it better, but the feedback just gets louder and more unpleasant to listen to. Otherwise, your explanations are great. Thanks!
If you happen to be in the CLE area and would be willing to partner with me to study and help up both our scores (I currently score around 155, plus or minus 5 points), I would be absolutely thrilled. There are about 11 weeks left and I really want to buckle down.
Hey J.Y.
Is there any prep information regarding the essay portion of the exam?
If you're feeling nervous or stressed (or both) before the exam this Saturday, just sit back and listen to Beethoven's Fur Elise. It does wonders.
hello,guys! how many times have you practised before the test?
Hey guys... here is an alternative source of LR explanations for free courtesy Manhattan http://www.manhattanlsat.com/forums/logical-reasoning-f4.html
Quick question. I've only taken the initial pretest. I've been through the syllabus once but that was some time ago due to various reasons. I plan on signing up for December. Should I go ahead and begin on PT? At this point they won't be timed but I think I need to start figuring out my weaknesses. I was thinking about taking the PT and referring to the lessons when necessary. Does that make much sense, or should I continue to make my way through the entire syllabus again before taking PT?
Hey there,
Is it possible to view the videos offline? Watching the videos on the subway would be a great use of my travel time.
Thanks!
