Hey guys,

I've been stuck around the low 160s for a while now, but got a 167 and 169 on PT 55 and 56. Though I am really happy, I was wondering how much of this could have been due to the level of difficulty of these particular tests. Anyone know of any rankings of the tests or experience something similar?

Thanks!

According to your score calculation platform, I've gotten a 159 and a 162 on two of my recent practice tests.

On the first one, I got 76/100 questions right. On the second one, I got 81/101 right.

According to your chart on this link (http://classic.7sage.com/lsat-score-percentile-conversion/), those ratios are good for a 161 and 164, respectively.

Please tell me what to believe, because I can't take the confusion D:

So as we all know, the LSAT can only be taken 3 times in 2 years.

I was wondering..

If, hypothetically speaking, I were to take the exam and cancel my score in time, would that still be considered as an attempt? Meaning, would I still have 3 chances for 2 years?

Also, would law schools be able to see that I canceled my score?

Thank you in advance for your inputs!

Hi all,

I just wanted to let you know that StrategyPrep in DC offers free in-person live proctored LSATs on select Saturdays in Washington, DC. It is limited to 1 free test per person, but seems like a good idea for your last or 2nd to last PT before the real LSAT. You get to choose any test from PT39 to the present, and it's a 5-section test.

However, in my humble opinion, they have NOTHING on 7Sage in terms of LSAT prep! Seriously, who does?

A live proctored test could be a good freebie though. I'll report back if I try it.

Hi guys,

So I know that for example A ---> B (--|--) C leads to the inference A (--|--) C, whereas A (--|--) B ---- > C leads to no useful inference. What about the double arrow? i.e.

1) A (---) B ---> C

2) A ---> B (---) C

my gut tells me in both cases its just A --- > C but I'm not 100%. Can anyone shed some light on this?

Cheers

I seem to be having a glitch with my proctor app on iphone. About 10 minutes through my 15 minute break, the app shuts off and when I turn it back on it's at the beginning again. Anyone else experience the same thing?

I cannot mark any answers on PT reviews with a star anymore. On my iPad and PC/Chrome, when I click a Star during a PT review, it turns yellow for one second and then goes back to being clear. As its happening on multiple devices that used to be able to star answers, it leads me to believe that it has something to do with the site. Thanks.

I am still trying to get the timing right. Recognize that there will be questions that I will have to skip and come back to if I have time at the end. Would really benefit hearing from those of you who finish all the questions within the 35 min and still maintain good accuracy on how you pace yourself and what are the benchmarks you stick to when doing timed PTs. By all means they are meant to be flexible.

From what I have read:

LR- First 10 in 10 min or less (and if possible first 15 in 15 min)

LG- Easy games under 5 min (someone wrote doing the first two games within 15 min)

RC- Easy passages under 7 and hard passages under 9 (aim to finish the first two passages within 15 min)

I graduated a couple years ago and am having trouble with letters of rec. I briefly held a part time job and then opened a tourism company with a business partner directly after. I also did not have strong relationships with professors while in college due to the sheer volume of students in each class. Any suggestions on where I should be looking for recs? Thanks!

I am just wondering if LSAC would let you update an application with a new lsat score that wasn't attached to the submitted application .

An example of this would be : School X is due March 15th, You take the LSAT in Oct, send that score by November with the application. However, out of the blue you decided to retake it in December and get a higher score. Would LSAC let you update the schools report / application on you?

So I've been averaging about 155 on timed PTs and decided to go really hard on the studying this past week. I took PT 57 un-timed today an got a 167 (far above my target score).

I realized that the reason I would score a 155 is because I would fall for a lot of the trap answers under timed circumstances. My question to you 7Sagers is what can I do to get as close as possible to that 167 (untimed) in a timed situation by the December test?

Average

LG: -0 to -4

LR: -9 to -13

RC: -7 to -12

PT 57 (untimed)

LG: -0

LR1: -5

LR2: -3

RC: -7
