I’ve heard that the LSAT has gotten harder over the years to keep up with all the increased LSAT prep resources that are now available. My test scores seem to reflect that. I scored a 177 on PT 44 after only a week of studying logic games and another 177 on PT 52 after a month of going to an LSAT prep class. But on the recent PTs, 70 and up, my scores ranged from 170-174. I took the September LSAT (Saturday Observant) and scored a 173. Granted I haven’t put the time and effort into studying that I should have but I expected that I would be able to get close to my original score on PTs 44 and 52 especially after months of studying(albeit light). Any thoughts?
So....just went online to submit the final copy of my personal statement and it looks like the site has crashed. I've tried it from multiple different computers, asked my friends to try from home but they're also getting the same internal error message. Called admissions, no answer. Anyone else experiencing this?
I'm registered for August and October and realized my home environment is too unstable (and noisy). I know LSAC will pay for a hotel room. Just wondering how it works? I understand there is a $115 limit? Do you pay for it and get reimbursed?
Hey guys, I assume October will still be flex and I generally do my PT's on a tablet but am now trying to do them on a computer to practice for flex. the only issue I have is that I can't highlight using the lsat prep plus website on the computer. how should I prepare?
I am in the Middle East, and I am trying to figure out if there will be a test dates between April and October.
I am having this issue because I think I wont be ready by April, and I want to keep the October test date open for a retake if I need it.
Thank you in advance :)
I'm curious if folks have thoughts on how many overconfidence errors is too many on a PT? Is 0 a realistic goal? Should I be ok with having a small amount on any given test? At what point should I be worried about making too many overconfidence errors?
Does anyone know if LSAT flex will have a curve when scoring?
how do you flag questions in law hub and how many timed should do you recmmend before test day. I've scheduled 8. is that enough? I have the fundamentals in the bag, my average (untimed) is -0 RC, -2, -0 LG. Can I start taking full-pts. My main issues are seconding guessing myself and taking too long on a question and building stamina. I be sleepy!!!!
Please don't forget my answer on flagging questions

hey guys! Is there any advice week of how to study? Should I still be doing sections everyday? Or just reviewing past PTs? I just dont want to burn out! I take the test sunday, so any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thank you :)
Hi! I’m looking for study partners available to meet up online. I’m hoping to score as high as I can and would love for someone who is motivated to do the same. Please lmk if interested.
Hi everyone,
I took my first LSAT a few years ago and was hoping I could get some feedback on my writing sample. Don't hold back.

I am currently going through the core curriculum but I was wondering should I be taking PT's while going through the curriculum or wait until I finish it?
I am doing some of the recent PTs and find myself struggle with the relationship among ideal experiment, control groups and causation. (eg: May2020 LR Q11, Q14). I know that ideal experiment could produce a casual outcome, but I still tend to make mistakes on questions testing the ideas of having control groups or of similar concepts. Are there any recommended material that I could read to better understand those concepts on the LSAT?
Many thanks!

What is the difference really? Is pre-phrasing universally helpful across LR/RC question types or only selectively applicable? I.e, what makes it/when can it be most valuable? Thoughts, counterexamples, and battle-tested opinions welcome!
Has anyone taking Blueprint's Live Online Course? How does it compare to 7Sage? Is it worth it?
Hi!
So I have a question that I could use some advice on. I have been prepping for the January LSAT for a couple months now, and a few weeks ago I was scoring fairly high/where I wanted to. Recently, using more recent practice tests, I have been scoring a little lower and seemingly plateauing around 169. I am not upset with this score of course, but just wonder if I could improve more for a later date. My main question is whether it is a better idea to just take it in January, see what I get, and potentially keep prepping for April or to put January off and just take April instead (February not an option). How does it look to send in multiple LSAT scores to law schools?
Thank you in advance!
Hi guys, I am currently a 0L and will be starting law school in fall of 2021. I have been looking into the 7sage law school explained courses and was wondering if anyone can weigh in on the pros and cons of it? Additionally, do you find the courses helpful and what part of the course has been most helpful to you? I know it's a relatively new addition to 7sage so I wanted to get some feedback from actual students before signing up for the whole course so any thoughts would be appreciated. I just want to get my feet wet before diving into law school so I at least have a sense of what I'm getting myself into before 1L starts lolol
For the flex, do we have to take the test with a desk against a wall or is a kitchen table/table in an open room okay? I tried calling LSAC but the phone lines ran busy so I was wondering if anyone had any info. Thank you!
Is it possible to take the LSAT writing after you've taken your test, or do I have to take the lsat writing in order to take the test? I know I have to take it in order to see my score, but was wondering if there was an open window when I could take it. Thanks!
Title, I feel like I can read questions better in that font and size. My eyes are great and the bigger font size makes passages seem more intimidating.
Hi everyone,
I live in the Chicago area, and I'm studying heavily for the December 2017 LSAT. I'm looking for someone who is scoring in the low 160's right now so that we can both learn together. I'd prefer someone who actually lives in the Chicago area so that we could ostensibly meet up once in a while, but I'm also fine with skype/google hangout/facebook/whatever.
As another poster put it, I'm "gunning for a 180," and I'd really love to collaborate with someone who is similarly motivated.
I already registered for October. But since this won’t count to the yearly limit and we can cancel our score, should I just try it? It can help me with experiencing the Flex first hand and i might even get a decent score. What do you guys think?
