When looking at the sections that I should focus on I see "Expected LSAT questions 0" for a certain topics. Does this mean I will absolutely not see this style of question in December or is this based off another statistic?

This can range from a certain topic in LR to variations of the IN/OUT games.

Thanks!

Still a long way to go until March but super happy with BR score. Was stuck in low 170s for a bit and now its creeping up :) Press on sagers!

Anyone want to share the timing sheets used for video footage? There is one with the live footage for PT 81 but I would love to get a fresh blank one for myself. Thanks in advance!

i did it already but now i heard about the new core curriculum for the august test and beyond. i want to take the test after august so i will be taking the test without logic games

I keep scoring around 147-155 for PT and around 165 for blind review. For some reason just can't overcome the timing, any tips?

Hi everyone, I know this has been mentioned before and I even commented on a post about this but is it normal to score better on one of the 2 LR sections every time on PTs? I consistently get around -5 for the first section and -8 on the second. Is the second section generally harder or is it perhaps fatigue?

Also am I right in assuming that the experimental section on the real test isn't guaranteed to be LR? At this point I am kind of hoping two LG section come up as they are actually kind of fun. Still making small stupid mistakes on them but hoping I get more accurate with more practice.

Hi,

I heard if you want to re-apply the same school you should re-write your essays, but what about LOR?

Can we use the same letters?

Thank you in advance,

Had a cancellation and a no show, that have me all dressed up (not really... I'm in board shorts) with no place to go.

I'll be in here: DONE

All are welcome.

Hey everyone. I am doing the core curriculum and have noticed a lot of my answers I get wrong are because I simply read the answer choice wrong / argument wrong because I was so nervous to get it right within the time limit, even when I do not show the time elapsed. I plan on taking the test the second time in 2024 because my mind absolutely blanked during the actual test. It was like everything I had learned went down the drain and was like I didn't spend months studying for the test. I would greatly appreciate it for some tips to help this from happening again, whether it be for drills, etc. Hope everyone has a great day!

Hi everyone! I am from Ontario and am applying to Canadian law schools. I got my score back from the October LSAT and it was a 154 (my first attempt). This is lower than my practice exams as I consistently score in the 160's. My question is, do you think I should cancel my score and try again in January? Also if I do the January exam will Canadian universities still consider me for admission? Thank you so much for you help, I really appreciate any advice:)

I've read a lot of horror stories about the last several LSATs taken remotely following the switch to Prometric. I'm trying not to worry. I know there could be sampling bias on discussion boards toward those who had bad experiences vs those who had zero issues.

Does anyone have advice to prepare? Additional items to have/remove, questions to ask, room requirements, etc.

I took the LSAT previously with ProctorU and didn't have issues, but it sounds like things have changed. I read the official guidelines on LSAC and Prometric, but I've also heard some contradictions (which could lead to interruptions).

Thanks so much in advance.

no longer needed.

Proctors: The proctors were OK. They provided clear instruction and followed all directions. I sat in front, which was distracting because they seemed to walk in front of my desk A LOT.

Facilities: There were bathrooms near the lecture halls. The door to the lecture hall opens to the outside, like many do in Hawaii.

What kind of room: Large lecture hall, but in the business school and not new. Stadium seating, each hard plastic seat with its own small fold out desk. The stadium seating was angled at a way that made the room very tall like a movie theater. The lighting was a little low which made it straining to read. The room DID have A/C. This was a concern of mine, but the temperature was not a problem for me.

How many in the room: Over 50-75. Pretty much a full room, but at least one desk between testers.

Desks: Bad. These were the little flip desks. Your test booklet had to be folded at all times, and the answer sheet had to overlap the test booklet just to keep everything organized and on the desk. They put at least one seat between testers.

Left-handed accommodation: The desks flipped from the right side. I'm right handed, so I don't remember if they accommodated left handed testers. I do remember one tester sitting in the front at his own desk. I found this unfair since he had a lot of desk space and the rest of us had so little.

Noise levels: There was not noise dampening in the old lecture hall. It was what I expected at the time, but now that I've tested elsewhere, I know that it was higher than it should be. I tested at a law school in Seattle and I literally heard no noise from anyone but myself.

Parking: I purchased a 4 hour parking pass in the visitor lot, and went over time. They gave me a fine even though the lot was empty. I was pissed about this, but wasn't sure where else to park.

Time elapsed from arrival to test: I don't remember exactly, but perhaps an hour between check and the start of the test.

Irregularities or mishaps: No mishaps, but really crappy desks and bad lighting.

Other comments: If they hold tests at the U of H law school, I recommend going to that location instead. If I were to test while in Hawaii, I'd make sure the test center is better or I'd fly for the weekend to the west coast.

Would you take the test here again? Absolutely NOT. Taking the test at the U of H business school is not an option if you are serious about the LSAT. Bad desks, bad lighting, bad parking choices. Hopefully they have changed the location since 2014.

Can anyone please direct me to the link for LR videos on 7Sage? It would be greatly appreciated. THANKS!

I have been prep testing with the newer LSATs (66-72) for the past few weeks. I have used up 66, 71, and 72 so far. I saved the newer ones for the tail end of my prep and was excited to tackle them since I started scoring from 160-163 on prior preptests, which is my target range. Unfortunately, I have scored a 156/157 on all the newer ones.

The difference in the score can be accounted for by my LR section performance alone. On each newer exam I have lost 18 points on both LR sections combined. Where on the older ones I lost anywhere from 8 to 12 points combined.

Any thoughts on how the newer LR sections are different and what is a good last minute approach to take toward improvement?

P.S. both my speed an accuracy seem to have suffered, however, it is more my accuracy.

Working my way through the CC, and right now on LG. Should I do the board setup and questions before watching the videos? It feels more active learning to me that way whereas just watching the videos would be passive, but I also don't want to take on bad habits. Any advice?

Hey peeps!

I have been working a full time for over 3 years now and from working at my job have decided that I would like to go to law school. My full time job is pretty demanding and i could work from 40-50 hours a week and, some days (maybe once every 2-3 weeks) 10-11 hours just in a work shift. I took the LSATS in November on an unrealistic limb thinking I was giving myself enough time to learn all of the materials and be ready in about 2 1/2 months. (HA jokes on me) I did terrible on the test and my score was very low. I have been thinking about looking for a new job that I can still support myself, have insurance and be able to study appropriately for the next test. I would not like to switch jobs for many reasons but know I definitely want to go to school and this isn't my forever job. Ideally i would like to take it in March 2019 but I think this time I learned I need to make sure I am 100% ready and not just forcing myself to take the test. I work with many attorneys in my position and some are young and most are old. A few of the younger attorneys have told me not to get discouraged by my low score because i have gained A LOT of experience in my job that pertains to law. I have testified and presented in so many different types of family and dependency law hearings, and work with law on a daily basis. I have worked with many criminals, have interview experience and all. My point and question is I am curious to know how much schools would weigh in on my experiences and (decent) GPA, etc vs. my low scores? I plan to redo the CC and give myself more time to really learn the material and drill but I feel lost on my path to applying and my chances, and don't want to settle for a school that takes low test scores just because i want to get into school. If you have ever worked a full time job, i would appreciate any tips for studying!?

Okay so I have gotten above a 170 twice now, (171 and 176), which is cool and fun when I see the score, but should I pay attention to them in analytics? My average score is a 162, and with the exception of those two scores I haven't broken 165 in any of the 20 tests I've taken.

Proctors:

I don't even know where to start. The proctors were completely inexperienced and as that wasn't enough of a nightmare they were extremely rude to test takers. To be point of humiliating students in front of everyone in the class, making them feel horrible for walking in with labels on their water bottles (just really overusing their authority). They seemed very confused about every step from the time students were entering the room until the time the test was about to begin.

Facilities:

The facilities are alright. The test building is easy to find.

What kind of room:

Just a typical community college class room. Very small setting compare to other I have attended.

How many in the room:

Most 20 students each room. There were several rooms at this testing center.

Desks:

You have to share the desk with another student. There is enough distance between sits, but can be quite distracting with you are a person that gets easily distracted.

Left-handed accommodation:

The desk works for both left and right handed people the same way.

Noise levels:

Very silent, especially since the room is so small.

Parking:

Parking is okay, there is enough spaces for everyone.

Time elapsed from arrival to test:

One hour, seems like it is not that long, but the proctors make it so stressful that it seem like YEARS!

Irregularities or mishaps:

This test center is a NIGHTMARE. Like previously mention the proctors make the experience so stressful that you begin the test already feeling horrible about the experience. Unfortunately, the way people act towards me at the test center really impacts my overall experience, so this really ruined it for me. The proctors really abuse of their power, by making a big deal out of every little detail and they were calling out different things in front of the whole classroom making test takers feel really uncomfortable. I felt so humiliated that I went home and didn't finish my exam there, I tried to complain to the LSAC, but nothing was done about it. So, my advice, do NOT sign up for this test center.

Other comments:

Would you take the test here again?

NEVER AGAIN! I would rather drive 20 minutes to go take the test in Northwestern University (I had a great experience there).

Date[s] of Exam[s]:

December 5th, 2015

LSAC just opened registration for the September, December, and February LSATs. The good seats are filling up fast. You want to register as soon as you can so that you won't to drive far to your test location. Also keep in mind that some test locations are more comfortable than others. Some locations have long tables available instead of small desks. So read some online reviews before choosing your test location. I hope this tip helps, and good luck to all of you.

I am registered to take the LSAT this September. I am looking for a serious study partner who is diligent, enjoys strategy, and is taking the intuitive approach to studying. I am open to using Skype chat, or any other online or over the phone method of communication. I am a Philosophy major, and would love to meet others from my major.

Best,

Anne

Hey guys! Those of you who are practicing the LSAT, what type of small-term rewards are you guys using to reward yourselves when you guys reach a new practice test benchmark/jump?

For example, do you guys eat ice cream, or take a break from the LSAT for a day? Or what? I'm just curious what short-term goals/rewards you guys set for yourselves.

Thank you!
