Hey All! I'm looking for a study partner to review concepts and go over PTs. I live in Long Island but would be willing to come into the city to meet up or we could talk via Skype. I'm scoring in the high 150's and am shooting for 165+. Taking the LSAT in June. Email me if interested vjgogia@gmail.com

Best,

Vijay

I took the October 2022 LSAT and did my writing sample for it. I wanted to redo my writing for my January test but I got caught up in turning applications in by February 1st that I forgot to redo it. January scores are released tomorrow and applications are due, I wanted to know if I retook the writing tomorrow before submitting my apps if it would count?

I have 3.5 months to get score from (just over 12 weeks) to go from 150 to 157 - 160 range.

My incorrect answers are somewhat even on each section, but struggling most (conceptually speaking) on logic games, especially with the speed. I can set up most games but have a hard time attacking the questions.

Should I drill the LR question types I have most difficulty with?

Drill reading to improve efficiency / speed?

Is it better to drill drill drill, then take practice test and review and go from there?

Any specific advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you.

More snow here on the East Coast, all schools are shut down in NY & NJ... another storm. Another push back. If you're like me pending to hear from some schools in these areas, don't be surprised if we get a delayed response yet again :(

I haven't taken an official test yet or a proctored exam. I'm hoping someone can answer a few questions about what I can and cannot use on the exam.

1 - Can I have my laptop connected to an external monitor?

2 - Can I use a external mouse & keyboard?

Confirming:

  • 5 sheets of blank paper front/back

  • 24oz water?

  • bag of snacks?

    • Are there any other significant constraints that I need to be aware of?

    I started my journey about a year ago, with about a 140 diagnostic. Went to 148, then 150, now 155 on the last April test. My average for the last 10 practice tests I had taken was from 158 - 163. After the 150 test, I made some serious shifts in my mindset, study habits, overall approach to review and drill etc. I was starting to feel so good, intuitive, confident. I seriously thought I was ready.

    I need a 160 on the August test - 5 more points - it truly will be my last try for personal reasons I don't want to get into on here.This is 3 months worth. Is this doable?

    If so, how? Drill each section for now, review? Or practice tests and then analytics from there and review? 76 75 84 85 91 69 is the ones I have left that I haven't taken or were taken long ago. Is it okay to retake tests already taken and see the comparative improvement? In terms of material, how do I use it to my advantage?

    I feel so lost, confused, and this shook my confidence down by a lot. Figuring out technology for 30 min and starting late, starting at a much later time than most of my past tests, and during the third section feeling my brain already fall asleep - these are the factors that come to mind, if that is of any value. I don't mean to sound self - defeatist and I'm aware that my situation isn't necessarily unique, but I truly do feel disappointed and so low after seeing this. I really think I can do better, I'm just feeling down and confused and lost as to how I can specifically execute that.

    Any specific study guidance (moving forward in my particular situation), words of wisdom, and genuine advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance for whoever chooses to respond.

    Also, here are my analytics from my last 10 practice tests on here:

    LR: -5.7 average

    LG: -7 average

    RC: - 7 average.

    I don't understand how I got a 155 on test day and missed that many more points, like I'm truly so confused.

    My webcam showed up as mirrored when I test my equipment through proctorU, so when I hold up my ID it’s mirrored. Will this be an issue on test day/ can I fix this? Does anyone have experience with this?

    Thanks!

    Hi!

    Has anyone tested at the Fordham test center in Manhattan? If so, what was your experience like there?

    I live off the ABCD in Harlem, so it would be amazingly convenient to hop on the train and take it a few stops down to Columbus Circle (versus going to CUNY in Queens or Pace downtown).

    Thanks!

    Hi, I am about halfway through the old LR CC (around Weakening Question problem sets) and I am looking to switch to the new beta CC for LR. Has anyone done this? I am looking for advice on the most efficient way to make the switch!

    I am studying from the core curriculum beta version and i am completely lost on the logic. I think I need a more visual explanation because I really don't feel like I understand it.

    If anyone has any advice or suggestions on what to do so I can understand it.
