Proctors: Decent, actually kind of funny, very relaxed. Made a couple of jokes throughout that eased the tension a bit 9/10.

Facilities: Older building, temperature was perfect, probably right at 65 degrees 9/10

What kind of room: Class Room

How many in the room: About 40

Desks: TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!! Tiny desks, LG was a nightmare 0/10

Left-handed accommodation: A couple of spare desks

Noise levels: Great building for an older university 9/10

Parking: Free parking on Saturdays, ample room 9/10

Time elapsed from arrival to test: About 30 minutes

Irregularities or mishaps: Stupid obvious questions from other test takers

Other comments:

Would you take the test here again?

Absolutely not. Based solely on the size of the desk. I actually felt as if it was a terrible disadvantage and not only slowed me down on LG logistically but also added an extra stress that I needed to accommodate for. other than this, no other complaints.

Proctors: Proctors were fine. A little distracting (looking at phones during test) but mostly quiet enough. Enforced rules pretty well. 5/10

Facilities: You know. It's a college campus. Pretty normal.

What kind of room: Large lecture hall.

How many in the room: 80-100? Maybe more?

Desks: I received 2 tiny desks. Not enough room for book and answer sheet, much less the rest of my stuff. Ended up with a hacked-together system of book on one desk, answer sheet tucked underneath it, and my extra supplies on the seat of the desk next to me.

Left-handed accommodation: N/A

Noise levels: Loud. Ventilation going, shocked at how noisy my neighbors were. I think it may have been the acoustics of the rum. Just couldn't really concentrate.

Parking: N/A

Time elapsed from arrival to test: A while. Mostly because the other students in the test center took freaking forever to fill out the pre-test stuff.

Irregularities or mishaps: None.

Other comments: The whole thing felt like a circus. I don't think the proctors really had a grasp on anything at all.

Would you take the test here again? Under no circumstances. I did take the test 2 more times and instead of taking it at Georgetown I traveled 300 miles to take it at the awesome test center near my parents.

Senior year of high school I took classes through a local community college for high school and college credit. Should I include this on my resume? The transcript is included in my academic summary report and it was only 18 credit hours. Also, not sure if this has an impact but after this I transferred to another community college to get my AA before transferring for my BA and I've included both of these institutions. Is a third too much? Thanks!

Hey guys,

I am wondering if CPA PEP (Canada) is considered a mandatory institution for LSAC transcript requirements. Its a professional designation for an accounting license which requires module work to be done.

I e-mailed LSAC about it but shocker, no reply for ages.

I'm caught in this trap where I try to spend as many possible hours as I can reviewing and studying PTs but I think not having a definite boundary has been detrimental. I'm more likely to be fatigued and the quality of my studying drops since I spread my time out so generally. I think I could focus a lot more by dedicating some amount of time to coordinate myself, but I don't know what would be enough. Maybe I think that 8 hours is necessary for example but it turns out I could do everything in 4 or 5. I know this is different from person to person, but I'd like to hear different kinds of approaches. Is there something you've found that works for you?

I have an absent and a 159 on file.

Took the August 2023 LSAT, just got a 157 and cancelled it.

I currently have the September LSAT scheduled, and I will be taking the October one too.

However, if I score worse than 159 in September, I would have to cancel it again. My file would look like absent-159-cancel-cancel

Should I take the September LSAT or should I reschedule it to October?

I believe I have until 31st 11:59pm ET to both reschedule to October and to register for October. Am I correct?

Thank you all so much.

Hello all,

I felt pretty good about my LSAT writing. However when I got it back, I noticed two typos in the second to last paragraph (a missing "the" and a missing "an"). Is this enough of an issue that I should retake it? I definitely don't mind re-taking it, if this is something to be concerned about. I'm re-taking the LSAT anyways so I expect if I let them know, then I could apply to re-submit a writing exam.

Proctors:

Morning test start, so make sure you arrive at David Turpin building at the very latest 8:30am. The check-in will be right in the main floor when you enter in the building.

Facilities:

David Turpin Building - Large Class Room - Holds a couple hundred students

What kind of room:

The seating rows are like stadium seating sloping down towards the chalkboard

How many in the room:

I would approximate the attendance to be close to 150 students

Desks:

Large tables with swivel chairs that are very uncomfortable and do not allow for much adjustment because they are fastened to the tables.

Left-handed accommodation:

Yes

Noise levels:

Noise levels are very good. Very few distractions.

Parking:

Parking is also very good with a huge stadium parking lot right across the road from the test taking building. Because the tests are done on Saturday there is usually plenty of space and I only had to pay $2.50 for the whole day.

Time elapsed from arrival to test:

Arrival time 8:30 - Finish time 1:40pm October 2015 write date (it was very unorganized for this write date)

Arrival times 8:30 - Finish time 12:40pm February 2016 write date

Irregularities or mishaps:

In October 2015 there was a section that no 5 minute warning was announced which was frustrating for many test takers that day. The staff at the February write were much more organized and more pleasant to deal with.

Other comments:

Would you take the test here again?

Yes, definitely. Although it would be nice to have more comfortable chairs for the 4 hour experience.

I had been working from 62-71 for most of my prep this time and had done 29-38 previously. I meant to order 52-61 to use for some drill so I could work on my weaker sections. But I found that I accidentally ordered another volume of 62-71. Would it be better for me to actually use that and retake some sections of PTs I had done, as my original copy is heavily annotated, or to return it and get the volume I meant to have?

Recently, the Priorities section of my analytics has been super bugged.

Tags are often ranked as higher priorities than they should be. Some tags in which I have 100% accuracy are ranked from "highest" to "medium" priority, and all RC tags are labled "highest priority" except one.

Here are some screenshots demonstrating the problem:

Is anyone else experiencing this bug? How can I report this to 7Sage?

Hi everyone :). I would really appreciate some advice on the LR section of the LSAT. I have studied the LR section of the exam through 7 sage+ LSAT trainer. I have recently done around 5 sections untimed sections from multiple tests. I have been scoring around 15-16. I would really like to increase that score. I am wiring the exam in October and I want to get around 21-22 questions right under timed conditions. I was planning to keep doing full sections after sections till my score increases, and then time myself. I am also making sure that I read the explanation for why I am getting the questions wrong. I wanted some advice. Should I continue to do individual sections ? Or should I review the LR curriculum again ?

Thank You :)

So I took the LSAT yesterday and came out almost crying.

I have two score already 162 and 171(Jan 2019) and TWO CANCELLATIONS (Nov 2018 and June 2019)

My goal is to get into the t6 and so was aiming for a 173+ at this test. Consistenly PTed about 172-178 so thought it was worth a shot, and the games completely destroyed me. I probably guessed at least 10 questions on LG.

If I keep score, I’m predicting a score around 165 - or even lower. I hate to see a score decline :(. But if I cancel, I would have three cancellations and I feel it’ll look so bad to the admissions officers.

Should I cancel or keep score? Your advice is much appreciated!

Proctors: The proctors were absolutely terrible. They acted as if they had no clue as to what was going on. After the rules and everything else had been read, including the statement that you have to write. they admitted 2 people without reading the rules again. They did not check for phones, and several went off, mostly emergency weather alerts due to flooding in the area. During the break, one test taker asked if he could be given his test back, since he didn't bubble any of his answer choices due to the proctor not saying when 5 minutes were left. The proctors gave him his test book and answer sheet back for the entire break and let him work on it.

Facilities:

Very nice facilities. Very fancy.

What kind of room:

Classroom

How many in the room:

50

Desks:

Long table-like desks. Not individual desks but plenty of room

Left-handed accommodation:

Not necessary

Noise levels:

Due to the phone emergency alerts, noise level was high, as well as proctors just sitting there laughing and asking each other if they set the timer correctly.

Parking:

Parking deck right across the street

Time elapsed from arrival to test:

1.5 hrs Super slow and annoying

Irregularities or mishaps:

Already mentioned

Other comments:

I filed an LSAC complaint. LSAC said the proctors denied any of this happening LOL

Would you take the test here again?

HELL NO. AVOID LIKE THE PLAGUE

LG was by far my worst section (-17 on cold diagnostic), and now that is at a -6. I was planning on finishing LG, but these "in-out" games seem to rely on previous lessons in LR (I assume), is it time to pivot and do LR then come back to LG?

Also, how often do these pop up? I've done 3 PTs and never had one, just seq, seq twist, and grouping.

we have over 149 members on this discord server, so there is probably a good chance that you'll find a group you'll fit into. We've already hit the ground running, would love to see all of you there. We have a study session scheduled for 2pm-4pm ET, and you can choose between LR room, LG room, and RC room. Hopefully one (or more) of our 149 members will join you in the struggle.

Here is the link: https://discord.gg/YWc9pVNC.

May the force be with you.

Is it a good idea to use the BR method for non-timed pts? I like to work on older pts such as 30 to 50 slowly while Im at work or If I need to drill and keep my mind sharp and to make it a habit to not forget anything.

Im using 51 to present pts for my actual timed pts while I study for the October exam so Im not concerned with wasting pts.

Hello! My 7Sage course is going to expire after the December test day, which is hopefully going to be a permanent situation cause we're all gonna rock the LSAT!

Anyway, I was wondering if "My Notes" also get deleted/cleared when the course expires? Cause I did take a bunch of notes and I was hoping to keep them.

Thanks in advance for your knowledge!
