I indicated to LSAC that I don't have a quiet place to test and haven't heard anything back from them. Has anyone else had this problem? I saw a while ago someone said LSAC gave them a reimbursement for a hotel room and wondering if I should reach out to them or if they will let me know what they can offer
I want to cancel my score using the Score Preview for First-Time Test Takers but does anyone know if this will also wipe my writing sample? I'm not keen on taking the writing portion again.
Hi, I have a problem when testing my laptop by ProctorU.
It shows my camera width and height could not be found, while I allowed my camera on the website and I could see myself.
Does it happen to anyone else?
Thanks!
So could anyone give me some advice on LR timing?
I had some suggestion such as
Could anyone give me their advice?
Has anyone applied early decision to their first choice law school and received an email from the dean of admission? I'm wondering if this is a good sign. If anyone has an experience like this please please let me know.
Hi! I'm revisiting the LR work and I feel like I've just learned so many things and there are so many things to keep in mind that I've getting a little bogged down. Does anyone have any helpful tips on how the transferred the material they learned in the course content into memory, and then into application for timed sections? I'd really appreciate it!!
*To clarify, I have all the notes and study materials, but I'm having trouble utilizing it efficiently and memorizing all the considerations.
Does anybody know the deadline to change your test date from November to January?

"In the Introduction to Logic lessons, J.Y. talks about how All Jedis use the Force, and J is in a small circle (sufficient) within the domain of the F (necessary).
But in Advanced Logic, he talks about how A->(B->C) = A and B ->C = A is “kicked up” and B->C happens in A’s domain.
But how come the domain in the first Jedi example is the necessary clause? But then the domain is the sufficient clause in the Advanced Logic example?"
If you take a practice test and later delete it, how does that show up in the Problem Sets section where it says "Taken 1 time" etc., If you have taken the section, but deleted it, will it show up as "Taken 1 time" or as blank?
I'm trying my first practice test on the Lawhub platform to prep for test day on Saturday. Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but how do you end the section when you finish? 7Sage has a check for when you're done, but all I'm seeing on the LSAC platform is "pause section" which doesn't end it. Also, is there a way to just take the 3 sections like flex?
Thanks!
Hi all! Just a quick question here. I know your face must be visible for the entire LSAT-Flex. Does your tabletop need to be visible as well, or only shown during room scan? My webcam has a clear view of my face, but not of my hands or desktop while I write on scratch paper. I wasn't able to find anything about this, but just wanted to check.
I currently use an external monitor as the only view of my screen - my laptop remains closed while I am using it and cannot be used as a split-screen. This passed the ProctorU software sweep. Just wanted to make sure - is this okay?
Thanks everyone! Good luck October takers :)
Hello 7Sagers,
I have been doing untimed sections from the 40's and 50's and have been still missing questions. I'm pretty solid on understanding the stimulus but the AC's always seem to trip me up. If anybody would like to go through these LR sections with me and we can go over the questions to really understand what the stimulus is saying and work through the AC's showing how the right one is right and the wrong one is wrong I would love to have a Zoom/Video chat session to go over them. I'm available on Fridays and Saturdays all day. If interested just comment below or PM me!
I've done my undergrad in the U.S but had to return back to Canada upon graduating. I was wondering what would be the case if I attended law school in the U.S with a student visa? Is there a way to obtain a green card via sponsorship to continue to stay and work in the U.S?
Hello 7Sagers,
There seems to be some contention between test takers who notate and who do not notate on RC. What is some feedback that ya'll could give on the matter? I started out notating and now I sort of just translate and keep the material in my head. It seems to be about the equivalent regarding answering the questions correctly. However, I would love some feedback from the forum!

I've never self-studied before, and I'm struggling with pacing myself. Please let me know if you have any thoughts on:
I realize that everyone learns differently, but any tips or ideas on pacing would be deeply appreciated!
I struggle with performance when taking timed PTs. Untimed, I rarely miss any questions. However, under the pressure of time, I'm only getting halfway through each section, likely due to nerves impacting my confidence and my process (taking way too long reading/eliminating etc.).
My question is, in order to get the best use of analytics, should I be cutting myself off when the time ends (despite having so much of the section undone)? Or should I just finish it at my own pace and take that as my score?
A side note: I use benchmarks to track my time and I know logically that I have to move fast and skip hard questions. I've also completed every page of the LSAT Trainer, so I feel reasonably prepared for testing. Still, I get so anxious that I can't really "sense" the hard questions from the easy ones and I either: (1) Skip so many that I feel freaked out by the amount I'm not doing which kills my performance or (2) to avoid the previous scenario, I just don't skip any.
I'm wondering if cutting myself off when time is up, although it sucks and it is super stressful, might help me overall improve my instincts for questions to skip and improve my ability to manage my pace overall. Does anyone know if this is the best approach to fixing it? Any other ideas are also GREATLY appreciated.

I am planning on taking the November and January LSAT. But I am getting nervous because many schools that I want to apply to have deadlines in early February or rolling! (SoCal law schools) Will I still have a chance to get into a law school even if I submit my application in late January to start fall 2021?
Recently on a reddit post I found people saying it was okay to use command F on the flex test for RC and refer back to a specific part on a passage. This sounded kind of "sus" to me but I wanted to make sure and ask people here that might know. But if it is allowed that would be a major hack for myself and I'm sure many others, as I often have an idea of what a question is referring too and all i need is a way to quickly go back to that exact part in the passage and confirm my thoughts.
My analytics say I need help in these areas. I would greatly appreciate any advise about how to approach these questions or how to best use 7sage to study in these areas. Thanks!
I read in their guidelines that you need to show both sides of the paper and pen, when starting the writing portion. However, when I was taking it; at no point did it prompt me to do it. Is anyone else confused about this?
I got Score Preview for the August LSAT and can't decide if I should cancel my score. Is it bad that law schools will see that I canceled a score? I can't seem to find many opinions on this since the score preview is new.
I was an idiot and didn't purchase score preview initially, so now I need to go back and do it, but can't find it anywhere on the lsac website. Could someone who has already done it let me know how? I'm trying to avoid calling LSAC because I know they'll put me on hold forever. Thanks!
Hi all, would anyone be interested in a personal statement swap?
If so, pm me!
Looking for someone to BR with!
