I’m wondering if anyone else finds the estimated times for the lessons are way lower than the time they are spending? There are some lessons (most lessons) that say they should take 2-4 minutes to read and I spend easily 10 minutes reading them. I’m not worried about it because I think the time I’m taking to really understand the concepts and take notes will help me in the long run. That being said everything is taking me a LOT longer so my studying process will be longer.

Do other people have this experience? Advice? Comments?

Does anyone know where the section or something went or what it is under where JY provides a link to articles that can help us get use to reading complex topics?

Hello I was wondering if anyone had good tips on how to get -3 and -4 in lr and rc I really need to improve these two categories what worked best for you guys on improving these two sections?

Which would be better to take Khan or 7sage and what year

I been having a hard time overcoming this plateau I been in for the past 2 months. I finally saw a difference in how I engaged with the material with my lsat PT and saw a small increase. What I been doing has been making sure I have a strategy for every LR question, but I still have a hard timing getting those level 4-5 questions correct. I know the way to get better at logic games is to just do them everyday. If anything has helped anyone overcome a plateau I'm all ears. I been studying for 5 months now and taking the January exam and I'm just becoming frustrated because feels like anything I do isn't helping. Any comments will be very helpful even if it has to do with a strategy for a question type.

I am 28 years old and a full time nurse. I plan to only apply to part time night programs for law school for fall of 2023. My plan right now is to try and have a baby before I start year 1. I am aware it can take a long time to get pregnant but ideally the baby would be anywhere from 8 to 3 months old before classes start. I would be able to take advantage of my maternity leave with my current job and my phenomenal health insurance. While in school I would hire a babysitter 4-5 hours a day so I can exclusively study but the baby wouldn't have to leave the house and go to daycare. I would be home for emergencies just studying in my office. My goals for doing this would be to be able to have a child almost in school by the time I am an associate (Part time programs take 4 years). I would not have to worry about infant care and being a brand new attorney with demanding partners/clients ect and working a grueling day time schedule.

My other options are pushing back my pregnancy after year one and having a baby in the summer hopefully in-between semesters. The downside is not having maternity leave or dual insurances.

Has anyone on this forum had a baby prior to year 1 and had success pairing this with a part time program? Or is this absolutely insane even with a part time night program?

I should also mention I have a super supportive husband who works a very reliable 8-4 job who would be the primary caregiver while I am in class in the evening.

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:)

Hi, I've been studying for the LSAT from July this year. My target is 170+ in the Jan 2024 LSAT (ambitious, i know). But my study schedule has not been consistent. It has seen breaks because of a couple of days because of me being sick or vacation or just my mental health. I have been cognizant of the fact that I would have to take a second attempt and the first one is just a trial run to be more familiar with the exam, but what can I do to maximise my score in the Jan (first attempt) exam itself? My RC and LR sections are strong but I'm PTing in the late 40s because of LG.

I took a “diagnostic” PT 57 and scored a 158.

-12 LG, -6 LR, -7 LR, -5 RC

Diagnostic in quotes bc I took the LSAT 8 years ago and scored a 157. After lurking on the discussion board, I’m realizing there’s a lot more prep that I can do. Originally I was planning to take LSAT Aug 2024, but I’m leaning towards prepping for the June 2024 test and retaking without LG if necessary. I’m hopeful that my low LG score means a higher ceiling and I’m worried about gambling on what the second LR might look like on the first administration w/out LG.

My plan is to work through the Foolproof book for the next 4 weeks and then start 7Sage CC in December and hit PTs/BR hard starting in March. I work full time (HS teacher) and don’t have a ton of disposable income to put towards prep/tutors etc.

Thoughts on this plan? Target is 167+

Any advice about this or people In similar positions for next cycle?

Big news: starting in August 2024, the LSAT will no longer include a Logic Games section. Instead, it will have a second Logical Reasoning section.

Read more about this change and how we're helping test-takers prepare in this blog post.

Check out our new score converter tool, which lets you use old PTs to get a sense for how you'd score on the two-LR version of the test.

Here are instructions on how to access our brand-new LR curriculum, part of V2 of our Core Curriculum.

Im in the final week before the test - i feel like my anxiety is making me forget the basic and make dumb mistakes (my last 2 PTs show an incremental decrease of my score.

Should I read the question first or read the stimuli first?

Every time I go to purchase a prep course, it says that I am not logged in, but I am already logged in and it won't allow me to insert my payment info at all

I receive double test time per section, I want to ensure when I take a practice test on 7sage, I am using the same conditions. Is there an area in the settings to apply this?

wanted to know if we should do pt 94 just days before our exam

I recently took a PT and as I was taking a LR section, the AC's were invisible and one was marked "Question removed from test" - is there a reason for this?

My thoughts are that the November test will allow me to become familiar with the testing center (the physical environment) as well as the time constraints and noise that is hard to replicate 100% by myself just to be on the safe side. The con is the admissions committee viewing a cancelled score unfavorably on my application, and potential waste of time and resources. I plan to take the January test after studying hard for 2 months. Thank you so much in advance for your responses!

I have completed a couple of drills but unable to view results. I will be glad if someone can please walk me through.

Will November test taker's be able to take the new PT on this platform?

So I just got my score for this October LSAT. Got a 150 after having spent the last 4 ish months PTing around 160-166. To say i'm quite devastated is an understatement but I'm going to chalk it up as a really bad fluke because I kind of let the nerves get to me on test day. I guess I just want some advice on what people do to help them on their actual test days to get their scores to mirror what they're actually capable of. Also, I'm scheduled to take January as the schools I'm applying to all accept the January test as the latest and my applications are already submitted. Is this going to hinder my chances of getting in anywhere because I understand admissions are on a rolling basis. Do you guys think they'll truly wait on my January score if it says thats the latest they'll accept?

What happened to the old check box for the Modern Preptests where it discarded the extra section? There used to be a selection box for this option when taking full preptests... Just took PT91 for example and it made me do all 4 sections. I thought there used to be an option to cut out the extra section.

For anyone interested, PT 94, administered in July 2020, is now available on Lawhub.

If you are taking the test next weekend and are interested in some heavy(or light) lifting/studying this weekend, we are setting up review/study sessions this weekend, join us for the final push! Here is the server link for more details: https://discord.gg/F7hfKwh6

Does anyone else struggle with LG way more than LR and RC? I significantly improved on those sections, but I haven’t improved much on LG. It’s the one section that’s REALLY holding me back. So, I have a some questions.

For the games you have trouble with:

-How many times do you repeat them?

-How long do you wait between each repeat?

-When do you start timing yourself?

-When do you expect to get the game done in target time?

-More broadly, what is your LG study process?

My process is as follows:

I’m working on In/Out games right now. I’ll do the problem set on my own untimed. I’ll then watch the explanation video and set the game up like JY. I’ll compare my notations and diagramming to his. I’ll then rework the game question by question using the new setup. I’ll attempt each question again by myself and then watch JY explain it. After this, I’ll table the game for 1-2 days and then try it again on my own. It will be better at this point, but I usually don’t hit the target time.

Is this process effective? Is there anything I could do differently?
