Hi all, Looking for general advice. I am applying to multiple Canadian law schools for the 2020 year and had originally planned to take the January 2020 test thinking it would give me the most time to prepare and that the disadvantage in the application process would be worth it. Currently, I am doubting myself and have set up to write the test in November. However, I am doing applications and haven't had a huge opportunity to do full tests yet as I am still finishing the curriculum (just starting Reading Comp) and I feel I will just do the November test and will do awful. On my first test I took I got a 150 and I am hoping to score above a 165 with the knowledge from the curriculum and with at least 10-20 tests completed from now to November. so I guess I have two main questions - What is the cost of writing in January as opposed to November and do you think I am being reasonable? Thanks for any help!

Hi, sagers. When I took the digital LSAT in July, we weren't given stylus pens, so I wrote a note to LSAC and they agreed to send their own note to any school I apply to saying the test center made a mistake, and I felt good about that because I did end up canceling my score. But yesterday, we started 2 hours after the ticket time (how much is reasonable to expect? 2 hours seems excessive and it did make me a ton more anxious) and then had a false start: The director said, "OK, we will now begin the tutorial. Please press start." We pressed start and the real test began! So we lost about 30 seconds because people were yelling, "Wait, this is the real test! Stop it! Start it over!" and whatnot. There was also an incessant squeaking/beeping noise in the room near my desk, which I mentioned to administrators, but they couldn't figure out what was causing it. So at the end, one of the administrators told me that they will be sending a note to LSAC about the delay and the false start. He also told said they'd send another note that I specifically was distracted by a noise they couldn't stop. My question is, do I follow that up with another complaint e-mail to LSAC today or do I just leave it alone? I wouldn't want admissions people to think I'm a "problem test taker" or a complainer! But I do think there's a discrepancy between the test experience I've anticipated and paid money for and the actual experience I've had. Thank you for reading and pretty please advise if you have an informed opinion on this! #help

I am looking for a group of individuals who would like to work together during the blind review process. I attend Fordham University and I can get us a small study room with a white board and everything else that is needed. Looking for a dedicated and serious bunch of people who are ready to kill the LSAT together!

Hi my name is Mark, I'm the father of a cute 1 year old, married and I work full time in the Army. I'm asking for something really unlikely but hey it's worth a shot :) I'm looking for a tutor who can help me for free via the messaging system here on 7S or communicate through non-live chat, mainly due to my constantly changing military and family obligations. I'm PT'ing at about 160, BR'ing in the low 170's and I have an intense drive to hit that 170!! :D I wake up early to study before work, study over lunch, and I hit the library after work if my wife has a handle on the crazy 1 year old. I really want to go to Stanford or Harvard and I know I can do it!!! I just need a little help to get there.

I'm taking the November LSAT but I plan on taking at least 2 more LSATs next spring and summer.

Currently I need the most help with descriptive weakening, necessary assumption, parallel flawed method of reasoning, and most strongly supported. I totally suck at LG but I'm working through foolproofing and my RC is usually -7.

Any tips / help is much appreciated and if someone is willing to help out or give tutoring a shot, I'd absolutely appreciate it. Thanks :)

Hi. My name is Juan and I'm starting this new discussion in hopes of connecting with others that suffer from Attention Deficit Disorder and are taking the LSAT with accommodations. If there is anyone in the community that would like to share their experiences, tips or support on how to succeed on the LSAT while having this disorder, I and I'm sure many other will appreciate it. Thanks!

Fee waiver

I have a LSAC fee waiver. How can I provide this information and what does it qualify me for? I'm new to your site, so I'm not certain where to ask these questions.
