Multi Colored pens

I have an accommodation that let's me take the printed version of the LSAT. Am I allowed to write on the printed exam with different colored pens or highlighters?

Hi, I'm planning to take the September LSAT with a target score of 168-170. (Ideally 170 but I'm not sure if that's realistic at this point.)

My first diagnostic test, without doing any core curriculum, was 164 (I majored in Computer Science, so I was pretty familiar with logics to begin with). This was in early June, about two months ago.

Now I have taken about 6 more PTs since I finished my core curriculum about a month ago. One of them was 170, but the others were consistently 166-167.

I know it has improved a bit, but the improvements came from LG, going from average -4 to -1. The lack of improvements in RC I understand a little more, since RC is generally the hardest to improve, but my score in LR has either stayed the same, or even got worse (ranging from -4 to -7).

This is worrying me quite a bit because I have been focusing mainly on LR; I worked a lot on dividing the section into the first 15 and last 10, timing strategy, and going back to CCs. Before, I had barely any time to do the last three questions or go over other questions at the end. Now I fly thorugh the first 15 ( except for maybe 1 or 2 harder questions) and I have a plenty of time to do the harder questions. There are even times that I have like 6-7 minutes left at the end of an LR section to look over certain questions one more time. I finish the sections way more confident than ever, but the results are so inconsistent. I usually get 1 easier question wrong, and the rest are from the last 10, ranging from 3 to 6 wrong answers. But even though I have improved in skills (better reasoning skills, hunting for the answer, skipping, timing, etc.), my score stayed the same or even got worse.

I have a month left now, and I want to get at least 168 on this... Do you think this lack of improvement in score is from just not having taken enough PTs yet, or do you think maybe because I was familiar with logic in the beginning, I did not have a lot of room to improve in the first place?

I have put in a lot of work for two months, but it's so discouraging not seeing my score imporve...

Hi, I was wondering if there was a way to pause your problem sets when you're practicing and return to the same question that you left off with when you come back. I was thinking this would be good because I created really long problem sets and when I try to do them on the new digital format I have to do it all in one sitting. I would really like to get a feel for the digital LSAT but still have the option to pause and pick it up again where I left off at a later time. Thanks!

I have been studying the LSAT for two weeks now and so far I have done one week LG, another week of LR and this week I'm doing RC. I feel like this is a good study schedule but a part of me is telling me to mix it up a little so I'm really not sure. I plan on taking it in January and I am using LSAT trainer, Khan and now 7Sage

CC V2

The new version prompt is not appearing on my syllabus. A youtube video explanation of it briefly appeared then disappeared. How do I change over?

Thanks

Reading Comp

Are you allowed scratch paper during the reading comp section of the test? I know you are allowed it for logic games, just wondering if its allowed for the entire thing?? Thanks

It's my goal practice law in my home state of Pennsylvania, but I don't want to rule out attending any schools outside of my state if the school is recognized enough to get work back in the area.

About where on the list is a school recognizable enough to be employable after school and out of that state?

Also, are there any niche schools that my not rank high on the list but are more so employable out of state?

Hey guys! I am taking my second round of the LSAT on Feb 8 and my studying is going well, but on the prep test I took yesterday I lost at least four points in my best section because I completely freaked out. I had taken the first two sections of the test completely fine, but by the time i got to section three its like my brain just wasn't reading anything. I've googled stress relief and have done basic stuff like exercise to get the jitters out, but does anyone have stress relief tips that you guys use during the test?

Goodbye Logic Game Section

Anyone have any idea of when LSAC is going to announce what month they are changing to the new test format and getting rid of logic games? I've seen people predict June/July 2024, but how much of a heads up will we get?

I've been studying non-stop rather obsessively and I've been taking more PTs as I've wrapped up the Core Curriculum.

My scores in the past week from oldest to most recent:

PT 50 - 166, PT 36 - 170, PT 70 - 172, PT 86 - 166, PT 71 - 169, PT 87 - 163, PT 69 - 162

I know I could be burnt out but I'm also really worried that the scores have something to do with some tests being easier than others. That's the reason I took PT 70 immediately after taking PT 36, I thought maybe it was because it was older that I got a 170. But now I'm getting 10 points less on PT 69. So am I just burnt out, not scoring as well as I'd hoped, or both?

hi, after taking the LSAT last August I am gearing up to take it again. I have done most of the course work on 7sage but tried to take a practice exam recently and realized I had forgotten a lot. I want to know what is the best strategy for studying, should I begin the course from scratch and watch all the videos?

Hi all,

I need help linking my account to LSAC. I think the issue is due to a typo in my email address that I've since fixed on both platforms but now after updating my email address I get the "Coach already assigned" error that others have experienced.
