I'm registered for the June 2022 exam but I want to delay it to August/Sept but it doesn't have the option for me to to change dates? Does anyone know why is it that we can't see or choose later dates?

Going through some problem sets and I've noticed that inference and MBT are labelled distinctly despite that fact that I thought they were identical question types. Am I missing some nuance between the two?

Hi anyone else facing problems in scheduling? Every slot is not available

Just started the first week in cc of LG and feel like I am an idiot. When I am doing the problem set, I can barely get 50% right answers for 3 star questions within 17:30. Couldnt calm down when I am drawing game board and make inference properly. Misread stem all the time. But during blind review I could easily draw a game board almost the same as JY and may only miss one question eventually. Dont know why that happened. Any advice to improve? Or just practice? My brain's like frozen with time restriction lol

Are you supposed to finish every problem set for each LR question type in the core curriculum before you move on to a new LR question type?

Just opened up Proctor U to check if I could schedule because I remembered hearing that people who were NOT first time test takers were able to schedule earlier on Proctor U ahead of the time that LSAC emails out the link. It worked!!!! I am scheduled now and got the time I wanted!!!! Go check if you are a repeat test taker! Sending good vibes to all testing in June, we got this!

This is not really helping me to diagnose weaknesses: I got 7/7 in one 4-star Law RC and missed 2 on a much easier Law RC on the same Pt.

AND: the harder one was the final section of the RC and the final section of the test so in theory I should have been more tired. So I can rule that out as a possible explanation.

Not really a question; it's just kind of mystifying!

Hi everyone! This is related to PT55S3Q24, but it is on necessary assumption questions with conditional language in general-- how do you do the negation test with conditional AC's? And what is a good approach for NA Q's with conditional language in the stimulus-- sometimes I feel like I can approaching them too similarly to a SA Q. Thanks!

Wondering because it would make my life easier in RC.

I've been taking LR sections untimed and generally get between -0 and -2. Depending on the overall difficulty of the section I usually take between 35-45 minutes. However, when I take timed practice tests my accuracy goes down. I notice that many of the questions I missed were because I overlook certain details that would've clued me into the right answer, and on blind review I usually catch all of these errors. Any tips as to how one should generally go about building up their speed?

Hi,

I have been practicing logic games for a month now and I am still not getting any faster. I don't know what to do, I still cannot finish them in the allotted time. What has helped all of you get faster at these?

I was looking through discussion threads of when individuals plan to take their LSAT. I only decided about two weeks ago after a gap year I would like to apply for Fall 2023, and since have been doing my best to study often and effectively. I was under the impression it would be okay to take in September, but it seems most plan to take it in June or August. Am I considerably behind if I plan on September? I realize that applications open around October so that would be a quick turn around, would that be a bad thing if I feel I really need the entire summer to study?

Hey all,

I've noticed that, when there is a question such as "Which of the following, if true, determines all [placements within the given game]?" the answer choice includes the placement of the free agent, which is often the last piece that goes unplaced since the other answer choices leave it up to question. Therefore, I've begun testing answer choices with looking for the one or ones that tell where the free agent goes. This has sped up my elimination process significantly.

Anybody else see this?

Hello! I hope all is well! Does anyone know what order of question types JY recommends to study for LR?

I'm sure it goes: 1. MP/MC, 2. MSS, 3. AP, 4. WEAKEN, 5. STRENGTHEN etc... (If i messed up that order please correct me lol)

But what goes after those (according to 7sages advice)? Thanks!

Happy studying!

So I have been studying for the June 2022 LSAT for roughly 6 months during school and have not been able to dedicate as much time as I would like. I am aiming to get above a 170+. I spend most of my time drilling sections, not taking as many PTS. I have gotten a 173 as my highest score on a PT (only once) and have broken into the 170+ range two others times both 172. Right now I typically get the anywhere between a 165-170 on my PTS. Should I wait to take the LSAT in August to try improving my score and using the summer to study? Or should I go for the June test and use my one time look ahead for a score cancellation for first time test takers? I am conflicted because I feel like I am right on he cusp of getting where I want to be and I have three more weeks until the June 11 test. Just wondering what anyone else's thoughts were on this! Thanks!

Does anyone remember the game set of sequencing toys?

I remember it was sequencing toys with different colors..!

Didn't took a note on that:(

What insights or resources helped you to conquer Reading Comp?

So, I just finished the MC/MSS section of the program. It seems I am still struggling with it here and there. With it being complete, I am reviewing notes trying to figure out how to do it faster and better, but obviously I have already been exposed to the questions in the course. Outside of the actual practice tests, is there another way I can study those sections independent of the whole test to hopefully gain a mastery of it?

If I take the LSAT in August 2022, will I still be able to apply for law school so that I can begin in Fall 2023?

For this question, I did not choose A because I created a world where F is not 1 lower than S and I don't understand what I'm getting wrong, I doubled checked the rules.

The world is: F K J S M G H

lol I know I did not crack the lsat, #help fr

Thanks :)

Hello,

I often find myself eliminating three answer choices, resulting in two remaining choices that I waste undue amounts of time deciding between. Does anyone have any advice on a formulaic way of selecting an answer choice with the highest chance of accuracy while minimizing the amount of time lost? Thank you!

I don't understand how E is the answer. I can we say that it must true that some of his friends must be lying? Is it cause we know that John isn't unique from them and knows no person who smoked 40 cigarettes a day for the past 40 years

and yet who is really fit and well?

I've noticed lately that my accuracy on the arts RC passages (art movements, literature, architecture, etc.) tends to be lower than my accuracy on all the other types. My best explanation for this is that I simply have a harder time absorbing and comprehending the information presented in these passages due to having had little exposure to the subject matter (I'm majoring in math and philosophy). It's taking too much brains-space to try and read for structure as well as keeping details in mind for those questions that ask for specifics (I scan the questions before reading the passage). I think reading some literature similar to those arts passages might help with this problem by giving me more exposure. Does anyone have recommendations as to where I could start to look?

Taking the LSAT in August btw

I am having a hard time understanding the rationale behind the correct answer choice being 'B' and why it wouldn't be choice 'D'

Hi. I took April LSAT then scored 158 from the test (I am planning to cancel this score since I purchased the LSAT score preview). It is not a horrible result as a first-time test taker, but disappointing for me b/c I am aiming the score around 165 as my target.

I know I am looking forward to substantial rise, but I wish to ask: do you think is it possible for me to get 165 in just three weeks?

My average PT score is around 160 - 165, depending on questions, conditions..etc. In usual, it stays around 160-162 and reach up to 165 on a lucky day.

Now I am preparing for June LSAT, which is only three weeks away from now (I will take the test in South Korea btw), and wish to ask for some advices about my plan and feasibility of getting this target score.

I am not really worrying about LG since I have gotten -0, -1, or -2 in most (almost all) recent attempts. I think what should I do is taking a section drill in every day or two then getting more comfortable with this section.

My LR scores are really inconsistent. Sometimes I get -3, sometimes it drops down to -9. I've considered the reason why. For now, I suppose one reason lies on the moment when I fall into a loophole. When I cannot understand points of some questions, I often get to think too deeply then feel some obviously wrong answer choices look correct (I regret a lot on this type of questions when I review). Therefore, I am re-reading Powerscore, LSAT trainer, Notes I've taken from 7Sage courses, and wrong questions to specify a proper thinking strategy I should hold during a test thus I can return to this task whenever I try to fall into a loophole. I am also taking a section drill in every two days to clarify whether this is working or not.

RC is my weakest section. I usually get -7 and get almost half wrong when I completely screwed it up (not really often). I've re-read a LSAT trainer to identify the reason why, as I've done in LR, then found out the fact that I often focus on a tree instead of a forest. When I reach to questions about a specific part of passage, I focus too much on the part they specified then neglect/forget a general purpose or main points of the work. This made me missing a whole point during the test then getting wrong on both general and specific questions. Therefore, to overcome this bad habit, I am writing down a purpose of each passage whenever I review the passages I've done and taking a section drill every day to adapt myself into a more general perspective. + I'm especially struggling with a comparative passage because I am really, REALLY bad at it. I often miss the relationship between two passages and distort a point of the Passage A while reading the Passage B. Thus, if you have any specific tip on solving a comparative passage's questions, I am happy to hear that.

I am planning to take a full PT once or twice per week (may take 3 PTs in a last week or two), depending on the amount of time for review. In between each PT, I will take two section drills almost every day while I review. (LG, RC for day 1, LR, RC for day 2...) I planned like this because I think what should I do right now is clarifying the BEST thinking strategy for me for each section, not just mechanically taking PTs over and over again. I believe this may bring my score up substantially.

How do you think about the plans above? Well, even I am not really optimistic on getting the score I am aiming for, but nevertheless, I wish to do my best under the current circumstance. Therefore, I am happy to hear any comment/advice. If you have any tip on question solving (especially on RC and LR), it would be grateful if you can share.
