Hi all -- I'm confused about how to access the writing section for the June 2022 LSAT. My test is tomorrow morning, June 11. Am I supposed to click "start test"? Also, am I allowed to take the writing section after the actual LSAT? Thank you!
P.S. Good luck to all test takers!!
would answer choice B be incorrect because of "do not know?" what makes A a better choice?

I never got an email to make a proctoru username and password but now it says I have to log in???
what do I do
Taking the June LSAT this Saturday. I have been taking as many tests as I can recently, taking PT 92 today and getting my highest score. I have 2 more full days before test day. What do y'all suggest one does in these upcoming days? I was planning on taking another PT tomorrow and then taking a break the day before the test. I am starting to think I should not take another PT and keep my confidence up with the one I took today. I do know that there is room for improvement for my PT scores, so should I try to maximize that before test day, or is it too close to make any progress?
Also, what kind of advice would you give for test day? My test is at 1pm, so what would you recommend I do that morning?
Hey everyone,
I just finished my LSAT writing section. However, I realized that when it prompted me to take a picture of my id, i held it away from the camera and next to my face on accident. I believe it will be super blurry, so is this something I need to worry about? Am I overreacting?
I arrived at the correct answer, (A), by process of elimination. I understand why (B)-(E) are incorrect, but how does (A) strengthen the argument?
How can I do the logic game problem set over without seeing the answers? I did it one time, struggled now want to do it for the second time. Please help!
Hey all! Just need some advice on which section of the CC I should dive into first. I know typically it's recommended to follow the outlined structure: LR -> LG -> RC. I worked on LR predominantly on another curriculum before switching to 7Sage and it's one of my better sections. I haven't touched LG, at all, and know it's my weakest.
That being said, do you recommend I just tackle LG first?
LSAC just sent out an email mentioning that we should not take the test in a room with floor to ceiling windows, but this wasn't explicitly discussed in the Candidate Agreement. The candidate agreement says no rooms with glass walls (like cubicles), so this entire time I've been planning to take my test in my kitchen where I have a dining table. However, the kitchen leads to the backyard so there is a sliding door that is almost floor to ceiling...what should I do?
When does ProctorU open up time slots for the September and October LSAT? Should I make a ProctorU account prior to receiving an email from LSAC? Additionally, does anyone know the earliest and latest times in a day to take the exam?
Hi - I am confused - do we need to create a ProctorU username and password ahead of time?
It seems to suggest it in Step#4 here: https://www.lsac.org/lsat/taking-lsat
but it wouldn't let me when I tried here: https://go.proctoru.com/students/users/new

Hey guys, so I am testing my laptop for this weekend and I've allowed camera and microphone use, but everytime I test it, it says that camera width and height are not found. Can anyone please help me?
I think I have learned the key to LR.
Overall you can classify most LR questions by the type of answer they are looking for.
Powerful Question Types
Strengthen
Weaken
Sufficient Assumption
Paradox
Provable
Necessary Assumption
Flaw
Main Conclusion
If you focus in on these chareteristics of correct answer choices you will be able to rule out most of the time 3/5 answer choices. Leaving you with a 50 percent chance to get the answer correct. Once you've done this you look at the two answer choices and look to see whats wrong with one rather than whats correct about one.
Hi everyone,
I'm an international candidate, and the only reasonable time I could sign up for was 5:30am local time.
Early morning hours between 2am and 5:30am were the only options I had left right after receiving the sign-in email from LSAC at around noon on May 26 eastern time (I'm a first-time test taker). I sent an email to LSAC to ask if I could schedule for an evening time, but I'm not confident that they will let me reschedule. Candidates in my country have been complaining about this time zone issue since 2020, and LSAC still isn't providing more time slot options for international candidates.
Are there other international candidates who had to take the test very early in the morning, and do you have any tips? Right now I'm performing at about 15 points below my practice test scores because I can't even finish the questions on time. (I normally finish all of the questions and have time left to review.)
I've been practicing waking up at 3:30am, have 2 hours to wake up my brain, and take a practice test at 5:30am, but it hasn't been very successful. So I would appreciate any and all tips you could share! Thanks in advance.
Is a writing board allowed for the online LSAT (just a wooden/plastic board to place the scratch paper on), most table surfaces aren't conducive to placing the paper directly on them and writing on the same. I have mailed LSAC but just wanted to know if anyone who has taken the online LSAT has used it or has been asked by the Proctor not to use it?
Does anyone have any advice for notetaking/annotation for online LSAT? It seems so much more time consuming to use online functions than to simply underline on a paper test. Just looking for some helpful information before my test.
I have been scoring almost perfect on LR & RC within the time constraints (-1 or -0 on both).
I can only get -6 when taking LG with the time constraints BUT when I do LG problem sets with no time constraints I get -0. Does anyone have advice for doing LG faster without messing up?
I am working through the CC right now, still only in LR. What is your strategy for reviewing information? Everything is comprehensive and I know that I am retaining what I've learned thus far because I apply it in the exercises, but I feel like I couldn't necessarily summarize the information, I just know it mechanically for the most part. Do you guys go back or use other sources? Time is precious as I am taking it in August, I just want to make sure I am not losing information.
Hi, I wonder if anyone can direct me to find the link to "get acquainted with lsat writing"? I remember reading about this tool in preparation for June's LSAT and today finally decide to try it out but could not find the link anymore. Did they take it down because the real writing session had begun? Or am I looking at the wrong places? A link would be highly appreciated.
Btw I heard this writing is not really important - is that correct? I kinda wanna just do the writing before the multiple choice test so I don't have to think about it anymore but definitely have not had a lot of practice...
Thank you!
I wasn't sure which phrase would indicate the self-interest

where can I find a lesson on the difference between these two question types?
I finished the LR part of the core curriculum and took the Single LR Section. I didn't do well because of timing. Should I do more LR or just move onto the LG and RC sections?
I am having a hard time understanding why 'D' is the correct answer choice. I initially chose 'A' as my answer, yet obviously, this was incorrect. I was hoping someone could break it down for me and explain why 'D' is correct and why 'A' is incorrect. Thank you in advance
