Finally test day @2:30pm today! Just wanna take the time to say good luck to everyone who has/will be taking the LSAT. This platform and community has been so encouraging, and a great resource. For anyone just starting, use this discussion board to vent! Realizing you’re not alone makes all the difference. Good luck everyone, thanks for all the support, and God bless!

hello. I took the lsat today and I’m rlly disappointed in myself. While my strategy improved (I had 2-5 mins to review my answers), i felt that I didn’t perform up to my potential of 155-160 (got a 162 br in last pt). I worked so hard and saw so much improvement that I’ve never seen in myself before in these past couple of months. And it’s now all down the drain— I never had this feeling of not performing up to my potential after a test before. I did not even feel this way in my last two attempts (which I admitted to myself they were a complete disaster. No concept of time management). I tried to relax and restore my confidence which worked for me in the second half of the test. But I feel that I’ll get the same 149 score as before and that I failed at reaching my potential. I was hoping to apply now with my Jan lsat score.

Is it normal for anyone to feel this way?

Hi! I have been at this plateau for the last ~6 months. In the last 9 practice tests I've taken, only 3 have been in the 170s. How do I move past this barrier when I feel confident abt questions during the test? Are there recommended daily study routines? I fluctuate between getting -2 and -5 wrong on an LR section and I would just love to get consistent.

Please help. My goal is mid -170s

Hello. I'm going over the core curriculum and JY tells us in order to negate "all" statements like "A -> B," you make it to "A <-some-> /B." However, in the next lesson, he tells us when you negate "conditional" statements like "A -> B," you negate it to "A and /B." My question is how do we differentiate between the two? Isn't an "all" statement the same as a "conditional" statement? If I say "all dogs are friendly," that is surely an "all" statement and diagramed as the conditional statement "dog -> friendly." Thus, I do not see the difference between the two.

hey guys I am doing by-type on role questions(argument part) right now.

I go pretty smoothly with easiest and easier questions.

However I get stuck with medium level. I just really wanna ask how I can improve my accuracy on medium difficulty questions. Also one big concern is that there are not enough medium difficulty questions for me to drill. Then I wonder how I know I improve if there is no enough medium questions for me to drill.

Really appreciated if anyone can give me some tips !

how many practice tests did you guys take before seeing consistent test scores + no crazy fluctuations in score.

I'm taking my final attempt at the LSAT tomorrow and I'm oddly emotional about it. My last admin was in October, it didn't go well, so I was in a really bad slump where I genuinely thought I was dumb, a terrible student, etc.

Eventually I picked myself up and starting drilling here, attending the live classes, asking questions, etc. and things got a little better. I also remembered to rest every now and then, as I had a problem with really overworking myself to the point of burnout.

Believe it or not, resting actually helped a lot, and I enjoyed studying. I loved the classes on here, all the teachers here are amazing, and yeah.

Whatever happens tomorrow, happens, but I'm grateful for all the ppl on here and the wonderful teachers that helped out.

I completed my LSAT today. I feel like I flunked. I dont know. I feel like i didn’t get even 1 question right.

I am so done. I am taking Feb too.

Hi everyone, I took my first LSAT exam literally an hour ago, and I feel as if I did HORRIBLE, like as if I would be lucky to score in the 150s

This is because the proctering center did not tell me they were starting me the moment I arrived at the center (I had arrived 45 minutes before the exam started, planning on going to the bathroom, taking a moment to relax, etc.). Instead, they immediately rushed me into the room, without telling me, and sat me down. I had just finished a yerba, and it hit my bladder 15 questions into my first section....

Long story short, I spent the whole first half trying not to pee my pants, and it completely took me away from an exam I otherwise think I would've done quite well in!! I unfortunately couldn't focus with my bladder hurting so much.

To add onto it, I was sitting next to someone with a cough and a kid who was muttering the whole time... :(

Should I give in to LSAC's fear-mongering and cancel my score? I would hate for outside circumstances to affect how future law schools view me as an applicant.

Thanks!

About to do my first test. Trying to be positive but the last two days of review I feel like I suddenly just forgot everything.

hey guys. just curious here--im wondering if anyone else like to read a chapter of a book etc before they do lsat practice, esp rc? when i was studying for the lsat i found that doing this beforehand helped me warm up when practicing rc. is this the same case for anyone else?

im retaking the lsat tomorrow and i haven't done any intense drilling today, just review of some concepts i struggle with. i read a bit of non fiction etc to help me prepare for dissecting tomorrow's rc passages. im mainly trying to relax today while also getting ready for tomorrow lol

I went to sign into the proctored exam this morning and both of my pieces of technology were not allowing me to use the Prometric app. I went through Prometric and LSAC. I asked to retake the exam for the end of the month.

Has anyone else run into this? How did you handle it?

I just scored a 161 on PT147. As BR suggests, timing and time pressure seem to be the issue. I especially struggle with having an RC exp section because RC drains my confidence (and 2 RCs happen to me more often than not it seems like). I don't really have the option of retesting at a later date because I am applying for this cycle and want to improve my existing applications (already submitted with 162) and would not like to delay until next cycle. Does anyone have any suggestions for between now and February? I'm aiming for at least the high 160s. Thanks!

Hi, just curious, I have a school asking for a Statement of Purpose, which is different from a Personal Statement, right? The wording is different, so I just wanted to be sure they are both two different types of statements. Thanks!

Hey guys, I took my first LSAT yesterday and I feel like I genuinely flunked so bad. I've been scoring consistent 160s in PTs with my highest being 171, but my brain felt soo slow taking the real test and I know I didn't do so good. I worked really hard to manage my anxiety going into the test but I still just felt stressed and slow. I'm taking the LSAT again in Feb and I'm wondering what are some ways I can practice doing the test under stress? Maybe like try and convince myself each practice is the real thing? Have someone there yelling at me stressing me out? Idk but I need to be better otherwise I'm definitely flunking Feb too, let me know if you guys experienced this and if anything helped

If I have a couple of LSATs on file, and I believe the new one I took was a significant dip, is it worth buying Score Preview? Like I have a pretty big trend increase to 160-high, but I think this January test went horribly. I can see myself going down from a 160-high to a 160 flat. Does buying the score preview and canceling it make sense? I only took the test in January because I felt I could do a 3-5 point jump and break into a mid 170s.

Basically laptop died because although it was plugged into the charger I didn’t realize the power outlet I was using was defective(it randomly stopped working).

I have 3 options if my complaint is approved

1)don’t cancel score+preview(I was in section 4 question 10 when it shut down so I would be missing a lot of points, however there is a good chance it was an experimental section. My performance on the other sections was mid, I don’t expect a score higher than 156-158 if it was experimental. Obviously much lower if it wasn’t)

2)Retest on Jan 21. This is probably the worst option because instead of getting my results late Jan I would probably get them mid Feb which would be very late for law schools apps.

3)Pick any available test date. I think this might be the best option. I can pick a later date, have lots of time to improve my score, and apply next cycle.

Thoughts?

The latest date I see for 2026 is June..

Hi everyone! I just started studying in December and planning to take the June LSAT. I started utilizing the study plan 7Sage came up for me, but now I am worried that once I go through the theory of LR and RC that I won't have enough time for PTs and drills. What study plan does everyone use (ex: comprehensive, balanced, etc.) and how do you recommend splitting up your time?

Hi everyone, my timed scores currently are in the low150s and my blind review scores are in the mid160s. I started preparing in the summer of 2025 and gave the October attempt and scored in the low150s. I started studying again in mid-November and plan to give the June LSAT. I keep revisiting fundamentals, have a detailed WAJ. I am eager to move into the 170s and willing to put in the work. I am unsure how to design the best study schedule to target the issues I am facing (listed below). For example: at this stage, how should I split time between timed and untimed practice? I would appreciate any guidance on how to move forward. Thank you so much!

Major Issues:

• Exporting my learnings from previous questions into new ones instead of treating each questions as its own universe;

• Struggling to develop the attitude of a skeptic as well because I am unsure if I have a complete handle on the question;

• Develop a different way of approaching the questions by moving away from my prephrase;

• Struggling with engaging with answer choices and test each against the stim (especially for harder questions).

Im so grateful for 7sage and the way it has prepared me. Excited to see how it goes!!!

I've been studying LSAT since November and I'm still trying to figure out how to manage time during practice tests. Everytime, I take PT or drills, I use up all my time and end with 5 to 6 questions untouched, 2 for drills, and because I'm so stressed with time, my accuracy falls and I get like 60% of the questions I answered right. Should I first focus on accuracy and then practice to solve questions quick or should I do what I do now since I can go over all questions in blind review and work on accuracy? I'd like to hear other people's thought and experience on how you study and practice.

Hey guys,

Does anyone have tips on solving conditional questions without diagramming. I have tried getting faster at it but to no avail. Plus my exam's in a few days :(

Hi everyone! I wanted to get some thoughts from those on the Live plan vs. the Core plan. Have the live classes made a noticeable difference for you compared to the Core plan’s study materials (recordings and explanations)? I’d love to hear any feedback, experiences, or tips you have. Thanks so much in advance!

I think I am asking a dumb question. but anyways,

First time taking the LSAT, I have my exam scheduled for 1/10 at 3pm. My question is, do I login to Lawhub at 3pm sharp so should I login and start the check in process 10-15 min early? I dont know how it works. Because I am assuming it will take at least 15 min for the check in process, so my test will be delayed 15 min and I won't start at 3pm technically????
