Anyone else absolutely butcher this section? I have been practicing recently at -4 for LR and got -10 on this. Also, there were two questions that stood out to me as so difficult that seemed just straight-up wrong. Like there was not a single correct answer choice.

Like Q25

After watching the explanation, I don't really get why C works. We are supposed to assume that large body = less of a target by predator. But that's not stated in the answer. If anything, you could make the opposite assumption that making the body larger makes them more of a target.

And Q21:

Doesn't really make sense. I guess C is supposed to introduce an alternative expl - that the students did better because they studied hard. That's what is stated in the explanation video. But that requires an additional assumption beyond what is stated in the answer choice. There is nothing suggesting that "choosing" to join an academically competitive team post study implies that those students were more motivated to do well in school. Motive does not equal action.

I recently joined Bailey Luber zoom call for RC Bootcamp and got her Code .IO link. I have been using it but today my computer restarted and I lost the link. Any chance anyone has hers and can send it to me please?

Thank you!!

I get really anxious when I read in the default font, so I always zoom in to an extreme. I use the pinch-to-zoom on Safari, and I was just wondering if this is supported on the LSAT? To clarify, I don't like increasing the font and line spacing, just the viewing window. Would really appreciate your insight, thank you!

Some people have told me not to register until I am consistently PTing at my goal score, but what is considered consistent? I really want to register for April (otherwise I will not be able to sit until August due to immovable scheduling conflicts), but I'm not at my goal score yet and I don't want to waste an attempt.

I feel like waiting until August for my first (and hopefully only) attempt feels so last minute since I want to apply for law school in the 2026-2027 cycle. Am I creating an unnecessary time constraint? Any advice is helpful!

For context - my goal is to get as close to a 180 as possible, but realistically I would be happy with 173+

My last PT was a 168 (BR 174) in jan, and since then I've been scoring -1 to -4 on all practice sections, RC and LR.

Other than in keeping on?

I've been studying using 7sage for years (on and off but more recently, very much on) now. Completed the entire course curriculum (before the Website transfer) and have taken around 3 practice tests. The first two I took were at the end of last year and I got a 153 on both, which were taken a few weeks apart, with blind review scores ranging between 170-177. My most recent practice test, now, yielded a freaking 148(!!!!) and a 165 blind review score.

Between all these tests, I've also done tons of drills and always review the videos for the questions I got wrong, had trouble with, spent too much time on, etc. Same method on the practice tests.

At this point, I just feel like I'm crashing out of a sky I never really got up too high in.

It's bad enough to get a 153 after years of studying and even worse to now drop down somehow to a 148. I also can't really wrap my head around being able to get close to a near perfect score during blind review, which I would think demonstrates some level of comprehension, but getting a timed score that isn't uncommon for someone who has never even looked at lsat study materials to get.

I really need help, advice, etc. Kind of at my wits end here...

***I should mention that yes, timing is an issue for me. I can, on a good session, answer at least 14-17/25-26 questions under LR sections. On the other hand, on RC sections, I'm finding I can really only get to and complete 2/4 passages. In those rare instances I make it to the 3rd passage, I can't finish all the questions for said passage.***

Has anyone else been unable to complete the Argumentative Writing portion?

I tried to connect for 2+ hours today. I have a MacBook Air which meets all the required specs, downloaded the newest OS, updated Chrome as advised, and downloaded the Guardian extension. But when I clicked the test link, it took me to a page to download the Guardian extension again as if it wasn't already there. No matter what I did, I never got past this page.

Numerous calls to tech support were useless, I was advised to do the same few things over and over before they ultimately opened a new tab to connect me to a proctor and rapidly disconnected the chat. Restart computer. Remove and add Guardian extension. Uninstall and reinstall Chrome. Lather, rinse, repeat. The prevailing advice from LSAC, because this is a novel issue, was to "try another computer." Not really a feasible option for me, so I tried going the Apple support route with no success. Then LSAC advised me on the last call this is a "known issue" and to try again in a few days.

At this point I'm beyond frustrated and at a loss. Has anyone else experienced this? If so, how did you fix it?

I took the LSAT this past October and January and obtained a 157 both times. I have already applied to Law schools in Canada, and I am now waiting for responses. Just in case, I am planning to study for the LSAT again in hopes of obtaining a much higher score next November and potentially January as well. this will leave me with nearly a full 11 months to study. I have already studied for about 4-5 months on LSAT Demon.

I am wondering if there is any strategy of specific things I should focus on in order to obtain a high score? How can I best use these next 11 months to obtain the highest score possible?

Hello everyone,

I plan on taking the LSAT in April and I am really trying to get a 174-6. I have been studying for about 3 months but have recently doubled my study time per day considering the exam is in 2 months. My RC seems to be a bit worse than my LR but that depends on the section and is gradually getting better. For the exam I am planning on allocating 3-4 wrong for the RC section and 0-2 wrong for the LR. I tend to score -2 to -4 (-1/-0 on BR) on LR and have only once got a -1. How do I constantly bring this down to a -1 or -0? I have been doing a lot of sections in order to prefect understanding under timed pressure not totally sure if this has helped/will help. Thank!!!!

In this episode, @unknown sits down with Sasha to break down The Game Plan behind his jump from a 151 to a 175 on the LSAT.

Before law school was even on the radar, Sasha worked in basketball management and coaching. Along the way, he picked up habits and mental frameworks that turned out to be a perfect fit for LSAT prep. From film study to practice planning to staying composed under pressure, Sasha explains how lessons from sports translated directly to test day success.

Alex and Sasha talk about how to approach the LSAT with focus, why preparation matters more than motivation, and how thinking like a coach helped Sasha diagnose weaknesses and make steady gains.

If you come from a sports background or just want a more structured, disciplined way to attack the LSAT, this episode is for you.

The LSAT is hard. We’ll help you crush it anyways.

How do Law schools determine or analyze GPA if someone has multiple degrees? Do they look at the combined GPA of the degree put together or each individually?

Also, does having a masters degree help in any way for the application process? To be honest, I do not really deserve the degree... I just did it so I could keep playing college sports, but oh well... I guess I have it

I need to know that I’m not alone.

So I have been studying for months. I really locked in December > January and I took a break from prep tests which really helped me improve I took my first prep test from that month long break last week. After everything went down hill like I was so good at studying and doing better and focusing and now ever since the PT I can’t focus at all and it causes me to do bad. Any advice? Maybe I’m experiencing burnout? Do I need like more sleep less screen time, I read books but it’s been awhile so maybe I should start again to build my stamina?

I was planning on April test date but at this point it’s like maybe June. LSAT is truly one of the most hard and confusing processes.

I am struggling to find a general rule that allows me to identify either by question stem or by answer choice when I can suspect that the correct answer to an NA question will also be a sufficient assumption. An example NA question with a sufficient assumption correct answer is 140.1.22. Does anyone have any general principles or rules?

How does everyone track their LSAT applications? Are their websites or templates that everyone uses?

I got a really high score once on a PT and now every single test is significantly lower- what do I do, how can I make my highest consistent?

When should I take my first full practice exam? During foundations modules or after?? How far out from my LSAT?? PLZZ HELp <33

Hello everyone,

I have completed the foundational portion of the course and have jumped to the LR question types now. I was wondering would you recommend finishing the LR question types first? Or can I practice the questions on the side as well? Along with completing the course.

Thanks

Trying one more time today for this cycle.

Good luck to everyone who is taking the Feb LSAT, we got this.

See you all on the other side!!!

Hi friends! Just took my first official LSAT. I had a major technological issue which really messed up my focus, and I am unsure how I did.

I am worried I might have to take the LSAT again to get the score I really want, but I also do want to take some time to rest after just taking it.

Does anyone have tips on how to maintain testing skills during downtime? My main concern is that I will take too much time off and then be pushed back again on my studies.

Thanks!

I am struggling with my stamina for reading comprehension. I either have to pause after every section or two to take a short brain break, or I do the section but don't comprehend anything and get a bad score.

Any tips for improving this?

Are we able to wear headphones if we are taking the lsat remotely

I have a tough time trying to answer questions that require looking back into the passage. Usually because it takes up a lot of time and sometimes multiple answers seem right. Any tips to get better at these? Currently my RC score is -10.

hi! i just started studying for my LSAT last Saturday / took a diagnostic test w a score of 144 and BR of 151...I was aiming to take the test in June but a bit concerned this isnt enough time to bump my score? I guess Im just not too sure how much time is sufficient to jump at least 15ish pts from my diagnostic. any advice?

Hi everyone!

I'm in week 4 of studying. I'm planning to test in June. I took a diagnostic 2 years ago but have not since then. I know I should (probably planning to do so this weekend). But when should I start religiously doing timed PTs/Timed Sections? Am i starting too late? Should I wait until im done with the LR/RC Theory sections? Any advice is welcome! Thanks!

Heyy, I am struggling with all Parallel/analogy questions does anyone have something that helped them understand how to go about it. Thanks

So I am fairly new to the LSAT studying process. I just recently completed the core curriculum last week and begun my first practice block this week. In it I was assigned my first practice exam. As you can see from the results there is a pretty large gap between my raw timed score and my blind review score.

I knew going into it from the drills and practice sections that I had a pretty good understanding of the material and that early on, timing would be my biggest challenge (I didn’t even get to the last RC passage on the PT 😭). Often times in practice it would cause me to rush my answers after about the midway point. However I definitely did not expect there to be this large of a discrepancy between timed and untimed review.

During the blind review I made sure that I completed it without any support from outside sources (notes & lessons) as we are supposed to. So I know this was completely from knowledge.

But my question is how do I close this large gap? I know people will say to just slow down. But is that all there is to it? How can I go about improving my ability under time pressure the proper way?

Any help/advice from anyone who has gone through something similar would be greatly appreciated!
