hi, guys!

if possible, i'm looking for some advice - thank you so much in advance :) i have taken the LSAT four times and canceled one of my scores last october due to extenuating circumstances.

for context: my fourth score, the nov. 2023 LSAT, is much lower (:/) than my highest score and i'm worried would put me in a disadvantageous position considering that i'm applying this application cycle, which i was planning to do in the next couple of days but hadn't expected this. considering that i already have one score cancellation on my record, do you think that also cancelling my nov. 2023 LSAT score would be harmful to my application?

any and all thoughts are appreciated!!!

I did this question as part of a drill for the PAI section of the core curriculum. After reading the question 5 times I am starting to understand why the correct answer is correct. However, I really have to stretch my mind to have it make sense. I expect I am not seeing it from the correct angle. Can any of you all help me understand?

Thanks!

I got a 152 on the November LSAT so I wanted to cancel it and retake in January, but I just realized that I missed the January deadline so now I dont know If i should still cancel my score and just retake in february, which seems too late in the cycle? Or if i should just take my chances and apply with a 152?

Hey all,

Just wanted to thank 7sage team and give a few words of advice that I hope will help someone out.

First off, the LSAT can't take over your life. Sometimes, you simply just have to stop thinking about the test. If you don't, you'll burn yourself out and perform poorly. I spent May through September cooped up in a small room studying for one too many hours/day and I suffered for it. Started living life a little bit in October and saw score increase of +5 on my PT's and on my actual exam. Of course this is not the only reason my score improved, but it is certainly one of them. Time away from the test is crucial for the learning process. Go for a walk. Play with your pets. Do anything but the LSAT.

For LR: Practice visualising every stimulus you see. This was the game changer for me. Visualising what you read leads to being engaged with the material which leads to an understanding of it. Do untimed practice questions until you are comfortable making a mental image of each stimulus you read. Just a heads up, this takes lots of practice. But if you master it, it is an extremely effective strategy.

For RC: Same advice as LR. Practice untimed passages and visualize every sentence you read. Your mental image of each sentence should allow you to understand it. Once you get good at that, read whole passages and visualize the main points of each paragraph (or at least something notable from the paragraph). This made me a MUCH more engaged test taker. I actually started finding the passages interesting once I started doing this.

For LG: Drill, drill, drill. There is no way around it. If you do logic games enough, you will rarely miss a question. I probably spent around 700 hours drilling logic games. Yes, it sucks but if you do it enough you'll rarely see a game that gives you any trouble. By the end of my prep, I was completing full sections in around 25 minutes and scoring -0/-1. LG really is free points and you have to take advantage of it.

If you have any questions, don't hesitate to reach out.

Can someone please provide a link that facilitates access to the January 2024 Crystal Ball Predictions? Unfortunately, I missed the date.

Are there any examples of how you annotate and highlight passages on the actual online test. Since all the explanation videos I see involve writing directly on the passage, they do not seem that helpful for the real test.

I just took the November lsat and got a 162. My gpa is around a 3.88 but I think it might end up being higher when CAS adds in my scores from other schools. I really wanted to go to Fordham Law but I don't think I'll be able to get in with this score. I know I could do better because I was scoring between 163-169 on practice tests. Should I cancel my current score and take the January test? getting scholarships is really important to me because I am paying for law school all on my own. I am nervous all the money will be gone if I wait that long.

Hey y'all, I got a 155 on the Nov LSAT after getting a 148 on the August LSAT, and I have a GPA of 3.8 from UCLA in your opinion should I retake the exam again in January or do you think I will get into a couple of schools here in California with my stats? I'm super duper over this exam and just wanna be done, and I truly do not care what school I go to so long as it's local I'm okay. what do you think I should do? do I have a chance? or should I try again?

Hi everyone,

I took my November '23 lsat, and the Prometric program didn't work properly. I was logged out 8 times during the test and had to go through the whole check-in process over and over again. The time was stopped, but I am not sure if they counted all my answers. My LSAT score was really low, but I thought I did better because it seemed easier than the ones I had done before. Is there anyone who had an issue during their proctored exam? Also, is it worth doing a score audit or just retaking the exam in January? Thanks in advance.

Thank you SO much!!

I really need to solve this game and having a difficult time so would like the explanation.

Hi all! In need of some advice for canceling or keeping my score for November's test. I scored a 146 and now I am thinking of taking April's test instead of January to see significant improvement (which means I will probably not apply this cycle like I intended). Two questions (1) is it worth it to cancel - I believe I was not as prepared as I should have been coming in to the test and (2) Is it best to give myself more time to prepare for a better score or should I try again for January in hopes of scoring better and applying this cycle (168+)?

any and all thoughts are appreciated!!!

I hoping to get my first two games down to a relatively speedy pace so I have time on the second two. What tags/difficulty should I be drilling that are representative of the first two games?

Re-posting this in a more organized manner so everything is in one place. Here is some context.

Last attempt for this cycle.

150 -> 155 -> 159.

I need a 161 at least to be at the median for my dream school. 2 more points.

Of course most of us feel less pressure / whole different dynamic practice test vs. real thing, but I was scoring 163 - 167 for the last 10 tests I took prior to the October LSAT. Not sure if my brain freezes or what. My average was 164 so I was expecting a 160 at least.

Please help, how can I get these two extra points? What would you do in my shoes?I guess Im asking if i retake all the ones i took and start from scratch 7sage? or focus more on review? obviously with the performance anxiety of it being real doesnt help me but instead is a deterrent, i need this to feel as "fake" and relaxed and possible. what do i do study method wise? Im willing to put in the work next month but dont know what to do study method wise.

Any help or insight would be much appreciated. thank you in advance

I am having some self doubt and would love to hear thoughts!

I have been studying for the LSAT since late September now, and have improved my score from a 152 -> 162 so far. I am hoping that if I keep up my pace I can get to a 168, but truly a 162 isn't bad either.

I am having doubt about if I timed taking the LSAT incorrectly. It's my first go-round, with little guidance on applications and I'm not applying to a t-15 school. Is January LSAT going to be too late to send in my scores with my apps? Should I wait to apply until after my LSAT? It will be the first I have taken.

I really want to apply this cycle, I am just now facing that doubt that I'm sure many do as the time creeps closer and you're doing something that no one near you has done.

Any advice? Tips? Relatability?

Thank you
