Hi! My name is Robert and I am a 23 year old from New York. I work full time at my district attorney's office with hopes of taking the LSAT in November or December 2023. I work 8 hours 5 days a week and I study 1-2 hours after work, as well as studying on the weekends.

I was curious if anyone else was in similar situations? Do you work as well and do you study before or after work? I am trying to stay disciplined and study everyday. If anyone has any tips or advice feel free to share, thank you.

I'm really thrown by this one. My thought process: a country with a stable economy is less likely to experience inflation or deflation. That is the assumption the author relies on. I thought (A) best reflected that, but the answer choice is (C), which I am struggling to understand. Why is the production of goods or services (which inflation/deflation depends on according to the author) specifically apart of the assumption?

PLEASE HELP

Does anyone know how/if we can do prep tests that simulate the Prometric interface? Are the current practice tests in Lawhub only reflecting the ProctorU interface? How are others who are taking the August 2023 LSAT simulating the interface?

Here is what it currently says on LSAC's website: "To familiarize yourself with the content and interface of the LSAT, we recommend using the free Official LSAT PrepTests® that are available through your LSAC LawHub account. LawHub also includes a series of tutorial videos that can help you get better acquainted with the test’s format and features."

Color Coding Passages

When working through an RC passage, do you place an emphasis on the color of the highlighter you use when you're highlighting certain pieces of information? For example, do you always highlight the author's opinion, purpose of passage, opposing views, ect in different colors so you can tell them apart quicker? One of my biggest weaknesses in RC is spending a large amount of time going back and re-reading the passage to find certain information needed to answer a question. I think things would be faster if I came up with a color system where I could quickly go "okay, I'm looking for author's purpose. I highlighted that in pink. Here it is." Anyone do this? Which parts to you think is the most important to highlight?

(I haven't gotten to the RC modules yet, so my bad if this is a topic that is already discussed.)

NA or SA

This question doesn't seem like it would be an NA question, it seems more of a SA question due the stem. Is this correct to assume?

Hello! By the end of this week, I am going to have completed the core curriculum for LR, LG, and RC (wooohoo!). BUT, now I am struggling on planning what I should do after this.

I am thinking of attempting to do 1-2 PT a week and then dedicating the rest of the week to reviewing my errors. Does this sound like a good plan? Should I do the practice test timed from the beginning? Instead of doing full PT should I do a section at a time, review it, and then do the next section?

I am planning on taking September and November LSAT.

Thank you in advance for all of your help!

booking test dates and times for the August LSAT opened on July 6th at 5pm (EST) and when it first went online there was a problem with booking online tests so I believe this made a lot of people book in person even if there preference was online. Due to this, since the beginning I was unable to book my test in person and it has said there are no test centers in all of Ontario Canada I called the help line but they have basically told me their unable to do anything about it. Should I wait and see if a spot opens up or just resign myself to doing it online? Im really worried about doing an online exam because I'm worried the proctoring system will flag me fo simply stretching my neck or looking away from my screen accidentally. Any advice would be helpful!

It really seems like the answer should be (D), can someone explain to me how (B) could possibly be read as consistent with the biologist's claim. It is the exact opposite of what they are claiming????

Hello,

I took the June 2023 test following two months of extensive prep, and I will be taking the test a second time in October. My plan initially is to not do the core curriculum all over again and just focus on timed practice, full PT's, drilling and just going back to the core curriculum as needed for the topics I find myself struggling with the most.

I have a full time job and need to optimize my prep as much as possible.

For context, the last 8 PT's prior to the June test I consistently scored in the lower 160's, but I ended up scoring 158 on the actual test. I am targeting 165+ on the October test. Also, I am using 7Sage for the first time.

Any thoughts on this?

Any tips

Hello

I keep getting -7~ -9 in LSAT and when I go back for BR, I am able to get the right answer. What should I do to avoid this? Should I just keep drilling? I have been doing timed and untimed drills. I want to detect what the real issue is but I really don't get why
