Apologies if this has been posted before but:

Should we be finding a PT to take before we start any of the lessons as a base? Haven't started any LSAT prep yet and just purchased my package.

For anyone who had issues on their exam where they lost time, have you heard back from LSAC yet about it?

Not sure if this is possible, but is there any way to utilize PTs on here with the LSAT Flex metrics / format? Thank you

So I am scheduled to finish the CC this Friday. Haven't taken a full PT since the diagnostic but, should this be enough time with PTs etc to be prepared for the Nov exam/?

Thank you!

Apologies if this has been answered before but preparing LG drills and I noticed there have not been any spatial games in an exam since ~PT 35.

Has this been noted by LSAC / is it considered "dead?" Just trying to hone in on games before the test next week and want to make sure I am using my time wisely.

Thanks so much!

So I completely had an anxiety attack during my first section of the recent LSAT, and didn't get to the entire last game. I usually go -1/-0, so I know I won't be getting the score I was hoping for -- and want to give myself a bit of a break in studying.

I signed up for the March test as it's the soonest one available, and it's not until the end of that month.

Would waiting until the start of March to dive back in be too long of a gap, or would that be ample time to pick up where I left off? Was a little too all-consumed by the test, so need to take some time off, but I don't want to lose the progress I made.

Thank you

If you come across a MBT, for example, or if you have game boards that are completely filled in, do you automatically move on once you see your answer, or do you still check each AC to be sure?

I have a few times thought I made all the possible GBs, picked the first answer, then saw if I had kept going through the AC's that I would've noticed two possible correct choices, and realized an error.

If we are going for -0, should we trust the game boards and go on for speed, and hope an error hasn't been made, or do you still spend time checking each one?

Thanks so much!!

I apologize to add to the frantic posts that begin as it nears the exam.

But I am taking my first actual test on the 25th, and I am consistently getting -19 with it pretty evenly spread on every PT I've taken since I finished the CC.

I am drilling every LG every day and hoping to get it down to -1/0 before the exam, but even with slight improvements on each test in LG, I go down in LR/RC.

Obviously cannot predict the future, but, does anyone have any tips 2 weeks out? Or am I better off relaxing(/accepting) at this point given the short amount of time?

Thank you in advance.

Hello!

As the January test comes around, I'm starting to get a bit anxious with my RC score. What used to be my strongest section is now my weakest, and I can't tell where I am going wrong.

Looking at the Analytics tab, Application Questions (Purpose of passage & "Consistent Principal) are where I am struggling with the most. Does anyone have any advice tackling this area, or is it just continuing to read & practice generally. Would really appreciate any insight people have gained on this section

Thank you in advance

Got my results back today and underperformed where I was PT’ing

So thinking of making a last minute virtual study group for those done with the CC and taking the March exam.

Let me know if interested!!

I'm trying to begin the LG foolproofing, and I've seen a bunch of mentions about the LG Bundle. I know it has been taken down, but I have access to the PT's so was thinking of making a custom set to replicate the questions.

However, are there any specific questions / PT's that come later that you all think would be well-worth adding to the first 35 PTs to foolproof? Or should this suffice for now.

Thanks so much!

Thank you to JY and the entire 7sage community.

It's been a tough six months personally, so I am so grateful I got to be where I am now. I didn't know anyone personally in my life at law school or going through the admissions process to turn to, so the advice on here was super helpful -- especially searching back for years-old threads.

Thank you to @Sami for the free tutoring sessions she has offered and for her overall test day advice. I truly think practicing some questions from each section before the exam (as simple as it sounds) was a game changer for me.

The crazy person in me is thinking of trying one more test in August, even though my goal was to just break 170, as money is a huge factor and I don't want to put myself in a position where I am hurt financially by not trying to go up a bit. So if anyone has any input on that (not to be ungrateful for my score), please let me know!

But for now, I am going to try as much as I can to be proud of myself for once and celebrate. Huge congrats to all my fellow test-takers out there who got their score today. There's so much hurting right now in general, so I hope you all give yourself the space to relax and recharge when need be.

I'm not sure how helpful this post has been, but all I can say is, just focus on yourself throughout the entire process. For my first exam, all I did was study for the LSAT. I watched videos before bed, at the gym, and that if I wasn't spending time preparing, that I was just wasting time. But on test day, the pressure I built up was just unhealthy and I couldn't even finish 2 sections. So this time around, I tried to still be as "normal" and calm as possible, put it all in perspective and it made all the difference.

Thank you all for these resources, and for JY committing to making this as affordable as possible for us all and having our best interests in mind always.

I just wanted to see if there was any way to access CC for the video lessons? I'm limited in when I can hear the videos, so was curious if there was a way to do this

Thanks!

I saw the post regarding the cancellation after the score is submitted option - but upon looking at the comments, many people mentioned how a cancellation is also looked negatively upon.

As someone who just began my entire studying last week, would you recommend still taking the July exam - or is this too soon that the ability it take an exam and cancel after knowing the score (with just a month of studying) is outweighed by continuing to wait until ample studying is completed before a first test is taken for schools to see.

Thank you!!

I have completed my LR curriculum and while I feel fairly more prepared and knowledgeable, I for sure have not "mastered" it yet.

Would you all recommend going through this major part of the CC again, or should I continue with the curriculum and dive into LG (and then LR) and then begin the mastering once all is complete?

Thanks!

Obviously no incorrect answers is ideal, but I just took my first PT and I was curious about understanding how to see my potential given each section breakdown.

For example, I've heard logic games are something that can be quickly improved upon - but does anyone have insight into LR and RC. For example, is a cold ~75% in RC a good base - or is there typically not much improvement in that section given reading comprehension is something learned for years

In other words, are there any markers for a base in certain scores indicating a range people should (and should not) be aiming for? I guess I just want to be realistic in my expectations of what I should be aiming for, but I don't know what one should expect in terms of improving section by section (as opposed to people generally saying they've improved ~8-10 points overall).

Wanted to see if anyone had advice on tackling the "newer" RC. I used to average -3/4 for the section, but since I have been taking the more modern exams, I have been getting 7-9 wrong.

With ~2 weeks left till the exam, anyone have any advice they would recommend for adjusting to the harder RC?

Thank you!

Hello! I'm in the home stretch of studying and looking on how I perform on RC sections, the only questions I continue to get wrong are the Main Point q's and analogy questions. Does anyone have any general tips for these two, specifically?

For example on the analogy questions, I often get down to 2 AC's but there is some nuance I miss that leads me to narrow it down but often choose the wrong one. Same for the MP questions.

Sorry if this is vague or often-answered, just been seeing a pattern and I can't seem to shake it
