Yes but it seems to be working right now. What do you bet this happens 2 weeks before every LSAT date hahaha

I identify with this. In some of my darker prep days, I emailed Dillon in a panic and may have casually tried to blackmail him with a promise to write a good review. I sent it and regret instantly washed over me, sent another email saying omgjklol, and he was super chill and graciously didn't mention my attempted manipulation. I will sing 7Sage praise for the rest of my days, and if my score comes back too low, this is the only place I'd want to return to study. Thanks Dillon!

Any other first time LSAT takers just hoping and praying they're not taking the December test??!!!

Um. Yes. That'll be me.

I told myself (as I'm sure countless others have) that I'm just going with this one score. I felt good about my performance immediately after I finished the LSAT but that damn doubt seems to grow a little every day!

Same on all accounts. I have no intention of taking it again, but I kept all my books because at the same time I'm like...... did I actually get the score though?

In all seriousness though, sometimes I think about people who say they don't need to pay for 7Sage because their videos "are on youtube" and I just lauuuuugh and lauuuuuugh because my suite of Kaplan and Powerscore books are basically the light and basic introductions to the first 5 minutes of the 7Sage curriculum. If I have any success with this test it is thanks to the brilliant minds behind this ridiculously affordable and underappreciated program.

Hahaha "Alex Divine". I didn't realize other people weren't doing that after every study session?

I blacked out? I had 3 LR. Don't remember many specifics but I voted that it was like other LSATS and that I was well prepared. Some people I tested with already registered for December, I did not feel that way. I felt good. I did feel the logic games were easy - I balked when a girl in my room said she didn't know what 7sage was. "Say what now? How are you here?" Reading comp was on par, there were some funky LR questions but generally speaking it felt pretty standard issue. I tested at Lewis & Clark in Portland,OR and everything went smoothly. I came out of the site and my husband said I was one of the few who didn't look unhinged/suicidal - so....bonus.

Thanks everyone for the helpful advice! @ may have called it with the "perfect game board" comment, I ended up diving into a game and only got -1, despite my nearly empty game board. I would say I overthink the inferences, and trick myself into thinking I got it all down. I'm feeling a little "worst case" though because I am scheduled to take the September test, and don't own a printer, so what has been working for others I may just not have the time/resources for. I've just started not writing on my games, and using a clean sheet of paper to draw the boards and answer the questions, so I'm never re-doing a game that's already been marked up. Whatever the case, I will persevere, and appreciate your help so much!

Coming in this a little late but can I pleaaaaaase get in on this too? I sat September, but now it's June or bust! Please???

This has happened on both of the PT's I have taken so far, scoring almost twice as bad in the first than in the second section consistently.

I just did a timed LR section, and it was supposed to be a fun and light refresher because LR is my best category. I thought, gee, let's take a break from LG and prance in the meadows of LR for a bit. -13 (with BR as well) and questioning my life choices later, I'm reminded that the LSAT is designed to prey on our weaknesses. These do not have to be a particular section or question type. They can be: lack of preparedness, taking a section for granted, not knowing what you don't know, and the stresses of preparing for and taking the exam in the first place. I'm going to try and incorporate some stress-relieving habits as well as continue to practice all the sections as if they require my full attention to try and prevent falling into the classic traps set by the creators of the test. Best of luck!

(there was a pressure window-washing thing at my center, but the proctors were super quick in going out to ask them to stop).

We're you testing at Willamette U?? If not, that's two testing centers that had power washing situations ??

@ Definitely don't feel bad about waiting a year! Just wanted to make sure you knew though, that any college level courses you take after obtaining a bachelor's degree will not count towards your law school GPA.

What if I got another Bachelor's degree? Lol, I know, that sounds crazy. But I went to an online university that doesn't have a GPA scale, and it isn't making up for my 15-year-old running start years.

I got a decent score, but 9 points away from my goal. I've decided to keep studying but for the June test, and I'm going to take some college credits to improve my GPA. It sucks that this pushes my start date to 2019, but I think scholarship money and playing it smart and slow will be better in the long run. Anyone else go through this? Pushing back is so devastating on the one hand, but feels right on the other. Ugh.

Thanks @

And yes @-1! We're a rare breed here! If you want a study buddy let me know!

Thank you everyone for the insight. Money obviously is a consideration, but I hear what y'all are saying: $1500 for a class or one-on-one tutoring. Should I get started now while I still have time or wait until closer to June, say in February, to start tutoring. Nothing in life has prepared me for LSAT prep. Thanks again for the help!
