@JacobBaska Thank you so much! As a follow up, do you think that my scores would hurt my chances at a t6 or t14 school? My dream schools are Harvard, NYU, and Columbia and I get the impression that get a 176 like i did typically don’t take 4 tries to get there.

🙃 Confused

Should I submit an LSAT Addendum??

I have gotten mixed advice on this so far so hoping someone with better insight can help guide me here. my goal is a T14 school ideally T6. I took the LSAT 4 times. Twice last year in 2025 (getting a 163 then 159). I had just moved to a new city for an internship, and really wanted to go KJD, and on top of that both tests were entirely self studied. Even despite that my PTs at the time were high 160s and low 170s so I knew i was capable of more. Took a break for a year to finish school, then got a 169 in April 2026. That test was fine but it was also virtual and I had PTd consistently in teh 170s. Took for a last time in August 2026 and got a 176. If it wasn't for that 159 score dip I wouldn't be worried, because then there would be only demonstrable improvement between tests, but with the dip there just wondering if an addendum is needed to address that and if basically just saying that "i didn't study the way I would have wanted to when I was starting out" is a good enough justification.

@lollipoppy Well there was a whole year in between exams so def a lot of changed. I took 2 official LSATs in 2025, scoring a 163 then dipping to a 159. The biggest change I made after that was then doing the full 7sage curriculum. My first two attempts were completely self taught. Although, obviously, I did begin my 7sage journey with a mid to low 160s level understanding of the test. And then something I found to be really effective was practice full timed sections only once I got comfortable enough with the material, and then using quick tricks like logical force to answers. For example if there’s a MBT question and i’m down to 2 choices and one of them contains a some statement whereas the other is an all or most statement, choosing the some statement because of lower logical force.

@spindlynoodles Hey! Yeah ig if you are scoring so well on BR then knowing the material isn’t really your issue. This may not help but you really just have to trust yourself and eliminate answers you know to be wrong. Say you come down to 2 answer choices (which was often the case for me when I was in your position) I would always tell myself that if i could poke holes in one the 2 ACs then i knew which one to eliminate. So i know it sounds obvious but really just trust yourself.

I know a lot of people personally and on this platform that believe jumping up a lot in score is out of reach. I got a 159 in June of 2025 and today I got my August score back and saw a 176. To literally anyone and everyone that needs to hear this, let me serve as proof that you CAN make that jump. There is no barrier that hard work can’t break down. Keep at it and don’t give up on yourself, even for a second. Anyone who wants to follow up with me regarding studying tips or even mental advice for tests feel free. I believe in all of you.

@Shannell_E'llan Basically, what it's saying is that the 52% of people who thought he was good never changed their opinion. Its the same people before and after the ethics violation accusation. That is because, as A points out, pretty much every person who DOES believe he is guilty ALREADY thought he was bad. So the 52% of people who thought he was good before and after were unaffected.

@ChristopherTobin Something I think it's important to note regarding assumptions for D is that even if they were vulnerable, that doesnt mean its possible that they didn't need internal records or anything. Embezzlement is inherently an internal crime and the stim establishes it as a necessary condition. Only B directly weakens by saying someone else got access to them. D says that the corporation was vulnerable to INTERNAL crimes. Hope that helps that's just how I understood it. Another additional thing with these questions where 2 answer choices seem right, I would say just focus on the argument. At the very least, C makes a point about accountants and actuaries, whereas D doesn't at all. Think about how D cannot in anyway lead you to believe that it was more likely to be one or the other in terms of who committed the crime.
