Finally test day @2:30pm today! Just wanna take the time to say good luck to everyone who has/will be taking the LSAT. This platform and community has been so encouraging, and a great resource. For anyone just starting, use this discussion board to vent! Realizing you’re not alone makes all the difference. Good luck everyone, thanks for all the support, and God bless!
Hey everyone! Does anyone have any idea how long after applying to a school we can expect to hear back?
Thank you everyone, reading all these is definitely helping me feel better. I really appreciate everyone who is taking the time to respond. Wish you all the best!
Hey everyone, I had a diagnostic of 140, and my 3 practice exams since then have been 152, 149, and today a 144. I wanted to take a practice test as my exam is Jan 10th, and I am feeling so defeated. Does anyone have any tips? I am so frustrated at my steady decline.
a 143 as a diagnostic is NOT BAD. It will improve, don't waste your time taking PTs for the next few months, just lock in on foundations and youll see bump in your scores in no time
Hey everyone! Does anyone know how competitive applying for part-time or night classes is compared to regular admissions?
Hi everyone, I keep scoring 4/5 questions better on my BR compared to my first take on practice sections. Anyone have any tips that worked for them if they struggled with the same issue? I am taking the Jan 10th LSAT so any advice is really appreciated!
For E, I took "a historians willingness to accord respectful considerations to rival interpretations" too close to that of being a judge and hearing out both sides. Anyone else slip up with this?
First time ever getting 100% on my first attempt. Had to just throw it out there as a small moral victory! Taking the January LSAT so i need any boost I can get, lol.
I will definitely be skipping these questions come test day lol
Is this lesson really kicking anyone else
@bcn I also am cramming with work and gonna give it a shot, we got this just gotta hold our selves accountable and try your best to be consistent. Consistency is what I am struggling most with but we got this!
This is the first section I have actually felt confident on. Needed this confidence boost as I cram for the Jan LSAT lol
Anyone else really struggle with getting the questions right on time? I will occasionally get them right but I rarely am within the time frame.
When he is explaining choice E, would anyone be able to let me know the lesson where he discusses descriptive vs prescriptive words
@generallypreparedforthings I think it only got 3 stars bc (like myself) many people probably picked the answer that reiterated the conclusion. Pretty much a shot in the dark that worked out lol
Does anyone else just do the questions, if they get it right they move on, if they get it wrong they watch the video? That's been my method to avoid wasting time, am I missing out on too much?
"I think the answer is fairly obvious" ~ (59% of people who answer this question get it correct)
I feel like they delve too deep to the point it makes me overthink. This was a pretty straight forward question that doesn't need this many steps
Feel like I went from thinking this was a no brainer to now being confused/overthinking minor details of simple sentences...
Im not sure if anyone else has taken a diagnostic, but does anyone else feel these practice questions are too simple? I feel like the LSAT itself is much more tricky. Maybe just bc this is the foundations sections?
Just a helpful tip, if you guys see words/phrases like "therefore", "thus", "because of this", the conclusion more often than not comes after these words and phrases. Those signify "author opinion," which is more often than not what the "goal" or "conclusion" is, at least in these instances and practice problems I have interacted with. Hope this helps!
