For this question, C is the correct answer. I got it right, but I only read answer choices A, B, and C before feeling like C was the right answer.

I took 57 seconds to answer the question which is only 5 seconds under target. Am I supposed to be able to eliminate all possible answer choices before moving onto the next question? I feel like that's impossible to do with a 35 minute time limit.

Hi everyone,

I’m currently a Project Manager at a software company, working ~50 hours/week. I’m not very fulfilled and don’t feel passionate about the work, which is part of why I started studying for the LSAT.

I’ll hit one year at my company in October 2026, but I’ve been struggling to find the time and energy to study. I think I could reach around a 165 by August, and I’d like to apply this upcoming cycle.

Delaying to the 2027–2028 cycle isn’t ideal for me. I’m also concerned about maintaining strong relationships for letters of recommendation—I have them now, but that could change over time.

While I think my work experience adds value to my application, leaving before a full year might raise concerns about commitment.

I’d really appreciate advice on what to do:

• Quit my job and focus on LSAT prep (is ~7 months of experience okay if my score improves?)

• Stay in my job and apply with a lower score

• Wait for the 2027–2028 cycle (and potentially find a less demanding job—open to suggestions on roles that are helpful for law school applications)

I’m not set on a specific area of law yet. I majored in Neuroscience and English, and I enjoy reading, writing, and analytical work. My current role also involves some contract-related work.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

Hi everyone, I tried answering questions in reverse order, but it lowered my score. I thought starting with the hardest questions (while I’m freshest and have the most time) would help. Is this a common strategy, or is it better to go in order (first -> last)?

Hi - first time posting on 7S!

Self-studying the LSAT and was wondering if people always map logic for Logical Reasoning questions. I'm not sure if it's a waste of time, but is it worth the seconds to write down a quick logic map (like the one for this answer's explanation)? I was able to answer this question in my head (and not write down anything). Just wanted to know what's best practice!
