Hi, I'm taking the Jan 2021 LSAT and it will be my first one. Has anyone received the email about scheduling/setting up ProctorU?

Thank you so much! I'm going to give this a read. I am also taking the exam on Tuesday and have MAJOR test anxiety, so honestly I'll probably start crying during the exam lol. But it's so reassuring to hear that someone else deals with the same thing. Good luck on Tuesday. You hold more power than you know:)

I agree with you ^. it doesn't seem like people talk about the writing section as much, maybe because it's unscored. so finding in depth info about how to prep has been a struggle.

I'm in the same boat. I contacted the admissions offices of all the schools I intend on applying to. They all stated something similar: that they would much rather a strong, competitive application that is submitted later in the cycle as opposed to a rushed one that is submitted earlier. Also, that they will still give scholarships to those applying later in the priority cycle, so long as the application is submitted before the priority deadline.
I was super worried about this, so it was very encouraging and helpful to hear directly from the admissions offices. I recommend that you email your schools' admissions as well, to hear those words directly from them. But honestly, based on what I have heard from my schools and various tutors, do not be too concerned about the timeliness of the Jan LSAT. Have your personal statement, diversity statement, and applications ready to go. As soon as you receive your score, you can just submit everything. I would personally much rather submit apps a bit "late" with a higher LSAT score, and therefore a higher chance of being accepted, than to submit earlier with a lower LSAT (and therefore lower chance of being accepted).
Good luck! You are really going to be okay. Study hard. We're all in this together. You're gonna kill the Jan LSAT! :)

Yes, you can. But it is recommended to take it as soon as possible, as it needs time to process and be approved so that your score can be released. You score cannot be released to you if your writing section has not been approved. So take it as soon as you can! I took mine a couple of days before my test date and everything went fine:)
I would suggest still taking it in January and seeing how it goes/having the experience of the set-up for flex. And then taking it again in February or April if you're still not happy with your score!
