It eventually updated, over a week after I submitted. It took the longest of all the apps, but I get why now- thanks for the help, guys!

What were they thinking about administering a test with crazy hard LG while they are still figuring out the tablet situation? Wtf was with those games?

If it’s not where you want to be, then cancel. Some AdComms are picky about multiple/low scores. It’s dumb.

This happened at at least one other site in Tampa, as far as I know. Absolute nuttery.

I’m hearing that tests were never administered because the tablets weren’t connecting to the LSAC network properly. This happened in Tampa at at least two test sites. Students waiting around until 3pm and then getting sent away.

So not only do we have to pay $200 to take a test full of made up bullshit because they want to gate keep so damn bad, they can’t even employ best practices when it comes to enterprising a new network. As a cyber professional, this both infuriates and tickles me. Way to go, LSAC! Your arrogance couldn’t save you this time.

You won’t be able to use the free retake for sept. So keep that in mind. The earliest you can use the free retake is October. I’m in a similar boat, and if I need to cancel and retake in October, the score gains I will make will surpass the 2ish months I’ll have to wait when applying in the new cycle this year. Aiming for 170, which is above all the Medians at my intended schools. good luck!

I’ve done the Fox books, 7Sage, Khan Academy and Kim’s Trainer. I always recommend that people cut their teeth on Khan first, since it’s free. It saw a really good increase in scores with Khan, even after I’d been a year into my prep. It was surprising. The logic games and analytics on 7Sage are the biggest sellers of the program. I didn’t care for the micro approach to the LR sections, until I began to advance my own knowledge of logic. Don’t use 7Sage first. The Trainer was...ok. It’s about the wavetops. And I really liked the Fox books for LR and LG. You don’t even need an account to see the games on 7Sage, though.

Are you testing without taking any sort of course or studying before hand?

I would say for NA: Aunt Barbara was not convicted of a crime that carries minimum jail time as a sentence.

Strengthen would be something like: All people who get tattoos commit robbery and get caught, and robbery is a crime punishable by a minimum of six months in jail.

Fun exercise! I’m going to do this for some of my own questions now.

FYI bro, being religious is not a soft.

@tponzilius864 Life isn't fair and the wealthy/well off will always find a way to game the system. Welcome to America and being an adult. Don't let someone else's shitty game mess up your groove. They can't game their way into a good personal statement or having diversity.

I’m going to assume you’re a depressant of a military member who’s got a VA rating and that’s how you rate CalVet. I’d take the CA school if it’s someplace like UC Berkeley or UCLA, which are easily transferable to other locations. UC Davis or somewhere similar isn’t going to help you as much as a local DC school.

They’re also known as a huge money pit that basically turns all your paperwork into PDF’s and charges you for the “privilege”, and meddles with your GPA to adapt it to a 4.3 scale for no good reason.

Me personally? You touch me or my property and you’re going to be pulling back a stump. No score is worth someone putting their hands on me.

It doesn’t look like it because the registration deadline for September is before the score release for July. LSAC anticipated this being somewhat easy for us and put the cabash on it pretty quickly.

It depends how much money you’re ready to fork over to CAS for the “privilege” of having them put your transcripts into a spreadsheet and mess with your GPA.

Wow it’s like you were describing me, nine months ago. I went through the same thing. Getting past the “pick two” dilemma requires you to be VERY careful attention to language modifiers like some, any, all, etc, and you also need to make sure you’re picking the answer that best describes the subject of the question. Finally, make sure you’re not mistaking sufficiency for necessity, and the other way around, because many ac’s will give an answer choice that WOULD be correct, but the sufficiency and necessity are incorrectly flip flopped.

I took my first test without a strong grasp of LG and I would recommend that you plan to take this test and just cancel. It won’t be where you want it to be. Test day isn’t about making a last-chance Hail Mary happen- it’s about putting down on paper your previously proven abilities, whatever they are.

I actually started using the Khan Academy program that LSAC offers to increase a few points as well, and I really like it. You need to break out of your current methods somehow and shake things up to get over your plateau. I thought that it’s be cheesy or incompletely before i started it, but it’s pretty comprehensive and I like the way it personalizes the drills and gives analytics.

I just listened to a webinar by a Harvard admissions rep who said that cancels don’t really matter unless you start adding them up and they get in to 3-4 range, and that people are expecting lots of cancels from the July test. Take the July- it’s the best opportunity for a risk-free test you’ll ever get.

what other curriculum did you use? i thought abotu taking testmaster live course that begins in april, then I thought maybe i should really focus on every aspect of the 7sage CC and improve as much as I can, i even reached out to some of the tutors here. For example I'm awesome at the games, in LR, I get all my MP questions so I would skip those and focus on RC SA NA etc etc.. But i am not agaisnt trying other things. i'll try anything once lol

I've read the Trainer by Kim and I'm in the Fox series of books now. I don't know how or why, but reading through the Fox LR book has made the entire LR section completely click for me. I feel like a savant. I can read an argument and immediately see the hole, and based on the question stem know exactly what to do with it. I like 7Sage for the video curriculum for LG, but I really did not click with the LR portion of it. I also dabbled in Blueprint, but hands down I love Fox the most so far. I love his snarky style and the way he describes the questions.

I would not. The CA bar is notoriously difficult, and most local schools (I'm in SoCal) will gear their bar classes toward the exam. You're at a definite disadvantage out of the gate by not going to school here if you want to license here. There's also the fact that you may be locked out of the market- we will all have interned and done clinics here and have jobs lined up to close to being lined up for us by the time we are 3L, and you're going to be coming in cold into a VERY competitive market where tons of first year lawyers already have a leg up on networking and connections. I would advise that in a finicky market like this, you go to a local school.

This may seem like blasphemy to some, but if the CC isn't working for you, please branch out to other well-reviewed methods. I put all my eggs in the 7Sage basket, it wasn't clicking for me but I LOVED and still love the community, and I found my stride with another curriculum. Don't tread water or try to skate through peanut butter. I'm also a mommy, so best of luck with your new bundle!! (3(/p)
