Also potentially interested, I am in the beginning of the Core Curriculum as well (though my timeline is a bit shorter, at this time).

Hello, I am also looking to take the LSAT in the first half of 2021. About 36 % through the Core Curriculum, would love to join the GroupMe!

@ my suggestion is also taking into account if you have other life obligations in the way, such as working full time like I do. It makes studying for the LSAT a bit more complicated when you have time constraints, so definitely consider how much time you have to study/take PTs and how much time you are willing to set aside for LSAT studying in the longrun to maximize your score.

It does seem to be a little late in the game to be taking PrepTests if you're taking the October LSAT, but if you are dead set on that test date I would only take max 3 PrepTests before then so you do not burn yourself out before the test. Starting with the oldest of the 3 and working up to newest. Leaving at least 3 days between your final PrepTest and the October LSAT.

Aww thanks everyone for commenting! I got there a bit later than I was hoping on Friday so I wasn't even able to look for anyone! But I still got a lot out of the forum. A few things I found most helpful were getting the chance to speak to a current student at one of the law schools, and testing out the digital LSAT !!

Specifically, I would really love some folks who would love to go over RC strategies and low res summary ideas and such, as this is my weakest section.

Maybe they will give us nametags of some sort and we can write our user IDs from 7sage on them discreetly? haha

Other than my above advice, I have not yet taken the digital test so that is all the advice I can give. Sorry!

hello! On the digital test you can just click on an answer choice letter (B for example) and it will grey out the whole answer choice so it is not fully visible.

I read an article about this last night! A prospective law student preparing for the LSAT who is legally blind filed a lawsuit stating that it was unfair for his appeal not to be approved since he could not properly diagram for the LG section of the LSAT. The decision to research and implement the change of the Analytical Reasoning/LG section of the LSAT should definitely provide increased opportunity and access for legal education and prospective law students in the future.

Is it worth it to write an addendum for a very poor LSAT score from the past?

Focusing on maintaining a minimum 8 hour, steady sleep schedule, decent diet and exercise have helped me maintain my positive mood in general! I believe it would help you too. This too shall pass, my friend :)

Thank you so much for your input! So you think I should take full sections timed first? Or just drill like 10-12 questions, if LR for example? And then take those question sets untimed?

Study Strategy Advice Needed

Hello everyone!

So I have been studying on and off for a bit over a year now. Finally took the plunge and got 7Sage in Oct 2019 (life-changer) but got terribly ill from Nov to Dec (with what I believe was coronavirus, but that is besides the point) and halted my studying during this time. So I feel like I have mainly only been studying since Jan 2020. I work full-time, and now that this pandemic has us all quarantined, I am finding it really difficult to focus on studying with all the commotion in my house. I was going right to either the library or Starbucks everyday after work and that was working for me. Also headed to Starbucks on the weekends typically in the early afternoon, about 3 hours each time (after that my brain gets fried). I was also reading some other discussions on here, and thinking maybe I should try studying in the morning before work.

Another problem I am having is I am only 30% through the CC, still on LR, and I have not studied LG or RC in a whiiile... Do you guys think I should just skip the rest of LR and move to one of the other sections? I just feel weird skipping because I know I will want to return back to the LR question types. What do you think is the best strategy?

Lastly, I was planning on taking the July and August 2020 exams originally, but switched it to be August and Sept when I noticed my studying was slacking since I cannot focus. And now I saw that LSAC removed the Sept LSAT, so I am back to feeling like I should be taking July and Aug. (Aug just in case I do not feel I did well on July.) I really do not want to feel the need to push my second test to Oct 2020 because I know this will delay me starting my applications. I do not plan to start them until after LSAT is done. What do you all think? Any advice you can give is greatly appreciated!

what about a vocational school? the LSAC website says that transcripts include that from classes you took in high school that were for college credit, so that is what I classified vocational school as. I tried requesting these transcripts and have not heard anything back...not sure how to proceed. #help

Confirm action

Are you sure?
