Just wait for the next cycle, schools admit on a rolling basis and seats will be filled by then.

We are in similar circumstances. My mindset is that sitting for June's exam will be good preparation for August's, and that (assuming I do better) showing gradual improvement in my score can only reflect positively?

Would definitely be interested in hearing what others have to say.

yes definitley what I was thinking might be good to gauge where I really am at, but I know schools look at past scores and that extra $200 makes me nervous haha

Hello, I quit my job in October and have been studying full time since for the June LSAT, however I was not at all consistent at first and am barely finishing up the core curriculum soon and do not feel like I will be ready for June so I am thinking of taking the August LSAT instead. However, applications begin a month after which leaves little time to prepare my personal statement and letters of rec from professors. Is it likely to hurt my chances if I don't apply within the month applications open this cycle? My undergrad GPA is not good so I am really relying on my LSAT score to get into schools (aiming for 168+, first pt at 155).

Would anyone recommend taking the June LSAT anyways just so I can see where I am at and know how to prepare for August?

I quit my job recently to focus on studying for few months since i still live at home and dont need to pay rent, but if I study more than 5 hours a day I lose focus and get fatigued. Only study Mon-Fri so I dont overload myself and Taking 20-30 minute breaks every hour or two is also essential, especially with topics I dont like, such as logical reasoning for me.

just started and first pt was 155, tryna make the jump to 170+, what did you think was the biggest factor for such a dramatic jump?

^ for the comment above, no its not too late, you get your score back within 3 months and schools start admitting sometime in the fall usually, you will be fine. However, this is something you should be researching yourself and already be aware of, law school is a huge financial and personal commitment, it would be wise to familiarize yourself with the process before studying so you can plan it out and know what you are getting into.

Awesome, I got the exact same diagnostic score on 7Sage with no prep. Would you recommend integrating Powerscore after the 7Sage core curriculum? A friend gave me the 2018 Powerscore bibles to help but im not sure if mixing info from 2 different prep sources at the same time is going to confuse me for 7sage. I feel like some of the sections in the curriculum do become redundant, what did you feel was the best way to motivate yourself for so long?

-taken from a comment on a previous questions in case anyone missed it.

The key to solving this question is to eliminate C, D, and E quickly.

According to Powerscore LR Bible, the correct answers of parallel reasoning must consist of:

1. The same type of reasoning as the stimulus: such as conditional, causal, or all the flawed methods (note: there are at least 14 major flawed methods of reasoning, please refer to Powerscore).

2. The same type of property in premises and conclusion: absolutes, possibility, relativity, positivity, and negativity.

The stimulus uses "most" so you can quickly eliminate answer choices that dont use the same phrasing

I am taking the August LSAT tomorrow, but im pting around 160 - 161 consistently, no where near where I want to be (169+). I am taking the October one since I know I wont get my needed score for my schools. I took up a job and life stuff happened and I fell behind on studying for a month or so (Wont work until October so I can study full time for retake).

Does anyone have advice/tips or routines that worked for them in that amount of time? My averages for each section are -7 LR, -8 LG, -5 RC. I know LG is the easiest to improve quickest, but I really feel like I hit a wall in timed sections and want to plan out a routine, and do NOT want to wait another cycle to apply. Any advice and tips are appreciated, thanks!

I think humanities passages are actually worse than science ones, because they can just word vomit the most pretentious snobby vocabulary like this

dont let it discourage you theres a lot of factors that could go wrong the day of, get a tutor/outside help, change your study habits, and focus on what you felt you struggled with the most

Confirm action

Are you sure?
