91+ is just the may flex with the extra unscored section, so you have those explanations to help at least
Yeah but sadly they have different sections like rc is different as well as the lg and I wanted to know the explanations for those especially for the rc since the rc in this test is more difficult :neutral:
Oh wow didnt know they changed those two, I thought it was just an exact copy

Inference questions are always based on specific sentences within the passage. Throughout any passage there are anywhere from 1 to 4 sentences that are clearly "author's POV". They are often subtle. For example, consider this made up sentence,
"Mary Maybeck was solely responsible for advancing this worker's movement, thereby making her one of the most innovative lawyers of all time."
The author doesn't say "I think Mary Maybeck was great!" But when you get an author's POV question, you should refer back to sentences like this.
A sample question could be:
The author's feelings about Mary Maybeck are:
a) reverent
b) scornful
c) neutral
d) amused
e) critical
The answer is (a), because they explicitly call her "one of the most innovative lawyers of all time."
Thank you! Going to try specifically highlighting POV sentences to see if it improves my accuracy. Usually I mess up when it asks for the authors POV in a specific scenario or situation
Definitely do research, applying ED in most cases will mean having to pay full tuition since schools know you cant apply to other schools while in a ED agreement.
Does anyone happen to have any tips for these types of questions? Currently its what I repeatedly get wrong in Reading Comp, and leads me to getting 2-3 wrong per section. Any advice that may be helpful specifically for this RC question stem would be really helpful, thanks!
If you're signed up for an LSAT then yea your application is marked as incomplete and not reviewed, you can try asking them to review your app with the current lsat score, though theres the chance they only review it once at that point and decline to reconsider admission after your next score
Mostly everyone will just use the same ones, the opinions of those who wrote the letter will likely not change at all in just a few months. You only need new ones if you waited multiple years to apply again
If you send it before the LSAT score comes in, most schools will wait until the score comes in to the review the app and not look at it until then so you dont gain anything
The only thing I can think of is they used that as some form of exercise to familiarize with the language in RC or just passage structures
I would say only if you are sure you will get a higher score based on PT performance
I hope this helps, but they dont need to resend the letter of rec, it is stored by LSAC for five years, so you can just simply reselect the ones you already have previously submitted.
November scores are usually released before thanksgiving, also amount of times you've taken the LSAT wont affect anything beyond there being a 5 total limit per 5 years
Still good to disclose usually, schools care way less than the actual BAR association, which will look at all previous records included expunged incidents etc. This happened so long ago and was so minor, that it pretty much does not affect you at all in any circumstance as long as you just quickly take accountability.
yes, as long as the school doesnt have a deadline before january
A lot of admissions wont review your app if it shows you have a pending LSAT to take, so you would be reviewed when the other score comes in and not early when you submitted your app. Only worth it if you know for sure you can increase the score

Wait, we are allowed to both 1) eat and 2) use the bathroom? For whatever reason, I thought it was limited to water in clear container only.
Could someone provide list to the actual allowed actions/items, as I must have read the wrong list the first time around.
Thanks in advance
well they wont see what you do off camera lol, you just have to redo the room scan whenever you come back

Does anyone know if we were slotted to take it today, if there is any way we could take tomorrow or Tuesdays?
If you hadn’t started try rescheduling through ProctorU!!
@ said:
@ I don’t think so. I was scheduled to take it today and they did not give me an option of taking it anytime this week. The earliest date I was offered was October 21st
If you hadn’t started your exam, try rescheduling on ProctorU instead
One big advice I can give for situations in which you are maybe stuck within two choices, run the negation of the answer choice and see if that opposite would destroy the argument, if so then that is the necessary assumption, because if the opposite was true then the argument collapses.
You pretty much have to rely on the conditionals, specifically how they say that if 1 and 3 are different, then 2 and 4 must be T, or how if 3 and 4 are T then P1. If you need help with a specific question I can try to help specifically
From what I always hear and personal experience, that doesnt really matter, I took two LSATs with it showing as high ram as well. Either way it doesnt hurt to make sure you have every other program thats running closed
Law schools will only use your LSAC gpa and not your school gpa for any decisions, so if its a lower gpa you can write an addendum to just explain why and not something that will repeat itself
Id say something helpful is to just accept what the author or stim is telling you is moral or not moral as true. If the author says something random like not eating ice cream is morally incorrect, then dont overthink it and try to just use their point of view despite any concepts you have in your head
I think there is definitely a noticeable shift between tests in the 70's to test in the 80's, specifically the abstract language in LR being seen more in the 80's and tougher RC in the 80's. Id recommend focusing more on those
The point of an addendum isnt to be your personal statement or a story, if you have a compelling reason then incorporate it into your personal statement. An addendum is a brief explanation, the longer you make it the more it sounds like just an excuse and you not owning up to it, or the more that admissions is going to let it linger. Be precise and to the point.
To you its a big deal, but to people that see thousands of applications every year, they have already heard it all and dont need a big explanation.
