Hey guys!
Looking for some advice :) I have been studying for about the past 8 months, and have gone from a diagnostic of 144 (-14 LG, -12 LR, -14 RC) to my most recent pt of 167 (-2 LG, -4 LR, -5 RC). I am shooting for a 170 on this June LSAT, which is 3 weeks away. I'm taking a break from work so that I can just go all in on studying. I've finished the entire 7sage syllabus (which is the main thing that has helped me so far), and am halfway through Reading Comp Hero.
What should I focus on for the next 3 weeks? Any advice would be greatly appreciated:)
for #4, what does being interdependent have to do with being diverse?
Had no clue what disseminate meant. Is there a dictionary for common words on the lsat?
Hey guys!
Since they are getting rid of LG come August 2024, they are completely revamping the logic reasoning questions. They will be much tougher, and some of the questions will have hints of LG in them too. I just took the February 2024 lsat, and much of the Logic reasoning games were way tougher than anything I have ever experienced, in terms of LR. January 2024, and my february 2024 test takers seem to concur with this.
All of that being said, how should we go about studying for these revamped Logic reasoning questions? Does the 7sage V2 already have us covered? Does the V2 already have study materials for this evolved version of LR??
I took the february LSAT today, and was interrupted a dozen times by the proctor. Granted, it was mostly due to me reading the questions aloud. I was also interrupted to fix my camera, and they would not pause the clock while I was made to move the camera.
I have ADHD and anxiety, and this is on file because I received an extra 10 mintue break. My question is whether or not anyone has ever tried to take the backup exam, by filing a test day complaint, and been denied? Do you guys think they will denie me? Once I had been interrupted a few times, it was very hard to regather my train of thought (especially due to my adhd), and I ended up guessing on way more questions than any practice test that I have ever taken!
It's surprising how challenging it can be to find clear answers online regarding how W's on transcripts are treated by the LSAC, huh? Like many, I have multiple W's on my transcript, all labeled as "non-punitive" by my university. Enough to absolutely tank my gpa.
From my research (scouring LSAC blog posts, 7sage blog posts, reddit, etc.) if your university deems a W as non-punitive, LSAC generally doesn't factor it as an F in your GPA calculation. The catch is, you need to clearly communicate this to LSAC. Not all institutions explicitly state which W's are non-punitive, making this process tricky. I came across a case where an applicant had numerous "non-punitive" W's, initially counted as F's by LSAC. It wasn't until they appealed, presenting a letter from their dean clarifying the nature of the W's, that their GPA was adjusted.
As a fellow law school aspirant, this is the collective wisdom I've gleaned from the web. Hope this helps!
@justinsorenson19993, sorry for the late reply! I've done about 7 or 8 practice tests, so not that many. I'm not sure if I'll do another one between now and the June LSAT. I feel like, at this point, I won't gain anything by doing practice tests, aside from a possible false sense of confidence, or lack of confidence lol
