Does the time show up at the top corner of the testing browser, just like in lawhub? Or would you need to use a wristwatch to track how much time has passed?

I'm expecting it to be online but I'm hoping that by the time October comes around, most of the issues that people have had with the LSAT Flex are resolved...

gotta remember to be weary of those answer choices that have strong language!! looking back, AC D saying that the argument presumes that air traffic control tapes do NOT provide accurate info should have tipped me off that it was not the right answer. The argument definitely doesn't phrase things in a way that discredits air traffic control tapes as a whole.

oooooooooh wowwwww this question is so much easier once you draw a diagram

JY...had be believing for a second that D was actually right LOL... Note to self, make sure to consider the rest of the passage as well, not just the shiny new evidence that they introduce that seems like it directly contradicts hypo 3.

I'm also in this range and trying to consistently score 170+!

For people that are also struggling with this: how're you planning on improving during this last ~month before the October flex? I've been doing 3 tests per week ever other day (have done 15 so far)/BR on the other days and I feel like I'm plateauing.. Would love to hear what your approaches are!

Does anyone know when we'll be able to register for a specific time/day for the October flex? In the email I believe they said the registration would be available 2 weeks before the first test date, but I'm not sure what day I should keep an eye out for.

@ are we supposed to create our own proctoru account? I thought lsac was going to email our account info and sign up instructions tomorrow at 9AM?

Writing this down in case someone else made an error like me!! I totally skimmed through this question and thought that the Joseph's conclusion was that Fermat's theorem is false. PERIOD.

But when I read it over again, I realized that he was just referring to Fermat's initial claim back in the 1600s. So based on that, Laura telling us that someone was able to prove the theorem in the PRESENT DAY doesn't tell us anything about whether or not Fermat was lying back when he discovered the theorem! For all we know, the theorem could actually be true, but he just never proved it at the time and pretended like he did (aka he lied or was mistaken).

With that in mind, here's how I approached each answer choice:

A: No contradictory statements in Laura's conclusion! She's just saying that since Fermat's theorem IS provable, Joseph's claim is wrong.

B: No mention of character here! Pretty quick to eliminate

C: The thing that is being mistaken is the fact that Fermat's theorem IS PROVABLE. The theorem being proved doesn't necessarily ensure that Fermat was not lying or mistaken.

D: The definition of "provable" is not the big flaw here. Sure, they could have defined it, but that wouldn't change much.

E: Again, there's really no need for that distinction in this argument.

Not sure if this makes sense, but if anyone has a better way of describing how they went through each AC, I'd love to hear it!

#help Oof, this question was tough. I initially picked B but ended up switching my answer to D because I felt like B was directly going against the conclusion of the argument (that we should consider the blemished past of a discipline when assessing its scientific value)...Looking back now, B does seem like the only AC that makes sense but I'm still a bit confused. I guess if the author did what is described in AC B, they would improve the argument the most and make it stronger?

If anyone has a better explanation of how they chose AC B, I'd love to hear it! Thank you!

@ @ It sucks that it's happening to the three of us but knowing that other people are having similar struggles is pretty comforting...you're right, @ , positivity is probably the best bet. I was also reading online that a lot of people perform worse when they get stuck in the mindset of worrying about whether or not they're going to get the score they want on a PT. So I definitely am going to try to take that pressure off of myself—all the work we've done is more reflective of our score than these more recent PTs!!

I was in the same position before my LSAT in October! My practice tests during the two week leading up to my exam were well below my average and I was really freaked out by the drop. Looking back now, I was definitely burnt out and I took a few days off to just breathe and do non-LSAT related things (not even reviewing or doing practice sections, even though I really wanted to). I came back stronger than before! Highly recommend taking a break, especially since the test is soon. You don't want to be worn out on test day.

Same boat!! I was originally going to do a practice test today and thursday but after some thinking I decided to just re-do PT 89 tomorrow (since I've already taken it before) and hopefully get a confidence boost from that!

Other than that, I plan on watching some explanation videos on questions I missed during BR for previous tests and then maybe doing a timed section here and there just to stay sharp. Going to take Thursday and Friday almost completely off so that I'm not as burnt out!

@ I'm signed up for the October 3 one and my registration didn't say online for a while. Eventually they'll send you an email to sign up for your day/time slot! Or so I've been told. I think the email is supposed to come 2 weeks before the "first test date" (so for me that would be October 3). When it comes, you can go onto ProctorU and sign up for a slot.
