Self-study
I only have up to prep test 57. Is it important that I try newer ones prior to taking the December test? If so, where is the best place to obtain them? Thanks!

Thank you. I guess I will push the test back to December and will start to BR my PT tests from this point forward. Maybe I will do a PT on saturday and BR on sunday.

Well I blind reviewed for the first time today on a prior test I took so I could see where I'm at as far as understanding the material. Timed score on that test was 147 and my BR score was 160. So it seems my biggest issue is the timing.

Thanks everyone. I get the feeling I will have to postpone to December. I have done the course here. My cold diagnostic was a 139. Just awful but I also didn't have any idea how to complete a logic game at that point and I wasn't even close to completing the sections due to timing which is why I received a 139. I have gone up about 8 points so far with this course. It's just not where I want to be obviously. It always comes down to the timing issue for me. I have not been blind reviewing because I don't have a lot of extra time but I guess I need to start doing that from this point forward in order to improve.
I am in need of some advice from fellow LSAT takers and law school applicants. Just a little background about myself. I graduated with a 3.8 GPA with a BA in paralegal studies and have been working as a paralegal for over 5 years now. I love the work and I am very passionate about what I do. For this reason, I have decided to finally make the leap and go to law school. However, I am really having trouble with this LSAT! I have taken about 4 or 5 timed PTs and they all range around 145 to 148. I have a hard time finding the time to study as I work long hours right now and I guess I am just not very good at timed standardized tests.
Why am I having such a difficult time with this test and how can I get better at it? I am currently scheduled to take the test in October but am now wondering if I should put it off again. I would really like to go to law school next fall but I am really becoming worried about this test.

I am halfway through 7Sage and work full time so my time is limited. However, I notice a lot of people on here mentioning the Lsat Trainer so I was thinking of purchasing it but am wondering if I will have the time to complete both the Lsat trainer and 7sage course before the October exam? Is it worth purchasing?

Oh man I did just awful on this! Does anyone think it may be helpful to read the end of the passage first so you know where the passage is going? I haven't tried that yet but am thinking it could be helpful. Anyone try this?

I work full time at a law firm as a paralegal and I try to study 1 hour before going into work and I try to also do it on the weekends. Anyone else have a hard time studying after a full day of work? I feel like I am mentally shot by the end of my work day. Reading everyones comments makes me feel like I should be doing more studying at night though.

I was stuck between A and C on this one and ended up choosing A. So after seeing the correct answer I guess you could say the argument was that there is no evidence of life on other planets, meaning there is no reason to believe there is life on other plants, and therefore scientists will not find it. Meaning A is more of a supporting conclusion of the main conclusion, which is C. Is that a correct way in looking at it? At first I saw A and C as saying the same thing but now I think I understand it better.

So asking for the main point of the argument is the same thing ask asking for the main conclusion of an argument, correct?

I just purchased 7sage this week and now I am a little concerned. Do I have to print out ALL the problem set questions at the end of each section as well as ALL practice tests?? Or else I will lose that material? Even though I just paid for it?
I just want to make sure I am clear so I don't lose any material that I just purchased…
When you take a PT, what is your average timed score and BR score? What score are you looking to get when you take the test? I am in the same boat as you. I was scheduled to take the October LSAT but now that I have started doing the PT tests I have made the decision I am not where I need to be and since I work full time my time is very limited. So I have changed my test date to December.
