I am in the same boat as you and I will be taking both tests! I think using September as a gauge will be helpful.

I also didn't include them! I was still a student at my home university while I was abroad and my coursework appears on that transcript. Both of my study abroad programs were at "centers" sponsored through my home university not other schools, so while they are on my transcript and resume, I left them out of the institutions attended. Considering calling the offices now, but I think it should be okay.

Not a July test taker and I also received an email confirmation!

Hi everyone, I too missed the deadline. I haven't taken the LSAT yet at all and was hoping to line up September and November before applying. With that out of the question, should I submit apps in November and then wait for the scores to maybe retest in January? If I apply in November and ultimately test again in January, will it be too late in the cycle to be considered? Thanks guys, I am feeling stressed about missing that date.

Two LG, two LR, 1 RC. Heard the mining LG real? That’s a bummer, I really liked the experimental section.

Simple and concise. Thanks so much!

Sounds great.

Yeah I will if you're still looking for someone!

Thanks for the advice everyone!

there is no reason for you to take the September LSAT if you won't have time to take a single PT beforehand. you may as well take that day to just take a PT. also, you might not even be done with the curriculum by then. I took longer than the recommended time and that was with listening to explanation vids at like 2x speed. Do not skip do not skip do not skip! You are spending your time wisely by watching every single video. Unless your diagnostic was in the 160s, you do not understand the LSAT at all and you absolutely should take your time going through the CC even if it seems easy. I skipped a lot my first go at the curriculum and it got me nowhere (I had to redo the CC a year later). Just bc something feels easy to you once, does not mean that a month later when you encounter a similar question it will still feel easy to you. If something is easy, great, take your time to master it and understand the nuances and why it was easy for you. If it's a strengthen, figure out how to weaken. Figure out all the assumptions. Notate all of the referential phrasing. Often times, a question might seem easy, but you get it right for the wrong reasons. As in, you might have just misread the stim/stem., and just stumbled upon the right answer bc it's an easy question and the wrong answers were just obviously wrong. You can still get a question right by POE or luck and completely misunderstand the question. If you just skip or quickly go through it, you might trip up the next time you encounter a similar question. The point of the easy questions is for practice. You wouldn't skip past a stretching warm up before going for a run, just bc it's "easy."

With that being said, what is your goal score and what was your diagnostic? Bc you could get/stay in the 150s and not really implement proper study strategies.

My diagnostic test was a 163. I am hoping to get a 165-168! After I posted this I ended up spending two full days on one concept (4 hour lesson) to really cement it, so I see where you are coming from. Financing the test isn't a problem for me which is why I initially registered for both. Given that I am studying full time through the November test, I figured it couldn't hurt to see what a real test will feel like in advance. I suspect I will come out from it with a better understanding of what I should focus on before November. I had planned on taking 5 PTs before the September exam. Do you think it would be beneficial to increase that number?

Again, I do not expect to take the September test and reach my goal. That's why I am also registered for the November test.

I'm sort of in the same situation as you, although I'm almost done with the CC except for LG which I'm finishing this week. I'm planning to skip the rest of RC (I went through a couple of them), and see where that takes me since RC takes a lot of time to complete (even though we both only have Premium). I plan to study a lot this whole month, which is hard, since I also work full-time, but I really want to take September since I'll be back in school in September, and it will be even harder to study then. I didn't skip any of the lesson videos, but I did skip some problem sets towards the end. Right now, I'm doing a PT a day + BR Saturdays and Sundays. I'm taking timed sections Wednesdays; one during lunch at work, and the rest when I get home. Then, I'm drilling LR or RC, and LG from different PTs during the other days.

To be honest, I wish I focused more on my problem area (LG) first. I can share my schedule with you, if you'd like. Good luck to us!

I would love to see your schedule! It's good to know someone else is trying for September without having more than 3-4 months prep.

Three LRs. Wishing I had the double RC instead! Anyone know which LR was experimental?

September- 155

November- 168

Phew. Now about those applications...

Changed this from C to A during BR (groan).
