So I decided no to take the July LSAT even though the accommodation was appealing (still turns out we cant register for the September test with the freebie) So my question is, now that I dont have to rush.. I am currently halfway through the LG CC, should I full proof during the CC or after I finish the LG section of the CC?
I was reading the LSAT FAQ on LSAC, and I noticed this statement: "The online, remotely proctored LSAT-Flex tests do not count toward this total as they were administered as an emergency response to the 2020 COVID-19 pandemic." I am a bit unclear on what this means. So if we take 2 LSAT Flex tests, they will not be counted towards the limit of 7 tests in a lifetime?
Here is the link:
I went from averaging like 6-7 to 10+ in my 3 or 4 recent PTs, I mean does it get harder in the 80s or what is going on ? I am taking the test in a week so I guess it's panic time
I am scoring in the range of 155-159 and my goal is low 160s (160,161,162,163,164) with a month and change left for the test, what is the best approach to take to get those extra points?
@ said:
I would email student services and ask them.
I just did that!
I have 2 questions guys.
a) So i will take the July test just because of the accommodation they are providing. In 2 days or so I will finish the LG CC and I was wondering until my test date, should I do the original bundle as much as I can (1-36)? or should I mix up my foolproofing and do games from later PTs like (50-60s).
b) Also since I have little time, do you guys think I should jump to timed PTs after I finish CC or do timed sections... I know i am not ready yet but the July test is once in a lifetime shot i think. I would really appreciate it if you guys could give me more advice than the questions that I asked because I feel lost and dont know what to do.
P.S I will take the September test most likely so my main prepping goal is for that test.
Going on a limb here but it may be because of the changes to the courses offered by 7Sage-
https://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/22617/upcoming-changes-to-7sage-courses
But I already had a subscription so I was grandfathered in basically.
@ said:
Just go into Resources > problem sets. Filter for LG and select all the games in that range, then create a custom problem set.
I only have access starting from PT 36, any ideas to why??
I just started studying again and I was wondering if there’s a way we can do LG 1-35 with the digital format? If not, the only way is to go through the PTs and just do the games?
So I just finished the games CC (i did all the problem sets) I read the discussions on 7sage but didn’t see a clear cut answer. Now that I will start the bundle (1-35) should I do them by game types or just go through the Pt games?
P.S Im not even close at being good at LG

@ There is one question you have to ask yourself in terms of taking a break. Are you doing the studying half-heartedly, if yes then take a break. If not then continue studying. Thats how I gauge my own decision on wether or not to take a break. I also found that I do much better after taking a break and coming back to it. When you keep forcing yourself to do it when you aren't excited or fully committed, you will start to dread the LSAT and that is a major downward spiral. Like many have said before me, the LSAT is a marathon not a sprint. You can't cram for it, and your mind continues to process what you've learned even when you aren't studying. Give you brain some breathing room. If you're asking this question on the forum that means that you should definitely take a break.
So as I said I stopped studying for it to focus on my university studies. But I also want to go back home for 3 weeks after I come back to the LSAT. So I think the majority is saying to take the 3 week break in between studying
Thanks!
So I studied on and off for couple of months then decided to stop to focus on my university studies. I will graduate in May so I will start studying then. But I wanna go on a vacation for 3 weeks on the end of June. So i plan to study for 2 months from Maya-June then take a break and come back and study till October and take the test. Should I do this?
I would be totally up to join this group, we can definitely help each other out!
1- Is it still a good idea to do the classic LG bundle (1-35) or should I mix some games from PT 50-60 into the bundle?
2- Also another question, while doing the LG bundle I will do the RC CC as well. After I am done with the RC but still in the process of doing the LG bundle, should I incorporate timed sections of LR and RC or just wait and do a full timed PT?
So I decided to stop studying for the LSAT on July 2019 and focus on my school. Now I am going to restart. I was not doing that good actually so I want to redo the whole CC. Any advice on how to do this and in general any tips for restarting ?
@ how often do I have to revisit the CC? Since I’ve done it once..
I scored 141 and my BR was 156. My target is 160-163.
My scores were the following:
LR: - 12
LG: -18 😒
LR: -15
RC: -13
After BR
LR: -9
lG: -10
LR: -12
RC: -7
I’m taking the September test. Do I even have a shot? It was the first time i ever did LSAT on a tablet and i was very nervous dor some reason.....
For full disclosure, i was in and still am in the process of FPing games and it’s been a while since I reviewed LR and basically only did RC for a week. Can i get to my target score in 2 months? And if can you guys give me some advice.
The only silver lining that I see here is my BR score is close to my target score.
Help me folks😎
I bought the tablet and the stylus a week ago. I imagine they will use the Surface stylus. And you are right instead of touching the screen with your fingers you use the stylus. But I think the use of the stylus will be limited (ie we wont be able to write texts on the tablet, we will have scratch papers for that)
Well I'm depressed now..... Thank LSAC
I already registered for October. But since this won’t count to the yearly limit and we can cancel our score, should I just try it? It can help me with experiencing the Flex first hand and i might even get a decent score. What do you guys think?
I had this game too. I had 12 mintues to do it and I THINK I DID IT. But everyone is kinda scaring me now, maybe I didnt do it right....
I just finished the November exam and whatever the result is, I have to talk about Albert. I was struggling with LR and I was honestly lost. Then I found my man Albert! The dude knows the test period! He opened my eyes and really helped me understand arguments. He is super approachable and figures out your weak spots. I had maybe 6-7 sessions or more and I gotta tell you folks I IMPROVED A LOT. I work better with 1v1 instructions and Albert is the ideal guy for this. He really cares about his students and I highly recommend him.
How can I access this? If i upgrade it to the 10$ package, will I be able to see the info?
@ did you fist master LG before jumping to PTs ? Or is it ok to master it while taking full PTs?
@ i will be taking the test on September im still Doing the LG bundle and almost done with the CC. I’m thinking i should take a PT just to know where I’m at. So I guess I’ll start late 5s early 60s. Do like 3 60s and move on to the 70s maybe?
Also from now until September i plan to study 8 hours a day
@
Is there a specific amount I should do? I’m gonna take the test in September. So you think I should pass the 40s 50s then?
will start the RC section soon. I really appreciate it if you guys can give me advice on how to carry on from here. Once I finish the LG section I will start fullproofing the bundle while going over the RC CC. I will watch the webinar on what to do after I finish but I could use some strategies. (When to take timed sections?) ( when and how many times to take full PTs) So basically for my situation which im sure many of you have been through whats the best way to go?

A question like this was posted before but it is kinda dated. So basically should I first do PT 36 then do like 40 then do most of my PT from 50-70 and leave couple of 80s before 2 weeks or something from my exam date?
I have not yet taken a digital PT but i have a question. After we're finished with the PT we have the option to blind review right? So after the blind review, how can I add the new answers after my Blind Review into the Analytics and see the score difference?
I just wanna clarify something. So i will start the LG section soon.. do you guys recommend i start fool proofing games during the CC or afterwards? and i do have access to PTs 1-35 so i can get the LG bundle.. can you guys tell me when and for what reason should I do the bundle? is that where i start fool proofing? I would really appreciate it if someone can clear this up for me.
FYI i will take the July test so maybe i should go with a different strategy?
THANKS IN ADVANCE! :)
@ thank you so much for taking the time to help me. I really appreciate it
I’m pretty sure there are my fellow night owls who can’t go to sleep early. When do you guys wake up to start studying. I can’t sleep early enough to wake up around 8 a.m. But I feel like I’m losing time not waking up early. Any thoughts?
if i do timed tests rather than sections, what the difference? cz after I finish the CC, i want to start doing timed PTs. And doesn't analytics work the same if you take timed sections or timed tests? for both cases it finds your weaknesses in each question type right?
I would love if you can tell me if most people do it your way or the other way.. So like you said i'll save the locked prob sets and after I do FULL timed PTs i can use analytics to find out my weaknesses for all of the question types and i can go on from there right?? @
Also, when you say put them in the analytics, doesnt mean that I will waste PTs by doing timed sets, cz analytics is designed to put your answers from FULL tests right?
This happened to me a lot so I have to ask for some advice. I start doing a PT (especially I am talking about an LG section) where I kinda freeze at a certain game which I know is something I can handle. I stop the section and restart again and the second time it goes flawlessly. How can I fix this? This especially happens during an LG. I don't look for an explanation or anything I just gather myself and it goes great afterwards.
Same here!
I took the test and now it’s time for the writing section. How does it work? Do I have to schedule a specific date? Or can I start whenever I want?
Except for the last LG, i think LG went good. But I have a weird feeling about LR, I dont think I did well. Mixed feelings about RC, no idea how it went
Can we take timed sections and only BR that specific section?
Im currently doing the LG bundle and im at PT8, right now most of the games are taking more than the target time and i dont get all the answers right for the most of them.. either i miss a rule, wrong gameboard and so on. Im kinda discouraged, will it eventually click.
PS: I am full proofing using Pacifico's method and my 2nd 3rd tries are way way better.
@ said:
I think it might depend on when your test date is, and if you have time to start with 1-35. If you are pressed for time I have seen people advocate for doing newer ones.
I’m aiming for the October test.
Since the October test is gonna be Flex, are you guys taking PTs with 3 sections of 4?
So i have the premium pack now, but i will take the test on September which will be digital. So i want to upgrade to ultimate which has up to PT 71. However, is ultimate+ (which has PT 80+) worth it since it has the latest PTs? or there isn't much difference between ultimate and ultimate+?
Is doing the bundle 1-35 still a good idea in order to master games? Because people are saying now the games are different from the older games. Once I finish the CC on games how should I full proof? Should I do 1-35? Or for example 15-49?
How should I plan my LG fool proof if I am aiming for the October test? Last year I studied for 2 months and stopped. I am redoing the CC again and I just started with the Games section in the CC. After I FP the games that are in the lessons what should my next step be? Should I go for the 1-35 bundle for example. And how many games should I do a day and so on? I would appreciate some advice!!

@ my diagnostic was 149 and my goal is 160-165 and I have never taken the test bedore.
I think I will register because there might not be any available seats when i decide to register for it later.. so the soon i register the better.
@ I was thinking about getting the Microsoft tablet. So you ran into some problems with it? if you did then i might not get it.
