Does anyone have any idea how many words the writing sample should be?

What helped me move from upper 150s to upper 160s was doing preptests and then using the analytics tool to focus on the types of questions I get wrong the most. (And BR!!)
Hey everyone,
So I am taking the test in one week for the first time. I am happy with my LG and LR scores but I cannot seem to imrpove on RC. I thought by now, my score would have improved but it hasnt. It is very inconsistent. Any advise on how to improve or if it is even possible to improve in a week?
I'm not sure how much you can improve in one week because LSAT tests your skills, which takes time to develop. One suggestion I have is make sure you dont burn yourself out by taking a test everyday. LSAT is a marathon and you dont wanna be exhausted on test day. With that being said, I'm taking the LSAT next week and I've been using the problem sets to focus on the types of questions I tend to get wrong.
Hi guys, so I will be applying October and have decided that I am done with the LSAT. My dream law school has always been BU Law. With that being said, would consider going to a higher ranked school such as USC, UT, UCLA, etc.
LSAT: 167
GPA: 3.54 (Was in the hospital senior year and my gpa tanked)
Would BU be a reach school or target school. If my GPA is below 25% but LSAT is over 50% where would that put a school?
Also where does this put me with scholarships?
@ I tend to get NA questions wrongs, but besides that they are all over the place
Hey y'all. So I'm currently scoring an average of -4 on each LR section. I feel like my wrong answers are all over the place (some are incorrect for misreading while others for not understanding stimulus or letting an answer choice trick me). I have been dedicated to studying and I have not seen improvement. Idk what to do. Ive been doing blind review and going over all the incorrect questions. ANY Suggestions are appreciated.
I'm sorry you are feeling down. I felt the same way after I took my the test in November and scored lower than my average. For LG, I feel it mostly comes down to practice. LR can be challenging but doable. For LR, it is extremely important to understand the core of each question type. I suggest that instead of doing timed sections, really focus on blind review and incorrect questions. I found the most help when I would do blind review and explain my thought process to someone. The more I talked about each question, the better I got. It might also help to keep a journal and write down every question you got wrong and why. I went from -12 to -4 by talking about it and loads of practice.
Additionally, I also found it more effective to divide up my time. For a month straight, I mostly only did LG until I perfected it. Currently, Im mostly just focusing on LR because thats where I want improvement. Feel free to DM me if you have any specific questions you wanna talk about. :)
Hi guys!
I'm in the process of applying and came across a school that wants an explanation for the variance in the LSAT score. My LSAT scores are 161 -> 167. I wasnt too sure what the "correct" explanation is or what they are looking for here. Thoughts?
#help I am a little confused. If they confirmed that the data is in fact correct then that would not be correct answer choice because we have to assume all the premises are correct. But because it says "if", it is not a premise. Can someone confirm if this is correct?
