This is irrelevant to the disscusion of experimental vs real sections. I was wondering if anyone has or ever had experience with distracting proctors? I have taken the LSAT twice in a different state where my proctors were respectful of test takers. However, today I noticed the proctors not only were loudly whispering during the test, but they also would continuously go in and out of the door. I'm very disappointed with the lack of respect.

I just finished a rough draft of my personal statement. Curious if anyone would be willing to look it over and give me some critique. Thank you!
I'm unfortunately taking the LSAT coming up this Saturday, but I feel that I'm not entirely ready or maybe just discouraged. My score has fluctuated from a 155-162 with getting a nearly perfect score on the logic games. The fluctuation is mainly due to my inconsistent LR score. Even if I receive the lowest of that range, I'm nervous it won't be enough to get into the school I'm looking at, which is FIU. My gpa from college was a 3.49 with majors in Neurobiology and Neuropsychology. I've been out of school for two years, but unfortunately I didn't gain any law experience. However, I was a bartender and bar manager for 5 years at the same job that my GM wrote a very strong LOR. I also have another strong LOR from when I was a TA in undergrad. I'm in need of words of encouragement that there is some hope to get into FIU. I don't want to feel hopeless before going into the test this Saturday.
My move will be happening the last week of August, but I have to find a job and furniture within the first week of September. I believe that I can spend 2-3 weeks going through the remaining practice tests that I have left. I have reached my goal, sometimes even surpassing it so I believe that I can potentially reach around that score. When I take practice tests I surprisingly have minimal anxiety. Maybe the anxiety is coming up because the test date is inching closer. I considered taking it in December, but I really want to get it over with. I already put off 2 years from my last test because of personal issues and working through the 7sage curriculum. I just want this anxiety to go away come test day.
I took the test 2 years ago, but unfortunately didn't score the best to my ability. Even though I scored low, I still had confidence going into the exam. After buying 7sage, my score has increased 8-10 points. It has been consistent the past couple of months, which leads me to believe that I'm ready for September. However, I'm having severe anxiety the close I get towards the test date. Granted, I'm currently moving to a new state, which is adding on a lot of stress because I believe it will interfere with my studying. I still think I'm ready, but I have a fear that I will blank out the day of the test. Anyone else feel this way? Anyone know how to relieve this stress and anxiety?
@ I've been studying since may and most likely will take the test in June. I've only used the 7sage prep course. Is there other material out there that can help me boost my LR score?

I was wondering if anyone could go over my resume before I send out my applications. I had issues putting everything together mainly because I don't have any law experience. I worked as a bartender and server for years to pay off debt as well as saving up for law school. I tried my best to list functions and responsibilities of my jobs that could relate to the characteristics needed to become a lawyer.
I took my first LSAT 2 years ago in June and then again over a year ago in October. I got in the low 150s both times but I didn't put in enough studying that I should have. I've been working a full time bartending job so studying has been hard. I took almost two years off because I ran into some personal issues with the man I was living with. I've been studying full time whenever I'm not working using the ultimate 7sage package. My score has definitely improved. I'm hoping to use my 3rd try in June, but I was wondering since it has been almost two years, will I technically have another try after those two years are up? I'm hoping not to take it again, but I'm also curious if I can use more attempts how bad does that look with law school applications?
On most of my prep tests I've been getting nearly perfect LG scores, over average RC, but I continuously do pretty bad on LR. I usually get -10 to -12 and it's breaking down my confidence considering how well I do on the other sections. How can I improve on LR? I'm trying to go back over the sections I do worse on (SA and flaw), but it's not really helping.
Please let us know what LSAC says. I'm also in the same situation. I simply uploaded a picture that has a white background, but has a small white edge on both sides due to the upload from my phone. I just made a huge move from PA to FL so I didn't have time to fix it. I'm freaking out because this move is stressful enough let alone this photo requirement that might prevent me from taking the test.
Sounds good.
