Does anyone else have the issue of no slots showing up? I've gone through every hour in the rang, and no options show up.

Ahhh I'm so sorry about that.... I sent an email to LSAT (just to let them know the slots weren't there even when I signed in right at noon ET) so maybe you could do that if you haven't already done so?.. It looks like there's an issue for multiple international test takers, so they HAVE to open up more slots for you.. I'm sorry !
Just wanted to get this out there for international test takers who couldn't see any slots on ProctorU -- it worked for me!!
FYI The slots show up if you change your time zone to US-Eastern!!!!! And es I'm a repeat test taker!
You may already be aware of this, but LSAC now offers a Score Preview option for all test takers (not just first-time test takers). So you could cancel your 3rd score if it's lower than 172, although you may still worry about admissions officers assuming that you canceled your 3rd score because you scored lower than 172. But at least they wouldn't know whether you canceled it because it was a 171 or a lower score in the 160s.

I signed into ProctorU right on the dot at noon ET on Sept 29 to sign up (as soon as we got that email), but NONE of the slots were available.
I'm in the queue to chat with someone from ProctorU, but I was wondering if this is just a technical error on my side or if others were having the same problem...
#help For #25, am I reading too much into it if "a higher PROPORTION" in C also makes it incorrect as opposed to B which says "a higher PORTION"?
Hi, I'm interested!
Isn't A also wrong because "at least one year" is not the same as "more than a year"? There could be someone who worked for exactly one year and not more than one year.

I think C is also incorrect because it could be possible for sea creatures to wreak havoc in a new habitat even though they weren't deposited by oceangoing ships.
NOT survive after having been deposited there by oceangoing ships --> rarely or never wreak havoc in a new habitat
The contrapositive is:
wreak havoc sometimes (=more frequently than "rarely") --> survive after having been dposited there by oceangoing ships
But it's possible for sea creatures that arrived in a new habitat just by swimming there on their own, due to abnormal ocean currents, etc. (and NOT because they survived after being deposited there by oceangoing ships) to wreak ecological havoc.
The stimulus is only concerned with addressing the problem of sea creatures getting into tanks and wreaking havoc in new habitats, not with solving the problem of sea creatures wreaking havoc in new habitats IN GENERAL.
I'm interested! I'm averaging at 174 for the last 4 PTs and scored 170 on my first real test.
@.1728 Thank you for confirming!
I think 22 B is an incorrect answer because it's incomplete, not necessarily because the part "that there are relationships into which an entity may enter that do not alter the entity's identity" is totally wrong. That part is referring to one of the author's criticism of the theory of internal relations (on which organicism is based) in Paragraph 3: "it is possible for the entity to enter into a relationship yet remain essentially unchanged"(lines 30~33). So I guess it's incorrect because it's only one of the problems with the theory of internal relations. And it's an attack on the theory of IR rather than a direct attack on organicism.
22 E is also incomplete because in the last paragraph, the author points out that the organicists "never advanced any argument to show that laws and initial conditions of complex systems cannot be discovered" (lines 53-55).
Please let me know if others disagree!
Hi everyone, I got this question right, but I wanted to make sure I diagrammed it correctly.
Premise: little psych discomfort in admitting flaw in casual conversation --> trivial
(since you experience little psych discomfort when admitting a flaw ONLY IF you consider that flaw to be trivial)
Conclusion: admit flaw in casual conversation --> trivial
Correct answer (missing "bridge"): admit flaw in casual conversation --> little psych discomfort in admitting flaw in casual conversation
I was confused b/c on another forum, they diagrammed the stimulus as a biconditional: trivial (--) little psych discomfort
and I could not see how the wording of the stimulus results in a biconditional.
Thanks in advance!

Hi! You might have already listened to it, but I found this podcast super helpful. There are episodes about the personal statement in both seasons.

Just saw this but thank you! It worked after about 15 minutes of refreshing
@ Wow, thank you so much for all of your tips!!! I'll keep all of this in mind and hope for the best. I've been refreshing on the page for a while, but like you said it doesn't seem likely that a better time will open up.. But I'm happy for you that were able to change to an 8AM spot.
I wish the best for you as well!! 🍀
@ Thanks so much for your comment! I will keep in mind to get plenty of sleep two nights before and try not to stress out about not being able to fall asleep the night before (although I hope I'll be able to get quality sleep..) And I'll definitely try the warm up questions too. Your words are so reassuring and I really appreciate it!
@ I'm a morning person and never studied for it in the evening, but I think you're right, the 2AM might have been a better option.. Thanks for your comment!
@ Thank you, I think I'll have to keep taking PTs until the day before to see if I'll withdraw. :') I did log in as soon as I got the sign-in email from LSAC, but I guess other people got there before me.. I appreciate your comment!
Hi everyone,
I'm an international candidate, and the only reasonable time I could sign up for was 5:30am local time.
Early morning hours between 2am and 5:30am were the only options I had left right after receiving the sign-in email from LSAC at around noon on May 26 eastern time (I'm a first-time test taker). I sent an email to LSAC to ask if I could schedule for an evening time, but I'm not confident that they will let me reschedule. Candidates in my country have been complaining about this time zone issue since 2020, and LSAC still isn't providing more time slot options for international candidates.
Are there other international candidates who had to take the test very early in the morning, and do you have any tips? Right now I'm performing at about 15 points below my practice test scores because I can't even finish the questions on time. (I normally finish all of the questions and have time left to review.)
I've been practicing waking up at 3:30am, have 2 hours to wake up my brain, and take a practice test at 5:30am, but it hasn't been very successful. So I would appreciate any and all tips you could share! Thanks in advance.
Hi @ , I'm so sorry I just saw your comment. I got 9:40PM and 9:50PM EST options ... It might be that the earlier options were already gone by the time you changed the time zone :( I'm sorry I couldn't help!
Yes this whole thing is so inconvenient... I hope they open up more slots for you and best of luck!!
