Im trying to figure out where to go from here. I’ve taken 4 PTs 50, 51, 60, 61 And I got a 166, 163, 165, and a 159 respectively. It seems like I’m not improving and I did the best right after finishing The CC. I’ve had a lot of stress in my life for the past few weeks which could explain the dip, but I’m taking the August exam. I guess I’m trying to figure out if I should 1) do the CC again, 2) stop taking PTs and go through sets untimed or 3) keep taking PTs and blind reviewing

Thank you. Things should quiet down after this weekend so hopefully I can get back on track. I am taking my time with BR, but I definitely should spend more time on it. My BR scores are closer to the 170s, so I definitely am understanding it, maybe a little rushed/ distracted. I've noticed that when I can really focus I am getting -3/-1 in LR. I am doing drills, mostly just individual timed sections rather than three in a row.
Probably something odd to be concerned about...but can we go to the bathroom during LSAT flex? I have a GI condition and I need to go when I need to go. So since we don’t get any breaks, Does anyone know how that is going to work?
Really quickly I just wanted to hop on and say thank you JY so much for creating 7sage. It was definitely the reason I was able to improve so quickly. I was working full time and studying for about two hours a day. The video lessons, explanations, and problem sets were so easy to follow and the app made fitting in lessons so easy. Congrats to everyone who took the August Flex!
9 am EST I believe. I might be wrong regarding the time zone
Thanks so much! I'm definitely willing to put in the time and effort. I do work full time, and lately from home, so I study when work is slow, as well as before and after work. Ideally, I would like to not have to take the LSAT a second time, but I also realize that this may not be realistic.
Hey Y'all, I am a first-time LSAT taker hoping to apply this fall. I'm currently signed up for the August LSAT, but I'm wondering if I should go ahead and sign up for October as well given that August will be my first one? I also could take August LSAT and then find out my score and take November, but I'm worried that it may be a bit late in the cycle. My diagnostic was a 156 and after a week of studying on my own, a 158. I started studying with 7sage last week (after trying to self study) and I'm working through the core curriculum. My goal score is really anywhere in the 160s. The higher the better, but I'd be happy with anything over a 162. Thanks for your input!
one of my friends is currently at a top 50 school and her highest score was a 150. Your score is not the only thing that defines you, and, like others have said, if you have a strong "why" then it will definitely shine in your application. Different approaches will also be helpful. I know a big change happened for me in LR when i started reading the stimulus before the question stem, contrary to what was recommended. Play around with it and make sure you're taking breaks! You can do it :)
if you withdraw registration i believe you would only get back $50 if done so by September 4th. https://www.lsac.org/lsat/lsat-dates-deadlines/october-2020-lsat-deadlines-united-states-including-puerto-rico-us-virgin
When I interviewed for what is my current full time job, I did tell them that I wanted to go to law school. I only told them because they asked, though. I told them that I was hoping to go to law school at some point, but I did not provide a specific timeline, and if possible/ if they ask why you may want to explain how going to law school would make you a more valuable employee. Definitely be honest if they ask about future ambitions, but I wouldn't volunteer the information if not asked.
UConn also does this. They guarantee some sort of aid if admitted under ED and there's a turn around time of 14 days but they don't specify how much they'll award.
