Hi all,
So I've been consistently fluctuating between 162-165. I would prefer a solid 167 or higher; can somebody tell me what the chances are that I could potentially get to a solid 167 before the December test, what can i do to improve? I notice my reading comprehension section is what brings me down. help?
I have one quick question, Is taking the December LSAT too late for admissions? any experiences? I plan to have all my work paper work submitted as I prepare, and have everything turned in before DEC 31. Since this would be my first time taking the test, I won't have a score to report, would that hurt my admission chances?
So, I've decided to postpone my test date from September to December as well as Signup for 7sage. I've been scoring in the 155-157 and I really want to be in the mid- high 160s. Did I make the right decision? ugh I hope I did, Why is this process so difficult ?!?! Im really good at LG, I'm usually finishing with 4-5 min left and getting 20 -23 correct. It seem as though i just can't win with LR and reading comp, my scores fluctuate between those two. Im hoping my signing for 7sage will really help me, I'm going crazy because i just can't seem to hit the 160 range! It's a terrible feeling.
@.rizeq Thanks a bunch !!

How does one do that? Who do I email or speak to? Help?
Thank you everyone !!! I really appreciate it !
Thank you 7sage, and thank you to the community and those who answered all my quirky questions. You guys are the very best!
I studied the LSAT while doing a Master's, took it this past Saturday. I was also writing a thesis this semester, it's doable. I started seriously studying in May, by the time the semester came around I was doing weekly PTs and drilling so I wasn't studying the concepts and so on. If you're planning on taking the test in June I would suggest starting now, with time management it is doable to get lots of studying done while juggling your school load..
Hey! So, I was wondering is there a length requirement or suggested length for personal statement letters? mine is almost two pages long, is that too long?
@
I had 3 LR... LR, RC, LR.....LG, LR
@ I also had that question in section 1.
Same here ... at this point I'm not even sure what score range to apply to.... I'm not sure I did what I've been doing on PTs and that feeling hurts.
@ holy moly I got the score I was waiting for...now to e-mail my school and ask for more $$$. Thank you to the December LSAT for being so kind. Wishing everyone the best!!!
Big Congratulations !!!! BALL OUT!
@ Communication gets all funky apparently - just thought it was interesting to note!
That could possibly explain why two schools have updated my application as complete. Nothing makes sense anymore.
@ Mercury's in retrograde right now.
what exactly does that mean?
How does one wait a whole month ..... ugh
@
Yes, I think so.
@ we are in the same boat. LG is my strongest section and I feel like it was such a let down section. guessed on the water color section because i was just confused and tried to do the last game, I'm not even sure how well I did on it. I feel so bad overall and hope my LR sections and Rc section boosts my score.
@ right, but what section 1 , 3 or 5?
@ I didn't get one about alexander the great ...
@ I don't remember a question about alexander the great.... what section was that in?
So the LG game with the paintings on the wall and the trading company screwed me with no vaseline !! Because wtf was that ???? to top it off I got 3 LR sections... I believe section 3 (26 questions ) was the experimental .. section one (25 questions) and section five (26 questions) i think were real ..... in other words, I am freaking out because LG is one of my strongest sections and I believe I bombed the last two question sets. They had no mercy whatsoever.
@ Alright, thanks Dillon. Im sitting on pins and needles right now... *sigh*
So, I just checked my application status for GW and it says my future lsat score has been received. Does this mean the scores are out for schools? I don't see anything on my LSAC acct; my application was on hold for my test scores.
Okay! Here is my dilemma, I have registered for the Testmasters course, but now I am having second thoughts and thinking about getting a refund and signing up for 7sage instead. The community have been so helpful so far, and I've heard such good things that I I'm considering changing, can someone who maybe have an experience with the live course vs. 7sage or anyone at all tell me why they find 7sage to be more beneficial. Please! I need to know by tomorrow so I can cancel and update my account.
Maybe stick with #2 to be safe
In addition to BR and other studies, how many timed prep-tests should I take per week? I'll be taking the September 24 LSAT.
I hope so, because this routine of waking up with anxiety is getting old.
So I hear a lot of people say "only do timed!" "Timed! Timed! Timed!" But, I've been wondering if doing all timed tests from the get-go help one build up the skills needed to do really well on the timed tests? I am aiming to do untimed tests until I start getting about 90% correct before moving into timed, I'm currently at 77% self-study untimed (I know I need to build it up), I take the September test, and have a live course with TestMasters that begins in July and ends a few days before the actual test. I'm using prep test 14-46 (untimed) to really hone in on the skills, and 47 - the rest (lol) for timed. What are your thoughts? Good strategy? Or am I kidding myself? #LSATCRAZIES
I am as anxious as can be, Netflix has helped throughout my wait up until the clock struck 12 and it became a reality that we could potentially get our scores tomorrow. Needless to say, I am sweating profusely and everything including my cute little Chinese crested powderpuff is irritating. So, for the rest of the day I've decided to stay in the dark and play sims 4. Yes, I play sims 4.
So, there has been some predictions that the scores will be released tomorrow (2), while this is good news, I'm between wanting to know and not wanting to know at all. My anxiety is off the roof, and even even starting Gotham on Netflix isn't helping. How are you guys coping with your anxiety while you wait?
Oh yea, happy new year!
@ @ omg yes! 79 was bad my LR score was unusual, lg was a -4 which was due to that last -excuse my language- fucked up game about the viruses and RC was -7. Light drilling Friday and hoping for the best Saturday. Good luck everyone !!!
Same thing happening here, maybe we are freaking out too much? for instance i did really well on prep test 78, but took pretest 79 today and scored 9 points worse than my usual score hm.... At this point I'm just going to drill and rest.
Thanks for all the advice, I truly appreciate it!
