I worked with Albert for 6 sessions as well and am SO happy I found him!!! Although I've been studying for this test for far too long, when I started working with Albert I hadn't yet taken a post-CC PT and was questioning whether I would be able to take the November LSAT to apply this application cycle. Albert helped me craft a study schedule to ensure that I could at least give myself the opportunity to take November and apply this cycle. Thanks to Albert's encouragement and sessions together, I was able to get from a 139 diagnostic to a PT average of 168 with a few rare breakthroughs in the 170s. I took the November test this weekend and felt confident coming out which I wouldn't have expected just two months ago. Literally wouldn't have taken the test or have felt as confident as I did without Albert :smile:
The most helpful thing that Albert and I worked on together was RC - I think most people understand the struggle with RC, and based on a lot of anecdotal stories I kept my expectations low about improving in RC. After just a two sessions or so with Albert my RC score started to improve and it ended up being a strength. I went from probably a -7 on my first post-CC PT to a -0 in my last PT with about a -3 consistently. When you work on RC and LR with Albert you will work on a passage and the questions together, and in a way that feels collaborative and approachable. Although this sounds super basic, approaching the test in a way that isn't so intimidating makes the biggest difference. For me I felt like I was able to get over a mental hurdle in thinking that I somehow couldn't understand the passages, and it directly translated into feeling more confident about my abilities when taking my PTs. Working with Albert allowed me to listen more to my intuition, which allowed me to move quicker and more confidently in PTs.
Although I'm hoping I won't need to retake in January, I'll be looking forward to working with Albert again if I do!! Thank you @ :smile:

Hi! This will be my first time as well and I’ve had the same issue! I talked to the help desk/technician and they did the equipment test and said that RAM should be fine.

I've seen on Reddit that they're being released this week!

@ The new testing limits can be found at the following link under "How many times may I take the LSAT?" - https://www.lsac.org/lsat/taking-lsat/lsat-faqs
Here's the summary:
"Starting with the September 2019 test administration, test takers will be permitted to take the LSAT:
Three times in a single testing year (the testing year goes from June 1 to May 31).
Five times within the current and five past testing years (the period in which LSAC reports scores to law schools).
A total of seven times over a lifetime.
This policy is forward-looking, not retroactive. Tests taken prior to September 2019 will not count against these numerical limits."
My understanding from listening to various consultants and tracking the last two admissions cycles is that yes, schools will see all of your scores, but they only care about your highest score (for purposes of USNWR reporting) and taking it four vs. three times won't put you at a disadvantage. I'd like to give myself the chance to take it as many times as needed (only if it makes sense of course given where my PTs would be at), which is why I brought up the potential April first take (since it falls within the June 1 to May 31 2020 testing year).
Let me know if that helps!

@ Yep! See third emoji bullet point above
Hello 7Sage! Like many of you, my LSAT story has been long and a bit complicated. I won't bore you with the details of my LSAT history, but here are some of the key points to give you context on where I am now:
I plan to re-start my LSAT studies again starting October 1. When going through the CC, I plan to do half (or more if needed) of the problem sets for each problem type, and leave the other half of the problem sets for drilling. Assuming that my diagnostic is still at a 139 and my goal is 168+, is taking the test in April 2020 with a likely retake in June/July 2020 reasonable? The study timeline/breakdown would be to finish the CC by end of December, foolproof for January, and PT for February/March/April. I'm familiar with the post-CC strategy webinar, and intend on following that structure when I'm at the PT phase. I believe I've read that PTing is ideally a 6 month process, so if you think a June/July first attempt with a likely retake in September is more reasonable, please let me know! Some things motivating me to first take the LSAT in April 2020 are (1) with the renewed limit on LSAT takes, the April test would count in a different testing cycle and wouldn't count toward my 3 takes in a single testing year (so theoretically I could retake three additional times after that in the fall), and (2) I would like to ideally be done with the LSAT before returning to my job mid/end next summer.
Thank you in advance for the advice! I'm really excited to finally do this properly and to work with you all over the next several months! :)

@ Thank you so much for your detailed reply! I started at the same diagnostic score so this is really encouraging :smile: Were you studying while in school or working PT or FT? If so, do you have any tips for managing studying and other commitments?

Hi! I'm interested in this as well - I've been thinking about making a similar post so this is perfect! As of now I'm just starting the MSS section so am not too far along.

Please add me as well - thank you!
In November (first time) I did the forgot password trick to sign up. I was able to sign up for January by just logging into my Proctor U account.
