I have a question about the requirements of extra time. I have bad ADD and in high school, I took each section of the ACT on separate days. If I have documentation that I received this accommodation on the ACT, will the LSAT definitely grant me time and a half or double time or is it still in question? Thanks

I don't have a recommendation... Just here to say that I feel you!
I'm taking July and I've had my head in the books since April, though I've studied off and on for almost a year now. With the big day approaching I'm freaking. out. I'm striving for a high 160 but my scores have been stagnant in the low 160s for the past 6 PTs I've completed :neutral: My LR and LG are pretty stable but my RC has fluctuated wildly from -3 a couple weeks ago to -11 (WTF?!?!) a couple days ago.
I can't tell you how to increase your score by 6 points in a month but I can tell that I'll be trying my best to do the same. The only way that I see either of us pulling it off is by working really really hard. Every moment that I sit here thinking about whether such a jump is even possible, what my strategy should be, what scores will get me into what schools, contemplating life itself, etc.... is precious time wasted. I'd say there's a ~10% chance that such a large jump will happen for us. But more importantly, I'd say that 100% chance that it WON'T happen if we waste any time worrying about it.
Sorry, this has turned into a pep talk directed at myself haha.
We've already missed the deadline to change the date to September and our only option at this point would be to withdraw. I'm trying my best to look at July as an exciting challenge and opportunity. And if worse comes to worse, there is always September!
That said, I gotta get back to work! BR is calling my name :smiley: WE CAN DO THIS!!!
hahaha you better frickin believe it cardi bri, we gon show it whose boss

I was able to do that.
I got a 160 on a PT and then a month later a 168 on the real thing.

only difference between me and you is, you are naturally good at LR. How do you score like that on LR/how can I improve
I’m gonna put in 180 hours. Will see what happens
Thanks for the advice. My issue on LR is mainly accuracy and yes, it was prep test 71.
After finishing the CC and taking various separate sections over the course of June, I took my first full timed test today and hit a 160. I went -17 LR, -7 games, -5 RC (the test had a -14 curve luckily) With my target score being a 166, what is the likelihood of me hitting this by the July 23 test? Also, any recommendations on how I should best approach this goal? Thanks for the insight.

@ Hey how is studying going? Are you getting close to your target score?
im pretty inconsistent. ill go from a 158 to 163 the next day. i have a hard time being consistent with all three sections. Sometime they play to my strengths and sometimes they don't. Trying to get to the point where I'm consistent everyday
Thanks for your input. With Harvard now accepting GRE scores and my GRE score which I got last year being much higher percentage wise, do you think it would better serve me to just apply with the GRE and hope to get in as my LSAT won't bring their numbers down? I'm also not a URM

Is early decision a large boost for in-state applicants in particular?
