At or above the 75th GPA and LSAT is what I consider safe.

Fell below my average for the second time. Crap.

They'll be out sometime in January. Probably January 2nd or 3rd, 4th at the latest.

Thought that was a pretty easy one.

Dang this test destroyed me, scored well below my average. Oh well, it's a good thing I'm signed up for December.

S16 LSAT Scale, out of 101 questions:

180 = -2

175 = -6

170= -12

165= -18

160= -27

155= -36

150= -45

145= -54

per killoran

I'm convinced that they still haven't solved the virus game themselves

It came out at 6:39 PM EST before so there's a tiny bit of hope

About to give up hope on today

I hate everything there is to hate about LSAC

I've been having some bizarre dreams about getting my score. I'm totally fine with retaking, just let this wait be over with

RC(exp)-LR-RC was definitely brutal. I'm gonna be working on that so make sure it doesn't throw me off if I need to retake it.

I don't think 1 week is long enough to get your sleep schedule well adjusted. It took me about a month to get it down. I'm one of those people who takes forever to fall asleep though, but I had no trouble sleeping or getting up for September.

I cut out almost all caffeine, which helped a ton. I work out in the mornings, but I still cut out my pre workout, which is loaded with caffeine. Definitely no caffeine is the afternoon/evening for me.

Keeping stress levels low leading up to the test was probably the biggest difference maker for me though. On nights where I had a lot on my mind, I'd toss and turn, as expected. Easier said than done, but avoiding stressful thoughts/actions/behaviors, especially near bedtime, is helpful.

Experimental RC section as the first section, yikes

@jhaldy10325 Oh man, if ONLYYYYYYYY. I'm less optimistic - I'm thinking -10/-11

I feel good about the curve. This test had harder RC and games than 77, and that one got a -12. I felt like 78 was a walk in the park compared to this last one, and 78 got a -11.

Sticking to my -13 prediction.

-13 for a 170

I got two RC sections, so that blows. I probably did pretty poorly on the real one, but hoping for the best?

Also, I took the test in a huge room with a lot of people. At least 5 people (per section) asked to leave the room mid-section for a bathroom break. That really surprised and sort of threw me off for a few seconds each time. It blows my mind that people can just leave like that.

I was in the same exact boat for about a year. I've been able to finally gain ground, so working on RC is not a lost cause, it just takes longer to improve on than any other section did for me.

The single most important shift I made in my studies was buying most of JY's explanations for the PT's in the 70's. After watching JY read 10-15 passages and attack the questions, I've sort of developed his same confident and focused approach to RC.

Through his explanations, JY constantly reminded me that it's not the end of the world when you come across a passage where you have no clue what's going on. Just pull through and get the main idea of each paragraph and really try to understand the structure.

The thing is, I've heard that same thing said to me about a million times from a bunch of different sources, but I never really understood what it meant until recently.

All in all, I highly recommend listening to JY explain his interpretation of the passages up until you adopt the same sort of attack strategy that he has.

Sorry to hijack the thread but I have a related question. In regards to CC, how much do law schools take degree GPA into account vs CC gpa? My CC gpa is higher than my university GPA, but they average to 3.8+. Would I get knocked for being on a bit of a downwards trend?

I may be a little late but I'm in

Finally done with school. I'm locked in and ready to join in on these

I can't make this one, but hopefully next week!

Who do I add on skype? And I assume these are Eastern times?

I also took TM and never finished because it was so rushed. I signed up for 7Sage soon after, and that was absolutely the best decision I made in my LSAT journey.

I didn't realize how much work my fundamentals needed until I went through the curriculum. Plus, the price for the starter course is a killer deal for what you get.

Robin is obviously incredible at the LSAT, but I don't think his teaching methods are useful for every student out there. I hated the TM approach to games especially. JY's outlook on games makes everything so simple, while TM was overly complicated.

DO NOT take the test. You have an amazing GPA and you can pretty much go to any school you want to, do not take that for granted. A couple hundred dollars is gonna mean nothing if you smash the LSAT next year and end up getting money to go to your dream school. I would rather spend $600 on cancelling and taking the LSAT when I'm ready, when the alternative is120k+ in loan debt to a school I don't really wanna go to.

I'm in the same boat, I've cancelled both October and December. We put in way too much hard work to get our GPA's to where they are to mess around with this test. Personally, I've adjusted my goal score in light of waiting another year to apply, I'm sure you can too.

By the way, do cancelled tests appear on your record? I know they count as 1 of your 3 takes, but do schools actually see that you took the test?

Please, don't take for the sake of cancelling. Each take is precious, don't waste one.
