I took it first in February 2018 I barely studied effectively or efficiently. I was supposed to take it in November 2020, but did not feel prepared enough so I pushed it back to January 2021. The January test was definitely harder than anticipated and scored what I was practicing at, I knew with more practice I could do better. I am signed up for the June 2021 test and am debating on pushing it back to August. My best section is the Games where right now I am getting -2 on them, whereas the LR I am getting between -7 and -10 and RC I am getting between -12 and -15. So I am trying to drill down on the RC in the mean time and get that down to the level of LR.

I could have sworn when I was looking at registering it with the 7th, then when I do register it was the 14th and I am like uhh I thought I was registering for the 7th?. Looking back they do not make that change clear either. frustrating

Hey there, I took the Powerscore online live course last year around May/June I liked it although found 7sage and the Loophole book to be more beneficial at explaining things. I have been switching between the Loophole and a couple 7sage videos as a I go and find the Loophole book to be helping me get better at the 7sage curriculum. The cons with the Powerscore class, if you are on a budget it is extremely expensive at almost $1k, I like that it was live however a lot of the class times were super late for me. I am the type of person to go to be at 9 or 9:30pm to get up and study at work at 7am so most of the classes went until 11pm. I believe it is the same information in the Powerscore books just with a little bit extra umpfh supplemental info. I believe I only had access for a couple months after the courses ended to rewatch the material.

Whereas here in 7sage you have access to almost (if not all) the practice tests and videos for majority of the questions which I like you can do at your own pace and rewatch if needed. I think JY explains it in a very simplified way that any range of skill level on the LSAT can understand.

There might be more info the LSAT reddit about prep courses, but I love 7sage for how relatively cheap it is in comparison to other methods. If you want to take a month or so break you can pause your account.

LSAT Test Limit

I know the max amount of times you can take the test is 5 within the past 5 years/ reporting period. I took the test first Feb 2018 and again Jan 2021. There is also a statement on LSAC's website that says "This policy is forward-looking, not retroactive. Tests taken prior to September 2019 will not count against these numerical limits."

I may be overthinking it and my anxiousness for the June 2021 test is creeping up (I was not freaking out before, but now I am and definitely feeling under prepared for what I want to score), but with the 5 test limit my Feb 18 test will not count towards the 5 limit test correct? But then will it count towards the 7 lifetime tests?

Admissions · Any other splitters out there want to connect, talk about the app process, and review app materials?

This may be a silly question, however I have heard of some proctor exam services flagging the exam if there are slight noises from outside. I am planning on taking the exam at my work place building in my bosses office. There is music playing outside in the middle part of the building and outside the building that can slightly be heard through the windows. Would this get flagged? Should I try to find another location?

General · Any one else here struggling with ADHD? Looking for advice.

I was diagnosed in 2013 (summer after freshman year of college) with ADHD, it definitely hindered a lot of my college experience, GPA and anxiety wise as well as other symptoms that play in our lives. Other factors also contributed to that as well, but as far as studying it took me a long time to figure out how I study and learn best. I found out having a routine helps me stay on task tremendously. I think I did not realize what worked best for me studying wise until last year! As others have said, do not be afraid to ask for accommodations, do not be afraid to see what the school is able to do for you in regards to accommodations or other things that may help you.

The medications helps me tremendously. From staying on task, keeping me from not buzzing around too much, to other things. I actually tried to not take it in October 2019- February 2020 to see if I "could live without it" and then it dawned on me that the Adderall is similar to anti-depressants, insulin, other necessary medications people need to function 100% as themselves.

So far I have found studying in the morning before work works the best, I have been getting up at 5:30/6am to get to Starbucks and study before I get into work at 9am. Then I work out after work, shower, eat dinner, relax a little bit, sleep and repeat during the week. Obviously if you work a different shift that may look differently for you! I have also found that working out/ getting some sort of exercise helps with endorphins and tiring myself out for the end of the day.

Getting the dosage of the medication right may also take a couple tries, so do not be afraid to tell your doctor what your thoughts are on it. Make sure you do not forget to eat, I always forget to eat lunch because I barely feel hungry until 1/2pm and then I'm hangry and do not forget to get enough sleep either!

For my parents it took a long time (until 2019) for them to realize there was actually something "wrong" with me and it was not just in my head like they thought. My dad had a car accident and his symptoms were exacerbated (I am curious whether from the concussion he had) and my mom is now like "oh wow, I see what you mean" because he should also probably be medicated.
