You must be registered for an upcoming test in order to start the accommodations request process.

  • sign into your lsac
  • click the LSAT dropdown at the top and select "request or modify accomodations"
  • scroll down and hit "request accomodations"
  • You'll need to submit two forms: Candidate Form and a Qualified Professional Form

    You submit and wait to get an email. If you submit both forms it's very likely you'll be granted all accommodations you request.

    Hope this helps!

    Can someone explain this? It says "most anthropologists" agreed with Darwin. I may just be blind but I can't seem to find where it says or even suggests that "most" anthropologists. It does suggest that Darwin's theory was the preexisting accepted theory but that doesn't necessarily mean the "most"

    OC Study Buddy

    Hi looking for a study buddy/study group/looking for people who are currently studying for the LSAT in the OC area. Let's tackle this beast together.

    Does anyone else feel like the grammar section becomes repetitive and a waste of time? I get the point- but it feels over the top. Sometimes I feel like I should be studying more important sections.

    Studying Techniques

    I've been studying with PowerScore LSAT bibles since mid May until I learned about 7Sage and I am just wondering if there's specific way I should be studying aside from the schedule that was made for me when I signed up? I am still in the process of completing all of Foundation lessons (feel like it's taking me forever!!) should i wait until I start my LR lessons to start completing drills?

    I'm a relatively high-scoring pretest taker (average score 174.7 on my 10 most recent preptests), but it feels like I sometimes struggle with basic structure questions. Case in point, for PT 105 S3 Q4 I selected answer choice A, rather than the correct answer E. After going back and reviewing the question, I can see how E would make sense, but in the moment I seem to find such questions difficult. This seems to carry over to other basic structure questions (such as PT108, S1, Q4). Does anyone have any tips on avoiding structural question pitfalls?

    Hello, I am currently PTing around 165, I am working to get into the 170's by September. I am looking for a study buddy, mostly for silent study sessions/body doubling. I will typically study in the evenings and weekends because of my job. Let me know if you're interested.

    Hello all!

    I am wanting to apply to law school this fall and need guidance putting my application together. I have loved 7sage for LSAT prep and I am currently working my way through the application videos. I am looking for advice and opinions on application consulting services. Have any of you used 7sage and if so what was your experience like? Have you used another service and if so same question? Honestly, I want to use 7sage but it's a little pricey and so I just want to make sure it's worth it. I am meeting with a consultant later this week but just want to know if anyone has any strong opinions on it.

    So, I would love to hear any and all experiences, opinions or advice. This is a lot of money for me to spend so I am wanting to make the most of it. TIA:)

    Hello all,

    I haven't been on 7Sage that long, and I am in the process of completing the core curriculum. That said, I am finished with the Foundations portion, so I am moving onto the LR and RC sections of the curriculum. I plan to take my first LSAT in October, but I am wondering how I should go about studying. I hope to take my first PT (not counting my diagnostic) this Friday even though I am not finished with the CC. It seems to be the case that I am pressed for time and need to drill and take PTs before I finish the CC. So, I am basically doing CC, Drills, and PTs all at once, which I know is unorthodox.

    Is this problematic? Am I not pursuing a proper study schedule/structure? Has anyone done this and has it worked for them?

    My diagnostic was around a 145, and a majority of the time I had to fill in random answers as I ran out of time. This diagnostic PT also included LG, which were not intuitive for me one bit. I am aiming on a 160 - 163 and plan to apply to Law Schools in the Fall of 2025 for the school year of Fall 2026. I am not concerned with eventually attaining the score I want in a matter of a year, but I am more so concerned with rushing through my first LSAT since it's coming up and I don't have much time.

    Any help would be appreciated, thanks everyone.

    I take a PT every Saturday. The first one I took was a 143 (average for first time esp after only 3 weeks of studying) but I just took my second one and score horribly, I honestly feel embarrassed saying I scored lower than a 143.

    What do I do going forward? Does this happen to anyone else? Do I use my analytics page to see what I need to work on?

    I just feel really hopeless. I've been studying ~3.5 hours a day, and my exam is in 9 weeks. Thoughts?

    Printing my PrepTest

    My LSAT Preptests will not print. Everytime I click "printable", it just shows each section of the preptest in quick view. I have tried clearing my browsing data, but it still won't work.

    Take a minute to answer this question in the poll before continuing. This question is EVIL!!!! It may not seem so at first, but allow me to unpack the various tricks they use to make a rather simple question very tricky.

    I initially picked A, and ill explain my reasoning behind it. I read first that this is an inferrence statement, so immediately my mind is looking to fill in a logical hole. As I scan through the passage, my mind comes to this, "Why is it necessary to not build an incinerator to prevent waste? What if the incinerator is not used? What about other methods of disposal?" Then I see answer A, "All of the city's trash that is not recycled goes into the incinerators." This feels great! This fills in a hole in my mind about the waste, and clearly makes this argument complete. Trash either is recycled or put in the incinerator, so lets not build an incinerator. This is a great answer for a support/strengthen question, and it feeeeeels like it completes the logic of the argument. However, this one is wrong! Not only does it retread the ground of what happens to recycling when an incinerator is rebuilt(making this statement unnecessary), no where does the argument support this!!!! DON'T FORGET THE QUESTION STEM!!! We are looking for something we could logically conclude from the passage above, not looking to fix the passage in any way. Once you remember that, the question is obviously wrong.

    The other dangerous thing about this question is that the answer, D, looks awful. It uses very, very strong language of CANNOT and ANY. It uses the exact same language of the passage, which usually indicates a wrong answer. It elaborates on only one premise, instead of the whole passage, and it ignores the conclusion. Terrible!!! However, if you read it carefully, its pretty easy to prove. If the city is to avoid(avoid is a rather low bar) wasting resources, huge amounts of trash cannot be burned in any city incinerator. Looking at the rest of the passage, this is clear from the burn = waste. Some burning = some waste, so to avoid waste we avoid burning. Simple!

    This one is correct, but it takes dodging a lot of traps to get to it. Be careful! The LSAT creators are clever and will lay many traps to stop you!

    If -8 on average correlated to a 170 on the last 20 LG / LR / RC tests, curious to get folks pulse on whether that will shift under the new test. I know it will vary from test to test, but I'm looking for a directional sense.

    The reason I ask is that I understand many folks in the 170s went -0 on LG. So, I'm wondering if the test being all LR / RC will mean that maybe on average a -9-10 would be enough to be a 170 under the new test expecting that fewer folks will be able to consistently hit -0 on any section.

    Btw, this does assume that the scaled score adjusts with testers performance and the LSAC doesn't decide to just give fewer 170s (which would seem counterintuitive).

    I know this is rather speculative, but just curious for thoughts.

    Which type of drilling mode for LR is the most accurate/ close to the actual LSAT? The options are:

    1)7Sage Virtual Tutor picks

    2) Particular tags

    3) Tags and PrepTests

    4) Incorrect when last taken (PrepTests)

    5) Incorrect when last taken (Autobuilder)

    Which option should I select? I usually do option one, but I feel like its practice sections always consist mainly of 3-4 question types. For example, I will generate a practice section with made up of mostly Flaw, Parallel, and Method of Reasoning, while no Sufficient Assumption, RRE, MSS, etc., appear at all. Is this what LR sections are like on actual LSATs?

    Hi everyone,

    I recently signed up for 7Sage and just took my first practice exam. I wanted to see my results without completing the actual blind review, so the blind review results were obviously the same as my practice test results.

    Is it recommended to complete the blind review immediately after taking the practice test? To people who do that, does that mean you are essentially taking the same exam for 5+ hours?

    Appreciate any insights on the best way to complete the blind review after taking a 3 hour practice test!

    Thank you,

    RJ
