Hello guys,

As we all know, the December LSAT scores came out on yesterday. This was my first time taking the test and I was deeply disappointed by my score. I scored an 139. I was in complete shock because when I would take practice tests, I scored a 151. Upon reviewing my answer key and etc, I found that the answers I changed were actually correct. Second guessing and timing are my biggest downfalls. I think another issue that I suffered from was the fact that I was so fixated on numbers rather than accuracy. I wish I would have known about 7sage earlier on. I used the powerscore bibles to prepare and wanted to join a 7sage prep course. However, due to me being unemployed, I could not afford to pay for a class. My score got to me at first but I had to realize that nothing in life that we truly want comes easily. It takes hard work, determination, persistence, and good faith! With that being said, I will be retaking the exam in February and wanted to get you guys opinion on how I can increase my score and become more confident. My desired score is a 150 or above. I know that I can do it because law school is my destiny. Thank you 7sage community for your support!!

Hi all,

In the December LSAT, I had an experimental LR section so only one RC section (section 4). I remember clearly two of the articles were on perfume and stealing thunder. In the LSAC's Disclosure Book uploaded RC section, neither of these articles were included. Anyone else notice this issue?

Hi 7Sage community! I have a quick question for you guys:

I took the LSAT for the first time two and a half years ago and I really didn't do my best. However, I sat for the December 2014 LSAT and my new score is 6 points higher than my old one. So I know that law schools will be able to see both scores, but I've heard that they really consider the highest score. How true is that? I mean, should I be applying to schools with LSAT ranges that include my higher score or will I have to shoot a little bit lower?

Hi all,

As we all already know our scores from the December LSAT, I thought I would put this out there and get some opinions. The December test was my second time taking the LSAT as I took it in June. I scored 7 points higher than my first LSAT but unfortunately 4 points lower than my average has been on my timed practice tests from 7sage. As far as applying for schools should I just take that as test day jitters and send out my applications or maybe take the test in February. Also would it look bad to take the test 3 times to some schools? Im kind of confused as to what I should do right now, so any input would be appreciated.

Just got my score for the Dec LSAT and my score improved by 14 points. Of course the huge jump was in part due to my own mistakes but I just wanted to say THANK YOU to 7sage and thank you to everyone else for creating such an awesome community.

any one looking for a study buddy? I'm looking to test in June and would like to spread the studying out over 6 months- meet up once every week or every other week so that all the problems become second nature. In person would be best but I would work via skype as well. It definitely helps to talk some through with other people.

Has anyone ever completed any research as to the total percentage of LR question types that have appeared throughout the years? For example, what percentage of total questions have MBT appeared? Or MSS, Strengthening and Weakening questions, etc. I haven't been able to find anything empirical on it from a source that I trusted. Has J.Y. ever put anything out on the subject?

good luck to everyone who took in Dec

Hey guys, anyone know if the release date for the Dec '14 exam is the same for unpublished test centers?

Can I withdraw my already submited applications if Im not happy with Dec LSAT score?

If I do, would that mean Id have to check the applied before box if i apply the following cycle?

Hi guys,

Just wanted your take on this. For the past three tests now i have seen my blind review score go up. 158-165, but my actual score is not increasing as much and there is still a 10 point gap. What would you recommend to fix the problem, if there is one? Let me know your thoughts.

Writing the Feb exam

Hey you guys! I wanted to share with you all that I have a fee waiver for Georgia State University & University of Georgia Law. If anyone really needs this please let me know asap! I will not use them since they were given to me at a Law School Fair.

For the last couple of days, I've been checking my LSAT account every other hour. I'm getting crazy.

Is this correct?

A most B most C

I took the Dec test but did not feel I aim my goal. Will re-take, looking for a study buddy to do PTs together for January. I am close to Emory. And prefer to do PTs in the morning testing time.

Is there anybody in Milwaukee up for studying together?

Let's face it, we don't have time to diagram logical reasoning questions on the test especially if your a slow reader like me. So when I get to parallel questions it pisses me off cause I have to sit there and diagram the stimulus and every answer choice until I get to the right one.

So instead of diagramming parallel questions, I just put it like this: A-->B B--->C therefore A--->C and try to find an answer choice that follows the same logic instead of diagramming the actual words in the stimulus.

I ask this question because obviously on analysis questions you are supposed to analyze for the strength/validity of the argument and you can often find flaws with it. However certain other questions need you just to figure out the structure and describe or something like that. Whenever i do these questions, i still try to see the argument and try to figure out if it has any flaws and or how to make it a valid argument. Is that a good idea? or is it a waste of time since those kinds of questions would have "perfect" arguments.

When does PT 74 Come out!?

1. Can someone explain how the first and second sentences are rephrasings of each other?

- If the elevator malfunctioned, it wasn't properly maintained.

- The elevator would only have malfunctioned if it wasn't properly maintained.

2. What's the best way to tell the difference between a correct strengthen answer and a premise booster (or de-booster for weaken questions?) Had a little problem on PT62 Sec 4 #14

Looking for form an online or in person meet up LSAT prep group, anyone interested?

High-scorers; serious study!

Can you please provide a PDF version of this entire MAP or if you have multiple files you can send it to me as well. I need this for visualization perspective! Big picture perspective!

Thanks
