I forgot where I saw a clip of a taped section. After much resistance, I have decided to do it. Can anyone point me to where I can find a clip? Thanks!

Hey y'all. I'm looking for a study partner for the Dec test. Based out of Orange County, CA. This is gonna be my third time taking it and I'm hoping to break the 170 mark. Love to link up with a study partner with similar goals, someone down to motivate one other the next ten weeks, and open to discussing problems any problems with the test. I'm struggling mostly with LR and RC. Feel free to shoot me an email - ahsieh24@gmail.com and we'll touch base. Happy studying!

WV resident looking for someone to meet up with to study in person occasionally. Located in north central WV but willing to meet up within a reasonable driving distance.

Currently about 2 months into pretty relaxed studying but looking to create more structure/accountability.

If this sounds interesting reach out whenever!

Hello, I am currently scoring 161 and have tried to join study groups in the past but unfortunately, they have become inactive or study at different times than I do. I study in the evenings east coast time starting at 4 pm ET to nighttime. Is there anyone else who would like to study together in the evenings and keep each other accountable? We could do it over zoom, discord or even WhatsApp. If anyone is interested, please DM me.

I'm an idiot. I registered for the LSAT prior to the deadline for November. It asked for a photo and I just uploaded a selfie from a while ago because it was perfect - plain photo background, no shadows, etc. I began to read the requirements and I think I'm screwed. For starters, I lost about 25 pounds since then. Secondly, I shaved my beard about 3 weeks ago so it's not as full. Genuinely worried that my test is not even going to happen because I was being stupid and wasn't thinking carefully. The anxiety is officially through the roof. Not sure what to do.

Hi! When I do Grouping w/ Chart games, I feel like the standard grouping game board is a better fit for some games while chart is better for some others. Chart is safe for all these Chart games, but charting is slow and the chart is difficult to edit. Does anyone have a good way to judge when to use std. grouping and when to use chart for Grouping w/ Chart Games? Thank you! I really appreciate it.

Wondering if anybody on here has just taken the Sept 2017 LSAT in Australia? It is different from the US version and hoping to gain any insight into the experimental sections/any general thoughts you had !

I had 3 LR so i know that my LG and RC were real.

From what i can remember:

LG1: One layer sequencing game

Had a Condition that M-W.

R either first or 6th

LG2: Something with artefacts

LG3:[completely skipped as pressed for time]

LG4: Double layer sequencing game

Buildings being erected either Upper or Lower (Buildings FGHI)

RC:

-reading about kente woven fabric

-reading about whether chemistry and physics are linked

-reading about law systems in UK and technology

Any info about how many questions were in each of your LRs would be super helpful!

Thanks :))))

Hi, everyone! I'm retaking in December but am forcing myself to halt LSAT prep for a week to start working on my PS. I hope to have a first rough draft complete by Monday, and I'd love to get feedback from a variety of sources. Would anyone be willing to trade essays with me to give and receive some constructive feedback? Please PM if so :)

And if you don't have an essay to give me, but you want to read/critique mine, let me know!

Proctors: 3

Facilities: In the Farmer School of Business first floor

What kind of room:, Small auditorium type room, 5 rows of the big arching desks you see in science rooms.

How many in the room: Around 30-35

Desks: long desks all connected, we all had ample room I had two empty chairs to either side of me.

Left-handed accommodation: Yes

Noise levels:quiet, no complaints here

Parking:No problem

Time elapsed from arrival to test:

5-6 hours?

Irregularities or mishaps: The proctors told us at the beginning they would let us know when there was 15 minutes left for each section and they forgot on one section. It didn't really affect me but just something to notice.

Other comments: All went welll

Would you take the test here again? Yes

Date[s] of Exam[s]: December 5, 2015

Proctors: Middle of the road. Good but not great. Firm but not too strict.

Facilities: Plenty of room. Lighting could have been a little brighter. Temperature was fine. Chairs were reasonably comfy.

What kind of room: Large gathering room located in their Alumni Center which is just off campus.

How many in the room: We had about 25 but it could have easily accomodated several more.

Desks: Long skinny rectangles. Sadly, the surface was textured. Come on La Sierra.

Left-handed accommodation: Not needed with their setup.

Noise levels: Very quiet.

Parking: Plentiful and close. No sticker or permit needed.

Time elapsed from arrival to test: About half an hour.

Irregularities or mishaps: For some reason the proctor took about 3 seconds between sections 4 and 5 after she had moved at a much more normal pace on all the other change-overs. Watch reset had to happen super fast on that one.

Other comments: Bathroom facilities were decent and accomodated an appropriate number of people for the number who were taking the exam (which was NOT the case at my previous LSAT location).

Would you take the test here again? Yes

    If there's a 5/5 difficulty question that I get correct on my first try, should I make an effort to go over and identify/rule out the trap answers? I guess in a way I must have done that in my original answering. I worry that going over them more might make me more confused when my intuition/reasoning was right the first time. Thoughts? Is it worth doing to carry over?

    Proctors: Decent, actually kind of funny, very relaxed. Made a couple of jokes throughout that eased the tension a bit 9/10.

    Facilities: Older building, temperature was perfect, probably right at 65 degrees 9/10

    What kind of room: Class Room

    How many in the room: About 40

    Desks: TERRIBLE!!!!!!!!! Tiny desks, LG was a nightmare 0/10

    Left-handed accommodation: A couple of spare desks

    Noise levels: Great building for an older university 9/10

    Parking: Free parking on Saturdays, ample room 9/10

    Time elapsed from arrival to test: About 30 minutes

    Irregularities or mishaps: Stupid obvious questions from other test takers

    Other comments:

    Would you take the test here again?

    Absolutely not. Based solely on the size of the desk. I actually felt as if it was a terrible disadvantage and not only slowed me down on LG logistically but also added an extra stress that I needed to accommodate for. other than this, no other complaints.

    I took September LSAT but ended up cancelling the score.

    I am 31 week into my pregnancy and my due date overlaps with December test, so instead of postponing the test, I decided to go ahead and take it for the experience of it.

    I had about 3 months to prepare for the September test and the more I studied, the more I felt lost.

    Also, with pregnancy and a full time job, I couldn't spend as much time studying as I wished.

    My biggest issue is timing. English is my second language and even though I do not have comprehension problem, my reading speed is slow. (less than 240 word/min)

    I believe this is something that I can train myself for the next few months.

    I do want to make a better study plan this time since I have more time in my hand.

    With 11 months to go, at which point should I sign up for 7 sage prep classes ( I am planing to sign up for the basic one)?

    Even though I am planning to continue with my study after the delivery, I am expecting December and January will be really difficult to spare a lot of time on studying with the new born.

    My only study materials in the past were Mike Kim's 'LSAT trainer' and Actual 10s.

    I've used 7sage's LG videos for LG explanation and really liked it.

    I do have most of the past prep tests. Do I need to buy any other books?

    I have heard a lot of good things about Power Score Bibles. Is 7sage alone enough or will I benefit from more prep materials such as Power Score?

    Any thoughts/ advice will be deeply appreciated.

    Thank you!
