Hi there! I am currently scheduled to take the August LSAT flex (it is now spread out over a week) and signed up for one on September 2nd. I know that typically you have until the day before the LSAT to drop out, but since this one was supposed to be on August 29th, I was wondering if anyone knew if I had to drop by the 28th or if I could drop on September 1st. Thank you!

Hi! I have done all the 60-80's PTs and now have to rely on the older exams (30-50)and was wondering which ones have you found to be the most similar? Is it bad to base a practice test on the older exams? Should I redo 60-80PT's? I took some about 3 months ago but it is not a fresh test so am worried.

I have a question about what you guys do after a PT in regards to your wrong LR answers. I know a lot of people do wrong answer journals which seems like a great idea, but I was wondering what exactly those who do that write down for each wrong question. Do you go over each answer choice and write out an explanation? What made you pick that specific wrong answer? etc. A lot of people have said this led to lots of improvement and I am hoping someone could explain what has worked and helped them. Thanks!

I marked this as a time-change flaw because it seems as though the author is using the past to predict the future. Does anyone else feel like it would be fair/correct to call it a time-change flaw? Obviously E is also an attractive answer since you cannot fully isolate the variables involved in preventing nuclear war, but aren't you simply supposed to assume that the information in the stimuli is correct and mostly valid when dealing with flaw questions?

I'm looking for a study buddy in Chicago who would be willing to meet in person maybe 1-2 evenings a week. I'm prepping for the September LSAT and would prefer to work with someone already scoring at least in the 160s but I'm pretty flexible. Send me a message if interested!

Hey everyone,

I spent 3 weeks at an international legal academy hosted at a university in Switzerland during my undergrad years. It wasn't any type of program sponsored by my university, and since it was less than a year long I thought I wasn't supposed to send the transcript to LSAC. But some law schools specifically say "Transcripts of postsecondary work completed at a college or university outside the United States or Canada must be submitted through the LSAC Credential Assembly Service (CAS)."

Does anyone have any idea whether these instructions would apply to less than a year of study, or whether LSAC would even accept the transcripts if I sent them?

I know LSAC has been changing it up lately. When was the last time they pulled this baby out? Do we see this happening soon ? I enjoy them more than a lot of other games but I am just curious as to when this rarely used game may be making a comeback

I have done this passage 3 times and have gotten 4 wrong every time. I was just wondering if anyone else has done this passage and has found the questions to just be too hard. I normally go -3 to -5 but dang I don't even know what happened here...

Is the 250 word optional essay a diversity statement?

Hey All,

I wanted to Kickoff a Study Group for September's Test. I was thinking Monday, Wednesday nights, and Sundays....open to suggestions!

I recently completed the core curriculum and decided to take PT 36 completely untimed. I scored a 172, and although I know this is not indicative how I will perform under actual testing conditions, does anyone have tips on how to improve timing? I am aiming to hit the 170+ range timed by the end of August (not sure if this is reasonable).

Tis that time of year! Anyone want to swap LOCI? Let's show those adcomms just how excited and well-informed we are!

Hey so as the title says, I'm looking for a study partner.

I ask for the higher score because I think it'd be nice to study with someone that has a better understanding than you. This doesn't necessarily mean I am looking for a free tutor or something though - I've actually got a tutor from TLS I'll be working with soon (and have worked with in the past). I've been studying for a while now, my last PT was 156 and this was months ago, during my school semester. I studied a lot during my last summer and into my school semester a bit (wanted to take in december) but didn't quite get the score I wanted on PT's so didn't bother writing in addition to getting caught up with school work that took precedent over LSAT studying so I did what I could to maintain.

I am again however, hoping to write in december. I think this time will be a lot better for me since I don't have to spend a most of my time figuring out what the hell I was doing in the first place, and can spend these months drilling - which is where the partner comes in. I think it'd be good for things such as LR (over skype) or discussing general strategies for the test.

If anyone scoring well would be interested, just reply below.

Any New Orleanians in here?

Would anyone be willing to look over my LOCI??

Hi folks,

I've started to blind review with the practice tests, and I'm a bit confused on what PTs to blind review with. I've done the first 4 PTs, and they're going well, but I've heard that the later, more recent PTs are more representative of the question types and difficulty I could expect on test day. Does anyone have any thoughts as to whether to start at the very beginning of the tests, or to jump ahead and start PT'ing with the more recent tests? Thank you so much!

So I just registered for the September 2019 LSAT on BYU's campus. I'm trying to find out where on campus the test is actually administered, but I can't find anything. Is that something that I won't be able to find out until I can print my admission ticket? Any information is appreciated! Thanks!

Can I infer some are -P from the statement that most people are P? I think saying most people are mortal does not mean some people are immortal, but the correct AC of this question seems to suggest the otherwise. Is this a bad LR question?

Of all the questions in RC, I ironically have the most difficulty with the first one - the main point/author's purpose question. I almost always can narrow the choices down to two, which are typically factually correct but focus on slightly different points of the passage. For example, in PrepTest 60, there is a passage involving Luis Valdez and the Teatro Campesino. Both C and D focus on Valdez's contributions to the Teatro, but I incorrectly chose D because I believed the information presented in the last paragraph countered a claim made in C. Despite racking my head about this question, I still cannot figure out why D was incorrect, and I certainly wouldn't have this time to devote to a main point question on the real test.

What is the best way to identify and keep track of the main point when reading a passage? I find JY's method of reflecting after every paragraph very helpful, but I find myself struggling to combine these summaries into a main point that the test writers would agree with. This especially occurs when the last paragraph introduces a new idea, or a counterexample, and I'm stuck wondering if the correct answer needs to specifically address this. How can I identify information that is given time in the passage but does not need to be included in the answer choice?

Thanks in advance!

How can I get my timed PrepTests to closer to my Blind Review scores? I'm averaging upper 150s/lower 160s while timed and upper 160s/lower 170s BR and I don't understand the disconnect. Should I just keep taking PTs and try to get comfortable with timing? Or does anyone have any other tips? TIA!!

We woke up today to find that our old name server host was having intermittent problems. Luckily, we already selected a new name server host and were ready to move. We pushed forward the migration to the new name server host immediately. Thankfully this shifted most of the internet traffic to our new host before the old one failed completely.

But, there are still occasionally problems in some areas, and this will gradually get better while everything stabilizes. Access may be intermittent for a couple of days for a few students, particularly in NY USA, Turkey, China, and New Zealand. The situation was worst about 4 hours ago. It's much better now, and should be completely better in a couple of days.

There is still one more phase to the migration - changing the domain registrar - that we won't be able to do for a few days. Theoretically there should be no downtime for this, and I will do everything I can to prevent/minimize downtime.

tldr: Some of you may experience intermittent trouble accessing 7sage.com over the next couple of days, particularly in NY, Turkey, China and New Zealand.

Sorry for the trouble and thank you for your patience!

Does anyone testing around 172-177 want to go over a test or two with me? I average around 173-176. PM me if you are interested. I have taken most of the tests available so we would have to do one of a few tests.
