Remote Study Partner

Hello! I'm preparing to take the June LSAT and wanted to find someone to study with. I'm hoping we can exchange ideas, help one another out with understanding some of the challenging concepts. The LSAT gets demotivating so being able to learn new techniques or ideas would be great to avoid that feeling!!

If anyone is interested please let me know, we can create a plan which works for us :)

Edit: I created a GroupMe! For anyone who would like to join!! just send me a message and i'll share the link!

Can't find LG on Drills page

Hi! I saw that the Drills and PT pages have been updated with the old/new PT to account for the new LSAT format, but now I can't find the LG drills. Does anyone know where I can find them?

Has anyone tried out the new drill set feature on lawhub? It looks like there is new material, not entirely sure though I could be wrong and was wondering if anyone who has tried it felt like the information is new.

I've finished the core curriculum in its entirety, and now I'm wondering how I should be splitting up my time while drilling.

I'm aiming to take the June LSAT (the last current exam format that's offered for International test takers for this year) and so I only have about 2 months left.

I'm wondering how best to split my time amongst the different sections. While of course I want to dedicate the majority of time to my weakest areas, I also don't want to just completely bench the other sections.

Any advice how to best schedule studying, so that I maintain a solid exposure to each section?

Thanks!

I'm studying while working full-time. I take the train to work and it's about 35 minutes both ways. Any recommendations on what I can do during this time?

I'm usually standing on a full train so writing anything is out of the question, but anything I could read or listen to that could help?

Studying and working 9-5

I work 9-5 in person tech job and have definitely not been putting in enough time with my studies. How do you guys go about working in-person, full-time, roles whilst studying? What does your study schedule look like?

They did release 'new' PTs that turned out to be reused versions of the old PTs, without the LG sections. I'm planning to take lsat before August so I'm mainly looking for 'actual' new PTs after the 2020s, there must be a pretty sizeable amount they've saved up so far + these old PTs have LG sections in them which probably are going to be abandoned altogether with the new system. Does anyone think they'll be releasing them anytime soon?

After completing the Foundation lessons, and now doing the LR lessons, I feel the Foundation Lessons were grueling and a bit boring to get through, but now that I'm doing LR, I'm glad I went through the Foundations.

I'm having fun learning about LR and applying the knowledge from the Foundation lessons.

Anyone else feel this way?

I have come to the unfortunate realisation that inidicating a future LSAT administration will render my application as "incomplete" by law schools, setting me behind on deadlines. I would like for law schools considering my application this year to use my preexisting LSAT score, and I am signed up for a later test dates in case I don't get favorable decisions and I apply next year with a better score. Is the best decision going forward for me to withdraw from future registrations? Will this make law schools consider my application as is? Thanks guys.

June LSAT

I know everyone always says that the recommended studying time is different for everyone but, I really feel like I should take the June LSAT with the games because they are the most learnable section. My first PT from 7sage was a 144 which I know is low, however would it be completely out of the realm to be able to score a 160 on the June test(pending me studying). Would 2 months be enough time for an increase like this? I really want to get into Michigan State with a good scholarship and their average is a 159.

If possible, how many hours should I be putting in a week to increase my chances?

Nontraditional Moms?

I graduated with my BA in 2016, my MS in 2018 and seeking admission for Fall 2025.. I am a mother of 2 at 30 years old. My oldest 2, youngest 10 months. Anyone else?

I've been taking my last few LSAT prep tests under the Modern version because I was curious to see what it was like, and I did not see much change in my performance compared to the legacy version.

Is there any advantages/disadvantages to testing in one format vs the other?

Hey, y'all! Question - I've been working as a legal assistant at a personal injury law firm for the last two years. Long story short, I'm taking a gap year between graduating in May and applying for law school and am looking for new opportunities to expand my knowledge in the town I'm currently in. I've submitted a few applications here and there and didn't realize for one that it was for a family law firm. My question is: Does having experience with different types of law on your resume help with admissions or success in law school in general? Advice? Thanks!

June or August LSAT

Hi everyone, I've been faced with a dilemma and I wanted to hear everyones opinions on my situation. I started my LSAT journey on 7Sage back in December while studying as a full-time student and working. I worked through the Logical Reasoning curriculum up to this point and just started working on the Logic Games curriculum. It's now March 18th and I'm wondering if there are enough weeks for me to master the games section in order to take the June LSAT. Also, I realize I'd have to learn the Reading Comprehension curriculum and start drilling and taking prep tests.

Some of my friends took the LSAT this spring (with the logic games) and told me that I should shoot for the June LSAT. Reason being they thought the games were easy to master and got most of them right to improve their scores. I understand my studies will be different from them, but I want to make sure I'm not missing out on a golden opportunity when the games are still available. A better question to ask you all is, how long did it take for you to understand the games?

Furthermore, I plan on applying in the fall by the end of October. If I were to decide to take the August LSAT would I be pushing back my application timeline for most schools? What if I needed to take a couple more LSAT's for the score I want?

Any advice or personal thoughts on this would be really appreciated. Thank you!

A lot of what we study on the LSAT can feel a bit abstract, esoteric, or even pointless sometimes. That can make studying frustrating and difficult to connect with our real objective: law school. It always helps me to know that things I'm learning aren't completely useless, so maybe some of you will be interested in this case the Supreme Court granted cert on. (Granting cert just means they agreed to hear it. No one will explain that to you in school, but they will just assume you understand. Now you know!) Tens of thousands of people have been sentenced under the provision in question, and their lives will be dramatically impacted by the Court's decision. So these sorts of things matter. A lot. Great opportunity to review the exclusive "or."

Advice

Hi everyone, this is my first time doing this. I am taking the lsat in April ( and June) and I was wondering for these last couple of weeks is there any tips/advice for studying for any of the sections? What helps you all study, how do you find time studying while working and going to school? If anyone answers I would really appericate you.

Hi folks - I just took the November Flex. For reference, I took my first LSAT-Flex in October and did well. I went into November thinking I could do better...While the November test was fairly standard, perhaps even easier than October, just as I began to take the test, Biden was called (!), and for the entire test all I heard were people screaming and cars honking. I also had zero adrenaline, zero nerves. I felt like my body was so relieved from the election being called that I just crashed just as the test started. 1) Do you think LSAC would allow me to retake the test if I filed a complaint (I'm assuming ProctorU has the video recording of all the noise); 2) Has anyone taken an LSAT with zero adrenaline and done well? Legit I was so calm/exhausted/out of it that I feel like I lacked the edge necessary to execute the score I wanted. Also, if I don't cancel my score, is it bad for admissions to see let's say a 170 and then a 160? Thank you!
