Hey everyone, so I graduated university in May of 2025. I had trouble with the 2026 application cycle because adult life got in the way. Now, I am back at it trying to get everything perfected to reapply this October 2026. I am looking at my portfolio as a whole and I had a minor concern.

My letters of recommendation are from my undergraduate mock trial coach, my lawyer mentor, and one of my uni professors. I was wondering if that is a bad look now that I am a year post-grad? I do not work in the legal field currently, so I have not made any new relevant connections. Do you think my current letters of recommendation good or should I be looking at revamping these too? I wouldn't even know where to look - so any and all advice would be SO APPRECIATED.

Thanks!

So I am just now starting logic games and I am somewhat confused on when I should be doing the full proof method. Is that something that should wait until I start to PT, or should I full proof the problem sets from the CC as well? I am completely new to the games, and as expected I struggled on the first sequencing games. I am still having some trouble understanding if I need to go back and do the game over again or not like the full proof method says to do. If so, am I supposed to full proof every single problem set game that I struggle with initially?

Hello!

I just recently finished the core curriculum and took PT 36 so I can do at least one PT a week until test day (July 23rd). I feel that going through the BR process with PT 36 has helped in some regards, however I feel I need to be drilling problem sets in addition to the BR. Unfortunately, I only have access to the 10 or so PT's provided in the Starter Pack because I cannot afford the more expansive options. I would like to do all of those under timed conditions, so drilling those sections won't work.

So for drilling sections and game/question types, should I just buy some of the earlier PT's (1-35) through 7sage, or are there other resources out there (like "10 Actual, Official LSAT PrepTests") that you guys have used when short on cash?

Thanks for the help!

I’m looking for someone who lives relatively near Rowland heights California who is willing to meet with me at the local library to study at least once a week. Im also willing to commute to Orange County if necessary. I’m scoring in the low 160’s so would like someone scoring in the high 160’s or 170?

I’m specific about the score requirement because I have studied with someone who has the same score as I had and we had the same questions

Hi I have a question for Kevin and JY. I just saw this and I wanted to ask how 7sage is adjusting

BR Groups for LSAT in February are so fetch!! Thank goodness we all found 7Sage instead of... Kaplan!

Note on all groups

Looking for a study buddy to check-in with, review learned material and schedule practice tests as well. I am pretty early in CC but I will be focusing on completing by august. Please respond to post if interested!

Nothing I can do about it now except cry silent tears. The person's first name is missing a letter (so Wayne is now Waye). I'm hoping no one notices.

Lesson to others - CHECK EVERYTHING IN LSAC ACCOUNT. Proofread EVERYWHERE, not just your essays. (sigh)

More snow here on the East Coast, all schools are shut down in NY & NJ... another storm. Another push back. If you're like me pending to hear from some schools in these areas, don't be surprised if we get a delayed response yet again :(

Looking for those interested in studying for the December/February LSAT in the Greater Boston area!

Hi All,

We have a LSAT study group this Saturday Feb. 24 at the Inwood Public Library (4790 Broadway) from 11 AM - 1 PM.

Please let me if you're interested in joining us.

Best.

Jimmy.

Hey guys, I need help with my addendum. I know it should be short, but this is the most concise I was able to make it. There were two situations I wanted to address in my addendum that explains my gpa. I also wanted to explain the discrepancy in my actual gpa vs my lsac gpa. What do you guys think?

Addendum:

During my four years of college, I went through two experiences that negatively affected my academic performance. However, I was able to bounce back from these events and demonstrate my true academic ability in my final semesters.

During my first year at CUNY Queens College, I was running a small online business, and my main focus was to grow my business. At that time I had no plans to continue my education after college and due to that, I put in minimum effort into my academics. After that year, I started to discover my passion for activism and a career in law. Since then, I have taken my studies seriously, which reflects in my improvement after my first year.

In the spring semester of my junior year, I went through a mental low. It was the first time I had an issue with my mental health. I was considering taking that semester off because of my mental state, but I pushed through and did my best. Unfortunately, I received a 2.5 GPA and a D in a class. I asked my professor to give me an F instead, so I can retake the class and I earned a B. My school dropped the F from my GPA, but LSAC counted it in. This is the reason for the discrepancy between my college GPA, 3.25, and my LSAC GPA, 3.17. The spring semester of my junior year is not indicative of the dedication and ability I have towards academics. Later, I got the professional help I needed to overcome this obstacle in my life. Since then, I have demonstrated with my grades and strong work record that I have addressed these issues. I am excited to demonstrate this growth further in law school.

Hi! I was wondering how I could apply my Phi Alpha Delta one month extension to my account?

Admin note: closed.

I’m currently studying inference and must-be-true questions, but I’m encountering a problem that’s making me spend more time on questions than I should. I’m getting the questions right most of the time, but I feel like I confuse myself when I try to diagram the internal lawgic of the stimulus. Has anyone else encountered this issue while studying?

Hi,

I am looking for a study partner to meet twice a week to do PT and BR together until the June LSAT. I took the September and December 2017 LSATs (161 and 160). I had been PTing at 167-172 before the December LSAT, but I got really sick on the test day. June 2018 will be my last shot, so I want to make every effort to get a 170+ on this test.

I work full time, so I am available after 4 p.m. on weekdays or during the weekend. My strongest section is Games (usually -0), so I can help with this section. I am looking for someone with strength in either RC or LR.

Please let me know if you are interested!

Hi all,

So I'm drilling a lot of LR timed sections using early PTs (10-20s) because I've kind of burned through the 40s and 50s repeatedly and I want to save the 60s onwards for full, fresh tests. Other than the two for one question-stimulus questions, I feel like once or so per section there's a misc. question stem (e.g. 13.4.17, 13.2.25).

I was just wondering, how common are these misc. question stems in the newest tests? I've done a few PTs in the 60s and 70s and remember there being fill in the blank questions, but nothing quite like this? I was just wondering whether or not these have made a comeback in any way, or if I should just ignore them.

My second question for high scorers in LR, what is your mindset like while taking a section? Currently, I'm experimenting with the balance between making myself go faster/stay on task, and staying calm enough to process everything yet not go too slow. Do you guys tend to lean in either direction? I know it's personal, but just curious.

Thanks!

Hey does anyone have any links to informative websites discussing the waitlist process and what to do. Also I'm looking for help regarding LOCI; any samples to read from? Thanks.

Proctors: The proctors at the test center were really quiet throughout the test (which I highly appreciated). They gave us a 5 minute warning and enforced all the rules they were told to follow for test day.

Facilities: The building was pretty easy to get around. Right outside the building where the test was at, there was a sign that let you know the LSAT was taking place there. The bathrooms were right across the room where the test was being held. The slight downside was that when we finally got our 15 minute break, there were only 2 stalls in the women's bathroom and so it took a bit for all the girls to get to use the bathroom haha.

What kind of room: The test was in a big, open room. The room felt comfortable in terms of temperature. The lighting was bright as it should be.

How many in the room: I believe 20 people registered to take the test but only 15 showed up. The room could have easily fit 50 people so I was actually really happy that not that many people were there to take the test. Made my experience a whole lot better!

Desks: Desks were long, spacious desks that could fit multiple people. There were about two people placed at each long desk and there was about 3 open seats between me and the other student taking the test. I had a lot of room to spread out my exam materials.

Left-handed accommodation: Since the desks were just long tables, I assume that left-handed people would have no problem with taking the test on that kind of a desk. I am right-handed so I wasn't really paying attention to whether or not it affected any left-handed people.

Noise levels: The room was pretty quiet. I never heard any outside noises. A few people in the room must have had a cold that day because I heard a lot of sniffling as well as people coughing. For the most part, it never really bothered me.

Parking: Parking lot was really close to the hall. It took about a minute to walk to the building. It was also free parking which was an added bonus.

Time elapsed from arrival to test: I got there really early so thankfully I was the first in line. Since there were only 15 people who showed up for the test, checking us all in did not take long. The test started for us at about 9:10 a.m. after instructions.

Irregularities or mishaps: None!

Other comments: All in all, it was a really good test center. Muhlenburg College is only 15 minutes from my house so the drive was pretty quick. Due to my experiences there I would highly recommend that anyone who lives within this area take the test there!

Would you take the test here again? YES!!!!! Except, I am really upset that Muhlenburg is not an available test center location for the June 2016 administration (which I am of course signed up to take). The only time they administer tests at their location are for the December, February, and September/October administrations. This makes me so sad. :( So if anyone knows anything about the Penn State - Lehigh Valley test center, please let me know and post it on here!

Hey All! I'm looking for a study partner to review concepts and go over PTs. I live in Long Island but would be willing to come into the city to meet up or we could talk via Skype. I'm scoring in the high 150's and am shooting for 165+. Taking the LSAT in June. Email me if interested vjgogia@gmail.com

Best,

Vijay

accidentally filled in wrong score manually.

I've been fluctuating anywhere from 158 to 165. I recently scored 165 on test number 60 (the last one I took). I was feeling pretty happy with the improvement I made (diagnostic 154). But I just took the 72 and bombed back down to the 158. I know a lot of people said at first when they hit the 70s, their scores went down. But I honestly can't see why I would have such a massive 7 points down as I really didn't find the fundamentals between the 2 tests that different. Any encouragement or thoughts on this would be helpful. Has anyone seen this happen to them?

Also if you're wondering why I'm skipping around numbers it's because I give my friend a number range and just have her pick one. :)

Hey everyone,

So I went through the CC awhile ago probably a few months ago ( I've been reviewing it since ) and also have a book by the Princeton review that I'm using for RC/LR . -called cracking the lsat

Logic games is def. my area of weakness - I'm trying to work on that right now, but wanted to fool proof Lr and rc as I thought I was getting the hang of it.

I'm focusing more on review than PT's that's for sure -I've probably done about 5/6ish PT.

For LR , I'm getting about 13/14 right on each section and that hasnt changed much even though I'm studying.

Rc- really goes up low of 14, high of 18/19

I'm aiming for 150's /mid 150's (pref). Target - 155

I began with high 130s before 7sage- mid 140's - then high 140's, and I've gotten one with 152 (untimed).

But now my score is sitting in that plateau area and I don't know if it's moving fast enough to consistently get in the 155 area timed and on test day.

I study about 5-6 days a week , for about 5 hours give or take. (starting mid may) started studying for lsat mid jan (but that was when I was working) so I didn't get that much studying done. Right now I'm doing about 1 pt a week, reviewing the pt and then reviewing CC.

Now I'm doing timed PT .

Taking the july lsat, how many PTS should I be doing a week , timed/untimed - all timed from now on ?

After every pt I go through it and look at areas of weakness.

Not sure if it's just anxiety/ mind set OR if I'm missing an important step. How did you all study coming up to the LSAT ?
