Does anyone know when the October 2019 International Score release date is? The Exam was on October 13.

Hi, could someone please explain this question to me? I didn't understand the video.

https://classic.7sage.com/lsat_explanations/lsat-32-section-1-question-16/

.

I was self-doubting after the test and had to distract myself. I've read somewhere that not only the "curve" is pre-calculated based on previous experimental sections, test-takers are actually compared with others in their score band, because a question that is "very difficult (5/5)" for sub-160 test-takers might be an "average(3/5)" for 170 test-takers.

I'm making an inference on this. Under extreme circumstance, if one section is SOO difficult that only genius (1%) of the population can perform well. Then would it result in a curve that looks like this?

170: -10

160: -40

Sorry this has nothing to do with actual test, just food for thought out of curiosity.

Also, flowers for all who sit for September test. 🌸🌼

And some kittens/doggies. 🐱🐕

Hey guys, I have been studying for 4-5 months now and I started with a 136 pt score. I did see improvement with 7 sage and got my highest score to a 147. My goal is a 150-155. However, when I take pts recently my score is not really improving. it has been 145, 138, 147, 139, 140, 139 in 2-week increments. I also notice that especially in Rc i don't get to finish all the passages on time and have to guess. What is some advice or things you did to help with score improvement? I plan to take the LSAT in august, so I have 2-3 months to get 10 points +

Hey All!

This may be a long shot, but if there is anyone in Kuala Lumpur studying for the LSAT and would like to join forces please let me know.

Proctors: The main test administrator and proctors were hires by LSAC for administering the test at this site. They were no affiliated with the law school. One of the proctors who was sort of an assistant wasn't very competent. She was asked to read the instructions before the start of the section from the test booklet like proctors are supposed to do and she had trouble reading basic english sentences and couldn't pronounce certain words. She also interrupted me just as the test began about something related to seating, which affected me during the section. If she had any questions, she should have finished them before the section began. Other than that, proctors were typically quiet as the test was going on.

Facilities: Restrooms are located on the same floor as the test rooms. They weren't crowded during the break.

What kind of room: The test was held in several small rooms. Each room had about 20 desks and for my test administration they seated 1 person on each desk. But for more recent test administrations, they seem to have taken to seating 2 people per desk which can make it very crowded. I would suggest any taking there first call the JFKU law school and ask about seating only 1 per desk. This crowded seating was the reason I didn't retake at the same location.

How many in the room: About 20/room when I took. For later tests, about 40/room.

Desks: About 4-5ft long desk.

Left-handed accommodation:i am not lefty so don't know. My guess is that based on the type of desks the rooms had, it shouldn't make a difference.

Noise levels: Very quiet.

Parking: Plenty of free parking right outside the building.

Time elapsed from arrival to test: About 1 hour.

Irregularities or mishaps: I had the proctor interrupt me just as I was beginning the test, which threw me off for the rest of section and test. During later administrations during Oct 2015, I heard the proctors had trouble arranging rooms, and so they overcrowded test takers on desks.

Other comments: Fine test center except for bad seating and poor proctoring.

Would you take the test here again? Not unless they can fix the seating so there is only 1 person /desk. 2/desk is took crowded and distracting.

Date[s] of Exam[s]: June 2014

Hi,

Can anyone help explain why the answer here is E instead of C? I understand why A,B, and D are wrong, but I just don't understand why C is wrong. I felt the main idea of the passage was that we need to reform the way we rehabilitate child criminals, which seemed to me to be a form of cooperation between criminologists and law enforcement (since creating such policy would be a form of law enforcement finally acting on the criminologists' findings).

Any #help would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Hey Guys,

I am studying to retake the LSAT in June 2014. As a recent graduate from college I'm realizing that studying has become a solitary activity for me on my own. So if there's anyone in the area that wants to practice together or have some study support please contact me!

Hello, I originally posted this in the comments under the question but the more I look at it I'm second guessing if my reasoning is correct. I've pasted it here with a couple alterations because I accidentally put "understand" instead of "know" in the other post. It got me to the correct answer but could someone please confirm if my reasoning is correct and if not, where I went wrong. Thank you.

59.3.19

Premises:

A := Understanding a word

B := Knowing its dictionary definition

C := Understanding the words that occur in the definition

(A →B) → (A → C)

Premises: we have an instance of people (e.g., babies) who don’t understand the words that occur in the definition.

==> C

Necessary failed, contrapose back.

==> (A →B)

which is equivalent to

A and B

In other words, it could be the case that people (e.g., babies) understand the words they’re saying even if they don’t know the word's dictionary definition.

Which matches AC (E).

So around July I will be done with the CC, and I plan on testing in October. I also know that I may not finish every PT that is available right now, but which PT would you recommend me to start from? should I start with the older PT's or just the newer ones (141-158)?

Thank you in advance!

Has anyone taken the LSAT in Rome at this testing center? Looking for feedback.

Hi Everyone! I am located in Saint Petersburg, FL which is in Pinellas County and would love to meet up and create a study group. I have a car as well so I can travel if you're not in my immediate area. I plan on possibly doing the November LSAT for the first time. I just started studying so I will likely be up for studying after that as well. Please let me know! Comment or send me a chat!

I'm trying to figure out if my reasoning for eliminating all of the incorrect answer choices is sound. If you have time, or have done the question already, it'd be great to hear how you chose between choices B and E.

Hi Everyone!

Head’s up: later this month, LSAC is doing a system-wide upgrade that will affect some of their online services. It will begin at 5 p.m. ET on Friday, December 22, and is expected to end at around 5 p.m. ET on Saturday, December 23. During these 24 hours, certain LSAC services, including candidates’ online accounts on LSAC.org and LawReady, will be offline.

During this time, people will be unable to complete transactions such as registering for a future LSAT, submitting fee waivers or accommodation requests, accessing their accounts, or submitting applications.

Services on LawHub.org will remain available during the upgrade window. Scheduling for the January 2024 LSAT will continue through Prometric. However, information on candidate accounts will not be updated until the upgrade is completed.

If you have any further questions, you can contact LSAC via https://lsac.zendesk.com/, email them at lsacinfo@lsac.org, or call them at 215.968.1001.

This question doesn't have an explanation, so I wanted to see if anyone could back up my reasoning.

The flaw of the question stem is that it confuses necessary conditions for sufficient ones. Correctly formatting the script as well as having it be submitted by an agent is necessary for the script to not be discarded, but it does not guarantee that it won't be. There could be another reason, such as that it arrived too late, that it would be discarded.

A is not the correct choice because it is a valid argument.

B is not correct because it's a different flaw. It takes for granted that Jon is a good cook. You can also argue that it's flawed in that the necessary condition "delicious" is subjective.

C is correct, although its a bit tricky. It confuses sufficient conditions for necessary ones. Exercising daily or quitting smoking will improve Bob's health, but he doesn't need to do either one to improve his fitness level. He could lose weight by dieting for example. I think this is what makes this question so difficult (5 circles).

D is incorrect because it's a different flaw. It confuses the sufficient conditions for one argument with another. A car not having a permit or having an expired one are sufficient conditions for police being allowed to ticket. The Police being allowed to ticket does not mean they will ticket; They could give you a warning or maybe do nothing.

E is incorrect because its a different flaw. It takes for granted that because a dog can do advanced tricks it will respond correctly to basic commands. It's possible that a dog could do a backflip but would refuse to sit.

let me know if my reasoning is accurate - thanks!

when it asks *which one of the following could be all of the solos that are traditional pieces?* does this mean it asks a scenario in a particular sub game board or all possible places in all sub game boards? how do they ask differently if it asks about possible spaces one can be put in all sub game board??

Does anyone know of any admissions group chats? I know LSD has chatrooms but I was thinking more along the lines of group chats or discords for people applying fall '24. I don't know many pre-law people, just attorneys from work, as I am in the workforce and am first-gen. If anyone wants an accountability partner for the admissions process please hmu! I've got a 164 and am going to be applying to several schools around t50, mostly in the midwest. Thanks!

I am absolutely freaking out. I just applied to my top four schools, and I selected "No" to all of the Character & Fitness questions for each school. At my college, you received an "Academic Warning" whenever you failed a mid-term since your average in the course was now below passing. I received a couple of these warnings my freshman year, but I did well on the remaining assessments and passed the courses. Hence, I forgot all about these warnings and failed to check the appropriate box on the law school applications/provide the appropriate addenda. Has anyone seen this situation before? Would there be anyway for me to amend this mistake while my applications are still pending?

Thank you all so much!!!!!

I'm confused as to why the answer can't be C.

If supply goes down, and halibut is NOT replaced by other fish, then that means that supply has gone down, and even if demand stays the same the price will go up according to the law of supply and demand. There is nothing to suggest that demand will decrease in this scenario.

I'm wondering if I should upgrade to Ultimate+. Here's my dilemma:

I have PDF's of each question type (with questions from PT 1-35) and they're arranged by difficulty from a previous tutor which is super convenient. The only thing is that I find it extremely helpful to be able to go back and watch J.Y's videos after BR or if I'm having difficulty with a question. Also, I find it hard to organize/make my own 'problem sets'. I feel like I just have multiple running lists of problem types I should be doing with different difficulties but have trouble keeping track of them. I should also mention that I have every PT from 39+ available as well for when I start PTing.

Is it worth it to spend the extra money to upgrade to Ultimate+ given my circumstances?

If I were to upgrade to Ultimate+, how should I go about doing the problem sets? Do you do all of them after each lesson or save the harder ones for later/review?
