I've become really inconsistent on my PT scores. For the last ~7 PTs I've taken over the course of the summer, I've started to jump between mid-high 160s to 170+ basically every other PT. I've scored above 170 enough times that it feels like those aren't flukes but I also cannot tell what is going wrong on the PTs that are on the lower end. Any advice on being more consistent? :)

I'll be taking the LSAT online next week. I was wondering if anyone with experience could comment on what the room check is like? I'll have to be taking it in my living room, where I have books, a mirror, my kitchen etc. Should I take out books in advance? Not sure what to expect, would appreciate any anecdotes.

Good luck everyone!

Omg I've been wracking my brain trying to think through this question, could really use some help!!

I have trouble understanding why D is correct.

I dismissed it because D claims that the two faulty studies do not support a causal finding, when the premise is based on the two study's correlational finding. The conclusion also specifically clarifies that it only applies under the assumption that "IF night lights cause nearsightedness," so even if the studies are faulty and do not support a causal finding, it doesn't hurt a conclusion that already operates under a world where night lights do cause nearsightedness.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!!!!

Hi everyone, I'm starting my LSAT studying journey, looking around and trying different online platforms that I feel work best. I enjoy 7sage, but feel a lot in the core curriculum is locked, like over half, what packages would you guys recommend worked best for you? Thanks!!!!!!

Whenever I do diagram for a question, I find that I get very enveloped in it and as a result am less likely to notice the "gap" in the stimulus that needs to be connected for sufficient assumptions. Basically, I find diagramming to obscure this assumption recognition process for me. But I am not sure if this is because I am not diagramming correctly, if diagramming becomes less "involved" over time as you do more of it, or if my brain simply interprets the question better by not diagramming?

My process basically is: find assumption, then find the answer choice that connects the two "unconnected" ideas, then just confirm that the necessary and sufficient positioning isn't making some sort of flaw (e.g. mistaking necessary for sufficient or vice versa).

I'm studying for a 167+, so any advice on how to reduce my margin of error for this process would be appreciated! Last PT was a 161 (which was the official Jan LSAT).

Yesterday i took my second PT where my score went up by 1. However, my accuracy for 4 star and 5 star went up (40% and then 8%, respectively). My other percentages were largely the same. Any tips or guidance on just how I ended up at this point and potentially. Is there a way I should study? Did you encounter a similar problem? If so, how did u get out?

Not very happy with my score, but im happy my understanding of the harder questions went up (in this PT there were more 5 and 4 star questions as well) PLS LMK I could use the help

Hi everyone,

I’m consistently scoring around -4 per LR section, and I’ve noticed a frustrating pattern. Two of the questions I miss are usually 4–5 star difficulty so fair enough. But the other two are often 3-star or easier, and when I review them, I immediately see the correct answer and understand exactly why it’s right. I usually just shake my head and wonder how I missed it.

Timing isn’t an issue. I’ve done a lot of timed practice, feel comfortable under time pressure, and usually have time at the end of each section to review any questions I flagged. By the time the section ends, I’m confident in almost every answer I’ve chosen, but I’m still missing these “should’ve got it” questions.

Has anyone else dealt with this? Any strategies or mental habits that helped you tighten up and eliminate these kinds of preventable mistakes?

Appreciate any advice.

Hi, I recently started using 7sage and plan on taking my first official LSAT Jan or Feb next year. I'm currently PTing around the 15highs-16lows, trying to bring it up to the 16mids-16highs before September. I'm interested in finding study partners with similar schedules and PT scores, so please let me know if anyone is interested!

My time zone changes as I am moving around quite a bit over the summer, but I will be in DC starting of Sep if anyone wants to meet in person too!

Hi all!

Just wanted to share this Discord again for anyone that is interested in finding active LSAT Discords.

Though we mainly study in Pacific Time Zone, we welcome everyone interested in contributing to the learning community.

We got a lot of people studying for the upcoming June and August and beyond (but also just starting 7Sage curriculum), so if you are in search of an active group, study buddies, or just have questions about the LSAT, please feel free to join. 💙☺️

So far I am grateful for all the support people give to one another on here, and want to share it again in the hopes that more people can benefit from it.

Let me know if the link isn't working (🥲 last time it expired or something)

Thank you!

If anyone wants to review PT 68 with me tomorrow (Friday) over google hangout/skype. private message me and we can get started. Logical reasoning, both sections.

Currently planning on taking the test in September, November, and January.

Drop your contact in the comment and I'll add u!

What are your best tips/advice for the writing portion of the LSAT? How have you been/did you prepare for this?

I am looking for flashcard sets I can find on quizlet that cover the concepts in each section (Foundation, LR, and RC). Key words to look for, common question stems for each question type, common right and wrong answers for each question type etc. Just things to help improve accuracy and strategy!

Hi all,

I'm looking for accountability/study buddies where we can Zoom/Call about 3 times a week to review questions and strategies for drills/practice tests that we take. I'm taking the October LSAT and am aiming for a score in the high 160's. Currently RC is my weakest section.

Here's a discord link if anyone would like to join: https://discord.gg/seKV9rjCmt

Hey! If you're in Chicago and planning to take the August/September '25 LSAT, please message me! I am in desperate need of an accountability partner. I live off the blue line but am flexible. We can meet up at a CPL location.

Hello everyone. I really need some last minute help with my Reading Section, as I take the test in August. I have been averaging -1 to -3 on my LR, however, I have been averaging around -7 to -10 on my RC. I am averaging about a 165-168, but would love to reach a 170. I am looking for a 1 on 1 tutor who can answer my questions and explain to me what I may be doing wrong in my approach for RC. I would love to spend around 50-115 dollars per hour with the tutor. I have tried Varsity Tutors but they were veryyyyy disappointing. Does anyone know any 175+ LSAT tutors that could help me?

Hi everyone,

I've put together a Discord for anyone who considers themselves a "Non-Traditional" law school applicant. Please just send me a quick message if you'd like an invite link!

I've messaged everyone who responded to my previous post as well, so be sure to check your inbox for that link!

The server is intended to give LSAT study accountability, general support, and resources/help for one another. Again, feel free to send me a private message and I'll send you an invite link!

I've been going through the PT'S sequentially since pt 36. Got my best score on the last one I took which was pt64 and then yesterday i took pt 65. What was that!? Two 5star rc passages, extremely unusual lr questions, it was a nightmare. Did anyone else take this pt and halfway through felt like they've never taken a pt before?

Hey!

For the life of me, I cannot understand the level 5 difficulty questions for PSA. I can get the lower and medium difficulty questions correct, but it seems like the higher difficulty just isn't clicking. Does anyone have any tips or mental strategies for how they approach difficult PSA questions? I think I'm getting lost in the answers (and I believe my most common mistake is confusing sufficiency/necessity language even though I'll have it diagrammed properly!!)

Hey guys, I took the June LSAT and I didn't score what I wanted. Im taking it again in August and feel more prepared. I was wondering if anyone had any input if I should sign up for the September one or if I should wait till the October one? HELP!

Hello Everyone, I recently signed up to take the LSAT in November this year. I am confused though because it doesn't tell me a specific day to take the test or a time. I just generalizes it and I am very confused, trying to figure it out. Also I noticed on the LSAC website they offer this thing called CAS, is this needed? I was confused on what that was as well because financing everything by myself is VERY expensive for the time being.

TLDR: When do they release the test days? Do I have to check once a week or something to sign up again? And is the CAS required for Law School Applications.

how do you guys do MBT and MSS conditional logic questions quickly / in a timely manner? When I am doing a timed run sometimes the language of the stim feels like gibberish to me so that doesn't help because I'm re-reading it several times. Then I also feel like diagramming the whole thing takes too much time. From there I'm already tempted to skip it. However, in BR, the answer feels way more obvious once I understand the logic at play -- it just takes too long to grasp the logic at play. If anyone feels the same as me, how did you 1. read the stimulis without freaking out / decipher it without needing to read it a million times 2. do you diagram it ? or do the inferences stand out in your head quite quickly? 3. Was it a matter of just drilling these questions more and then you got the hang of it ?

Hello all!

I’m starting a small LSAT sprint group for those of us scoring 160+ and aiming toward 175–180.

The idea is to have a consistent weekly rhythm: we’ll set a few specific goals, check in mid-week, and reflect at the end. There’s also a short Monday Zoom call to wrap one sprint and start the next.

A little about me: I tutor part-time and slowly working my way up through practice tests. I’m currently scoring in the high 170s on PTs, and my last official score is 173. I’m aiming for 180 and wanted to build a consistent study community of like-minded learners to keep momentum, and hopefully to meet others who are pushing for the same thing!

This is for people who are committed and willing to show up. If that’s you, DM me for the invite. Comments won’t get a response — just want to make sure folks are actually reading before joining :)

Good luck to everyone studying!

I just took the June LSAT but I haven't done the essay yet, so I wrote a practice one under timed conditions. I'm a strong writer & editor but I have been out of college for a year and a little rusty on writing these argumentative style essays. I'm going to take the essay in the next couple days, but does anyone want to compare practice essays and give each other a little feedback? I took argumentative essay #2 on LawHub, but I'm open to other topics ofc
