looking for people who want to improve on RC as much as me! We can do an RC and BR together and figure out our weaknesses and share tips on how to improve. My RC fluctuates from -5/6 to -10/12.

Hi, I am currently prepping for the LSAT from abroad. Is there anyone in Europe that would like to set up a study group ? Timezones make it difficult to set up zoom calls with the US. I am taking the 2021 october LSAT and currently scoring in the 150 range. Weekly zoom calls every Monday at 7pm GMT +2. If you are interested please comment below.

I've been awarded the scholarship (all three years) for a local school, which is great! However, I am still waiting on the rest of my applications which are pending. Am I required to answer the email? I think if I did answer, it would be a lame "this is great news, but I don't know if I will be attending your school" response. Also, I am concerned that if I don't answer somehow the offer will be off the table in a month's time (yet, the deposit is due in April, FAFSA February), but I think this is just anxiety talking more than anything. Anyone care to enlighten me, please?

Thank you, all! I was able to achieve my goal score thanks to the content here and this awesome community, so keep working if you are still in the LSAT process! Best of luck.

Looking for clarity re: the curve on this one. From what I can gather (from PowerScore podcast), the curve for April's LSAT is much tougher than how the PrepTests here have been curved.

Am I staring down the barrel of a lower score than all of my PTs?

Hi all,

I am looking to form a study group with people who want to improve on the hardest passages in the test. Prerequisite is scoring at least -6 per section on RC. The plan is to start next week on Friday 9:00 AM to 11:00 AM eastern standardized time to discuss 4 passages that I pick. If you are interested DM me.

Hi all, I took the November LSAT and scored a 161. I'd like to score a 165+ in January. I've PT'ed 168, 169 before so I know it's possible, I'm just not consistent. I am strong in LG and very weak in LR (and to an extent RC). If there's anybody out there weak in LG and strong in LR and RC that would like to study together for January, please let me know. We can help each other out. I'm really serious about getting my score up.

Can someone explain what claim does AC E imply? Is "claim stated earlier" is subsidiary conclusion (1st sentence), or "since dog breeders try to maintain.....) Thank you!

Hello hello,

I was hoping I could find some generous hearts to tutor me for free? I've noticed some posts on the forum and I thought to give it a shot and ask! I'd love to hear from you.

If you are interested I would be more than happy to give more info about me.

Talk soon!

Hi, so in the past two PT's, I've scored 173 and 174 respectively (175 and 179 BR respectively as well). I am wondering what people in this range do to maintain and improve from this point on. Do you continue with drilling sections and reviewing wrong answers? I find that I am spending less time than I used to on studying, and I am wondering if that's a natural result of getting more correct and understanding the test better. Would love any advice from 7Sagers who have been in this situation. Thank you!

I just got an email after taking the FLEX on Nov. 11th saying my writing sample was cancelled because my government I.D. was not clear enough and now I have to take the sample again. Is there any way to contest this so that I do not have to wait extra time to view my score. I wanted to apply to schools if my score was within my desired range and if it was not then I would study and take the January test, but if this processing takes additional time it sort of screws me over. Thanks everyone!

Have honestly found very little info on this. Can anyone explain how it works? Thanks

Hi everyone, any tips for what to focus on for two months of studying?

Say I retake the LSAT writing for November flex, with an approved writing sample already on file from a previous exam -- if, by the time November flex scores are released, submission for the retaken LSAT writing is still pending, could that affect my score release?

I'm told that as long as I have an approved writing sample from the past year I will be able to view subsequent scores without delay, but I was wondering if having a pending writing sample in addition to an approved writing sample could potentially impede that process.

Thank you!

Hi everyone.

I have been studying diligently for the June LSAT for 2 months now. For some reason, this past week I have not been in the right mindset to study at all. The thought of studying sounded dreadful and I had 0 motivation. The test is next weekend I need to get back into the groove so I can reach my goal score. Any tips for getting back into it?

Thank you!

Hi all, i just received my grades from this past semester and am wondering if it is routine to email the schools i have already applied to with my updated GPA? Thanks in advance!

I am aware that it is generally not the best idea to Pass/Fail multiple courses, as it could be frowned upon by law schools. Since many undergrad schools have changed their policies regarding Pass/Fail options, in light of COVID, I have heard a lot of mixed opinions about whether it affects admissions. My university requires that all students take 2 physical education courses, both of which I completed this semester. Essentially everyone takes these courses for credit, opting for a Pass/Fail, or S/U grading option, since they are only one credit hour each and unreasonably difficult to receive an A in. I received a B+ in one class, and a B in the other. These do not bring down my GPA at all, however, if I were to Pass/Fail these classes, my cumulative GPA would increase 0.015 points (0.02 for CAS GPA). I know that the difference between 3.76 and 3.78 seems minuscule, but I am applying to schools in the fall, so this may be my last chance to change my GPA. I only have a week to decide before my transcript is finalized for this semester. Should I Pass/Fail these classes to increase my GPA? Will law schools even care if my transcript shows an "S" for introduction to swim conditioning?

This coming fall, I am going to be applying to law schools. I have recently written my personal statement, and I am ready to begin writing "Why X?" essays and supplemental essays. I have heard it is important to get in contact with alumni, professors, or current students of certain schools to include that you have spoken to them in those supplemental essays. Does anyone have advice on how to reach out to people to get information? Thanks.

Hello All!

I've been working on my statements for the next cycle (2021-2022). I think I have a decent 2-page rough draft for a PS, but I would love to get feedback on it. I'm not that concerned about my grammar/spelling. Rather, I want to make sure that the tone and content are persuasive.

Of course, I'm totally willing to read your PS statement in return!

So if you're interested, just PM me with your email and I'll send it over (and send your PS too if you want me to look at it).

In case it matters, my stats are 3.9X and 17low.

I am wondering if I should write an addendum for my score going from a 148 (Nov 2019) to a 159 (Nov 2020)? I'm not sure.

Also, I changed my major to Graphic Design for a year in college because I wasn't sure about being a lawyer. Should I write about that as well?

How long should each addendum be?

Thanks!

I have been a little all over the board with LR questions, averaging anywhere from -2 to -5. It's my worst section and no matter how much I review past questions I continue to make mistakes. Some seem to be due to timing because on BR I can usually find about half of my mistakes. I think my brain just goes cloudy. Any advice for LR refining in the last few weeks before LSAT/how to get over the slump? Feeling unmotivated #help

I was wondering if anyone has a list of econ and geology passages. I have a hard time parsing through these types of passages and I want to love reading them. If they have a high amount of infer/analogy questions that would be a great bonus too.

Thanks!

Edit: Jazz/blues also

Hello, I am having trouble with questions that lose me in terms of understanding the context. I seem to get bogged down in the details of questions in which I don't understand the context, with things like construction or economy for example, and I end up sinking a lot of time in them. How do you keep your mind focused in situations like this, as well as comprehend what the argument is saying?

Good Afternoon,

I wanted to reach out to any fellow 7sagers in the community about exchanging personal statements for the Yale Personal Statement Essay. I am applying next year but want to complete my personal statements in a timely manner so that later in the future after reading the final piece I can decide whether it something that truly resembles my character and aspirations. If your interested please feel free me to message me as I am always interested in gaining new insight or perspectives with regards to this subject matter.

Regards,
