Hi everyone,

When taking timed practice tests, do you always attempt to select/eliminate answer choices with 100% confidence (otherwise flagging questions for Blind Review) as suggested? I feel like that would take away from opportunities where you could identify an answer as 100% correct and move on to the next question, thus saving time.

My speed sucks and I feel like I'd need to roll with the correct answer on questions as soon as I see one in order to see my full potential. I suppose I could flag those answers anyways to look at during Blind Review to validate the other answer choices are incorrect.

I'd love to hear your thoughts here.

Hi! So I have narrowed down my weak spots in LR and want to make the most efficient use of my time before the Nov LSAT.

How would you suggest is the best way to drill LR and blind review my drills?

Also, for anyone writing in Nov, what does your study schedule 3 weeks out look like? And for anyone who has written, what are some study tips leading up to test day you would recommend?

Thank you!!

A lot of the example interview questions I've seen online seem to overlap with some of the content covered in essays (why law? why now? etc). Are there any tips to bring up new information/not sound too redundant?

Could anybody tell which section was repeated (unscored) in these tests? And were you able to identify it?

hey guys, does any one have tips on highlighting with MacBook, on RC passages, and LR premises?

Can someone shares the Flaw List that Nicole Agranonik shares in her class?

Hi,

Does anyone know any reliable LSAT writing sample answer?

Nov was my first LSAT and I thought LSAT flex just skip the writing section...

Thanks,

Rena

What does it mean when it says that a LOR is "In Progress" on LSAC but I know that the person has submitted the letter back? Thanks!

I am looking for someone who would like to study together who lives in Los Angeles. Maybe once a week? I am prepping for the December 2nd test. It will be my first time. My diagnostic June 2007 score was 162, however, I feel like that was partly luck, as I guessed on quite a few questions. I would say my areas of strength are well rounded but speed is my greatest weakness. I think explaining what you know to someone is the best way to improve. I am going with the 3 month 7sage package after I finish the free trial. Let me know if anyone is interested. Thanks!

Hello. I just enrolled in 7Sage because I am having trouble breaking into the 170s. I usually score in the 160s-165s. I usually miss around 6 questions per LR section and 6 per RC section. I have an extremely good understanding of question types, conditional statements, common logical fallacies, etc and don't feel like I need to waste my time with understanding the basics again (I was enrolled in another prep course before this, which is where I learned all of it). However, I seem to get fairly easily tripped up over level 4-5 difficulty questions. How would one recommend studying with 7Sage for someone in my boat? Should I just do drilling exclusively with those difficult questions? Does someone have another approach that helped them break into the 170s that they wouldn't mind sharing? I take my exam for the third time in January of 2025. A recommendation of how I should approach studying for RC sections is also appreciated. Motivation is high but my confidence in breaking into the 170s is diminishing, unfortunately.

In the past, spots would fill up for exams. Is that the same for the Flex? Do spots fill up and then people won't be able to sign up?

I have been using the 7Sage course since August to study for the LSAT, and I am scheduled to take the exam in April. I wanted to know what other's study plan typically looks like? Just need some inspiration on how often I should be taking PT and drilling. I am still not completely done with the curriculum, but any advice is greatly appreciated

I practiced a lot of LG questions and I got a huge improvement on it. However, my timing is terrible.

I want to ask for help on LG timing!

Please drop your advice!

Thank you so much :)

Hey everyone! Currently in the midst of doing this for UVA which requests that all applicants:

"list your significant extracurricular, extra-professional, community and/or other activities in the order of importance to you. Please provide a brief (1) description of each activity, and (2) specify your involvement, (3) length of involvement, (4) special projects, and (5) responsibilities."

I know a couple of other schools ask something similar so UVA isn't the only one that this applies to.

Anyways, curious as to what the optimal strategy here is in terms of quantity vs. quality - probably like a lot of people I joined a TON of organizations but probably only had a serious and sustained involvement in 3-4. On my resume I've limited the number of organizations that I list to just those that I would be confident talking about if anyone were to ask me about it - I mean after all no one is really going to believe that I had a meaningful involvement in 12 different clubs/organizations.. do you think the same principle applies to this type of statement: List and explain everything you did in the handful of clubs and organizations that actually meant something to you or exhaustively list everything you were engaged in and emphasize those organizations that were most important?

Also, been out of school for 3 years now and have not been involved in any extra-professional activities - how bad is that? Not super worried about it but kind of feel like I probably should have been doing SOMETHING lol.

Hi everyone.

I've been studying for about 8 months and finally scored above my goal of 168 to get a 169!! My average is currently at a 166. Does anybody have any recommendations for prep in the 4 weeks left to keep up this momentum and push my average a few points up?

Section wise - LG is about -2/-0, LR is -1/-6 and RC is about -3/-8 I'm currently taking a full PT and a Flex about every week with 2 days of blind review, 2 days of review and 1 day a week off. I try to foolproof and do RC passages on days I review also.

Let me know about any stress management or PT advice. Thanks guys!

Would anyone be willing to review the May 2020 LR with me? There were a few tough questions, and I would appreciate talking with someone about them. I'd prefer to talk with someone who does well in LR.

Hey everyone,

I spent 3 weeks at an international legal academy hosted at a university in Switzerland during my undergrad years. It wasn't any type of program sponsored by my university, and since it was less than a year long I thought I wasn't supposed to send the transcript to LSAC. But some law schools specifically say "Transcripts of postsecondary work completed at a college or university outside the United States or Canada must be submitted through the LSAC Credential Assembly Service (CAS)."

Does anyone have any idea whether these instructions would apply to less than a year of study, or whether LSAC would even accept the transcripts if I sent them?

Does anyone testing around 172-177 want to go over a test or two with me? I average around 173-176. PM me if you are interested. I have taken most of the tests available so we would have to do one of a few tests.

Is the 250 word optional essay a diversity statement?

Hey would anyone like to exchange PS and DS essays? I'm looking for feedback please. If so let me know!!

Hi all,

I started studying for the LSAT about eight months ago, and I started seriously studying/taking PTs in the last four months or so. I have consistently faced the issue of not being confident enough whenever I am on timed sessions. I see myself changing my answers from correct to wrong answers on LR. I am current in the low 160s 161-164 range, and every time I BR, all the correct answers are so obvious. My BR is in the 170s. But whenever, it is under time, either I don't see the correct answers or I just get so fixated on the wrong answer. I also have had problems with except questions. I would think to myself that it is an except question, and then by the time I get to the last answer choice I just forget that I was dealing with the except question. Any advice on mechanisms/strategies on how to improve confidence/preventing careless answers? I have been trying to do some strategies like, pointing at ACs as I read through. My RC could also be better, like around -4. -5 right now. I get to -2 or 0 when I BR for RC. For RC, my main issue is with rushing the last paragraph when I get freaked out.

I was hoping to take the October LSAT, but it seems like I might have to withdraw and shoot for November. Any advice for whether or not I should sit for October? This is mainly also because I have taken it twice already and once canceled/ one in the 160s. Thank you.
