Hi,

Is there a way to make drills based off of questions you got wrong in previous drills? I only saw the option to compile questions you got wrong during previous practice tests, not drills themselves.

Thanks.

Hey Everyone!

LSAC has provided updates on the following:

◉Limits on Repeating the LSAT

LSAC has introduced a new test-taking limit policy starting in August 2023. This change, however, will only impact a small group—less than 1% of all LSAT takers. Under this new policy, you can take the LSAT five times in the current score reporting period (i.e., since June 2018) and up to seven times over a lifetime.

For more details, you can visit the LSAC page here: Limits on Repeating the Test

◉LSAT Test Taking Schedule

As you may know, there were difficulties with remote proctoring during the first weekend of the August LSAT. To make up for it, LSAC added an extra testing day for the September LSAT. They've also introduced two additional testing dates each for both October and November this year. These additions won't impact the score release.

For more details, you can visit the LSAC page here: Upcoming LSAT Dates

I'm really thrown by this one. My thought process: a country with a stable economy is less likely to experience inflation or deflation. That is the assumption the author relies on. I thought (A) best reflected that, but the answer choice is (C), which I am struggling to understand. Why is the production of goods or services (which inflation/deflation depends on according to the author) specifically apart of the assumption?

PLEASE HELP

Hey guys, i'm wondering how people are planning on balancing their LSAT studying with prepping for applications. For context, I took the June test and got a 160, im hoping to take again in October to boost that as much as possible then have my application done in early November. Alot of things ive read and heard say not to wait until after your score to start apps cause they tend to take longer than you think to get through. Also, I am working full time so I really need to plan a course of action to not over commit myself. Any advice on how yall are metering your application essays while still grinding for the LSAT?

Hi all.

I need some advice with my study plan.

I have recently finished CC after 5 months of studying; I was only able to study 3 hours daily since I work full time.

Currently I manage to do the 1 or 2 PT(s) per week;

I understand that I would need to focus on Pting with more later version as nearing the actual Test date.

But I wonder if it makes much change(ie. starting from old Pts vs. skip old Pts, use it only for drilling and do newer Pts) at this stage because I presume that whether those PTs are old or new, they are testing the same fundamentals/principles.

Any suggestions?

I would appreciate any advice/comment.

Hey all, I'm in an odd spot with reccommendation letters. I have an old military supervisor and an advisor at my current undergrad insitution that have written really solid letters, but I just cannot seem to get one from a professor. My whole time in undergrad, I've never had the opportunity to take two classes from the same professor. Also, the professors I've gotten to know and who I could ask have a policy aginst writing a letter for anyone unless they've taken two or more of their classes. Law schools really emphasize that applicants should get a letter from a professor if they're still in undergrad, but I'm pretty much stuck without one. Is this something I could write an addendum to explain, or would that make the situation look even worse?

hello all! has anyone had the chance to study CC V1 and CC V2 and recommend one more than other? I have taken the LSAT before but I’m studying to take it again so since I am familiar with the test, I was leaning towards V2 to refresh my mind but also want the most detailed. Any suggestions?

Hi!

I am having some trouble at the start of PT to get my head into the test.

Is there any tactics you guys use to get you started? I do warm up with 15q of LR and 2 games.

I feel like its my anxiety mostly that kinda eats me up at the beginning of the test.

For background, I've taken the LSAT twice and scored low 160's both times (albeit my second score was significantly lower than my PT averages). For the last 10 PTs, my average score is 169, peaking at a 175. My average performances are -3.4, -2.3, and -5 in LR, LG, and RC respectively.

I know what I need to do to better my LR and LG scores and I've gotten -0 on these sections before. The issue is I have no idea how to approach RC. My best was a -2 and I don't think I can reach -0 with my current tactics. I've gone through all the curriculum and am stuck because I feel like the only way I can improve in RC is by reading faster and being more attentive. I always aim for the big picture and the low resolution summaries slow me down considerably.

If you have a strategy for RC, even if it is unique, I would love to hear it! This is especially true if you have a strategy/strategies for specific question types on RC since I would love a more focused approach.

Hi everyone! A few of us have planned dates to write PT'S together and then review as a group. We've selected to do Wednesdays, more specifically July 19th and July 26th. If successful we will plan more going forward.

We are open to planning more, or having additional silent study meets throughout the week.

Most of us are studying for the September writing date!

If you'd like to join our group, let me know! :)

I recently took the June Lsat, I consistently scored between 160-163 on the four or five consecutive practice exams I took prior to my test. I ended up getting a 156 on the actual exam. I dont know if this drop may have been due to nerves (I had technical issues the day of my exam and was not able to start for an hour after my shceduled time and this had me very anxious and stressed). I took all PTs under real testing and time conditions. I wish there were a way to review my official LSAT and see which questions I missed etc. I am already registered for the August exam, this time at a testing center, and I'm hoping for a 160+. Any tips on what to do this time around? Im scared to not study effectively and just waste my time, I feel like I've done every LSAT question there is. Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

Hi All,

I am trying to aim at the low 160s and I seem to get a handful of 2/3 LR Questions wrong in my PTs. I am drilling the first 15 LR Qs (15 min for 15 Qs) and wondering if yall have tips of mastering these "easier" Questions compared to 4/5 Star LR ones.
