Are international LSAT exams switching to digital too? I am taking the June LSAT in Korea, so I would like to know if it will be digital or paper.
Hey there,
I've been looking over the LSAC website and noticed their list of schools in Canada that offer a J.D and the list of schools in Australia that offer a J.D as well.
Is it really possible for me as an American to attend a law school in another country, attain a degree and then practice law and live there?? If so, I'm really going to consider it.
Any help would be appreciated, and while I wait for a response I'll see what google has to say haha.
Thanks in advance.
Hi I'm most interested in going to Stanford and although I've contacted the admissions office I haven't been able to get in touch with students. Are there any students or graduates who'd be willing to message? I did try the Facebook alumni page as well to no avail. Thank you!
So I ran into this workshop series that apparently hosts private workshops with T14 schools across the country every year at different locations. By any chance has anyone come across this website before and/or attended one of their workshops? Are they any different from the LSAC forums? If anyone happens to be in the LA/Silicon Valley or Atlanta area, I hope this can be of use!

I keep missing the difficult and very difficult questions on Logical Reasoning. Do you have any tips to help me improve on those?
Hi,
When I was looking at the answer choices for this question, I noticed that answer choice B states something about "actual legal dilemmas". As a result, I rejected answer choice B because, while I noticed the mention of legal dilemmas in general throughout the passage, I did not see any mention of a single "actual" legal dilemma example. However, when looking at other answer explanations, no one seems to mention this as a reason for rejecting answer choice B. Is my perception of what "_actual_legal dilemma" means correct here or am I just fantasizing? I understand why E is right and why A,C,D are wrong. #help
Thanks!

If I plan on taking the LSAT in the Fall, should I take prep tests using the Flex feature or take them normally?
If anyone else is on a waitlist for their ~dream~ school and isn't ready to give up on the 2020 cycle I want to start a study group for the April 25 LSAT. Willing to do online/in-person study group. Scored in the low 160s and hoping to reach 167. If you're interested let me know! Or if there are already similar study groups like this I would like to join one.
Hi everyone! Hope everyone is foing okay during these difficult times and have all they need (or at least teh capacity to get what they need). I also hope you are practicng social distancing and takign advantage of all the streaming services available!
I have decided to take a gap year to really work hard to get the score I need and want before I apply to law school. I am planning to, ideally, register for the September and/or October LSAT(s). I'll have at least 6 months to study for this exam if I use April-May to go through the core curriculum again while doing online remote learning (with a potential pass/fail transcipt recording) and I will ideally start focusing on timed practice (PTs and sections) starting in June until the end of the summer and/or until I take the exam. I will be able to study full-time during the summer and potentially until I take the exam. I have not done any kind of studying since October of last year and none of the studying I have done in the last 6 months was consistent so it is safe to say I am starting from square 1, with some knwoledge of the lsta and curriculum.
I would like to get some thougths on a few things:
Proctors: Three nice ladies. They followed the rules strictly.
Facilities: Mason Hall and some students were in an Angell Hall auditorium
What kind of room:Large classroom with long tables,
How many in the room: more than 40
Desks:Big long tables, more than enough place for you to lay out your materials
Left-handed accommodation:I don't know, I'm not left-handed
Noise levels:Generally quiet, though people upstairs moved their chairs and caused some noise for a few minutes.
Parking: I don't drive
Time elapsed from arrival to test: Less than 30 minutes
Irregularities or mishaps: no
Other comments: Very cold air-conditioning, so remember to bring a jacket; You cannot go to the bathroom once you've checked in
Would you take the test here again? I hope I don't need to take the LSAT again...But yea if I am going to take the Dec one.
Date[s] of Exam[s]:Sep 24 2016

Have you ever wondered how admissions officers review applications? What they pick up on, what they notice, and - maybe - what irks them? Then be sure to tune into this week’s episode as we present a recording of a mock admissions committee review. Two prospective law applicants submitted their resumes and personal statements to 7Sage. Three of our admissions consultants then walked through their thought processes when reviewing the documents - the good, the bad, and the “this confused me.”
Hello! I'm planning to take the LSAT in November for the first time but most likely will not be applying in this application cycle. I'm hopeful that the score I get in November will be strong enough that I will not retake it. Will an older LSAT score count against me in admissions if it is still within the 5 year window? Do law schools prefer a fresh LSAT?

Can anyone explain how B is justified in supporting this hypothesis? I didn't see any relevance between strategies of defence and the two functions of infrared sensor.

#help# For this question, I eliminated all 5 answers, because I think none of them are right. The right answer is E, but I doubted it. Since E only said the period of Bruno's tenure is just matching exactly to the period when the spy was transmitting information. There could be many people or clergies working in the French embassy at that time, how can this choice exclude this possible alternative and support the argument???

I'm waiting to hear back from one law school and recently I just had the attorney general's office decided to join in on a brief that I wrote for a law firm. Is this something that I should update the schools with and let them know? It's a reach school for me. Any advice is greatly appreciated.
Anyone is the Charlotte/Matthews area? I’m part of an online study group but would love to meet some people in person if there’s anyone else out there studying for a July/July test. Doesn’t have to be super regular, even once a month or every other week would be nice just to touch base.
Let me know!
Has anyone taken the LSAT at the Sofitel hotel in Midtown NY? What was your experience like?
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!!!!
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!
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? :)
Hi everyone,
I'm Kanav, from India and I am looking to take the LSAT sometime in October or November.
I scored a 143 in my first diagnostic in April and scored a 161 today. I am aiming for a 170+ but would love to connect with more people and form a study group. We can probably do it on WhatsApp as its convenient and allows for a larger number of participants from anywhere!
Here is the link to the group: https://chat.whatsapp.com/KUIOxVroIXfINnTF9KhiU3
Hello Everyone,
I just finished to core curriculum and I have a very good understanding of all the concepts. This is just for LR but I took an untimed section just to make sure I have a fundamental understanding of all the concepts and got 24/25. I feel like now I should start drilling and doing practice exams. Can anyone share how they built a study plan like this after the CC. Also how did that help you? If you could go back and give some advice to yourself in my shoes what would you say?
Thanks so much for all your help!
I'm looking for a new study partner for the November/January test. I study daily and have a flexible schedule. I'm in the PST time zone. Message me if interested.
I’m based outside the U.S., currently prepping for law school apps (Fall 2025 cycle), and already took my first official test. I’d love to connect more directly with international test takers. If you're also studying for a retake, want to share strategies, or just need mutual accountability comment if you're in!
