Hi all!

Hope everyone had a Happy New Year!

I haven't been studying much since I was focused on finding employment after being laid off from COVID, however, I'm happy to say I'll be starting a new job this week, and I feel like I can refocus my attention on the LSAT.

The last time I studied consistently was probably early November. I did a bit here and there throughout November/December, but I would say probably only an hour or two every other week. I feel like I'll be rusty getting back into more of a strict schedule, and like I may have "forgotten" my strategies for LR/LG. Does anyone have any tips for someone who's taken a break for this long and is now returning to LSAT studying again?

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Thank you :)

Hey guys! I'm prepping for the Oct LSAT and I started PTing a few weeks ago. However I'm stuck at the 160-162 rage with no improvement. I feel I'm not being able to learn much from my mistakes and wasting a real opportunity to improve. Can anyone who was in my place at some point but managed to jump to the 170s recommend their review methods? I want to understand how I should proceed with the questions I got wrong even after blind review and learn from them so I can avoid them down the line.

I took the July LSAT Flex yesterday and am now anxiously awaiting score release in two weeks. I am wondering, does anyone know when we have to take the writing portion by? Can I take it after scores are released? Or do I need to take it sometime in the next two weeks?

Hey everyone!

I'm looking for a study buddy and accountability partner for the LSAT living in the NY area.

I can meet weekly on Sundays in person and during the week via Skype or Google Hangout. I live in Nassau County, but I'd be comfortable traveling to Suffolk, Queens, Brooklyn, Manhattan, Statem Island, the Bronx or Westchester.

Anyone interested??? You can send me a PM.

In addition to the June 2018 study group, I'm hoping to find a study buddy who can Skype or meet in person in the NYC area. I'm currently studying full-time, and I would like to discuss questions from PTs (most likely based on the June 2018 Study Group schedule) and/or other PTs/sections that I would like to review in more depth. We could also share general and specific question type strategies. Please send me a PM, if you are interested. We can decide if our score ranges, objectives, and schedules are compatible.

Hello...I have really bad test anxiety and money to spend so I was planning to go through with the January LSAT and see how I do. If I don't do well I am planning to take the February LSAT (already signed up). I score pretty decently on practice exams but my question is...does this look bad to admissions?

I want to re-do all of the Logical Reasoning Problem sets from the curriculum. I believe that much like Logic Games, Re-doing these problem sets can benefit me from a skills standpoint in identifying either why the correct answer is correct and/or why the 4 other answer choices are incorrect for each question type. As I do this, I will take notes of any and all trends I discover that will help me attack each question type quickly and accurately. I am wondering if anyone is also doing this and if so how do you schedule this review in your study schedule? As of now I am considering adapting Pacifico's Logic Games Attack strategy.

Is the scaled scoring for flex style practice tests accurate? I'm finding discrepancies between my tests but can't tell whether they are due to different scales for different PTs or a problem with the scoring algorithm when using the Flex option. I'm trying to get an accurate idea of what my score might be!

I am looking for someone to hold be accountable for the November LSAT and for me to do the same. I am hoping this is someone I can really use for advice, sounding board, and all things LSAT/Law School related. I promise to do the same, no one in my life is preparing for law school so this would be super helpful! Message me! Preferably a girl and my location is Austin, Tx, but I see this being more of an email/text thing.

Hi all - I'm in about month 8 of studying with various breaks and hiatuses along the way. My last section to master is Reading Comp. I can go anywhere from a -1 to a -9, but it's very dependent on timing. How have you all mastered timing for the reading comp section and balanced that with accuracy? It takes me 3-4 minutes to get through the passage. It would be great if I could get through in 2-3 minutes, but even if I tell myself that's my goal it usually doesn't happen and I end up running out of time on the last passage. Any tips would be helpful and thank you in advance!

Hi all, at this point I've submitted all my JD applications for entry into the class of 2024, but I just got (very delayed) feedback on my resume from a former supervisor. The comments were valuable and, when applied, I think do make my resume a bit stronger. Would you recommend that I email law schools this updated/revised resume? Or is there a chance that could reflect poorly on me?

The advice my supervisor gave me was to take out an academic experience and replace it with a professional experience (an investment banking internship at a prestigious firm) that I had originally left out. He also suggested some language and tweaks that buffed up my leadership roles a bit. So it's not fixing mistakes or updating it with new, more recent info. Rather, the edits highlight different experiences from my past that I previously left out. I would love for schools to see this new version, but obviously do not want to appear like I did not properly review my materials the first time around.

Hey everyone, so since my fall semester just came to a close, I am about to start serious LSAT study again. I am pretty stressed about it all though, because for about a year and a half I’ve been studying the CC and full proofing LG. I have gotten to the point where I’m pretty comfortable with LG, but it has been so long since I’ve done any LR or RC. I am just concerned that all of the studying I did previous to fool proofing has been for nothing, since I didn’t keep up with it very well while I was fool proofing. I wanted to start taking PTs over the winter break, but I’m unsure if I’m ready since I haven’t done much LR training while I was foolproofing. So I guess my question is, how important is consistency if I’ve already studied for so long? Should I go ahead and begin practice testing, or should I redo all of the CC on LR and RC, which initially took me about 6 months?

I took the July LSAT and am looking to do the writing section, however when I go to the LSAT Writing section there is not a link to launch for the July LSAT that I took. Is anyone else experiencing this?

Hi. I am taking the LSAT flex in about 3 months from now in June 2021. I am preparing to retake the LSAT again in either October 2021 or November 2021 if I do not score high enough for my first choice law school for which I will be applying there early decision for their part time program.

I am preparing for the LSAT using numerous study methods including 7 Sage. I am located in Brooklyn Heights at NYC. I am looking for a study partner or study partners that can either meet up live in person or just want to do this over Zoom instead.

Reply back with your contact information which is your email address, how are you studying for the LSAT, your current LSAT score, and top choice law school that you want to attend. Thanks!

Hi guys, I am currently a 0L and will be starting law school in fall of 2021. I have been looking into the 7sage law school explained courses and was wondering if anyone can weigh in on the pros and cons of it? Additionally, do you find the courses helpful and what part of the course has been most helpful to you? I know it's a relatively new addition to 7sage so I wanted to get some feedback from actual students before signing up for the whole course so any thoughts would be appreciated. I just want to get my feet wet before diving into law school so I at least have a sense of what I'm getting myself into before 1L starts lolol

Hi!

So I have a question that I could use some advice on. I have been prepping for the January LSAT for a couple months now, and a few weeks ago I was scoring fairly high/where I wanted to. Recently, using more recent practice tests, I have been scoring a little lower and seemingly plateauing around 169. I am not upset with this score of course, but just wonder if I could improve more for a later date. My main question is whether it is a better idea to just take it in January, see what I get, and potentially keep prepping for April or to put January off and just take April instead (February not an option). How does it look to send in multiple LSAT scores to law schools?

Thank you in advance!
