I'm taking the January LSAT but already applied to all my schools, indicating on the apps that I'll be taking the future January LSAT (so presumably they're holding my application until the Jan. score comes in).
But in the hopefully avoidable event that my January LSAT score is lower than my present score and I decide to cancel it with score preview, will law schools automatically know that I cancelled my Jan. score and proceed with review or will they still hold my application, expecting Jan scores to come in? Am I supposed to update them that I cancelled my score or does LSAC send a report?

I am taking the test in June. PT review starts with PT1
Hi Everyone!
I was wondering any of you guys had opinions as to the difficulty of the new flex tests? It seems like on all previous (non flex tests) there is one harder LR and a less hard LR section (proof in that 7Sage seems to rank one section as 2/5 and the other as 3/5), do the flex tests seem to have a middling difficulty in the one LR section? I haven't taken any of the actual flex tests yet.
Any opinions would be appreciated! I have been using the flex converter on my PT's now and I'm wondering how accurate the scores are.
How far in advance should/can I sign up for the LSAT? Also, how is the format right now? Is it still fully online and all four sections?
Hi I took the April LSAT and got a 161. Much lower than my average Pt's. My last 5 PT average is 168.6 and my last 10 is a 166.8. If anybody wants free tutoring I'm offering it. This is would be my first time tutoring someone and also keep in mind I am still in the process of taking this exam. The reason I am doing this is because it would benefit me as well in explaining topics or AC's to someone. If interested lmk
Please also DM a short paragraph where you are in your study journey/ skills/ weaknesses/ how many PTs you have taken/ if you've finished the CC/ and anything else you'd think is important to state.
I'm really struggling to set up my game boards both quickly and in a manner that is helpful to solve the games. For example, I did PT 34, S4 today and could not for the life of me figure out how to set up the game board. Once I watched the explanation, it made total sense and it took me about :30 to answer each question.
Are there videos/tutorials I'm missing outside of these following lessons?:
Introduction to Logic Games & Sequencing Games
Sequencing Games with a Twist
Introduction to Grouping Games: The In-Out Games
Grouping Games
Grouping Games with a Chart
Grouping and Sequencing Games
Any other resources on learning how to set up game boards quickly and in a manner that actually helps the game would be much appreciated!
looking for people who are in my time zone that's taking the sept test that want to study ?
AC A is correct because even though No creative employes are at the company we can not conclude for that that there is not one creative person in that company that it's what AC A is giving us

Hey everyone. If you are taking the most recent PTs, like 91+ etc, should you review questions you got wrong on the experimental sections? Thanks!
hii! does anyone know how many questions one needs to get right per section to get a 150? 160?
Hi y'all.
So first to start im currently scoring a 1587-161, the score im aiming for is a 161 on my LSAT. LR and RC seem to be my worst sections, and since I've read LR is the most learnable (between LR and RC) I focused on improving my LR score. Im still missing about 8-15 questions in my RC section and most of it has to do with timing. I do much better untimed, and I've timed myself before on my phone and im able to do a RC passage under 35 minutes, im just not sure what's going on when I actually take it timed and can see the time.
Any advice would be helpful as I've tried literally everything I've read. Something to note is that I have horrible test anxiety (to the point where I've thrown up during exams) but unfortunately couldn't get an accommodation on time for the march exam.
Any tips for timing yourself on RC section? RC is always hit or miss for me depending on the difficulty of the passage. Sometimes I have to read sentences a few times to really understand them and then I short myself on time for the other passages leaving me either 1) completely guessing at the end or 2) quickly reading the passage and not fully understanding it therefore, getting questions wrong anyway.
I am filling out the general scholarship application form for Texas Law and they ask "Please state any special, personal, or family circumstances that affect your need for financial support." This is a required short answer question. Any advice for filling out this question? I am not a first generation student or in any sort of unique circumstance, but I also do not have enough money saved for law school and am trying to avoid serious debt.
Hi All,
I am looking through my 7sage syllabus and wanted to see if anyone had advice on how they modified their course/syllabus to learn information as well as do successful drills? (Successful relating to the fact you understood the content and implementation of the coursework.)
I appreciate any potential advice, I plan to take the test August of 2022.
Thank you!
To anyone else going through Prep Tests chronologically, was this question a bother for you as well? It's about two people arguing over whether or not they should modify their 36 hour training shifts for prospective physicians. The answer, B, does not to me feel like it is the sound logical weakener that the question makes it out to be. B seems to be unrelated to the topic unless you make another assumption that the degree of illness a patient receives is a factor in why a doctor needs to make better medical decisions not generally but all the time. While this logic probably flies in an older LSAT, I feel that newer ones would write this question off. However, I still wanted a second opinion considering God JY hasn't put out explanations for the LR sections in this Prep Test.
If anyone just starting the Core Curriculum and wants a study partner to go over it together, please let me know. I am only looking for serious individuals, thank you.
Hi all, looking for some advice. I hit a wall with LG (Grouping) after nearly two months, I am now focusing on LR instead. Should I formulate a study plan that alternates between two sections every other day or should I solely focus on LR for right now? Any advice on how to study would be extremely helpful.
So I am stuck between what to choose on the various LSAT sections on the questions I don't get to. For example, Dave Killoran from PowerScore says to choose "D" 1-20 on LR when in doubt, and "E" on the last 5. JY says to choose "B" when in doubt on 1-20 and "E" on the last 5 for LR.
Note, JY uses data from PREPTEST 58 (Sept 2009 ) onwards, while Dave uses data from Nov 1991. Which one is more reliable?
Here are the sources for both opinions:

Ive been trying to sign up for the candidate referral service and i'm not sure how...I got the option to sign up when I was registering for the LSAT but I didn't do it. Do any of y'all know how to get to the place to sign up? Also, is it worth it to sign up? Im looking at schools like Notre Dame and Georgetown so idk if it would be worth it to sign up.
A question about early decision - if I apply early decision to a law school and then for various factors I decide I am not going to go to law school at all (very complicated explanation for this but I may end up getting a very lucrative job and not go). What would this mean for me? It cant force me to go to the law school I am assuming.
I am seeing online "that your required to attend that particular school or not go to law school at all that year" from a blog on power score. But just curious if anyone has more insight
I have been reviewing LGs and I am over thinking this I think...
You know how sometimes we split out game boards and make as many inferences at the beginning as we can?
When CAN you use those boards to answer questions, and when can you NOT use them (i.e., you would need to draw a new board)?
I am confused b/c sometimes I split out game boards, and the question reads something like "If J is in 4 then where must H be?", so then I look through my boards and find one where J is in 4 to see where H must go. But then sometimes I get those wrong... Because I did not create a new game board for the question...
Could someone please explain this one? Why it's E, not C?

Thank You 7 Sage Community and to my wonderful 7 Sage study buddies !! I am so blessed to be admitted to UC Hastings Law!! It has been a journey as I was a reapplicant. Never give up and keep on going!
I plan to visit UC Hastings Law as I am a newbie to the Bay.
At this stage, should I consider submitting applications to other UC schools? Amongst UC law schools, I only applied to UC Hastings. My goal is to attend an institution in CA, and in-state tuition would be affordable/plus.
Many thanks and good luck everyone! :)
Hello 7 Sagers. I am a super splitter, who is banking on my essays to seal the deal. That being said, in order to write a strong Why essay for these schools, I would love to get in contact with any current students you all know from the following schools: Stanford, Harvard, UChicago, UC Berkley, UPenn, NYU, Columbia, Yale, Duke, UMich. Thank you in advance. #help
