If -8 on average correlated to a 170 on the last 20 LG / LR / RC tests, curious to get folks pulse on whether that will shift under the new test. I know it will vary from test to test, but I'm looking for a directional sense.

The reason I ask is that I understand many folks in the 170s went -0 on LG. So, I'm wondering if the test being all LR / RC will mean that maybe on average a -9-10 would be enough to be a 170 under the new test expecting that fewer folks will be able to consistently hit -0 on any section.

Btw, this does assume that the scaled score adjusts with testers performance and the LSAC doesn't decide to just give fewer 170s (which would seem counterintuitive).

I know this is rather speculative, but just curious for thoughts.

Which type of drilling mode for LR is the most accurate/ close to the actual LSAT? The options are:

1)7Sage Virtual Tutor picks

2) Particular tags

3) Tags and PrepTests

4) Incorrect when last taken (PrepTests)

5) Incorrect when last taken (Autobuilder)

Which option should I select? I usually do option one, but I feel like its practice sections always consist mainly of 3-4 question types. For example, I will generate a practice section with made up of mostly Flaw, Parallel, and Method of Reasoning, while no Sufficient Assumption, RRE, MSS, etc., appear at all. Is this what LR sections are like on actual LSATs?

Hi everyone,

I recently signed up for 7Sage and just took my first practice exam. I wanted to see my results without completing the actual blind review, so the blind review results were obviously the same as my practice test results.

Is it recommended to complete the blind review immediately after taking the practice test? To people who do that, does that mean you are essentially taking the same exam for 5+ hours?

Appreciate any insights on the best way to complete the blind review after taking a 3 hour practice test!

Thank you,

RJ

Analytics error

Any idea why the Questions Table section of the Analytics pages says "No LSAT PrepTests scored yet. Score some LSAT PrepTests to see analytics on this page." right below the list of my 29 completed and scored PrepTests?

I am currently three weeks into my study schedule only covering main conclusion and most strongly supported, (excluding the drills included in the study plan) do I start drilling after I'm done the curriculum? Do I start doing PTs after I'm done the curriculum? I have no test date and plan to just go with the wind, when I'm ready Ill take the test, I am in no rush but would like to know how I should attack studying.

Low GPA

Hi. I have a lower undergrad gpa (3.4) and am aiming for top 35-ish range of law schools. I know I need my lsat to be in the high 160s and I think this is doable, but i'm extremely worried about the gpa. I am 2 years out of (a semi-prestigious) school. Any suggestions?

Salaam I was just wondering if there are any Muslims who are planning to take the LSAT this fall and would love to be in a study group together that meets regularly. Message me or comment on this post so I can see how many people are interested and then I can create a groupchat or we can be study buddies.

Edit:

Thank you all for responding! Here is the link to slack I created

PS: I am a sister so if you don't feel comfortable with that, that's okay! I'm just trying to create a muslim community for anyone who is planning on taking the lsat this fall.

Latest Update:

Due to popular demand we decided to move over to discord. Here’s the link for that:

Thanks again for showing interest and inshallah we will get the scores that we want!

so i'm aware there are a few older posts on here about this topic, but was hoping that someone could chime in with new advice...

i'm averaging around 170-173 on blind review pts, and about 92-100% on RC and LR drills with 25 questions/4 passages (sometimes ~88% for the harder ones). however, my scores before blind review tend to hover around 165-67. i know that these are, by no means, bad scores, but i do want a higher score on the actual lsat (sept 2024).

my biggest problem for rc is that i tend to miss essential parts of the passage (that i do not realize are essential until i get to the questions), and end up having to a) go way over time or b) only get to thoroughly read the passage during blind review.

for lr, i panic about the time and end up not selecting an answer i'm confident with until blind review.

i know that comparing timed/untimed scores is one of the main goals of blind review, so i guess i'm also just asking about how to balance time and thoroughness.

i don't know if i need to just keep drilling (though i feel like i'm burning through questions and pts) or if there's some other trick!!

any tips would be appreciated :)

As a child I had an IEP from 3rd grade to 8th grade for reading and writing. 9th grade year I was allowed to take one advance history course, but still had to have follow up meetings to see how I was doing. By 10th grade I was taken off IEP observation and moving forward was no longer require to go to IEP meetings and such. I did receive accommodations though between 3rd and 8th grade, 9th grade they did pull back on that a bit. Would I be allowed to have accommodation even if I was taken off the IEP? I also did not have any accommodations in college. If I am allowed accommodations because of the IEP, would I still have to follow up with a doctor for proof?

Hi all- I seem to be getting more questions wrong in my first section than the following sections regardless of being LR or RC. I noticed a consistent 5 question difference. Is anyone else having a similar issue? Any ideas on how to improve this issue

Hi guys,

I'm applying this upcoming application cycle, and I have a question regarding LORs. Do I need to wait until the applications officially open, to submit my recommender information via the LSAC website? Or can I submit sooner than that? To specify, I mean when you fill out the recommender information and submit it via LSAC using the CAS system. I'm assuming a link gets sent to them where they can submit their letters? I just don't want to send the link too soon and it not work. Is it safer to just submit the recommender information once applications are officially open? I hope this made sense!

Hello.

I am taking the test in September.

I have accommodations and I requested the experimental section to be removed. I was wondering if I need to take the my practice test with or without the experimental section.

Thank you!

Hi everyone, when I registered for the August LSAT I selected Friday as my preferred test date. However, I was just scheduled for work this day. Does anyone know how I can select the saturday day instead? Do I do this when they send out the email to select your day/time? Help please thank you!
