Hey,
I am taking the lsat in January and have the first draft of my PS done. Is anyone interested in providing notes/feedback? I will review yours in return.
Thanks!
Hi
I am 98% done with the 7Sage CC. I am ready to tackle the practice tests. Does anyone want to study for them together in Gangnam? We can book a study cafe and use the room. We do not necessarily have to study the same thing
Hi guys, I'm a UCLA alum, 23, looking for a study buddy/buddies in Socal. I'm scoring 155-163, looking to increase my score to high 160s. Ive been studying on and off for a few months now, and I've got the base down pretty well. Will most likely take the LSAT in a few months.
I want to have a buddy so that we can hold one another accountable.
DM me if you're interested.
Hi
I am currently located at S. Korea. I have just finished the 7Sage CC. I am looking to go through the PowerScore series, Loophole and Trainer. I am looking for anyone to Zoom with me as we do these together. We do not necessarily have to study the same thing. I believe we can work flexibly and just study whatever we want to. Would anyone be down?
I was thrown off by this one; even took a few times to read it before I realized what I did wrong. What I failed to recognize is that he seems to be assumed the reason for the complaints is the complainant's difference in political opinion; this has, in fact, not been demonstrated to be true.
I noticed that some law school applications have a diversity question separate of the diversity statement asking you to list any diversity characteristics that you would like to provide. From Washington University's application portal:
Please list any diversity characteristics that you would like to provide (cultural, sexual and/or gender minorities, disabilities, age, religion, immigrants, socio-economic, etc.). Applicants may also attached an optional Diversity Statement to their application as an addendum. (maximum characters 300)
What is the purpose of this short section? Is it to quite literally list out one's diversity characteristics, as opposed to writing a narrative about them? I have a diversity statement prepared, which I plan to upload. Please let me know your thoughts on completing both the short section and diversity statement.
I have an idea for a personal statement structure. I want to introduce 3 events that all taught me the importance of a single virtue. Would it be a bad move to have 3 paragraphs talking on 3 different events?
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!
Anyone want to swap personal statements and peer review???
Hey folks, I'm going to be doing a PT this Saturday at 10 am CST. If you are taking PT's now, feel free to join in. We don't need to be working on the same test either.
Anyone interested?
Could anybody tell which section was repeated (unscored) in these tests? And were you able to identify it?
Hey all! I'm taking the exam this January and know scheduling is supposed to open up tomorrow, I remember in the past there was a glitch where students could book early.
Just wanted to check if there were any updates on that situation, I just want to get my fair chance by booking as soon as it opens!
Hi all,
Neurotic question here: Just submitted a bunch of apps these past couple days. For those of us submitting now, are we at a considerable disadvantage to people who applied in Sept - Nov?
Hi, i live in Wyoming and that is where I plan on applying to. I'm curious to know if there's anyone else on here who is applying to University of Wyoming Law?
Hi Everyone,
Just starting to study brand new. Anyone interested in becoming my study buddy for accountability? I will be studying from 8:00pm to 1am central time, with 30 min break from 10:45PM to 11:15PM. I'm planning on taking the test in June. However, I can also be flexible. Let's do this together!
Hello,
How is everyone preparing for the writing section of the LSAT? I'm taking the January test but I have not looked into the strategies for the writing part.
Hey guys what is the best way to Blind Review a practice exam. Please be detailed about it. I want to know how long also it take you guys on average to BR a full length practice exam ? Thank you so much in advanced
Hi Everyone!
The past few weeks, I have gotten into the habit of taking two practice tests a weekend because I work full time, and it's draining to do practice tests after work. I then spend the time in between (weekdays, mostly) completing the BR. This seemed to be working okay until this last weekend where I realized I got way too overconfident on LR and bombed all four sections I took. Do you guys think it's best to take one test and fully complete the BR before taking the next one? Or do you think the way I am doing it now makes sense?
Thanks for your input and for being a great group of supportive people!
I picked the right answer. But I wanna extract as much as possible from this question.
I noticed a nuance in the question stem "an element of". But how this is different from the ordinary question stem which simply ask what the author's attitude is best expressed?
I feel the correct answer would still be credit nicely even tho the question stem has no "an element of". But, given the sneakiness of the test maker, I believe there is something I missed.
Any insights? Thanks for your time.

Hello everyone! my name is Fatimah and I'm looking for a study buddy.
I have been missing a bunch of these questions lately and I am wondering if there are any tips/patterns that can help me improve? Started to panic as the Jan test approaching
I am not sure if this question is even necessary but I'd like to know what people think.
I am taking the LSAT one more time next week (January). I expect about a 152-154. This would be an improvement from a previous try of a 146 (I took this test in a difficult environment). I secured a hotel room for this exam so I am confident now.
My LSAC GPA is a 3.66. I am not targeting the highest schools but I want to attend this Fall.
I enrolled in a ABA Paralegal Certificate program last year in January because I am interested in it as well as wanting more exposure to law and if law school would be something I wanted to pursue. Within a few short weeks, I knew this was what I wanted. It's been in my mind for many years but I never felt ready to pull the trigger until a few years of work post-college. Anyways... the question...
If I scored a 152 for example, would I be able to write an addendum. The reason I ask is because I began my studies right after the first semester (the program is basically two - 15 credit/5 classes per semesters). Obviously during my studies for the LSAT, I was also doing the full time course work. I completed the certificate last month.
Could I write an addendum for a slightly lower LSAT score due to the conflict of juggling both? I have a solid undergraduate GPA of 3.66 and received a 4.0 GPA for the paralegal certificate. (10 classes, all A grades).
I ask this because honestly, the LSAT is not my strongest attribute, however in a more real world setting involving actual cases, legal research, documentation, case briefs, memorandums, etc I clearly excelled. It was not easy to balance the full course load, the assignments and projects, with the studying overall - though I did it!, but is this a worthy addendum? I believe it is but idk. I know I have a solid foundation with legal information already but idk how addendums work.
Sorry for the long "sob" story but I really would appreciate any advice. I have uploaded the transcript of the certificate classes to the CAS system as well already. Thank you in advance!
This is the third time I select the correct answer and once I check in on the results the answer choices have been changed.
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:
