I have asked a former professor for a letter of recommendation and he accepted to write it. I want to send him a package including all the relevant materials for the application. I do not have my personal statement yet, but I thought of writing a reflection notes on what I learned from his class, and how that is going to help me in law school. I couldn't find more information on this, but is this a good idea? Will the notes help the professor in any way while writing the LOR?

With this question, i was trying to find the conclusion to break down this question and I had a difficult time with what the answer should look like ' and what kind of support would be the correct answer.

Hi , I am currently signed up for the October Lsat, but I am feeling like I should change it to November just to try and bring my score up a little bit more, but the registration for November is closed, so does that mean I could not change my test date to that test month? I emailed LSAC to see, but I do not want to try until I get a definite answer because then I will not take the LSAT until January.

How do I see what my GPA is on LSAC? I heard that there can be discrepancy between your GPA from your degree granting institution's transcript and any other institutions' transcripts if you took a course there during high school.

Hi guys I have been doing WAJ for the past couple of weeks. The way I did it was firstly copy&paste screenshot into my ipad notebook and then write explanations on it. Then I switched to make a drill of every question I missed or had doubt with and download that as a pdf. to write notes on. While I found this process to be smooth, I would rarely go back to these individual pdfs because the amount is getting big.

I wonder if I could somehow find a way to incorporate these notes into one document? I am thinking about perhaps doing an excel, but because I would like the stimulus included, I don't wanna do any extra, unnecessary work by somehow copy&pasting or screenshooting into excel; I already don't have enough time to actually practice because I have been spending so much time on BRing and reviewing wrong questions.

Thanks!

Hi - trying to look through previous discussions / on the LSAT website but couldn't find a clear answer. I have blank paper but it's yellow. Is that okay, or does the blank paper have to be white? Thanks in advance!

Hi! I'm currently reliably able to get Strengthening and Weakening questions correct when they are marked as Easiest/Easier/Medium level questions, but I seem to be only getting half of any given set of Harder/Hardest level Strengthening and Weakening questions. I also have the same problem with Flaw questions with about the same ratio of accuracy for the same difficulty levels.

Is there any different strategy I can adopt for sake of improvement? I really think nailing these types of questions in particular along with Flaw questions seems to be the key for me to getting a -3 or less on LR from my current score analytics, and from there my chances at a 170+ would greatly improve.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Hi everyone,

This is my 2nd week of studying for the February test and I just feel like nothing is clicking. Once it gets a bit complicated, my brain just goes haywire. I've taken a diagnostic test and got 141 :( But the thing is...my brain is telling me this test shouldn't be hard to understand 😪

I'm going through sage's syllabus and have done some drills but I am just overwhelmed by everything that is offered and do not know what works and doesn't work. I would watch the explanation videos and understand it but then it goes out the field once I start practicing on my own. I work full time so I try to study at least 2-3 hours for at least 6 days of the week to prevent burnout but I just don't know what I'm doing wrong.

Do any of you have tips for me? Please help. I've considered getting a 7sage tutor but don't know if that will help if I've only been studying for 1 full week.

Answer is C: I actually eliminated C pretty quickly on the grounds that the answer choice alleges the ethical principle does not help the journalist, whereas Anita states that the guidance is inadequate. If something is inadequate, I take that to mean it is insufficient for achieving a purpose. However, something can be inadequate but still help in a situation. If I say "the water from one fire hose is inadequate for putting out the forest fire," it doesn't mean that the water from the one fire hose does not help in extinguishing the fire. It most definitely helps, but is insufficient to achieve that purpose.

Can someone tell me why answer choice C is correct? I ended up eliminating every answer choice in this question and just guessed since I was stumped.

Deleted the stimulus because it is against our Forum Rules to post LSAT questions on the forum.

Hello,

My name is Ken Kim. We are a group of Koreans and Korean-Americans planning to take the LSAT either this October or in a couple of years. We have members scoring from 160-175 either on the official test or practice tests. Some of us are committed full-time to the test while some of us are working at a company, law firm, etc. We meet on the following date at the Gangnam station Exit 9 Wing Study Cafe.

2:00 pm-5:00 pm, Sunday

We meet and do problem sets from the 7Sage Core Curriculum. We match our answers and discuss why each one of us have chosen an answer we chose. The fee for joining the study is free other than paying for the studying cafe fee which is 1,900 KRW per person for each hour (5,700 KRW total).

We have about 4-5 regular members joining every consecutive weekend. As for a new member, we accept a non-refundable fee of 5,700 KRW for the first meeting. After that, if the member cancels, we do give a refund for that cancellation. We do not make any profit out of doing this, and the sole purpose of this study meeting is to do LSAT questions and freely exchange ideas about the LSAT, law school admission, and any other matters related to the law school journey.

If you are interested, please send me a message to my inbox. I will direct you further. Thanks!

For anyone interested in a LSAT Study group for either the November or January dates, we are going to be meeting on Thursday 10/13 at 7pm EST to discuss scheduling. So far it seems as if evening meetings are preferable. Message me for the zoom link if interested

Hey guys! Who I drill MSS questions, I lays get all the "very low" questions correct, then when it gets to "low" questions and "high" questions, I always get down to the last 2 choices and pick the wrong one on the first go then pick the right one on the blind review. Are there any tips on how to distinguish between the last 2 answer choices in the time frame on the first go? thanks!

Does anyone have any tips regarding familiarizing oneself with law passages (e.g., reading materials, websites)? When I am unfamiliar with a topic whether in RC or LR, I end up re-reading a lot even though I have a fair grasp on the logic. Any tips and tricks would be appreciated!

    Hi! Are you at the begining of your lsat journey or its finally STARTING to make sense for you (emphasize on starting)? If yes, consider becoming my study buddy or study group!! I live in CT (and would be happy to study in-person near Milford. I'd also be okay virtual meets.)

    I'm looking for a study buddy or to form a small study group (4-5 people max). I'd like someone to study with, discuss and work through questions, and keep each other accountable. I'm available weekends and usually evenings weekday.

    Comment if interested and we'll get started.

I will schedule to take it on January again.I called LSAC and they said I can't do anything about it. How will this effect my chances of get into LS?

    No specifics about the test, just a general question regarding experimental sections. Are experimental sections used multiple times in different years? For example, if a section was included in an administration last year or 2 years ago etc., would its inclusion in a current administration mean it was experimental previously but is now the graded section OR would it be experimental again?
