Hi everyone, looking for anyone in the Los Angeles area or even virtually who’s open to joining a study group! Maybe there’s one that already exists? Let me know if anyone has more information, happy to start a group as well.

Hello!

I am looking for a couple of individuals (3-5) who are taking the LSAT in November or January for the 2nd time (or 3rd etc.), and are aiming for a 160+ to review sections before exam day. Please let me know if you would be interested and I will add you to a study group discord.

Lost drill answers

Hello.

I completed a drill and accidentally exited out when I was trying to compare my answers with a previous PT I took. Is there anyway to go back and find the answers of the drill I did? If that makes sense

EDIT: As of October 24, LSAC says that Sonoma should now be compatible with Prometric’s servers.

Yesterday, we posted an important heads-up on the 7Sage blog for Mac users who are taking the October or November LSAT remotely. I've pasted the article below:

"For anyone planning to take the October or November LSAT remotely, you need to know about a compatibility issue. Prometric, LSAC’s digital testing provider, currently does NOT support macOS Sonoma, Apple's newest operating system.

If you're considering updating your Mac, hold off and remain on macOS Ventura before your exam.

Double-check your Mac's version in About this Mac. Make sure it reads “Ventura.”

If you’ve already upgraded to Sonoma, you have a few options. The most convenient is to borrow someone else’s computer to take the LSAT. If you can’t borrow a computer, you can use an external SSD as a startup disk and format it to run macOS Ventura. If you’re on an Intel mac, you can also use Bootcamp to install Windows to take the LSAT.

Whether you've opted to use another computer, Bootcamp, or an external drive, you should verify your setup's compatibility using the Prometric Testing tool and LSAC Lawhub.

Best of luck, autumn test-takers!"

All, please help me to stop pulling l my hair out.

Two weeks ago, I switched to exclusively using Lawhub for my PTs since I'll be testing for the Nov 2023 LSAT and wanted to be accustomed to the format.

Before that, I had been scoring in the high 160s (165, 169, 170, 168) and nabbed a 170 once.

However, since I have switched, I got a 164, a 163, and just got a 164. It's wildly frustrating, especially because I am seeing trends in my scores I have never seen before (I usually get -4 or better on RC, but got a -6 and -7 on my previous two PTs) that seem to defy my previous understanding of my strengths and weaknesses. Unfortunately, there are a few things happening in my life that may be contributing to this, so it's been hard for me to isolate what the causes might be. I'm worried that the layout/fixed order/extra LR on Lawhub is a major contributing cause, but I can't tell. Further, I feel like it's important that I get comfortable with the layout whether I like it or not.

In trying to understand this, I wanted to get people's experience and input.

How do I interpret this significant drop in my scores? How can I tell whether my previously higher scores or my current scores are the fluke trend?

Has anyone else seen score fluctuations when they test on Lawhub as opposed to 7Sage? And, by extension, what are your thoughts regarding the modern (3-passage) vs. legacy (4-passage with the extra LR) for accurately assessing ability?

As general advice, what did you do to break the high 160s ceiling/plateau?

Thanks all for your input, and please help me reduce the amount of time I need to spend doing anti-frustration meditations on Spotify.

Hey, y’all. I took the August LSAT and scored a 140. I was shooting for a 157. I thought I could rope LSAT prep into my schedule this semester, but it hasn’t worked. I’m planning on ramping studying back up November 1 for about an hour a day and then ramp it up even more when I’m home during break. My question is should I take it again in January or should I give myself more time? I’m looking to start law school in the fall of 2024. Any advice is appreciated!

The website is faulty somehow. for a couple of days now it's been giving me an error message. and it is very slow. I know it is not my laptop because i used it for other things. Someone, please let me know it is not just me.

So when I was taking the test it asked me to take a picture of myself then take a picture of my ID. Then it prompted me to complete a checklist of a room scan. I wasn't sure what to do because my camera showed it was recording with the red light on top of my surface pro but I could not see anything but the checklist while I was showing the room. (Such as imagine taking a video on your phone but only seeing your home screen) So I had no perspective of what I was showing. Did I miss a step? Was I supposed to scan the room when I took a picture of my ID? I am genuinely confused

I've read a lot of horror stories about the last several LSATs taken remotely following the switch to Prometric. I'm trying not to worry. I know there could be sampling bias on discussion boards toward those who had bad experiences vs those who had zero issues.

Does anyone have advice to prepare? Additional items to have/remove, questions to ask, room requirements, etc.

I took the LSAT previously with ProctorU and didn't have issues, but it sounds like things have changed. I read the official guidelines on LSAC and Prometric, but I've also heard some contradictions (which could lead to interruptions).

Thanks so much in advance.

Scoring in low to mid 150's consistently. Been studying since August, LG is consistently my worst section and my RC is my best section by a little bit. I know my weak points obviously from analytics, but my question is with so little time left, what should I be focusing on the most right now? Realistically I can probably study for 25-28 hours a week if I no-life my Friday's and Saturday's which at this point I don't even care bc I'm so close. PLEASE somebody tell me what you'd do if you were me???

👥 Study Group Location: Virtual (preferably EST to make things easier!)

🔢 I'm currently scoring: 150 - 160

📆 My planned test date: Jan 2024

🔍 We'll focus on: timing, confidence, PT's, and reading comprehension

I also want to look at the group as an accountability group so we all know we have each other to lean on when things get hard and the journey gets lonely! We understand each other's circumstances and the road we are on, so we should stick together :)

📚 When we'll meet and what we'll do: zoom

✅ How to join: Message me on 7sage :)

Happy Studying!
