Hi everyone,

Pretty much my first time posting here but first wanted to give a HUGE thanks to 7sage and the community! Everyone has been so helpful, and I definitely received a ton of valuable help along the way.

That being said, like another previous post, I wanted to help others on the same journey as me, for free of course! There is so much that we need to spend on for the LSAT and law school, so I wanted to take this chance and offer some help without charge.

For context, I took the Nov LSAT and got a 172. I was PTing between 172 and 178 before taking the test. I realize it is not perfect, but I would be open to helping out if anyone wants it.

I am open to working with any of the three sections and we can focus on:

I want to give priority to those who are taking the January LSAT since that is right around the corner, but willing to help out anyone else as well.

Please PM me and we can discuss/schedule a time if there is anyone that is interested in the help. Otherwise, wishing everyone the best on their LSAT journey!

How do we find out where it is taken? I registered but it never said where I go to take the exam or the format of the exam

what are the general thoughts on retaking PT's? I started studying nov 2022 and am taking the jan 2023. I had read that there was a shift in PT's in the 80's so, considering I didnt have much time to waste, thats where I started. well I made my way through the 80's much quicker than I expected and started doing PT's in the 70's. I can definitely notice the shift... my average for the last 5 tests in the 70's is about 4 points lower than my average for PT 87-91, and its basically all from RC. im scoring like -9 in RC in the 70's vs -4 in the 80's. Its getting very discouraging lol so I retook PT 80 (first took it over a month ago) I remember the general idea of some of the questions/passages/games, but definitely not my reasonings for picking an answer... much less what the correct answer was. but I scored 11 points higher this time around. Do you think there is any accuracy in scores from previously taken tests? even if theres no accuracy in score, is there a benefit in retaking a PT? or do the risks outweigh the benefits and I should just stick to older PT's even though its crushing my spirit? haha

any input is much appreciated!!

Hi I am ranging around 150 ish and my lsat is in June. I just started studying a month ago. I am looking for a study partner who can meet in zoom or something weekly to kinda guide each other. I am not looking for a tutor or something. I am just looking for a partner. Please let me know if you are interested. Thanks

I wasn't sure how to title this discussion post, but hopefully someone reading can give me some advice.

I am looking to apply for law school in the next upcoming cycle (applying as early in the cycle as possible) and I plan on taking the LSAT in January (and another exam if needed). One of my biggest concerns with going to law school is making sure 1. I can afford it, and 2. Hopefully receiving enough scholarships to make that possible. I know that your LSAT is probably one of the biggest factors that the admissions office look at when considering how much scholarship money you will be awarded (I am aware that they look each individuals application holistically and there are other factors they take into consideration, but I'm sure most of us are aware that LSAT and GPA are undeniably important).

So my question is, does anyone have any insight/advice on where I should be scoring on a schools percentiles to receive, lets say a full ride to their school? I'm aware that scoring within a schools median is a good place to be, but if that's the case, does this mean I will for sure be receiving aid from that school if I'm hitting those numbers, or should I look to be score higher than the schools median? Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated! I'm more just confused on how a school decides on how will receive scholarships/aid.

Recently I've started brainstorming ideas for my personal statement and just wanted to get some opinions from students who are / were in a similiar situation as me. It feels as though addressing the drastic pivot from science into law must be explained on my statement; however, is this feeling justified? If so, how much of your personal statement did you end up using to explain this switch, i.e was it the main focus?

I've taken J.Y.'s advice and written down on small pieces of paper the PT problems that I don't understand. For some of the questions it helped, and I moved on from those once I fully understood why the correct answer was correct, but what about the other ones that I just can't seem to get right?

I only have about a few, but they drive me crazy. Should I move on? Or keep reasoning them until I have them fully understood?

If i've already taken a prep test once, do I need to "delete data" in order to take it a second time? If so, does all the data analytics go away as well...?

For the live classes, do they let us know what section will be gone over prior to the class? #help

Can someone look over my personal statement? or know of someone who can review and provide feedback.

Thanks

Can someone explain why it's A and not B?

In short, I took the October LSAT. Didn't get the score I wanted. Retaking in February. I'm starting to study again now in late December and throughout January/early February. I've done zero studying whatsoever since taking October, so it's been roughly 2 months. Should I expect a big score decrease as I start to PT again? Is getting back to where I was a quick process, or will it take multiple weeks? I'm looking to increase by about 5 pts by February. Is it possible to achieve that increase in under 2 months? (October 155 --> 160+ goal). Thanks everyone.

How do you deal with this type questions? I am so confused. Watch the video by JY in CC. It looks simple but when I am doing it my brain is jammed…

I've seen no official statement from LSAC so just wanted to ask if anybody has done it without issues. I intend to make sure my laptop is fully charged before starting but I'm just curious in case I somehow forget.

Hi everyone,

I had a question regarding the drill portion of each lesson.

Are we supposed to do it under timed conditions or untimed conditions? Also, do we have to blind review if were are doing it under untimed conditions?

Should we complete the entire lesson before moving on the to next lesson including drills?

Can anyone explain this answer? #help

help I said C initially but during BR switched to E. I thought C was wrong because barren conditions doesn't exactly say much about weather conditions and E could explain the discrepancy because if beetles are older they're likely to appear sooner in the record than pollen....

I chose B with certainty in my blind review, but found out that D was the correct answer.

Is the answer choice B not the correct answer because it does not mention the "certain size" of political interest group?

Also, if D is the correct answer, does it mean that "as wide a membership as possible" is supported by what the passage says "exceeds a certain size"?

Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone,

I have been studying for the LSAT for about 4 months now, and I'm finally fully finished with my core curriculum. I am planning on now taking PTs. I'm having major anxiety about taking my first ever PT because I'm scared I will not perform too well since it will be my first time taking a full-length LSAT exam. I'm afraid of getting a very low score and feeling very discouraged afterward. I still struggle a lot with time, and I'm anxious this will get the best of me and cause me to perform horribly. If you have experienced something similar, please share how you overcame your anxiety about taking PTs.

Thank you in advance!

I tend to fluctuate in the LR section. I want to improve it to the point where I get a -3 or -4 consistently. Now the problem is when I get a practice test that has two LR sections, I tend to do great in one of them and okay in the other. I have checked the difficulty levels and they both tend to be similar. Any advice on what I should do to achieve my goal? Should I be doing more drills to see where my problem is?

When i take PTs I have been using the wrong answer journal template available in the review answers section for all my completed PTs

Is there somewhere I can gain access to all of my wrong answer journal notations together in one location so I can print or export them for studying?

I just took my first PT doing all four sections for stamina. For BR, do you guys look at the second Logical Reasoning section, or do you check "simulate modern" to review only the other three sections since the actual test only has three scored sections?

I feel a con of looking at the second LR section would be that it takes up more time but a pro is that I'm obviously reviewing more questions. I'm just unsure what to do.

for some reason I can't find the email where it tells us when scheduling opens for time slots for the January LSAT. Does anybody know?

I’ll be taking the January 2023 test and am doing my first PT tomorrow (I know it’s a bit close). I’ll have accommodations for my disabilities with one of them being the option to pause the test anytime.

I looked at the 7sage practice test format and don’t see an option to pause the test anywhere. As I’m trying to replicate the real thing it’d be nice to have it on here. Is there no option on here or has anyone found it and I’m just overlooking it?
