I'm not even sure what my diagnostic score was, but I think it was around a 143, it has been over a year since that happened, but I am happy to finally say that my LSAT journey is over. Logged in today to see a 177. 7Sage is masterful!!

If you're looking for a tutor, please message me. (hopefully that is allowed on this forum?). I was stuck in the low 160s all throughout last year, had to cancel my Oct 2021 LSAT because I panicked. Decided to delay a year and study more. Found a tutor, wouldn't have gotten here without him.

Why is the correct answer E and not C? How is the answer not attributing vacancy laws to that increase when they say "...increase crime while purporting to decrease it"?

I was supposed to write the LSAT on my 21st birthday. The night before I got scared and took a year-long break from even looking at LSAT content. This year I wrote the LSAT after 9 months of using 7Sage and a week after my 23rd birthday. I did not do anything special I just followed the syllabus and took 1-2 PTs a week depending on my mood and my full-time job. I just wanted to say thank you to 7sage and this community and Bon voyage to the monthly expense.

I can't thank 7sage enough for this program. I took the LSAT last June and got a 144 with little to no studying. I started studying again this past January and took it in August with a 152 and was devastated. I registered for the October test the day I got my August score back and got right back to studying. Then today I got my 161, which was higher than I thought I was going to get. I am over the moon and I would not have been able to do it without this program.

Hey everyone, your advice would be much appreciated. I did a very dumb thing and retook a 170. In my defense, I was PTing between 173-178 for the last 3 months, which is the only reason I decided to do it. Score release today was a nightmare and I got a 167, which I haven't scored since before the June test. There were no extenuating circumstances besides test anxiety and normal Proctor U issues. I have score preview, but I'm not sure whether a second cancel would look worse than a 3 point score drop. Things to consider (1) Admissions could assume the cancel was much worse than a 167 (2) 167 and 170 are technically in the same score band, but now it looks like I am at the lower end rather than the higher end (3) I can't retake before my applications are due so don't ask lol. If it helps, I am a nURM, nKJD, 3.90 applicant that graduated a year early from a non-ivy with some international/bilingual work experience trying for a T-10 school (NYU is my dream). Thanks for all of your help! I've heard such mixed things.

Hello,

I have letters of recommendations that are about a year to a few months old. I was hoping to apply earlier but got delayed. If I request my recommenders to update the letters, how exactly does that work? Do I have to send them a new letter request again and they resubmit the letter with an updated date, or can they simply update the already present letter on LSAC?

Please help!!!

I am so excited that 7Sage got me this far. To anyone doubting their ability to succeed on this test: you absolutely can do it! Keep working those drills!

Only difference was 7sage!

Thank you 7sage! I just got my results back from the October LSAT and I got a 176! Thank you for the fantastic curriculum, excellent lessons and well set up and easy to use site. Thanks to you I can apply to my dream colleges, and be confident of getting in. Thank you from the bottom of my heart🙏

Just canceled my November LSAT. So relieved I don't need to take next week's LSAT since I haven't quite practiced after the October test. Should I write an addendum to explain this score increase? The core reason is just that I was in poor health condition last time when I took the test in August.

The title says it all.. I’m dejected, demotivated and so disappointed. Honestly I don’t even know what to say..

I had a monthly + live subscription that ends November 20,2022. However, I just downgraded to the monthly today but for some reason I can no longer access the live classes. I assumed that I had at least till November 20 to access these classes since I paid for a full month. Can you help me access the live classes till November 20, when the new monthly subscription is supposed to kick in. Thank you

Hi, I am finishing my law school list for application but worrying rather I am making my lists too unrealistically. Thus I am here to get some comments about it.

My list is mostly made out of the schools within T40 (i.e-BU, Minnesota, Norte Dame, GW, Iowa, W&M, Washington and Lee, BC, Fordham, UC Davis, UC Irvine). I am also planning to apply one school from low T-14 (maybe UCLA or Berkeley?) or Boston University (more likely) as my early decision. Here are my Stats:

Am I making the goal too high? Any suggestions about my list? I am welcoming any of your comments and recommendations!

After taking a preptest how do you review your wrong answers?

When would LSAC get rid of LG? Sometime in 2023?

Super nervous when that will happen.. If they get rid of LG it will significantly lower my score since helped me score better than other sections.. Did any of you guys hear about when exactly in 2023 it will happen?

I'm taking test in November (2nd test) but looking into 2023 test dates as well but I want to take it before the format changes. :(

Would the change become effective after August 2023?

Any thoughts will be appreciated!

Can we start register for the February test now?

Hi! I am taking the Nov LSAT next Friday and have a quick question about the Writing Sample. Although it opens in advance (this week), it's my understanding that I could take it after I take the MC exam (and they won't release my score until I've submitted). I've not started reviewing anything for the Writing part and my thinking is I'd rather do that right after the exam (within a couple of days) to give myself maximized time for final studying etc. Is there any issue with doing that? Thanks so much, so appreciated!

The video accompanying PT 73 S4 Q26 ruled out answer choice B because it included the conditional, "if."

Will any necessary assumption answer choice be wrong if that is the case?

Hello!

To all those who wrote the LSAT live on Proctor U,

did you download the Proctor U extension?

Context: I have the latest MacBook but when I do an equipment test on Proctor U, it shows some failures (for wifi speed and screen) and suggests to download the extension. I keep hearing its spyware and kills your computer settings...

Out of curiosity, do you guys warm up before a PT?

If so, what do you guys do for each section and how do you make your selection of questions?

For example, for LR do you choose random easy questions or are the questions selected for personal reasons (like the question reminds you of certain fundamentals or concepts)

It’s really difficult to highlight one single word on Lawhub.

I need to try couple times to get the word highlighted.

Does anyone know how to fix this issue? Thanks.

Today I got an email (and I'm sure most people have as well), about the practice LSAT field study for the new alternatives to the logic games section that will be administered in December. I know LSAC announced that they are looking to announce the changes to LG sometime in 2023, but I was wondering if anyone knew specifically when these changes would be implemented? I'm shooting to take my LSAT sometime early in 2023 and I'm going to be really bummed if I'm studying LG for no reason right now.

How many timed sections should I take on each day ahead of the Nov test?

What is everyone else doing to prepare?

Hi everyone,

The LSAC has provided the following information about their upcoming LSAC Analytical Reasoning Field Study scheduled to take place December 16 and 17.

As part of the LSAC's ongoing efforts to improve the LSAT, they are researching alternative, equally valid ways to assess analytical reasoning (AR) skills (also known as Logic Games).This is a long-term research effort that they’ve been working on for several years and will continue for some time.

As part of this effort, the LSAC included a special research section in the June 2022 LSAT administration for some test takers. Building on that research, they will administer a three-section AR field study to several thousand volunteers.

Participation is open to anyone 18 years or older in the United States or Canada who has an LSAC.org account. This will include future and past test takers, as well as people who are considering taking the LSAT. The same terms and conditions apply as a regular LSAT administration.

The field study will be administered in the same live, remotely proctored format as a standard LSAT, using ProctorU and LawHub. The field study will consist of three sections: one section of traditional AR questions and two sections of questions that use alternative approaches to assess AR skills.

As an incentive for your participation, test takers will receive feedback on their performance on the traditional AR questions. Every study participant will receive a copy of the traditional AR section, the correct answers, and the answers they provided for each question. Upon completion of the LSAC AR Field Study, only the traditional AR section will be disclosed.

The data gathered in this study will enable the LSAC to continue its rigorous testing and analysis to ensure that potential new question types have the same reliability and predictive validity as current AR questions so that schools remain confident of the LSAT’s predictive value.

It is important to reiterate that there are no plans to change any part of the LSAT’s content in the near future. If and when the LSAC decides to incorporate any new question types into the actual LSAT, they will provide lengthy advance notice, practice questions, and explanatory materials prior to LSAC using any new question type in a scored section of the LSAT.

You can sign up for the LSAC Analytical Reasoning Field Study here.

The supreme court might rule on affirmative action in the next couple of weeks. If it gets eliminated would that change anything for law school applications?
