scores come out a week from today and i can't stop stressing about it. i genuinely do not know what to expect which is a little scary because i'm also registered to take the october test and i don't know how much studying i should be doing before i know if i got a score that would be good enough to withdraw from october. how is everyone else feeling? what are you doing to calm nerves in the next week? is anyone else in the same boat with the october test?

Hello!

I have been PTing at 150 for the past 3 months despite studying an average of 4 hours a day drilling specific question types, doing sections of LR and RC and then blind reviewing every question and then inserting them into my wrong answer journal. Recently I took a completely untimed PT where I allowed myself to think through each question and didn't move on until I was 100% sure the AC I picked was correct. On that PT I scored the highest I've ever scored a 156, however I know I can do better, but I'm taking the October LSAT. It's clear that extra time would be extremely beneficial to me as especially with RC I need to take longer on the passages in order to understand what is being said.

Does anyone have any time strategy suggestions that can hopefully help me actually score closer to my potential by October? Or should I just accept that I will most likely score a 150 and retake it in January?

Thank you!

I am having trouble with the lawgic. My take away was:

WD m→ feature art

/comfortable→/WD

comfortable→SI

My thoughts for chaining...

contrapose comfortable→SI to become /SI→/comfortable

Therefore the chain...

/SI→/comfortable→/WD

So if /WD then... /WD m→/feature art

Can someone please explain why this is incorrect?

I appreciate the help!

Hi friends! I need some advice on how to improve my RC section. While I feel confident in LR, I am scoring much lower on RC, missing about 10 or 12 questions per RC section. I am scoring about 158/159 overall, and all I want is to score a 160.

My issue with RC is when I try to do low-res summaries, I run out of time. But when I try to read quicker, I forget passage details. When it comes to questions I missed, I always review and understand why I missed the question, but still end up missing similar questions on my next PT. Another issue is that I have a hard time getting through all four passages.

I feel stuck and not sure where to go from here. Even some kind words would be appreciated! Oh, and by the way, I am registered for the October LSAT. Am I doomed?

I work full time and I am looking for someone who can help me grasp LR and RC. I didn't do too great on the August LSAT so I am trying to change my study approach.

Does anyone know a good estimate of how long the writing sample takes to process? I took the September LSAT, and had a lot of unexpected things happen in the time following the test, hindering me from completing the writing sample. I am wondering how long it takes for the writing sample to process. Do you think if I take it tomorrow, Wednesday 9/18, it will process before the score release date for September?

As an international student from Ghana, I am having difficulties concentrating for more than an hour when taking PTs. I don't know how to resolve this, as I am registered to write the October LSAT and I don't feel prepared enough. If anyone here can help me with some useful tips on how to study better and maybe help me with study groups.

My time zone is GMT +00, I am available at any time and ready to put in the work to get my desired score please. Help a sister out ;(

Looking for anyone that may have an old copy or extra copy of the Loophole that they are willing to sell. Will pay for shipping costs etc! Would really like to get my hands on this if possible so let me know!

Thanks in advance

Hi, if anyone is interested in meeting online/in person in the NOLA area to study lmk! I am taking the Nov LSAT and work full time.

Hi I recently got diagnosed with ADHD and was wondering if any fellow 7sagers with ADHD would like to make a group chat to help support each other with study tips as well as motivation. If you are interested here is the link feel free to join https://groupme.com/join_group/103411020/XGK5DR7Y

I have 1.5x time accommodations for the LSAT. I took the LSAT test on paper with a scantron. I am scheduled to do the writing portion soon. I got scheduled for a paper and pencil writing exam. Obviously I would much rather type because it is way faster.

So my question is: Does having accommodations for the LSAT require me to taking the writing portion on paper, or do others with accommodations take it similar to lawhub style (typing)?

As the title said i am only breaking into the 170s when i take the 130s? i am in the 165-168 range in other tests, does anyone have any idea why this could be ?

As someone with ADHD something I often run into is self doubt. It can be in any situation but for me schooling was a place it came up often. As the LSAT is a test designed to make even a confident person second guess themselves, how do people go about trying to study with a voice of self doubt in your head?

Basically just above, my end goal is low 170s so not a big difference but I'm having a hard time getting even 168 or 169. There's no pattern to my wrong answers so I'm just looking for advice from people who were in my position at one time.

I was following the version 1 curriculum until I got to the introduction to logic section which focuses on logic but is that for the logic games? Some people said to switch to the v2 curriculum but I do not know where to start with the version 2 curriculum. Can anyone help me or should I just start from the beginning and proceed?

Hi! Taking the August LSAT, there were a couple questions that IMO ended up effectively being small logic games. I won't go into specifics, but I was wondering on strategy for these types of questions-- I wasted lots of time on one question and still couldn't figure it out. I would love to DM if anyone feels similarly!

Hi all,

I was wondering if anyone has gotten an accommodation letter for major anxiety (testing anxiety, panic disorder, etc.) and how your process went in getting the letter and LSAC accepting it? Was LSAC easy going with it or did you have to appeal at all/provide additional info? I've heard from some people that they prefer certain healthcare professionals to others.. not sure

DOES ANYONE HAVE A LINK FOR TODAYS NOON CLASS? THIS IS MY 4TH CLASS AND STILL NOT ABLE TO GET IN, LIKE WHERE IS THE LINK, THIS IS SO FRUSTRATING

Hello everyone, want to get a study group going for motivation! I started a discord and am planning to study mondays at 7pm EST, at least to start. If your interested please message me and I'll send you the discord!

Looking to find people to work with on PT review and drilling for November LSAT. Preferably evenings (full-time college student) currently testing in high 150s looking to get to mid-high 160s.

Why don't drills show up on the analytics page?

So I'm scoring consistently in the 160/161, with BR of 163, and a one-time score 164. While I'm glad that I am at least accurate in my scores, I'm not sure how to break through, and become better in those specific areas. I've been doing focused drills, but clearly it's not having an effect yet.

Any tips/advice on how to approach this in a different way?

Thanks!

Hey 7Sagers,

LSAC has recently unveiled their new writing section, Argumentative Writing. This is the first major change to the writing section since 1982!

How does the new Argumentative Writing section differ from the old writing section, and how should you update your approach? Instructor Alex Jacobs and admissions consultant Jake Baska will be leading a session later today to introduce the new writing section. There will also be an in-class practice writing prompt.

This class is free to all users! You can register for the session here.

I feel like I should be doing practice questions as I go through the module. Does anyone have any insight or do you think the best way to do it is go through the course and do practice questions when they are given? And if you are doing practice questions along the way how are you putting them into your studying of the module. Thanks!
