study group needed, if anyone wants join.... A little about myself currently working at summer camp and plan to take the September LSAT. looking for an afternoon group between 7-10pm est.

Hello! I got the answer right for this LR question, but was having a hard time unpacking the last sentence of the prompt. I know starting with "for unless" is a premise but the wording is a bit convoluted.

"Some extremists claim that all uses of language are metaphorical. But this cannot be so, for unless some uses of words are literal, there can be no nonliteral uses of any words.

Hi, I wonder if there is a way to Blind Review my pt after I falsely stated that I completed Blind Review. I clicked on that I completed BR because I wanted to see the score immediately. But now I want to actually do the BR. Is there a way to "recover"and BR for real again?

Will the in-person LSAT offered beginning Aug 2023 be a pencil+paper administration? or does Prometric typically offer laptops to take the test digitally at the test center (point+click)?

Hi all,

I am in a bit of a shock at the moment. I received my cum GPA and it dropped from a 4.06 to 3.58. I had a rough start in 2010 and walked out on my courses without withdrawing. I need an expert to help me double check if LSAC may have made an error. I need an absolute pro to help me out. I don't want to ask LSAC to double check in case they made an error and somehow end up with a lower score. Any avail to help me out?

Thank you!

Hi all- a few LSAT questions here for those who have taken it before. How do you access the exam on test day? How much time beforehand is needed between you/ proctor before starting the test? How many pieces of scrap paper are you allowed to use? Thank you.

Hi all,

A little bit about me I am a Criminal Defense/Trial Assistant Paralegal. So, my schedule is pretty jam packed. I am looking for a study buddy/group that would like to meet a couple of times a week on zoom. More or less to keep each other accountable and simply be on the zoom to study. We can go into more details after.

Here are my thoughts on days or times (EST).

Monday - 8-10pm?

Wednesday or Thursday - 8-10pm?

Friday - 6-8pm?

I am open to other days. Let's do this! I am looking to take the test in November.

Hey all! I'm debating whether I should take the LSAT at a testing center or choose the remote option. Any prior experiences with either or pros/cons would be helpful! FWIW, I do have accommodations, so idk if that changes the dynamic of remote testing.

I would love to meet with anyone on zoom multiple times a week and have study sessions! I am taking the august LSAT and found it very helpful to walk through problems with other people and get different perspectives

Let me know if anyone wants to join!

Hi, while recently shifting my strategy to study the LSAT from a quantitative method to a qualitative method - by using fewer prep material to maximize the effects of the study - I was thinking that I might need to change how I study the RC section as well from previously only looking at problems that I missed and the passages that I had a struggle with to thoroughly inspecting the whole four passages in an RC section. Is this a valid approach to study the RC section? I would like any thoughts on this methodology.

when you take the lsat-flex, can you see yourself throughout the time with the camera, or are you not able to see yourself?

Hey I am applying to a new school after being dismissed (due to external factors that have since improved) from another law school last year. This is my first time applying to this particular law school in question. Should I put first time or reapplicant as my applicant type? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Hi all,

I have ADHD and some sensory issues, and I found something that really helps me with studying. Silicone earplugs! I have seen quite a few discussions about ADHD tips from years back and figured I should post this for people who are currently on the study train.

Here are the ones that I use. I found them at my local CVS: https://www.cvs.com/shop/cvs-health-ultra-soft-silicone-earplugs-6-pairs-prodid-457795

They have helped me so much with studying and taking practice exams. I find that the slight pressure in my ear helps me to be more comfortable and relaxed. It almost replicates the feeling of a nice weighted blanket. Additionally, they block out small noises that might otherwise throw me off of my rhythm.

Also, you are allowed to wear earplugs during the test. They are on the list of preapproved items (https://www.prometric.com/test-owners/resources/testing-accommodations-pre-approved-items, https://www.lsac.org/lsat/register-lsat/accommodations/accommodations-may-be-available-lsat) for both the multiple-choice and writing sections. The only requirements are that you show them to the proctor before the exam and that they are "non-electronic, non-corded/banded, and generic foam" (I am assuming silicone, a foam-like substance, is okay). You could use foam ones, but I find that the silicone ones stay in my ears so much better.

Hope this helped somebody.

Does the course curriculum direct you on when to drill certain sections? I just started my CC and I was wondering if I have to schedule in drills on my own or of 7sage will direct me on when to do them depending on where in the course im on.

Hi all, would really appreciate advice from anyone who has taken the LSAT recently. LSAC sent us a temporary login for proctorio to use when we registered for a time slot, however I tried to create my own account on proctorU and it wouldn't let me. Does anyone know how to set up Proctor U before test day? Do we need our ow account or do we use the temporary login? Thank you! #help

Hi, just got really confused on a particular LR question and hope I can get some help, thank you. The question I am talking about is the LR question from PT88, Section 4, Question 24

How is answer B correct? I still don’t see it. Because experiencing trauma is the REASON why you develop PTSD, and therefore you can still say that even though the reason you produce more cortisol is because to resist developing PTSD, it is still because that you have experienced past trauma! (works like a conditional logic chain: trauma -> PTSD -> more cortisol), so B doesn’t actually weaken the argument since it is still suggesting that trauma is the ultimate reason. That’s why I eliminated B immediately.

So I am in the "Some and Most Relationships" section of LR in V1, I have completed all of the lessons up to Valid Argument Form (4 of 9). When I switched over to V2 of the core curriculum, my progress was not transferred over and now I do not know where to start in this version of the program. I don't want to start from the foundational basics, but I am afraid if I skip too far ahead I will miss a lesson that I haven't covered in V1 yet. Any advice?

I am not understanding how D is the correct answer. I actually chose D before blind review, mainly as a gut instinct to look back over later. Upon blind review, I changed my answer to B.

I now understand why B is wrong, as all we know is that many municipalities will choose rent controlled ordinances for short term gain, but there is no way of knowing whether or not they will choose to repeal them when the long-term disadvantages set in.

What I don't understand is how D is not subject to the exact same flaw. I understand that we know that many municipalities will choose rent control ordinances, which in theory would eventually lead to a shortage of rental units, but how can we properly infer that each municipality in that group either does or will actually make it to the point of experiencing that long-term disadvantage? Isn't it possible that they will all repeal the ordinances before shortages become a problem?

Maybe the reasoning is because while it is possible that they repeal before the shortages arise, we should assume that, because they are entirely motivated by the short-term gains, they would not repeal the ordinances before the shortages arise?

If there is a better way of reasoning this out please let me know, thanks! I am probably overthinking this one....

I’ve been studying for the LSAT for about 7 months now. I’ve seen pretty significant improvements on LG and LR. Right now I’m usually at around -1 to -3 for LG and -5 to -7 for LR. Studying RC has been very difficult for me. I have repeatedly been getting -12 to -15 on RC sections despite putting a lot of effort into the core curriculum and drills. I know RC is one of the harder sections to improve on, but I really just want to improve so that I’m getting around -8 consistently. Does anyone have any strategies for low scorers on RC to improve by a few points? Is it worth it to try skipping the last passage all together and just focus on the first 3?

For some reason the button icons on the problem sets, and the website as a whole, keep disappearing. Arrows, checkmarks, stars, they all keep vanishing. I've tried refreshing the website, closing and reopening my browser, and restarting my computer, and yet the problem persists. Is this a site-wide issue or is it simply unique to me? What can I do to fix it?

I am really struggling to improve logic games especially the logic games with a twist are extremely hard and I feel like I am never going to get this section.

Is there a way to include "unclean" questions in the generated drills?

Hello! I'm having a really hard time answering all the questions within 35 minutes. I tend to run out of time during RC and sometimes, LG. I score significantly better when I blind review and I know I could do a lot better if I just had maybe 5 more minutes with every section. I honestly feel capable enough to answer each question type but I tend to get them wrong because I feel rushed. During BR, I realize that if I wasn't so rushed, I would have gotten a lot more questions correct.

Any advice on how you manage your time during your PTs or how to not let the clock give you anxiety? This is single-handily the reason why I've always done so bad with exams. Thanks :)
