The last time I took the lsat, it was when it was paper/pencil and in person. For the new online and at home lsats, can you have scratch paper with you?

Hello everyone.

Can someone explain to me why the answer that is most strongly supported is E?

I even watched the video and it totally seems like an assumption. In no way does the prompt lead one to believe that artificial fibers are straight in their original state, even if shirts made with artificial fibers do not shrink under hot water.

So I do not see how one could infer that since the process of straightening or shrinking does not happen to polyester, that it was naturally straight. It could be the case that Polyester isn't naturally straight, but that it also does not shrink under hot water.

Any help would be greatly appreciated

I’m currently preparing for the LSAT and I'm looking for a study group in the Toronto area to help keep each other motivated and discuss complex topics. I’m aiming for the September 2024 test date. Ideally, I'd like to connect with someone who is also serious about studying and can meet regularly online or in person to review sections and share insights. If you're interested, please let me know so we can coordinate our schedules and start studying together!! Thank you 🙏

Hi all! I am currently a full-time student, working ~35 hours a week as an LA, and trying to fit in at least 3-4 hours a day on LSAT prep. Are there others in the same boat, and how are you avoiding burnout?

I suppose I just want to hear from anyone who is managing a similar workload that can sympathize. It seems like most of my friends and fellow pre-law students are able to take time off of school and work in order to study.

Hello all,

I haven't been on 7Sage that long, and I am in the process of completing the core curriculum. That said, I am finished with the Foundations portion, so I am moving onto the LR and RC sections of the curriculum. I plan to take my first LSAT in October, but I am wondering how I should go about studying. I hope to take my first PT (not counting my diagnostic) this Friday even though I am not finished with the CC. It seems to be the case that I am pressed for time and need to drill and take PTs before I finish the CC. So, I am basically doing CC, Drills, and PTs all at once, which I know is unorthodox.

Is this problematic? Am I not pursuing a proper study schedule/structure? Has anyone done this and has it worked for them?

My diagnostic was around a 145, and a majority of the time I had to fill in random answers as I ran out of time. This diagnostic PT also included LG, which were not intuitive for me one bit. I am aiming on a 160 - 163 and plan to apply to Law Schools in the Fall of 2025 for the school year of Fall 2026. I am not concerned with eventually attaining the score I want in a matter of a year, but I am more so concerned with rushing through my first LSAT since it's coming up and I don't have much time.

Any help would be appreciated, thanks everyone.

Hello all!

I am wanting to apply to law school this fall and need guidance putting my application together. I have loved 7sage for LSAT prep and I am currently working my way through the application videos. I am looking for advice and opinions on application consulting services. Have any of you used 7sage and if so what was your experience like? Have you used another service and if so same question? Honestly, I want to use 7sage but it's a little pricey and so I just want to make sure it's worth it. I am meeting with a consultant later this week but just want to know if anyone has any strong opinions on it.

So, I would love to hear any and all experiences, opinions or advice. This is a lot of money for me to spend so I am wanting to make the most of it. TIA:)

My LSAT Preptests will not print. Everytime I click "printable", it just shows each section of the preptest in quick view. I have tried clearing my browsing data, but it still won't work.

i really need to keep myself on point with the lsat, i know cool libraries we can hold group study sessions at, print pts and go over them in person and stuff like that. lmk thanks

If -8 on average correlated to a 170 on the last 20 LG / LR / RC tests, curious to get folks pulse on whether that will shift under the new test. I know it will vary from test to test, but I'm looking for a directional sense.

The reason I ask is that I understand many folks in the 170s went -0 on LG. So, I'm wondering if the test being all LR / RC will mean that maybe on average a -9-10 would be enough to be a 170 under the new test expecting that fewer folks will be able to consistently hit -0 on any section.

Btw, this does assume that the scaled score adjusts with testers performance and the LSAC doesn't decide to just give fewer 170s (which would seem counterintuitive).

I know this is rather speculative, but just curious for thoughts.

Can someone explain why D is the correct answer and not A? I feel like the passage suggests that kinglets do not participate in nocturnal behavior to find food.

Hi all,

I am taking the LSAT in August without LG. I'm wondering if the tests that aren't redone that are only 3 sections, will give me a full score after taking them. Thank you!

As I've been taking practice LR sections, I've noticed that my range of wrong answers varies drastically. I don't struggle with any particular question type or difficulty level, so I'm not sure how to improve my score. For example, I will get like 8 questions wrong, each in a different category, ranging from 5/5 difficulty to 2/5 difficulty. Is it just a matter of practice? Please help! :)

Take a minute to answer this question in the poll before continuing. This question is EVIL!!!! It may not seem so at first, but allow me to unpack the various tricks they use to make a rather simple question very tricky.

I initially picked A, and ill explain my reasoning behind it. I read first that this is an inferrence statement, so immediately my mind is looking to fill in a logical hole. As I scan through the passage, my mind comes to this, "Why is it necessary to not build an incinerator to prevent waste? What if the incinerator is not used? What about other methods of disposal?" Then I see answer A, "All of the city's trash that is not recycled goes into the incinerators." This feels great! This fills in a hole in my mind about the waste, and clearly makes this argument complete. Trash either is recycled or put in the incinerator, so lets not build an incinerator. This is a great answer for a support/strengthen question, and it feeeeeels like it completes the logic of the argument. However, this one is wrong! Not only does it retread the ground of what happens to recycling when an incinerator is rebuilt(making this statement unnecessary), no where does the argument support this!!!! DON'T FORGET THE QUESTION STEM!!! We are looking for something we could logically conclude from the passage above, not looking to fix the passage in any way. Once you remember that, the question is obviously wrong.

The other dangerous thing about this question is that the answer, D, looks awful. It uses very, very strong language of CANNOT and ANY. It uses the exact same language of the passage, which usually indicates a wrong answer. It elaborates on only one premise, instead of the whole passage, and it ignores the conclusion. Terrible!!! However, if you read it carefully, its pretty easy to prove. If the city is to avoid(avoid is a rather low bar) wasting resources, huge amounts of trash cannot be burned in any city incinerator. Looking at the rest of the passage, this is clear from the burn = waste. Some burning = some waste, so to avoid waste we avoid burning. Simple!

This one is correct, but it takes dodging a lot of traps to get to it. Be careful! The LSAT creators are clever and will lay many traps to stop you!

Hi. I have a lower undergrad gpa (3.4) and am aiming for top 35-ish range of law schools. I know I need my lsat to be in the high 160s and I think this is doable, but i'm extremely worried about the gpa. I am 2 years out of (a semi-prestigious) school. Any suggestions?

Hi hi I'm looking for a study group or buddies in Dallas, TX to get ready for the Oct. LSAT?? Lmk down below if you're down to form a group together!!

so i'm aware there are a few older posts on here about this topic, but was hoping that someone could chime in with new advice...

i'm averaging around 170-173 on blind review pts, and about 92-100% on RC and LR drills with 25 questions/4 passages (sometimes ~88% for the harder ones). however, my scores before blind review tend to hover around 165-67. i know that these are, by no means, bad scores, but i do want a higher score on the actual lsat (sept 2024).

my biggest problem for rc is that i tend to miss essential parts of the passage (that i do not realize are essential until i get to the questions), and end up having to a) go way over time or b) only get to thoroughly read the passage during blind review.

for lr, i panic about the time and end up not selecting an answer i'm confident with until blind review.

i know that comparing timed/untimed scores is one of the main goals of blind review, so i guess i'm also just asking about how to balance time and thoroughness.

i don't know if i need to just keep drilling (though i feel like i'm burning through questions and pts) or if there's some other trick!!

any tips would be appreciated :)

Going to be on a 3 hour flight tomorrow, thought it might be a good time to take down an old test and review it. Is there any way to go through with this?

Any idea why the Questions Table section of the Analytics pages says "No LSAT PrepTests scored yet. Score some LSAT PrepTests to see analytics on this page." right below the list of my 29 completed and scored PrepTests?

Any Venezuelan on here?

Hi guys,

I'm applying this upcoming application cycle, and I have a question regarding LORs. Do I need to wait until the applications officially open, to submit my recommender information via the LSAC website? Or can I submit sooner than that? To specify, I mean when you fill out the recommender information and submit it via LSAC using the CAS system. I'm assuming a link gets sent to them where they can submit their letters? I just don't want to send the link too soon and it not work. Is it safer to just submit the recommender information once applications are officially open? I hope this made sense!

I am taking the August or September LSAT. I am trying to aim for 160+ and want a study buddy where we can hold each other accountable. So far I have only taken a diagnostic test and plan to take more PTs in the coming weeks.

Salaam I was just wondering if there are any Muslims who are planning to take the LSAT this fall and would love to be in a study group together that meets regularly. Message me or comment on this post so I can see how many people are interested and then I can create a groupchat or we can be study buddies.

Edit:

Thank you all for responding! Here is the link to slack I created

PS: I am a sister so if you don't feel comfortable with that, that's okay! I'm just trying to create a muslim community for anyone who is planning on taking the lsat this fall.

Due to popular demand we decided to move over to discord. Here’s the link for that:

Thanks again for showing interest and inshallah we will get the scores that we want!

Hi all! I wanted to know if anyone else is struggling to focus while studying. I am finding that the lack of focus is leading to procrastination. Does anyone have any tips or suggestions on how to remedy this. Thank you!!

Anyone here in Sac studying for August or beyond? Would love to form a group.

Hi everyone, when I registered for the August LSAT I selected Friday as my preferred test date. However, I was just scheduled for work this day. Does anyone know how I can select the saturday day instead? Do I do this when they send out the email to select your day/time? Help please thank you!
