Hi !!! I am looking to make a big improvement score-wise in the next few months and would love some people to study with/motivate each other. I'm EST located in NYC, and am open to online calls but would be down for in person too! My PT was a 154 and I'm looking to break into the low 170s. if you have similar goals, lmk!! :)

I think it would be helpful if there were a feature that told us which lesson to review based on our top priorities. For example, let's say next to my top priority question type to review, it would suggest I review a specific lesson.

On practice result pages and the all questions page, we offer "Timing vs. target" and "practice timing" filters:

Do you use these? Which ones? When do you use them, and why? I'm especially eager to hear from users who have timing accommodations. Thanks!

Do you like PrepTest equivalent? Do you find it useful? Please let me know in the comments.

To get ahead of questions:

How does PrepTest Equivalent work?

Rather than just scaling up your wrong answers, we use the difficulty of each specific question (calibrated on years of 7Sage data) to find the 120–180 score that best explains which ones you got right and wrong. (This is a form of Item Response Theory, the method behind standardized-test scoring).

How accurate is it?

It's reliable for full sections, but fuzzier for drills. The shorter the drill, the rougher the estimate.

When I'm on normal color scheme, I see buttons (such as to flag/hide and unhide answers) change colors when clicked. However, on an accessible color scheme the buttons are the same color, making it difficult to see whether I am on answer mode or masking mode.

Could this be implemented?

Hi everyone!

I am aiming to write the test for the first time this August and am hoping for above 165. However, I would be happy with anything remotely close to score as well (162-170). I am planning to write the September exam as well, just to give myself another few weeks after the August date to see if I can improve.

For reference, I have been studying about 10-15 hours a week fairly consistently since around mid February. Most of my studying up until this point has been going through the 7Sage curriculum, reading The Loophole by Ellen Cassidy, picking at the Kaplan LSAT prep book, and I have been working with a tutor to hone in my reading comp/logic skills for the past 3 weeks.

I feel like I have been fairly successful in bringing up my score. Two years ago I wrote a diagnostic and only scored a (devastating) 127. This past December, I decided to try again and managed to get a 143. Since February, I have put in around 170 hours of studying and have managed to bring my score up to mid to high 150s on practice tests and sections. On blind reviews I routinely get into the mid to high 160s, and sometimes the 170s.

With only 2 months left till August, the countdown is on and I am open to any tips you may have on how to effectively break into the 160s before August!!!!

Has this happened to anyone else?

one day I’m drilling and my scores are fine, improving even. Then say a few days later, I’m drilling again and they are worse then ever.

Here’s what specifically happened to me:

Last Tuesday so 5/26 I was drilling a category of LR questions that need the most attention. I drilled 10 questions (on the “harder” difficulty setting) and managed to score a 7/10. I was extremely happy. (Yes I do review my wrong answers)

Then I took the next few days off from the LSAT And grinded for hours (at least 5-7 hrs) each day to with the goal of completing my 3 summer classes early so I can focus entirely on the LSAT.

Today I just got back to LSAT studying, (so about 5 days off from LSATS) and did terrible with my drills. Same category, same difficulty. Horrible scores. For some reason today when I got back to LSAT prep it was like my mind wasn’t sharp like it was before, it also felt like I couldn’t comprehend the words I was reading much less apply them critically.

Everyone online says that scores fluctuating can be a sign of burnout and that you need to take a break and basically allow your brain to take in the knowledge and whatnot.

But I did take a break, at least from LSAT stuff. For those 5 days I didn’t work on LSATS at all. Just my normal class work.

So I’m extremely confused and rather discouraged.

Has this happened to anyone else? I can’t afford to separate my time into 1 day studying the next 5 no studying you know?

Does anyone have any tips? Experience? Literally ANYTHING

Hello! I am potentially going to postpone the exam, and I have already done so before. I am not scoring exactly where I want to be yet. Is it bad to postpone the exam or should I just go ahead and take it?

Thank you!

Best PT and BR score yet leading up to my session on Thursday! Wishing everyone the best as we get closer to next week's exam. We've got this! Stay confident!!

Basically, I have used all of the RC material that's available for drills and sections. That wouldn't bother me at all if I knew for a fact that I can still improve regardless of whether I've seen the passages before or not. However, I don't really know how to feel about it. For example, I just finished a section and got the best score I've ever gotten, but I don't know if it's because I had read those passages before or because RC finally clicked for me. I will admit that I don't really remember any of the answers to the questions that were being asked, so I felt as if I was answering them myself, but at the same time I did have a tiny little notion of what the passages were about, and I felt like going through them was a lot easier because I had already read the passages before...

So, because I've never gotten a score higher than 161, I was wondering if some other people experienced this issue before and if that fact stopped them from progressing or if they were able to get better despite it. And if so, then do you mind sharing some tips? For example, now that I have read some of these passages, what should I focus on? What can I do in order to make sure that I am still improving? How can I feel confident that whatever result I get is mine alone and not just previous knowledge? Any information would be super useful.

I'm almost 3 months into my studies and my best PT is 159 untimed. Any tips on improving LR stamina and speed? I start disassociating after the first section and my focus just plummets. I can't even attempt timed PTs yet; I have never finished a section and attempted all questions. Any study tips or ways to improve focus and not experience cognitive overload? I'm trying to slowly build it up and focusing on fundamentals but wondering if there's ways to speed up the process.

For context, my diagnostic was 139 so I know I'm improving. My biggest issue isn't understanding every question but maintaining focus and processing information efficiently for multiple sections. Did anyone else struggle with this? What can help build endurance and transition from untimed accuracy to timed performance?

I am working on an LSAT schedule that will allow me to take my practice tests on Saturdays. However with the current features, it seems that you are not able to individualize the practice blocks yourself. Is there a way to add something similar to this? It would be very helpful!

Hello,

I’ve taken 3 PTs in the last 3 weeks in preparation for the June test, and I have got a 158 each time. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind this score. I think it’s ok and it’s absolutely better than previous scores I’ve got (including my 156 for the April test), but I am trying to figure out how to improve on it before next weekend. I know that’s not much time but I ran into timing issues with the last PT and just felt so fatigued that I knew I didn’t do well on the rest. I truly think I can get my score up to a 165, but what I’m wondering is if there are any tips or tricks out there that people have to suggest either preparation wise or test taking wise. I can put the time in, I’ve taken multiple PTs, I’ve done the core curriculum (or most of it), I just want to know what else I can do to push past the high 150s. I might retake in August but if I can do well enough this weekend to avoid that, that would be ideal. Thanks!

When I am doing drills and I get my results from the drill, I am noticing that I got some of the questions right the first time even though the question is circled in pink during the Blind Review portion of the drill. Is this so they try to trick you into changing your answer? This whole time I thought any questions that are circled for the Blind Review portion needed to be changed because they are wrong.

Can someone confirm please? Thank you!

I have a timing accommodation, and it would be really helpful if the Timing column after a drill or section could be adjusted to reflect timing accommodated testing conditions.

Right now, the target times are based only on standard timing. That means I have to manually calculate what the target time would be under my accommodation in order to gauge whether my pacing was actually on track.

A simple solution could be a dropdown within the Timing section that allows users to select their timing conditions. The default could remain standard time, but users could also choose common accommodation settings like 1.5x or 2.0x time.

The selected setting would then automatically adjust the target time, timing feedback, and over/under calculations for the respective activity.

For students testing with timing accommodations, this would make the timing data much more useful and provide a more accurate picture of pacing without requiring our additional calculations.

Will the updated Interface have a highlight of where to look for a specific phrase from the question stem?

Hi, I'm Nick! I work primarily with students who feel stuck despite doing a lot of practice and need a clearer system for understanding why they’re missing questions.

I went from 158 --> 178 in 4 months by learning how to diagnose my mistakes and change how I approached the test. I now work with students using that same approach, focusing on underlying reasoning issues that lead to fast, durable score improvements. I’m a good fit for students who want structured feedback and are willing to think carefully about their mistakes—not just do more questions.

You can find more about my tutoring philosophy and availability on my website. Happy to answer any questions!

Hello,

I am a 34 year old mom in San Jose, California looking to meeting and study with other people who are in the same area of life as me. I am studying in between work hours and when the kids go to sleep. If any of this resonates, lets study together!

Hi everyone,

I’m looking for some advice on next steps. I applied this cycle and was not accepted to the schools I was hoping for, including Barry Law and Stetson. I’m disappointed, but I don’t want to stay stuck in that feeling. I still want to go to law school, and I’m willing to study again and reapply stronger.

For context, I’m currently active duty military and planning to use the time I have left in service to improve my application, especially my LSAT. I’m trying to figure out the smartest way to approach a retake and future applications.

For anyone who reapplied after being denied, what helped you the most? Was it mainly improving your LSAT, rewriting your personal statement, applying earlier, adding more schools, or something else? Also, how would you recommend structuring LSAT study while working full-time?

Any honest advice is appreciated. I’m disappointed, but I’m not ready to give up.

Hello! My name is Jaida, and I am planning to take my LSAT this August. I live in a pretty small town and would love to form an online "study group". I want this group to encompass struggles, accomplishments, complaints, and community, as I do not currently have that based on where I live. I'd love to transition it over to social media and really expand from just a study group to an LSAT community, after all, we will all be peers in the legal field at some point! Feel free to join here or add me on Instagram and send me a message. @jaidaandersonnn

So for the CAS GPA calculator I'm suppose to put how many units I have for a certain grade type right? But there is a limit to 100 unit per letter grade...?? Which is a problem for me bc my special snowflake school (UCLA) used a quarter system. Yes I can convert, but I can easily end up with fractions once I do. And I just don't understand why there is a cap at 100 units when there are people who got straights A's in undergrad? Or those who double majored?

This is my breakdown:

A+ = 50.5 quarter units

A = 109.5 quarter units

A- = 15.0 quarter units

So luckily only the A+ doesn't divide cleanly for me, but I still think that it's weird to have a 100 unit cap on the calculator. Like, what if all the A+ I got were A's??? Then I'd have no way to use the calculator. But then again I suck at tech so plz lemme know if I used the tool wrong.

Also: Being able to input units ending in .5 fractions would be helpful.

I’m an internationally educated applicant applying to JD program (not an LLM because I also earned a bachelor’s degree in the United States).

LSAC is requiring me to submit my foreign university transcripts for evaluation through its own international credential process.

My situation is that I already had my foreign credentials evaluated by WES several years ago when I was applying to a U.S. university.

However, LSAC now does not accept WES evaluations and requires original transcripts sent according to its own procedures.

The problem is that my former medical university in Georgia (the country) will issue official transcripts and supporting documents, but they do not mail documents directly to third parties.

LSAC, on the other hand, appears to require the institution itself to send the documents in a sealed envelope.

Has anyone dealt with a similar situation involving a university in Eastern Europe or another country where schools do not directly mail records?

Would LSAC accept documents if the university prepared and sealed them, and I arranged courier pickup from the university? Alternatively, are there any other options when the institution will issue the documents but will not handle the mailing process itself?

Any advice or experiences would be greatly appreciated.

I've been at this horrible test for over 2 years now, and can barely crack the 150s. I've used every major platform, courses, private tutoring, and nothing moves the needle. I have a 3.1 lsac GPA so to even be considered anywhere decent is near impossible. I'm just so tired and disappointed. It feels like I'm trying to revive a dead horse with holding out hope that the 160s is possible. It just isn't at this point and I should really just pack it up, but my pride and embarrassment are in the way. The more I subject myself to this the worse I feel. I just wanted to vent here because it seems like everyone is so supportive. Is anyone else in a similar boat?

I'm registered for the June 2026 LSAT (June 5th), which means that the Argumentative Writing should be available to complete by now. I managed to login to ProctorU, download the browser and all that, successfully. The only problem is that the website won't let me register for a new exam to be able to actually complete the Argumentative Writing. Did anyone else have this problem, and if so, how did you figure it out?
