Hi Yall,
Anybody have any idea when LSAC will be releasing new tests for practice?
Hey guys, so I am testing my laptop for this weekend and I've allowed camera and microphone use, but everytime I test it, it says that camera width and height are not found. Can anyone please help me?
Has anyone used a mobile hotspot on an official exam recently? I used a hotspot when I took the exam in June 2021 and I had no issues. I don't think I let my proctor know that but my phone was in sight of the camera the whole time. I'm retaking the exam this Saturday and I just read over the rules and it says that we can't use a hotspot or VPN...I don't know if this is a new rule but I'm not really sure what to do because my WiFi does not pass the internet speed test but my hotspot does. Anyone have any insight?
I am following the 7sage syllabus but I am confused on when I am supposed to start taking the practice tests. Do I just go through with all of the syllabus and then start using them for drilling? or am I supposed to be taking one every week even if I have not learned every subject?
Hi everyone,
I'm an international candidate, and the only reasonable time I could sign up for was 5:30am local time.
Early morning hours between 2am and 5:30am were the only options I had left right after receiving the sign-in email from LSAC at around noon on May 26 eastern time (I'm a first-time test taker). I sent an email to LSAC to ask if I could schedule for an evening time, but I'm not confident that they will let me reschedule. Candidates in my country have been complaining about this time zone issue since 2020, and LSAC still isn't providing more time slot options for international candidates.
Are there other international candidates who had to take the test very early in the morning, and do you have any tips? Right now I'm performing at about 15 points below my practice test scores because I can't even finish the questions on time. (I normally finish all of the questions and have time left to review.)
I've been practicing waking up at 3:30am, have 2 hours to wake up my brain, and take a practice test at 5:30am, but it hasn't been very successful. So I would appreciate any and all tips you could share! Thanks in advance.
for prep tests 1-35, is there a timeline as to when I should take those, or can I take it whenever I feel like I need to?
Anyone else had the issue? It only started happening for me today. The chatbox icon on the lower right overlaps with the "next question" icon when I tried to do my PTs. Is there a way to close it? Thanks
Hi Everyone,
I have a downward trajectory in my GPA. My first year GPA is by far my highest year and my last year is my worst year.
The reasons for this were the following: I transferred to a more difficult school after first year and the last term of my undergrad was the first full term during the pandemic (my school didn't offer a Pass/Fail option).
Should I be worried about this?
Hey guys! I am looking to surround myself with people that share my interest for this test. If you have a spot in a pre-existing study group, or are yourself looking for a study partner, please send me a message. We can help and support each other and review sections together on discord. Lately I've been drilling LG and I'm currently PTing in the mid-150s. Hit me up!
I was doing great with this course so far. However, when i got to memorizing the invalid and valid forms. I got really confused.
First of, we dont have any sample LSAT questions where this could be applied.
I still dont understand, how is this useful in the actual LSAT? Is it actually worth taking hours to memorize??
Going through some PTs and PT 78-80 have misc. games. Are these making a come back and have they appeared in the latest LSATs?
My friend and I are planning on maybe meeting once or twice a week in person to study together. I am wondering what you would think is the best way to go about the studying. Should we watch the videos ourselves, and then when we meet, we go over practice questions relating to that specific section? Should we separately do the practice questions then discuss our answers? Should we do each one together and bounce ideas around? Should we do something else with our time that may be more efficient? I'd love to hear what you are doing or what you have done. Hope everyone is welI. Thanks :)
Did anyone else's syllabus just suddenly disappear???
Hello, I recently took my first LSAT diagnostic. I took the June 2007 PrepTest (timed, under test like conditions), scoring a 162. I missed 5 on LG (-2 that I didn't finish, -3 incorrect), 9 on the two LR sections combined (was rushing toward the end, but I actually got the easier questions wrong more often than the harder ones), and 4 on the RC (again, tended to get easier questions wrong more than the hardest ones).
I've started studying with 7Sage, aiming for 15-20 hours a week for 12 weeks with at least 9-10 more timed practice tests. How much score improvement is reasonable to expect in this case? What are some of the strategies I can use to ensure that I'm maximizing my increase and not just hovering around this diagnostic score? Planning on taking the September administration. Thanks!
I have been scoring almost perfect on LR & RC within the time constraints (-1 or -0 on both).
I can only get -6 when taking LG with the time constraints BUT when I do LG problem sets with no time constraints I get -0. Does anyone have advice for doing LG faster without messing up?
When does ProctorU open up time slots for the September and October LSAT? Should I make a ProctorU account prior to receiving an email from LSAC? Additionally, does anyone know the earliest and latest times in a day to take the exam?
I am a Month to Month User. I was working on the Assumptions & Weakening Questions Module of the Syllabus. I went to check how many videos i have left to review, but I noticed that it says I completed 77% of the core curriculum.... Which is odd, considering that my progress was just about 2% half an hour ago. I then realized that Almost all of the lessons in the Syllabus was locked and I need to upgrade to view them. I already pay about $69 a month. Is there a way to fix this?? I need help please!!
I was just finishing my chaining conditional relationships lesson, when I jumped from just under 8% complete to 80% complete. Nearly the entire curriculum has disappeared. Has this happened to anyone else?
I would like to offer help to people who are struggling or just getting started with LR over zoom or discord. My last 6 PTs averaged at 170, and I usually score around 0/-2 for LR. I am planning on taking the Sep or Oct lsat and I'm still trying to increase my score- so I am hoping that by helping others, I can also improve.
I have very open availability, so let me know if you are interested!
Anyone else just working on problem sets and everything got locked as if subscription wasn't paid. My last payment was end of May and it should last until June 21st. I'm really upset right now because I need to study, so why am I getting locked out of something I paid for?
Hey everyone! I joined 7Sage in 2016 and it's been a long, long journey, but I just graduated law school! Having been through the whole thing at this point, I thought I might have some insights people would be interested in. So, I'm going to open up a Zoom session and answer anything y'all want to ask. So bring your questions or just come and lurk. We can talk LSAT, law school, life, whatever y'all want.
Thanks to everyone who came out! Really great questions, and I hope people were able to take away something valuable. And if anyone with pressing questions wasn't able to make it, I'd be happy to answer questions in the comments, so ask away!
Did everyone else's syllabus just disappear and go to the demo version? What happened?!
Anyone interested in joining?
Due to the large volume of requests, I have just decided to post the link here:
We can all motivate each other :)
Thanks for joining!
What materials can you use on the (online/in-person) LSAT?
Can you use both pen/pencil if you like?
How many sheets of scratch paper can you have?
Can I use ear plugs to block noise?
Please try to specify the criteria for online vs in-person LSAT (if there are any differences).
Any official sources to confirm?
Thank you.
Are the future LSAT's going to be online still? Or will they transition back to pen & paper?
This site (https://www.lsac.org/lsat/lsat-dates-deadlines/june-2022-lsat) states that LSAT's are online through June 2022. What about after June?
Any official sources to confirm?
