IT's not a complete disaster... just a word is missing, but right at the front. Should I let them know? Fuuuu---

Does anyone know what time scores are released tomorrow?

I've got a pretty low GPA primarily due to an illness and subsequent death in the family where i had to step up and be the primary caretaker. Couldn't drop out but found some success working at an IB after graduation. Wondering if i have a shot at getting into Northwestern, that's basically the dream school for me.

Hi!

So I applied to my top school yesterday (T7-T11) and felt pretty good about my app even though my lsat is low for them. Today I got approved for accommodations on a retake, and I am just kicking myself. Scores come out Nov 24. Is there any chance they won’t get to my app before the new score?

Is it possible to delete problem sets from the practices on 7sage. If it is, how do you do it?

If anyone no LR tutor, I am looking for one. Thank You.

Could someone please explain to me the difference between the regular PT's and use the flex simulation.

understand it is shorter but just wondering how things are cut out etc. Are most people just using the regular versions of PT'ing instead of Flex simulation?

Thanks in advance!

Other than the negate and weaken technique, does anyone have any advice or tricks for solving necessary assumption questions? #help

Would really appreciate someone's explanation on why "C" is the incorrect answer choice

Also, if you have any tips for RRE question stems, they would be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Any suggestions on how to get better at LR? I struggle with NA and Flaw a lot, but the whole section in general is tough for me. Luckily my lsat is now a Flex, so I have some hope, but my avg is around 11-13/25. Thank you in advance!!

Hey everyone,

Does anyone know, when the registration for the November lsat will be open to select your date and time?

How do I submit my GRE score? In multiple apps I have seen a box to click that I took the test, but I don't know how to actually submit the score. I'd prefer not to pay the ETS score reports if I don't need to. I have an LSAT score that I'm submitting also. I just don't want to break any rules.

I honestly couldn't believe it. A few things I learned from that one RC section alone:

I flagged ten questions. I tend to overflag, which makes me anxious during the test. Any flagging shows that you didn't fully understand the question/passage. Ever single question that I flagged, I chose the right answer the first time, but I went back to those questions multiple times, changing my right answer to wrong then back to right for a few of the questions. Going with your gut instinct is important--I wasted time going back to each of those flagged right answers and mulling them over for too long. (The one question I got wrong was one that I didn't flag...)

I didn't write anything down during the test, but I did highlight the structure words of each passage (the words that give you directions, such as "but" and "however"). I struggle with the structure questions, and this helped tremendously. I also highlighted the main point words of each passage (no more than three words per line so that I can quickly glance them over after I've read the passage to memorize the gist of each paragraph). Highlighting ridiculous words like "recently" (especially when it comes to describing data/research) is actually important because MP questions tend to focus on descriptive words like that, and you can eliminate ACs that don't align with such a timeframe (e.g., an answer choice that talks about "traditional" studies when the passage is actually talking about "recent" studies instead). I've noticed that such descriptions largely show up once (usually in the first paragraph), and the word doesn't show up at all, so I tend to forget the passage is about recent research by the time I get to the first question.

I tend to underperform on RC during the real test. I'm hoping this -1 gives me a boost of confidence, especially when I overflag a section.

I have 2 "w"'s on my transcript, one in Calculus (self explanatory, was going to fail) and another in a Constitutional Law class. The second one was due to going through a lot of emotional trauma that semester, though the W did not hurt my GPA, should I write an addendum explaining why I dropped this class?

Hello, I need to print out some problem sets since I can't always stare at a screen. I don't have my own printer so I have to send the PDF to the central printer in my apartment building. But the printer says it won't print until I decrypt the document. When I use the password, I have to access the PDF, it doesn't decrypt the file or take away the security of the document. Does anyone know what I can do to decrypt or how can I print when it is password protected?

I have sent a message to the student services and waiting for their response, but if anyone has a quick suggestion, please let me know.

Thank you!

Do schools email you when an admissions decision has been made? I look at my status checkers about once a week. But I'm wondering if it even makes sense to if schools will ultimately be notifying you anyway via email.

Should I apply now or take the November LSAT and wait for the score release?

I'm not sure if I could improve significantly in 2 weeks for the November LSAT;

I am a UCLA undergrad. Should I apply now instead?

Anyone else worried that the election results will totally distract them from the November LSAT haha!?

Hi all- so, I'm taking the November LSAT-Flex and have been scoring pretty consistently in the 160-165 range. My goal score is a 165, which I realize isn't too ambitious compared to what I have been reading about in the discussion forums, but the biggest reason for my score fluctuations is the logic games sections and the reading comprehensions. I usually get -3 to -5 in LR depending on the day, but sometimes I will get -0 in RC and sometimes I will get -9 in RC, same with LG. I only have three weeks left, what should I be focusing on? Are there specific lessons in the curriculum I should be reviewing? I really don't know how to set up this last study schedule. I have about 1-2 hours a day during the week and then unlimited time on weekends.

*Please do not advise me to reschedule; I have already done that twice.

I am struggling to believe that by memorizing all the inferences and rules of the core curriculum LGs that I will somehow be able to do all the LGs that come at me. I have trusted in JY's process up until this point but I feel as though I have to make a leap of faith here when everything else has made sense logically. I have been diligently learning the games, memorizing, repeating, and moving on and still I get stuck and make sloppy mistakes. I think if I believe that this method will work, it will have a better chance of sticking. Someone take me to church on this please. I know that this has been discussed here before but I still don't think I've found a satisfactory answer. Thank you all!

Hey there. I heard talking through Blind Review is a great way to learn, so trying my luck! The next PT I'm going to take is 87, then 86, 85... working backwards from the most recent. I'm taking the November flex, so have to be really strategic and keep it to the 80s/most recent tests. I aim to take about three a week. For reference, my recent average is 164. I have a flexible schedule and am on Eastern Time.

Hello!

I'm in the rough draft stages of my PS and am having difficulty keeping myself accountable & think having a regular buddy to exchange drafts with via Google Docs can really help both of us! I think it would be helpful if we ask each other specific questions when we give each other feedback, rather than evaluating whether a PS is "good" or not

I have lots of experience editing essays professionally for high school students, so hopefully I can be of help

If you are interested, please shoot me a DM :)

Hey Sage community, I'm looking for some advice to shave off a few more points, and hopefully start to wind my long LSAT journey to a close. I have been studying since mid-January and went from a diagnostic of 137 to a current average of 156, with BR being in the mid 160's. I am really proud of this jump and plan to study for as long as it takes to average in the low-mid 160's. I feel really close, but I still need to shave off a few points in all areas. Flaw questions are my worst in LR and analyzing phrases in the context is my worst for RC, so if anyone has advice in these areas it would be appreciated. When it comes to LG i'm still really slow and often miss five or six questions but get them all right during BR. I'm wondering if I should go back and do some more drilling for speed, or if that will just come with more PT's and confidence?

Any advice, success stories, or words of encouragement are helpful! Thanks in advance.

Will there be a heads up given in advance as to when we will be able to schedule our Novemeber FLEX, or will LSAC just tell us when we are suddenly able to do so? Any idea as to when?

I've heard good things from people on here about getting a BR study buddy so here goes! I'm taking a PT in the next few days (taking on Wednesday, hope to BR on Thursday) and would like someone to blind review my answers with. Ideally I'll be taking a test in the high 60s (haven't decided which one yet), but I'm flexible. If you're also taking a prep test this week and would like someone to go over your blind review answers with, please comment or send me a message. Just for reference, I'm scoring around a 163 and have done all the PTs in the 80s except for 88 and 89.
