I am wondering if it is possible to filter out the questions that I've done wrong from the question bank.

Hey guys,

I am applying to Texas public schools this cycle and I was curious if anyone has any experience on here using the Hazelwood Act. My understanding is that its a state law that grants veterans from Texas a tuition exemption for public school graduate programs. I have talked briefly with admissions people at UT and they confirmed my understanding of the program, and so, being a veteran, I was hoping I could go to law school for free (if I can get admitted, of course). Even though they confirmed how I think the program works, I wanted to post here and see if there were any vets who had gone this route, and if they actually got a complete tuition exemption for their 3 years of law school. To be honest, I can't help but harbor some doubt since the whole program seems too good to be true.

Hi everyone,

I was wondering if I am considered an "international" applicant if I have a bachelor's degree from an American college (well-known, located in the US). I am not a U.S. citizen nor a green card holder. I'm asking if I should check the box "international" when I use these law school predictors on different websites.

I stupidly have not completed the writing sample for the October exam yet but I am doing it today. With the score release day being October 23 and the fact that it can take 1 to 3 weeks to process the writing sample, I am wondering if people think I will get my score on the release day. And if not, since I purchased score preview, will I still be able to potentially cancel it before its released?

How much can be in the room for your lsat writing since they ask you to give a full room scan? Like should I move a bunch of my stuff out of view or do they expect there to be things since you’re doing it at your own house?

When you’re doing a necessary assumption question and an answer choice seems like it would be the answer to a must be true / most strongly supported question does that mean you should eliminate it?

Hello fellow 7Sagers!

Long time reader, first-time commenter, here. I just completed my second LSAT exam. I canceled my first score, which was probably for the best, because of problems related to LSAC. They didn't send enough tablets for my first exam and having to come back and prepare myself for the make-up exam just bummed me out. Anyway, I have been studying for a very long time. I have been planning on taking the LSAT for over three years and have studied (off and on) at different levels of seriousness over that period. I felt super prepared for the exam. I don't know how it would be possible to be more prepared. I consistently scored 172-173 on PTs leading up to my exam date. And, my mistakes were always something silly; a consequence of not paying enough attention to stimuli on easier questions.

During the actual exam, I felt like I was on auto-pilot. I had never experienced that during PTs. I finished each section under time and feel good about LG. But, I have no idea how my LR and RC went. I have read a few posts of other students talking about this same feeling. But, I have not found a post about whether those same students received their expected score. Can someone please tell me if this is a good thing (haha)? I feel like my intuition has been conditioned to choose the correct answer through the course of my studies. But, my post-LSAT anxiety is forcing me to seek the advice of the people more experienced with the harsh reality of real LSAT performances and scores.

Could @"Juliet --Student Service--" or maybe another instructor let me know if this is normal?

Can someone please explain these to me. I don't understand them at all and I have reviewed the lesson over and over again. I always end up picking the SA as my answer. PLEAAASEEEE!!!!!!! #help

I didn't remember any of the inferences or how to diagram the games since I originally took them back when I was really bad, but i did remember taking them, and I'm wondering if i should even count the scores from this preptest as a result.

So I'm currently going through the LG section. I'm curious to know what you guys do after each times LG section. In other words, do you repeatedly do the games until you're able to get the inferences. I'm unsure how to strategize that. Should I finish sections within the LG section and keep retesting the LG games and then move on? I plan to take LSAT in JAN so I'm hoping fixing my issue will help.

Hi all,

As a brief introduction, I took the October-flex thinking that I did not do very well on it. Although I did not have too much trouble with LR and the shredder game, the RC section (the one with Nigerian novel, EMF, privatization, fungus) took me all 35 minutes so I had no time to check on flagged questions, which were about 10 of them. Number wise, I am an extreme splitter with a 3.0-3.5 GPA and 173 LSAT from the August-flex. Due to my extremely low GPA, I wanted to increase my LSAT score slightly more by the October-flex so I will have a better chance in the admission process. Since I do not think I did better on the October-flex and I already signed up for the November-flex, I am pretty much set to try one more time in November.

Here comes my question: If I apply to law schools by the end of October, would schools delay my application when they see that I am taking the LSAT in November? Since splitters' cycles are always unpredictable and law school decisions are on a rolling basis, I really don't want to risk myself if schools would delay reviewing my application. There is no guarantee that I will score better on the November-flex, while delaying my application by a month can really hurt my chance. Further, I believe 173 is still enough to get me into some T20s if my application is reviewed before November. So I really want to make sure that taking the November-flex does not necessarily mean a one-month delay in finished application.

Lastly, I apologize for this lengthy post and any insight is appreciated!

I am clicking the link to link my 7sage account with LawHub, however it isn't working. Does anyone know how to link the two accounts?

I had to call during my writing exam because the program had cut me out. They made me do a room scan again once I was back in the program. But, while I was on the call and my phone was on the table while I did so. When I hung up the phone, I put my phone farther away to the side and under the table. Is this going to be a problem? Has anyone had a similar situation occur?

Hey everyone

I just wrote the October Flex, and I completely bombed it beyond all imagination. I was PT at around 172 (using PT 70s and 80s), and then on the real thing today, I couldn't even finish any section, with about left 5 to 8 questions blank per section. I just suddenly wasn't feeling well. My brain just won't work the second I encounter any resistance/difficulty on the questions. Now about specific sections.

RC: I read the 3rd passage, and had no idea what it said. And for some questions, I had no idea what to do to eliminate ACs. LG: I saw the last game, my brain just didn't wanna do any setup, and went straight for the questions. LR: went through the first 15 questions pretty fast, but then I suddenly found myself skipping nearly every question.

Is it normal to completely bomb the LSAT this bad on the test day? Is there any resource that you guys can direct me to for test day stuff?

Thank you in advance for any advice!

I am looking for people to revise and provide honest feedback for my personal statement and addendums! I will do the same for yours.

I have approved extended time (time plus 1.5). is there a way on this site to use that extended time to practice for the real LSAT?

Hi - I am in the high 150s and am looking for two to three study buddies to help me get into the 160 range (and help you do the same, of course). Looking to meet via Zoom to blind review a few days a week. Right now I am taking 2 PT's a week, 2 days to BR each, then a drilling day. I read a past thread on here of a GREAT method to BR in a group and would love to employ said method.

If you're interested, please let me know!

This is seriously so embarrassing, but I have been studying for going on five months now, averaging about 15--20 hours on a good week and I have taken six practice tests. The highest I have scored was a 148 once, but the last few tests were 143-145. I feel completely discouraged. I have put so much time in already and my score has actually gone down after two months of studying. I am equally bad in all areas it appears. I cannot figure out where I am going wrong or if my brain is just not meant for this kind of stuff, especially after reading that people are scoring 160 for just their diagnostic. I am signed up for the November test, and I do not know if I should push it out further, but I hear it is harder to get in if you apply so late in January. I am also going to school full time and graduate in the Spring. It is a lot trying to do both at the same time. Help! Also, I cannot figure out why I can do fine on Logic Games, but during the practice test, it is like everything I know flies out the window. My reading comprehension is also horrid, despite doing well on many practice problems.

So I am super late to the game but just recently figured out that CAS is not 45 dollars total but 195 dollars plus 45 for each school. I definitely can't afford that for every school on my list. I indicated that I did not need assistance paying for the LSAT and could afford it but dropping more than a grand on applications between their fees and CAS is something I cannot afford to do. I am worried that applying for a fee waiver will take longer than I can afford to wait to apply though. For those of you that have done it, how long did a decision take?

How tough is it to get a full ride?

I graduated in 2019 with a 3.9 GPA and just got a 162 on my first timed practice test, have been studying for a couple weeks but haven't gotten to the reading comprehension or logic games section of the core curriculum yet. I got a -10 on the LG section and I know that is typically the easiest area to improve so I think I should be able to pick up some easy points there. My target is a 170+

I am currently working full time and I find it pretty tough to go from a solid income to having to take out loans to go to law school, but if I got a full ride I would definitely consider it.

Does anyone have any guesses as to what type of scholarships these numbers could land? The soonest I can take the LSAT would be January. I am assuming it would be pretty tough to get scholarships that late in the cycle? I am willing to wait until the Fall 2022 cycle if that means a higher likelihood of a full ride to a decent school.

Thank you in advance for the advice.

I've heard conflicting advice on including those 'extra' sections (Academic Interests / Travel / Random Facts) intro your law school resume. Does anyone have some thoughts on this?

Right now I have my resume drafted as to include all three (because I have space and because I just wanted to put everything on the page and then remove as necessary).

So, I submitted my application to Vanderbilt. A week later, I emailed admissions and asked to be considered for ED because I truly thought they were my first choice. I just got my acceptance to GW, and I'm not as certain anymore about Vanderbilt. Would it absolutely kill my chances to rescind my early decision application now? Would I look indecisive (which I totally am), or would it not matter that much?

Has anyone spoken with LSAC and found out if they're leaning towards Flex for January & February? I just tried to register for January but there aren't any test centers available, which is strange because there are always test centers available this far in advance.

February has the generic "(city) area test center" listed instead of the usual specific centers while April does have the specific centers.

Hi folks! I have been studying for months and am registered to take my second LSAT in November. I'm unsure whether I should go ahead and take it in November or push it to January. My last 3 PTs were: 168, 168, 167. I desperately want to score at least a 170. I work full time so I don't have 40+ hours a week to study. I study in the mornings, evenings, and all day weekends. For people who have been in a similar situation before, do you think 30 days is enough to have that breakthrough into the 170s?

Thanks so much!

I took the GRE last summer when I thought I would be applying to humanities PhD programs, who really don't care about the math section. I did well in the verbal (99th percentile) and okay in the writing (92nd percentile), but didn't study or try at all in the math section and ended up in the 41st percentile. Should I still submit my scores to law schools? The score report doesn't even provide an overall score like the LSAT, just the breakdowns by section, so I'm wondering if they evaluate it the same way? Seems like the relevant sections to success in a legal career are writing and verbal, but I don't know.

I took the October LSAT-Flex and I'm still waiting on my score. If I do well, I might just play it safe and not submit GRE scores at all. Thoughts?
