Hi friends, I took the LSAT in April and will now retake in June, anyone here want to do some zoom/skype joint study sessions on the weekends, until the day of the test?
I'm currently doing PTs for the June LSAT-flex and am wondering whether to print them or simply do them online. I know it is best to recreate the testing atmosphere (doing them online), but I feel like it may be better to initially do a few of them on paper and refine the skills we were taught that way. Does anyone have advice?
Game rule: If jays, martins, or both are in the forest, then so are harriers.
Correct way to write it: J and M -> H (basically J -> H , M -> H).
But for some reason I thought it was translated as "sufficient or" ( J or M -> H ).
Any thoughts on why it is (J and M -> H)?

HELP!! I'm writing in June but still desperately need to get my LR down. I've heard people swear by the Loophole book for where I am right now, but would I even benefit only a bit more than a month out from test day? Does it make more sense to just keep doing deep reviews of PT questions from 7sage and hope to see improvement?
Been consistently in the low 160s for the past month and though I have made progress, I struggle sometimes to be in the LR mindset. Sometimes I can focus on stimuli and use my methods for question types easily and other times i barely understand what i am reading. This has led to -4 last time on my lr to -10 yesterday on a pt. How do i get consistent and in the lr mindset when doing pts?
Thanks
Hi everyone, just wondering if anyone has tips on how to simulate the flex on Lawhub website. I want to get used to the interface but also since I'm just taking the flex, I don't want to do the whole 4 sections. (if theres no option I will - but just want to ask in case someone has tips on this) :) thank you!
On the other hand - has those who only practiced on the 7sage preptests interface to take the flex had any difficulty with the Lawhub interface during the exam?
Hi,
This may sound like a basic question. I was originally supposed to take the LSAT in April but I rescheduled it to June. With one month away until that test, I don't feel like I am ready and need additional lessons, time, and a tutor. Is it still optional for me to reschedule my test again to August?
Hi All!
What are the size dimensions for the scratch paper we are allowed to use on test day?
I don't understand how D weakens the argument .Can someone please explain?
So I'm able to make the majority of the inferences in logic games and I'm almost always able to finish a whole section with no pacing issues. My problem is I tend to get sloppy. Either i accidentally skip a rule altogether or I'll make the tough inference only to waste it by combining it with another rule incorrectly.
I'm trying to find the best way for me to be as meticulous as possible so i don't have this issue to begin with. But in the meantime, any strategies for correcting errors midgame without it costing me the rest of the section?
I can taste the -0 but it keeps alluding me!!!
Could someone please explain further about E?
In terms of (E), how do we know that "the biggest decreases in family income" were occurred within the period from 1996 to 2004? Because of this trouble, I picked E under the concept that I can't make an unwarranted assumption about the time the biggest decreases occurred. I can't really figure out what did I miss.
Thank you for your help.

Hi there,
I’m currently looking for a tutor to help improve my RC section. My LG and LR are very strong, however, RC seems to constantly be bringing my score down. I’m looking for someone who can teach me effective strategies. Please DM me if you can help :)
Hello everyone, realistically is it possible to increase reading comprehension practicing the core curriculum? What has been your best strategy for RC? I appreciate any feedback.
PS: Last weekend I got -16 on Logic Games and after taking my test today and studying all last week, I brought it down to -7. Progress !
My highest score I have ever gotten from a practice test was a 152. It was from The LSAT For Dummies second edition. I'm pretty sure it was not an official test, however. How accurate can I assume the test was if this was not the case? Just wondering, because I would like to know if this accurate reflects my ability or if I should just disregard it because it's not an official test.
What up y'all,
Looking for a study partner in the low 170's who can study after 5pm EST and BR PT's together! I work during the day so that's the only ideal time I can study. Was thinking we take timed RC/LR sections and review those and find gaps in our reasoning when we get questions wrong. I'm free after 5pm everyday and I take PT's sat morning. hmu if interested!
Did anyone take LSAT exam on Hot Spot.
Hi @Juliet-- , and all, I know typically it is best i have heard to read all answer choices for LR to make sure you are correct and not being tricked, but are there certain types of questions (I think parallel reasoning for example) where it makes sense to just get to the answer you predicted/that matches, and move on to save time? are there are types of questions where you should just move on?
Same question can apply to RC. should you pick right answer, or go through all answer choices for completeness? thanks!
Is it better to spend more time on the questions in RC or passage ? And if so what is a proper distribution of time ?(i.e 4 min on passage 5 min on questions)
I started my journey a few months ago. started with he LSAT trainer and couldn't read anymore and then switch to 7sage. I feel I need something different, that does not involved reading. I already have enough reading with my regular school coursework. any tips, sites that are not that expensive? I looked into Princetown, they are asking for $1,500.00 for live classes, which seems a bit expensive for me, and would give it a try if I don't score well on my June exam, for which am still scoring well below average. :( any other ideas would be helpful, thanks
This afternoon I entered a rural courthouse out in East Texas and the sheriff's deputy asked me if I had a Bar card. If I'd had one he would have waived me through security check. I heard myself say, "Not yet." That makes me smile. Y'all. These are just hurdles. This damn test (which I think is actually really fun) - just a hurdle. The years of study ahead - hurdles. Passing the Bar exam - a hurdle. At the end of it, I will practice in my small Texas town. And I'll have a Bar card. That inspired me today. We can do this.
All I gotta say is... yikes. Well bellow my 7sage PT median. I had a troubling proctor experience and this is my first take, although I take full responsibility for my score (149). My goal score was a 158+. It was incomprehensible for me to even score in the 140's. Anyways, I'm curious how everyone is feeling with their scores. With this shaping up to be an extremely competitive cycle, there's no time to waste. I will begin studying for the June exam this weekend.
Any advance, words of encouragement, or personal experiences with receiving a score so unexpectedly low would be appreciated. As a first gen 0L, I don't have people in my circle to speak to about this. Thanks all!
Hello all,
I couldn't find any info in the forums but it's really helpful for me to read out loud during RC and talk to myself during LR. Normally I stop myself from doing this because you obv can't during the normal LSAT. BUT now that it's online and in my home I'm assuming I can do this? Just wanted to double check that the proctor ppl won't flag me for it before I get used to it.
Thank you!
Hi all!
First, I'm extremely relieved/grateful for the score I received on the April Flex (173), especially because it was my second take. When I took it in January, I had a panic attack on the games section and ended up with a 167, so after that experience all I really wanted was a 173!
That said, my PT average going into the April flex was a 177. I scored a 173 on one of the PTs I took between April and January, and it was my lowest score, but generally I scored from 175-180. So a part of me is thinking I have a decent chance of getting a higher score and why not try? There's a chance too that the medians of HYS will move up for the next cycle, and I don't want to count myself out. My undergrad GPA is a 3.92 from a good school. Since law school is such a huge commitment though, why not get the highest score I can to set me up for the best admissions cycle possible?
One other consideration - I've taken every single PT available, and done every single game ever released. So I'm worried if I study for the June LSAT, I won't have enough materials and may be out of practice since I won't have fresh tests. Is that a real concern? I also truly could not have studied harder for the April LSAT and a part of me just wants to be happy about this score and move on.
Thank you so much for all your thoughts!
Hi all, I am officially done with this crazy cycle (yay!)... However, I am having second thoughts about whether to attend this fall or try and get a 170+ / re apply next year to maximize my options. Before my official LSAT score, I was scoring in the mid to high 160's and occasionally scored 170+ so I'm wondering if I should take an extra year to re take and get some work experience ? If I R&R, my realistic goal would probably be 170-173 unless something snaps in me and I'm able to get higher lol
On the other hand, I have narrowed it down to two schools I would attend for Fall 2021 but one of them is a wait list and a dream school. So realistically, I only have one contender thus far which is UCI. I hope I can get into northwestern off the wait list but with all the moving variables, it's hard to ride out that waitlist much longer. I do love the programs at UCI and I feel it's a great school for me given class size, academics, clinics, etc.. but for some reason, my gut isn't 100% on any one decision. I feel split between R&R and UCI. At the same time, I'm slowly opening up to the idea of big law which pushes me towards R&R. I am not dead set on big law but I definitely know that I want to keep that option open. I have thought about attending and maybe trying to transfer, but I know it's not an easy thing to do.. does anyone have any transfer experience or success stories they've heard? If anyone has some insight or advice on my situation, I'd love to hear it. My mind has been a dumpster truck fire of a mess (I've been very indecisive and my head is about to explode with deadlines coming up)
Edit: I will say that the fact that I did not get into my #1 choice makes me want to re-take as well. Do I HAVE to go to that law school? No, but a dream school is a dream school, right? 😪
*For those who do vote in the polls, would some of you mind sharing why you chose a certain answer? I just want to see the reasoning behind the answers and some thoughts y’all may have. Thanks !
