ABS verifiers

do i need to contact every single one of my verifiers and let them know im adding them to my application?? also, how would i list something on my abs that i cant really "specify" hours by week/month.... for example, I'm a volunteer for my city, I volunteer for city events/shifts/programs sporadically as they become available on the city app. each event has different people overseeing it. how would i list this and who would i add as a verifier for so many different volunteering events?

Hello everyone,

My name is João, and I scored a 171 on the June LSAT. I’m currently offering LSAT tutoring focused on helping students identify and eliminate recurring mistakes through a structured, detail-oriented review process.

As a non-native English speaker, I understand the specific challenges that can come with mastering Logical Reasoning and Reading Comprehension. My own preparation involved breaking down every mistake carefully and building targeted drills to fix weak patterns rather than just doing more practice tests.

What I offer:

  1. Free initial consultation to analyze your current performance and identify key improvement areas

  2. Detailed review of your PrepTests to detect recurring mistake patterns

  3. Personalized drills tailored specifically to your weaknesses

  4. Customized study plan focused on efficient score improvement

  5. Strategy development for Logical Reasoning (my main strength)

If we are a good fit after the consultation, my rate is $20/hour.

This is best suited for students who are around the 150–160 range and want to break into the 160s or 170s with a more structured and analytical approach.

Feel free to reach out if you’d like to set up a consultation or ask any questions.

Best, João

I'm trying to score in the high 150s and maybe even break 160 by November. My plan is to apply to schools like American and Catholic up in D.C. My undergrad GPA is a 3.9 and I have T3 softs. This test has been extremely difficult and humbling for me, so if I can somehow get a high 150 in my October or Nov attempts, I will be ecstatic. (currently have a 152 on file..)

I'm just wondering if applying by late November will drastically change my admissions and tuition help outcomes. Would appreciate anyone's advice!

Also a side question, would I have a shot at top 100 schools with a 152? Thank you!

Hey everyone! I have had a wild ride in studying for the LSAT... After my 4th attempt, I decided to start over completely with 7 Sage, thanks to my friends' advice!

I'm definitely improving on my accuracy and timing, but I think I can do even better! I have started a wrong answer journal in a little red notebook, with each page explaining why I chose the wrong answer, what's wrong about that answer, why the right answer is right, and why I missed the right answer. I want to do better at understanding the patterns in my wrong answers, so I can address them.

However, the way I'm currently doing it, identifying patterns is not happening. Does anyone have a method that works really well for them, or maybe even an app that's worth it? Any advice or suggestions on formatting wrong answer journals would be very helpful! Happy studying!

Hi! I scored a 168 in June and will be taking the August and potentially September exams. I'm stuck scoring around 170 and would like to bump my score to a 173. I'm looking for a few tailored sessions to help me break through my plateau.

Bonus points if you've had experience working with students with ADHD!

*In the recorded videos section

I don’t keep track of the videos that I’ve watched and ones that I’ve not watched yet so I was hoping we could get some sort of symbol or gray out link that tells me I’ve watched foundational basics 101 logical reasoning or some such like that. Please and thank you.

RC line citations are no longer highlighted for you.

They used to be highlighted in the old interface, making what you're asked about easier to spot. Now you have to find the referenced text yourself.

OLD, EASIER:

NEW, "IMPROVED":

You'll want to use a combination of the search box and plain ol' counting sentences and paragraphs to find what you're asked about now. You'll get used to it.

A few other updates to match LawHub's behavior:

  • Masking mode resets when you switch questions.

  • Clicking a selected answer doesn't de-select it, and you can't eliminate a selected answer in masking mode. To de-select, pick a different answer or click reset response.

  • You can't select an eliminated answer — you have to unmask it first.

I just scored a 180 on PT118.

It's really satisfying when you start to intuitively recognize the overall patterns of the questions and answers and feel increasingly confident in your choices. I've also learned that no matter how much I might want to stubbornly stick with a difficult question until I get the answer, just leaving it alone and going back to it later with a fresh perspective really has helped.

I take the LSAT in 20 days. In the past 3 months, I've done the following: 139, 142, 149, 151, and 154. Is it possible to get to a 157-160 in 3 weeks if I lock in and knock it out? I've never studied, I just take a practice test occasionally. I need to take it seriously.

am I the only one who finds that when I highlight on RC, when I scroll the interface glitches and randomly scrolls up on its own? it's weird and honestly slows me down.

Is this real?

Please tell me this is not real? Your saying I can get an online psychologist to approve me for documentation to get accommodations? I am all for accommodations for those who need it, but what is stopping someone from just answering in a way to be approved? Ugh

They claim on their website a 98% success rate in receiving accommodations, and tell you what you need to score on their anxiety questionnaire to increase your chances of eligibility. I honestly hope this is not real?

I’ve been studying for about 7 months on my own and have hit a brick wall. I think it’s time to bring in a tutor to help me get to where I need to be. Unfortunately all the tutors I’ve been running into are charging an arm and leg. I’m literally only able to take this exam 1x with the fee waiver and don’t want to blow it. Please send me some realistically priced tutors. I’m stuck in the 150s. Trying to see if I can at least squeeze into the 160s for the August lsat. Literally losing my mind please send helppppp.

I just scored a 167 on PT138.

Started off with a 141 and this is my highest score yet. Pretty dang proud of myself, but I am still struggling to trust the AC I choose and end up choosing the wrong AC. Any advice? (Ignore the BR)

26

So when I started taking tests I was taking the old tests and regularly testing in the 160s and BR in the 170s but now that I’m in the new tests I dropped like 10 points and am panicking 😭 If that happened to you too, how long did it take for you to get back to the old test scoring range? 😬

Thoughts on studying with older PT's?

I will be writing the LSAT in 3 weeks and it seems I have almost burned through all the LR and RC sections/drills. I'm considering editing my prep tool setting to start using the excluded older tests, but I'm unsure if getting used to the older style right before my test would disadvantage me? I don't mind redoing old LR sections if people find it helpful, but I'm unsure if redoing RC sections would be helpful since I usually remember some of the answers. Let me know if you guys have any suggestions!

How To Focus Better

for my peeps who work full time besides studying and who work in something they are passionate about, any tips on how to turn off your thoughts, worries and concerns from the work day? I still think about my clients and what to do the next day and I find my studying quality to suffer. ill take any tips to improve focus and staying on track, thank you!

also tips on how to make the lsat something one is excited or enjoys doing would be really appreciated! ive heard from high scorers they begin to love the lsat, and I am a firm believer of mentality and focus while testing being huge in accuracy.

AI Making Practice Questions

I have gone through all of the LSAT questions. Do you think I should ask AI to make me some new/fresh ones? How reliable will those be if I upload old LSAT exams for AI to base the questions off of?

Drake Law - Realistic Outlook

Hello! I am just looking for some advice, reassurance, or a reality check about my chances of getting into law school. In early June I took a diagnostic with 0 lsat prep and scored a 152. I have been studying for roughly one month now and had a plan to test in September and October, to get applications in prior to thanksgiving. My study plan has been going well and I am up to date. My goal score is 165+ and my cumulative undergrad GPA is a measly 2.51! Since college I have been working as a contract analyst in a national finance firm for 2 years. Working in a law related setting and working directly with lawyers and legal analysts had really driven my interest in studying law. My undergrad degree is from Drake and I would love to continue my education there.

With my stats, how realistic is this goal?

Does it help in law admissions when applying to a law school from which you graduated in their undergrad program?

Is the "Thanksgiving cutoff" a real thing or should I focus on getting the highest score possible, even if that is a later test date?

Thank you for any input you may provide!

Found a funny little bug lol [BUG]

If you activate the Keyboard Highlight mode (by clicking that highlighter on the right tool column) and happen to have Grammarly on, you can apparently change the stimulus lol.
