LSAC said they would be sending login credentials today at noon, but I have yet to receive an email. I tried emailing and calling LSAC but the lines are busy and I got an automated email back. I'm just stressed because there is only one day I am available to take the test and I want to make sure I get that day. Let me know if anyone else is having issues with this!

Hi guys, do you know whether it's FREE to reschedule time slots on ProctorU?
Not to reschedule the whole test to another month, but to reschedule it within a day.
I'm trying to call the LSAC at 215-968-1001 to change my test date, but the line is continuously busy even though it usually has an automated menu. Is anyone else having this difficulty? I'd like to change it to Nov test, but the registration deadline is tomorrow, so not sure how I'm supposed to change it by then.
Did anyone get that supposed email that they should've sent at 12? I didnt see it in my inbox. (I know that it's possible to do it early. Just feel a little insecure without the email)
I am currently in a bit of a panic because I made the decision to pursue law school for the 2021 Fall term only at the end of July of this year and I am not improving my LSAT much at all from my diagnostic. I am taking the Oct LSAT (almost certainly erasing my score) and the Nov LSAT.
I am currently PTing at about 148-150. My Blind Review scores are closer to the mid-upper 160s which. I am hoping for a 158-160 for the schools that I am applying to, as most of them have a median of 155-157. I am becoming less confident with my abilities to reach a 158ish by Nov.
How much will I be hurting/helping myself if I test in January and apply closer to February? Or is it more wise to hold off a year?
Any thoughts or recommendations are more appreciated than I can put into words. Thank you.
175 on the August Flex!
However, I've already paid for and cannot get a refund for October. I think there's a 50/50 chance I could improve on 175 based on my PTs, but therefore a 50/50 shot I score worse. Really hoping to earn as much scholarship money as possible, so I think improving that score would be beneficial. But my question is, is there risk to a retake? That is, if I get a 172, 173, will that hurt my chances at a top school?
Further context maybe relevant is I have a low (3.36) gpa from a top ten undergrad.
What's the difference between different days? Like I signed up for thurdsay for October because I was like, all things equal, more time is better for me but not if there's an increase in difficulty? This is a huge concern that I can't find any information and I'd really appreciate any information on the difference in test experiences between the days. Otherwise I'll take the 3rd, I just found out that you can take it later in the week. obviously this is time sensitve.
Hi! I was wondering if anyone used focusmate and wanted to join a group for 7sagers
Focusmate is a productivity website where you get to work silently with other strangers.
Add your focusmate email if you are interested!

"I’ve taken the LSAT twice in one year now. First one, I scored 140 in May. Second one, 145 in August. I’m debating if I should take the November flex now and max out my third attempt. I cannot seem to score higher than a 147 in practice exams. I had Kaplan course and 2 tutors. Still no progress. My undergrad GPA was a 2.67, so I need to get the highest possible GPA.
What do you suggest? Take November? I want to be considered for Spring start for a school in Texas and I have time to take off right now."
So I took the August flex and completed my writing sample on 9/11. Unfortunately, my writing sample results are still pending so I have not received my score. I am currently going a little insane and pretty restless. I have not been able to get anything productive done due to the anxiety surrounding score release. Any tips for maintaining sanity and work ethic during this time ? I'm thinking of starting my applications but having a bit of trouble on the motivation front
Hello everyone! I took the August Flex as my first LSAT attempt, and so I have the option to preview my score before deciding whether to keep or cancel the score. I did very badly and am quite disappointed, will definitely be retaking it but I was wondering if there was any negatives for law schools if I do cancel the score? There seems to be some type of popular consensus to not cancel the score but considering this is a new feature I figured I'd just ask! I'd appreciate any advice or recommendations, thank you!
So I’m hoping to take the November LSAT and then apply to UCLA. I’ve been trying to do some research to see what score I should be aiming for to realistically have a chance at getting in (My gpa is a 3.7 I believe). Looking online has shown the median LSAT score to be anywhere from 160-170 and I was wondering if anyone here knew of a more precise number to aim for as my minimum?
PT 63/ LR 7/ (C)
I fully understand why (B) is an answer, but I think (C) is also plausible.
The argument is talking about 'symptom' and (A), (B), (D) and (E) are about 'symptom'.
(C) is about 'host animal' not 'symptom'. Isn't it flawed?
So I set an alarm to get up just before 1 AM local time to register for a time for the October LSAT Flex as soon as registration became available. At 1:10 AM local time I got the email, immediately created a Proctor U account and tried to register for a time. No times available anywhere within a 6 hourish range. I asked for chat support to schedule me a time. I specified noon local time on the 8th. I was given the option of the 9th at 730ism AM, or late night on the 8th so that I would be taking the exam after midnight locally. How are they this unprepared? I registered for neither and am trying to contact LSAC, but I can not reach them by Skype on the phone since they have blocked Skype number so no resolution thus far. It is now 2:15 in the morning and I have work tomorrow. Still trying to figure out what to do. This is unacceptable.
Skipping my only hour of lunch break to sign up for the lsat flex and the email is MIA!!! Use this post to vent about lsac :)
I've recently made my way into the PT70s, and I so far I've been scoring in the lower 160s and BR in the high 160s. This is freaking me out a bit, since in previous PTs I've managed to average in the high 160s, and even a couple 170s. I'm taking the October Flex, and it's only a couple of weeks away. So if I'm doing something wrong, I need to figure it out now.
I think so far my biggest issue here is with LG and RC, since at least for LR I've been quite consistent with getting -4 and -5s. For LG, however, I've found that the PT70s have more unconventional LGs, and that often makes me unable to finish all the games on time. As for RC, I'm either going through the passages too fast and missing some questions, or I'm too slow and failing to finish the section on time. Either way, I think time is the biggest limiting factor on my LG/RC performance.
That being said, are there any tips on pacing or increasing performance on RC? I didn't go through with the RC Core Curriculum because I joined 7Sage later in my prep. process, so I might have missed something from these videos. Anything helps! Thanks!
Hello everyone,
In college courses, I had a 3.95 GPA (higher if you count courses taken at other universities over the summer). Unfortunately, during my senior year of high school, I found myself very depressed. Due to this, I didn't try as hard as I should've (I couldn't) and got bad grades in college in the high school courses. Thus my LSAC GPA is only a 3.85. Will admissions have encountered this situation before and simply weight the college courses more?
Hi everyone !
I have been study for the LSAT for the past eight months. I noticed a lot of improvement with LG & LR. I’m very frustrated though because I’m capable of getting a -2 on LG & a -5 on LR but every time I take a practice test , it’s like these months of studying have not been showing up, but the thing is that I’m capable of doing the questions !! I just cannot do it under timing conditions & it’s making me so angry. I don’t know what to do at this point , I feel like everything I have been studying hasn’t paid off , yet it has because I see improvement , just not with time. If anyone has any advice on what I should do, please tell me. I am just frustrated at this point.
Hey friends,
I took the August Flex and know I can do a couple points better on October. If anyone is in the same boat or just looking for people to LSAT vent with (much needed), feel free to DM me or reply here so we can get a little group going! Cheers.
Hi all!
I'm registered for Nov LSAT thought I would be in US by last week.
But the situation has changed and apparently I'm not in states.
Is it available to take a test for US/Canada but from outside of those countries?
Please share your info!
Why are answer choices A and D incorrect? Thanks in advance!
Hey everyone!
So I am registered for the October Flex, and the signup process begins tomorrow. The days available are Saturday the 3rd, Sunday the 4th, Tuesday the 6th, or Thursday the 8th. Anyone have any advice on which day to pick (i.e. to avoid longer wait times, any other relevant factors I should consider)? Thanks!
Any idea when exam schedule will be released for November LSAT?
I'm wondering if anyone has any advice on how to spend the last 2 weeks before the LSAT? Should I focus on reviewing more or doing as many PTs as possible? I have only taken 9 PTs and my highest score was a 161 which is what I am aiming for at the very least. I'm very anxious about taking the test in 2 weeks so any advice would be very appreciated!!
Hi guys! Quick question. November will be my first time taking the LSAT and I understand they watch you via camera? Are you allowed to have a beer while taking the test? Having one around relaxes me and significantly improves my score!
