I'm wondering for those taking the October and November 2020 LSAT-Flex, does the proctor need to be in full view of you using your scratch paper? As in, does the camera need to be angled in a way to view your surroundings including the scratch paper that will be used? Thanks so much.

I saw a recent post by someone who was supplementing their 7sage curriculum with the loophole. They organized a study session, but i believe it was a while ago. I would love to meet and go over Translations/CLIR for a certain PT. Would anyone be interested?

Hey everyone! I am writing an addendum explaining my score increase (from a 167 in 2019 to a 173 this year). However, I am honestly not positive why my score increased, since my PT average remained the same in between tests - I just scored below my average the first time and scored right around my average on the second test. One reason I can think of is that I had a pretty bad headache during the first test, so that may have interfered with my concentration. Not sure whether this would be viewed as a good reason in an addendum, though. Any advice would be appreciated!

Hey all, so I am just concerned with my actual skill in LG. I just spent about 3 and a half months foolproofing every game I did within the first 35 PTs. Every game that I come back to review and have already FoolProofed, I ace it. Done in time, and every question right. I remember most of every inference, especially for more difficult games. The dilemma lies in the fact that when I arrive upon a NEW game that I have never seen before, I tend to struggle, a lot. This makes me feel as if my FoolProofing was for nothing - just because I can remember every inference that I have already seen, yet still cant make them on my own very well when I see new games. Really stressed and just want to start PTing, as I have done everything I can so far to get to that point.

Any help appreciated.

Hey All! I will keep this short. I am interested in Law School next year. I am currently enrolled in a prestigious masters program. Currently I am also cross registered at Harvard Law School (active student in class / receiving good grades)

Undergraduate GPA was 3.65 at a good school

Graduate GPA was/is 3.84 (will most likely hover from 3.75-3.90)

DID NOT TAKE LSAT

Conversion Score for GRE: 157 LSAT (High verbal reasoning and writing ATROCIOUS quantitative reasoning)

So with that said: What tier should I be focusing on ?

Hello! I've been scoring around a -4/-5 on LR the past few weeks. I'm looking for advice on how to increase my accuracy even further. I also find I spend a lot of time on parallel flaw questions and will still end up getting them wrong. I'd appreciate any advice for how to be more efficient on those. Thank you so much in advance!

Who is taking the October LSAT?

Hello! Is retaking a past exam still an ok indicator of progress? I retook an exam which I took Dec. 2019 (and haven't looked at since). I'm wondering how I should interpret a exam results of a test I'm taking for the second time. Thanks!

I struggled with learning the 21 common flaws when I first started studying them, it wasn't enough to just drill them and memorize. The flaws were more fun to learn when I matched the logical fallacies and found examples; so I did my best to create a table with just that. I'm no expert so if any of the logical fallacies don't match please let me know so I can edit! Hope this makes drilling the flaws easier :)

Hi guys, I'm just a regular, kind of fresh college graduate (only been several months since I graduated, but if you don't count that as fresh, it'd do nothing but making me sad...) looking for some study buddies who are willing to work with me on serious LSAT prepping.

After having studied by myself for almost 7 months in total (been on and off, though) and recently started getting some help from a private academy in Seoul, Korea out of desperation, I feel confident that my fundamentals are pretty good given that I consistently get very high 160s and low 170s from each BR of the recent PTs I'd finished.

But, on timed runs, I suck too bad and still make an unbearable amount of mistakes in LR and RC.

If you'd been on with your prepping seriously for a decent amount of time, you know very well how terrifying it is to be bad at this test and getting scores that you don't like to see over and over again.

I want to get out of that crap.

And I think it'd be great if there was someone who I could work with to talk about some things I've never really had any chance to share with anyone around me (as a Korean living in non-Seoul area and surrounded by only Korean-speaking people) and see the silver lining together along the way.

So, if you're interested in making a new friend to study with and open to sharing your own feelings and thoughts about this monstrous test with me, I'd be delighted to meet and make our prepping journey more fun and sweeter with you as we run towards our respective goals.

Incidentally, if you're also interested in learning the Korean language, I'd say it's not a bad bet to give a try on studying with me (I'd done some LA work back in college in an Intermediate-Advanced Korean course with a handful of only English-speaking American students. So, who knows. By the end of your LSAT studies, you might become proficient in another real-life language as well!)

I'll leave my email address below, so please shoot me a kindly email if you think this could be a good opportunity for yourself as well.

Thanks.

Hey everyone,

I range from -12 to -3 on timed LR sections on my PTs. Does anyone have suggestions? I've gone through the Powerscore LR Bible, it didn't help me much. I blind review and can usually correct myself. I just can't manage to stay consistent with my LR scores :/

Just took my first LSAT after I started studying. Since I will be taking the Flex in November, I felt taking a PT as close to possible as how it will be on test day made the most sense. So I clicked the Flex option. At the end, the score displayed seemed based on the number wrong in a 4-section test, and not a predicted score. It also recorded my score as if I had done the extra LR section. Is there a way to change this? I want a more accurate record and to not get overly excited at the end of the test.

Title says it all but until when do you guys suspect LSAC to administer the flex? Do you guys see them doing so until early next year... or do you think Nov may be the last?

Hi this is a really silly question: I can't figure out how to highlight or underline text when solving questions through the question bank/ PTs. I've tried all the buttons that are around the question page, but none seem to trigger a highlighting feature??

Anyone else still waiting for their LSAT writing to go through? I wrote the August LSAT and results are supposed to come out this Friday, and I'm freaking out a little that I won't be able to view mine. I did the writing portion August 29.

Hi guys,

Do you know when LSAC will approach my recommenders after receiving their names and contact information? So far I have purchased the CAS but have no LSAT score, in this case, will LSAC contact my recommenders?

Thanks in advance!

Hey y'all,

My PT score has dropped pretty significantly these past 5 or so tests (went from 172--> 167--> 167 —> 162 --> 161) and I've been struggling to keep up morale. Any advice on how to keep motivation high going into the last 3 ish weeks before the October test? ***For reference, I just started taking the later PTs about two weeks ago, and most recently I took PT 72 and got 161. I don't know if I'm just in my head, but they definitely feel tougher, esp in LG and RC.

I plan on taking a day off tomorrow because it could just be that I'm burnt out (have been doing 3/4 tests per week and drilling in between test days). Any tips on how to get out of this funk are very appreciated! How do you all take care of your mental health during lsat studying?

Looking for study group for November 2020 lsat

To share info and accountability partner!

Hi all, i am hoping for some advice as to what i should do the last few months for pt's before the November test. I started studying with 7sage at the end of February and got a diagnostic score of 141. I then went through the CC slowly until the early part of May. I then read the loophole, foolproofed, and worked on sections until July 1st when i took my first timed pt. I have been doing timed pt's since then once a week roughly with thorough review, foolprofing, and timed sections from 1-35 in between each test. My last three scores have been 164, 160, and 160, with BR's 0f 166-170. My concern is I have only done 11 timed pt's so far, 60-70. If i keep up with one a week that will put me at roughly 18 before November. Do you think i should be doing two pt's a week so i can get to around 25 by the time November rolls around? I see a lot of suggestions about having 25-30 timed runs under your belt before the real thing. On the flip side, if i do not score how i want in November (165+) i may end up delaying a cycle and studying until next summer. I am afraid i may not have enough clean pt's to do this if i bump it up to two a week in preparation for November. I am not sure what to do and would appreciate any feedback, thank you!

Hi Everyone. My biggest struggle is logical reasoning and timing . I’m always able to bring the answer choices down to two and then end up picking the wrong answer but the correct answer was the other choice. Please help on tips/ strategies.

I've been prepping since March using 7sage while working various jobs. When I started 7sage, I scored a 169 on a diagnostic PT (I had already studied LG quite a bit). I've been taking PTs and seeing myself slowly improve (scoring around 171-174) but the problem is my RC sections fluctuate SO much anywhere from -1 to -7. Recently, this has gotten even worse and I just scored my worst on a preptest , doing awful on RC in addition to lower on LR & LG than normal. I take the October LSAT and I can't believe after all of this time, work, and money, I've had minimal improvement. I honestly do not know what to do at this point to improve, and this is the most discouraged I've felt during my time studying and I guess I just needed to vent that. If anyone has any RC or general help for someone with only a couple of weeks left, let me know because I certainly need it.

I wonder how many words we need to write in this

I noticed that JY provides a goal time for every Logic Game, but that there is also a goal time for each question when reviewing answers. These do not always correspond. Which is the correct one to refer to?

Does anyone have an info on when/how we pick our test time for the Oct 3 flex test?? Trying to get on in asap so I can get my top priority for test time.

Title says it all? Do you guys think taking longer to study and doing it consistently 2 hours or so a day would help bring my score up? Been studying consistently for several months almost full time but am not ready yet.
