I was so ready to have my score today but I just did the writing this past week (I know, dumb) and it seems like they have a backlog for approving writing samples and it could be a long time till I have the score! Does anyone have any info or idea how long it might be? My writing status says results pending. To make things worse I feel like I might've slipped up and not shown both sides of my scratch paper in the room scan! Am I doomed to do the writing over again? Is it gonna be weeks without my score?! I am probably needlessly stressed but I was so hoping to have my score today!!!

Hey everyone! I am looking for some awesome strategies on improving timing for LG. I noticed that most of the time, I can do LG to complete perfection in blind review or when I practice untimed (bad habit, I know). But during timed conditions, I ALWAYS run out of time from spending too much time up front on the first game. The only thing that has made somewhat of a difference thus far is doing all of the "if" questions first and then going back and doing the other questions that don't present new info. So if anyone has any time-saving tips I would be forever grateful!!!

Hey everyone! I just checked my admission ticket and it is blank on the testing center and states LSAT FLEX on the testing center assigned. I know I specifically chose a center closest to home so I was wondering why it is blank and if this will update once the admission ticket becomes available to us. Thanks everyone!

Hey guys I took the October LSAT flex and took the writing section yesterday. I figured my score wouldnt be ready today but i checked anyways and on my LSAT writing page it says the exam was "initiated" but i finished it and hit submit so I'm a little confused. Does that means I took it and I'm awaiting confirmation of approval? How would I know if it gets flagged. Will I get an email?

Hi All!

Looking to find a study buddy or group (the more the merrier) that would be open to working together and helping each other out towards doing as well as possible on this January's LSAT. I'm currently about half way through the 'Sufficient Assumption & Pseudo Sufficient Assumption Questions' section and am starting to struggle a bit for the first time in this course. Would love to set up maybe a group me, google doc, and maybe hold weekly video chats to really get the most out of this program and help one another make it as immersive as possible. Let me know if your interested/ have ideas to add! Thanks in advance!

Best of luck,

Sal

Hi Everyone,

So I took the August LSAT and did well, well enough to reach the top 75% in my target schools. Then I took the October LSAT and had the DREADED 4th game in the LG section that was UNBELIEVABLY hard which I think contributed to my lower score in October. Logic Games are usually my best section. My score dropped 6 points in October. Should I write an addendum for this drop or does it not matter?

Hi - One of my letter of rec writers requested to see my personal statement. They asked back in September and I said I would have it by mid-Oct. Now I still don't have it written yet or even a draft. I'm not sure what to tell them, but I also need to cram for the Nov LSAT so I don't think I could get it together soon enough.

Has anyone else been in this position/have a suggestion on what to send them? I was thinking like maybe send potential bullets of what I want my application to round out to? idk

So I'm taking the November LSAT and my score had slowly been increasing with each PT and I was scoring in the low 160s and starting to climb even higher, I took a PT yesterday and out of nowhere I got a 154, I bombed the LR and RC hard and with the test so close I'm kinda freaking out, idk if I should cancel my test or just ignore this PT or what. Any advice?

I have to share this, I’ve been back and forth with this LSAT for a long time. I just need to share that I have siblings that are lawyers and I can tell you that they have no time for living. I’ve become more aware of it lately. I’d highly recommend that everyone considering becoming a lawyer really look into the profession and the time that it will take from your life. I have decided today after really noticing and seeing the time, effort, dedication, and family sacrifice it takes to be a successful attorney that it’s not the profession for me. It just “clicked” today. You have to know what your getting yourself into. Thanks for reading, just my two cents.

Hey fellow LSATers,

I'm scheduled to take the test in January, and started studying the first week of October. I average about 2 hours during the weekdays and 8 total on the weekends (~20hrs per week). It's a schedule I've been able to stick to really well.

Its tough to balance studying and working full-time. Has anyone done something similar/have any tips? At this point I have kind of accepted I'll have to re-take the test again with more rigorous studying, but I want to give the January one my best possible.

Appreciate any help!

Command F

I have read that you are able to use command F on the exam. First, is this true. And second, does it help, or have they designed questions around this on the newer flex tests (if you have taken one)? #help

I separated from the Air Force about three years ago prior to the birth of my third child. Since then, I have been a full time student and stay-at-home-mom. Should I address this in a resume addendum? There will be an almost four-year gap in my work history at the time of my application, and though I was a student during this time, should I let them know why I did not work or volunteer much from early 2018 to early 2021? To add an addendum, or not to add an addendum? That is the question.

Hello everyone!

I hope prepping for your admission essays are going well. I have come across an essay in which I need to answer a hypothetical scenario regarding plagiarism in a colleague. I was wondering if anyone has any tips on how to tackle these.

Thank you!

Hi!

So I applied to my top school yesterday (T7-T11) and felt pretty good about my app even though my lsat is low for them. Today I got approved for accommodations on a retake, and I am just kicking myself. Scores come out Nov 24. Is there any chance they won’t get to my app before the new score?
