I just scored a 164 on PT133.

Anyone have any tips for improvement/strategizing? Context I am sadly juggling a full-time job, so my study schedule is either an entire section or drill before work in the morning, blind reviewing that section /drill after work. I usually take a PT on Saturday. My blind review is 2-3 days of me thoroughly reviewing each question, as I feel this the best space for growth. So in reality I only do 2-4 sections a week.

I have been slacking this week sadly as I am being made privy to the realities of working at a law firm (immigration, fun times :)) and have almost 0 energy in the morning, but I will get back on it tomorrow morning. I wanted to know if any tutors or anyone in general had thoughts or any advice in general based on what they see above, as well as navigating full time job + lsat prep, even though I know this question has been beat to death.

Further context, I delayed to apply next cycle, so I'm trying to take the February or April exam, aiming for a 172. Thanks for any help!!!

LSAT Prepping

Hey Guys! I need some advice. I am currently planning to take the LSAT in February 26 and need help deciding on if I should adjust my study plan. I have taken the LSAT twice, so I understand what is being asked and the structure of the test, but I struggle heavily with reading comprehension (staying locked in while reading) and timing, plus question types and second guessing on logical reasoning. I started from the very beginning with my study plan because it may be helpful, but maybe I should center the next two months on practicing and working on timing since I've gone through the actual test twice? I work full time, so my studying comes in the evenings, how should I dedicate my time? I am really only looking to jump maybe 10 to 15 points for my score which currently sits at a 146. What should I do?

I'm taking the LSAT in January 2026 and plan to submit my application to all the law schools I'm interested in as soon as I get my score. Is it too late to apply to start in the fall of 2026? I'm in Florida, and a majority of the schools I want to go to have their priority deadlines by February-March 2026. Will I make it just in the nick of time?

Hey everyone!

I’ve recently started studying and have been following a pretty strict study schedule. I’m about five months out from my test date, and I’m wondering if this is a good time to start increasing the intensity of my studying, or if you’d recommend a different approach. There are so many drills and practice tests available, and I’m unsure whether I should save the drills for closer to the test date. Any advice given is super helpful! Thank you!

Hello everyone! I took the November LSAT, and while it wasn’t exactly what I hoped for, I scored a 155. I’m scheduled to retake the test in January and would love to connect with someone local who’s in a similar score range to study together.

For reference, I’m currently scoring between 155–160 and blind reviewing at 166.

I’ve taken a month off, so I might be a bit out of practice. If you’re planning to test later, that’s fine—I'm in the same position. I won’t be applying this cycle, so I’m hoping to connect with someone to study and stay motivated together.

P.S. I am a 23-year-old black female and would feel most comfortable studying with another woman.

Any advice????

Hello, I just recently started studying for the lsat and am hoping to take the LSAT in February...

I started off at a 130 and am now at a 155 (which isn't the best I'm aware). throughout my time studying I found that i do better on preptests when I finish a question and then reveal the answer. also, I manage to do much better when i write every single thing out, but that takes a lot of time which i wont have during the real thing.

Has anyone gone through this? if so any advice would be great... my goal is to at least get a 170

Why do my drilling analytics (especially the drilling accuracy metric) only use questions I've "drilled" and not all of the questions I've answered throughout the core curriculum? Is there an advantage to this? And if not, is there a way for me to mass include all questions I answer in my drilling analytics without having to manually toggle on the below button for each individual question?

Okay I'm kind of new here. I did the intro test on this site. completed the 3 sections. IT said my score was "-X" and that's all. WTF does that mean. is that the total questions I got wrong? is that the amount of points deducted from a perfect score? there was absolutely no explanation or metric to understand exactly what that score means. can someone please advise?

When to start PTing

At what point should I start taking practice tests regularly? I'm currently on week 6 of studying, in the "theory" phase of my study plan. Thank you for any insight.

Underperformed on test day

Extremely frustrated! The LSAT has been a relatively long and stressful journey for me. My first 2 attempts I saw little improvement and scored in the mid 150s. But leading up to November, I was feeling great. My prep test range was 167-172! On test day, I felt fine not great. Nothing went especially wrong and I left the test feeling unsure but not like I melted down.

Got my score back and it was 159, just 2 points more than my last take and 8-13 points below my range. I clearly underperformed.

I’m now looking ahead to hopefully my last retake in January. Any advice on how to perform to my potential on test day? The biggest factor I can identify is taking it in person vs. replicating my PT experience remotely.

Anyone in San Antonio down to start an LSAT study group? I’m in the 160s right now, but totally open to people at any score level. Just want a consistent group to grind with.

the following is from a flaw question on seven sage...

Theorist: To be capable of planned locomotion, an organism must be able both to form an internal representation of its environment and to send messages to its muscles to control movements. Such an organism must therefore have a central nervous system. Thus, an organism incapable of planned locomotion does not have a central nervous system.

Correct Answer

  • a

    confuses a necessary condition for an organism's possessing a capacity with a sufficient one

My attempt to identify conditionals (May be False)

( Sufficient condition) be capable of planned locomotion. (Nessesary Condition indicated by must)

an organism must be able to both to form an internal representation of it's environment

and to send messages to its muscles to control movement.

but then what confuses me is what appears to be be another Necessary condition introduced in the subsequent sentence... "Such an organism must therefore have a central nervous system" again another must indicating what appears to be another Necessary condition. Then strangely the argument denys the antecedent aka the sufficient condition when it states " thus an organism incapable of planned locomotion, does not have a central nervous system.

I though confusing the sufficient and necessary condition is exactly like affirming the consequent

A>B

B

therefore A.

Logically valid structure

A>B

A

Therefore B..........

New Drill Screen Format?

Anyone else seeing this new format for drills and how they look? This screen makes no sense to me why it's suddenly so small surrounded by purple. Anyone else having this what I would assume to be issue? #help
