Was able to schedule for 7/14. Oddly there was only one time slot available but works for me at least to lock in the last day.
I had a 160 diagnostic in May 2020. I finished the CC about a week ago and scored a 166 with 170 BR on PTF97 and today scored a 171 with 177 BR on PT 36. My sections scores were LG -0 CR -1 and LR -9.
I am cautiously excited about this improvement.
Does anyone have advice on improving in LR? The 171 was probably just a fluke because I got a good games and reading section.
I've been stuck for the past couple weeks at the 168/9 range and have been struggling to break 170. Do you think it's possible to break 170 in the next two weeks (I'm taking the July LSAT) and does anyone have any advice on how I can improve? I've been averaging1-3 RC, 0-5 LR, 2-8 LG. I've just started the 7sage curriculum and have been focusing on LG since that seems like the easiest section to perfect.
Hi!
I was doing moderately well with the cc until I hit Sufficient Assumption questions. I cannot for the life of me figure them out. I know they are supposed to be freebies but I stare at them without having any idea where even to start mapping out the stimulus. Does anyone have any tips or tricks to really being able to conquer these questions?
Thank you!
Using chrome on a macbook. Seems to be more pronounced the more text is in the AC section and/or more pronounced the lower in the AC section you scroll. Typical? Any way to correct?
Hi all,
I just learned that we need to use ProctorU account to sign up for the time slots. I have registered for a ProctorU account using the same email that I used for my LSAC account. What I'm confused is that these two accounts are totally independent to each other, then how can ProctorU know I'm a test-taker? Should my LSAC account the same as ProctorU account? If yes, how to do so? (maybe I'm just overthinking lol)
Thanks for any thoughts!
Hi everyone! I finally received my first 100% on a timed LG set. Before, I would consistently get 100% under blind review, but was unable to perform under the clock. If anyone is struggling to close the gap between BR and timed LG score, message me. I am willing to tutor someone for free in LGs. My best LG type is In/Out.
Where are you planning to take the LSAT flex? My home is not conducive for this (7 people) and my libraries are still closed from Covid. Any and all recommendations would be sincerely helpful! Thank you!
Does anybody have data about the situation law schools are facing this upcoming year? Are more people choosing to defer? Have more withdrawn? Will we not know until August?
What’s everyone think the chances are that October becomes flex?
Hi yall, I'm in the middle of my first blind review. I can't seem to find info though on whether or not I need to select an answer during the blind review if I'm not changing it. In other words, if I think I got the answer right the first time, do I need to click the answer choice or will it automatically assume I went with the same answer. I'm trying to make sure my blind review score will be accurate
When I took my diagnostic about 5 weeks ago, it was a 140. I took my fourth practice test and despite having gotten 2-3 points increases, I'm back to 140. Clearly, devastated. I feel like I know so much more about the test (and specifically LR) and I hate that my score isn't reflecting that. I am steadily improving in RC without studying, but the opposite for LR. Can anyone offer words of encouragement about their experiences? The earlier I'm taking the LSAT is in November, so I do have a lot of time left. Am I expecting big improvement too soon? I'm hoping to break 150 by the end of July, but I did think I would be there by now. Also, I study around 3 hours everyday, but sometimes I skip days.
Hello everyone,
I was wondering, could any of you guys point me to actual LR Preptest questions that have circular reasoning as the flaw? i.e. - any questions that have "presupposes as evidence the conclusion that it is trying to establish." Preferably questions from before Preptest 39 would be really great! Thank you so much.
Looking for a tutor during the month of July. Please post recommendations. thanks!!
Hey everyone, I’ve finished the CC and have been taking practice tests to apply what I’ve learned. Since I started the practice tests, I have scored a 161 on every. single. test. I’ve tried to go back and look over the lessons but my score still won’t budge. Advice on getting unstuck??
Hey everyone,
I'm getting more and more nervous as the test day is creeping up, mostly because I couldn't reach my target score yet. I'm still scoring at the low 160's and BR'ing around low 170's. I average at around -5 in each section and I'm looking for ways to use my remaining time most efficiently to boost my score.
I have been taking 1 PT every two weeks during my prep stage, and I recently got it down to 1 PT every week. Now I'm wondering if next week (the week before the LSAT!) I should take 2 PT's for extra practice OR focus on problem sections that I'm more likely to see results in, being LG and LR, and drill individual sections. I thought I could divide my days into two dedicating one half to LG and the other half to LR for example and do only 1 PT for that week as usual.
The same question goes for the week of the LSAT but this time it is should I take one PT and focus on that or drill ONLY timed LR and LG sections.
And on a side note, while I feel like I finally have a good grasp on LG, the best score I've got so far was a -3. I seem to be losing points due to stupid counting/diagramming mistakes or going too fast on questions that required more time. I don't do such mistakes when foolproofing so I'm wondering if for the last weeks I should be taking fresh LG sections and then BR/review them exclusively to see the quickest results.
If anyone has other recommendations or words of advice I would appreciate them so so much.
Thanks and happy studying :)
Hi,
Can you please explain why answer choice D is considered incorrect? I know the correct answer is B, but would like further explanation!
Thank you!

Whenever we are given [P→C] argument. I tend to see [C→P] as a correct strenthening answer choice. I understand that such answer choices try to a create connection between P and C, but isn’t this a negation flaw?
So in almost every PT I've taken, I do better on the first LR section than the second one.
I'm talking 3 wrong answer choices in LR1, and like 6-8 wrong answers on LR2.
is LR2 harder, am I just burnt out by section 3, or am I just insane?
I have an incredibly difficult time understanding a stimulus that is science-based or involves numbers. I found that PT5.S1.Q12 gave me an incredibly hard time due to not understanding the stimulus. I ended up having to draw out pictures, to truly understand what the stimulus was saying (https://ibb.co/5GKKtHY). Once I drew it out I was able to figure it out. Under timed conditions, I know that I would not have had time to draw it all out.
I am wondering if anyone else has had trouble with quickly understanding a science/number-based stimulus, and if so what you all have found to be the most successful way to overcome this?
Thanks in advance!
Hi all, I need some clarification on how to interpret the Review Results Analytics after problem sets are completed.
After completing a problem set, when hovering over the “Answer Choices” (A, B, C, D, E) what do the numbers above each choice represent? They look like a range of LSAT scores. Do/how do these numbers correlate to the “Curve” bar to the right of the “Answer Choices”?
Lastly, what are the differences between "Question Difficulty" and "Psg/Game/S Difficulty"?
Thanks!

Why was the answer C, instead of B?

Can someone explain why B is the correct answer choice? ("The concentration of oxygen-18 in seawater is increased")
