Probably something odd to be concerned about...but can we go to the bathroom during LSAT flex? I have a GI condition and I need to go when I need to go. So since we don’t get any breaks, Does anyone know how that is going to work?

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a few people who would like to study in a group setting. My main objective for studying in a group is to help each other process answer choices and question stems. Sometimes I get too caught up in my head and overthink things, so this study group would be beneficial to others who do the same. I'm comfortable with setting up study sessions via Skype, Zoom, or Facetime. I personally study every day to prepare for the November sitting so, if you're interested, please reply or message me. I'm looking to start Saturday/Sunday, on a weekly basis. If you're serious about studying also, then you're the person/people I need in my group. Hope to hear from you guys.

I'm located in EST btw.

Hi everyone,

I'm taking the August Flex and don't exactly have a private/quiet place to study in my house due to COVID. (I'd have to ask my roommates to leave for a few hours and we're on a busy street with frequent sirens and dirt bikes.) Has anyone taken the Flex exam from a hotel or Airbnb? If so, was it worth it? It seems like a great option for privacy, but I'm a bit worried about WiFi services being out of my control in case I encounter any technological issues during the test. I'd love any insight/affirmation anyone may offer!

Thanks in advance,

S

Hello!!! I just wanted to say thank you to everyone on 7sage! I got a 168 on my LSAT back in May and I just got accepted into Sandra Day O'Conner School of Law in their Honors program! Thank you so much everyone for your help, keep the grind going. Eventually you'll reach your goal with enough time!

I'm registered to take the October Flex and will probably also sign up for the November test as well. I really want to get in to Boston College, whose 75th percentile for GPA is 3.73 and 25th percentile LSAT is 161. My undergraduate GPA is 3.82 but I am worried about my LSAT score. I have gone through most of the Powerscore Bibles and have only taken 4 PTs but they have all scored in the 150s. Do I have enough time to get my score up to the 160s by October/November? I'm thinking I should review the PS bibles and take a lot more PTs and maybe I could improve? Or should I wait until next year to make sure I get a good score so I have a better chance of getting in? I really don't want to wait 2 years to start law school, but BC is the only school in Massachusetts with the JD/MSW program I want to do so I really need to get in. In the PTs I did do I lost the most points on Reading Comp and Logical Reasoning. Any advice would be very appreciated

Does anyone know of a complete of schools that guarantee financial aid to applicants who are accpeted under Early Decision? I.e., Northwestern will give 20k to any student admitted under ED? It seems to be at random, and I am trying to avoid searching each and every school's policy. Thanks!

Hello all. Just wanted to get some insight from other people. I'm trying to shoot for a local law school and hopefully, get in. I graduated undergrad in May 2020 with a 3.87 GPA. However, my LSAT on file is 150. The 25th percentile of the school is 151 or 152, cant remember at this moment, and their 75th GPA percentile is 3.6. I have letters of rec coming from prominent professors in their field and they are decently well known in the academic community here. Let's say my personal statement is well written and such. What do you think my chance would be of getting accepted? I don't care much for scholarship because in-state tuition is very affordable. Sure would be nice, but I do not want it to be considered for this situation. I simply want to see if people think I can get in. To reiterate:

GPA is 3.87

LSAT is 150

Law School's 25th LSAT percentile is 151-152

Law School's 75th GPA percentile is 3.6

Does anyone find any substantial benefit of reading just passage A first and immediately going into the questions before reading passage B? I have adopted that strategy, but I sometimes feel like I'm just wasting more time having to go through the questions twice than I would otherwise. I know it's different for everyone and we all have our preferences, but is there any general consensus on which strategy works best for most people?

For this question, I believed that answer D was the correct choice. I reviewed this question three times and cannot understand how E, "Many people in the US regard the social responsibility of big business as extending beyond providing consumers with fairly priced goods and services" is the correct answer choice?

Access PT Notes

I've created lots of notes using the note column on every question during BR. But I cannot seem to copy and paste those notes to a word document, or share it with anyone. Was wondering how I could save them to my computer.

Hello!

I've gotten fully immersed into most of the LR lessons and have been working through problem sets for practice. I'm finding it challenging to identify when to use lawgic (ie. when it will be helpful vs when it's not really a great use of time). For example, the MBF question, I did not use lawgic to identify the correct answer choice. It probably would have taken me much longer to work through using lawgic, whereas I identified the AC in like 30 sec without it. So, I'm wondering if anyone else is struggling with when to use lawgic in questions, or if anyone has any suggestions or strategies they use when reading questions that they can quickly interpret whether using "lawgic" will be helpful vs not helpful?

Also, another lawgic question: In the MBT question below, the lawgic threw me off with the second sentence. When I watched JY's explanation, he says the "whether or not..." sentence is irrelevant and therefore we don't need to pay attention to it. I feel like I'm missing something about lawgic, because I couldn't determine what to do with that sentence. Because it threw me off when I was trying to sort out the lawgic, it took me a good 5 minutes to solve without it. Is there a way to know confidently which sentences to eliminate and which are important to keep when solving these question types using lawgic? Or does it just come with practice?

When I took the LSAT writing section, I was happy with my response of about 275 words. However, I have since seen several posts on the internet stating the writing section would be 600-800 words, while only one post said it was okay to have 380 words. Is my 270 word count okay, or should I redo the writing section when I retake the test later this month? Thanks.

Hey everyone, has there been any word as to whether the November 14th LSAT will be "Flex" or the traditional format of in-person proctoring? The registration deadline for the October 3rd LSAT-Flex is tomorrow so I was trying to weigh out my options and decide whether to sign-up or not.

Thanks in advance to those that respond.

I took the January 2020 LSAT and was not too impressed with my score, and it would be a gamble to apply to my top school with that score. I plan on retaking it again sometime in the winter season. My question is, if I apply and get rejected with my current score for the Fall of 2021 semester, could I reapply for the same semester with my updated score? Or if I receive a rejection, is that final for the semester?

Hey guys!

So I have been studying for awhile and have seen increased scores/improvement with my RC and LG sections. However, I don't know what it is about LR, but I just can't seem to do well on those sections :( I literally always get -10 on every LR section I do without fail (it is definitely my worst section), and I don't know why I feel like something just isn't clicking. I really want to get down to -5 before the October exam. If anyone who does consistently well in LR is willing to work with me or also needs help/wants to figure this out together, hit me up! I'm getting a little discouraged, but I wanted to try this forum out to get my motivation back up haha

Thanks for helping ya girl out 😊 🙏

    I’m taking the October Flex and I have a hard time on RC on the computer reading on the screen and not being able to write any notes on the passage. I currently am practicing on the Problem Sets which I printed out and am doing much better than I have done on RC sections on practice tests. Is this a good sign that I’m getting better, or would it be more beneficial if I practiced on the computer since that’s how the test will be?
