Just opened my score from the May Flex and I wanted to come straight here and extend a huge THANK YOU to the community. I could not have done this without all of you. I have grown so much through this process. Respect the grind!

Can you read out loud during the LSAT Flex exam? I image you can't in a testing center but how about for LSAT FLEX. Thank you for your help.

Not sure what I should do.

Goal is T14 with money. Gpa is 4.0. To play it safe lets just say average - slightly below average softs.

PT scores were all over the place, with a 166 a week before test day with many 170s weeks and months leading up to it. Average of last 5 before test day was 169.6.

I have a month left until July. Should I just take it and run? Or should I try again.

I'm a slow reader by nature, and years of school have pretty much taught me to skim everything I read for the main points to combat that. But studying for the LSAT, and especially LR, I've learned it's so important to read every single word to get the full meaning. When I have all the time in the world and when paragraphs aren't that complex it's usually not a problem.

The problem comes under timed pressure. I usually end up panicking and skimming to get main ideas. I end up missing questions that I easily could have gotten without that pressure.

While reviewing, I often find words I missed like "some" "many" "significantly" or "likely" that were the key to getting the question right. In Blind Review I really only miss 1-4 in LR and timed I miss more like 6 -10. The disparity is even greater in RC where I usually end up guessing on an entire passage for lack of time.

Did anyone else have similar struggles while learning to read for the LSAT? Are there any types of drills that helped? Or is it more of a long-term mindset change? Or any advice to overcome the mental aspect of the LSAT and avoid panicking would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you guys!!

I am wondering if I should take the LSAT again... I have studied for about a year now. My average score has been 154, but the week before the test I scored a 161. I was very excited and positive that I would do decent on the LSAT-Flex.. but I ended up with a 151.

On the day of the test, my test was delayed 30 minutes and I had to sit there and wait in silence until I was matched with someone who could conduct the test with my accommodation. It really messed with my nerves the first section, but I used all the skills I could to calm down.

I was really hoping to only sit for this one time. I feel pretty burnt out, but I was shooting for some schools around T-14 to T-30 schools and only one T-2 reach school... Is there any advice that people have? Is it worth putting in more time to try again? I've heard mixed things about people's score not changing much. At this point I just want to start working on my other application needs...

I want to use the analytics feature but I don't have the Prep Plus package since I have all the tests in physical books. Is it possible to just input answers without needing access to the licensed material?

Same as title - got my score for may flex but not the score breakdowns yet

Hello, I'm aware that hats and earplugs are not allowed under normal testing conditions but I am not aware if one or both of these rules still apply for the LSAT flex. Hope everyone is having a good day! :)

Hi all! I'm registered for the July FLEX test and have been studying for about two months now. I've been through the PowerScore LG Bible Manhattan Prep LR and RC. I've also worked through a bunch of the core curriculum lessons, particularly for areas where I need the most help.

My diagnostic score way back in March was a 154, with my weakest section being LG. I've only taken 7 full tests since then, but I'm panicking a bit because my scores vary pretty significantly. My highest scores have been a 169 + 170, and my lowest scores have been 161 + 162.

For reference, my goal score is a 168. My undergrad GPA is a 3.95, so I'm really hoping to go to a T25 with a pretty significant scholarship.

I'm just stressed because I feel like I understand the LR pretty well, but in the practice test I just took today, I got 10 LR wrong in a single section! Does anyone have any advice? Has this happened with any of you? How can I make sense of this variation in PT scores?

Any insight would be greatly appreciated because I'm started to freak out, especially as the test keeps getting closer.

I wanted to extend my course, but for some reason, the option of extending the course is no longer available for me. Please help. I don't understand what happened.

Hey anyone down to go through this game. According to the information out there it’s seen as one of the most challenging grouping games. I completed the game untimed and only missed 2; so when I went back to the video explanation on the site, JY set the game up different from mine. I used RSTY for my slots and GPLH for my moving variables. I got question 9 wrong because I flat out could not figure out what it was asking me:( and I got 11 wrong - now for this question I did huddle my variables and realized G was the most restricted, however I didn’t understand why answer B was correct over C :( ... can someone please provide a video and/or feedback for this game.

Throwing a Hail Mary here, but seeing if anyone in Connecticut is looking to start/participate in a study group. I am aiming for October LSAT 165+

Reply or DM to discuss, thx

I graduated in 2013 with a 2.88 GPA, and my winter quarter freshman year, I totally tanked. At the time, I was playing a collegiate sport, and had taken chem/calc. Needless to say, my grades were awful, and I was subject to academic disqualification as a result. I quickly changed my major, and stopped sports at the end of my freshman year (mostly due to injuries, partly due to grades). I was in good academic standing for the remainder of undergrad.

For the most part, my grades slowly got better after that one quarter, but in general, I was not a good student my first two years - I wasn't very mature, and didn't take some classes seriously. To add to that, I also graduated two quarters early, so I wasn't able to take extra classes to boost my GPA.

My official transcript does not show that I was in bad standing that one quarter, but I plan on applying to law school at the same place I did my undergrad, as well as a couple other places. Regardless, is this something that I should/need to discuss in an addendum?

I'm planning on taking the LSAT in August, with a goal of 170. I worry that with anything much lower than that, I will be discarded, due to my GPA.

Does anyone have screenshots or can they describe how RC section on Lawhub (or ideally LSAT flex) looks on a larger monitor? This is a minor concern but I am studying on a 14 inch laptop and find the scrolling on RC passages makes it slightlly harder to retain the structure. I am wondering if on a larger monitor you can see the entire passage without having to scroll.

Thanks for any info!

Starting to foolproof logic games, and I'm wondering what other people's personal practices are for the process (i.e. how many games do you do per day, do you wait until you've mastered a game before you start a new one, or do you rotate between a few while mastering them, etc.) I can't help but feel like I'm neglecting other sections of the test by devoting so much time to only LG, so I'm also wondering if y'all do different section types during a study day. Any details you can provide or tips about the process would be super helpful!

I have a quick question on the application of the "or" rule in the Games. For an example, lets say that in a 8 slash sequencing line, if a rule states that L comes right before S or R comes right before H go together, this is an inclusive or right. If L comes right before S, it is still possible that R also can come right before H right?

My college registars office handles transcripts and diplomas but they've been closed and unavailable for over 2 months. They said they would not take request until may 30 now its june 30. I was wondering if anyone else is in the same boat.

I just "graduated" in may but I am unable to get my transcripts or have them sent. I was originally planning on taking the year off to travel and teach abroad but that plan was crushed. My friend in law school suggested that since I'm taking the LSAT in june to apply for this fall since my #1 school is accepting the june LSAT and reopened admissions but I cannot get my transcript. Their new deadline is July 1.

Professor agreed to write me a letter of rec, but she told me to explain the process. Would telling her to follow the link from LSAC's LOR service be enough? What other information should I tell her? Thank you so much.

Hi, everyone! I wonder if y'all could give me some advice on how to improve my speed while also maintaining accuracy?

For the past few months, I have been practicing untimed PT sections (1-35) because I wanted to focus on improving my accuracy first. I started with a 144 for an untimed PT, and I have recently achieved at my 170 (but still untimed). Now I think I should focus on improving my speed, because under timed condition, I cannot finish all my LR questions. Usually there would be 4 or 5 left and I don't have extra time to check those questions that I am not pretty sure. I know that if I cannot increase my speed, then my actual score would be much lower. Therefore, I was wondering if y'all could give me some advice? I would really appreciate your help and kindness! Thank you!!

I was doing an RC section yesterday - from PT 18, and I got 28/28 questions correct. Admittedly, this is a small victory in the general sense, but for me, it felt so good. I had never before scored perfect on any section - always at -1 or -2 being the closest I got. It felt absolutely outstanding to see all green everywhere. I have been improving greatly in my RC ability, and this felt satisfying. Motivation to keep going forward!

With a 170 score on PT82. Started with a 154 and feeling great about continued improvement! If I can make it this far, every one of you can!

So I am just now starting logic games and I am somewhat confused on when I should be doing the full proof method. Is that something that should wait until I start to PT, or should I full proof the problem sets from the CC as well? I am completely new to the games, and as expected I struggled on the first sequencing games. I am still having some trouble understanding if I need to go back and do the game over again or not like the full proof method says to do. If so, am I supposed to full proof every single problem set game that I struggle with initially?

I am working on making an interactive flow chart, but I thought I would share what I have typed up so far. Please feel free to correct/add on, or give any suggestions on memorizing other than flashcards. I have a pretty ambitious idea for a flowchart/app, but it's hard to work on that and also study for LSAT so probably won't happen anytime soon.
