I feel like ive developed a solid grasp on the test. I have mastered LG so I consistently get -0 on it every PT -- my wrong answers typically come from LR and RC. BRing takes a really long time and so im wondering if my time is better spent just ditching the BR and doing targeted review after each PT? Any advice would be appreciated as im really torn up on what to do and i want to permanently jump out of the high 160s and into the 170s for the August exam. Thanks!

Looking for 2-3 people to review 1 LR section per week on Saturday (beginning from PT 63). Meetings will be held over Zoom or Skype, and will cover only questions we each found difficult (this way, we should be able to finish within 1 hour)

Update: Hi all, I unfortunately will not be able to meet for this group anymore, but feel free to contact any of those who commented and arrange meetings.

Drilling RC

Hey guys,

I'd love to get some thoughts on different ways to go about practicing RC. I feel like I'm not getting tons of progress from just practicing over and over. Do you have any advice to offer me in regards to practicing for this section of the test? Timed vs. Untimed. Reading other things. Breaking things down. IDK, just trynna keep things fun and fresh!

Thanks

A few months ago I asked if anyone would provide some advice on whether or not admissions consulting was worth it. There were so many great comments (thank you to anyone who was willing to share their experience!!) and I was completely convinced. I ended up doing the unlimited editing for one essay through 7Sage (personal statement) and just finished up the final draft. I cannot explain how incredible it feels to have finished this huge part of the application processes rather than finishing it last minute.

If you are considering admissions consulting, I HIGHLY recommend Sarah Cohen - she is an incredible person to have in your corner and I absolutely would not have put together an essay that I am so proud of without her. She was able to capture a single experience I had that I never would have considered writing about and helped me make it into an exciting 2-page story. I seriously cannot thank her enough, so it feels like the least that I could do is to give her a quick plug here :)

Let me know if you have any questions about my experience, I am happy to help.

Hello everyone,

I am planning on writing the November test, and am wondering:

When will the LSAC announce whether the November test will be in-person or flex? (I cannot imagine the test not being flex, but I am curious as to whether other people share the same thoughts)

While we do not know whether the November test will be flex or not, should I PT with 4 section tests or 5 section tests?

Thankful for any feedback!

I have gone through the course and watched all the LG videos and done most of the problem sets but I'm still unclear on a few things. I know this stuff is basic but I am really not smart.

So say there is a rule in a sequencing game if x is 3rd then y is 5th. Does that mean is y is 5th, then x has to be 3rd? I keep thinking the answer is no. Or if it is an in and out game. If X is in, then Y is in. I know the contrapositive is if X is out, y is out but what about if I only know y is in. Does that mean x has to be in as well or can y be in by itself.

I really don't get lawgic and can't follow when JY starts writing formulas. I'm sure his explanations are great, my brain just cannot process them. It doesn't work right. I've got extra time accommodations for the actual test but I still don't come close to finishing LG.

Hi, I cant seem to improve my score ive been studying for the past few months. like i keep scoring in the 146-9s and the highest was like a 150. I originally started at a 143, it sucks when u dont see much change even though ur studying everyday and everyone around u is succeeding. At this point i feel like im gonna fail and there is no point in studying for the lsat. I just feel dumb

Im foolproofing all the games from 1-35. However, if you guys are also foolproofing, do you do the Miscellaneous games as well? I know they are beneficial for picking out inferences that can help with future games but the setups for these games are so different compared to the games now. Would ya'll recommend still doing these games or drill games such as sequencing, in out, grouping etc instead?

We will now allow test takers to use a regular or mechanical pencil, or a pen, while taking the LSAT-Flex. You will still need to show your writing utensil(s) to the proctor during the check-in period.

In addition, test takers may use soft, non-electronic, non-corded/banded, generic foam ear plugs, which will need to be shown to and approved by your LSAT-Flex proctor.

I like it!!

RC Help!

Hello,

I have been mastering the LR and LG sections but my main issue is with RC ! Can't manage to get less than 9-10 mistakes per section.

I need tips and help please !!!!

Not really a discussion, I just think y'all should add a tag for except questions.

I have a sneaky feeling that analytics would show that to be one of my biggest priorities of study if that tag was available. I also think that it's just generally useful.

Thanks!

I am looking for a couple of people who are struggling with RC.. for the October test.. currently scoring in the 150's -160's.. I am wanting to do one passage per day timed and then do a blind review as a group.. for example one test = 4 days worth of passages.. If interested please message me and I will get a group going.. I have friends who did this and they went from -10/-12 in RC to -2/-3.

Thanks,

Madison

Hi Everyone! My university sent the transcript to the following address (w/ the LSAT form) and when I called LSAC they said they never received it.... even though it was sent 3 weeks ago. I'm glad I called!

Just to confirm, is this the right address?

LSAC

Box 2000-M

Newton, Pennsylvania

18940-0933 United States

Thanks!

I'm requesting transcripts from a community college because I took a summer class there, and it has the option of sending them to "Law School Admissions Council--JD--LSAC---LSAC Box 2000" or "Law School Admissions Council--LLM--LSAC--LLM Credential Assembly Service."

Are these the same thing? My undergrad institution didn't have the option of selecting either one, it just said LSAC.
