Hello! I am creating a study group for anyone who is interested and who is currently scoring low to mid 160’s looking to end up 170+ — group would be used to share tips on strategy as well as having others in the same range who may be able to shed light on right vs. wrong answers / diff perspectives!

I find that right now I'm really trying to strengthen my weak areas through the classes and trying questions in the drills. But for certain areas like AP, theres only 60 or so questions that are in the drills, and I feel like I will exhaust them really quickly. I'm having trouble finding any alternatives :(
Anyone in the area looking to study together for the upcoming exam?
Are MBT common on the exam? I hate them. Cant map them out to save my life.
I know we're supposed to use the negation test to confirm the right answer for a necessary assumption question but....
If we negate trap answers -- aka sufficient assumption answer choices -- doesn't it still pass the test?
Example:
"Because we locked the door, no one can break into our house."
necessary assumption: one cannot break into the house going through the chimney.
sufficient assumption: the door is the only way in and out of the house, and the lock is impenetrable.
negate the necessary: one can break into the house going through the chimney (great, this wrecks the argument and passes the negation test!)
negate the sufficient: the door isn't the only way in and out of the house, and the lock is penetrable (great? this also wrecks the argument and passes the negation test...)
So... how can I reliably use the negation test as a tool for confirming a necessary assumption, and NOT a sufficient one?
hii im currently looking for a study buddy or study group to motivate each other and help learn new ways to approach problems! im in the pacific time zone, don't have discord and taking the january lsat. looking forward to connecting w you!
Hi Guys, Im looking to start a group for people who are taking the february LSAT and are looking for others who want to help keep each other accountable and have people to talk about the test about. I know this can be a very isolating process but I'd love to create a group of extremely motivated an ambitious people who can all help each other and motivate each other to do great on the test.
I'm curious if anyone has any advice for mid career professionals considering applying to law school.
particularly does anyone have a sense of how admissions offices consider those who haven't been in school for awhile? how they might view work experience compared with past academics?
I'm trying to get an idea how much my mediocre undergrad GPA of 3.0 would be weighed vs my 15 or so years of professional work experience.
any insights are welcome and appreciated
I seem to be repeating the same mistakes over and over. Like when I blind review, I can get what I did wrong and what I should have done etc, but I make the same mistakes over and over. Not sure how I even solve this….Another issue is I’m down to 2 answers and end up picking the wrong one each time… any suggestions on these two specific problems? My biggest weakness is conditional reading which I have been consistently drilling but always get 2 wrong out of 5.
Hello,
I am looking to start a group with individuals taking the LSAT in January and are still in the 145-150 score range. I think this will help all of us. Please let me know.

So I just made a custom drill of PT 130 S2 with all the RC passages in it and I'm currently reviewing my answers. I have attempted this section before. After getting my results I would click "Ques" under the Explanation tab on the right hand side, but I'm noticing a discrepancy between the drill results and the questions listed under the explanation video as there are results under there too. For example, in the drill review results it's indicating I missed Q5, but upon opening the explanation video the results under the video says I got that question right. And it's happening for a few other questions. I'm unsure if this is an actual problem or if it's just showing me the results from the last time I drilled this section? I can't tell as neither of them are dated. It's confusing me as even the timing report differs for example, in the drill it states I picked an answer within 18 seconds and the explanation video says it took me 47 seconds. Are these just results from two different dates of taking the same drill?

Hey All! I’m studying for the upcoming January LSAT, which will be my second test after recently taking the November exam.
I’m looking to connect with others who are also preparing for January and would be interested in studying together.
I’m located in California (PST) and my schedule is flexible.
If you're in a similar situation or want to study together, feel free to personal message me or comment below for WhatsApp group link.
Looking forward to connecting!
I cannot complete any drills that I've started and review the results.
Hi, just wondering if this is happening to anyone else or if this is a me problem? The buttons seem to be missing on the practice windows - the drills and preptests. Both on the actual practices and on the review page. Like they are still there, you can click on something, but the icons are missing so you have to guess where to press.
Hello, I am doing exactly as the title says and am looking to make an LSAT study group to meet regularly through zoom. We can discuss strategy, schedule practice test times, and help each other out in our studying journeys. Studying alone can get tiring and defeating sometimes, I hope to make a space for individual growth and community support. Availability will be discussed in our first meeting on the 15th at 2 p.m.. Please message me for the link!
Hi I'm looking for someone to read my personal statement and diversity statement.
Check marks showing progress in my syllabus have disappeared as well as the option to eliminate answer choices in drills. This hasn’t happened to me before. Any advice?
Hello,
I have decided to begin studying next week, I’m looking for anyone in the same position or is just looking for a study buddy. We can help each other out and hold each other accountable!
Thank you!
Hello, Does anyone know an approximate good length for personal statements, how long should the personal statement be? The general personal statement for law school. Thanks
I took the LSAT on November 9th, and literally had a mental breakdown halfway through the RC section. I felt prepared going into the exam, but it was way harder than I thought it would be. Did anyone else have this experience? I'm so scared to get my score back
Anyone else not able to see the buttons to cross out an answer or submit their answer to see if it's right? I've tried refreshing a bunch and nothing is working.
Hello everyone, my name is Daniela! I'm currently studying for the September 2024 LSAT.
I'm based in Dallas, TX, and I'm a post-grad working full time. I study on weekday afternoons & weekends, for the most part. I find it helpful to talk about the exam and it would be nice to connect with other test takers!
Feel free to reach out and good luck to everyone studying! :)
Hey chat, just here to vent.
I'm just feeling discouraged. I feel like my brain is not making the connections needed. I know its a learning curve, but this learning curve is effing steep. I work a 8-5 and alongside from going to the gym, college and personal responsibilities, I tend to study for an 1hr - hour and a half a day for what is usually 4-6 days a week.
I took it for the first time in April of 2023 and got a 143 on the first exam (I only gave myself 2 months to study back then... a bit delusional on my end). I procrastinated and was doing studying on and off until I started to be consistent in September of this year. I feel like mentally I have gotten nowhere for the exam (besides having MC & a bit of MSS questions down).
I know this exam isn't impossible to learn and I can do it, but I just feel like the consistency I put in isn't giving me the results I'm seeking. It might just be mental exhaustion on my end since I only have time to study after 8 or 9pm. How does anyone else deal with discouragement from the LSAT? I plan to apply next cycle and I pushed my test date from February to April earlier this week (maybe that's also feeding into the discouragement? lol).
Any advice is appreciated (3(/p)
