I'm curious why everyone here is interested in going to law school :)

I'll start– I want money! jk. I had a high school class where we took field trips to meet different professionals and I liked the prosecutors above all. At least on the surface, they all looked happy with their jobs and their work sounded interesting, especially the one in the special victims' unit. I also watch legal dramas, so my understanding of legal work might be a little too romantic.

This is my first LSAT Flex, and I do not know what institution I should pick for my ProctorU account set up? I have tried to pick LSAC or the "Paper and Pen" version, and I keep getting this notice, "This Institution does not permit creating a ProctorU account. Please navigate to your course Learning Management System for scheduling and rescheduling ProctorU reservations."

Can someone please help?

Are necessary assumption questions initially difficult for most people? Im getting so frustrated over them.

Hi everyone!

I'm currently in the beginning of the course, and I am just curious if you guys showed a large improvement between your diagnostic PT and the first few PT's you took once finishing all the prep lessons offered? Or did most people just show gradual improvement as you took the PT's?

Thanks!

I first registered for the Flex in November, but then after scheduling my November exam time on Proctor U, I decided to change my test date to January.

In November, I received the ProctorU link to create my account and all - they sent me the email with my acct and temporary password. I'm almost positive I created a new password but now I can't get into my account whatsoever. Even worse, when I click "forgot password" it doesn't send me an email, so I have no way of creating a new password.

Do we get new proctor U info if we sign up for a new exam? I technically have never taken a Flex exam, but I definitely signed up for the November exam through Proctor U. Or is something seriously wrong on my part...

Hi, I'm taking the Jan 2021 LSAT and it will be my first one. Has anyone received the email about scheduling/setting up ProctorU?

Hi! So I recently received an official diagnosis for ADHD. It has been believed I have had a learning disability since childhood but due to my parents financial situation could never afford a full evaluation and opted for extra tutoring instead. We think I have/had Dyslexia but some teachers also suggested ADHD so this isn't too much of a shock. The reason I even got tested now was because I found out my school gives student discounts on evaluations and COVID factors have heightened my attention struggles. It is too late for me to apply these results to an LSAT, but I feel at least validated that my struggles have not just been in my head. With these results, can I maybe get testing accommodations in law school? Should I bring up this information when talking to schools about learning environments? Anyone with similar experiences I would love to hear from! TIA!

(PT3 S4 Q20) hey guys, I was between B and C on this one, can anyone clarify why its C (there's no explanation vid:/)

Hi there! I am 2 weeks out from test day, and I am still experiencing widespread inconsistency, or random inconsistencies at times. My past 10 tests have been 176-170-166-165-170-168-168-169-170-168, and today, I got 161 on PT85, my worst in a long time. For those of you who are consistent in your scores, how do you do it? My BR has generally put me in the low 170s, but I don't get why sometimes my mind just completely blank and.I hit rock bottom.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Hi all!

I have been getting around -4 to -6 per LR section, and have discovered that around 2/3 of my errors are due to misreading.

This, in turn, might be due to timing issues (but could be something else).

I was wondering whether anyone has dealt with a similar issue, and whether you might have any solutions.

Thanks!

Hi everyone!

I am wondering, I am signed up for the Jan 16 LSAT exam and am looking for ways to improve my score in these last 10 days without causing burnout.

I've taken it twice thus far in the Fall semester, and went from a 146 to a 155 after I learned to study more effectively and was under less stress (not perfect, but I am proud of the score jump). I am hoping to reach at least 160 if I can this next exam, though logic games are truly killing me. I can finish with -5 in LR and -5 in RC, though I have not been able to reduce my time on logic games enough to where I am able to reach the fourth game (at best, I will end with -8). In my PTs, this has allowed me to barely scratch the surface of 160, though I would like to be able to have more a safety net on test day.

At this point, I've been doing LG drills and PTs every two-three days. I've started repeating old problems with the hope of learning the inferences faster. Has anyone else been in a similar position and/or have advice?

I want to run an equipment test through the ProctorU site but apparently I have to create a ProctorU account first. I'm having trouble with this because I don't know what to select for "Institution". I've tried both LSAC and Paper and Pen LSAC but according to ProctorU, both disallow me to make an account. Does anyone have the same issue?

Taking the January LSAT and I have been able to consistently score from the high 150s to low 160s range. I'm not sure what's going on but the past two practice tests I have taken were significantly lower than what I had been scoring and it's really discouraging me. Any tips or advice on how to get past these recent off putting results?

To anyone who’s interested, I’m streaming my study sessions live. Come join me in our quest for the mythical 180 :)

As of now, I’ll be on until about 6:30 pm EST

Hey everyone, my life has taken a turn recently. And at this moment I don't have the time to keep studying. That being said I plan to attack the LSAT again later in life when things cool down and I have the time to give it the attention is deserves. Thus, for now I don't want to continue paying $90 dollars a month for 7 sage, if i cancel but come back again later will 7 sage still recognize what I have covered, and where I am in the syllabus ? I don't want to lose my progress !!!

Anyone have experience with this ?

Thanks !

Why is option E wrong? I know why the correct answer is D. However, I feel like if i did not read D first, I might have picked E. I feel like E draws the connection between new technology and an increase in productivity.

I thought the only reason it could be wrong is because it leaves out "notably" in discussing productivity increases. So, the new technology could be impacting the increases in productivity, not just notably. However, I then looked at option D (the correct one) and it does not mention notably.

help why is B wrong. I know why the correct answer is C. But, I read all the explanations for why D is wrong but I have a defense for all of them. The stimulus mentions that the cortex is slow to develop continuing right into adolescence. So, this means it will develop at some point during adolescence. Hence, only adults and adolescents can have these skills.

Someone mentioned, how about animals? I assume that animals can be adolescent and adults

Another explanation mentioned that adults is out of scope? Because the stimulus states “right into adolescence” one can reasonably infer that post adolescence, the cortex is developed. HELP!

Someone else mentioned how there could be some kids who are exceptions. However, that does not really work because the stimulus mentions that the cortex continues to develop into adolescence. So, doesn't this eliminate exceptional kids who develop theirs earlier

I've done everything I know to do, reviewed as many of these questions as I possibly can, but something in my brain just has a difficult time with these questions. I can usually take a Logical Reasoning section and miss anywhere from zero to two total, but something about these question types just gets me every time. If I miss something, it's bound to be one of these types. It seems that I just can't figure out what the answer choices are saying. I always narrow it down to two choices and pick the wrong one.

Is there anybody who has a secret way to solve these? Are there any unique approaches? Any tricks? I'm at my wits end. Simply redoing questions hasn't helped me. I need to break through somehow, but sometimes wonder if it's even possible.

Hi all !

I am looking for a study buddy (don't want to suffer by myself...lol) for the February LSAT. I am scoring mid-high 140s and would at least like to get to mid 150s by February. I work full time Monday - Friday but am available to study 6pm - 9pm (Eastern Standard Time) and I'm free all day on Saturday/Sunday.

Hello 7Sagers! I am a 33yo F healthcare professional (consultant) looking for a career change. I started preparing for the LSAT over winter break (I'm in a Masters program right now) and am looking to network with fellow working professionals who might be in a similar situation. Any interest in forming a study group/communication channel? I am planning to take the LSAT between Aug 2021-Jan 2022 (depending on practice test scores at that time) and I got a 162 on my most recent timed 5-section practice test (via Khan). I'm based in Chicago, CST.

Does anyone have any experience with updating applications (final transcript and job updates)?

Is it as simple as sending an email to admissions offices? I can’t find much info on the process.

Thanks in advance!

When its referred in RC to a certain part of the passage should you always return to it and read the line they indicate?

When law schools evaluate geographic diversity, do we know if it's based on your undergrad institution or where you are a permanent resident now? (3 yrs out of undergrad)

Trying to determine if being a permanent resident of KS vs CO is helpful to my app. (went to school in KS)

I understand the correct answer. However, it has not clicked why option A is wrong. Doesn't the argument presume that the components for the architectural style also have the same qualities. My reason is because, it conclusion is drawn form elements of both qualities, and concludes that those elements basically have the qualities of the style as a whole (beautiful and dramatic).
