Why is E the better answer when compared to answer choice D? Would really appreciate someone's insight.

Anyone else feel like the difficulty on the earlier LR sections has an ENORMOUS variance? PT6 LR1, for example, went -0, with time to spare; PT6 LR2 on the other hand was hands down one of the hardest LRs I've seen!! (in my opinion).. somehow walked out of there with a -4, which I'm super proud of given the perceived difficulty of that section.

Anyone else feel this way???

I feel like I am struggling with productivity during my day of studying and its really bringing me down that I am constantly feeling unmotivated or like I am just not studying enough in a day. I am working on FPing right now, but I am literally only getting through two games a day. I take breaks because if not my attention span is shot, but ive just noticed that I have been at this for about 5 hours and have only done 2 games from 1 section. I am trying to wake up earlier because I am so unproductive because I am thinking that if i study more hours I will hopefully be able to get done in a day what a productive person gets done within a few hours.

I am not PTing yet, but FPing LG (best timed is -8) and trying untimed RC (-12 yikes) and trying to just do a few LR Qs a day (-4).

Does anyone else feel like this and how did you motivate yourself to be more productive?

Drop your study schedules in the comments because I feel like maybe being on a tight schedule will help me be more rigorous

Hi everyone!

I took a year off in undergrad as a medical leave of absence, during that time I was hospitalized and diagnosed with Bipolar 2 disorder. I was thinking about writing my personal statement about how learning to manage and cope with my bipolar disorder has made me a more compassionate and critical person. I know that the year gap in my undergrad degree requires an addendum/character and fitness essay, but if I write my personal statement about this part of my life, do I need to also write an addendum? Am I better off writing my personal statement on something else and leaving this story to just be told in my addendum/character and fitness essay?

Thank you!

Hi guys, do you have any advice on the writing sample? Also, will the writing process also be recorded like the other sections?

Hi all, I was wondering how best to "warm up" for the test. When taking practice exams, I've noticed I sometimes miss easy question at the beginning of the first section and feel like I'm just mentally foggy for the first few questions. What are some good ways to warm so you can start off strong?

Do we think the PTs in the 80s are slightly less important to focus on in the age of the flex test? (Obviously they're still important, just less so than before?) I hear they're pulling experimental from past administrations, so I'm curious what everyone's thoughts are.

Hi there, I am about 52% done in the course and am scheduled to take the November 14th exam here. I am devoting about 5-7h a day on studying and am trying to do more so that I can have roughly 2 weeks prior to the exam to concentrate solely on LR memorization (lawgic) and exams. I have previously studied for the LSAT last year, using a different course that I didn't like as much and received just below 150 (I know, not great). My question is: has anyone not finished the full course and been okay score-wise. I am going to have to seriously cram to finish in time + give myself about 2 weeks free for review and exams.

Thank you in advance!

Hi! Does anyone know what is the best way to drill for correlation and causation questions? I am having a really hard time grasping that concept even after going through the core curriculum. I need more practice. If you know of a list of prep test questions about causation and correlation OR if you have any suggestions for drills please let me know!

Wondering this because I'm not sure where you would even appropriately put it. I had read it was possible to add it as the addendum (particularly if one of the optional essays is already written), but I'm inclined to believe this would not be well received. Any advice?

How do we take a practice test that'll resemble lsat-flex on test day? hope my question makes sense.

I've been getting a lot of law school emails that say they have found me through CAS and encourage me to apply due to my credentials (also include a app fee waiver). Should I take these emails seriously or are they kind of generic? I got an email from Cornell saying I should apply but my LSAT/GPA are below their median lol. Anyone have some insight?

My actual scores (timed) are in the low 140's (147 being highest). My highest BR is a 149. Should I be discouraged? My best section is currently the LG's. I'm having a hard time with LR (haven't reached the RC section yet). I'm taking exam in Jan. Would I have enough time to bring up score? My BR is encouraging but not my actual PT score.

I have a 169 from the August flex and i’m registered to take the November test. I’m confused if I should take it again. I’m applying to T 14 schools with a low GPA(3.33 in Economics). I’m not sure if I should submit my applications early to have a higher chance or wait until I take the November test and apply then.

Trying to really grind on RC section before Nov 7 - does anyone maybe have a list of really difficult RC sections from previous exams? There's so many organized people on 7Sage, I would think this info is out there somewhere lol...

I was automatically put into nov 14th slot but when will they allow us a list of dates to choose from? I know testing will be taking place from nov 7-nov11

Is it just me or did they change the November LSAT registration deadline?? I had it written down in my planner as September 30th and when I checked LSAC today, it said the registration deadline was yesterday. Someone please tell me this is a mistake and I’m not crazy!!!

Hi, I upgraded to the LSAC Prep Plus and still cannot access the problem sets. When I initially subscribed to 7Sage, I had no problem going through the problem sets. What is going on?

Hey y'all, I was just going through one of the lessons on the syllabus and when I tried to "star" something, nothing happened. I also tried liking peoples comments, and the like button would pop up and down, but I wouldn't actually like the post. The same thing happened when I tried to press a button to speed up and slow down the video, as well as when I tried to press the "answer" button below the video. This is only happening on specific lesson pages, but not on the syllabus page.

I've tried clearing my cache, as well as switching to a different browser (I'm currently using Firefox but I switched to Chrome to test it out) and the issue has persisted. Any suggestions?

I still have to brain storm but trying to pick a topic for my personal statement has been something I’ve been putting off for a long time because I feel like I don’t have anything unique !!

I don’t have any clubs or extracurriculars I was heavily involved in, I’m just normal. I can’t put my finger on any life changing experiences I’ve had. The only reason/excuse I have for that is throughout college I worked full time to pay my bills as I’ve always been independent like that. I didn’t have time to be involved like that because I worked a lottttt (bartending really late nights). I barely slept to do assignments and whatnot.That’s one of the only things I can think of when it comes to being a little bit different because most of my peers had roommates or lived at home or had someone paying their rent but still it’s not like I’m an anomaly in that respect.

Maybe I just need to think of my past and qualities in a different light but right now I’m having a block. Has anyone been in this situation when it comes to a personal statement? Were you able to figure something out? Any advice? Anyone in the same boat who maybe wants to chat to help each other come up with some kind of game plan? I don’t really know anyone irl who knows about law school stuff to give me some pointers or mentoring, this is the only community I have for that soooo if anyone has something to add or something you would like to talk out yourself if you’re dealing w a similar issue comment below or my inbox is open :) I don’t really have much going for me lately with COVID and the fact that I’m done studying for the lsat now so I’ll answer lol

Knowing my own privileges, I don't want to try to pad my application with essays that falsely interpret minor difficulties and set backs as "adversity." If I feel that my personal statement touches on what makes me stand out (international background, language fluency, etc.) should I bother writing a diversity statement or any other optional essay?

Hi all,

Is there already a GroupMe for November LSAT takers? If so, I'd love to join!

Good afternoon everyone, I would appreciate any and all advice. I am deciding on writing an LSAT Addendum to highlight my history of poor test taking (on the SAT) compared to how I performed in college. For reference, I took the SAT three times, scoring a 1500/1600 out of 2400 and I had a 4.0 in college.

Does this justify an LSAT addendum if I scored a mid 150 ?

Hi! I've been practicing with the 4-section PrepTests and I always leave the second LR section for last, since there's not going to be two LR sections in the Flex test. However, I almost invariably find myself doing considerably worse in the second LR section. Could this just be fatigue, or does anyone else find the 2nd LR sections more difficult than the first ones?

And for those of you who've already taken the LSAT Flex, how do you compare Flex LR to your average LR section?

Thank you and good luck for everyone who's, like me, taking the test in October :)
