Unable to figure out this PSA question out. Please help.

Hello, everyone: I am experienced with the LSAT. I just need someone to guide through some tricky situations I find myself in in each of the sections. I am seeking a tutor who is willing to assist in helping me reach my target score range. Thx!

There were problems at my testing center in Boston for the November test. I COMPLETED the test with no issues. How is this possible??? I do not agree to my score being cancelled. Has this happened to anyone else???

Hello everyone I need some help with an issue I have been struggling with. Any input would be great.

Back story:

I graduated high school in 2007 and started community college

and i am currently doing both and plan to get my associates fall 2019 and bachelors in may 2020

Since 2007 I have been the worst at yoyoing through my enrollment. Most semesters I would start and stop college for whatever reason (i have a lot of Fs from not showing up and Ws because i would withdraw before the date)

I started University in Fall 2018 and will graduate with a 3.8

My community college grades are weighing my 3.8 to a 2.7 total

Here is my question.

I can take some courses over and raise my gpa to a 3.0 (this would need to happen in spring 2020 or I can keep it and invest the time into studying for the LSAT. I plan on taking it in October/November 2020.

So i either take some classes and not start studying until May

Or just write an addendum and use the time to study for the LSAT.

(I have already asked the schools about changing to withdraws and its not possible)

Will we get pt89 before the Jan test?

Hey guys,

I was wondering whether it's appropriate to list an incoming position on a law school resume.

The reason I want to include it is because the position is with a great organization and I'll be doing work that directly relates to the type of law I plan on practicing. Because I talked about wanting to practice that type of law elsewhere on my applications, this position would tie everything together nicely.

However, since I won't start working there until a few weeks after I submit my applications, does anyone have any advice on how to list it on my resume, or any potential downsides to doing so?

As a side note, I don't want to push back sending my apps any longer, so I've already ruled out waiting until I start the position to put it on my resume.

Hey Everyone,

Okay so I have been using Prep Tests 1-35 as strictly untimed drilling materials. I have consistently been using these tests for untimed problem sets in order to increase my accuracy. I plan on starting to time myself some months before I take the test. From which PT should I start using for timed testing practice? I just don't want to use too many PT as untimed drilling material that I don't have more than enough PT to use for timed work. I hope this makes sense. Thank you in advance!

Hi everyone!

I just have a question about the course structure for the Ultimate+. After the core curriculum, there are 4 sections called Drills from PrepTests 01-09, Drills from PrepTests 10-19, Drills from PrepTests 20-29, and PrepTests 1-35. For each of these sections it shows "0 mins" next to each. Are these looked at as extra and not part of the main testing material?

How should I go about studying? By plowing through all of these sections labeled zero mins first? Or by skipping ahead to the first official PrepTest with a time next to it? My fear is a lack of time for finishing all the material so I'd like to be strategic in my approach.

Any advice on how to approach my studies?

I am currently in the middle of reading comprehension.

Thanks!

Nicole

Hey guys,

Are "depends only on" and "all that is needed" sufficient condition modifiers? If yes then why? Please help!

If a person was diagnosed with bipolar disorder several years after taking any standardized exam is it worth seeking accommodations for the LSAT?

My PT scores are stagnating in the low 160s while my BR keeps increasing with each test (now in the mid-170s) and I don't know why! Any advice you have about how I can get this improvement to show in my PT scores would be really helpful. Currently my strongest section is RC and most inconsistent/weakest is LG.

I have recently started studying seriously for the LSAT. I am looking to attend law school in the US. Afterwards, I would like practice in the US.

Are there any limitations on an international student's ability to get hired out of law school and work in the US? After my undergraduate studies, I came across this issue in applying for entry-level positions - nobody wanted to sponsor me for an entry-level position. Are there any other considerations I have to make aside from visa sponsorship?

My apologies if this is vague... I know very little about how a Canadian might practice in the US!

I recently got accepted to the University of Minnesota and was pretty set on this being the school I was going to attend. Until today, I found out I got accepted to the University of Toronto.

I now have a tough decision to make and was looking for any pointers? Which school would be a better choice for career outcomes and opportunities? I should mention I am from Minnesota and an alum from there as well. I’ve just heard amazing things about Toronto and it’s reputation.

Hi, I've been studying for the January LSAT for a few weeks now, and since my blind diagnostic of 169, I've been plateauing in the 167-169 range on timed prep tests. I've been studying for a couple hours every day (except for a brief recess to travel to my undergrad graduation) and I'm starting to feel dejected about reaching my goal of around 173/174. My errors are spread equally between LR and LG (and are usually the product of overlooking little details, so I've been working on trying to amend that), while my RC scores have been surprisingly good and I'm not particularly concerned about that area. My study methods include reading the LSAT Trainer, the Powerscore LSAT Bibles, watching videos, and taking prep tests every other day and then reviewing my errors. I decided against paid courses/tutoring because of my diagnostic score and the prohibitive costs. Is my goal of the low 170s realistic given the timeframe and my study methods? Does anyone have any tips about strategies to maneuver oneself out of the high-160s zone?

I wanted to share this opportunity that some people may be interested in.

Hey Everyone,

Starting to fool proof logic games and have a few questions:

For example, when you read a question and you already know in your head that the answer is C. Do you go through the motions to confirm C?

Look forward to your responses.

Hey there 7 Sager's!

I'm sure there are a handful of you out there that are in a similar conundrum as I am. I took the LSAT in October, scored below the median at my target school, however I am retaking in January. Should I apply prior to taking in January, or hold off until I get my January score back? My concern is being rejected because of my first take. Is there an option to submit an application and attach addendum explaining that I will be retaking in January and for them to hold off on reviewing my application? Any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

To Philosophy-major, Com-sci major, and Law school students,

I just finished watching the first videos of "Introduction to Logic" section of the course. I wonder if I should take Symbolic Logic as a course offered at my college. As far as my research goes, Symbolic Logic might be great for the LSAT, for future law-related endeavors (since I wish to go to law school), and computer-science-related endeavors (since I am a com-sci major), but I'm not sure to what percentage the course might help with those above it is purported to help, and if the percentage of helpfulness is low, then whether I should self-study those parts where the course is helpful.

Thank you!

Someone please tell me why A is correct.

I think SoA is incorrect because: let's pretend there are two subdivisions, A and B. Let's say sub A contained houses of $1mil and sub B had houses costing half million. Let's say someone like Bill Gates lived in sub A. $1 mil is drastically lower than what he can afford, but de facto segregation between sub a and sub B still exists.

Please explain AC A. Thank you.

I was reading online that Georgetown guarantees to respond to Early Decision applicants in less than 4 weeks after they apply. How does the interview fit into this timeline?

in other words, does that just mean they will tell you if you get an interview within 4 weeks? Or will they interview you, and then also tell you if you get in.

thank you!!

Hey, everyone! I have set aside 10 more Practice Tests to go before my actual test. I am contemplating whether to add in some old tests, such as 56th or rather stick with the latest 10. I have certainly practiced with old tests in the beginning of my prep, but now I'm in the 70th-80th... I know No. 88 brought in some oldies... so I am curious whether I should refresh my memory on the scope of the old PTs. Thank you!!!!

Hi guys Im just looking for some advice here on where to go next, Im registered for the January exam but im still struggling with my timed for RC and LR. I do fine untimed but times it almost seems s impossible. i had a breakdown earlier and was just crying because i have been studying for about 9 months now and I need to apply to this cycle. So I am under a significant amount of stress. Where do I go from here? I know I should keep practicing my section timed but should I do the timed sections separately? And for RC how should I continue with reading the passage in a more timely manner as well as answering the questions.

Basically how to get speed without sacrificing my accuracy? Also anyone know anything that helps boost confidence I feel as if this exam is beating me up every day.

Anyone please help me with advice or personal experience please I'm so desperate.

Hi the problem sets that we can pick from and create on 7sage is there an option of printing them. ??

Hi! Once my November LSAT score is released, I'm planning to re-apply to multiple schools after only being waitlisted or rejected by them last cycle.

I'm currently revising a new PS that mostly dwells on some life experiences/changes the past 12 months. Most advice I've read says that I should submit a new PS, which makes sense. However, advice on how to tie the two together, if at all, is hard to find!

Obviously, they still have my old PS personal statement on file, but how much should I reference the topics/ideas from my old PS within my new PS?

To put it more generally, should I assume that they'll consider my new PS in tandem with my old PS, or only refer to it if they have any questions?
