I've been tracking and reviewing my missed questions regularly. Is it worth doing the same for questions I circled (but ultimately got right)? Or do y'all have other strategies you recommend for further cementing that correct reasoning?

So i dont want to spent over $500 to buy the go just to practice the digital lsat. Does anyone have any recommendations for cheap tablets to drill digital lsat?

Is there a way to take and grade just single sections from PTs? If not, will this function be offered soon?

Sorry if there is another post on here that talks about this.

I just finished the CC, I'm sitting for July (less than 4 weeks away) and am wondering what PT to start with since I have limited time to PT.

I have done a decent job foolproofing, spent a ton of time on LR, and ended with RC so that is fresh on my mind and was doing surprisingly well.

I have a one week vacation from work I plan to take which I'll get about 60 (5 PTs) hours of total study time that week for PT'ing, but weeks with work I'm limited to max out at 25 hours (2 PTs) per week. Giving me a grand total of about 110 hours (not including the rest of this week).

PT's take about 12 hours in total, that's just shy of 10 PTs. Do I start with the most recent 10 then?

Ty in advance.

Hey Everyone!

My name is Isabella, and I am currently studying for the September LSAT in Philadelphia, PA. I was posting to see if anyone in the area would be interested in starting an in-person study group for the September LSAT!

Best of luck with your studies!!

Hello!

I am trying to study for the October test, aiming for a 165 +. I haven't taken the mock exam yet, but I safely assume that I am hitting around 150-155 right now? Because last year I was hitting around 151-153, and I have definitely improved from last year. However, I would like a tutor who I can meet in person once a week. Does anyone know a site where I can find information for tutors? Or an individual they have been tutored before who really helped with their studies? I saw Wyzant for tutors, but I would like to know if there other options as well.

Thank you!

Hello everyone,

I am a recent college graduate who is preparing to take the test in October and apply for law school in the fall. However, I had some questions about recommendation letters. Currently, I am thinking of asking my 1) last semester history seminar professor who liked me and gave me a good grade 2) my writing professor freshman and sophomore year and 3) my internship supervisor who was previously a lawyer and I got along with very well.

But the problem is I was only able to ask my internship supervisor in person. I totally forgot to ask my professors because I was swept with finals and graduation :( And because I am out of college, I am not near my college physically.. I think email is the best option to ask my professor for recommendations currently. Also, I would like to give them the whole summer to write one for me, and I really need advice on the best way to format the email to formally ask for a recommendation.

And the questions I have are:

** Please let me know anything I should know! Sorry that I seem so misinformed :( ** Thank you everyone

Hey! Question for 170+ scorers— after extensive BR of incorrect questions and any anything that gave an inkling of trouble, what do you do with your PTs?

Background: I'm a month out from July 15 test date, 170 average, hoping to edge that average up in the next month to secure a 170+ on test day.

4.0 UGPA, want to be in NYC for law school.

Currently focusing on ridding myself of any problems with RC, which is my most problematic area. -0 to -3 on LR, foolproof level on LG. Working on mental discipline/simulating test-taking endurance and timing test-taking techniques.

Taking 3 PTs/wk (67-71, 81, 85-86 left), 25 hours min of studying/wk. Plus a full time grad student in the MA region.

What would you rec I concentrate on to make that last bump and secure my knowledge in this last month?

Many thanks in adv.

Hey so i was reading somewhere last night that JY will be holding sessions for ultimate and ultimate + members, this really convinced me to purchase ultimate but I was hoping someone can show me where that post was to confirm I wasn't seeing things since I can no longer locate that specific post, thank you guys!

Not sure if this has been posted yet, but I was perusing the fees on the LSAC site and noticed some fee changes as well as important info about retaking the LSAT:

What would it cost if I only wanted to retake the multiple-choice portion of the LSAT and not LSAT Writing?

Candidates who are eligible to retake the LSAT would pay $190 through the registration period for the July 2019 LSAT which ends June 4, 2019. Candidates would pay $200 beginning with the registration period for the September 2019 LSAT (May 16 through August 1, 2019). That price is good through the registration period for the April 2020 test. There is no discount for not taking LSAT Writing, but if you have already provided a writing sample, it is not necessary to do so again.

It looks like the LSAT cost is going up to $200 beginning with the September administration. The fee includes the writing portion, which is becoming a take-home style section. LSAC has also stated that you only need to have 1 writing sample on your record going forward, and the older style that is hand-written on test day counts for that if you already have done it. So if you re-take the LSAT, you do not need to re-take the writing section. However, if you opt not to do another writing sample, there is no discount from the $200 LSAT fee. Since the writing portion is now administered separately from the multiple choice test, you may take it as a stand alone for $15.

It looks like they are also instituting "packages" with CAS that provide a slight discount. CAS is $195, Law School Reports are $45 and, as mentioned, LSAT is $200. The following packages are available:

LSAT (w/writing), CAS, 1 Law School Report = $430 ($10 savings)

LSAT (w/writing), CAS, 6 Law School Reports = $650 ($15 savings)

I'm registered to take the July 15th, 2019 LSAT. With today being the deadline for any "Test Date Changes," I'm having some anxiety over whether I should push my testing date to September.

I'm working for a law firm full-time, and I really can't afford to quit (in a financial sense) so I've had to confine my studying to nights and weekends. I've been doing fairly well with that since beginning around mid-March, though I definitely find myself drained by the time I sit down to study Monday - Friday and, as a result, I'm know that I'm not getting the most out of my study time.

I'm also aiming for a 170+ on test day and, although I've hit 171 on a recent PT, I've been averaging a 163 since March. Based on this I really don't feel like I'm ready to perform my best just under a month from now.

The only thing that's kept me from changing my test date before now is the unique opportunity presented by the July 2019 test - to see my score before cancelling.

Does anybody have any advice about whether it might be worth it to take the July exam (and hope for the best) then plan to cancel if I'm not happy with my score and sign up for the October exam? (since I've heard the September test won't be an option by the time my score comes in for July).

Will the October iteration be too late for a solid shot at applying EA to many top schools? And since the July circumstances regarding the cancellation option are so unique, I'm wondering how schools would judge a July cancellation...?

Basically, would I be better off changing my test date to September - or hoping for the best with the July test date?

Thanks so much for any feedback!

I am sitting for the July LSAT, as most of know, we are allowed to see our score before deciding to cancel it. I was wondering what score would be a definite cancel? I have a LSAC weighted GPA of 3.75 and would really like to have ANY LSAT score on file (even if I plan on retaking in November) so I can send out some applications for ED. I do not mind going to a tier 4-5 law school if worst comes to worst, as my REAL need is scholarships. I am under a contractual obligation to take the July LSAT (free prep material from my undergraduate will have to be payed back if not taken by July) but I just graduated in December 2018 and barely got to LSAT studying in March. I am a non-tradition law school applicant, I graduated HS in 2003 and decided to go back to school 10 years later after being in the business world. I am a first generation college graduate and of course a first generation potential law school student and would appreciate any and all advice, as there are so many conflicting posts/threads online. My PTs ranged from 134 in March to 147 as of last week. Of course I will continue to use my Princeton Review prep materials until test day. I would like to know if I should cancel a score if I plan on retaking in November? Is it okay to have, say a 150 on file and retake it in November in hopes of getting a higher score?

Thank you in advance 7Sagers

has anyone done this ? is this useful?

I just have a question about Rule 3 which is, M-->S Contra: /S-->/M. Doesn't this mean that M and S always go together? If so, then how can number 23 have S and J together without M?

Thanks

Hi guys - I'm having trouble loading the "Course" page on the iPad. The "Discussion" tab is also glitchy - it just shows a portion of the last discussion I viewed (can't fully scroll through the entire discussion). Is anyone else having this problem? @studentservice

Hi everyone,

I have a question about seeing the word typically, and I know that I have specifically seen this word in LR questions and I'm wondering what we can take the word to mean. For example if a stimulus says that "Winners of a Nobel prize for science, who are "typically" professional scientists..." how should we interpret this? Does this mean most, many, or some other amount? I am leaning towards interpreting it as most, but I'm not sure if this is logically correct. Additionally, if the word "often" is used in the same way how should it be interpreted?

On the last few PTs I have experienced a strange trend on LR. When I take the actual PT, I encounter some LR questions that I am uncertain about the answer choice but the answer choice I select is correct. For some of these same questions, I find my self selecting the wrong answer choice during blind review. The most stressful part of this experience is I have not been able to identify a pattern in terms of question types or question difficulty. Really the only pattern is that is happening more frequently.

Has anyone else experienced this? How did you overcome it? Is it simply a lack of understanding?

It is quite easy for me to finish logic games in desired times after 2 or 3 attempts. I have an extremely good short-term memory for inferences, and also, I do them back to back to back. Usually I don't go over 5 attempts for a logic game, unless I clearly am forgetting inferneces and not finihsing in desired time. However, if I wait two or three days to do it, then I forget most of it and would not be able to get the same results.

Is this common?

also, which one is better? to do 10 all in one setting? or to do them in 10 different days?

Good evening,

If I am scoring individual sections from an exam, is there anyway to use the analytics/scoring feature to grade only one section -- as opposed to scoring the other sections as incomplete? I intend to use older exams to drill LR and LG, and am not finishing the exams in one sitting, rather, just one section at a time.

Alternatively, does anyone have any suggestions for the best way to do this? I am hoping to identify question types that I am consistently getting incorrect.

Thanks!

I am planning on taking the July 2019 LSAT simply because of the advantage to see then dismiss or keep my score even though I know I won't be ready. The LSAT I am preparing for is the September or October LSAT but I also want to do my best on the July LSAT. Does anyone have any advice on what sections I should prioritize for the July LSAT? I do not want to cram a bunch of stuff over the next month, but I want to be prepared as possible so it is not a complete waste of time. Any study tips?

P.S. I score the lowest on my RC.

If I don't finish the LG questions in CC within the ideal time frame - should I redo it until I do and get all correct and feel like I own it, or should I move on and do this process later on in the drills?

Just feel like I would be spending a lot of time on CC if I wait till I own every question, and these questions are going to appear again in PTs and drills anyway.

As I take more LSATs still under 10 preps tests I am noticing I am getting best sections but can never string together a great whole test. Is there any advice on the best ways to string together whole tests because when I train individual sections I can get down to -2/-4 rather easily. Is it smart to string together multiple sections when I practice between doing whole pretests? Also is it worth using newer logic games than training with old ones?

help can someone explain why this is B? It seems clear that the director did in fact infer that some others did like the movie, and its seems like he did fail to take into consideration the number of positive (i.e., 0) and negative (i.e., 10) responses received re: the movie reviews

I just scored my first 170 on a timed PT 69 or usually I score 159-165 with a BR score of 173-175. I'm just so glad to make this break through, but I want to know what tests should I be taking. I want to take the test in July and mayyyybe September if I don't get 168+ What tests should I take now? I was thinking to take evens 70s-80s just to keep the odd ones incase I need to test in September.

PT69 S1 2019-06-16 2 days ago LR -4

PT69 S2 2019-06-16 2 days ago LG -0

PT69 S3 2019-06-16 2 days ago RC -4

PT69 S4 2019-06-16 2 days ago LR -3

How long does a typical blind review take you? How long until you started noticing benefits? Any other study suggestions?
