Hi all. I just signed up and entered my answers for a test I had already completed on Lawhub. I then went through that full test again on Lawhub, blind review style. How do I enter my blind review results? Currently it just says my blind is the same as my score. Thanks for the help!

Hi all! I am taking the July test on Tuesday, which will be my third time sitting for a test. I took it in Sept '18 (happy with score but knew I could do better) and sat for Nov '18 but ultimately decided to cancel that one. Now I am considering registering for August as a sort of security blanket, if you will. My thought is that if I like the score I get on July 30, I will just withdraw from August. So my question is, will it reflect poorly on my law school apps that I withdrew from August? I know I will be out $200 (which sucks), but my main concern is how it might make me look to an admissions committee. Any and all insights are appreciated, and good luck to anyone else taking the July test this week!

Started off the test with the proctorU persons password not working and didn’t get the password for 40 min so I just sat there. Then the session disconnected 2x during the actual test and had to reshow all my stuff and go through that process again. I’m worried if I should cancel my score BC I don’t feel very good about it, or just suck it up bc I’m prob only taking it 2 more times anyways...thoughts?

Has anyone taken a flex test on an iPad? I’m sitting the August test and have heard of some issues with MacBook Air. I’ve never experienced any issues with digital PT’s on the iPad and am mostly worried about a slow down with ProctorU.

Thank you!

Hi 7Sage!

After doing my 5th Practice Test (PT 38) and doing horribly on Logic Games, I was wondering if doing and foolproofing logic games from PT 1-35 is the right course of action to improve my logic games score? Did anyone else do this? I'm sure it took a lot of time. I was planning on taking the August LSAT but my logic games score under timed conditions is horrendous.

Thanks!

Dear fellow 7Sagers,

I've taken the LSAT three times now. I took it cold in 2017 June (PT 81) without every seeing an LSAT material and got a 151 (stupid, I know). I never touched the LSAT again until 2020 where I took it in May (169) and in June (171). However, these are below my PT average of 173. My section averages can be RC -1 to -3, LR -1 to -3, and LG -0.

The problem that I've noticed in the LSAT is struggling in section while doing great in the other two. In May, I felt like I aced the RC and LG but then in the LR, I somehow forgot how to read and had 8 flags before time ran out. In June, I felt like I killed LG and LR but was completely destroyed by the prescriptive vs descriptive and especially the sunken ships passages in the RC.

My question is that how can I ensure that I am able to perform in all sections regardless of difficulty? I usually don't run into this issue in my PTs. Is this a common issue during a take? I've done almost every PT above 50 and drilled 10-49 during the CC and warm-up drills.

I'm taking the August Flex for my 4th time in order to hit my average or above. Thank you for your time.

I'm currently scheduled to take the Flex on Tuesday and had a question about the highlight function. I've been practicing reading comp passages without highlighting after reading stories about what a disaster it is to use on the digital LSAT. However, I tried using the highlighter on one of the practice exams posted on LawHub and it seems to be working fine (using Chrome on a Mac). Has anyone tried using the feature on the actual Flex and know how reliable it is/whether I should attempt to use it when I take the test?

Thanks in advance!!

Hi everyone! I'm wondering if anyone knows if mechanical (number 2) pencils are allowed for the LSAT flex? I'm taking it Tuesday and want to make sure it goes as smoothly as possible. Also, if there are any other rules/materials that people ran into trouble with so far on the Flex, I would love to know. Thanks in advance!

So I have a PC, and with no built in microphone. What I'm wondering is if I'm able to use my headphones(Arctis5) to speak with the proctor and then just put it down during the test? How much do I really need to speak with the proctor during the test? And do they tell me stuff through voicechat? Or can it be done by chatting? Thanks.

I have read online that LSAC is permitting it and was just curious if that was true?

First time posting here, I just bought the 7Sage Course. So I started prepping for the LSAT two months ago using the LSAT Trainer, and I noticed after my 4th PT test that my score hasn't changed much at all--it went from 151 to 155 to 156 to 153 today. But, I blind review'ed my LR section today and scored a -1 while in the realtime test I scored -9 for that section. Does this mean I improved? Why is it that during real time tests, I am performing so much worse? Is a two-month time period too short to expect improvement?

I'm feeling rather lost and down--I'd appreciate any tips or insights you guys can share...Thanks guys.

Any tips for getting faster at R.C? I've been stuck with only getting through 2/4 passages for a few months now. I started reading the Economist, and it's helped, but I still feel like there's something that's holding me back from getting through this section.

I've seen some posts about allowing permissions, changing the swiping features, and disabling the "click to dictionary" function. Is this something that people are doing?

Was curious to see what most peoples comparative passage RC strategy was. I used to read both passages and then go to the questions, but have since been trying the J.Y. method of reading the 1st passage, seeing what you can deduce in the answer, and then reading the second passage and going back to the questions. How many people do the former, and how many people do the latter (the J.Y. strategy)? I think there is a lot of value in the J.Y. strategy but also notice it usually takes more time to do so and ultimately takes away time from the other passages.

Would love to hear other peoples thoughts! Thanks in advance.

Help!! I would like to withdraw from the July LSAT-Flex today this weekend, but there is no button available on the LSAC website account to do so, and the LSAC website says that withdrawing is permissible up until 11:59 PM EST the night before the test (July 11).

I understand this is terribly irresponsible and I should not be doing so this late but I wanted to ask if there was a way to withdraw?? The LSAC website doesn't have a button available under "eligible to withdraw" and I sent them an email but they probably won't respond because it's Friday night.

Should I withdraw on Proctor U?

I see that on LSAC they say you can have two number two pencils. Does this mean that pen is not allowed? If so does proctor U check your scrap paper after the test? I am really an anti pencil person.

I'm getting worried because there's still not admissions ticket posted to my LSAC account and I'm scheduled for the July test at 1150 on Sunday. Should I be worried, or is it normally posted the day before? I read the LSAT Flex tips on LSACs website and it said you have to hold up the ticket: did this change and I'm not supposed to get one? Just want to know for sure so that if I need to start calling LSAC I can do it first thing tomorrow morning.

I started taking PT's and my scores fell into the high 150 range. I got a 157, 158, 159 and a 156 respectively. Frustrated that I couldnt get a 160 I changed the way I studied and felt like it would have helped. I took a week off, came back and got a 155 on a PT. After that I reviewed my test and took another one. Today I got a 152. My lowest ever. Unsure of what to do and very lost.

Hi all, where can I access PINNED questions from problem sets?

#help

Would anyone here recommend a commercial prep course like Blueprint? I'm currently stuck averaging 150, but I've only taken 9 PT's. I would like to end up scoring in the high 160's by the end of this year. I've had some pretty unhelpful and costly experiences with some other tutoring companies in the past, so I'm really only looking for the best option at this point.

Announcement from LSAC:

More information about LSAT-Flex

Hello, I’ve taken all the PT’s in the 70’s and 80’s except for 89. I’m wondering if it would be beneficial to take PT89 before the upcoming LSAT this week or if I should save it to use for later if/when I begin studying for the August LSAT. On one hand, I want to be as up to date with the most recent material as possible. But at the same time, I don’t want to burn through my last “new” PT if I do end up studying for August. What are your thoughts?

Hey 7sagers,

I'm back again to ask for the advice of members of the community who PT 170+ . What is your mindset in approaching studying, correcting mistakes, habits & routines, etc..? I believe that your mindset is often an overlooked idea, but it has significant advantages when applied correctly. I just want to understand the thought processes that are behind what top scorers are considering in various aspects of this exam. I appreciate the help as always and look forward to your responses!

I registered for the July exam and thought I would have until midnight tonight to withdraw. I had attempted to do so a few days ago to no avail, so I emailed LSAC. I never received a response. I kept trying via the LSAC website and was unsuccessful. I then learned that I only had until July 3rd to withdraw. So, I logged onto ProctorU to schedule a slot, but couldn't get one. Spoke with a customer service rep who told me that all the slots are filled and that I should contact LSAC for assistance. They wont be back into the office again until Monday.

So, I can't withdraw but I also can't register for a test. Not registering shows up as an absence. Between that and a canceled/mediocre score I'd take the latter.

Does anyone have any additional information? What should I do?

If you know a tutor or have any study approaches that helped you please let me know especially if you started low as -13. Any guidance would be helpful. I've tried 7sage, PS, & trainer. I try reading for structure and review all RC passages through 7sage. Somedays I'm at 20/27 (twice) timed and most other days I'm at an average of -13. I think the days where I hit 21 or 20 are merely flukes. Untimed I'm typically 23-24.

Thank you.
