What are the thoughts on grade addendums for non-traditional students? I have a resume with 20 years of experience that I think will show a strong work ethic and stand out, and if my LSAT scores are in the ballpark of where my PTs have been, they'll be above the 50% scores for the schools I'm looking at. My college grades were horrible though. I just don't know what I would write on an addendum that would be anything much better than, that was a really really long time ago and doesn't reflect who I am at this point in my life, which I think the resume and number of years (decades, yikes) since graduation will show. My gut instinct is that it just draws more attention to it. Is it important to get out in front of it and spell it out - those grades are not who I am - or better just to let the strong parts of the application speak for themselves, and hope for the best with the grades? Thanks!

😅 Nervous

Am I on the right track?

Hello! I recently graduated in May 2025 and am about to start working part time at a library about 3-4 days a week. I'm also planning on volunteering at my local animal shelter soon once I get my work schedule solidified. I've been studying around 5ish hours a day for the February 25' LSAT, and because of my ADHD I tend to work a little slower than some of my peers. This is the main reason I wanted to work part-time so I can still get in quality study time on weekdays as well as weekends. My question is, will law school admissions look at me less favorably than if I was working full time? Also is there anything I could do to make myself a well rounded applicant? Is what I'm doing enough? Any advice would be very much appreciated! Thank you!

Free Law Hub

My Fee Waiver expired for LawHub but is still valid for 7sage. I can't access anything here without a lawhub subscription and I can't afford it. What should I do?

It would be helpful if a feature could be added to pin specific drills taken to the top of the list for easy reference later.

The expected accuracy feature, which plays into analytics and priority tags, makes no sense. Say I have consistently scored 155-160 on all of my PTs, but my goal score is a 170, how am I supposed to reach that if it's giving me priorities based on other people in my current score range??? It could say that I have a "low priority' for a specific tag, just because I'm on level with people in my range, but if that range is lower than I am aiming for, it's not a low priority. This feature should be completely overhauled with the option to specifically choose a score range goal, and then it shows the accuracy needed to obtain that range.

If I am misunderstanding something, please help explain JY #feedback

September LSAT/Encouragement

Just wanted to drop some encouragement here before cancelling my subscription because I finally achieved my goal score! If studying has ever (or chronically) made you feel hopeless, stressed, incapable, sad, etc. I promise you that I have been there. I went from a 152 diagnostic (my lowest PT ever was a 145) to a 164, 161, and 166 official score(s). Choosing to recommit after a decrease is mentally tough, but I promise you that I wouldn’t trade my 164 and my 161 for anything—they got me to my 166! Only you know what you are capable of. My score is the perfect score for me, but it may be considered “low” for someone else or “high” for the person next to them. This is your path and your experience—my biggest piece of advice is to do you, if you have faith in anything or something lean on that, and please work hard. This test will teach you how to better trust yourself, become mentally stronger, block out what others are saying (good and bad), and how to have some heart, discipline, and commitment. I’m cheering for you and I hope you can remember to take some time to cheer for yourself. 💖

Hi!

I'm going to be retaking the LSAT in November, and I'm looking for a study buddy to practice with and to help hold each other accountable! I'm in Colorado, but have no preference for in-person or virtual. My last score was a 170, but I really would like to break through the 170s -- I'd love to study with someone with a similar goal!

My current study schedule is ~3 hours a day (roughly from 3 PM - 6 PM), with full PTs on Thursday/Saturday. I really want to hit that grind 🤞

I look forward to connecting with you! :)

Stamina

Does anyone have any advice for stamina? I do way better on drills than I do on full PT's because my brain turns to mush. I'm getting 3-4 more questions wrong on practice tests than when I do individual sections!

November LSAT

Hey everyone! I'm Will from Toronto Canada and I will be writing the LSAT this November so I intend to stick to an extensive 4-6 hours/day schedule. Reach out if you're nearby, want to keep each other in check or just to bounce questions off each other!

Help! I keep narrowing it down to two answers: the right one and one wrong and picking the wrong. What am I missing that can help me get out of this cycle? Any and all tips/advice appreciated.

Also taking the November LSAT & looking for a study buddy!

  1. On this new website, I do not like how you cannot see the time stamp as the video is playing. Like you aren't able to skip forward and put where you want to watch, as the video is playing.

  2. I wish you would have the total time it took you to drill when you are going over your answers.

LSAT and Admission

Hi. I know I am late to the game, but I just started studying for LSAT (5 weeks ago). Studying 4 hoursish.

I am thinking about taking the LSATs in January! and most schools i am looking into (Chicago), their early application deadline is mid Feb (Reg deadline range is March-April).

My question is, would i be too late for Fall 2025 cycle?

Most of my application work is complete about 60-70% (I have my LOR, transcripts etc). Though, I need to work on Personal statements.

I just need reassurance lol.

Any advice.

Making stupid mistakes on LSAT questions

I've been studying the LSAT for almost a year and I have most of the concepts down. But every practice test I take, I find that I make stupid mistakes because I missed a key term in the stimulus or answer choice, and I choose a wrong answer that I wouldn't have chosen if I just caught it. But it keeps happening and when it does, the only advice I can think of is "read better", which isn't really helpful. Any advice on catching key words and reducing mistakes?

September Woes

I had been studying for the September LSAT for the past few months and was scoring fairly consistently the three weeks leading up to it in the 170-175 range, but after getting scores back today, I had little improvement from my prior LSAT score taken earlier in 2025 and was not at that level.

At the end of the day, it just means that I need to study more and harder and maybe not rush the process. However, what is hard to get over is how discouraging it is. I am worried that even if I get my ideal, higher score on the next go, it will be like a smear to have the low scores on my record. I have score cancel and can do so, but I've a few days to decide. I cancelled my score from earlier this year as context for that.

I am looking to apply next cycle early and therefore have some time. Anyone else in a similar boat/has been in a similar boat? Any thoughts?
