I have been going through the Foundations portion of the Lesson Plans, and was on the section of Necessary and Sufficient indicators. I did notice that one of the lessons said that if we are practicing these, we are eventually going to become natural with these if we have months of practice. However, if we are on a time crunch and have 1 month or so, and are already scoring low 150s, what area is more beneficial to focus on mastering in order to achieve maybe 5-10 points more?

Yeah, he DNP'd Austin Reaves and Rui. He also treated Taurean Prince like he was his own flesh and blood. But is he wrong when he tells us to read and understand the stimulus before moving on to the answer choices? Hell no! So go hard on them LSAT questions! Salute!

Is there a way to blind review a practice test I accidentally chose not to? I haven't looked at the answers... I just need an "undo" button to go back and select the right link to blind review. I'm so frustrated I did that and am hoping it is fixable. Has anyone else been in this situation before and been able to troubleshoot?

Hi there! My name is Ariana, and I am aiming to either write the June or August LSAT this summer, going for a 170. I will be studying at UofT come mid-April, and am looking for anyone who is motivated and driven to join! My hours would be 9-5pm, probably in Robarts or other libraries on campus. Let me know if you are interested!

I know you can filter to show only the most recent PT and drill data but I want to start fresh w a blank slate. Is it possible to wipe everything without having to manually delete hundreds of drills? If so is there a way to retain my notes and bookmarked questions?

Hi! I'm suffering from the classic issue of struggling to break free of the -4/-3 rage on timed sections and PTs, -1/-0 on BR. My BRs are consistently around 175 or higher, but the end goal is to avoid making those silly mistakes on the real thing. For those consistent 170+ scorers, were there any concepts, sayings, things you heard, or anything in your studying habits that just made things click? It could be regarding a specific question type, a common trap you were falling for, a classic flaw, anything.

😖 Frustrated

160 Plateau - Tips Please!

Hi! I am really struggling and would love any help/tips regarding taking sections or study schedules. For the past month, I've consistently been stuck at 159/160 and have yet to break 160. I am aiming for June and really want a 170+. I just did another section today and got a 159 and 172 BR. I am extremely frustrated and have no idea how to choose the correct answer between 2, not fatigue during the exam, understand RC, etc. I've been doing 1/2 reading passages throughout the week and drilling level 3-5 questions and reviewing them all each day - I'm not sure where I should go next. If anyone could please let me know what helped them, that would be great! Thanks so much!

You've been grinding through your LSAT prep and finally start seeing scores in the mid-to-high 170s, only to fall back to the high 160s on your next practice test. Sound familiar? In this episode, @AlexJacobs and @BaileyLuber break down a question from a student dealing with exactly that kind of score variance. They discuss what's behind those frustrating swings, how tension and underconfidence can quietly tank a score, whether a partly fresh PT can inflate your results, and what you can actually do to build consistency when you're trying to break out of a plateau. If you've been stuck in a score range and can't figure out why your best performances aren't sticking, this one's for you.

I am a non-traditional student currently working as an executive full-time (CEO) in a high-stress field. I have been studying for about a year and am scheduled to test on April 9.

My mom passed away on Monday morning after a long battle with cancer, and because I travelled to support my parents, I haven't gotten much sleep in the past week. I think because of the stress and travel, I also got sick and have had a fever of 104-102 for the last few days. I need to stay to support my Dad until next Tuesday, so I will be flying for 12 hrs 2 days before I test.

I am deeply concerned that I will not test as well as I have the potential to, given the strain of the last few weeks, but I also feel like that's a cop out....if I were prepared in the first place, I should do as well as I would have anyway.

Should I just power through and have confidence that my prep will bolster my performance? Is it even possible to reschedule without penalty at this point? If I don't test, then I miss my last shot at this admission cycle, correct? If I test poorly, is it bad form to explain the circumstances?

Hello,

Does anyone have an interest in joining a daily reading comp study group? I took some classes with Bailey, who suggested reading a passage per day. The group is open to all skill levels. Ideally, we can work on the first passage on a reading comp section on one day and the next day do the second passage and continue the pattern. We will complete one passage per day and go through the passage, questions and answer choices with a fine-tooth comb to get a great understanding of the passage.

I'm open to meeting daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, PST.

Happy studying!

I am reading the Economist to study for law school, as someone here or on reddit had mentioned it as a good way to learn how to write in law school. I am wondering if it is also good for reading comprehension. If so, does anyone have any tips for how to study using The Economist?

For example, I am currently thinking of reading an article, then summarizing the main points of the article and the conclusion, and as an extra step, try to state my own opinion on the article. Let me know your thoughts in the comments. TIA

Feeling burned out right before test day? In this episode, @AlexJacobs and @BaileyLuber tackle a question from Sharon, who's been studying for six months and has hit her target score on multiple practice tests but is battling mental fatigue with the April LSAT just days away. The hosts share practical advice on what to do (and what not to do) in the final stretch, including how to structure light study sessions, when to stop taking full practice tests, and why this last week is more about protecting your score than improving it. Bailey also shares a candid look back at her own LSAT journey and the lessons she learned the hard way across four attempts.

Hello!

I’m based in the Alhambra area and am looking to put together a group of people for some in-person study sessions. I have been studying since March, and the score of my most recent practice test was a 159.

I am very serious about my prep for this test, and am looking for equally consistent and disciplined individuals to study with for ~2hr once a week. My target range is 170+. I have some flexibility with my time, and though I would prefer a weekend I am also open to meeting weekdays in the morning.

I am planning for study sessions to take place at the Alhambra Library, in one of their study rooms. I am open to other study rooms within a ~15min radius (i.e. if someone has access to local college study rooms such as PCC). I am looking to have a structured format that would involve warm-ups, drills, and breakdowns.

We may be a good fit if you

- Are using a platform to organize your study

- Have a similar target goal (170)

- Are testing in a similar timeframe

- Are able to commit to once-a-week sessions

- Are comfortable thinking out loud

- Prioritize growth over ego

I’ve been averaging between 20-30 hours of studying a week on my own, and at this stage I feel the support of a few good partners would be extremely beneficial!

If you’re interested, please reach out with:

- Your test date, and if you’ve taken it before

- Your current PT range

- Your biggest LR/RC struggles + strengths

- What you want from a study partner

- What you bring to the table

- Any additional questions you may have for me

If it feels like a good fit, I will move forward with setting a definitive day + time that works for everyone. Thanks for your interest!
