Making Silly Mistakes

Hi everyone,

I wanted to send this out into the void in case others are in a similar boat. A consistent issue (?) I've been having is making the occasional, but still annoyingly frequent, silly mistake. Most often, I've identified my mistake is not "zooming out" on an easy question and seeing that the answer is so incredibly obvious, and instead getting lost in the sauce of critical thinking. Also, I'll occasionally identify the wrong conclusion in a stimulus and then realize during review that I was incorrect, but it was just a goof rather than fundamental misunderstanding.

I'm a high scorer and would like to focus my energy on the handful of questions I find actually hard, rather than keep getting disappointed by my silly mistakes/overthinking. Does anyone have any tips or drill recs to help me from overthinking questions and getting them wrong?

Thanks!

Purchasable AI Credits

Well, due to an extra boring stint of time at work pre holiday and a rainy Fourth of July weekend I managed to run myself out of my usage limit on the AI. I know there are differences in the plans for AI usage limits. The thing is there is no descriptive qualities to these limits. Will I go from Live to coach and only get to have three more question sets from it? There is also no other appeal to the coach plan for me being I don't have the time or inclination to meet with real coaches over zoom anyways (I assume other people are in the same boat). Purchasable AI time along with the students overall realization that the AI is quite adept at writing questions that they haven't seen before seems like a very profitable area to expand into. I know I would purchase them as I have spoken with the AI until it has gamified writing new questions and prompts for me daily then breaks down where my reasoning for every answer is correct or incorrect. I don't know if this will be something that you guys decide to do but it would be nice and it would probably be a needed advent to described how the ai timing is being purchased (text amount, message amount, other) and how much you really get with each plan to make it obvious as the whether it is a worthwhile upgrade. Hope this at least brings up some conversation about it.

hi guys! i took the june lsat and was satisfied with my score, but i literally want 2 points higher, as that can make or break some admissions, and it's just not happening. obviously my blind review can be 4 points higher after a pt, so i have understanding, but i still am stuck.

any insightful tips, whether serious or just a quick life hack that worked, that will help me out? i want to be done! i've only gotten that target score once in april on a pt.

Hi, first of all I wanted to say the 7sage games are awesome and there's so much variety it's incredible. However I noticed there's no game for argument part and I think it would be a very useful game. Something along the lines of in the first few levels it's just finding the conclusion. As difficulty progresses so do the task of finding other parts like find a concession, premise, sub-conclusion or other's argument. I feel like this game would be really awesome and help with many different kind of question types such as Main Conclusion, Argument Part, SA, NA and so on. I hope this suggestion helps in some way and I look forward to seeing a game like that sometime.

I had a conversation recently with a lawyer that I know, who recommended that I take the lsat in April or June instead of February. He told me that he remembers that being the time of year where they experiment a little with the questions? Can anyone confirm or deny this? Is it the kind of thing where I would be doomed if I took the test in February lol

First section in months

Hey y'all! Am I justified in feeling a little excited/proud about this score?

For context, I'm active duty military, and I basically just study/watch a video or two/do a couple questions for a few minutes to an hour each evening due to the demands of work. I try to tackle more questions on the weekends but I honestly get a little burnt out. I've been doing this for the last few months, but I plan to ramp up my studying over the next year, as I aim to take the LSAT next June/July. This was my first section since I started the program around last December.

Hello!

I'm someone looking to take the LSAT in the September or October Administration and am aiming for a 175+ LSAT score. I'm trying to dedicate a few hours everyday to preparing for the LSAT but am not used to studying outside of an academic setting or without friends to motivate each other. I live in the Greater Milwaukee Area in Wisconsin and am comfortable meeting up occasionally to study in-person, but realistically am looking for friends to motivate each other and/or study with over something like Discord. My time zone is CST but please feel free to reach out from wherever as my availability is flexible!

Hello friends !

My name is Alex and I am a highly motivated August, September, and October future LSAT test taker.

CS: 170

TS: 178+

I previously studied over winter break 2025, took my first administration after PTing up to 177, and landed a 170 in January.

Long story short I am looking for one other motivated person to keep accountable and help keep me accountable in addition to talking through some tough questions and troubleshooting with each other.

I am located in an EST zone and have a pretty flexible schedule. I will caveat that I take this test very intuitively, which means I am not familiar with many of the lsat preppy terms. I am currently trying to trim down mistakes made on harder LR questions and the toughest of RC passages. My scoring range is 168-177 as of now. My goal over the next month is to reduce my errors by 1-2 per section so that I can land in the high 170s at least once out of my remaining 4 attempts, 3 of which will be taken this autumn.

If you are interested please reach out to my personal number at 857-205-7233 with whatever info about yourself you think is relevant. 🙂

Late starters

Hi!

I’m currently 30 and my diagnostic 154, im thinking of signing the LSAT in November. I study but go back in forth with being worried about starting so much later in age.

Any late(r) starters here?? What do you do to keep yourself motivated?

Hi everyone! I'm looking for an LSAT study buddy who's interested in studying together on a regular basis.

I live in East Harlem, and my office is on the Upper East Side (though I don't have to go in every day, or I can head there after lunch). I'm hoping to find someone who can meet in the mornings for 2–3 hours of focused study, ideally every weekday.

We could study at a library or a coffee shop on the Upper East Side or in Midtown. The goal is simply to keep each other accountable and stay focused.

If you're interested, please feel free to text me at 347-278-6689.

Balancing LSAT Study and Application Prep

Hi everyone! I made a post about this a couple of weeks ago, and I can confidently say I haven't been balancing things well. :(

I feel like I'm not making enough progress on either my LSAT prep or my applications.

I've definitely been spending much less time studying for the LSAT than I should, and I'm getting really nervous since my August LSAT is only four weeks away.

At the same time, all I've done for my applications is put together a school list. I still haven't figured out my personal statement outline.

Does anyone have advice on how to balance both? I want to stay disciplined and make solid progress on both my LSAT and my applications, but it honestly feels overwhelming. How are you all managing your time?

Is there any benefit to turning it off? Does it "inflate" your BR score? I start my practice block this week, aiming for 1-2 PTs a week (I work full time and have 4-5 weekly dr/pt appointments so not too much time in a day). I want to maximize my BR benefit. My hesitation with keeping it on is that it points out questions that I did not flag and instead felt confident on, prompting me to review them only because it's recommended. I don't look at why it was flagged because if it says the question was incorrect, I know I can eliminate the answer choice without fully going through the logical reasoning. All this to say, does anyone have any thoughts on this/which was is more beneficial? I took the test in 2023 and scored a 160, but I did not do any BR in my very few PTs I took (only 3 highest being a 166). I'm aiming for 165-170 by September/October. Thanks in advance!

Progress

I have been at this now hardcore for a number of months, for the first time in a long time I feel like I am actually making progress growing towards my goal. Rather than testing at 150, I am seeing 155 with my blind reviews into the 60s.

Its humbling to think that time is the greatest teacher and that progress comes to those who are consistent. One day it will all make sense to you and fall in God's plan. Trust the process, embrace the journey, and never give up. While you may not see the tangibles from day to day, month to month however is where the progress shines through.

To everyone, keep up the great work!

😖 Frustrated

ADHD and studying

I am taking the August LSAT and despite beginning my studying half a year ago I am still stuck in the 150s and fluctuating between 150-156ish. The biggest problem I have is that I cannot sit still and focus for long periods of time. Has anyone else with ADHD found a way to deal with this?

Would greatly appreciate any advice!

Gpa

i have the worst gpa on the planet lol, and I’m not the greatest standardized test taker. Im shooting for 176-180 because my GPA is that bad. Idk when to take the test but i hope that i can get the right score and get used to this test because whew, im nowhere near my goal right now. Im depending on this.

I am retaking the LSAT in October, and figured I would just apply in october/november once my score was released. My question is should I apply when apps open in September with my old score and then have CAS automatically update it, or do future test date and have the score updated once it is in.

I am submitting applications for the second time this fall, with the plan to attend law school in the Fall of 2027. I have two letters of rec that I used last cycle from my college professor and college debate coach. I have been working for almost a year now as a legal assistant, and I am trying to decide if adding a third letter of recommendation would help for my applications (for places where three are accepted). If I do include one, I would also need to decide if I ask someone I work with now or a professor from college. Does anyone have advice on how to decide the number of letters and who to ask?

Hi, I have taken the LSAT twice officially (nov 25 and jan 26) and have gotten basically a 145 on both tests. (yikes.) I thought I could make a big score jump, but obviously didnt. I am now planning on taking it in October, and I have been studying the past 3 months or so. On my blind reviews of my PTS, I have gotten 157-160. However, my actual score has not really gotten any better. I am genuinely struggling and am having a hard time identifying what it is that I am doing/understanding incorrectly. I've been stuck in the high 140's for months now, and I desperately want to see my score improve as soon as possible. The pressure of the time I have left to improve is definitely getting to me and I am starting to panic. I want to see myself improve so very bad. My goal score is at least a 160. If there is any tutor out there that could help me out, please please please let me know !!!!
