I’ve been consistently scoring in the high 160s, and am looking to solidly make it into the 170s by the June test date. I’ve found on my last 3 PTs, I would’ve gotten 172-173 but switched some of my answers from the right choices to the wrong ones at the last second (second guessing myself). Any tips?

June lsats!! Looking to do drill questions together and work on timing.

I keep running into a problem where I miss questions on my practice tests mainly when my mind starts to wander and/or I start to lose focus for other reasons. Does anyone have any tips for avoiding this? Not too too worried about changing my practice test environment, but I AM worried about staying focused on test day!

Also on this vein, what do people eat the morning-of test day (and during the break) to boost energy and stay focused?

Thank you so much — seriously appreciate any and all advice on this:))

When should someone begin to focus on their time during drills in addition to accuracy

Hey all! I'm definitely overthinking this - what room did you take your remote LSAT in? How picky are the proctors about room type? I plan to use a dining room with artwork on the walls, and two doorways with no doors on them. No one else will be home the day of my test. Is this allowed? There are windows, but they have blinds that can be shut.

Hello everyone just finished LR in the CC. I feel like I have a really good understanding of the LR material and exactly what im supposed to be doing for every question type. Even took an untimed section just to solidify this, missed a few and was confused but reviewed and went a revisited some concepts. Now I am on to the reading comp section and need some tips. I don't want to do all the reading comp and have this LR loose steam or forget stuff. Should I be doing weekly drills with LR? also don't want to go through to much material? any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,

I am Jocelyn Naranjo. I am planning on taking the LSAT this upcoming August. Anyone in or around New Haven that would want to form a study group?

Recently started prepping for the LSAT...at 161 right now and not stopping till I have the 180.

I'm thinking about starting an online study group for people that want to seriously crush the August LSAT...anyone want to join me?

(Located in the LA Area btw)

Should I always be reading all of the answer choices? There are some questions in both logical reasoning and reading comp where I see one of the first answer choices and feel like that has to be the right answer. However, sometimes I end up finding a better answer or one that makes me question whether or not it is the right answer. Other times, it turns out that is the right answer, and then I think about how I wasted 10-30 seconds. I struggle to finish the test in time, and sometimes I don't get to answer all the questions, and I have to guess. Is it worth it to just go with it and risk it being wrong? This might give me some extra time on harder questions/ to finish the test. But statistically, does this approach work? Or is it better to take a little longer to guarantee I got the question right?

I will be trying this approach and using the Blind review to see if the odds are worth it, but I want to know if that's a waste of time.

Is there content to teach about specific LR tags? I found a blog post defining each tag, but I am still unsure how to go about handling problems with these tags. For example, ElimOpt is my highest priority and I am reviewing questions with these tags to to piece together what it means, but if there is a video/something explaining how to approach ElimOpt problems, that would be helpful!

Looking for a study group in DC.

Anyone looking for an in-person study buddy in GTA for April 2025? For Fri-Sun only tho. DM's are open!

Loking for a reliable study group for the LSAT of June 2025

TLDR:

The first time I took the LSAT (my diagnostic test) I literally scored a 45. No, you didn’t read that wrong, no it wasn’t a 145, quite literally it was 45. For reference I have never done well at standardized tests, (I'm both dyslexic and have ADHD) I did so embarrassingly bad on the SAT that I didn’t send my scores to universities. But after religiously studying with the 7sage curriculum and receiving the accommodations I desperately needed, I was able to earn a 145 on my second exam roughly four months after my diagnostic! While it was a significant improvement, it wasn’t anywhere near where I wanted to be. I wanted a 170.

I knew that the higher the score I received the more scholarships I could potentially get. I’m an immigrant and first generation college graduate and knew my parents wouldn’t be able to help me financially during law school. I also knew I wanted to go into civil rights work, so I couldn’t rely on any big law money to pay off loans. So I got to work GRINDING on studying for this test.

I worked full time at a law office and every night after work I would come home and study for 2-3 hours each night, except for Fridays which were my rest days. I would take a practice test Saturday mornings and spend Sundays reviewing the results. My mindset for this exam was it is a marathon, not a sprint. I would still go out and have fun with my friends on Saturday nights but instead of drinking tequila sodas like everyone else, I was drinking seltzer water with lemon because I knew I had to be up the next day to study. For an entire year I was primarily sober at parties and events, and still had a great time!

I started studying in January 2023, convinced that I could pull my score up to at least the high 160s by August, and boy was I delusional. I’m sure others would be able to do that, but I most certainly was not. I decided to defer applying for a year to get my score up. I ended up scoring a 161 on the November LSAT. While it wasn’t my dream score and I knew I would have to take the test again, I was still INCREDIBLY proud of myself. Up to that point I had been scoring in the high 150s, so this was a major win. You need to celebrate the small wins along the way.

I used my law firm bonus to pay for tutoring through 7Sage and it was some of the best money I ever spent. They helped me break down what I was missing and I began scoring in the high 160s and had my first 170! I was signed up for the April 2024 LSAT ready to absolutely crush it, and then got laid off from my law firm job (rip) two weeks beforehand. I ended up choking on the test and got a 163. While happy my score had gone up, I was devaaaaastated it didn’t reflect my practice tests. I decided to take a break from studying and took two months off because I was burned out. I started studying again in June 2024 while starting to write my applications and took the September LSAT scoring a 168 in the 95 percentile!

While I had scored higher on practice tests before (I only got to that 170 once) I was still so unbelievably proud of myself because I knew I had given this test everything I could have. I sent out my applications this past fall and am eagerly waiting to hear back from schools (3(/p)

Hello,

My name is Abe and I have been studying for the June 2025 LSAT since February 14. Although I have tutoring on Mon, Wed, Fri with supplementation from 7sage and the LSAT Loophole, I would love to form a study group so we can all benefit ! Anybody else here in LA looking for a study buddy? Let's chat!

I’m gradually grasping several crucial concepts and developing my intuition. Even when I make mistakes, I identify my errors and comprehend the concepts well and in less time.

However, I’m having a large problem: I’m unsure whether it’s more advantageous to read the stimulus first or the question stem. I’ve seen varying opinions, with some suggesting that reading the stimulus first is better, while others promote the opposite approach. What do you guys do, and what are the benefits of doing that approach for you?

Hey all! I have recently joined the course and I finished the Grammar section in the syllabus today. I am wondering if this is a good time to start doing the drills or should I wait till I finish all of the foundations sections? Thanks and happy studying!

Hi everyone, I am wondering if someone has taken the LSAT at the in-person test center in Ottawa. I'd like to do that to avoid potential difficulties with WiFi/proctor because I just get so paranoid thinking about those. But I want to know how that experience has been for those who's done it there? Thank you!

Took a diagnostic test with no studying and scored a 157. Did the foundations section and then scored a 158. Then about half way through the LR curriculum I scored a 153. Scared to take another test and see results drop or not improve. Has anything like this happened to others and how did you deal with it?

Hello everyone!! Does anyone have any information on taking the international LSAT? Is it the same exam and does it look ok on law school applications?

I am thinking about moving abroad for a year before attending law school (a life long dream of mine), however I'm worried about taking the LSAT and if taking the international test is a good idea? From my understanding if you're not psychically in the US or Canada you can't take the regular exam and need to register for one of the specified international dates, so this would be my only option if I chose to go. This is probably a niche question, but any insight would be helpful. Thank you!!

I am consistently getting 80% when I select for highest difficulty level on MC questions. Is it worth continuing to focus only on MC questions, or should I move on to other topics? Not sure what the ideal strategy is.

I took my diagnostic in January. Since then I have studied a little and taken two more PTs. While I have been reviewing my wrong answers I haven't really been committed to studying since I am taking the summer to do so for the August test. I took a PT each month just to build a stamina but was surprised when I jumped up 6 points on the second and then 6 more on the third. I am having some imposter syndrome since I haven't studied the way I should be to getting those jumps. Is this random luck? Was my diagnostic just lower than I was capable of? Is this normal for beginners?

Hi guys,

I'm making my way through the Core Curriculum and need people to study and discuss these concepts with. Currently on Logic of Intersecting Sets / almost done with the Foundations section.

153 Diagnostic, looking for a 170+ final LSAT score in June 2025.

If there are sherpas willing to guide, or others in the same boat, please hit me up!

Trying to make this a consistent group meeting 1-2x a week so we can tackle this thing together and achieve our goals.

Looking for someone studying in the Northern VA area that is willing to meet up every Saturday/Sunday to go over questions. I'm in the mid 170s to high 170s looking to perfect my approach by explaining questions to other folks. Please dm if you're interested and I will make a discord.

Help I am having trouble dealing with both conditions…the sufficient condition and the necessary condition in the pasaje of MBT, MSS & MBF. When I go to look for an answer I get confused because I always see extreme language like “only if, always & others”. And those anwears only benefit the neccesary part so I end up discarting them. In the blind reviews I even get them wrong. Do you guys have any recomendations? I think Im looking for the ideal anwear & I know its not present.
