First time test taker :)
Need help with how to go about it and what it will be like? Also, any helpful resources apart from the ones we have on 7Sage?

    @Mansi You're welcome! LSAC also recently released a writing sample practice prompt on LawHub, which you might want to check out.

    I took writing the other day. I'm also first time. It was really simple and quick, don't fret about it at all!

    Literally just don't worry. If you can put together a logical string of sentences in a somewhat argumentative format - you're more than fine. Schools only really care if (i) you leave it blank, or; (ii) the writing is SIGNIFICANTLY inferior to that of your personal statement/optional essays

    Also, check out the video tutorials on LSAC on how to start up the on-demand proctoring software and test that out beforehand with their "Get Acquainted" link - it helped me figure out there is a slight issue with my Macbook where it would duplicate words I typed and that wouldve freaked me out if I started the section without knowing it would do that. All in all, it was really easy and low stress though, so don't fret, you'll do great!
