@lsat2016 Sorry, just saw this.
I was averaging around 175 (depends how you count) and got a 174 in the end. Pre-test jitters are a real thing, even if you don't feel them, and I went from a 176 to a 169 the week before the test.
Why do you need t…
LG: This didn't really add up to much for me, but I never wrote anything or labeled problem boards. Setup was back and forth to do the board and add each rule, then another back and forth to check each rule. The first question I usually just did fro…
Just want to add to what @eugenia_yo9 said: I practiced with numbers the whole way and had no issues at all on test day. Didn't slow me down five seconds.
@lexxx745 I've seen you on here nearly every day. You're really dedicated and getting amazing scores now. Studying in the 170s is much more about having a clear head and good testing environment than it is about practice itself. You already know eve…
@noonawoon Thanks for the article! That's very helpful given my goals (full ride at CLS or NYU). It looks like both schools consider your entire testing history, so retaking probably isn't the best idea. Adding the 2-3 point margin of error, and you…
@hcdbsu24 I think we had the same test. I didn't see any typo, but also thought LG was pretty straightforward. I thought some of the LR questions were worded poorly (i.e. 3300 BC is before 3200 BC...), but had no problems finishing with time to spar…
@lexxx745 @jmarmaduke96 I'm 95% sure based on poking around the webpage on LawHub that the test will be on LawHub and not ProctorU. You were actually able to see the screen with the "Take Exam" button for a while: https://imgur.com/hrSkL27
I don't remember exactly where I saw it and can't seem to find it now, but I do remember one of the announcements or FAQs mentioning that a clock will be visible on the page. Presumably that will be the same as the current one on LawHub.
I'm not finding it with a bit of searching. If you saw it on Khan Academy, it's likely an unreleased game that LSAC provided to them. Otherwise, it might be written by a prep company and unofficial.
@ahnendc-1 @noonawoon I'm not so sure about that. They've said that the interface would be the same as LawHub, which does allow finding. Unless there's an explicit rule against it listed somewhere, the worst they can reasonably do is warn you during…
Did a PT yesterday and plan on doing PTs next Sunday and Wednesday and then parts of a PT (probably not even full sections) in the days leading up to the test on Tuesday. I'll save an easy passage, a few easy LRs and an easy game from that last PT t…
@"The Judges" That's true for a lot of schools, but places like Yale don't really care that much about making money in the short term.
Yale Law has a 1.2 billion USD endowment. Their concern with allowing some or most of a class to defer will be wi…
That's the part you pay for with 7Sage...
The preptests themselves are licensed by the LSAC and are part of LSAC Prep Plus. 7Sage offers video explanations for every question, which take an enormous amount of time (read money) on their part to crea…
@username_hello @10000019
I think the statistics for satisfaction are heavily skewed by the large percentage of people going into law just because they don't have a better plan. That's why you probably will see higher satisfaction from the top scho…
Bumping this with a related question: If you retake and reapply in a later cycle, is it harmful to wait for decisions? For example, if UVA rejects you in cycle A and you retake and reapply, are they more likely to reject you in cycle B that if you h…
In the upper 170s, I don't think improvements come from understanding the content or test better, since you are clearly capable of answering every question right.
I've seen with myself that I answer questions better (meaning not missing easy questi…
I looked through some of your earlier posts to get a better idea of where you're at. Assuming your LR improvement has been consistent and you're otherwise doing as well as your initial diagnostic, at this point you're trying to get those last few po…
@lexxx745 I'm happy with my performance, but I am looking for improvements in LR to reach my next score goal. I don't feel like I'm learning per se, but I do think I'm getting better at seeing trap answers and understanding question patterns, which …
The FAQs here say since June 1st, 2014: https://www.lsac.org/lsat/taking-lsat/lsat-scoring
So, it looks like they report scores from the past five testing years and your December 2014 score would be included.

The LSAT is entirely digital in North America now. There is no longer a paper option.
Except for rescheduled Saturday administrations, at least for the 2019-20 testing year.
