I definitely wouldn’t want to study new, timed material while sleep deprived, but I might review previous logic games or review other core curriculum material. Sometimes, though, it’s just better to rest & recover.
-
I would be down to! I'll message you. Anyone else interested, feel free to message me as well
-
I'd be happy to swap! Feel free to inbox me with your email so we can exchange!
-
Yes I'd love to!
-
I'd be happy to do an essay exchange, I just finished my PS

I too scored somewhat lower than I felt about the exam. I also only scored one point higher than my October flex (which had technical issues & pets going wild during it.)

Anyone else score lower than they felt about it?

I made a calendar and put in the pts backwards from my exam date. You could save one from each “decade” in case of a retake. I’d use the earlier PTs that won’t be actually used for PTs as extra material to drill with.
-
Save your practice tests until after you finish the core curriculum. You’ll then want to then take maybe 1 (or potentially 2) practice tests a week. Plan out so the newest practice test is taken closest to your lsat date. Taking practice tests is a …

The flex is scored differently than normal, as each question is still weighted equally. This means LR went from counting for 50% of your grade to only 33%. RC & games both jumped from only 25% each to roughly 33% each as well. RC counts a little…

The other person’s method seemed easier lol.

I personally had to work while studying but if you can go without, it’s not a bad idea. There may be a sweet spot of only working part time or doing a more relaxed internship if possible while studying
-
I agree with taking more time based on that score. That said, if you want a little more time to to decide, you can schedule your LSAT now and then MAKE SURE you postpone the exam to a different date by the free date change deadline if you still have…

Some people also take it twice. So I took one in October and one in February; however, I’m not applying for this current cycle, I’m applying in the cycle that opens in the fall. I came into this not sure how long I needed to study so sort of began s…
-
I didn’t find it very important. I’d never take a math test before I studied the formulas. I personally think prep courses like you to do poorly so 1) you NEED their course and 2) their course looks like it did so much when in fact it was just any o…

Consider looking at the schools reported data about admitted students, which is required by the ABA. Harvard at least has information about their GRE stats as well as the LSAT.
-
You can look up each school’s ABA data to see how their alumni line up with what you want to do, to give a general idea if that school will help you succeed. That said, you can totally be successful outside of t-14 in most things

I worked a lot and I personally took 6 months the first time and another 5ish months the second exam, for about a year in total. I worked and thought I’d be able to study a lot more than I could. It’s a very strange test to study for because it’s ha…

To clarify, if you lose internet during the exam, you need to follow certain steps if it’s longer than a moment, but I was hoping and praying the WiFi was going to reconnect on its own very quickly which it did.
-
You should sign in to proctoru a little before your scheduled time. It’s a good idea to plug your laptop in, get your paper and pencils set up, and make sure to test your system requirements. If you use a mouse, don’t forget to put that on the desk …

Thank you for everyone who submitted poll responses & @themommabear specifically for giving me a written out response!! Taking all of your responses together & speaking with my parents, I decided not to postpone a second time. So wish me luc…

Congratulations!! So happy for you!

I score anywhere from -3 to -0 on an LR section, typically -1. I find that ranking my flagged LRs is helpful, especially with maintaining my timing. Most of the time, I have very few "true flags" in LR. But sometimes when a question seems easy OR if…

@sfbunting1 said: Good question and I certainly see the value in discussing that. On average my RC score would be in the -3 to -1 range, but I have hit -0 a fair number of times. That said, I will still occasionally have an off day in the -6 t…

You mentioned getting -0 in RC, was that uncommon for you before using this strategy? (i.e. what amount of improvement did you see, generally?)

To clarify, you can definitely move your mouse to scroll throughout the stimulus/passage, just like you can highlight and underline (it looks exactly like the practice tests on lsac's lawhub website). But I'm also 99% sure that I could use my mouse …

I'm 99% sure I was able to use my cursor!
