  • This largely depends on several factors: your target score, your current PT range, and how much time you would be willing to put in for that score. If you are looking for a 5 point increase from 160 to 165, 20 PTs might be plenty and you shouldn't r…
  • Oh, I see what you are talking about. That's a good catch. It really all comes down to whether you interpret "Only three-bedroom apartments have balconies" as "Only three-bedroom apartments have multiple balconies" or as "Only three-bedroom apartmen…
  • Any apartment that has more than two bedrooms is not above the fourth floor (contrapositive). Hence, any three-bedroom apartment is not above the fourth floor. Only three-bedroom apartments have balconies. Hence, the only apartments with balconies i…
  • The biggest gap between BR and the actual score happens due to time management. Set up a clear time strategy that works for you. I usually aim for first 12 under 10 min but first 14 under 15 min is my worst case scenario as it leaves just enough tim…
  • If your goal is to improve from 158 to 165, don't restrict yourself to just drilling. What you've been doing the past 3-4 weeks sounds like a good plan. However, I don't recommend using any of the newer PTs (70+) for drills; save them for actual te…
  • If you PT 1-35 AFTER the CC, then there's going to be an overlap of question's you've already done. Naturally, your score will be higher on those PTs. Aside from that though, I do think that PTs in the 40s were mostly very bland and also saw a few p…
  • Unfortunately, he actually gave up after his first LSAT and applied to a domestic law school.
  • If you had multiple tabs up on your browser, get rid of them. Turn off any unnecessary programs.
  • First time takers can also sign in early by going to ProctorU, go to sign in, put in email, use forget password to create a new password, and then logging in. This works because LSAC creates the ProctorU account for you before they send them out. I …
  • Did they send out an email for Jan Flex Asia time slots already? I got an email saying they send an email 12 noon Eastern Time Jan 7th.
  • Accept the fact that there may be games where you don't get every question correct. If you come across a difficult game that might cause you to sink time, skip it and come back later. Don't let that one game ruin the rest of the section. Especially …
  • I take the simulate Flex version, and take the second LR section in Problem Sets after a 15 minute break. I use both the Flex score and the 4 section score as a loose marker of where I am at.
  • I was hitting 165-168 on PT1-20 when I first started 7sage and found the CC to be repetitive at my level of preparation. I only used parts of the CC to supplement my weaknesses during PT while PT+BR and problem set drills took up most of my study ti…
  • I'm an international student from Asia as well (attending US college though). From what I've heard from some of my friends who have made it to, or are preparing for US law schools, and from what I've seen on online forums, I would aim for slightly h…
  • You're probably not getting worse. PTs vary in difficulty, and your weakness in certain types of questions or sections can be more exposed when difficult PTs target such areas. My advice to you would depend on your target score. But as a general rul…
  • While a fluctuation between 172 and 159 might feel alarming, try to shake off the times that your scores dips. Fluctuations are normal and there are factors outside of your control that might accentuate those fluctuations a bit. For example, if you…
  • What methods have you employed in studying for the last three months? It's best to experiment and figure out what works for you. Considering there is only a month until the January exam, I'll just talk about what methods worked for me. For LG, I dr…
  • If there are any questions (like parallel flaw and reasoning) for which I picked the first answer choice I found attractive and moved on, I go back to eliminate other answer choices there. Also, I found that going through just my answer choices, ei…
