For UMN I also followed the same process. I received an email from the director of admissions on 4/19/21 and had a phone call gauging my seriousness cycle process, discussion of scholarship amounts from other schools I placed seat deposits. On 4/22/…

For any people who did their first writing sample for the Jan 2021 LSAT Flex, many days roughly did it take for LSAC to approve your writing sample?

You have like 7 months, you definitely do NOT need to be studying 35 hours/week. That's 5 hours a day and highly unrealistic even for someone not working full time to maintain from the end of January until August. Try to set a…
What I did was start small to get my feet wet, discovered my weaknesses and went from there. Even 10 hours a week will make a difference, with seven months until your test I think you could make some strides with 10 hours or so a week, the challenge…

Those of you who took the exam, What are your plans for the next couple weeks??

@dutchiebrown wow!! what kind of accommodation would i need to get more time.
There are various reasons in which you may qualify for accommodations. Sadly for the January LSAT it is too late to submit an accommodation reques…
@LSATbekee said:
@pinklights98 thanks for confirming. i read somewhere that it was 50mins each section
If you have accommodations the timing is more than 35 minutes but if you do not, it is just 35 minutes per section.
One way to bypass paying the additional $100 is to apply and be approved for a fee waiver through LSAC. They will include the LSAT Prep Plus along with your fee waiver.
I took down all my notes and files, they hang right above my work space. I plan on covering my tv, everything is put away in my storage closet just in case. I have triple monitors and I plan on covering those with a sheet/blanket as well.
I completed the written portion yesterday, it was pretty simple. Just remember the basics for writing, keep your argument organized and make sure it makes sense. Good luck yall
You are supposed to go into LSAC and click the link to launch the writing sample.
Click on LSAT Writing - scroll to the bottom of the page and you should see it.

Everyone's different... some people get good outcomes just piling on PT after PT. I think that's kind of like brute forcing a score increase just by sheer volume of exposure... not nearly the most efficient. In my opinion,1 a…
Friendly suggestion, perhaps taking a bit of a break may help. Coming back to see things with a fresh set of eyes. When I get stuck I make myself take a break 24-48 hours and come back rested and I seem to perform better.
I think moving back in is difficult for some (like me) but, I plan to move back in with my parents for 5-6 months to save more money before I head off to school. I would think about the long term situation concerning finances and what is best for yo…
I'm terrible at testing, mine was 129 when I started mid-October I've been ranging from 164-167 I plan to sit for the January LSAT my goal score is 170. I've studied consistently with one test per week. Don't give up, you can do it!!
@diamonte said:
Looking forward to your 170 post as well! I honestly think you'll break through that ceiling. Best wishes to you and your journey!
Thanks for sharing. Your transparency is helping more than you know.
Thank you! you all'…

I started with 2 hours a day three times a week. I've increased it to five days a week, 5 hours a day of study. I'm using the LSAT Review book in addition to 7sage. I drill every other day…
