Step 1 is to do an evaluation. Do another section and start with the last 10. See if you're getting them wrong because of difficulty or because of endurance.

Hi There,
I wrote the LSAT for the first time during the July exam and I feel like I completely froze. I barely feel like I even read any of the LR questions (my first section) as I couldn't take in any of the information a…

When should you start studying for the LSAT? The first mistake students make is underestimating …
Thanks @rjp12345 @italian_taco @FindingSage
I've signed up for August. It's nice to know there are others in the same boat (at least so I know we're all suffering together). Fingers crossed for those who don't cancel that we don't need to go thro…

help - Is there anything like this for Canadian Law schools?
Echoing this person's statements -- would love something like this for Canadian law schools.

Hey everyone, I took the test yesterday at 10:50, and the format was LR26 (electric bacteria) - LG (tv or print) - RC (volcanic ash plumes, Algonquin tribe, Literary theory and science, Women’s marriage law reform in Engla…

Anyone have issues highlighting?
I did some tests on the lawhub interface beforehand. Highlighting/Underlining is a crapshoot on it, never seems to highlight what you want and you run the risk of randomly highlighting half th…

My system keeps crashing, and I was supposed to start half an hour ago. Did anyone else experience these issues? I'm worried I won't be able to take it today anymore because of all the technical issues.
Are you using a MA…
I had LR->LG->RC. LR and LG were fairly straight forward (LR had a few tricky questions, I remember something about electric bacteria, and another question about mulch and soil). LG had no curveballs that I noticed.
RC I had volcanos, native …
One thing that helped me is to ask myself why I don't get perfect untimed. You should theoretically be able to do that. And when I looked at where I was going wrong, it helped me start seeing trap answers, and simultaneously helped me start zeroing …

@"jeff.wongkachi" If I could ask, how do you think the Trainer and 7sage are complementary, and in what ways? I am planning on getting the Trainer, but I am unsure if it will help substantially.
Hi Anthony, I have a bit of…
Unfortunately there's no silver bullet to improve by 20~ scaled points in a month and a half. A score of 139 means you're getting more than half the questions wrong. Even if you foolproof LG and get 20 extra raw points (assuming you basically went -…
I think the key is to get enough games in your rotation. This is important because one major initial problem I had with foolproofing is that I remembered the answers. But at some point, I was grinding out multiple sections a day, and had a lot of LG…
Might as well do October if you can do October. It's realistically possible to get to -0/-1 with good LG foolproofing. Look at what happens to your current score if you just go 0 in LG. LSAT isn't a crammable test, have to take it low and slow and l…
In that case, you should definitely go through the Core Curriculum! It will reinforce certain aspects of the Trainer's lessons or add to them. That way you're better equipped when you actually start doing mixed problem sets/sections/PTs. Take specia…
Hey, I started off with the Trainer too. I feel like 7sage and the Trainer are quite complimentary.
Have you done a diagnostic yet? I think that's step 1 to see where your strengths and weaknesses are. That way you can work out a study schedule bas…
Mostly reviewing my old material. I did grind out one last new LG set but other than that I want to review what I got wrong, at least make sure I don't fall for what I've fallen for before. I read 1 RC passage a day and do the questions, and I revie…
@15ahrm said:
Honestly don't know what either of those are eek
Well, I think I see your problem! These are both key parts of the core curriculum/your study. Doing PTs is only one part of it, and not even the most important part. The most imp…
I think sometimes having an anticipation is good, but for now if you're still fairly early on in your prep it's okay to not anticipate for now. This might sound counter-intuitive, but you kind of have to see what the LSAT's 'meta' is so to speak and…
Do you have to take July? Sounds like burn out/psyching yourself out. This might suck but you might need to take a break and re-evaluate, especially if you're not scoring where you want to score.
What interests me is that you've done 20 PTs. How is…
The sounds stupid, but it works stuff in case you haven't already done it:
Sleeping properly
Cut out booze
Get rid of social media (sounds like you've already done this one, I got rid of FB since I found myself checking it all the time personall…

What did they mean by this? As in some questions, verbatim, were repeated? I would assume this is in the LR section, if so.
From my understanding, there are some tests that are undisclosed. Usually in February every year. …
Hi, I basically only did digital PTs so I never used highlighting/underlining strategies. I write out little low-res on my scrap paper and that's generally enough. As long as your low-res properly gives you the general ideas, when they ask for somet…

I'm into this lesson about the LSAT and life in general. Meditation has improved my focus along with cutting out alcohol (for the past two months and counting). I exercise regularly. It's …
If you haven't already, try doing untimed sections with old RC. If you can't get perfect untimed, there's fundamental issues that you can fix. Understanding how you fixed those issues then applying it to timed sections can help you get more points.

You have a fairly limited amount of prep material and it's important to keep it fresh so you attack it for the first time once you have a framework for how to deal with the questions. I would recommend staying away from PTs for now. I know it might …
