June 2015 Score (Cold): 158
December 2016 Score (7sage, powerscore, etc): 162
+4, all in LG.
Not a big improvement for 1.5 years of studying, but it's enough for my purposes and I did hit my target score.
I found the whole test to be pretty easy except for two parts.
The first difficult part was RC4 (i.e. Brain Scan). I don't know what happened here--maybe I panicked?--but I kept looking at every answer for the last 4 or 5 questions and just couldn…
@jennilynn89 Precisely my experience! If that 2nd LR were real, that would be so good... but people are saying it wasn't the real one. Seemed too easy anyhow.
I did all the LGs from PT 1-20. And I wrote every other PT from 1-20, and BRed them. I found it helpful, but I'd prioritize the games. Doing the more recent full PTs is almost surely a better option.
Did it say "stress" or "high stress"? The LSAT has a few questions on stress, and the answer is often distinguishing high levels of stress from normal levels of stress. Not sure if that's applicable here.
@"Cant Get Right" Thanks for that link. Looking at the previous few years' December tests, their wait times to release scores are all approximately thirty days, which is about a week later than June/Sept tests (probably due to the holiday).
I'm n…
I would recommend talking to students at the school you are interested in to ask them what scores they and their classmates were accepted with. As Stevie said, you can also check the school's average admission scores.
I did 7sage lessons in almost a random order. It's usually better to go in the order that JY recommends, BUT, you'll notice that JY often says, "For this lesson, it's critical that you have done the lesson on Invalid Argument Forms, so if you haven'…
@"mk940808" They could make an example of someone and disqualify him/her. That would het the others in line fast. Or at least give a warning that anybody with a phone out in 60 seconds will be DQ'd.
Are scores really released Jan 4? I wrote last December and received my score the same month. Also, if you google "how long to find out lsat score" google responds with "about three weeks". The article is from 2010, however.
@hakeemmuhammad498 Sucks that that happened... it's completely unfair. What can you do though except hope for the best despite the proctor's attitude toward you. Looks like you got made an example of.
@hakeemmuhammad498 Are you really surprised? How else could the proctor ensure that you weren't using Tissue Code?
1 tissue = A
2 tissues = B
1 tissue folded in half = C
2 tissues folded in half = D
crumpled tissue = E
I was LR-RC-LR-LG-LR. I don't remember any of the questions.. does anybody who had my pattern know which LR of the three (1st, 2nd, or 3rd) was experimental?
There are some people who are unable to pass public high school courses, let alone achieve a 170 on the lsat. Everybody is different. I don't think there's much point in dwelling on what other people can or can't do.
For you: there's only one wa…
I worked through evey page og powerscore LG and my score did not improve. I've been doing 7sage LG for a couple weeks. Score is improving. I trust in JY's method because it has given me results by actually helping me to UNDERSTAND what is going on…
@Can't get right:
>You only get three shots at it, so it's important to make them count.
It was my understanding that you can take the test as many times as you like, but not exceeding three times in two years. Am I wrong?
I'm in the same boat. I wrote June 2015 and December 2015. I wrote June cold and December with some study. I'm starting with 7sage now for June.
I disagree that studying without BR is a complete waste. Yes, it's sub-optimal and a waste of poten…
