Well about exactly what I thought it would be. Just good enough to make me want to forgo November's and just low enough to where I feel compelled to give it another shot (in part due to the LG section on Sep). I really want to g…
How's everyone feeling now that they've got their scores back?
I got the exact score I was anticipating... 164.
-10 on LR1, LR2, and RC combined and whopping -11 on LG alone
I started at a 148 and promised myself I would not give up until I make…
I’m outside of the continental US (Hawaii) and we had digital tests... granted, we are a lot closer to the US than India.
I will say however, that I did NOT study in the digital format at all, even though I knew the test would be digital. I did all…
@Anonymouse-1
Ah... you must be law school bound because your analytical reasoning is on point, haha! First of all, why are you up at 3am? Are you suffering from late night LSAT blues like me?!
I’m in Hawaii so technically “in the states” but arg…
Gosh, 12 hours later and I still want to cry.
I’ve been studying for two years... worked my ass off while working full time to improve significantly in RC and LR, only for all those improvements to be masked by a completely shit LG section. I feel …
My LSAT experience:
I had two LR sections. Felt extremely confident with both. -2 MAX. Then I had LG (usually -1/-0) and I guessed on about 4 questions and did not even ATTEMPT the flower game. Straight Cs all the way down for that one lol. After b…
"The fallacy of the converse" sounds so much more epic than "sufficient-necessary confusion" haha!
Also, I've been thinking about the bonus riddle at the end of the video for three minutes now :'(
Is it two maximum and one minimum? If you open the…

They are referring to the curve for the 170 threshold. Example: You could miss 10 questions on the June exam to get a 170.
Ah, thank you for clarifying!
Okay and can I just say THANK YOU ALL FOR BEING HERE.
This thread is really helping me cope right now and I think I’m finally approaching the stage of acceptance and inner peace lol.
WHAT DOESNT KILL YOU MAKES YOU STRONGER PEOPLE! You all rock
I had LG (super hard) LR LG (sigh of relief... jk this one’s experiment fool!) RC LR
Honestly, after the first LG I couldn’t even remember how to speak English ? it took me a solid 5 minutes to collect myself.
The LR is all a blur. I remember tedd…
Btw, when you guys say the curve is -12... what does that mean exactly? Because it’s highly likely that I got -12 on the LG fml hahaha (nervous laughter)
@VanishingTaxAct @ebalde1234
Actually, thanks for reminding... I had better RC scores when I only focused on the three passages. Maybe I'll return to that strategy. Using the three passage strategy I would consistently get no more than -1/2 acros…
I love it! Hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard— whether we’re talking about the LSAT, law school, or beyond!
The pessimist in me sometimes says that’s just a silly platitude, but your comments and stories have reminded me otherwise…
I don't have a recommendation... Just here to say that I feel you!
I'm taking July and I've had my head in the books since April, though I've studied off and on for almost a year now. With the big day approaching I'm freaking. out. I'm striving for…
Yes, like @"Return On Inference" I used transparency pockets for fool proofing. However, directly on the page, at the top of each game I would write in ink the target time as suggested by JY, AFTER correcting the first time. You donʻt want to worry …
Jokes aside, he sounds like a smart dude and I’m sure he has some valuable insight.. but like everyone else has said up above, you want some who motivates you and helps you achieve your goal... Not someone who distracts you from your goal with behav…
@Redentore3337 Since I'm not Hispanic and I'm not an expert on the history of any Hispanic groups I can't really weigh in... But what you are saying makes total sense I can see how the exclusivity of Puerto Ricans as URM can be really frustrating fo…
According to TLS:
"Which groups are considered URMs?
American Indians/Alaskan Natives, African Americans/Blacks, Mexican Americans, and Puerto Ricans are typically considered URM’s. Please note that there is a difference between Mexicans, P…
I'm pretty much in the exact same situation as you. Stuck in the low-mid 160s, trying to hit high 160s by July. My RC and LG also trade off with each other depending on which one I have drilled that week. I have been off from work for over a month n…
Hey @Lsatkayy thanks for hopping in the convo After receiving some great advice from the people above I also watched a few of the videos on the 7sage admissions site. I don't know WHY I didn't take advantage of this incredible resource earlier. So …
Solid advice guys. I spent a lot of time in and out of juvenile and family court as our family navigated the child welfare system. We also went through a really nasty criminal trial for my husbands parents who got their family into this mess in the …
@LSATStudent780 LOL thanks for the late night response! I'm at least 3 hours behind the rest of the US so I didn't expect anyone to respond til morning anyways! That's a great idea.. I'll definitely make note of how my later grades are more represen…
I second @Emmetropic
If it were me, I would take the opportunity to do a fresh PT at the actual testing location versus waiting a couple weeks to take it back at home or where ever you usually study. You said it yourself that you’ve already studied…
I was in the same situation last summer... taking three classes, working part-time, volunteering, and caring for my two kids. Studying seemed impossible some days! I wanted to take the December 2017 test but ended up postponing to February... Then t…
Late to the party but I have a few suggestions lol
1) Sports movies where the underdog wins or overcomes significant obstacles. Perhaps "Friday Night Lights", "Cool Runnings" or "Rocky" haha these will get you out of your seat for sure. You may eve…
I think the whole point of URM is to have a law school population be more reflective of the entire US population. Most incoming law classes have less than 1000 people. Thus, being a Pacific Islander (aka ~0.1% of US population) would mean that the l…
@testfromaway Like you, I only diagram parallel questions and I stick to using symbols A, B, C, D LOL! No time for none of that diagramming unless I'm really stuck... But I definitely think that more practice will be helpful in improving my speed. …
