I think it's worth considering your financial situation, as someone who is extremely poor, I saved some money buying the paper tests, and I believe I still got everything 7sage had to offer, it just would have been easier to be ultimate +. You can …
It's never been an option, and besides that one test LSAC has announced no plans of making that a feature in the future. It's because of the transition in test formats.

Great job! Sounds like we had a similar experience. I was PT-ing 163-165 going into the test but I got 158 in September. But I got 165 in November, same as my highest practice score!
Test anxiety was probably the…
Most schools just consider your best attempt, especially those with LSAT medians 165 and below, so i would not worry too much about this. That being said, this score will look bad to schools that consider all LSATS, since they will assume your true…
You didn't have as much anxiety this time, that's pretty much all you need to say. In November you worked in reframing the way you thought LSAT, didn't feel as much anxiety and was able to reach the score that properly represents your ability. Th…

Text anxiety was definitely an issue for me. I believe my score reflected that as well. RC brought my score down as well. How did you go about bringing that score up?
Honestly brute force with RC just doing eight to twelve p…

Do you mind sharing how you did that?
Anxiety was a huge issue for me in September, I was PTng 165-169 going into September and then bombed, this time was more prep for RC and just way less anxiety cuz i knew i could get thr…

This may be a bit unconventional, but is it possible to retake in January and ask for reconsideration? (If you can bring it above a 160 that is) I read that someone did exactly that, same cycle, and the admissions committee rev…

I've never been a perfect scorer on LG but at my peak was consistently around -2. I stayed stuck at about -4/-5 for a while when I realized that rule substitution questions were a huge time suck for me. I decided to start ski…

Be sure not to delay any parts of your application. I took the test in December and it took me a couple weeks after scores were released to get my application ou…
there was never any breakthrough moment for me, I eventually just started scoring better and better until I averaged around-1. I usually finish with 1-5 min to spare, and I just methodically move thru the game, and I apply rules in a systematic way …
I recently wrote a best case/ worst worst case for each section and used that to estimate my score, and I also ended up with 169.
I then expanded that to a chart to something that I'm giving to my partner and friends, that explains my emotional rea…

@Jaytrong I believe @"Simple Man" is making a 69 joke
Side note: this is now the second time I've had to explain a 69 joke on the 7sage forum. I'm either doing this whole forum thing wrong orrrrrr really right

I'd be careful with this. I think the first question is, what was this letter about? If you we're standing up for a social justice issue that you felt was really important, then it could be a good topic. But if not I'm skeptical.
I totally commend you wanting to take risks in the personal statement, but this is not the way to do it. Be bold in what you write, but not in how you format or your medium. They are asking for an essay, so give them an essay. You can be poetic in…
There have definitely been circle games recently, but they have not been described as circle games. For example, they will explain them as a 5 lap relay race, where the first runner will run both the first and last lap. Anytime you have a sequenci…

If this were to happen, I think it would mean that the tests would not be disclosed and LSAC wouldn't release PrepTests (as ETS doesn't). GRE can have admi…

Yes it has. For my first two takes I chalked it up to lack of preparation. However since June I have gone above and beyond as explained in my first post and saw massive improvements going into the test. I went into Novem…
Interesting Discussion! I'm worried about the cost of access for students. Since the paper tests are likely to become sub optimal method of study as opposed to the digital, they need to substantially reduce the price of digital LSAT tests, right n…
I found this game quite easy, but also felt like there we're some big inferences that needed to be made that could potentially complicate things if you missed them, also the game necessitated just "trying to make stuff fit", like if you just start t…
I can totally relate to this post, Anxiety can be a crushing barrier to success on the LSAT. Some anxiety is fine, but if your "fight or flight" response is triggered due to too much anxiety, your body will release adrenaline and your brain will es…
Thanks everyone! Deadline is Dec 1st for UBC. I already applied, and deadline for supporting documentation is Jan 1st. I think honestly it can't hurt so i'll probably ask my references to send a copy to UBC if they have the previous letter saved …
