@H_225432 said: I know how you feel, I got rejected from the Canadian schools I applied to as well I've heard its normal though. @Amrina96k do you mind if I send you a message as well? Yes ofcourse, I'd be glad to help in any way I c…

I was literally on the same boat last year. I applied to a number of Canadian Law schools, and was rejected from every one of them. It was definitely a tough situation to be in and very discouraging. I even considered giving up on my dream of going …

@Sami said: The best way to increase your score is going to depend on your section score for those sections. The easiest sections to learn in order are LG, LR, and RC. RC is very easy if you already have active reading skills, but for most peo…

Interested!

They're for Law schools in Canada

@mjmonte17 said: RC is a huge weakness for myself as well. One tip that I use which may help you achieve a better score is to only attempt 3 of the RC passages on the test. If you choose to focus on only 3 passages you can spend more time on e…

@"Leah M B" said: 1) It has no effect whatsoever on your applications as it stands right now. Schools won't care much about a lower score, and certainly not a score that's only 1 point lower. So rest assured, you have done no damage! 2) T…

@eRetaker said: Yeah I think it'll be worth your time to start learning the fundamentals again for a month or two. Manhattenprep LR and RC books may be of interest to you. And having 7sage drilling exercises by question type should help you ge…

@eRetaker said: What's your section by section breakdown? I get -8 to -10 on LR sections. About -5/-6 on LG ( i can never get to the last game within 35 mins), and RC is my lowest section. I get about -15 wrong on RC. When doing BR i get ab…

@"Leah M B" said: No, schools really don't care if you have 1 cancel on your record. They know stuff happens... test center distractions, being sick the day of the test, etc. It only looks bad if you have multiple cancellations - then they wou…

@Canucks350 said: Been reading a fair bit about the January exam. For those who also wrote in November, did you find it to be easier/about the same/more challenging than January? This is obviously a subjective question. Thanks! Definite…

@Chardiggity said: @Amrina96k I believe it's a wash between a cancellation and a lower score. The lower score won't hurt you. With no longer having to average scores, and there no longer being a limit on the number of times you can take, schoo…
-
@Chardiggity said: @Amrina96k A cancel will show up on your record, so it will still show as 3 attempts. So in that regard a cancel won't necessarily help you. 4 takes isn't ideal, but it's also not excessive. Schools only have to take that sw…

@lsatgodjk said: Hi, all. I'm barely scraping a 154 (138 cold diag), and after choking on the exam yesterday, I've decided to delay a year and take the July exam. My typical breakdown is as follows: LG: -4 LR: -10 LR: -10 RC: -13,…

@Alex said: So much of games is banking time so you have enough to finish the last game(s). Have you tried recording yourself taking a section? Where are you spending your time? That’s the first thing you want to figure out. A few tips th…

@redshift said: As for LR, I'll just say this much. Improvement on LR isn't going to come from reading another book again. It's going to come from doing a lot of practice questions, and thoroughly reviewing why right answers are correct and wr…

@redshift said: LG is easier to improve than LR. If you're only finishing three games on time, then on the actual test, you'll likely get all the questions on the fourth game wrong, and a handful of the questions on games 1-3 wrong. The k…

@MissChanandler said: I see that you have the starter 7sage course. Have you gone all the way through the CC? Watching/absorbing all the videos? I don't think that re-reading books with various approaches is really going to be helpful for a la…

Thankyou so much @turnercm I can try the skipping method, my only concern is that i won't have enough time to come back to the skipped questions because i never have any time left at the end. In terms of BR, I get -8 to -11 wrong when I'm doing …

@lorenposs Thank you so much for all that! I practiced a lot of timed LR sections before the November Lsat, i did different LR sections over and over again, and BR the questions I got wrong. However, unlike you unfortunately, i wasn't able to get …

@keets993 Thank you so much for replying to my comment! So on my previous timed practice tests score breakdown was about the same in all three sections. It was -14 on RC(always my worst section), -7 & -12 on both LR sections, and -13 on LG. Whil…

@diontret Thank you so much for all that! I am currently working my way through the CC. I have completed several timed practice tests already while preparing for my first lsat, but I would definitely like to get through many more for my second test.…

Hi, I apologize for not mentioning enough details. So by increasing 10 points I'm talking about 150 to a 160. I was scoring around 150 during my pts, ended up with a 149 on my test in September. My score seemed to be stuck around the 150 range, 148…
