Following! I've been noticing that i often have huge gaps between my regular and BR score. Recently its been as high as 13 pts, its reassuring to know that I have the potential to reach those scores, but frustrating and discouraging that i'm not /:
Personally, I found this didn’t help at all.
I always knew what section was fake. I half-assed it. Wasted a PT.
IMO if you start your BR right after your test, like start with reading comp, it wont be an issue on the day of your test. This was wha…
Omg ok so I was having the EXACT same problem as you
I was also BRing in the 170s and stuck in mid/high 150s
I did the exact same thing as you in the LR
I think you should go back to old sections before doing new sections (they are like “new” tes…
I brought mine with me since it was my ticket back home, all 4 times I wrote. After all, I need to Uber back home since the tests are administered in the middle of nowhereland. I just asked the supervisors to hold on to it for me. They were ok with …
Honestly, I feel like my motivation is more of a "compulsion" at this point. I find I have a hard time taking legitimate breaks. Like i HAVE to study.
I find the LSAT material very very dry and had a really hard time keeping my focus
I find taking…
Wow. I am SO sorry that had to happen! That sounds like the absolute LSAT nightmare
What I think:
1) Assess your timing - is it really under time constraints that you are scoring 170?
2) Are you nervous? I feel like this was due to nerves
3) Wh…
Hi!
Similar LSAT score here: 156, out of school for 1yr+ (not identical but sitll) and also Canadian
I am going to be honest, I dont think a strong LOR will make a difference. Unless its the dean or something.
Make sure you really beef up your r…
Do you think you can cover an RC section? I have been trying to get my score up for 7 months, and seem to be hitting -10 to -15 (depends on how bad the passages are). Nothing seems to really help me
Go where you want to practice! Why are you suddenly changing? Like what made you consider Toronto? If its the cost, don’t do it. Go study where you have always wanted! Debt is temporary, the law school experience is forever.
I also believe going fr…
I don’t think you would qualify tbh
People who get accommodations have learning disabilities, not mental disabilities in general (only if it impairs your ability to process information, like dyslexia or verbal processing disorders). Most people wit…
Not necessarily
My uncle went to an Ivy League school, and struggled immensely with the LSAT. It took him 3 years to get in.
In law school, he was at the top of his class. He was recruited by law firms in Boston & was very successful.
Some pe…
I had the same issue with LR
I found I could get ~20 right untimed (only 10 minutes over), but then when i started timing for the first time i got like 5 right (and, mathematically i should have gotten 15). I would go over it and think “well i coul…
I’ve been talking to some friends, and most have experienced a drop of 5-10 points. Some score right where they last PTed. Personally, I was scoring 151 and got a 154 in July. My October test is on hold (looonggg story) so i do not know my score. I …
Hey! I’m going to say no.
I was scoring ~151 in July, and only used 49-52 and 69 to study, I scored 154 (I cancelled tho cause it was a freebie)
When I heard about the horror story of PT 88 logic games, and all my friends telling me how they were …
I dont think this is true
I do not recall seeing any questions from PT 67, let alone a section (I just skimmed through it now) — it is possible that they used a question or two, but changed it very slightly to make the old right answer wrong, becau…
Mine was:
LR, LG, LR, LR, RC
Third LR went the best imo, so knowing me and my luck it’s the fake
LG was nice n easy as expected after the lawsuit
RC was very difficult and I had no idea what the comparatives were about. At least the science one …
Sleep in? I too, am a morning person
I ended up staying up until 2 am the night before the October LSAT, and slept until 11 (felt GREAT). I was too stressed to sleep.
Also, I bring a protein bar with me (I like grenade bars — I highly recommend) a…
This used to kill my score, now it is my best RC passage (not that my RC was so great to begin with... anyways)
What I do is I read passage A, every question pertaining to A, then eliminate wrong AC's based on A (like what was not mentioned etc.), …
Thanks for the suggestions!
Yeah I definitely won’t take the week off, even if I wanted to I couldn’t
I think I’ll take one new PT and maybe one of the ones I already took but a while back
And the hardest questions I can find
I like to have thin…
I feel for you
I also have a LD, and get accomodations
my LD is primarily in RC, and I was going through what you were going through, and was frustrated because it is the hardest section to improve
My LG score was similar to your RC score.
I say…
Slow down
Read it twice
Read it 3 times
Take a minute and reread it again and again
This eats up a minute of your time
but it is so much better to do this than to read it wrong, F* up a whole game, realize midway you did it wrong, freak out, go…
I heard it’s because the older tests were designed differently
I think the old tests are the BEST practice, do all the old games, and you’ll see how easy the newer tests appear
The older games are also known to be harder, but the older RC and LR i…
Hey! I’ve been waiting for your next post haha. My eyes are always peeled.
More trap answers include:
- What people think, feel, believe, wish, want, their intentions, etc.
- Wrong group - like if the stimulus is discussing pink ducks, and the AC…
Its very similar
The font is a bit different, but you can change it
I practice on an iPad with an Apple Pencil, the screen is smaller and i had back pain from leaning over the desk after my exam
I like the stylus they gave me, especially since it…
I scored 149 on my first test in July
I have been working at this 50 hours+ a week since I joined 7Sage
I have only broken through the 160s this month
Even now, I am hovering above 160
You cannot cram the LSAT in. I get it, you’re in an Ivy Leag…
