I am very scared because the exam that’s closest is an hour away and parking is really bad. If I have multi day and pause time accommodations is it possible that LSAT will allow me to take it remote because it may be disturbing to others.

Drilling lr is digestible to me; you get answer wrong you, you find out why you chose wrong answer, identify the issues with your reasoning and drill some more on that question type. HOW do you do this for reading comp? Sure blind review blah blah blah but it’s so difficult to isolate my problem areas. Sometimes I’m just like jeez, that was a hard passage.

Does anyone have any tips on how to effectively get better at rc other than “just do more passages”😭

As of right now, I doing 7Sage with their lesson plan.

What other material do you recommend to use? Thanks

Hello! I’m planning on taking my first LSAT in September and I was wondering if they still offer the accommodation to remove the experimental section

I’ve had severe ADHD my whole life and my neurologist is helping get the papers I need to apply for 100% extended time. While I need every second of those 90 mins, I feel like I will be exhausted after 4 sections of that and I was wondering if there was a way to get the experimental section removed.

I heard that people have requested to have it removed but I don’t see the option for that accommodation on any of the forms or online. Did they stop allowing that? Or is it something you need to request separately?

Thanks!!

I’m currently working as a paralegal full time and studying for the LSAT. This has been such a stressful period of my life and it is difficult to balance both, especially because I am not at my target score for the August exam I’m registered for. I guess this is just an appreciation post to all the others who are going through the same thing. 💔 Any advice on multitasking, time management, or just tips in general are appreciated. Or words of comfort 😭

I made an optimized LSAT error log to help with studying. Pretty simple project since I am still pretty new, but I thought I would share regardless!

It features a section where you can add your prep test score, along with a graph that shows you your scores over time to see how you are improving, along with smaller analytics like score increases and average score.

The actual Error Log section has a few features. I made a file uploader for people who already have previous logs made that can take CSVs and automatically fill out the errors in the file you provide. Error logs that are uploaded with missing information will be saved as drafts where you can fill in any missing information. Analytics include error frequency based on level, question type and section.

I have been thinking about transforming this into a website where people can make personal accounts. It would also include threads under individual questions where people can discuss them.

I have no idea how I would start with that, but anyway, this is my first creation with Claude. I know there is supposed to be no AI, but this isn't used for information; it was just used to create a helpful program. Hope you guys like it!

For the last 2-3 weeks, I've been scoring LR sections in the range of -7 to -4, but when I take prep tests, I seem to score anywhere from -5 to -2. On 7sage, it shows that my section LSAT score equivalent is around 156 or 157, but my last 2 preptests have scored higher than that (158 and 161). in my last 2 prep tests, the sections I took would score above my average section score while drilling.

I feel like I’m hitting a roadblock at this score range and am experiencing a whole range of negative emotion about it. But isn’t this just good enough? I think seeing some of the posts on this sub has made me a bit delusional. Thank you.

I've been consistently getting scores in the mid-160s on my PTs recently. Yesterday, I took PT144 and I got a 156 (BR 170). I'm so confused and I don't know what happened, especially because I didn't feel too bad while taking it. Should I be worried about this or is this drop just a weird anomaly? Obviously, I'll find out on my next PT, but if anyone has gone through something similar, I'd love to know if it was just a bad day or indicative of a bigger issue. Does anyone know if PT144 is a harder test for some reason? Idk lol. Any advice would help!

They have like an official page and deadlines to opt out. Wondering if anyone here has or knows anyone who has opted out, and if so, why?

Okay I started studying in March of this year, my first diagnostic was a 164, and then after learning the very basics and drilling a ton of questions I was averaging a 172 on my preptests (would occasionally score a 169 and got a 177 once). I took the June lsat with the goal of at least 170s, ideally 175+. I got a 168, so I registered for the August lsat (could have done September but for many reasons I don't feel like explaining I decided I just needed to get it together by August.)

I decided my new strat for studying this month would be to build a really strong foundation, so I bought the Loophole, studied and am at the point of doing untimed advanced translation drills. For these, I have so far used 3 sections that I've already taken but have very little memory of.

My scores of the sections before (when I took them timed):

1. First section: -6

2. Second section: -5

3. Third section: -5

My scores during the untimed advanced translation drills:

1. First section: -5

2. Second section: -1

3. Third section: -5

So aside from the second section I essentially have not improved and it feels worse to me because this is timed vs. untimed. I say all this to say, SOMEBODY PLEASE GIVE ME ADVICE! HELP! PLEASE! HELP! TIME IS DWINDLING AND I HAVEN'T EVEN STARTED TIMED PRACTICES AGAIN

I’m gonna quit my job to study but can I still work 2 days a week?
Or completely quit?

How do you answer a question when there is no right answer?

This is about question PT123.S2.Q16. Feel free to follow along

The right answer is stated as D. However, Sandra holds the opinion that mathematically precise claims are not inherently suspect on the basis of their precision, but answer D doesn't make this distinction. Answer D says "mathematically precise results that are not inherently suspect." Period. Not "not inherently suspect on the basis of their precision, but not inherently suspect period. We do not know that Sandra holds the opinion that mathematically precise claims are not inherently suspect AT ALL. Sandra might hold the opinion that these claims are not suspect on the basis of their precision, but rather their method for example. Sandra might hold the opinion that all science is unreliable because she doesn't trust the method. Sandra's statement could be followed with "instead, they should be doubted because all science is ridiculous and only magic 8 balls can or should be trusted to obtain any answer ever."

The passage then doesn't give support for Sandra's opinion on the right answer ... so how do you answer a question that has no right answers?

When I first walked through this, I was mad. How unfair! This LSAT point is just chance! This was close minded of me, really its an opportunity to further set yourself apart from other test takers. Instead, this is like a difficulty 6/5 question -> how to find the best answer when there is no right answer

A -> referencing the 61 percent is far too specific, Sandra would have to reference that specifically in order to have an opinion.

B -> same as A. Plus, Taylor might believe it is possible to determine this via some other method that isn't science, maybe if it was revealed to them in a dream.

C -> again, the study of verbal and nonverbal communication as an area is far too specific to presume ones opinion

E -> claims being false is never mentioned by either

Our solution is actually to dumb the answer choices down, and see whether a SHALLOWER understanding of them leads to agreement. After all, Sandra and Taylor are just average humans, not future lawyers and LSAT whizzes like you and me. Maybe they only understood each other at a more realistic, conversational level.

A -> research might reveal a very specific result

B -> it is possible to determine a very specific result

C -> science is an area where one cannot expect great precision

D -> some science can yield results that are not inherently suspect just because they're precise (this is difficult to dumb down too much without losing important elements of the answer choice though)

E -> If inherently suspect claims are usually false, then so are scientists (difficult to dumb down)

So whats wrong with these?

A -> Taylor says no, but we don't know what Sandra thinks. Obtaining a precise result IS NOT revealing a precise fact

B -> Same objection from before with regards to Taylor applies.

C -> Taylor would agree, but Sandra might not. We don't know if science is one of those areas where precision is commonplace. Many scientific disciplines may obtain precise results, but maybe the majority don't, so we can't expect it there.

D -> starts to work now!

E -> we are STILL not talking about being true or false in the statements, just acquiring precise results. This doesn't work

So D is the BEST answer, because its the LEAST WRONG (even though it is still wrong)

IMPORTANT: This kind of scenario does not occur often. Pretty much every time it happens I make an angry rant like this, and I have maybe 3-4 after having done all the preptests in circulation. But its always important to keep in mind that you're looking for the BEST answer, not the RIGHT answer. It is much more frequently that MANY answer choices strengthen, or weaken, etc etc. But only one strengthens/weakens/etc the MOST.

Best of luck studying! Homestretch incoming

I was so worried because I didn’t know registration would determine scheduling time so I ended up getting 8pm est (eek) but I got a testing center 30 mins away and there were multiple time slots available 😮‍💨 The added stress of scheduling is soooooo uncool but this was a relief to get done!

No matter how many drills I do, im consistently getting about 9 wrong on RC and its driving me insane.

Im just hoping I can learn to ace my LR sections so that my score doesn't take too big of a hit. The inference questions are just so brutal, no matter how closely I think im reading I never get them right...

I want to know everyone's thoughts on the LSAT trainer by Mike kim page 309. Not sure if this is a mistake and if it's been fixed if so, but I'm having trouble wrapping my head around #9 of this problem. In the answer key, it says the 9th choice is provable but I don't believe it is.

This is a drill to practice most vs some. The reason I don't believe it's provable is because there's no way of saying whether every food item is written on that board or not, not just specials.

Hope this makes sense and sorry if it's been already fixed.

Are we missing logic games or do we feel better off without it? In my opinion, it’s less to study.

CAN you guys provide me with few negation techniques in LR? I suck badly at it, it'll be really helpful for me if you guys do that. I'd be grateful, I'm not preparing for LSAT but a similar one which has LR so if you guys are experienced just dm me Or Comment on this post regarding negation techniques in LR.

Tbh I lose my marks because of LR so my accuracy isn't improving so please try to help me Or suggest me a better way even starting with basics again also I'll be okay, but yeah help me please

Whoever saw this post I hope you have a nice day💕

I’m looking for an LSAT testing software that matches the actual LSAT. Including the formatting, font, highlighting, answer choices, navigation, timer, and overall screen layout. What software provides the most realistic testing experience? I know LawHub has official questions, but I want a program that matches the real test interface.

Hey everyone,

I recently applied for CAS but I've run into an issue regarding transcripts. I was able to request a transcript from my undergraduate school but the processing of that transcript is currently on hold due to LSAC reading that I did not add "my other undergrad" to CAS. I don't have another undergrad but what I think they are seeing is credits that I earned in high school while taking a class that allowed us to gain college credits for that class. Since I never actually attended that school, how do I go about this? I've emailed LSAC but haven't been able to reach anyone on the phone yet but I just wanted to see if anyone else ever had this issue?

I’m roughly a year out from my desired test date. Took a diagnostic and got a 146. I’ve started with the loophole. I’m halfway through. I’ve been reading about 3 chapters a day. I am drilling constantly. I took an untimed PT a few days ago and got a 152 after about 3 weeks of moderate studying. Certain concepts I’m able to regurgitate the vocabulary verbatim but everything im studying feels ridiculously challenging to apply to any questions that are above medium difficulty. I’m starting to feel discouraged tbh. I’m ≈ 3.5 weeks into my studies. For all of the 165+ official scorers out there, how long did it take for things to click? Or is there no such thing as an aha moment with this exam? If you did get to that moment, what helped you get there?

Hello,

I recently graduated from UC Berkeley with a 3.86 (PoliSci degree). But I transferred there from a community college. I messed up on some classes at my CC, and even tho it doesn't reflect on the CC's GPA, LSAC counts it anyway. So, my Cumulative GPA is now a 3.63, whilst my Degree (Summary) GPA is a 3.88. I wanted to shoot for the T14s, especially HYS. Be honest, am I cooked :/

(Registered to take August and September LSAT)

Hello! I work full time (about 45-50 hours a week) and things are finally settling down at my job, so I plan to hunker down and study for the LSAT these next couple of months. I am familiar with the exam as I studied for it a few years back before I ended up joining corporate and working full time. I would like to apply for Fall 2027 and know that priority/early decision deadlines for most schools is November whereas regular deadline is early 2027. With that being said, would it be best to study for 2 months and take the October LSAT so I can apply for priority/ED, or would it be better to study an extra month and take the November LSAT but only be able to meet the regular deadline?

For context, I graduated summa cum laude with a 4.0 GPA from UCLA and have about 5 years of full-time work experience in HR.

Hello! I am entering my freshman year this fall and was wondering: how can I get ahead? Where can I get started for LSAT prep?

Not sure if this is the best place to ask this question, but any help would be appreciated!

For context: I am currently 18 and graduated from high school this May. Due to external circumstances, it looks like I'll have to apply straight out of grad school (KJD?). I hope to have started studying fully by sophomore and I plan on taking the LSAT in April of my junior year. By senior year, I hope to have submitted most of my apps by Novemeber/December.

I have tried to intake as much information as I could, but I am still unsure about how exactly I can start. There are four full practice tests available for free; should I start with one now? I'm hesitant because if I do really badly, I'd essentially be wasting a full practice test. Do most students studying purchase LawHub Adv to get more? And what about 7Sage? The questions themselves are rudimentary, and perhaps it's too much in one post, but I want to know more about the starting point. I will be a first-gen graduate from the U.S., and I feel underprepared and quite lost. If you could provide your own timeline/story, advice, or even the specific challenges you faced, it would be greatly appreciated.

I have been studying for this test for months and I just got my lowest score yet on a section (-12). Every time I take one I've seen my score either stay the same or go down marginally and have yet to see any improvement.
