The interface is mostly similar to 7Sage, but the flag is in a different spot and the buttons are slightly different. Like 7Sage's feature, you are able to hide the timer during the official test. Highly recommend taking a PT on LawHub to get used …

I agree with your instinct to hold off on taking the April LSAT if your current PT scores aren't in your target range. The deadline to cancel with a full refund for April is still available, although only a few days away. The June LSAT registration…

Like others have said, retaking sounds like it'd be in your best interest. If scholarships $ is a consideration, scoring even just a few points higher will put you in a better position for those offers. Good luck on the rest of your LSAT journey!

I will preface this by saying that you should grow comfortable with all question types - knowing what they're asking and how to solve them - and advice on your question will vary depending on where you're at in your LSAT journey and your overall goa…

I agree with the above comment. If you're PTing in the 140s, it's a sign that there are fundamentals that you need to improvement upon. Here are some recommendations: - focus on UNTIMED drilling of easier to medium rated questions -shift to timed…

Conclusion indicators can be useful, but (as a warning) they can also be used to trap you with a wrong AC, particularly on more difficult MC questions. It's important to practice understanding arguments, especially since finding the conclusion in ar…

Focus on foundations and accuracy untimed. Move to timed drilling once your accuracy increases. It's difficult to give more specific advice without knowing your current study habits. Have you considered canceling your April LSAT registration? There…

I don't recommend canceling. 3 points is well within standard score variance.

Yes! Blind review allows you to review questions without time constraints of the test. When you flag questions to review during the test, BR is the time to check your answers without knowing the correct answers yet. It can also help you gauge whethe…
-
The above comment addressed this well. I'll add that going through all practice sets in the core curriculum might not be necessary for you. There are a ton of practice sets which become time consuming, especially if you're drilling in addition to th…

It is possible that the experimental sections you've taken happen to be easier in the sense that they contain less four or five-star questions. The analytics page is helpful for determining whether the overall section is considered medium difficult,…
-
Like many of the comments said, a mixture of overthinking and luck. Even when you get 4's and 5's right, review ANY part of the question that you feel unsure about. It's completely possible that you lucked out (especially if you were 50-50 between A…

I agree with the above comment - if you have enough PTs, take one to see where you're at. Also, it's important to reflect on your previous study habits. Ask yourself what worked well prior to June testing. What didn't? Build in a solid routine based…

Do you know how your time fans out across questions in a section? Look at the time analytics of questions and try to narrow down the amount of time you spend on the (generally) easier questions (1-15 ish) while maintaining accuracy. This will allow …

LR question types are so intertwined, so you absolutely need to be able to identify the main conclusion of an argument for virtually all LR q types. Even if you're able to skim by not understanding the main conclusion for other question types at eas…

I gave advice on a similar post that I'll drop here: Short answer is that I (mostly) completed CC before drilling and PTing, but did not finish all CC practice sets. My longer explanation is that there are A LOT of CC sets imo, and it takes time t…
-
Biggest difference I've noticed is the wording in the passage or question - nothing that will make or break your understanding. Don't worry too much, because the main fundamentals and skills are tested either way. I recommend saving modern tests a b…

Great advice! It's not talked about enough in LSAT prep communities, but try to take breaks before you even reach the point of burnout. So easy to get caught up in the grind of LSAT and law school admissions. I recommend building in one day per week…
-
Like a previous comment states, it's unlikely for a difficult numbers-based question to appear more than once or twice within a section (or even the entire test). If you know that this is a weakness, skip the question, focus on getting all the other…
-
Customize the question difficulty for drills to 1- and 2-star questions only. This will allow you to practice and master the fundamentals of each question type before moving on to more difficult questions.
-
Agree with the comment above. Also want to say that experimental questions are just as useful for studying and absolutely lessons you can take away from them.
-
It's harder to give specific advice without information on where you are / had been scoring. If you're in the 150s (or even low 160s) or below, absolutely review the core curriculum. Make sure you understand each question type / what it's asking and…

I agree with a lot of these comments to not cancel, as it raises more questions. Plus, if your next score is 10+ higher than the first one, it at least signals that you're dedicated.
-
You'd need to note in your file that you'll submit a newer LSAT score; they'll put your app on hold until it's submitted (i.e. schools will see your updated score if this is the route you take, so you don't need to hope that they see it). You can w…

@PercyRECS02 said: Risk/score aside, is my chance of admission significantly lower? I've been studying and doing PTs all year for the upcoming cycle. I also did my first attempt way back in June for the last logic games since I studied for it.…
-
Hey! I definitely understand your concern, especially since everyone emphasizes that LSAT PTs/questions are a scarce resource (and it's true!). Short answer is that I did not complete all sets for each question type, but I did complete the CC befor…

You can take the PTs on Law Hub and manually input your selected AC on 7Sage afterwards. This is available using the "convert" button on the digital tester. The downside is that you'll miss out on 7Sage's time analytics (i.e. how long it took you to…

You can explain, but focus on the facts of the situation rather than trying to justify your grade.
-
I kind of agree with the above comment. It's a bit risky applying with only one shot at the LSAT. Submit now if you're 100% confident that you'll be fine spending $$ on apps without knowing your only score. The benefit is that it speeds up the proce…
