@sweetalison007 said: To put it bluntly, my UG scores are below average - the LSAC will probably have a seizure looking at my transcripts. My transcripts will most likely have a ''Below Average'' evaluation. I am from India - which has gr…

@"Jonathan Wang" I'd love to know your opinion on this! You're my LSAT god so I would take your word as gospel in this case!

@navilsat said: Hey everyone, I have just started to add RC into my prep. So far I have drilled about 4 RC sections without keeping a strict time clock (i.e., I give myself about 8-11 mins on each passage) and I typically get -1 to 0 on e…

@theLSATgrind2017 said: I think the best piece of advice I have is that you should shoot for a score, not a date. And I think many people here would reiterate that. Yea, it is discouraging to not meet that Fall 2017/2018 deadline, but wouldn't…

@september said: @"Alex Divine" I've read the Manhattan. I will be more careful while doing my review of explanations. That sounds like a good plan to me. Also, return to the CC as well. JY's approach is pretty similar to MLSAT. I just tend …

@september said: @"Alex Divine" I am missing around -5/-4 per section, and I will only be doing sections I have already taken before. So there is no worry about wasting fresh PTs. I will add this to the main body to avoid confusion. Oh ok...…

@september said: 7Sage shows that LR from 60s is on average easier than from the 40s - 50s. The 40s to 50s seem to be have 5 star difficulty sections, but I know that the 60s have trickier questions despite their lower difficulty. I am trying …

@USER123456 said: What I did was compile everything on day 1. I didn't feel like having to worry about printing it later. There is no print all option, but you can merge various prints before physically printing anything. Now there's an idea…

I also use the Goose Neck : https://www.amazon.com/BESTEK-Holder-Gooseneck-iPhone-Phones/dp/B00JK70KUY It works great with my iPhone and yes, absolutely keep on airplane mode. I've messed up a section due to a call due to not having it on AP mode.

Has anyone on here used just PTs 52-61 and 62-71 and scored above a 170? If so, what was your study plan and diagnostic? I'm just curious how many people actually do this. My only issue would be not exposing yourself to enough logic games....
-
@dan_reynolds said: I only suggest making your application the best you can. While Alex is correct, scoring a 170 your first time is better than retaking, if you score a 170 and you application sucks you aren't getting into H,Y or S... no mat…

@"Madeline L." said: Hi all! I want to start by saying thank you for welcoming me into this great 7Sage community. I just took the June LSAT, and after consistently PTing in the mid-160s in the weeks before the test, I scored a 161. I have…

Yeah, even with the ABA rule, depending on how much free time I have I will probably still do a bit of some day trading or something finance related on the side.

@dfletch5 said: @"Alex Divine" I see your point. Students may become complacent and delay truly understanding a concept because they feel there'll be more opportunities to get it right. That's a valid point and one I did not consider. Sti…

No, I just print them as I need them. It is more helpful I find for organization purposes.

@username said: @"Alex Divine" It may not help you, but applying ED could. And having multiple scores in a world where law schools now only have to report the top score of applicants, it doesn't hurt. If you looked more closely at Mylsn, you'd…

Move it to whenever you are scoring what you would like to consistently on your test. There is absolutely no way to even estimate where you'll be score wise in a month or 6 months. I learned that the hard way as many other have. Sometimes we run int…

@"vanessa fisher" said: @goingfor99th @apublicdisplay @"Alex Divine" Thanks for your thoughts on this. I tend to agree that the later tests are different. If not objectively "harder", which I realize is hard to measure, to me their is …

@dantlee14 said: I agree with pretty much everyone in this thread. While you should make an effort to do every LG the LSAT has released and you have access to, I almost completely ignored anything before PT50 when it came to LR and RC. Not onl…

@dfletch5 said: @"Alex Divine" @"Paul Pederson" I see your point, Alex. It's possible we feel that we need the older tests for the fundamentals when in fact the newer tests can establish fundamentals as well. I think we'll have to do the study…

@username said: Take them both if you think you can get a workable score in Sept. and that it won't be too emotionally taxing if you do poorly. Use that score to apply ED to your dream school and then update your applications with your, hopefu…

Sounds like your score indicates that you need to return and learn the fundamentals. At a 143 you're missing nearly half the questions. I would go back and re-start the entire CC, take notes, do the drills, and make sure you understand the main conc…
