Some older games are super hard, and they still employ the same principles (plus, you only have one page so you get better at being efficient with space). I’d suggest buying an old prep test book, go through that one now, and then 3-4 weeks before J…
Blind review your mistakes in LR. Where are you going wrong? (For me, it was always, “Oh yeah, I missed that one thing.”) identify things you can work on. Drill those things (question types, tricky answer Constructions) answer in the question bank.

Saying you want to work in NJ/NY/PA is still pretty broad to me. I think if you want to work in NYC, going to Cardozo is an advantage. If you want to work at a firm in Philly, I’m sure Temple would position you just fine. The thing is, if you’re at …
In 7Sage’s webinars (which don’t get the hype they deserve) there is one called “Weaken/Strengthen” by Nicole Hopkins. She breaks these question types down pretty much mathematically. It transformed my approach to these questions. You gotta see it.

I don't think there's any specific thing you can do. You just have to build up your LG instincts which comes over time. Ultimately, even if it isn't so easily categorized as Grouping, In/Out, sequencing, it's going to have those ideas in there some…
Its great to put you write poetry on your resume, or write a personal statement about performing poetry, but a poem for a personal statement doesn’t match the needs of the writing situation. You could possibly have an excerpt of a poem in the statem…
None of my business but unless my family was going to pay for law school I would tell them it’s none of their business when I go, be it this year or next year. I think it’s absurd to push a 23 year old into a permanent, life changing decision, one t…
Don’t do any timed sections a week before the test. Do drills, but don’t time yourself. If you’re like me, you’re going to put a lot of pressure on yourself and try to get your best score ever, but that will only make you do worse, because of the st…

It's Monday morning post-LSAT and I am lost with what to do with my time since I am not studying. Anyone feeling the same weird way? Lol
Gosh yes!…
I thought it was easier than June and July. June’s RC destroyed me. I thought this one was a very typical LSAT. It’s also totally possible that I was just more prepared for this one after 8 months of studying. But it also seemed easier than the Sept…

Do they release the test itself before our scores? Or do we just have to wait three weeks?
Pretty sure it all comes at once. You’ll get PDFs of the test, your bubble sheet, your writing sample, all in your LSAC account.
For me the easiest questions that I would never skip are the explicitly stated ones (Which one of the following does the author not mention?). It’s right there in the text and takes seconds to find. Easy points. I actually don’t skip questions in RC…

I tried a new RC strategy today, and skipped the comparative passage. I figured that if there wasn't a lot of time when I got back to it, I could read at least one of the two sections real quick and have a chance at the que…
At first when I left the test, I was like, “Man, that LR was easy as hell. I killed that shit.” Then I saw people saying it’s hard on here and on Reddit. Now I’m like, “Man, did I go for a bunch of trap answer choices? Oh no! No law school for me, i…
BR is key, because that truly tests your understanding. You can also drill question types with the question bank. Keep in mind that you shouldn’t do this with tests you haven’t taken. You’ll be spoiling your ability to see fresh questions for PTs. T…
Everyone bombed that game. I guessed (educatedly... perhaps, but prob got them wrong) on a couple. (I highly recommend the LSAT subreddit and see the posts about that game....hilarious). I wouldn’t cancel once, let alone twice. Tbh, i think it shows…
It is such a shame that we prepare for months, study so hard, devote our lives to this, and then there’s some joker who comes in from god knows where, who has no respect or understanding for what this is about, who treats it like a joke. My proctor,…
Things that I’m proud of:
After I bombed the first section (the experimental LG), I picked myself up and marched through the RC (as opposed to feeling sorry for myself and being emotionally destroyed...been there too).
When the proctor was playing…
Don’t sweat it, man. Very few people leave an LSAT feeling good. It’s such a whirlwind. I’ve been obsessing since over whether or not I bubbled correctly. This was your first test, right? I think it’s a shocking experience with the lines and the hor…
It's been awhile since I did this question, but I also remember being furious at it because I weighed two answer choices it for a bit and decided it wasn't close enough for a twin to be looking at a twin. I don't remember what I did choose though...

As someone who's been doing 30's-50's, this has me really worried. Is there that big of a difference between the former and 70-80's?
Are you doing the ones in the 50s with comparative reading passages? If so, practice those…
Well, those phrasings are very common to flaw questions. They shouldn’t be hard to find. If you’ve done a lot of the PTs already, a good idea is to drill these questions in the question bank. You can select to see only flaw questions, then choose th…
