Very grateful for my cycle and results. I cannot recommend enough retaking the lsat even when you don’t want to, and studying differently if you weren’t thrilled with your initial results. If it is possible for you to work w someone 1:1, do it. LG was my biggest struggle (would’ve probably had a much easier time if…

Admitted to New York University…may not have had during my senior year of college. For the LSAT, I found that consistency was key. I treated my studying like a non-negotiable commitment but also made sure I wasn’t burning myself out and took one day off per week. I took it twice and went from a 171–>172 (lol). After the second try, I decided to…
…maintained my innocence which in a lot of cases can hurt). LSAT 171 Diagnostic->178 after a month or so of studying. Was pting 180 pretty regularly but during the actual test, the proctor interrupted for about 1.5-2 minutes during RC because my camera slipped and covered my forehead. Decided to not retake, as 178 is…
LSAT: Give yourself more time than you think you need to study. If you can swing it, a tutor or course is a great investment into your future because just a few LSAT points can mean a huge difference in where you are accepted and/or scholarship amounts. (I used 7Sage and PowerScore.) If you think you left points on…
…Rs were because of my C&F. Stats matter, work hard at the LSAT. I had a 168 diagnostic with most of my misses on LG and studied with 7sage for a total of 2 months and scored a 174, 180. My goal was to get into YLS(middle finger) hence the retake, but I think this could have led to some YP at some schools. Write good…
Biographical: HYP undergrad. BigLaw paralegal for 3 years. White, LGBTQ+ Re: the LSAT - took it only once, July 2020 Flex. Had a diagnostic of 160, self-studied up to a 168. I used my COVID stimulus check to pay for a tutor starting in late March 2020. Studied for about nine months total.
…save money!!! This is very expensive. Could have taken the LSAT in August. Felt super pressured to take it in May and only got to study a few weeks for it. I didn’t get through the last game and wouldn’t be surprised if the questions I missed were all from the games section.
…out a way to package it nicely into a two page essay. LSAT: I have to say getting this score was God’s doing. Didn’t do anything to deserve it, but Jesus had grace and listened to my begging<3 Practically though, set expectations low and expect the studying to take time. Some people get their score in six months.…
LSAT: Took it twice (both Flex): 171 (August) -> 180 (November). Used a combination of PowerScore Bible trilogy and 7Sage for PTing/blind reviewing/videos. I think that overstudying and burnout is definitely a thing – I took 6-7 weeks off and barely studied between my first and second take, and I think that actually…
Take as much time as you need for the LSAT, start very early or reapply if you can/need to, and have faith in yourself! Only take the LSAT once you are getting practice scores that you would be happy with as official scores!!!!! ««< Good luck! **Harvard Interview: ** I am one of the few people who got rejected from…
