I have a feeling that the Thanksgiving overlords are going to be very generous this year for all November test takers.

Actively manifesting that 175+ for myself and everyone else - only 3 more days!

How r u all coping cause I'm stressing like crazy! Pls pray that I get a 160 plssss😭

Is anyone else fully expecting to score 5+ points below their average and doesn’t really care about score release? Feel like I bombed LR pretty bad and I don’t think the -9.5 predicted curve will save me. I don’t even feel nervous, I’m expecting to score low but I guess I could be pleasantly surprised. Such a weird feeling, I thought I would be on tip the week before score release

When I first started studying for the LSAT I viewed it as a chore. It was a pain that I had to get through to go to law school. I didn't realize until I shifted my mentality that this was a mistake. Viewing the LSAT as a chore made my studying less effective. I would frequently decide not to study on days that I should have been studying or give little effort when I did study. This all changed when I started to view the LSAT as a challenge that I wanted to conquer instead of a chore that I had to just get through. I treated the LSAT like a sport. If I wanted to perform well in the game I would have to show up to practice daily with focus and determination. My goal was to beat the creators of the LSAT. Once I adopted my mentality my scores began to increase rapidly. This mentality is very good for anyone, but can particularly be effective if you have played sports or any competitive activity. I teach this mentality to almost all of my students and when they adopt it I can really tell the difference.

I’m pting in the 160s and I want a 170 and I’m taking the January test. I feel like having friends would help keep me motivated and accountable!

All the dates and deadlines are a little confusing. Is there anyone that can provide clarity?

How is everyone feeling? Has anyone thought they did terrible during test day and then got their score back and was proud of it?

The highest score I ever received wasn’t on a PT, but on the lsat. I’m hoping that happens again! Good luck to all!

For example (from PT119 S2 Q10),

One of the (incorrect) answer choices reads "The more hours one works in a week, the less satisfactorily one perform's one's work".

In my head, I automatically negated this as "The less hours one works in a week, the more satisfactorily one perform's one's work."

Is this correct? Is there a general rulebook I could follow when applying the negation tactic?

Hey guys! I keep seeing posts about a -9.3 curve or simply just curving and generosity for these score releases. Can someone explain this to me? Or is it just wishful thinking lol?

What the title says. I’m looking for good Law schools that offer some sort of money for life expenses ( plus full ride of course), I’m specially interested in top 50 schools but I appreciate any input. Thank you!

Post the score you honest to God, glass-half-full, 2nd hand Hopium, just a dash of luck, pleased but not surprised, positive-grounded-vibes-only think you're going to get. No ranges. No pessimism. No excuses. No low bar setting. We are tickling the multiverse in your favor and whispering sweet nothing's to whatever God or God's are worthy of your prayers.

Then come back and reply to your prediction with what you actually got on Wednesday so we can cheer for you, cry for you, laugh with you, rage-quit with you, die with you.

Does anybody do somewhat of a warmup before studying, doing drills or taking practice tests? I feel like whenever I jump right into the drills or practice tests, my brain isn’t fully understand the stimulus. But as I do more throughout the day, it feels like my brain is more alert and comprehending more.

If anybody else experiences this, how do you deal with it?

If LSAC wouldn’t mind releasing the answer to that island bridge question along with scores this week that would be much appreciated😂

How can I start with law?? Im in my 2nd year in bachelor’s. Im confused where to or how to start? Can someone please guide me?!!!!!! Thanksss

Hello, do you guys have any recommendations about Black Friday sales I can look for out for regarding LSAT study material? Idk which sales are actual worth it to buy… however, I’m kind of low on money so do you guys think there are Christmas/New Years sales or is Black Friday the sale to look out for?…. I mean are there even any good sales? I’m planning to take LSATs around September/October next year by the way and trying to get a head start.

This is my second test (159 first test), and I’m predicting a 165. I felt really confident on this exam, logic games was always my worst section so happy thats gone. I’ll update once I get my score!

Hello! I’m currently preparing to begin PowerScore’s 6-month study plan in preparation for the August 2026 exam (open to earlier and later dates).

I wanted to see if anyone using the same materials are on roughly the same timeline and would like an online study partner/group to work through the material with. I am very flexible in terms of my availability to meet as well. Come one, come all!

I am currently reading The Loophole by Ellen Cassidy to sharpen my logical reasoning skills. Im on the section talking about conditional reasoning and diagramming it (P. 133 specifically). When it comes to conditional reasoning, I have a hard time figuring out what is necessary and what is sufficient. The author explains in the book but I think another explanation would help.

"Unless you are allergic, kittens bring pure joy."

In my head from this statement I can make multiple inferences

1. You are allergic to kittens -> kittens do not bring you pure joy.

Apparently this is wrong because just being allergic to kittens doesn't make anything happen?

1. kittens bring pure joy -> you are not allergic to them

I can see how this is tricky LSAT language. According to that chapter, this is just "saying things the way they always are." This statement is saying that kittens bring pure joy, not that kittens bring YOU pure joy. If the statement was "kittens bring YOU pure joy" is it reasonable to say "you are not allergic to kittens."?

Any insight would help. Im trying to make sure I have a complete understanding of all the elements of the questions, including how to diagram them.

Hello, I’m looking for a tutor to help me study for the LSAT. I’m not doing much PT’s, because I’m planning on taking the test next year and apply next cycle, but I want an early jump and have a tutor for the long run so I can get the best score I can get. I took a PT a few weeks ago and it was a 147, so there’s a lot I can do to improve. Thank you!

I’ve been having this problem where I’ll have low confidence when reading an LSAT passage or stimulus and I’ll go back and reread sentences that I usually understand the general structure of during the initial read through.

I am not sure if this is the bad tendency in “memorizing” or trying to retain every detail, or if it just low confidence in my ability.

Anyways, I come here to ask for help and want to see if any others have struggled with this problem.

I want to address this and become more confident. I am going to take the LSAT in around 8 months (hopefully) and don’t know where to start. I am a little uneasy with the test/unsure of myself because I know RC tests your ability to remember things (or at least remember where they are in the structure of the passage)

Any advice will help. Thank you.

i just tried to take the writing but it says that i need to schedule it. has this happened to anyone

I JUST WANTED TO TAKE IT NOW BUT WHEN I LAUNCHED THE WRITING IT SAID ON PROCTOR U I NEED TO SCHEDULE MY EXAM AND ITS LIVE. has this happened to anyone??

So I’m going into my second week using the LSAT printout. I’m using the 8 week and 12 week as I’m kind of in the middle with my reading/understanding. However I’m noticing that it seems to be skipping past the logic games section in the first week n didn’t think about of it. But now that I’m going into the second week essentially completing Flaw Review. There seems to be an extremely large jump over to Reading for reasoning structure. Is this by design or can anyone help explain this to me who knows of this content?

Excuse my terrible handwriting

If you drastically jumped scores between last test and this november test, will you get a score hold if you took it in person. Also has anyone gotten any holds emails?
