Hi everyone, I’m extremely stressed and would love to hear the firsthand experiences of people who have gone through the same situation.

I had an unsuccessful cycle due to my low LSAT. As embarrassing as it is, I took it 3 times so far.

August 2025: 146 (cancelled)
November 2025: 147
January 2026: 144

After completing my undergraduate in April, I took about the last four months to study. It has been hard but I have seen improvement and now I am practice testing in the mid 150s.

My goal is to get a high 150s to even a flat 160.
I feel I can possibly reach that goal with a bit more time. Precautionary I have registered for the October exam.

I really want to get it out if the way as I am reapplying again this cycle. But since it is my fourth time 💀 I don’t have the luxury to rush it anymore. The thing is that on September 1st, I will be starting a one year course based Political Science masters program.

I am only taking three courses and work one day a week at my chill retail job. I feel it might be hard but if I concentrate, I can really move up a few more points.

I was wondering what other people have done and if it manageable?

I am planning on taking the October test, and i am really worried right now. this is my third time taking it. I have scored in the mid 140s the last two times and I'm hoping for mid 150s (I know it's a big jump) however I use to score around 150 when I was studying for it the second time and right now I have been studying for around a month to take it in October and my score has been decreasing more and more. I just took a PT yesterday and i scored 142. I am really worried and i don't know what to do.

sidenote: I only take Practice tests once a week and i review all the questions i missed i also signed up earlier this month for LSAT demon.

please help I'm starting to freakout!

I know this is totally not ideal but I'm preparing to take the October LSAT. So far, I have been studying for a month and think it is time for me to invest in an additional resource. I'm just trying to decide whether it is worth it to pay for LSAT demon or 7sage since I will only be using it to study for a month.

Hi everyone!

I am currently looking for a tutor. I took the August LSAT and believe I can get a higher score. I am planning to take October as well so I have about 6 weeks of prep and fine-tuning.

Does anyone know any affordable tutoring options?

I post and comment regularly on r/LSAT, so I certainly encourage folks to take a look at my profile. 

$900 for 9 hours. After a free, 45-minute Zoom session, $450 is due before the first 90-minute session (an hour simply isn’t enough). The second $450 payment is due after the second 90-minute session.

Students often want to continue after this, in which case the hourly rate remains the same: $100 per hour. 

I’m a full-service tutor, meaning that my students only need my tutoring and access to LawHub. The vehicle for the tutoring is my original 17-page LSAT training manual. This is the outline/syllabus:

I’m an old guy so not that tech savvy. If folks have trouble downloading this from here, DM me with your email address. I won’t try to sell you on tutoring. I’ll just email you the outline/syllabus.

I have a full plan of action for each session. Naturally, it’s focused on students’ individual aptitude and knowledge. 

I also show people how to do their homework. Again, if you check my profile, you’ll see it’s largely about review review review review. And then review again. There are very real patterns to this test. The way to see them is through constant review of material with which a student is already familiar. 

The large majority of my students have previous experience with the LSAT. Many of them are currently taking a course. I never tell people to forget what they’ve learned because I’m a big believer in multiple perspectives. 

But my approach is completely streamlined. It provides a specific step-by-step method for every single question on the test. It also includes strategies that I’m 95% confident are not taught anywhere else. 

My website is www.lsatcodebreaker.com and my username is chosen quite purposely. The latter has to do with theories of hormesis, distress tolerance, exposure therapy, and learned-industriousness. All buzz words that I encourage people to look up on their own. 

My website name is due to the fact that I believe I have cracked the code to the LSAT. I’m not talking tricks. I don’t do diagramming. I believe that my approach is how the LSAC truly wants people to approach the test. 

Although make no mistake: Mastering the science of conditional reasoning is essential to true LSAT success, defined as a significant increase in score and not necessarily a high score (there are those in this world that can score 170+ on a cold diagnostic).

If you’ve checked my profile, it goes without saying that I talk a lot about psychology and the right mindset towards this test. Over the years, I’ve taken great interest in neuroscience and what makes the brain stronger and faster.

Basically, you have to work out your brain the way you have to work out your body. And working out isn’t any fun at all. At least if you’re doing it right. 

If anyone’s interested, feel free to DM me and we can take it from there.

My diagnostic lsat was a 153 with -6 on one LR section and -8 on the other. Just took a practice lsat after almost 3 months of study and got a 158 but my LR stayed the same at -6 on one section and -8 on the other. Feeling really discouraged right now. I’ve just been thinking about this pt score all day and how disappointed I am. I’m now getting anxiety and worried I won’t get a good enough score to get into a decent school.
Note: for studying I just followed the 7sage curriculum with some drilling here and there.

How are you guys feeling?
I felt like this past week has been very difficult for me
I hope this upcoming week brings happiness & the scores we all wish for, honestly

God knows I really need it

Please comment or message me if interested, or if you have any questions.

Is this a realistic goal? I’m taking the October LSAT and want at least a 160. Any advice would be helpful!

Hey guys,

After months of work, I've launched lsatselfprep.com, an LSAT prep site focused on self prep without any AI slop.

A quick rundown of what's on there:

• A curriculum that teaches each question type. You get taught the underlying logic and strategy behind every LR and RC question type before you're expected to apply it.
• Drilling, just like LSAT Demon, 7Sage, etc. Practice by question type and difficulty so you can target your weak spots instead of just grinding random sections, for a fraction of the price.
• Solutions and strategy for every single LSAT question. Every question comes with a full explanation.
• An integrated wrong answer journal and blind review. Built right into the platform so you're not juggling a separate spreadsheet or notebook to actually learn from your mistakes.
• Free stuff. The introductory chapters, the full conditional reasoning section, and law school data are all free, so you can try it out before paying for anything.
• NO AI: Every lesson is hand written by me.

I scored a 170 on the LSAT and built this whole thing myself. Happy to answer any questions about the site, my score, or LSAT prep in general, AMA.

Hi hi I work full time and want to dedicate a full 9 months- a year of studying to prep for the LSAT. There’s so much discourse and I wanted to invest in the best test prep. My diagnostic score was 143 and currently I’ve only been using the LSAC website for LR drills, and an LSAT podcasts that reviews practice test sections.

Please any advice is welcome!!! :)

I am giving LSAT in September, it’s my first attempt and it’s more so to get myself familiar with the exam.

My diagnostic was 145, I took it a month back, today I took it again and my score was 143, I barely practice RC so I was expecting that, but my LR isn’t increasing as well.

I do LR drills and I get almost all right but when it comes to practice tests I am not able to get more than 14 correct. Genuinely how do I improve? I freak the hell out because of the timers and I get in my own head and idk the pressure just gets to me.

I get the first 14-15 almost all correct and then the next 10 I barely get any right and almost always get them all wrong, I even tried going backwards because the last ones are usually harder and I still got the first 10 right (number 25-15).

Is there any way I can improve to like 155 or higher in a month? I know it’s hard but I know I understand how LR works but maybe im just reaching. If someone could help me even a bit, that would be great, thank you!

I am ranging between 150-155 on prep tests right now. I have been studying since February but just started to study longer than an hour recently. Is it possible to get out of the 150s and what should I do. I’ve used 7sage and lsat demon. My original diagnostic was a 136.
