Test day doesn't always go as planned. From tech problems to tricky logic games, unexpected challenges during an official LSAT attempt can be intimidating for many students. But the best-prepared test takers don't hide from their fears—they plan for them. Also on this week's pod, Ben and Nathan discuss why retaking is almost always the correct decision, how students can learn from their mistakes, and what low-GPA applicants can do to bolster their applications. LSAT Demon LSAT Demon iOS App LSAT Demon Daily Watch Episode 428 on YouTube Thinking LSAT YouTube LSAT Demon YouTube 1:45 - October LSAT Scores - Nathan and Ben applaud LSAT Demon students' successes on the October LSAT. The guys encourage anyone who was disappointed with their score to retake. 11:09 - Test Anxiety - Ben and Nathan describe a powerful technique for dealing with test anxiety: anticipate test-day challenges, and plan how you'll respond. 16:14 - Learning from Mistakes - The goal of review is to learn from your mistakes so that you don't repeat them. The guys suggest some review questions to ask yourself to help accomplish this goal. 25:26 - “Lived Experience” Essays - Some law schools are now inviting applicants to write “lived experience” essays in place of traditional diversity statements. 30:42 - Low GPA - Nathan and Ben answer a series of listener questions about applying with a low GPA. The guys advise restraint in GPA addendums, and they remind listeners that nothing atones for a low GPA like a high LSAT score.

LSAT Demon student Robert scored 176 on the October LSAT, but his practice tests indicate that he could score even higher. Should he retake? Read more on our website!Email daily@lsatdemon.com with questions or comments.Watch this episode on YouTube.

With the conclusion of the year's second-to-last LSAT (and the first four-day administration ever), Dave and Jon are finally in the clear to discuss all the details. Tune in as they deconstruct a record-breaking number of scored sections—including both domestic and international exams—and provide scaling predictions for all 62 possible combinations, as well as updates to their latest Crystal Ball forecasts for November!

Law school admissions is a competitive game, and schools are wary to admit applicants that are likely to enroll elsewhere. This week, Ben and Nathan examine a tactic that some admission offices may use to gauge an applicants' interest in their law schools. Later, the guys share some tips for overcoming test day anxiety, they evaluate a strategy for the closing minutes of timed sections, and they dig into the Flaw question type in Logical Reasoning. LSAT Demon LSAT Demon iOS App LSAT Demon Daily Watch Episode 422 on YouTube Thinking LSAT YouTube LSAT Demon YouTube 0:58 - Updating a Personal Statement - Why would a law school invite you to rewrite your personal statement? Nathan and Ben suspect that they're gauging your interest in their school. The guys remind listeners that lawyers never shy away from extra work if it helps to make their case. 34:48 - Test Day Anxiety - Ben and Nathan share some tips on how to mitigate test day anxiety. 41:41 - Question Timing - LSAT Demon student Lucy suggests a new feature that would show students how much time they spent on each question of a timed section. Nathan and Ben are open to the idea but doubt that such a feature would be as helpful as Lucy thinks. 44:30 - Last Five Minutes - Listener Hanna sees value in another prep company's “five-minute plan” for when time is running low. Ben and Nathan don't want a five-minute plan to distract Hanna from her 35-minute plan. 52:11 - Apply Now or After October? - An anonymous listener considers withdrawing from the October LSAT to apply earlier in the cycle. Nathan and Ben offer an alternative: apply next cycle with a better LSAT score. 1:00:38 - Flaw Questions - Ben and Nathan break down two of the most common phrasings for answer choices on Flaw questions. 1:13:51 - Plug and Chug - Nathan and Ben discuss why solving Logic Games is never a either-or decision between opposing methods. Everyone will discover their own best approach, which is often a blend of worlds and “plug and chug.” 1:18:48 - Personal Statement Topic - Ben and Nathan encourage an anonymous listener to focus their personal statement on career successes rather than an early-career layoff. 1:22:32 - Scholarship Estimator - Nathan and Ben explain some of the methodology behind the LSAT Demon Scholarship Estimator.

Listener Emily isn't ready to take the October LSAT, but she doesn't want to withdraw and lose one of her free attempts as an LSAC fee waiver recipient.

With the deadline to register for the October LSAT only days away, Nathan and Ben share some advice to students who are on the fence about registering. Simply put, your recent practice test scores will tell you whether you're ready to take the test. The guys also consider what a “reasonable” price for law school would be, discuss how best to negotiate law school scholarships, and uncover a pearl of wisdom regarding Main Point questions in RC. LSAT Demon LSAT Demon iOS App LSAT Demon Daily Watch Episode 417 on YouTube Thinking LSAT YouTube LSAT Demon YouTube 2:20 - October LSAT Registration - Nathan and Ben counsel LSAT Demon student Nafosat on whether she's ready to register for the October LSAT. 7:25 - U. Chicago Settlement - Ben and Nathan comment on a recent Reuters article about alleged price fixing by elite U.S. colleges and universities. The guys remind applicants that law schools are in it for the money. 14:24 - Don't Pay for Prestige - An anonymous listener asks whether it's reasonable to pay $40k annual tuition to attend an elite law school. Nathan and Ben discourage listeners from paying for “prestige.” 20:18 - Negotiating Scholarships - Listener Perrin asks how to negotiate law school scholarships. Ben and Nathan recommend applying broadly to discover your value in the marketplace, then using better offers as bargaining chips. LSAT Demon Daily, Ep. 163: How to Negotiate Law School Scholarships 24:51 - Saving Practice Tests - Ben and Nathan assure students that there's no need to save newer practice tests for later. 25:32 - Pearls vs. Turds - LSAT Demon team member Elizabeth suggests a fun way to judge Main Point answer choices in Reading Comprehension. 28:51 - Personal Statement Topic - “I'm boring,” laments an anonymous LSAT Demon student struggling to pick a personal statement topic. Nathan and Ben encourage Anonymous to write about a work experience that showcases their work ethic and problem-solving skills. 32:22 - Focus on Accuracy - Listener Mason feels discouraged because he's still scoring -10 in Logical Reasoning. Ben and Nathan instruct Mason to slow down and focus on accuracy. 35:43 - Test Limit Exemptions - When requesting an exception to LSAC's limits on repeating the LSAT, it's not enough to cite “underperformance” on official tests. Nathan and Ben consider the sorts of extenuating circumstances that might qualify for an exemption from the five-test limit.

LSAT Demon teacher and former student Marissa Varnado joins Demon teacher Francesca to share her LSAT success story. Marissa overcame score plateaus and disappointment on her first official test to score 173 on the October LSAT.

Ben and Nathan celebrate Demon students' successes on the October LSAT—and encourage more students to retake the test. When every point matters, it pays to get greedy. Also on the show, the guys advise a law enforcement officer on his study habits, counsel a student who faces tremendous parental pressure to apply this cycle, and evaluate a full-ride scholarship offer with an early deadline to commit. LSAT Demon LSAT Demon iOS App LSAT Demon Daily Watch Episode 376 on YouTube Thinking LSAT YouTube LSAT Demon YouTube 4:03 - A 22-Point Improvement - A year after his 151 diagnostic, Demon student Arman scored 173 on the October LSAT. Ben and Nathan encourage him to get greedy and retake. 7:03 - A 24-Point Improvement - Demon student Alex raised his score from 139 to 163 in four months with the Demon. The guys think Alex should shoot even higher. 10:28 - From Law Enforcement to Law School - Demon student Jared plans a midlife career shift from law enforcement to lawyering. But he finds the LSAT to be a stiff challenge. Nathan and Ben explain why his progress will depend on his willingness to slow down and get the easy questions right. 15:47 - Parental Pressure - Demon student Connor faces familial pressure to apply to law school as soon as possible.

The October LSAT was not only the biggest test of 2022 enrollment-wise, it also included the most scored section combinations, and some of the toughest LG and RC content, that we've seen all year! But as always, Jon and Dave are here to cut through the confusion, clarifying what was real, the standout moments of difficulty, and, above all, how it all fit together to produce a surprisingly-wide range of scoring scales.

Most law schools have begun accepting applications for fall 2023 admission. Nathan and Ben predict when the first scholarship offers of the cycle will come in (hint: soon) and double down on their advice to apply in September with your best LSAT score—or wait until next year. The guys also help a student trying to break out of a Logical Reasoning slump, consider an accounting student's possible career paths, and advise listeners to attack arguments on the LSAT. Finally, they debut the “GLAD” guide to law school admissions. LSAT Demon LSAT Demon iOS App LSAT Demon Daily Watch Episode 366 on YouTube Thinking LSAT YouTube LSAT Demon YouTube 3:21 - No More Room Scans? - A judge in Ohio decided that room scans before remote-proctored exams are unconstitutional. Does this decision mean the end of ProctorU room scans on the LSAT? Not so fast, Ben and Nathan say. 6:04 - Law School Rankings Game - Listener “Unbound” shares information on Penn State Law's binding early-decision program. Nathan and Ben uncover some wild scholarship statistics. 19:51 - Escaping an LR Slump - LSAT Demon student Alondra frets over falling Logical Reasoning scores and asks how to get back on track. The guys encourage Alondra to forget about her section scores and to focus on the specific questions she gets wrong. 25:13 - Excuses Are Boring - An anonymous Demon student asks whether their decision to graduate early warrants writing a GPA addendum. Ben and Nathan remind listeners to stick to the facts and to avoid making uncompelling excuses for low grades. 31:02 - Litigate the LSAT - After a month of study, an LSAT Demon student worries she may lack the imagination needed to grasp conditional logic. Nathan and Ben prescribe patience, practice, and precision. Attack arguments on the LSAT as a litigator would in cross-examination. 42:54 - Apply Early - Ben and Nathan contest an admissions consultant's claim that there's no benefit to applying in early September. The guys then guess when they'll see the first scholarship offers of the cycle. 50:17 - Law or Accounting? - Accounting firms want to pay for Demon student James to attend a Masters of Accountancy program. Should he put off law school to pursue this opportunity? The guys encourage James to decide where his career interests lie, then commit to that one path. 59:35 - RC Strategies - Listener Connor struggles with Reading Comprehension in spite of—or perhaps because of—trying several different strategies to improve. Nathan and Ben advise him to forget “strategy” and to focus on understanding one sentence at a time. 1:06:26 - GLAD Guide to Admissions - An anonymous Demon student received an early rejection letter even though they requested that their application be evaluated after the October LSAT. Ben and Nathan advise Anonymous to withdraw remaining applications and to follow their GLAD guide to law school admissions.

The October LSAT was an absolute roller coaster, with system outages preventing thousands from testing on Saturday morning, extra testing days added for affected students, and endless confusion over scored and unscored sections. Fortunately Dave and Jon were along for the ride and in Episode 95 they cover it all: the rocky start, LSAC's concessions, what was real and what was experimental, and above all the predicted scoring scales for all the various section combinations!

October LSAT has been put online. I hope you love this episode where Maranda takes charge once again. Please like, subscribe, and share this podcast. Thank you for listening!!!!!!!

LSAC finally announced that the October LSAT will indeed be an LSAT-Flex, which should come as no surprise to Thinking LSAT listeners.

October is here and the guys are getting pumped up for their return to the city that never sleeps. And they’re not the only ones who are getting jazzed. It looks like this will be the biggest Thinking LSAT Live Class yet. But we’re still a week away, so the guys channel their LSAT energy to answer your questions and to bring you the hottest headlines from the wacky world of LSAT. Ben and Nathan talk about how to shift your thinking around LR and RC questions, they uncover evidence of paper tests being offered for the October LSAT, they consider some advice overheard at the September LSAT, they look at how one disgraced law school is goosing their Bar-passage rates, and more.

The LSAT is a lot like bowling. You send a ball down the lane, you knock some pins down, you refine your technique, you try again. Eventually, you get a strike and a few spares under your belt and before you know it, you’re the head of your local bowling league, scheduling games and enforcing the league rules. Ben and Nathan each recount some special experiences, some new and some old, about life in the bowling lane. Then the Thinking LSAT duo gets down to business. The guys read through an announcement from LSAC about the October LSAT, they weigh in on a test strategy from a listener, they help a correspondent decide whether to apply early or wait for a better score, and they slice and dice a law-school hopeful’s personal statement. Plus, learn about the upcoming Thinking LSAT live class in NYC, and hear a happy tale of Thinking LSAT friendship straight out of Harvard law. Read more on our website!

The October LSAT scores are out. Should you retake the LSAT? And what's the first thing you should do when you get your actual results back? Paul asks if it's possible to go from a LSAT score of 146 to 170. Vincent shares his experience after taking our advice to stop reading the Logical Reasoning question stem first. Did his practice scores improve? Dylan wants help answering abstract questions (e.g. flaw, method of reasoning), and shares his strategy for taking simulated practice tests at the actual LSAT start-time of 8:30 a.m. A listener asks what suggestions we have for continuing to study when waiting for test results. She also asks about a strategy for disclosing speeding tickets on the law school application, and whether those traffic violations will hurt her chances of admission. Thinking LSAT is now on Twitter!

Ann Levine, Law School Expert, talks about whether law school early decision programs are worth exploring. She also addresses whether law schools can see if you've applied to multiple schools via early decision. Joe shares an October LSAT test-day horror story that involved the use of an analog watch during the test. He asks advice on how to address the situation with LSAC. Listener Kayle talks about an offer she received from a law school in Alabama that included a waiver of her application fee and a $30 iTunes gift card in exchange for her application to the school. She asks if other law schools are engaging in these offers. After scoring in the mid-teens on Logic Games, Steve asks for help and suggestions for additional Logic Games study materials. One listener doesn't feel confident about his most recent score with respect to Reading Comprehension. He already took the LSAT once and scored a 162. He asks if he should take the December LSAT, and what are the implications of taking the LSAT for a third time. He also asks about the option of cancelling his score and if we have suggestions for additional comparative reading materials. Thinking LSAT is now on Twitter!

This student's practice LSAT score is stuck in the mid 140s, despite the fact she has been studying for quite some time using several different prep materials. She wants to reach the 150s. Should she take the October LSAT or wait until December? This student has been studying consistently for the LSAT and scoring in the mid 160s. But as the October test approaches, his score is slipping down to the 150s. What should he do? Jack asks how he can improve his speed completing Logic Games. Should students worry about the LSAT writing sample? (Listen to Episode 34 for more information on the writing sample.) Are law school early decision programs worth pursuing? Nathan will be living part time in Los Angeles, and is now accepting appointments for private LSAT tutoring in Southern California. You can book an appointment online for in-person or Skype tutoring sessions. We also tackle Logic Games question 1 (Section 1) from the June 2007 LSAT. Take a listen and let us know what you think.

In this week’s podcast, we answer the following LSAT questions and whether to select a law school based on bar exam passage rates: Mike asks how to address “uncommon word usages" on the LSAT. For example, the word "obtain" appears frequently. What other words should LSAT test-takers look for? Matt is taking the October LSAT. He slowed down his approach to answering Logical Reasoning questions, which has significantly improved his accuracy. When should he increase his speed to answer more questions while still maintaining accuracy? Nathan's student was admitted to Golden Gate University School of Law (46% bar passage rate) and University of La Verne College of Law (67% bar passage rate). Should he select a law school based on bar exam passage rates or the cost of tuition? Bram just started studying for the LSAT. He asks about a strategy for answering different sections, recommendations for a LSAT class in Atlanta, and whether he should break Logic Games questions into "sub-games" or "worlds."

In this week’s podcast, we answer the following questions about retaking the LSAT: Dylan has a 3.5 GPA and scored a 163 on the LSAT, yet he got as high as 167 on practice tests. Should he apply to law school early through rolling admission, or retake the LSAT in hopes of a higher score? Lauren scored a 170 on the June LSAT. She is considering retaking the test in October because she scored as high as 174 on practice tests, but doesn't want to burn herself out. Should she retake the LSAT? Andre scored a 155 on his first attempt at the LSAT. After taking a prep course and doing numerous practice rounds, his practice scores ranged from 161-169. Yet when Andre retook the LSAT, he only got a 157. Why did his score decrease and what should he do before retaking the LSAT? Beth is taking the October LSAT. She's working full time and can't afford a prep class. After using the Princeton Review and Kaplan LSAT test prep books, Beth was so stressed about timing that she neglected to work on study techniques. As a result, her score went down. What LSAT study strategy do we recommend for Beth? Take a listen and let us know what you think. And don’t forget to sign up for our email newsletter.
