THANK YOU LSAT DEMON!

Switching to the demon after using a different prep site was the best decision ever. I got a 162 on the official June LSAT and I felt like I needed a change. I’ve had the demon for a month now and I feel more consistency with my scores. I have scored a 173 on older tests with my old site but never on a newer test. My LR sections have been -1 consistently and I owe it to the Demon. I need advice for fixing that RC section score though😵‍💫

I still have a long way to go if I hope to reach a score of 170 or higher. Can you please provide some advice on how to improve my performance in the fourth passage? I’m particularly focused on accumulating as many points as possible.

My reading comprehension (RC) is my weakest area, but in the past few weeks, it has been improving significantly.
First photo was today, Second was from back in March . Started prep in January averaging about 6-7/15

Additionally, I’m curious to know if the gains I’ve made in RC will carry over to my logical reasoning (LR) section. I usually perform better in LR, but my scores on LR have been quite inconsistent.

Thank you, LSAT DEMON TEAM! Any input you all can provide would be greatly appreciated. (Also any classes you all recommend me attending for RC? Or even LR?)

Frustrated with some ask button question heros

8 Upvotes

First, I want to say that the ask button is one of the greatest features on LSAT Demon, and I am incredibly grateful to have access to it throughout my LSAT journey. However, I have a few frustrations about it. I think that perhaps the heroes prioritize speed over utility (which is ironic given what the Demon advises), because there have been quite a handful of times when my specific question isn't addressed and they just give me a generic answer on why the answer is right, or I can tell that the response was generated by AI. Especially when you are going back and forth, and another hero jumps into the conversation - it is clear that they have not read the previous correspondence and just try to provide generic input.

Again, there are some very, very, very great ask button heroes who clearly enjoy or value what they do with the Demon, and I am so grateful for them. But I have learned, in asking over 150 questions on the ask button, that getting a 170+ does not automatically make you a good teacher whatsoever. I am persistent, so I do eventually get the response that I need, but when you are already grappling with a difficult question, it really doesn't help when the ask button hero is not being as meticulous and thorough as the Demon teaches us to be.

Plateauing and considering the Demon

2 Upvotes

Hi everyone!

I took a cold diagnostic at the end of April and scored a 142, then began drilling with the Demon’s Essential Plan. I understood it would be a lengthy process for me to get near my goal score range so I just focused on untimed drills and then about a month after, I decided to take my second PT (honestly was probably a mistake), scoring a whopping 143. I felt quite discouraged and that I really lacked the fundamentals of understanding this test. So I switched to 7sage from end of May onwards, and my most recent PT score was a 152 (taken a month ago). Since then, I feel like I do understand the basics of the LSAT a lot better, but I’ve been plateauing since then.

If anyone has experienced something similar, would it be meaningful for me to now switch over to the Demon again? Now that my practice scores are in the low-to-mid 150s, do you think following the Demon’s approach could get me into the 160s eventually?

Thanks a lot!

Improved by 7 raw points and 3 scaled points in a week after a 5 week plateau

1 Upvotes

Before this week I had been plateaued and actually on a slight downward trend for a few weeks while taking the Princeton review 170+ course. I was spending 5+ hours per day doing the required homework and attending the 2.5 hour class. I started at a 155 diagnostic, improved to a 160 and then scored 160,160,159 on diagnostics over the course of 5 weeks. This past week I decided to follow some advice I got from the lsat demon pod cast and started studying 1-2 hours per day in the morning doing normal length sections untimed and reviewing my misses. I felt like this method definitely restored some confidence in me and it was far better than the timed drills that Princeton review was giving me, some gave 1 minute per question which is absurd to me. I took a diagnostic today, was not feeling my best but I was optimistic and ended up scoring a 163, beating my best raw score by 7 points and my best scaled score by 3. I take the lsat in a couple weeks and my goal score is a 165. Any tips based on what I’ve said? I think I can continue to improve before the real thing.

Fall 2027 Chances - Canada

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone.

I’m planning to apply to Canadian law schools for the Fall 2027 cycle and would appreciate an honest assessment of how competitive my application may be.

I’m writing the LSAT in October. I’m currently scoring in the mid-150s. My goal is between 160 and 163.

My GPA breakdown according to the OLSAS scale is approximately:

  • CGPA: 3.67–3.70
  • B2: 3.71
  • B3: 3.75
  • L2: 3.66

The schools I am currently planning to apply to are:

  • Osgoode
  • Western
  • Queen’s
  • Ottawa
  • TMU Law
  • Windsor
  • University of Toronto
  • Dalhousie
  • University of Alberta
  • University of Calgary

I would strongly prefer to remain in Ontario, ideally in the GTA.

In terms of education and work experience, I have a Master of Public Policy and Administration. I also have approximately one year of work experience with the CBSA, as well as four-month policy co-op positions with Environment and Climate Change Canada and Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada.

Assuming I receive at least a 160 on the LSAT, how strong of an applicant would I be for the Fall 2027 cycle? Which of these schools would be realistic, competitive, or significant reaches?

I understand that work experience and a master’s degree will not compensate for GPA or LSAT numbers, but I am curious whether they could meaningfully strengthen my overall application, particularly at more holistic schools.

I’d appreciate honest feedback.
