I’m looking to hear from other people studying for the LSAT to see if you’ve experienced the same thing.

I’ve always been an excellent student (my GPA from undergrad is a 4.2), but ever since I graduated college three years ago, I feel like social media and doomscrolling have permanently fried my brain.

I’ve gone from reading the classics and super dense texts with relative ease to forgetting what I just read almost immediately. I have to read the stimulus at least three times to begin to understand it.

I’ve cut back on my social media time, read The Loophole, try and get back into reading, but I still can’t get past this brain fog. I feel like I can’t understand the simplest of sentences and choose incorrect ACs all the time because I am misreading them. This problem is killing my score.

Have you had a similar experience? Any tips that have helped you combat this?

Thank you!

I just got my LSAT score today: a disappointing 155.

I had technical issues that affected my performance, but I also know I could do better and improve my score.

I’m interested in applying to schools in the GTA (where I live) and my dream is to become an immigration lawyer.

I’m seriously considering retaking the LSAT as I feel my current score is not competitive.

I wanted to share my stats and see if anyone could offer some advice. I genuinely appreciate everyone’s time and insights!

GPA: 4.23/4.3 (BA with Double Honours)

LSAT: 155

Softs: I speak five languages (including French), volunteered at a refugee clinic as a translator, have been working in immigration and settlement services since 2021 (currently an immigration program officer with a government department)

Thank you!!!! 😊

Not a drill.

See you all in August.
