Hello everyone i'm new to this forum.

I didnt take the June LSAT bc my practice score was only 155-159. I need to get 165 or better to have a shot at tier 1 school. I'm willing to do another prep course, but what i really need is a short cut to help me score better. I read slow and I am horrible at standardized exams. I'm willing to take the risk and cheat if someone can tell me know. I know that people have ways of cheating on the GMAt and MCAT, so I need to know if there is any "assistance" I can get for the LSAT. If I cant cheat then I need a recommended course of action.

As you can see if am an average exam scorer. I have an undergrad in business and spanish. My main problem is reading comprehension and the logics game. I laugh when I say that because thats pretty much the whole exam.
So, if I cant score in the 160s them i'll just do an MBA.

Thanks.

This is my opinion, but do what you want. Cheating is now way to start out in this game. Especially advertising it on the internet. If it helps any, I use to read slow, and still do most times. As far as teh exams, if you practice enough you will get use to the question types and your speed of reading will increase as well. Its just an experience factor. A group of test takers for the bar exam tried to cheat a few years back and almost got away with it. In the end they all got in trouble and now of them became lawyers, after all the work and expense of law school. What are you going to do when bar exam time comes around? Just put the work in, don't cheat, you will make it like the rest of us. Very few of us were gifted, most of us had to work, so work.

LK311, I understand and agree with your reply, but i'm sure people are cheating as it seems strange that there are more and more 170+ scores out there. It used to be rare and now its common. It no longer a level playing field.

If I knew what they were doing I would do it to. The problem is that I am not cheating and i'm locked into my average score which wont get me where I want to go.

So, besides "studying harder" I need someone to point me into a direction to get an "edge"

Your profile says you are an attorney. Where did you go to LS? What do you practice? Did you graduate from a T1 LS?

It's amazing the measures some people will take to gain a little "edge" on the LSAT. Isn't it better to spend the time wasted on trying to "cheat" on studying more practice questions? Not to mention the great risk of getting caught.

The LSAT is as cheat proof as any test can get. I just don't think the risk / reward is worth all that effort. If you get caught cheating, you'll NEVER be a lawyer.

Besides, even if you successfully cheat, what kind of lawyer would a cheater make? Definitely not the kind we want in the profession.

I wanted to respond to this tread and show that people often cheat on exams but they also usually get caught. And if you dont get caught cheating on the exam and make it into law school how are you going to complete with students that are generally smarter than you?

If you got into Harvard but graduated at the bottom of your class....what good is that?

Even though there are few ways to cheat on the LSAT, the risk of getting expelled from school and prohibited from taking the bar are far too great of risks. If you cant into the law school of your choice then you may want to reconsider schools or law school in general.

GMAT Cheating. To counter an ever-increasing wave of exam fraud, the GMAT will soon use new technology prevention. Biometric fingerprinting and digital surveillance cameras will become commonplace. Normal MBA candidates need not worry on this score.
