I am so grateful to be here studying with all of you! I have been on my own since 13. Let's all enjoy the journey we are in right now and not rush to the end. Here's to law school for all of us.
I am manifesting my destiny... I scored a 137 my 1st LSAT, I will master this and score above a 165 - this is the hardest thing I've ever done but anything is possible. Thank you for the motivation Brad - I really needed it...
You're doing incredible, and you have made SO much progress! You have all of us on 7sage behind you, so keep it up and believe in yourself as much as we believe in you!
i looked him up- bro was in the military in an elite ranger regiment, went to dartmouth- an ivy league school with a 3.48 (which is relatively low for harvard, but i wouldn’t really say it’s low) and was both homeless and is an urm. that’s like, t 2 softs (homelessness and elite military) and not an exceptionally low lsat or gpa. compare this to like, an avg kjd splitter who has like a 3.5 and a 172, i don’t think that splitter would get into harvard unless they are similarly cracked lmao
@iammichaelscott pointing out that he is an exceptional case and that it wasn't only his merits that got him in (ivy league, decent gpa, and high lsat), but also his unique background of serving and military. Commenter was saying that someone who has a bit better stats than Brad wouldn't necessarily get in because Brad's unique background "justifies" a bit of a dip in his grades.
Another tip I saw online was from this LSAT youtuber:
The way she learned was by simulating test conditions, which included down to what she would eat and drink on the day of the test. When I get around to doing practice tests, this is what I'm planning on doing! I hope this video helps anyone else who may have not come across this video :)
Theres a difference between dreams and realistic dreams. It's awesome that he got into Harvard, but a mid 160 result is prefectly fine to get into most law schools.
It's unhealthy to think that not achieving a T14 score is a failure. Manage expectations.
I get where you're coming from but there is also a difference between thinking your score is a failure and thinking that you could've done better. I don't think anyone who scores a 169 would feel like a failure but I could see why they would be tempted to retake it with the aim of scoring a 170 or more.
This video helped me so much with getting into the right mindset as I re-start studying for my second official LSAT. I hit a major wall after getting my score back almost 10 points below what I was anticipating, but know that I am capable of doing better on this test. After deciding to re-learn the fundamentals as if I had not taken the course before, I am already feeling like I am on a better track for the August exam than I was after studying 9 months for the April exam. For anyone reading this comment and going through this course the first time, the fundamentals really are essential for mastering your LR and inherently your RC on this exam. Without them, you will be lost at level 3 difficulty or higher questions because you will not fully understand how to analyze the convoluted logic that is being given to you for analyzation. Thank you for the inspiration!
I'm in a similar place. I rushed ahead thinking it would be fine but now I am having to go back to review fundamentals. Still, I'm glad I'm doing it now rather than later down the line.

@NicoleGutierrez8234 Me too! This was super encouraging! Thanks Brad!
In God's name I will get a 170+! amen
This was the hopecore i needed.
I will score a 170+ and finally prove to myself that I can reproduce the results that I've been seeing in my practice on the real test!!
Take aways: When You can articulate why the other answer choices are not good answers, then that takes you to the next level.
With the will of Jesus Christ, I scored a 178 in November!
I will not rest until I get a 170+
I WILL GET A 170+ RAHHHHHHHHHHHH

@JerryTianleChen Thank you for this context!
@JerryTianleChen Are you trying to undercut his success or something? Or make yourself feel better? What's the point of this comment?

@iammichaelscott I'll give u a hint, think of it in terms of necessity and sufficiency 😜 maybe that'll help your lsat too

Thats apart of the human nature of always wanting to do better.
I'm saying this to myself right now: In two months' time, I will defeat this test, and it will be under my feet.
honestly i needed to say this to myself too, thank you
