Hello,

Can anyone provide me feedback on my DS? I am also willing to do a timely exchange with you!

Thank you :)

Hey everyone,

Has anyone recently had an interview at UChicago, and if so, do you have any tips for what kinds of questions to prepare for? I have seen previous lists of interview questions, but they all appeared to be from several years ago, so I was wondering if anyone had more recent info. Thanks!

So I took the November LSAT for the first time and scored a 159. I had been studying part time after work and on the weekends since mid June, so I probably put in a solid 3-4 months of study for about 8-10 hours a week. I was scoring 161-163 in practice tests and feel that I could still improve. I feel like I'm under too much pressure to apply this cycle but am worried about waiting another year due to my age.

Been working full time the last 4 years in project management in commercial construction.

Does anyone have any thoughts or have been in a similar situation?

Does anyone know how long it takes for an ID and password to be emailed to me by a school after completing my applications. I just completed them so I am not expecting them ASAP, but I was curious as to how long this takes so I can check the status of my application. Thanks!

Do I have to include my canceled lsat on my application? Or do I only have to include my scored LSAT.

Is anyone else applying for Harvard's JDP who wants to be in a groupchat?

I've been awarded the scholarship (all three years) for a local school, which is great! However, I am still waiting on the rest of my applications which are pending. Am I required to answer the email? I think if I did answer, it would be a lame "this is great news, but I don't know if I will be attending your school" response. Also, I am concerned that if I don't answer somehow the offer will be off the table in a month's time (yet, the deposit is due in April, FAFSA February), but I think this is just anxiety talking more than anything. Anyone care to enlighten me, please?

Thank you, all! I was able to achieve my goal score thanks to the content here and this awesome community, so keep working if you are still in the LSAT process! Best of luck.

Hello 7sagers!

I will be hosting two of my favorite classmates at Northwestern, Rachel Corella and Jordan Gerlach. We will be talking about targeting T-14 schools without a score in 170's. We will also be happy to share our experience as 1L's at Northwestern, but we will not taking any specific LSAT questions.

I am really honored and excited to have them speak to all of you.

Hi! I submitted my applications but I'm planning on retaking the LSAT in January. I would like to be considered with my current score to take advantage of having an earlier application. Do schools look at it negatively when you ask them to review your current score? I'm worried that my target/safety schools will see it as a sign that I'm prioritizing other schools and I'm not sure what to say in the email.

hey everyone, i had a question about writing an addendum in regards to your lsat score.

if you have a score that is 90th percentile or above, but you do not meet the median for the school to which you are applying (for example if you are applying to it as a reach school) is it acceptable to write an addendum? or would that seem like you are just making up a reason for not meeting their median?

thank you :)

Not sure if this is a thing on these forums, but is anyone interested in swapping personal statements for feedback? I'm looking for general feedback plus a quick check for typos and am happy to do the same for someone else.

I have a question about my LSAT score. I have some bad previous scores on the record, which is 1/13/2020 146—>May 2020 150—>October 2020 154—> November 2020 172. I have a huge increase from October to November which makes me worried that will law school admissions will think my November score is suspicious? My October test has tech issues and was interrupted by Proctor U during the exam but I didn’t cancel because at least it will better than 150, which is my May score. Usually my PT range is around 165. In November, I think I did very well and questions are all standard. Is it enough just add an Addendum to explain this situation? Or do I need to retake in January to prove that my score is not just an accident, but I think it might be late to apply and lost scholarship opportunities. I will be very appreciated if you reply! Thank you so much !

Can any International student, share his/her experience of going through WES evaluation. I have heard stories of WES dropping down the CGPA by a great margin. I have got 82 percent in my undergraduation, any guess on what would the GPA look like on 4.0 scale?

How do you find out when a decision had been made for your application? Like do you have to keep checking your application status or will they email you/send a letter?

Hello! Could someone provide me some feedback on my PS draft? I am having difficulty figuring out if the structure is focused and makes sense...

I recently changed the focus of my PS, so I would really appreciate your help.

I am also willing to do a timely exchange!

Thanks everyone !

I’m looking for someone to read my diversity statement before I finish my applications next week! I’ll take a look at any of your statements and give you feedback as well. Feel free to message me!

I would highly appreciate it if someone was willing to read my personal statement and give feedback. I'm kind of lost as to what exactly I should focus on.

I'm thinking about making a discord server or something. Maybe we can review each other's essays, talk about how to strengthen resume's and target schools. Let me know!

Question1:

I have interned for 2 Republican state senators. I am applying to schools in more democratic areas. Should I include the names of the senators that I worked for?

Question 2:

I took classes that I think could make me look more diversified. Such as Gay and Lesbian Politics, Women and Politics, and Urban Politics. Should I include these?

Question 3:

One of my internships was part of a competitive university program. I have listed the name of the program as the title for my internship on my résumé. Should I also explain what the the program is? Or should I just list the duties involved?

And help would be great!

Just got november score back. Did well enough to the point where I'm at the LSAT median of my goal school. If I apply ED right now while scheduled to take the January test, will my app be bumped back/hurt?

Hi all, for those of you who used this tool and have gone through an application cycle, how have your percentages contested with your outcome? For example, did you see more acceptance from schools where your chances were over 50%, or more rejections where your chances were below 50%?

P.S. Please feel free to share cases when they did not match. I'm also interested in how your softs must have played out.

Thanks!

Hi all,

Canadian LSAT taker here.

So my first LSAT score wasn't really ideal (154) and I'm hoping that with the help of 7Sage this time I can get a better score. My question is, do you see any harm in applying this cycle given the fact that the application deadline for my top choice is on Dec 2nd? Even if I get a good score, do I even have a chance or is it too late since admission offers are sent out on a rolling basis?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks ❤️

Northeastern states that your personal statement should be no longer than 2 pages and that your optional statement should be no more than 1. My personal statement is currently 2 and a half pages and my optional statement is one page and a few lines on to a second page. Will it look bad for me to not follow the directions and submit these, or will admissions people not care?
