Hello! Is T1 absolutely necessary for big law? I live in Texas and I'm considering schools (aside from UT) like SMU and UH. Thanks
Are you in College Station? We (2 of us) are meeting to study later this week.

Should I be doing this while foolproofing?
I foolproofed the bundle (PT1-35) before I started PT’ing because I knew how terrible I was at games. However, I know other people who did PTing/drilling/FP’ing concurrently and that worked for them too.
Thanks Alex for your suggestion! It is something that I am going to start implementing ASAP!

Approaching midnight... this must be a record.
I would consider this cruel and unusual punishment! :)
I am not as committed as you are in my studies :) I share this because as I prepare for Jan, I decided to focus as much as I can on LG since the quickest improvements are seen in this specific section. I went back to your post and it sounded like in just one study session you are doing a lot everywhere instead of concentrating on a specific section. When it is PT day, only do PT; BR day, only BR; start every day with a drill of some sort (make it fun...have drill sets ready and choose an online teacher student randomizer and let that pick your drill for the day for X minutes) and maybe take as much time as you can in Dec to focus on LG and then begin Jan going through everything. I know that this response is all over the place as well lol
@samuelttyler890 THANK YOU!!! You just provided the language for the revised version :) SINCEREST THANKS!
I am stuck between 2 PS topics and would love your feedback on one of them.
At some point in my college career, I was part of a student teaching placement, wrote a scathing letter to a Superintendent (oops!), and got a call from the Dean of my college to meet. Entering the meeting, I thought that I was getting kicked out and leaving the meeting, he offered to set me up with a meeting with the Regents of the top law school in Texas (and a warning of course!).
Is this topic too risque for my PS? I dont want to seem like I question authority and go rogue. Thoughts?
PS--I didn't take him up on that offer...
I don't know about you guys...but at some points of general studies or completing PT's...I hear JY's voice rationalizing my answers (but the ones that I get wrong are from JY's evil twin lol).
Procrastinator here :) How many hours are you guys actually committing to studying daily? Seeing the commitment from others will make me feel inferior...and up my game! THANKS!
I am no expert, but here are some suggestions :) SKIP your weakest types during testing and save those last. Have you tried the same "fool-proofing" method done for LG for LR? For example, I am using the question bank and downloading sets of questions from PT 1-35 and just drilling (and are planning to review explanations of missed ones). I am also drilling with a 3:1 ratio of untimed to timed; as test date gets closer, it will be more 1:1.
@naomiavery410 How many hours daily/weekly did you study?
THANK YOU to all who commented! It sure did get my butt into gear!!!
Any success stories to share for diag at 145 and writing 160+? Looking for some motivation and avg weekly hour of studying :)
