Hey @, @, and @ ! Thank you guys for sharing great information about when to start admissions. I definitely needed some insight on this...

I just recently started prepping for the LSAT to aim for the September score. I come from a neuroscience/startup/business background and have a really hard time combining all my experiences together for my PS. Do you know if people from science mostly focus on IP law? What are some of the most popular paths applicants from BSc take? I honestly have no one to ask around me as all my friends are aiming for med and clinical research...Your input would be appreciated.

Very interesting background ranging from start up to neuroscience!

I wouldn't say people with science backgrounds necessarily focus on IP law, though, those who do focus on IP law do have science backgrounds. I honestly don't know the most popular paths people specifically with BScs take, but there are people with science backgrounds working in all sectors of the legal market. So the good news is you can pretty much follow your passion to pursue whatever area of law you'd like to practice. If that's IP you may need a Masters or Doctorate.

The masters or phd requirement for IP law is largely variant upon which field you come from. Electrical Engineers/Computer Science type fields can typically get by just fine with a bachelors. If you were from biomed/pharma/chemistry/physics, then a phd is likely more of a "soft" requirement.

@ I have a STEM background - if you have any questions feel free to ask! But as Alex said, you aren't required to do IP. It's just an exclusive door that we have the option of taking. If you'd prefer to do corporate law, or M&A, or health care, your science degree won't get in the way of that.

@

I also have a STEM background and I'm having a hard time bringing my experiences together to form my PS. How should stem majors go about writing a personal statement, combining the stem background with law without mentioning IP law?

Hey, I use to be very bad at weaken questions and feel that I’ve improved a bit. This is what I do. Whenever I read a weaken question, I look for causation/correlation, comparison, or explanation flaw. Usually weaken questions are one of the three kinds. Once you figure out which one it is, the answer then becomes pretty easy. I hope this helps.

@-2

Congrats!! That's great! Do you mind me asking what was your previous scoring avg and how did you manage to break into the 170s?

@ i live in Queens and would like to join the group. Let me know!

How does the test work? Is the score counted towards an LSAT attempt and do we get to see how we did?

It doesn't count, and isn't reported to any schools. You can't even see it on your LSAC profile.

(There also are no longer "attempts", since you can take it as many times as you want).

They will email you breakdown of how you did, but last time they offered the test, the report was complete garbage. They just gave you a total raw school (ex. 102/123, and then scores for each section, 20/24, etc.). It didn't show which questions you missed.

Ohh I see. What's the point if we can't even see what questions we missed. Thanks for the Info!

No problem. I'm travelling right now, will send it to you by the end of this week.

@ Sami mentioned, during the last session, that she won't be able to do more of these sessions as she has to focus on her lsat prep for September lsat.

I took notes from her session, if you guys want them let me know.

@

My bad. I didn't realize you had already done a repeat.

Thanks for doing these amazing sessions though! Really appreciate it :)

@

I'm willing to join in if Sami does a repeat of the last (conditional logic) session. I wasn't able to make it on time, so only saw the end which was very helpful. I would definitely be up for a repeat of the last session!

I'll be there!

Hey @ I'm in the same boat as you. Got a 160 on the June LSAT and my PT average was high 160's. Studying for September retake and have to approach with an effective study plan. Good Luck!

Hi. I'm new to 7sage and studying for September re-take. Can I still join in this weekend? I would like to become a part of this study group.

@ Congrats!!! That’s amamzing!

I got the same score as yours on my June lsat and now hoping to score in the 170s to get into T-14 schools. Can you share what you did differently and how were you able to achieve such a great score?

Thanks

please count me in!

@

Thanks! I'll definitely start incorporating this into my RC studying. I do neglect RC a lot. Hope i can make similar gains!

@

That's very impressive. Im also currently get 7-12 questions wrong on RC and would really like to bring it down to 2-3 wrong. Can you share your method of exactly how you were able to achieve such a great improvement and also how long it took you?
