I'm on waitlist for NYU and I got a Kira invite-to do an interview. Any and all advice welcome and what kind of questions are they likely to ask, that I should be practicing? (other than why law/why NYU)

A question about early decision - if I apply early decision to a law school and then for various factors I decide I am not going to go to law school at all (very complicated explanation for this but I may end up getting a very lucrative job and not go). What would this mean for me? It cant force me to go to the law school I am assuming.
I am seeing online "that your required to attend that particular school or not go to law school at all that year" from a blog on power score. But just curious if anyone has more insight

@matthewcsorrels859 Sorr Thank you for your thoughtful response this is super helpful! From my understanding for early decision is binding in that if you go to law school you have to go to that select school, but if it wouldnt force me to go to law school? I may post seperate thread on this - thanks for bringing that up
I need some advice. My two top (reach schools) are NYU and Columbia. I am deciding which to apply early decision to. For context I have a 3.9 GPA from a top undergrad university, will have 3 years of work experience at a top management consulting firm, and 166 LSAT (largely impact by working 70+ hour weeks and limited study time). I also have some interesting extracurriculars, etc.
If I look at the LSAT predictor on 7sage (taking with grain of salt):
I know odds are low either way (so maybe it doesnt really matter). I am not necessarily super set on going to law school (will go to biz school if it does not work out because likely better odds BUT if I get into Columbia I would 100% go). It would be great to get any advice!! thanks so much :)

I feel like the amount of questions that test you on not having a false dichotomy aka ONLY being wrong motivations and right; makes it so weird that LSAT is accepting this negation of right motivation - if anyone can explain #help

No because you would be making a false dichotomy error, just because "not enjoy consuming it" is not the same as dislike, they could be indifferent

Hi I was also deciding between AC E and B, and ended up choosing B. First, if you negate B "There were more than 45 professional opera companies that had been active 30 years ago and have ceased operations". This means essentially that the 45 opera studios that opened up are less than the the 45 companies that closed, which completely wrecks the conclusion that there has been an explosion of public interest because more have gone out of business then opened.
Its harder to see whats wrong with E and under timed conditions I just felt like B was more necessary to ensuring the conclusion. I think E is wrong because of the wording "enthusiasm on the part of a potential audience"because it does not closely match the conclusion, which is saying two things explosion of public interest AND explosion of enjoyment. So essentially its not necessary that opera houses opened as a result of enthuasim on the part of a potential audience, because technically it could be current audiences that are driving this (I think ?)

Hi the most important difference between AC C and D is that D uses "most" - "most of the people in each city then...", while the parallel premise to the stimulus which is "books are GENERALLY published by quince press..." uses "generally"; in this case you can equate "most" to "generally"; AC C uses a definite phrase, so it does not exactly parallel the reasoning

Hi this happened to me, eventually the wifi resumed and the test came back up but the timer kept going. They also would not let me take it on another date, so definitely should try your best to find somewhere with reliable wifi!

Im not positive but I think this is why - If you negate answer choice C "the proportion of arrests to crimes committed WAS significantly higher for criminals under intensive supervision than for those under routine supervision." this completely wrecks the conclusion because the metric your measuring against is no longer equal (aka more people can get away with a crime and not be arrested so we no longer have the information to say which is more effective because we dont have accurate data), alternatively if you negate E "the number of criminals put under routine supervision WAS significantly greater than the number of criminals put under intensive supervision" that does not immediately wreck the conclusion because the conclusion is based on a percentage of the total for each type, so just because the total number of routine supervision criminals was higher we cant assume more people were arrested because we dont have that information, therefore it isnt necessary. The two groups don't have to be equal in number of criminals because the conclusion is based on a percentage
