"I would caution against writing anything about a history of underperforming on standardized tests. The bar exam is a standardized test and admissions committees are looking to bar passage success when reviewing applications as well. Good luck!"

How are you gonna pass the bar exam? It’s a standardized exam

No. Once you withdraw before test, it just disappears. It’s as if nothing happened.

No

A score lasts 5 years. No difference in terms of when you take it in those 5 years. What you get matters the most, not when you took it in that 5 year period.

once you take the LSAT and have an official LSAT on record, that's all that matters. Law schools will only look at your LSAT. Your GRE is now irrelevant.

anyone else have LR East/west monkeys? found that tough man.

@changrichard94444 I don’t think all Hispanics are URM. I’m pretty sure Spanish people from Spain are not URM. And I don’t think there’s a lot of evidence that people like Brazilians or Argentinians see the same amount of URM boost traditionally given to Mexicans, African Americans, etc.

I do not think you are a URM in the traditional sense. URM is Mexican, Puerto Rican, and African American.

I do not believe Brazilians, Argentinians, Chileans, Guyanians,Cubans, Uruguayians, Peruvians, etc. other South Americans are considered URM. I also don’t think being part of an indigenous community back home matters for URM - just as I don’t think ethnic indigenous Uighurs in Xinjiang, China are considered URM for law school.

URM mostly focuses on the disparity between that population in the US and that population’s enrollment in law school. When compared to African Americans and Mexicans, there are not that many Guatemalan in the US to begin with to point to a big disparity— similar to how there aren’t that many Uighurs in the US to begin with.

I’m assuming this is most relevant for people who want to apply for admissions Fall 2022, given that Winners are announced January 2021?

I’m interested!

I am also having technical difficulties, at the video explanation page

@docmarsey318 yea I agree with a lot of what you said

Thank you!
