Hi all,
I've been out of college for a few years now, so I asked my manager to write me a letter of recommendation and she readily agreed. She would like to see some examples of good letters of recommendation, since she's never written one for law school apps. Anyone have any helpful links and/or words of wisdom? I've found plenty of examples for letters from professors, but not a lot of robust guidance for employers.
Thanks!
Can you explain why (E) is wrong? I was stuck between (C) and (E) and ended up choosing (E).

@ @ thanks for the help! I'll have to go back and re-do games and break down what's taking too long.

Have you fool-proofed games yet?
What exactly does "foolproofing" mean? I've done games over and over after watching the video until I can get them all correct in the recommended time. But I still have trouble going fast enough on timed PTs.
#help I don't understand why E is wrong. The conclusion of the argument is "if nightlights cause nearsightedness, the effect disappears with age." E says that in the study of several older children, several of the children were nearsighted. Doesn't that weaken the argument by showing that the effect (nearsightedness) does NOT disappear with age?
@ thanks so much for the thoughtful and informative response :) Forgot to mention I am a first generation American, but am guessing that won't help (might even hurt?) because I'm Asian-American... Will have to focus on getting a really absurdly good LSAT score!
I have a solid but not amazing undergrad GPA, with a double major and a lot of on-campus involvement and leadership activities. I will have 3 years of great work experience when I apply to law school this fall (client-facing, well-known consulting firm, earned a quick promotion). Will the longer amount of time between my college years and my law school applications help alleviate my less-than-impressive GPA (3.65)? Only interested in T-14. Hoping to score in the mid-170s.
Hi all! I'm hitting my target score on Blind Review, but the logic games are killing me on timed PTs. Once I blind review I tend to get all the logic games correct, sometimes -1, but it just takes me way longer than 35 minutes. I just can't finish all four games in time. How do I get faster?

If there's anything particularly "academic" about your job- writing, any sort of research, etc.- then asking her to highlight those skills and how you've used them might be a good idea. Or something that would indicate good performance in law school, like excellent time management skills maybe? As general LOR advice, it's better to have an anecdote or story that shows your good qualities rather than just a laundry list of generic skills.
Thanks! I do lots of writing and research and presenting to clients/managing client relationships, so I'll ask her to highlight those skills.
