The guy in this video claims to have gotten a perfect 180 and did so by redoing about 20 different practice tests repeatedly (there were only about that many PT's available when he was studying).

I live in an artist cooperative. It is stated in our Bylaws "Except for the chairperson of the committee, such committee members need not be Directors."

The chairperson of one of our committees is not a Director.

That doesn't fly with the logic of the given Bylaws, right? Doesn't the chairperson NEED to be an elected Director? The quote-unquote chairperson in question says that I'm wrong, and that the chairpersons of our committees need not be Directors. Who is right?

I went ahead and simply emailed the admissions office at the school that I'm hoping to attend. They responded promptly and said that a Feb. LSAT score would not be too late for fall 2014 admission and that I'd still be eligible for scholarships. My school of choice is Hamline U in St. Paul, MN (they have one of only two PT weekend J.D programs in the country!).

I am concerned about the same thing . . . I did contact admissions at the school I hope to attend and they said that yes, scholarship opportunities would still be available even as a later enrollee, so, maybe you could do that to? Contact admissions.

I'm concerned about my decision to attend a lower ranked school and I'm hoping someone can give me some guidance. Going to a good school (T14 or whatever) is not even an option for me . . . I'm 30 years old and married with stepchildren, and so I'm stuck in Duluth, MN where there IS no law school. My only option is to attend the weekend program at Hamline University, a lowly ranked school in St. Paul, which is commuting distance away. So, instead of shooting for a good school, I hope to get a good *scholarship* at a lesser ranked school so that I don't have a mountain of debt when I'm finished. But is this still considered crazy? I hear a lot of ragging on Hamline especially since it's located next to the U of MN which is a fantastic law school and so prospects for Hamline students all the more suck. What should I do? Are all my dreams of becoming a successful lawyer doomed because I am unable to live in a large city that has a decent school? Furthermore, I do hate cities and would rather practice law in a small city (like less than 50,000 peeps) or I'd rather work for a non-profit, so then I'm all the more inclined to attend lowly Hamline because I think the debt-free prospect will be worth more to me than the prestige. But does anyone have some advice for me? Should I ditch the hubby and kids and move to the east coast? KIDDING. But seriously. Anyone?

Is anyone else going to take the Feb. 2014 LSAT for possible 2014 admission?
