Thank you everyone! This is surreal.

@pappasm916 You got this.

Congrats!! :)

@allisonbilenkey71.Bilenkey good job! :) That’s damn impressive!

Glad you enjoyed my comments and yes us Canadians have to stick together!

Maybe I’ll see you around in law school :)

@kashibrandi609 Thank you! Your wisdom on here certainly helped!

@masi809 thank you!!

@cnguyen2195719 thank you bro!

@chelseapichor156 Thank you for the breakdown!

I'm going to get back at it tomorrow.

@chelseapichor156 Thank you! Great response :)

@chelseapichor156 thank you as well!

I did mostly flex PTs. I think this was a mistake because it may have lowered my stamina, which seemed to be my problem on test day.

I everything into that LG section because it's my weak area and I felt gassed after.

Are you sure you didn't do well?

I think we're poor at estimating how we actually did on these tests.

I don't think I did well on the Nov FLEX either but at the same time I wouldn't be shocked if I did better than I thought.

Cancelling gives you very little benefit, especially if, in your case, the schools don't average scores.

You will be considered with your Jan score though, if you do decide to cancel.

Guys I just landed a full-time position and this situation has just escalated very quickly...

I am actually shocked as this position looks to be very good for me.

Ughhhh this has just gotten so much harder.

@chelseapichor156 Are you American?

In Canada there is category you can apply to if you have faced extenuating circumstances in your life that impacted your studies, such as illness.

@chelseapichor156

Thanks for the response!

Over here 160 is the golden standard for admission. I could probably get in somewhere with just a few point increase though.

I have definitely built this test up a lot in my mind and that could very well be what is holding me back here. I really need to work on the whole relaxing thing...

@kashibrandi609 I appreciate the optimism and you made a great point about the gap between the job search and actually getting hired.

I think I'm going to take your advice and job hunting on my down time. I need something else as an outlet.

@kashibrandi609 Thank you for sharing your experience with this.

I've been at this mostly full-time for about 6 months so part of me just wants to be done with it all.

If I can muster the motivation then sticking to full-time study would be best for my chances at a better score. I just feel like the pressure is accumulating more given that I am doing nothing but studying, if that makes any sense.

I like the BLE.

BIG LSAT ENERGY!!

I think the best advice I can give here is to drill the fundamentals. It was painstaking, but taking the time to thoroughly understand the content of the CC and doing the drills over and over is what has helped me.

Also, for people like us who lack natural talent for this exam, repetition is our friend. You need to drill, drill and drill some more.

At first you may feel like you're wasting your time, but trust me when I say that the patterns repeat themselves. Do hundreds of LR qs, hundreds of LGs, and plenty of RC passages and you'll start to get questions right by virtue of familiarity.

If this process forces you to apply later, then so be it. Forcing a timeline has given me more anxiety than provided me benefit.

Don't give up my friend. If you crushed your undergrad you can do this.

@tallentrandall119 So, if your friend was working their ass off trying their hardest to achieve their goal, you wouldn't give them any encouragement?

Lots of people, hell maybe most people don't go after their dreams.

Lighten up.

As a vegan with a peanut allergy I really identified with J.Y's analogy for question 22 ac C lol

Thank you both!!

and @ethanzavarella991 it's about $300 Canadian dollars. That conversion rate hurts lol

@aljassarnada308 thank you!

It is a skills based test...so hopefully I can just do enough to keep sharp.

Isolation from friends helped a lot early on but one can only live like that for so long.

I feel you on this one. Shit question.

Just because it is successful as a comedy we're to assume that criticism of it's realism is "misguided".

A film could succeed in being tragic, but I feel it is still justifiable to criticize it if it's overdone.

Hey we're in a similar boat! I'm also writing in November and would love to just be done with this.

Here's the thing though, we have to dig deeper here. We did not spend all this time studying in vain. We didn't make all these sacrificies to squander the time we have left.

If you've made significant progress so far, you likely have a method that works. Your "intuition failing" could just be a bad LR section, that happens to everyone.

Keep your head up. You're on the cusp of achieving something many people only dream about.

One more month of grinding will go by quickly, but that feeling you'll have when you get that score you've been working for, I'd imagine that feeling will last indefinitely. (Pain is temporary and all that...)

Goodluck :) Wish you the best!
