LSAT · A person who got 180 told me he copied down RC passages with hand. Do you think it will help?

In the past, I waited until the last moment to take my real estate exam. If I would’ve waited one more day I would’ve had to take a 64 hour course all over again. So, we had two books. The main instruction manual and a summary book of the main instruction manual. Over the weekend I typed out the whole summary book including recreating the tables in MS Word. I took the test on that Monday and past without any issues. I do believe that these methods of handwriting or typing do really help retain information and/or structure of information.

Insight to Legal Profession Required

I have to share this, I’ve been back and forth with this LSAT for a long time. I just need to share that I have siblings that are lawyers and I can tell you that they have no time for living. I’ve become more aware of it lately. I’d highly recommend that everyone considering becoming a lawyer really look into the profession and the time that it will take from your life. I have decided today after really noticing and seeing the time, effort, dedication, and family sacrifice it takes to be a successful attorney that it’s not the profession for me. It just “clicked” today. You have to know what your getting yourself into. Thanks for reading, just my two cents.

@ said:

First of all - @ I've printed this story out and it's now taped to my desk at work. Strong ladies: may be know them, may we be them, may we raise them! Amen.

Secondly @ this woman had at least 4 years (while she was studying) to understand what 'being a lawyer' entails. During that time do you think that she didn't do her homework on that? You question her dedication to being a lawyer by suggesting "if you truly want to be a lawyer" then you suggest she should know some things about being a lawyer and you give her a generic video of some guy explaining the (well known) hardships of practicing law? Then you suggest that she should re-consider being a lawyer? NO.

She wakes up before any actual lawyer I know to be able to work on this exam and also still practice her family values and goes to work (AND SLAYS....SHE JUST SLAYS THE WHOLE DAMN DAY. That promotion. The meditation. The consistent exercise. The family time. SLAYS).

All I see when I see this woman's story is the grit (physical, emotional, all the grit) needed to be a lawyer or anything else she puts her mind to. All the power to her.

Hi I appreciate the reply, just giving a different perspective. Maybe her gift is in teaching...prepping for the LSAT and killing it like she did is no small feat, but it is nothing like practicing law. There are many people who destroy the LSAT (AKA 180) and have successful careers teaching. I am sure she will do phenomenal in law school with her dedication, but being a successful lawyer and being there for family is tough. Maybe the YouTube video was not the best interpretation of my message. I got that. Take care. Remember, its just my opinion.

First of all, Congratulations! You worked hard and persevered. I would like to make a statement regarding your future and the law. I see in a previous post that you value being present for your children. Speaking from experience with my family, if you truly want to be a lawyer it is a career that will keep you away from your family, specifically your children. If I were you I’d look into tutoring or teaching other prospective law student how to ace the LSAT. You could possible make a really good career out of the hard work you have done to learn the in and outs of the exam. It’s sad but the law requires everything from the practitioner. I see it in my own family. I hope the best for you and your family and whatever path you choose. Check out this reality check YouTube video. It will make my point clear.

LSAT · Farewell for now!

Congratulations!

"I definitely started off faster than most. My cold diagnostic was a 169 and RC was my strongest section from day 1."

Enough said. Your a genius! LOL
