In approaching those "most vulnerable to criticism" question, do you guys think I can treat it as a weakening question and if the AC is correct, it will weaken the argument? Any other suggestion to solve this type?

WL as well. Is sending in a Why UMich and an LSAT addendum a bad idea? (assuming they want me to address my huge score differences)
@leahbeuk911 I did my NU one two weeks ago, the questions aren’t exactly the same, but prep with those def prepares you for the interview since the answers that you are going to give them are similar. Also, I think they ask everyone why NU and what else do you want to tell us.
@gregoryalexanderdevine723 nothing special except those mentioned by themikey and the mandatory why cornell. Maximum 1000 words. I also have a list of Cornell law interview questions gathered by some asian experts. I can PM it to you if you want.
@gregoryalexanderdevine723 one part of the application asked me to write Why Cornell.
The trainer improved my RC so much, i only got -2 on my real exam from a diagnostic of getting half of the section wrong. It teaches you some strategy on answering RC questions under timed conditions, so you dont have to always waste time on looking back to the passage.
https://niuschools.com/article/contents/id/4683 this article i found online gathered the most frequently asked interview questions by NU and Cornell, ignore all the chinese on the site, the first 43 english questions are NU's and the rest are cornell's
@jsscalee211 just scheduled it! Thanks!
@jsscalee211 did you receive an email invitation or you have to go somewhere to register yourself? I clicked for video interview when filling out my application, but have not received any information regarding the interview. Thanks!

The order of my test was LR (25), RC, LR (25), LR (26), LG. The question topics that I remember from the LR sections are:
First LR 25: prodevelopment was the first question
Second LR 25: a question about commitment should be morally neutral
Third LR 26: science with physical phenomena, tornado, Indian spice.
For me, I honestly thought that the first LR section was the hardest and second was very easy. It seems like the second one is the experimental section which is pretty upsetting...
I feel the same. I have 25 25 26 as well and the 1st 25 was harder than the second 25...
Which one is even experimental...
Would C be correct if the "should" is changed to "must" ?
no but if Harvey hired him as paralegal, he won't be able to negotiate with people...
Scored 10 points lower than usual on LR. This test is...ugh
I asked two and two of them did not know me at all(but I got really high grades in those classes). One just asked for my PS which i didn't have at the time so I sent her my PS outline, the other asked me to meet and I just talk non-stop for an hour. Profs usually are not surprised when students ask them for LOR, and they are pretty willing to write you one if you get good grades in their classes(not sure about other uni but thats the case in mine)
it is somehow scary that PT81 has a very ungenerous curve
you will get super tired but then you will find yourself sitting through an exam much more easily

train yourself to run on a treadmill for an hour nonstop with speed, it really helps to improve your stamina for the exam
Mind Body connection? I might have to try running a bit more and check this technique out!

@71888 great! i will try that, thank you!
@6400 @71888 i usually have trouble prephrasing the flaw of an argument and this type of question is keeping me away from achieving a higher score, so im trying to find a strategy that could quickly lead to a correct AC. What method do you guys usually use when you are under time pressure?
Cant attend today due to family plan, will see you all next week!

Hi! I'm not sure if by list you mean the tag list for this study group. You should ask @gabriellatkj630 if you'd like to be tagged. But if you meant you'd like to go over PT56RC tomorrow, let me know and I can send you the discord link!
oh sorry for the confusion, I meant the list for the RC tomorrow, THANKSSS
@zbpohlman247 Thanks for your help! I am actually pretty consistent in LG, sadly, my fluctuation is mainly in LR, like some answers just don't pop out to me in that test comparing to the others:( How would you approach this? Thank you again
Hello,
I just restarted my full length practice after a while, scored a 164 for pt 52 last week and 172 for pt 51 this week (WTH)..I was also sick while doing PT 52 last week but I doubt that is the reason since I only improved 2 points after BR. Should I attribute this to differences in the level of difficulty? How do you guys keep your score consistent?
THANKSSS

@zachweisenbarger992 and I will be going over PT56 RC (the experimental section we didn't get to) on Tuesday at 7pm pacific/9pm central/10 eastern time. Let us know if you'd like to join!
Can you add me on the list? THANKSSS
@uhinberg359 do you mind to read my why umich? I am not sure whether it fits their taste :(
