I’m frustrated. My diagnostic was a 157 in February. Took June and scored a 165. I had been PTing with average of 168 prior to the exam. Kicked in and studied for the September exam. Was PTing consistently in the 170s with an average of 173 leading up to exam. Scored a 165 again. I felt like I probably didn’t get the 173 average but I definitely thought I was getting at least a 168. I don’t know what to do at this point. I feel burned out and don’t see any way to improve for November. I think I’m just going to apply with where I am. I’m not looking at T14 anyway.
I took the June 2018 LSAT and scored right at the low end of where I want to be. I plan on retaking in September. Any advice on how best to prep in the next couple of months? I feel like I set myself up really well for the test in June and I am out of fresh PTs to use. Thoughts?
There was a famous psychological study that actually said the opposite that this says. Harry Harlow studied monkeys and found that they would choose the cloth mother without the bottle over the wire mother with the bottle. This question took me way longer than it should have because the results contradicted the results of the famous study.
I applied to WashU back in mid-October. It was kind of a reach school for me, so I was not necessarily expecting a quick invite for an interview. However, it has been over three months since I have applied, and I have heard nothing. I'm assuming it's a likely denial but am confused as to what is taking so long to tell me no. The status tracker indicates that they have received all of my documents but says nothing else regarding the status of my application. Is this typical?
I am on track to take the June LSAT, but with less than two months to go, I am starting to feel the anxiety creep in. Where my anxiety stems from is how inconsistent I feel like I can be with my prep tests. Although my raw scores and my overall scores are rather consistent (ranging from 161-169 with an average of 165), I vary quite widely within sections. I have had times where I score perfectly on Reading Comp, and I have had times where I have only had 67% on Reading Comp; sometimes I miss only 1 or 2 out of both sections combined with LR, but other times I miss 7 or 8 combined. So far, the times where I have been less successful in Reading Comp have corresponded with stronger LR and vice versa, but I am starting to worry about potentially having an particularly bad day when I have a bad RC and perform poorly on LR. Any ideas on how to get more consistent? Thanks!
Thank you so much for the suggestions! That all makes complete sense. I really appreciate the 7sage community!
