I identified the flaw, but choosing the answer that matched it was so hard.

@ In my letter, I discussed my focus on full-time LSAT studying. While I can't pinpoint what specifically aided my case, I did include my transcript and a letter of non-filing. I recommend taking the time to explain why a fee waiver would benefit you personally and submitting an appeal. At the very least, there's nothing to lose by trying.

I like to handwrite my notes, specifically important information that I find helpful throughout the explanations and lessons. I write quite often, as I find it allows me to internalize the information better (every day or so). But, because it does take me much longer to write than type, I typically only write down information that can be used in several contexts, not just for an individualized question.

I was instantly denied for the LSAC fee waiver as well, but appealed and received one! Just wanted to throw that out there in case you haven't tried.

Taking the June LSAT too! Trying to prioritize my studying so I can get the best score possible.
