Thank you 7sage. The waiting process of admissions has been brutal but this week I got into both of my dream schools! None of this would have been possible without this amazing community. I cannot say enough times how awesome 7sage is and everytime I see what is new it seems to be getting better and better. I love this community and owe so much to many people here. THANK YOUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!!!!!!!
If I have time I will check to see how confident I am in all the answers if I get four in a row that are the same. I found it rare that they did four in a row (although it does exist) and I would often find if there was one I was wishy washy on that one was incorrect. I actually got several points on practice PTs this way. Overall though I would not spend a lot of time on this. The goal is to get good at answering the questions based on applied skills, not based on patterned guessing.
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fair enough. Happy wife, happy life. I'm not sure what you mean by ask for information but in general I would not go against the explicitly expressed wishes of your future wife (or she may not be your future wife). Hopefully you will be able to find another way to make her father feel respected. Best of luck to you and congratulations!
I cannot tell you how frustrating it is to have a non-disclosed test. Since you moved to the June test you will be able to see everything from the test and you would have been able to see NOTHING! from the February one. That alone makes it worth it. You can actually learn and get some closure from the silly thing.
*I may have some unresolved issues related to this topic*
Yikes!
I studied 15-20 hours a week while working full time and didn't burn out at all. That may have been because I LOVED learning about the LSAT and improving my skills as I went through the core curriculum. You may be different in where your point of diminishing returns lies.
Take you time to process and eventually you will get over the what could have beens and be ready to move forward with whatever reality awaits. I have been struggling with my disappointing LSAT scores from Sept. and Dec. but it gets a little better each day and I'm slowly embracing reality instead of the what ifs.
I would advise you to ask and not just tell him your plans. It provides an olive branch toward the future and shows respect. Of course you will still ask even if he decides to say he does not approve but that is on him. Doing your part to offer bridges is honorable regardless of the outcome.
@ Hope to see you in 1L. You are awesome!
I have appreciated this community very much. I am grateful for the massive score increase 7sage made possible for me. I feel somewhat disappointed because I scored well below my PT average but I still got a good score and I would not have made nearly the strides I made without @"J.Y. Ping" , @"Dillon A. Wright" and the rest of the gang. I hope I will end up at the same law school as some of you and that we will have a great time being miserable together as 1Ls.
To all of you who are still preparing: Be courageous to take on the tough challenge. It will take you through many lows. Don't stop moving forward. The skills you cultivate will be with you long after the LSAT is gone.
May God bless you greatly,
Jeremy Claridge
7sage is the best!
@ I feel for you. Keep your head up and know that adversity sucks while you are in it but is often the best when looked back on years from now.
Amen brother. There are others of us who are 33 and will be 34 when starting law school (hopefully). Your thoughts are appreciated. God bless!
@ The one thing I hate about threads is that tone is lost or easily misinterpreted. I was just trying to be goofy and it came off wrong. I am nothing but supportive of you brother! I hope you absolutely get a 180.
Just wanted to say thanks for all your wonderful help on 7sage. You are awesome!
@ Why not shoot for a 182? Why limit yourself? Every sports movie ever says to give 110% - be inspired!
I would keep but none of this is useful advice in terms of "predicting" an outcome. All is unknown. Pray about it.
They are different but not necessarily more difficult. There are still definitely psuedo similar games throughout the old PTs. You just need to be thorough with exhausting old games as be VERY good with the "usual" games so you have maximum time on the new ones.
Aim for June. You do not want to do a non-disclosed test. Plus you want to make sure your skills are ready and not rushed.
I wish there was a way to know what is and is not legal. It seems like so much is based on guessing and rumor. There are so many students who want to study in a legit fashion but would obviously prefer to do it in a convenient fashion (i.e. not hunting all over the internet to buy "rare" PTs, etc.) and reasonable costs. I wish LSAC would address this.
Definitely don't count on transferring. It may happen but it may not. Just get in where you want to go.
Oh to be able to have options. Stupid non-disclosed testing ferrmmnnn trgnnnn schmrgnnn phtttttttt!
Thanks @ !
@.busis @ Will there be a recording of this webinar that gets posted?
