Hey!

Just got my first acceptance last week and it was not my first choice but seeing how this cycle is going it might be my only choice.... so now I am stuck between the choice of going or wait till next cycle and would really like to get your opinion on the matter (it's a big decision!)

Option 1: Go (oh it's BYU btw)

Pros:

Cons:

Option 2: Don't go and move to California

Pros:

Cons:

I currently have a 161 and 3.74, applied to BYU (duh), UCLA, USC, Berk, UT, but I doubt I'll get into any of the other schools this cycle. Let me know what you think? I keep getting the "Top15 or don't go" vibe, is that true?

edit: Might I add that BYU is flying me out from Dublin to Utah next weekend to admitted students day so I could check out the school. They spent like $1k on the ticket and I feel like a superstar.

I have a google doc that is dedicated to BR. Depending on the question type I type up the necessary information in the document, for example if it's a flaw question I would write down the conclusion/MP, support, gap, answers analysis, and my final answer. I go through every question. I like it because it forces me to break down my thought process, but it takes a lot of time and I am just curious as to how other 7Sagers do it.

Hey I already took 3 official tests but they all came back less than satisfactory. I’m planning on taking the June and Sept one this year. That’ll be 5 tests in my file, is that too many? Is there a point where schools will say “no that’s too much”?

So I just got my feb score and really screwed that one up. My Dec test score is higher than the feb score. I already told schools that I will be taking the Feb test so they are waiting for my score. Should I and can I call the schools to tell them I don’t want to report my Feb score? Or would that not matter because my highest score is my Dec score and they won’t bother with my new score?

Thanks ??

What should I do if I already told law schools I'm going to take the Feb test but I know that I won't perform very well on it?

My applications are already in. GPA 3.74 Last LSAT 161. Really want to get into some reaching schools like USC and UCLA. Should I mentally prepare myself for rejections and apply again next cycle?

Hey guys, I am debating whether I should write a diversity statement or not. I am already writing about a socio-economic challenge that I overcame in my socio-economic addendum and I don’t really have a topic to write for my diversity statement aside from the fact that my family was dirt poor but we still moved around the world in search of a better place to live and so I got to live in different cultures and learned to adapt. Is that a good enough topic? Because I don’t see how that could contribute to the classroom discussions. Maybe I just don’t know enough of what they want

Hey guys! I need a couple more points for the February test. What are some "last-minute" measures I should take? I just go the LSAT trainer book and is working hard at it. What else should I do?

As title. Am I allowed to use the Core Curriculum as I'm going through my BR?

Hey guys! Two questions.

I am going to take the test in December, which coming up pretty quickly. My timed tests are consistently at 160 and my BRs are 166-170.

Would I be able to make my BR score a reality in two months?

Also, I am currently doing two PTs a week and BRs between the two, but I have trouble concentrating when doing BR and so even just the two days between the two PTs feels like it's not enough time for me to learn much.

Should I switch to doing only one PT a week and spend the rest of the week with BR?
