Hello all! I would appreciate your honest feedback about my situation.
My dream school is Georgetown Law due to some of the dual programs they have, and I think I have a really strong application for this next cycle. As of now, I have a 4.0 GPA from an Ivy, with two well-known professors from the law school here writing a letter of rec for me. According to my tutor, I also have a very strong resume given my experience at some top firms around the country, and my research assistant positions at my school's law school as well as some con law extracurriculars. Given my interest in the public sector, my resume and personal statements help me in this way too.
My only potential issue is the LSAT, as I got a 165 for my first try this January. Because of a family situation that developed, and school+work, my ability to dedicate as much time to studying for the LSAT has been severely restricted. I can still study here and there, but I'm not sure how much progress I can make to raise my score given my situation, at least for this cycle.
So I was wondering if anyone could share their opinions about my competitiveness for Georgetown Law. With my resume, GPA, and score, do I have a good chance of getting in? I know their median is 171 this year but I don't know how much the extracurricular and GPA elements can help my application.
#help. The explanation to this question has confused me a tad bit. While I recognize that the stimulus' use of the words "not simply learned" responses make answer B plausible, answer E seems just as, if not even more, likely to strengthen the argument because there is no clear indication that the dolphins are responding to stimuli in their natural habitat, meaning that their responses are not learned. In contrast, in answer B they are still responding to stimuli, indicating that they are in fact learning to respond.
As such, it seems that both answers strengthen the argument, but E does so even more, and which one is chosen depends on a subjective analysis. Does anyone have any suggestions or help to see this differently? Because I am at a loss as to how to think about this question, or what to take into account in my study given this answer choice.
