I'm not ready. But it's to late to get my money back in anyway so I'm sitting the test anyway. But I'm canceling my score. Hopefully I'm ready by February to take it again.

This is awesome and amazing. The first step to the rest of your life. And what I am sure will be a promising career!! Congratulations!!!

Excited for this. Hopefully it helps me more in the future when I come back to it. :)

Exact same on my end too. Even if I feel good about a game, the time's right, and I get just one wrong, I foolproof it (albeit fewer times than if I genuinely struggle with a given game). Keeping a couple extra copies on hand to review the next day and a few weeks down the line is also really helpful, as the others have mentioned. Like you, I categorized mine. With the extra copies, however, I mix them up for when I revisit them in a week or two. Games used to be my absolute worst section by far and now I'm averaging around -2 or -3 and working to getting it to -1 or 0. Good luck! :smile:

Thanks! I am working on getting to -3 or better a game. I just started doing this method so I know I have my work cut out for me. I will also mix up my retests.

I look forward to working on this section. Thanks everyone for the advice.

So I personally have not used Kaplan. I know someone who is currently in law school (not a good one) he did the Kaplan course twice. He got a 142 on his first LSAT, then redid the course because of their promise of "if you don't get the score you were expecting then you can retake it for free" so he retook it and got a 144. He somehow got into law school after his third attempt with a 145. It is a local school, it is not ranked and charges 3-4x what the local ranked school charges. Basically a "as long as you have a pulse, then you get in" type deal. I have never heard of Kaplan doing well by their students-so I have always stayed away. I am curious though, as to why you would consider them over 7Sage? I have personally had my struggles with 7Sage, but I have used the forum to figure out where to go back to and reattach. And in doing so I have found so many principles I somehow missed when doing my initial prep. Perhaps your like me and you need a reattack?

Texas A&M School of Law. I didn't get to go there for undergrad, I wish it had worked out that way but it didn't. I want to be an Aggie, I want the network, I want core values and I want to be the best with the best. I want to practice in Texas, and I know there is great schools for my kid in Fort worth. I know A&M will be a big sacrifice, but it will be worth it. Its not that I dont want to go to a big name school, I do (kinda), but I will not sacrifice my kid's education to get mine. And Texas has great schools.

Yeah, I am worried for sure. I hope I see you there. We are planning to build in northern Fort Worth. Near Haslet, a bit of a commute but I have a kid and the school district is great. Inner city school districts are horrid even for Texas. There is a big veteran community there too. Which is nice.

@ I am trying to go to TAMU fall of 18. I have enough post 9/11 to pay for the first two years, and my husband is going to transfer 30 hours to me so I can pay for my last year of school. Unless I get high enough on the LSAT I can negotiate them paying for my last year. Where you thinking of trying to go?

@ Nice to see some devil dogs here!! @ a Army rep. I will be the AF rep, 8 years AD. And yes, our couches are fabulous!!

@ just ignore me, i swear I'm just losing my marbles. :smile:

I have been going back and forth for 2 days. I had to skip a game (game 2) and come back to it, and I ran out of time. I guessed hardcore on 4 questions. Ugh!! I am also concerned that I was somehow high as a kite for RC because everyone is saying it was hard but I thought it was okay. I am freaking out. I am worried. I had LR LG LR LR RC

@ what time on Saturday will you be doing this? I am not seeing on the link.

Well, the logical thing is to go back to the course curriculum and restart. I am trying very hard to not be discouraged by the fact I am restarting again. Maybe this time will be the time for improvement. Frankly (and honestly) I am really discouraged. I was hoping to be starting law school in fall 2017, and now I am not 100% sure I can even start in fall 2018. But I know I'm not going anywhere if I don't get this score up.

I made the mistake of testing before I was getting my goal test score. It just leads to frustration, disappointment and one blown test chance. I am not an expert but don't test until you are getting the scores you want consistently.

I truly needed this post. I feel like I am stupid because I can't figure out how to break into the 150s. I have been trying to remember this takes time but I feel like this has been a huge waste of time because I'm not doing any better than when I started the program. But thanks for this post and the comments.

If you’re still in undergrad, the prelaw advisor should be a good free resource to check over your PS. If you have good mentor relationship with a professor, that might be another option too.

I am no longer in undergrad. I graduated in 2016. But I suppose I could ask some old professors. Or a friend who I think was an English major. She might have more time than the professors who are dealing with dead week and finals. Thanks!!

I have been skipping questions lately. But I haven't been doing entire sections yet. Just each passage that the RC syllabus tells me to do. So if I skip I am coming back to that question before my 8.5 minutes are up.

I have a full sleeve, a few on my shoulders and hips and plan to have at least another half sleeve prior to law school/practicing law. I have done work at the county court house which is fairly large. The rules are very clear, you must cover up. Even little ones on the wrist must be covered. Either with makeup or work attire. All of my tattoos can be covered as long as I wear a cardigan or blazer which are already required for court in Oklahoma County. I would advise as long as it can covered your okay.

So I am curious how you know the real sections from experimental. I personally had 3 LR, 1 LG, 1RC. I couldn't tell you specifics if I wanted because I don't remember, it was such a huge blur. Anyone's head still spinning when they think about it to much?
