Look at your target school on lawschoolnumbers.com I cant say how accurate it is but im sure it will still give you some idea about what your chances are at top 20 school. http://lawschoolnumbers.com/

I think its worth it if you are a splitter trying to get into T-14, Ucla, Usc, Texas etc. I started with personal statement and later upgraded to full admissions consulting, they let me apply cost of personal statement to full consulting. So if money is tight, maybe start with personal statement help. After you're done with PS, you can decide if you still want to do full consulting and talk to them about payment plans.

Check my review for them below:

As a splitter applicant aiming for a T-14, I needed to put together the best application and write the best essay I could.

I highly recommend Ben and Christie. Ben worked with me on the personal statement, from the brainstorming stage to the final draft that I submitted. He provided extremely useful feedback on every draft that I wrote. I also owe a lot of gratitude to Christie. With her experience in law school admissions, Christie provided useful advice every step of the way, from feedback on my Why X essays, diversity statements, addendum essays, interview prep, correspondence with law schools, and scholarship negotiations. She was extremely punctual as well. She always answered my emails within 24 hours or less. Thanks to Ben and Christie, I got into a T-10 with merit aid! I truly believe that it was my essays and application that got me in. I also want to thank David for working with me on coming up with a payment plan that suited my financial situation. 7Sage may not be the cheapest out there, but they are the best value! The investment worth it in the end!

@-dawg I was working full time 40-60 hour weeks so i was studying on and off for a year and a half. For RC, I found the 7sage memory method really hepful. LG, the foolproof method works, and for LR, i read ellen cassidy’s book lsat loophole and did the drills. Treat your lsat like another job try to schedule at least 12-15 hours a week studying for it.

YES! Take your diagnostic with a grain of salt. I'm sure most people get bad scores on their diagnostics. Mine was 145, i ended up with 169 on the July LSAT. Put in the time and effort, do the lessons,the drills, and work on your weaknesses.

My diagnostic was 145. I ended up with a 169 on the July 2019 LSAT. Take your diagnostic with a grain of salt. You've never been exposed to the material, so its expected that you will do poorly. I worked full time and studied for the LSATS. Its challenging but if you want it enough you'll find the time and energy to study. Treat LSAT studying like a job, set time aside to study and stick to the curriculum.

Hi I'm applying to Michigan right now. I wanted to learn more about the school. What is the law school culture like there? How do you like your professors and classmates? How do you like the Ann Arbor? I'm from California, and I've never been to Michigan. In your experience how have students from other states adapted to Ann Arbor?

Thanks. I normally do ok with time. I finish around 3-5 min early most of the time. Yes im finding that getting reps in for rc helps.

Thanks.amazon fire it is. I guess its fine if its not as big. It makes prep test harder than the real thing which is a good.

@ I would start with taking untimed tests from the older LSAT PTs, to diagnose my weakness. I think untimed is a great way to diagnose your weaknesses because if you got something wrong and you can't blame running out of time or not having enough time. RC was my main weakness so I honed in on doing the memory method that 7sage teaches. For LR, I supplemented with Ellen Cassidy's Loophole. As I got better, I would start doing timed tests with 1 hour per section, 50 min per section, etc.

I'm in the same boat. My untimed and blind review scores are in the 170s but when it comes time to do timed PTs, i keep getting stuck in the mid 160s.

I registered yesterday but didnt get any email confirmation.

thanks. I work full time so ive done only like 5 full PTs, always getting 163-165 on all of them. Just frustrated im stuck in this rut, i want to get to 170 so bad

I worked full time and had some 60 hour weeks, so a year and a half on and off to get to 169. one point short of my target score.

Thanks @ . This is an extreme reach school for me so yeah i agree i can be more punchier

How do we write low resolution summaries next to rc passages?

How do we write our low resolution summary next to the paragraphs?

WIll you upload the University of Texas webinar from last month? I was only able to listen in on parts of it.

@ wow thank you so much for this info. This is really useful information! I'm completing my Michigan application, right now, it this makes me even more excited about the school.

Go for the whole top 14 plus Texas, UCLA,... As a splitter, your results will be all over the place. I was a splitter with worse scores than you, I got into Michigan, and Texas but waitlisted at UCI, USC, UCLA, Davis. Just make sure, your essay(s) and application are perfect and ideally submit them early like before Thanksgiving.

I was in your shoes two years ago. I was 6 years out of college when i was studying for my cpa exam. It was tough to be working full time and studying for the lsat, but now im at a t-14. Stick with it, take it one step at a time, be disciplined and you'll get there.

Thanks guys. Im not taking this test until June, so I think I'll upgrade in a month or two.

@ thanks.im doing a retake. 5 years ago i got a 164. Im doing well on LR this time, i get about -4 and -2 on LR sections but RC and LG im pretty bad like -5 to -8, so im looking to improve my scores on those two sections to equal my LR score
