I had mine last month, and received my acceptance today - it was a very standard law school interview with very ordinary questions in the likes of why law, why Harvard, and more specific queries about information on my resume and statements. I was rather flustered at the beginning because the call came in about 5 minutes late, but they were just running behind schedule, and the actual interview could not have been more chill (and far more interesting than my Chicago interview). It was just under 20 minutes including questions that I had. Hope this helps and good luck!!

General · How to start studying for the second time around

I just got my score for my second test as well with a 5 point increase from last year - I want to emphasise what's already been said about re-doing preptests. You'll recognise few questions here and there, but beyond the immediately recognisable ones, you'll be surprised at how challenging the test can feel even the second time around if you're keeping to strictly timed conditions. Make sure to use the analytic tools to try and identify patterns in the questions you're getting wrong, and prioritise those areas specifically in your study schedule. Definitely save the PT70+s for the last few weeks of prep when you've reviewed all the principles and are confident that you have complete comprehension of how to tackle every question. Most importantly, don't ever lose confidence in yourself along the way! You've sat the real thing once, so you know exactly what it's going to feel like on test day and for me, that knowledge helped a lot with nerves and anxiety, which I think significantly contributed to my score.

@ I scored 3 points less than my PT average, and I think it was a combination of nerves and poor timing.

With regards to continuing with BR, can I trust scores on PTs that I've already taken before? I'm concerned that I'll remember the questions, rendering the tests less of an accurate reflection.

General · Any 7Sage high scoring (170+) success stories out there?

Self-studying with just 7sage, I went from 165 (first 'cold' diagnostic) to 171 (June test) in just over two months. You can do it!

Studying for a retake

I just received my June score and while respectable, it isn't high enough for HYS so I'll be retaking in September. My biggest issue with getting back to studying is that I feel I've fully understood the core curriculum and I've now also used up the later PTs. I also worked through the LG Bible and LSAT Trainer. Drilling and BRing was my preferred strategy the first time, but I'm a little lost on how I should go forward from here. Is re-doing PTs even helpful? Any advice would be hugely appreciated!
