I'm attending an MBA program and while my grades are not horrible, it is nowhere near my undergraduate GPA. Do law schools care about Grad school GPA? Or do I just have to make sure I don't screw up and get a C?

Anyone know when we can sign up for time slot?
I want to cancel my score using the Score Preview for First-Time Test Takers but does anyone know if this will also wipe my writing sample? I'm not keen on taking the writing portion again.

Since this is not an international flex, could i still apply for it even though I am in Asia? For example, apply for it as a U.S. regions, and then take the flex from my home in Asia? Are there any restrictions to this? My rational is that since it's online, it would be okay..?
I was thinking the same thing, I'm in Europe right now, technically should be back to Canada by August, but I don't know exactly because a lot of the flights are still getting cancelled for me, if I had an answer I would just book it and wouldn't worry about being physically in Canada by test date.
I called LSAC and they said that you have to be physically in USA/Canada. I'm wondering if anyone has had luck using VPN to change their IPO to take the test from outside the region?
I signed up for the August LSAT in USA and planned to travel there to take the test. However, due to travel restrictions and what not, it looks like I can no longer make the trip.
I thought it would be fine to take the online test from where I am in Asia but when I called LSAC, they said that I have to be in the USA-Canada region in order to take the exam.
Does anyone have experience taking the exam outside of the country that they were supposed to take it? I was thinking of using VPN to change my IPO to be based in the US, but I was wondering if anyone has any experience with it.
I'll have to travel to take the August lsat, but I'm not really sure about what will happen in regards to Covid19 during that time. Does anyone know if the Flex can be taken in a different country than the one I registered for?
@ Thank you!
If C does not occur, then A and B cannot both occur
Would the diagram look like
/C > A or B
or...
/C > /A & /B
or are those both wrong @.@ I'm so confused

Hi!
1) is invalid because it assumes the "some" statement of vanilla is definitely less than half. LSAT "some" can literealy mean 1-100%, so, while it could be true that most people (51-100%) prefer chocolate, it isn't necessarily true.
2) is valid becuase it links two most premises to a some inference. Mathematically, it means that, at minimum, 51% of people order chocolate and 51% get toppings. That means that, to satisfy both conditions, at lease one person must do both and would mean that that at least that one person gets a free hat.
3) is invalid because it assumes that both sample sizes are the same, a.k.a it confuses numbers and percentages. Yes its true that higher % of people would receive a cherry from a sundae than a split, but what if there are only 10 people ordering sundaes and 10,000 ordering splits? There could then be 100 splits with cherries, and even if everyone orders a cherry with their sundae it still isn't enough to be "more than they do with a banana split"
4) is valid because it's the opposite of 3), and correctly ignores samples size. Its conditions in the premises prove the same thing - that a higher percentage of people order cherries with sundaes than spilts, and then states that as it's conclusion.
The hardest part for me in getting good at these was learning, and internalizing, how the LSAT specifically treats "all", "most", and "some." The makers rely on a portion (a some assumption, fyi!) of test takers not knowing the logical difference and will ask questions that target that. Internalizing these differences really improved my ability to get quicker and more accurate.
Hope any of this helps!
Thanks so much for your help!
Did you keep your score for your October LSAT? I wish you luck on January!!
I started studying for the LSAT in August and back then I scored around 155. Since then I've kept studying in the time I have left over from grad school. I just took a PT in the same controlled enviornment and received a 150. I'm equally weak in all questions (I missed around 12 questions from each section) and found that I am still presssed for time and unable to complete the last page for each section. It feels like all the time I spent practicing amounted to nothing and I'm at a loss.
It's clear I'm not ready and I just found out that I can only cancel my Janurary LSAT for a measly 50 dollars. Any suggestions on what to do? I'm looking to take the LSAT at least around June but I'm not even sure if Seoul, Korea offers a June test. There is one in March, although I'm not sure if I'll be ready by then tbh.
I got these questions from: http://www.thelsattrainer.com/assets/31-lsat-vocabulary-sample-chapter.pdf
There are more sample questions here if anyone is interested
Some customers prefer vanilla to chocolate and no customer has no preference in the matter. Therefore, most customers prefer chocolate.
Most customers order chocolate ice cream, and most customers get toppings. All customers who get toppings get a free hat. So, some people who order chocolate ice cream get a free hat.
Everyone who orders a sundae gets offered a free extra cherry, and most people say yes to the free extra cherry. Some people who order the banana split get offered a free extra cherry, and less than half of those people say yes. Therefore, more customers get a free cherry with a sundae than they do with a banana split.
Everyone who orders a sundae gets offered a free extra cherry, and most people say yes to the free extra cherry. Some people who order the banana split get offered a free extra cherry, and less than half of those people say yes. So, people who order a sundae are more likely to say yes to a free extra cherry than are people who order a banana split.
Solutions
Valid: 2 & 4
Invalid: 1 & 3
Overall, I'm having difficulty mapping out the solutions with some, most, all... Thank you very much for your help in advance!
Use a VPN to change your IPO to any US city. It worked for me.
Just wanted ask if the lessons have subtitles?
Int student here. I am unable to sign up for the test yet. I've submitted every hour and it is all "It appears the time you selected is not available. Please search again."
Get through the Core Curriculum at a pace comfortable to you and take notes on the way in case you forget some key foundations such as validity, lawgic, etc. While you are doing that, drill your weakest areas like crazy. Take games you are having problems with, print multiple copies, and solve it again and again (not all the the same sitting).
Good luck my friend! You got this!
