Hi Sami, thanks for writing this----would be absolutely helpful for other students.
Quick question---
did the doctor study for the test while working full-time?
How did he manage to the family pressure? Have you heard anything about it?
Thanks again,
lol
Can't believe they changed their minds in one night...
Started to talk about "You have already done so much, you cannot do anymore, if you could, you could have already done that by now...etc" AGAIN.
Agh...
Just read Sami's thread and feel like really wanna withdraw this test but I also feel maybe I reached ceiling or smt...even if I could manage to withdraw it I'm not sure I can endure the family pressure......
Wonder how the doctor managed it. Agh...
@
Yeah, at least I think they would not mind if I take 2nd or 3rd test now...I think. But actually they still insist to take the Dec. test and show a result...but well, that's good for now...I guess. (at least I do not have to give up my dream completely?)
Yeah, right. That's what I thought too actually, everyday some people get fired---it's just sounds like he is trying to scare me and maybe he alarms---be prepared lol
Anyways thanks for the advice, man :)
@ I want to get experience , what it is or how i feel in the exam hall.....
Kind of one of the reasons that I'm thinking to take Dec. test too...
@
You're right Sami,
I know they do luv me and I luv them so much too, and I understand the reason they said that is bc they care about me...
I guess I just said that to express how serious they could get mad...but I also understand they will get mad because they're worried about me.
Well I still have a few days to think about what to do so...yeah I'll try to make the best choice. Thanks :)
@
Yeah I know---and I guess I assumed too much on this, I know they are just worried about me.
And yeah thanks, they actually said any law school is fine but after the talk we had yesterday it seemed they changed a bit...like, "any" is actually not that fine...at all.
(but you know, it's kind of true if you don't have the ability, even if you get into a good law school you might not be able to find a job or may get fired after a few years...all kind of depends on your skill...no?---I heard from a lawyer and he said everyday some people get fired in his work place. small sample size, I know.)
@
right but...I tried everything people say above but it did not work...if I insist it would just make them really angry. (like, "never contact us" level)
What should I do/say then? That's why I kinda made a thread here...
How did you talk to your parents on your third take?
Thank you both.
I talked with my parents again and it seems they will allow me to take 2nd take but for Dec...I kinda have to take it. They did not mention that directly but the atmosphere was a bit different...although it could change later.
I kinda have to take Dec test cuz otherwise they will get super angry and I don't really want to break our relationships nor make them angry...it'd be really bad for their health too.
So...yeah, but thanks for all of your advice!
Hey guys, thanks again---
I could not persuade then about Dec. test, but well---
I think I want to take the 2nd take depending on the score I get on Dec.
I heard they have read a few books about law school application process...so I think they should know the fact that LSAT score is very important in the app process. But...I already postponed the test day twice, so I think that's kind of why they think I should just take the Dec. test and accept the score I get.
But I mean---thanks again for the warm comments.
Honestly I do actually feel depressed a bit (and it's right before the actual test) cuz I did not see much improvement on LR and I feel I need some more practice on RC...all I have been doing these days is just reviewing cuz I'm kinda afraid to do a new PT and see bad score.
But will try to believe myself on the test day---
I did try my best and have done so much work so...gotta give myself some credit for that.
Thank you all of your insights---
I actually have already tried all of them you suggested except showing the data.
Maybe I can do that----but I'm not sure, I was told if I cannot get a decent score on Dec. test, I should just give up---it's not your thing etc.
They have a point too, I think, so...I don't know. Maybe I should give a shot on Dec. and accept whatever score I get...and see if I still can pursue my dream...
@
I haven't thought about how environments are important, thanks for bringing it up.
Do you think presents can work? Or would it be seen as...some sort of bribery?
Hey,
This might not be appropriate to ask here but...
How to explain to them if you want to take another test/extend the test?
I have already postpone my June, September test actually and I explained to them all of the advice here and I also explained the score remains for 5 yrs and how important the score is etc.
But it seems like I cannot convince them anymore about postpone so I am kind of pushed to take the test.
I told them that if I cannot get the score that I want, I want to work&study for another take, but they said it is impossible.
I understand what they say too and because they are not as young as my friends' parents, I also feel like maybe I should give up if I do not get a decent score on December and support them instead of pursuing my selfish dream.
I am going to take the December test but...if possible I hope I can take 2nd or even 3rd test if the score is not good. In that case how should I explain to them? Saying nothing is actually not an option because we share our stories basically.
I feel really bad since they have supported me a lot so far...and not sure what to do now.
The best is to get a decent score on December test, but from my PT scores...especially the one on PT79, I'm not sure...
What would do/say?
Sorry for the unorganized sentences...appreciate any thoughts.
Thanks
@
Oh wow...Do you mean you did every questions from 1-38?
How do you think 79 and those PTs are different?
@
Thanks for the info.
In that case I might need to take another stay...I don't know...
@
What are some oldies do you recall from older PTs?
Evaluation, vocab,...what else?
I think sometimes they disagree each other in both premise and conclusion, (different premises and lead to opposite conclusions)
and sometimes they only disagree with either premise or conclusion. (arrive at the same conclusion using different premises or using the same premise but arrive at the different conclusion)
When they have opposite conclusions and different premises, the question can really ask either about premise and concision discrepancy right?
For example, PT79S4Q20.
They disagree with both premises conclusions right?
The conclusions are implied---For Edgar, the conclusion is do NOT shutdown, but for Rafaela, DO shutdown.
example; PT79S4Q5
So they are disagreeing each other about what value means: property value vs. value itself has (not necessarily property value)
Is this correct?
I thought it's so rare that they start to ask those questions again...at some point I think they stopped to ask a vocab question.
Do you think they start to incorporate old questions again?
Hello,
I was wondering which is better in terms of:
-sleep well
-no anxiety on the test day
Is it better to stay in a hotel close to the test center for a day or two, or commute from home?
What are you going to do?
Thanks,
I heard it is usally earlier than officially announced.
When do ppl usually get score back?
Is the session already started? THere is no sound...
@
I had 3 LRs and one of them did have many disagree Qs.
Hated those questions...
not sure which LR is experiment&hoped the one with those disagree Q was the experiment but sounds like it's not.
So sounds like RC was easy for everyone...
I couldn't sleep well last night and kind of run out of time..shoot.
Was the brain scan passage easy as others too?
@
Thanks for sharing your experience...and sorry to hear what happened.
Do you know why that happened? some students got late? I thought if we are late we are just not allowed to take the test...
I was just wondering...
So is there a sample of writing section?
There is explanation for LG, RC, LR, but I dont see any writing sample...
I know it does not matter, but it's still part of the test so...
@
Thanks. So we can enter the building and I guess we check in in front of the test room or smt right...so we can use bathroom aft entering the building but once enter the test room, we cannot use it.
This is my 1st take so...it's so basic question but thanks.
Do you know how long the explanation bfr the test lasts? like 15 minutes and then start? It seems it depends on test center I heard...
Thanks @.rizeq
So wait...I heard we cannot use the bathroom once we check in, right?
But we can still use the bathroom after entering the building?(test center?
Hi, edited title and re-use it since it seems we can only post two threads:
My new question is...
What do you wear on the test day?
Would it be too warm in the test center due to the heater?
I'm thinking to wear something casual...like, really casual...
Anyone doing similar or will you wear formal such as suits etc.?
Original post:
It means we need to arrive at the test center by 8:30am right?
Or should we arrive at the test center at 30 min earlier to do those procedures?
Thanks
I don't understand...so Dec. test is harder? But they have this curve, so it won't matter, right?
@
I sincerely hope so...
It was raining yesterday and the day before that and my room was pretty cold.
I did not go out for a couple of days cuz I dont want to catch a cold but...
Should I go walk a bit? Or it just makes it worse?
I'm afraid I cannot fall asleep the day before the test day but don't want to make the cold worse neither.
Hi additional question...must the water be about 500ml? and 1 only?
Can we bring both water bottle and some kind of small size packed drink?
Thank you...I guess I need some more sleep, only slept for 5 hours these days (wanted to sleep more but just couldnt...for some reason I just wake up)
Reall hope this cold is gone by tomorrow...
My body feels hot and heavy...had vitamin C a lot, but not sure it works.
Should I have some cold medicine? I heard it can worsen the symptoms...
Anyone took the test while being sick? How was it...could not do well at all?
Should I do some jogging? Or it just makes things worse...
Glad that I asked...thanks.
Thanks, just wanted to make sure.
So only pencil, eraser, highlighter, sharpner, water, watch...are allowed on the desk correct?
