Hello everyone!
Just curious on whether or not I should wave my right to view my letter of recommendations on my LSAC account. Does viewed LORs hold less weight to law schools than ones that are waved?
Thanks!

I attended a panel of 6 Admissions officers from law schools all over the country, they all resoundingly agreed that LOR review should be waived. It was one of very few items on which there was a clear consensus. Also, @, excellent points to further illustrate the reasons to waive.
Thank you so much for the information!

I think some admissions boards might hold waived LORs in higher regard (compared to un-waived) because they know that what was written was the honest, uninfluenced opinion of the recommender. Some recommenders (if not most) also prefer you to waive the right to view the letter because it shows that you trust them enough to write you a great LOR.
Makes sense, thank you for your input!

I constantly find myself checking my remaining time especially during RC and LC. I know this puts me at a disadvantage because i get so stressed about making sure that i have enough time to answer the remaining questions that i don't put my full effort into answering the questions right in front of me. All- in- all i feel distracted because of my constant need to watch the remaining time clock. Does anyone have any advice/tips that have helped them?
I have been studying since April started with a diagnostic of 128 and am now at a PTing at 144, anything is possible with persistence. I compared myself to everyone, that I wasn't smart enough because my diagnostic was too low, but this is all apart of my success story! If I can do it, you can do it!
YOU CAN DO THIS!!! I had a 131 diagnostic in April 2021, and now im in the low 160s, high 150s. You can do this, stay focused on the goal. This test is absolutely learnable. I honestly wanted to give up and I'm so grateful i didn't.
This post is so appreciated Cynthia. Thank you for sharing your journey, i know i really needed this! Wishing you the best!
Thank you everyone for your responses and advice, cleared up a lot for me! Good luck on apps everyone!
