I hope everyone is keeping their heads up in these times.
I got waitlisted and would like to send an updated resume. Since I finished the LSAT, I have been learning the Russian language. I know Arabic, Hebrew and conversational Spanish and I chose Russian because I love the language and have always wanted to learn it. I also know that being a multi-lingual lawyer can only be a competitive plus. Does anyone know how I can go about sending an 'updated resume'?
This is what I have so far but it feels so bland. Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you everyone.
Dear Admissions Committee,
Thank you for reviewing my application for admission to XX School of Law. Since completing the LSAT, I have been teaching myself the Russian language. A multi-lingual lawyer is indispensable and learning Russian can only open more doors of opportunity for myself and put me at a competitive edge.
Furthermore, I would like to express my continued interest in the school of law.
Sincerely,
XX
Sorry if this sounds pedantic. I know how to 'email' but I mean what should I say specifically?
Hello,
I submitted an application to X law school on X date and would like the attached PDF to be included in my application file.
Please let me know if this is okay.
Thank you.
Hi everyone. I applied to law schools and realized I needed to also submit an addendum. Anyone have any suggestions how to email the school and ask to add the attached file to my application file?
CAN Someone help me? Having RAM issues and ProctorU is not helping. Test is in 30 MINUTES #help #admin
Last LSAT I took was a nightmare with my proctor. I made sure to tell my proctor that I am home alone, that I left my turned-ff phone in another room, and kindly requested I not get interrupted during the exam. I basically wanted to do what I could to avoid a horror story.
My proctor only chatted with me–I did not think anything of it.
During LG, she couldn't see my chin so she messaged me. I had a flashing box on the lower-right hand corner of my screen and had to click on it to open it. I adjusted my face and continued writing on my scrap paper. A second later I got another flashing and her message was a thank you. Again, I got interrupted and had to X-out of the chat box. At this point I got annoyed but contained myself and continued working. Then I got a smiley face! I shouted, "please stop interrupting me!" I might have been rude but at that point she threw me off focus for silly things and I made sure I was clear at the start to avoid interruptions.
I apologized at the end of the exam but I did not need 'thank you's' and smiley faces during my LSAT.
If I get another proctor who wants to just 'chat', can I request a different proctor? Maybe I am being a bit over but I really do not want to get thrown off my game again. Then again I heard of proctor's that forgot to mute themselves. >.((/p)
Any advice would be appreciated.
My takeaway: Keep your chin up.
Thank you! I am going to try and implement this strategy. Knowing that they tend to be weaker is a good tip as well. Thanks :smiley:
Hi everyone,
I am not taking anymore PTs so I do not get burnt out but would like to continue doing sections and BRing. I heard that LSAC will be using 'older' non-disclosed LSATs but does anyone which PTs would be most similar to January expectations?
I also remember the Powerscore podcast from November making predictions but not sure if they are applicable to January.
Good luck to everyone and thank you 7sagers.
I have made strides with RC but have noticed that the Qs I am missing are all inference Qs. What should I do differently to tackle inference Qs? Are the AC's typically weaker since we are making inferences?
Any advice would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I had the same thing happen to me. I did very well on LG on this PT and apparently this PT is notorious for LG being difficult. My highest PT was on this from PT88.
RC is usually my weakest link.
thank you for your insightful response @nanabillan818 I sure hope so because with people being home and some having a huge advantage for being able to study more, being home F/T with my toddler makes quite the challenge.
Hi everyone.
I understand this is an incredibly competitive cycle but does anyone know if this is the case for P/T programs as well? I get that people are working from home and it makes it much easier for a student to study for the LSAT-hence all the score spikes, but honestly it is much harder for me to be able to study as a mother to a toddler. I am a part-time applicant for that reason and so I am wondering if anyone has any insight.
Thank you and best of luck with everyone studying/waiting for schools to respond!
HAHA that is me as well, except my right hand is over my heart focusing on breathing
Call LSAC tomorrow morning. Email them now as well. I hope everything will be okay with you.
Flex:
RC-LG-LR
Having RC first made the entire test feel like 24 hours. RC was pretty average I guess. LG was decent except for the last game. It took me a while to come up with a setup and had to make educated guesses on some of the Qs for the last game.
LR was a breeze until about Q15 and then they started to increase substantially in difficulty.
ProctorU:
Last time I took the flex I had 0 issues.
My proctor interrupted me the first time bc my chin was close to my chest as I was writing. I exit the chat box only to have it jumping on my screen again because she said 'thank you'. I made sure to take the time before the exam started to express how appreciative I would be if I would not get interrupted (as I have read some stories) and expressed how every second counts.) I already had a gut feeling she would be popping in..... and then halfway through LR, my exam DISAPPEARED. I tried going back, nothing. I start talking to the proctor asking her to pause the time till we get it figured out and she said she cant pause it. 3.5 minutes later I was back and contained my composure.
I have no idea how it went now that I think about it.
What I do know is that I feel like collapsing right about now.
Of course! Make sure your webcam is in a place that allows your face to be visible the whole time. I would try to declutter as much as you can so they don't hold you up.
Good luck!
