I am in the same boat of essay writing so take this with a grain of salt. I think you can 100% use that angle but maybe you shouldn't directly say this will make me a good lawyer. You should absolutely share those pivotal moments and show that they aren't abstract instances, but times you were put in a position where you gained knowledge of what it costs when laws meant to protect people fail or don't even exist. Using those impactful moments to show how you are uniquely positioned to understand/learn how the law can work to make sure people do not experience what you have.
The point you are making of trying to understand how people reach this point of dehumanization is very powerful and shows curiosity vs pure reaction. the angle helps to not go down the path of, i'm qualified because of this trauma. You are focusing on yourself and how it motivates you and not just a claim about the people who hold the extremist views. The topic is strong to me and if you do it tastefully you go from I confronted this ideology to I have seen what the absence of protection looks like and I want to build/defend it.
I followed the 7Sage guide on what to do a week before the test. I found this helpful because honestly I was so lost on what to do. https://7sage.com/blog/your-final-week-before-the-lsat-a-day-by-day-strategy-guide
@MichaelWright Held a “Group Therapy” Session for us August Testers the week before and it was nice to be among other anxious test takers. He gave us really great advice and answered our questions honestly. I also really focused on my sleep for the week leading up to it. In the session he talked about how sleep debt actually takes more than a night or two of good sleep to be effective. It’s so nerve racking the weeks leading to test day but with the right tools it can help your confidence.
I am so excited for this amazing opportunity! I can’t wait to get started! Thank you 7Sage ❤️
@ahsley I agree, I have never done this bad on a section. I honestly just stopped for the day after my results and now im back going over my wrong answers
Not sure if these types of suggestions are considered merch, but a timer could be cool for people who plan to take on paper, although thats a small audience. Flash cards with relevant must know terms or notebooks that are also Wrong answer journals.
Have you run out of PT's on LawHub too ? If I understand correctly, there is more PT's on LawHub than are available here on 7sage.
I do this every drill and every PT. Im trying to just go with my first answer and not go back
@LegallyLawyer If you haven’t already, you have to create an account with LSAC, then the fee waiver is processed through JD Services.
Here is the link https://www.lsac.org/lsat/register-lsat/lsat-cas-fees/fee-waiver#tiers
I believe if they don’t accept you based on your tax return you can appeal by submitting other documents but I personally only had to send my tax return. It is best if you have filed your own taxes as an independent because if you are still considered a dependent, they will request your parents information as well to have eligibility.
@KidNamedFinger Of course! Yes the LSAC one is for a year and includes a free test or two depending on the tier you get! It’s super worth it to activate before you plan on scheduling bc it has some lessons too! Best of luck :)
@Dagny take it! Treat it like a PT because you never know how its going to turn out! We got this :)
@KidNamedFinger Yes! Do you have a fee waiver through LSAC ? Im always here to help others with these processes if you ever need help let me know :)
Facts!!! I think about this every time I am in class and working on my study plan.
Wow I am truly a visual learner. The games and Lawgic with the visualization has finally gotten me to understand the topic I struggle with the most. This was a saving grace, take this whole section serious because im not even halfway through and its clicking.

@zunair I see I misunderstood that part, my bad! Either way you have a very powerful story and it sounds like you will be a great lawyer! You definitely aren't excusing it, we need more people looking into extremism. my senior thesis was about white nationalist communities online linguistics and their cultural impact!
