So I just received my results and ended up with a 163. My gpa is a 3.1 and I've been out of school for about 2 years. Worked for a year right after graduating and then stopped working to study for my LSAT. If I apply now, is there any shot of me getting into Fordham, Brooklyn, Yeshiva, St. Johns or even Iowa (ranked high but lsat and gpa are not as competitive), or should I retake the LSAT again? This was my second time taking the LSAT. the first time i canceled my score cause my nerves on test day interfered with my ability to take the test.

yeah im also sort of having the same problem again on chrome. if you guys look above you can see that dillon advises us clear the cache in our browsers. olther than that, i dont thionk theres anything else we can do. the extra slowness may be the result of added traffic to 7sage due to nearing of the test date, but i have no idea if thats true
Hey so I tried it on chrome and it was a lot faster. dunno why, its working better and not working at all on my edge browser. thanks for the speedy responses and your help!
Yup, did that but everything is still painfully slow. I'm using Microsoft Edge as my browser tho. could that be it?
I don't know its just me but the videos arent loading at all. YouTube is playing fine and other sites are are loading without problems but these videos aren't buffering at all....
jy's youtube vid is even more confusing than the passage
thanks guys, yeah lol and def right about being on the forum. you guys have definitely given me a lot to think about. Feeling hopeless tho since i havnt seen much improvement but am seriously considering postponing and taking your advice about 7sage... it just sucks not being sure about whether or not i can make a serious jump in the next 2 months
but after all this prep is it still possible for me to improve?
if i postpone do you think it would be worth it to enroll with 7sage? if ive taken both these other courses and taken a decent amount of tests already. do you think ive plateaued or is it possible to increase? I really dont wanna waste more money on a course if i cant improve
So I've taken blueprint and testmasters courses and I've increased from 144 to a low 160. Went to testmasters first and I was testing at around 158 by then end. Started studying on my own and then my first diagnostic with blueprint was a 162. Since then, throughout the entire course, I have barely increased at all. I test anywhere from 159-163 and only hit a 166 once. I don't know what I should do. I've taken over ten practice tests and its all within that range. I usually get 18-20 right in Logic games. 20-22 right in reading comp and get around 6 to 7 wrong in each section. Is there any tightening up I can do to increase my score within the next couple weeks?
man, I eliminated A cause I thought their empirical arguments were the evidence they used... I guess that's not evidence even thought they used the word empirical....
I have a small problem with the explanation for E. The conclusion is saying that lack of sleep isn't unhealthy, and may even be beneficial. So isn't E a fault in the argument? Shouldn't the researcher have mentioned 'other negative consequences' because the conclusion is such a broad statement declaring sleep deprivation not unhealthy?
Ok i understand now why B is wrong but I still feel like E is not supported either. The question says that cabin air is completely replenished. So wouldn't that mean that carbon dioxide automatically would go down to zero or a tiny amount after every replenishment. So wouldnt a 2 hour flight in 1985 have an equal amount of carbon dioxide as a 2 hour flight today, because the air in both planes should have been replaced at the 2 hour mark
hey I want to include an addenda about my grades but i'm not sure if I should. Overall I have a 3.1; but its the worst 3.1 imaginable. Freshman year I had a 3.6 but after that I had a bunch of semesters with 2.5s or less, and some semesters with 3.3s. My grades trend downwards as I get older-- nothing consistent but def trending downward with 2.5s in my senior year
In my addendum I wanted to talk about motivation. My freshman year I was motivated to try and become a professor, but even though I got decent grades I didn't find anything interesting so I started goofing off the following years. I discovered law after graduating in May 2014 and working in a law office immediately after. Work life made me motivated to attend law school.
Is something like this worth writing in my application? I feel like I have to acknowledge the downward trend in my grades just because my grades fluctuated so much
damn, how did over 70% of ppl get this right
Honestly not sure what the actual word was. It was the passage that compared blues musicians with another g musician from another society. It was spelled weird so I just made up the closest to what I remember

Was this experimental or real?
i kind of find this explanation confusing. i get how you try and break up the argument by using the 'if' statement as the premise, and the 'then' statement as the conclusion, but why do you get to turn it into an 'otherwise' statement when Selina does not have psychic powers? Shouldn't there just be a contrapositive of the original statement?
you could do some reading comp right before. that alwasy puts me to sleep
hey just wanna let you know that i am in the exact same boat as you and am going over the test right now. my average is right around 166-168 and just ended up getting a 158 on prep 75. i dunno if it was harder but i did felt really unsure after taking it. after having gone over half of it i found that i had fallen for a bunch of the same mistakes i had drilled myself not to make. maybe its the same with you. it was just given in a different form that kind of freaked me out, and i ended up misreading things, thinking over wrong answers too intensely and wasting time, and then having to rush over questions cause i spent too much time. also the reading comp was totally fucked for me cause i did an experimental reading section and by the time i got to that glass passage my brain was dead and my 5 min buzzer rang before i even got to start reading it. dont take it too harsh. youre not alone in thinking it was hard. glad yoiu posted cause i was feeling pretty down about my score too
wait so why isnt D a possible answer? wouldn't we care about the geographical distribution of ancient pollens if thats how we were going to identify them? I was in between A and D and ended up just guessing A but, why can we eliminate D? if the data is scarce then how would we know where the anicent pollen came from, and therefore what regions the relic moved through?
