Hi,
When we forward transcript online, it requires our LSAC account #, but I may put the number wrongly...
What would happen?
I think I skipped the first letter thinking only the number is the account ID.
Would they still proceed my transcript or would they actually transfer it to someone's account?
I cannot call them as my phone is broken now...so worried about this.
Anyone knows something about this?
Thank you
Hi,
I heard if you want to re-apply the same school you should re-write your essays, but what about LOR?
Can we use the same letters?
Thank you in advance,
@staciaglee275
I see...thanks for your answers!
I did not expect it is this costly so I guess I'll have to choose school carefully...
@staciaglee275
Thank you,
It really sounds constly...
By the way, can my school send electric copy of transcript along with the transcript form?
Or those should be mailed to LSAC?
I thought if we could send electric version, it will save time?
thanks for your reply.
I'm still not sure how it works...it says for each school it costs $30.
So this is in addition to the $175 (for making CAS) and application fee each school requires right?

Hello, I have a question about the system...
Where is the transcript requesting form?
I registered my schools, but I do not see the forms.
Also, it says it takes about 2 weeks to proceed...what if it will not be done by the deadlines of school application?
How long did it take for you?
It requires my signiture, so can I just type or do I have to print it and mail to my college? (I cannot attach it to email when I ask my institution when forwarding transcript?)
Thank you for the help in advance.

Thanks, so Berkeley prefers not having students who have relatives in school right?
I heard they may prefer to have "network" so it would be better to have students who have some relations to the school, but I guess it's not like that?
For example, do you have family member working as stuff at XX law school etc...
why do they ask this?
If they do have, does this mean it affects them negatively or positively?
I'm just curious...
Thank you in advance!!
do you see the ranking or specialization?
Within what rank is acceptable?
Such as...within 100, 50, etc.
If below this ranking should I wait for another cycle?
When we write why X school essay, can we actually re-use most of the part and just change a few sentences according to school?
If I am going to use the same test score, which is better, submit application right before the deadline or wait for another cycle? (not sure I can wait, though...)
Would they keep my application for next cycle? What if I want to apply the same school when I get rejected this cycle?
What if they do not list diversity statement? Can we still submit it or should we avoid it since it is additional pages for them to read?
Will optional statement be diverse statement or can we write both optional statement and diversity statement?
Hello everyone,
I was just wondering,
When is usually the last day when we receive notice from schools that we apply?
School starts on August, right?
Will we be able to find out all results by April?
Or can some results arrive on May and after?
Thank you!
@lawschoolstuff16866
Thanks for your advice! :D
@danielznelson160
Thanks! I'll do some research and hopefully can come up with good questions...
btw if we want to sit in class, can we just sit for about 15 min or we need to stay till the end?
I am thinking to visit at least 2 schools a day (or is it too much?) so...
@gregoryalexanderdevine723, @jennilynn89537, @lawschoolstuff16866, @danielznelson160, @jennilynn89537
Thank you so much for your insights!
Your comments made me want to visit schools now.
So I'm starting to think about which schools to visit and what questions to ask...
I do not have my LSAT score with me so actually I don't know where I am now (which school I can apply etc.)
How should I decide which school to visit? Since it takes time, money, effort...I think I would like to choose wisely. Or just the ones I'm interested even though it might be too challenging after I find out my score or just somewhere close to where I live?
Have any of you visited schools in different states?
And...if you have questions that you think is good to ask, could you share with us?
I intend to search around the websites but I just really want to avoid silly questions...
@jennilynn89537
Thanks!
Did you make an appointment before you visit them? by email or phone or...or can we just walk-in and ask them questions?
@danielznelson160
Thanks!
I thought it can negatively influence my application if I ask silly questions...
So why X law school statement may be stronger than general PS I guess?
Hello, would like to hear from other students as well...
So I'm thinking to visit the schools that I would like to apply.
Would it be helpful to talk to admission people there or can it actually hurt?
I do not want to give negative images and thought if so I would rather not visiting them...
In which case it can hurt application and in which case it can be helpful?
What questions would you ask them and what questions would you avoid?
Thank you!
1. I think I would like to talk about my diversity aspect in my personal statement.
In that case, what can I write for diversity statement?
Can there be any overlap or any overlap should be avoided? (such as touching a little in personal statement and talk in detail in diversity statement)
Would challenge&overcome story work for diversity statement?
I would like to hear some subjects and themes that I can use to write diversity statement.
2. Would it be helpful to talk to admission people or can it actually hurt?
I do not want to give negative images and thought if so I would rather not visiting them...
In which case it can hurt application and in which case it can be helpful?
What questions would you ask them and what questions would you avoid?
3. Are law school booklets helpful in knowing the schools or they do not have much info? When I checked their websites there are so much info and I kind of got lost...especially where to pay attention to (such as for writing why X school essay)
Thanks!
@olineali684
Thanks,
Yeah I will talk to her first and if she does not change I guess I have to move out or find a hotel then...thanks for the advice!
@vgavryushenko256.gavryushenko
It does not say...
She also does not show me the contract she had with the landlord so...
I'm afraid this continues to happen and especially the day before the test...
I cannot sleep well with earplug and even when I tried it sometimes I can hear their conversation.
@jhaldy10325
I see...:(
Sounds like he is going to stay more than 2 weeks cuz she said he has business in this city.
How should I tell her if he is going to stay more than 2 weeks?
...."Can you pay the rent?"
Feel really stressful...
They chat in the living room and I cannot sleep well.
She does not let me know in advance even though I asked her so many times.
How should I tell her?
After she invite a frined A then she invited a friend B...and it's a male this time. He has already been here for a week and before that he stayed on Friday. Sat. Sun...
Is this normal???
I told her I'm studying for LSAT but...
Sorry not related to lSAT question :(
Hi
I thought if there is no cause, then no effect can be true and can strengthen an argument.
then I met this question...PT65.S1.Q15.
From the correct answer it seems it suggests even though there is no such a cause, an effect can happen and thus the argument is a flaw.
So...no cause, then no effect does not actually always be true??
Why in one case it can be a strengthener and in another case it is a flaw...
Hey @gregoryalexanderdevine723 @476.rizeq
I just graduated actually...
And I am still waiting for a reply from 2 profs whom I asked but...not sure.
What I am thinking is getting one from the 1st prof...who may decline depending on our discussion and from 1 from whom I worked with...
But I dont know...how should I talk with the 1st prof?? Cannot mess up this time...
