This may be a dumb question, but can one school see if you've applied to another?

I will say tthis: my goal score is a 158, and I don't think I am "aiming too low." I work at a law firm currently and there is a private law school down the street from our firm that has an EXCELLENT reputation in the area (I am in Birmingham, Alabama). A 158 at this school will pretty much guarantee you're getting at LEAST a 75% scholarship, and I will be able to keep my job while working through law school. I didn't have to quit my job to study, and I have been able to maintain around my target score for PT's. I believe I will have an EXCELLENT quality of life when I am done, debt-free, with a great job as an attorney at a great firm I currently work at and KNOW the culture/quality of life thy want for their attorneys. From being in the legal field since I graduated high school, I can see that most of these "goals" people have for their life as a lawyer is not going to be exactly what they had envisioned. Working 80+ hours a week at a "fancy firm" (as I call them) where you are most definitely a "briefcase toter" for the first seven years is not my idea of a good time.
With all that said, yes, I agree you should strive for the best possible score for your particular goal. But, for me, it's only a 158. Don't let someone look down on you for having a lower score.
Now with all that said, I dropped a few tests when I had first started reaching my target area. You just have to push through and up your studying! Find out the exact problems (mine were the weird logic games that started appearing) and work to fix them. Good luck to all of you!!
I wish I would have internet-met you sooner, because I WOULD HAVE LOVED FOR YOU TO BE MY TUTOR FOR THE ENTIRE SIX MONTHS I HAVE BEEN STUDYING!!!! :)
I LOVE THIS!!!! Just re-enforced why I want to be a lawyer! Thank you so much!!
I'll say that my score has actually gone up since the more recent PT's, so don't let everyone's experience worry you!!!
i don't think its working :( :( :(
thats whats mine saying @megsvyas473 @wlamont201
I'm trying to connect!!!
was this one recorded?? cannot seem to find it -- thanks!
hey at Cumberland in Alabama (private school where I'm wanting to go) -- a 153 is the top 75th -- so you'd be above that there! :)
hellllllp i don't know how to work gotometting or googlehangout! DO I NEED TO CREATE AN ACOUNT??!!!
i'm studying to take it again LOL! no, really, i'm planning to take it again in Feb to get a higher score (I know I didn't get near what I need to get a full ride) so I'm studying with all my panic-attack-type energy... but I have no idea what I'll do while waiting for Feb's score, so I feel you -- i'm going crazy about this score and it doesn't even matter that much for me, so i could only imagine how all y'all feel!!!
love that this is on tuesday so i can do the tuesday call and then the wednesday call!!!
Will someone explain to me why all the answers are wrong and why B is correct? I know it somehow links the premise and the conclusion, it's just so over my head I cannot figure it out.
Thanks in advance!!!

super pumped -- i got so much out of last week's BR call!! looking forward to tonight's!!!
@2543.hopkins i would LOVE for you to do an article or a video or a SOMETHING on conditional logic. i've gone over JY's videos and the LSAT trainer and i cannot for the life of me figure this stuff out. I love all your comments though and you have a different way of thinking so maybe you could help!?!?! anyway, that's my request :)
me tooooo!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! @7sagestudentservices You just took a whole lot of stress away! Yay 7Sage!!!
i accidentally let my course run up -- i bought it back in the summer and re-upped it a few months ago.. and i thought i was still in but i just went to re-up it again and now it's saying i have to buy the course all over again :(
anyone know a way around this? i really don't want to let go of my 7sage family because i'm taking again in feb but i guess if i have to buy the course again i will because it's too valuable not to! i just wish if i was going to spend that money again i would have re-upped to a better course.
any suggestions!?!?
when is the next one y'all are doing? i don't have time to take that test today but would love to get in on this -- never done skype, so i might need some help there as well. i'm going to create my name right now. do y'all do any on the weekends!? thanks so much!
I've taken about 9, and just recently started taking them every weekend (I work full time during the week), and I jumped a huge amount (14 points) but now I have kind of stopped making any better and i'm getting discouraged. I need about 10 more points to get where I want to be, but this weekend was the first time I have not raised my score (even if it was just a point or two) and I'm freaking out.
I wish y'all would do a GMAT prep course!!! i'm so sad after I take my lsat I'll have to leave you for some lame GMAT course :( BUT, super excited about coming back to you for law school and bar prep!
why is the feb test like this!?!? i always wondered what yall meant by "undisclosed" and now i know and i regret everything! lol!
