Hi community,

Two of us are planning to meet via Zoom this evening to start BR-ing PT 79. Looking for joiners. If you want to join, here is the link to a GroupMe group where I will post the Zoom link closer to the target time (9:30 PM EST):

https://groupme.com/join_group/59756531/VhuncmF5

If you don't have GroupMe, DM me here and I will send you the link that way. Maybe we will do more PTs after 79.

Happy studying!

Hi everyone ! I already applied to law schools for this cycle and I have some free time today. If anyone wants me to edit their essays please message me. I would be happy to edit a few personal statements. My limit will be 4 so message ASAP if you want me to review for content, grammar, feedback etc. This is totally free by the way.

I've been experiencing a lot of technical issues with the question bank. Regardless of how many questions I choose, only half will actually load. It's also not possible for me to choose multiple question types in LR.I tried google chrome, firefox, and safari.

Is anyone else having issues as well?

On a few of my blind reviewed sections, I have actually performed worse than my timed sections. Most of my errors are due to a lack of confidence, overthinking, or a lack of true understanding of the reasoning.

Does anyone have any thoughts/advice on the following in terms of BR?

So I wanted to know if anyone has applied through a website based application like Wash U's before. I was recently invited to interview when I apply. I am interested in Wash U's program and responded that I would like to interview but I am still waiting on my CAS fee waiver to come through. They sent me the link to their website based application and asked me to apply there. I am currently still working on my PS and DS as well as waiting on LoR's. I am a super-splitter so they, along with my resume and grad school records will be very important. The website based application however does not ask for any essays except a Why Wash U essay. Has anyone used their site based app before? Do they later e-mail you and ask for the additional materials? My inclination would be that they would expect me to send them on pretty quickly and rather than allowing me to make a good impression in the interview while I prepare the rest of the materials they might A: want to know where those materials were and why they were not ready yet or B: go ahead and process the application without them. Both of those would not be ideal for my situation.

Does anyone have experience with this want to chime in? When did they ask for the additional materials? Was there a timeline to complete the application? I am inclined to email them directly but I need to be very careful not to sound either unprepared in the email or like I am putting them off for later because I am not actually that interested.

Is there anyone in the area of Clemson/Greenville currently studying for the September LSAT who would want to form a study group? I was thinking we could pick a few PTs to take individually and then BR together, but am definitely willing to study in whichever way the group thinks is best!

I am planning on graduating spring 2021. When I fill out the "Bachelor's Degree-Granting Institution" portion on the CAS, do I fill it out with the current/anticipated GPA and major, even though I haven't technically graduated and have 2 more semesters?

Thanks!

Hi there,

Is every RC passage from PTs 1-35 used in the curriculum's problem sets? I am trying to get every bit of RC practice I can, and would love to know if anyone knows of certain passages in particular that weren't pulled for the curriculum. I've done the problem sets twice over and am looking for unused material (I've also already done every RC passage since 35 already).

i did it already but now i heard about the new core curriculum for the august test and beyond. i want to take the test after august so i will be taking the test without logic games

So i saw someone else with this idea for CC, i hope he/she doesnt mind that i am borrowing the idea.

I am currently in my PT/ intensive phase. I have already finished the CC and foolproofed games 1-35.

If anyone is interested in picking LR and RC sections from 7-50s to intensively review and speak out the underlying principles, i would love to listen and exchange ideas.

I find that, when it comes to this test everyone has strengths and things they can bring to the table, i would love to hear and try to employ yours and reciprocate if i can.

I will be studying full time come the end of this week. Comment and PM if your interested in a phone call or chat

I answered C for this question and cannot understand why C is wrong. It seems to me like it parallels the method of reasoning and the wording very closely. Can anyone help?

Also, it would be great to only have questions with access to a correction when drilling, it's very frustrating to not know why we got certain questiosn wrong...

Hi all!

I am in the process of making my list of schools that I want to apply to in the fall and came across the trend that many schools with a highly ranked health law program are not ranked as high on the overall list. I am set on pursuing a career in health law, but I was wondering how much these rankings actually mean and if I would be put at a disadvantage in finding a job if I attend a highly ranked health law specific school that is not as highly ranked when compared to other schools overall. Thank you!

Am going to attend a T3. I'm very worried about the overenrollment issue and what it might mean for my employment. Should I seriously consider deferring for a year?

I scored a 169 on the October LSAT and looking to break 170 on the January test. Reading comprehension is holding me back, and I am currently averaging around -3 – -4 on practice tests for RC. If anyone has any tips/tricks/drilling suggestions to get down to -1 – -2, please let me know!

So I have been studying for a few mmonths and just finished the core curriculum and I was wondering whether I should use all of the preptests or not. I have considered that I may have to take the LSAT a second time and was wondering whether I should leave a few of the preptests in pristine condiditon for potential later studying? for people who have taken a second LSAT what did you do and what would you recomend in studying for the first one and potentially for a second one

I keep scoring around 147-155 for PT and around 165 for blind review. For some reason just can't overcome the timing, any tips?

Does anyone have experience with taking FLEX in a hotel or other area for reasons that their place is not quiet enough to take FLEX? (hotels, etc.)

So I've applied for GWU Early decision but there is a very slim chance I get in..

I wanted to also apply for GMU, but I'm at odds whether I should apply now regular decision or Early decision but in Jan (When I find out about GWU)

I'm interesting in either forming or joining (preferably the latter) a study group for people who are both trying to get as high a score as possible and located in the Orange County, CA area. My target score is 175 and I've most recently tested in the 168-172 range. I'm planning on taking the Sept and Dec tests. I've been enrolled in the ultimate course for roughly 9 months and cancelled last December's test. Let me know if you are interested!

PrepTest 4 - Section 1 - Question 09

some of the crimes were actually non-violent but not false arrests

Hi all! Hope you're having all having a good day.

I was wondering if you could share your tips on getting better at RC. I used to have consistent -6 and started moving downwards to -10 and now scored -14 on PT 65. I was pretty confident with reading when I started LSAT but now I am a bit short on time and really concerned about getting more than half of the questions wrong.

I do timed PT then read all the passages again during BR to come up with a better LR, HR. And clearly it seems like it's not working and I'd greatly appreciate any help. :)

So the stimulus presents a paradox where sales (as measured by the value of the clothes sold) has increased one year an then Fabrico closed a store the very next year due to low demand. How can sales be up but demand fall sharply the next year? C presents a situation in which a huge increase in the price of raw materials spikes and the clothing prices spike too. (for instance, a $5 t shirt is now being sold for $15. Maybe Fabrico sold 2 t shirts and now people are only buying 1 but because the success is being measured by the value of the clothing, 1987 was a good year). It then follows that it would be unsustainable for customers to keep buying now-expensive clothes in 1988 and Fabrico would close a factory.

Hello all! I'm looking for a study buddy/accountability buddy. I wrote my first diagnostic test two years ago before I started work full time and never really looked at lsat until around April of this year. I've done a few more tests and am scoring around 161 but am aiming for 170+. I'm writing my LSAT in October and am located in Alberta!

Looking for people to study with, keeping each other accountable. My schedule is a bit more limited as I am still working full time (so evenings + weekends).

Please let me know if you'd be interested :)

Is the percentile you rank in different for every test you take ? Meaning if I get a 149 on one lsat which tells me I’m in the 39th percentile then I get a 149 on another lsat will my percentile differ ?

Do law schools look at percentiles ?

If you've taken the sample on LawHub, how did LG go? I found games 3 and 4 were a bit difficult -- were there any splits/SBGs that I may have missed or did you just plow through using rules? Any recommendations on games similar to game 3?
