I applied 8 weeks ago and have heard back from a number of schools. Some have offered generous scholarships, and their deposits are due next week. I still have not heard back from my top choice school, but I think it is likely that I'll be admitted. I am concerned however with how long the process is taking. I really don't want to spend a bunch of money on deposits especially if I get admitted into my top choice school, but I also don't want to miss out on a generous scholarship if my top choice doesn't admit me. I was thinking about reaching out to the admissions office of my top choice school and explaining the situation. Do we think this is a good/bad idea? What type of questions should I be asking them? How should I phrase them without coming off impatient or pushy? Thank you for any advice! Just the nature of the beast I guess..

Anyone working on this PT and want to BR with me?

I'm doing the flex version, timed. I typically get -0 on LG so not really looking to BR there, but if you want to I can.

My last PTs are around 170. Booked for June test, my first (and hopefully only).

Hello,

Myself and elle.sat.woods180

Are looking to add two members to our study group.

Our goal is to reach +170 scores for the 2021-2022 academic year.

The highest score I have received on the LSAT was a 167. I have scored 165 multiple times and my most recent LSAT scores have been varied from 160 to 167. I have taken approximately 80 LSAT Preptests. I only have 10 more. I took these tests in numerical order but also decided to take LSAT 89 and 88 because of their difficulty in order to prepare myself for the November/January LSAT. It did not work.

Our method of study is to pick LR/LG/RC questions/passages and blind review them. We general pick questions and passages based on their difficulty.

We are both on the East Coast but are willing to be flexible for those who are not.

Send me a direct message if you are interested in joining our group.

Thanks,

1.By blind reviewing every single question, LSAT students save a lot of time and get their target score faster than students who BR only flags questions, while the latter group of students reviews individual PT quicker and takes more PTs.

Which one of the following, if true, would best reconcile the statement above?

A. Few LSAT students have detailed knowledge of LSAT theories about the relationship between BR and score.

B. By BR every single question, LSAT students are getting a deeper understanding of the material, and reinforce their technic for questions they got right.

D. ... your variant

how do you flag questions in law hub and how many timed should do you recmmend before test day. I've scheduled 8. is that enough? I have the fundamentals in the bag, my average (untimed) is -0 RC, -2, -0 LG. Can I start taking full-pts. My main issues are seconding guessing myself and taking too long on a question and building stamina. I be sleepy!!!!

Please don't forget my answer on flagging questions

I was wondering if anyone has a list of econ and geology passages. I have a hard time parsing through these types of passages and I want to love reading them. If they have a high amount of infer/analogy questions that would be a great bonus too.

Thanks!

Edit: Jazz/blues also

First impression wise, not a bad argument, but we're looking for an AC that shows that despite the fact that broadsides had statements about morals, it doesn't mean that most 17th century people were serious about moral values.

Maybe people back then bought broadsides for other reasons unrelated to those moralizing statements. This is the loophole in our argument.

B - gives us another reason why people bought broadsides: they were drawn to the sensationalized account of crime and adultery rather than to the morals.

B shows that broadsides were also entertaining in nature, not just moralizing.

A - regardless of whether broadsides are of low or high literary quality, they were still moralizing in nature, and people still bought them, but we're still left wondering whether people bought broadsides because they cared about morals or something else.

C - gives us an irrelevant mini history lesson.

D - premise booster. Tells us what we know already, namely that broadsides were moralizing in nature, so it makes sense for the clergy to use the broadsides for moralistic purposes. But we're still left wondering whether the people actually cared about moral values or not.

E - it doesn't matter what well-educated people think or feel about broadsides but how they think about moral values. Also tells us nothing about what the remaining non-well-educated people think about morals, which means we most likely can't justify the "most" statement in the conclusion.

Are looking to add one more members to our study group. The reason you may have seen me post recently is because we are starting this study group this Sunday.

Our goal is to reach +170 scores for the 2021-2022 academic year.

The highest score I have received on the LSAT was a 167. I have scored 165 multiple times and my most recent LSAT scores have been varied from 160 to 167. I have taken approximately 80 LSAT Preptests. I only have 10 more.

Our method of study is to pick LR/LG/RC questions/passages and blind review them. We will pick questions and passages based on their difficulty. We would spend an hour or two every weekend to meet as a group and go over the questions/passages that we selected.

The most beneficial way to use a study group in my opinion is to have the members of the study group verbally present an explanation to difficult questions they answered on either their LSAT Prep Tests or had on their general study and have the other members of the group try to question the assumptions and weakness of the explanation that was provided. The actual act of trying to explain an answer will help refine our own understating of the question and the exam overall.

This is the basis that I want to have for the study group. We will improvise and adapt when necessary but I expect us to have a rigid schedule so that we can see returns for our efforts.

Send me a direct message if you are interested in joining our group.

Hey all!

My name is Rez and I'm looking for a study buddy for the June 2021 exam. I've been studying for a few months and finally seeing progress (BR 165 on the May Flex exam taken last week). My strengths include RC and LG and I'd like to improve more on LR.

I have a flexible schedule and I'd love to host a blind review session with you. If interested, please email me at: rezwan.haq@gmail.com.

Sincerely,

Rez

looking for people who want to improve on RC as much as me! We can do an RC and BR together and figure out our weaknesses and share tips on how to improve. My RC fluctuates from -5/6 to -10/12.

Hello,

I'm registered for the June Flex and probably will be registering for the August and October 21' exams as well. I work part time and have time to meet up 3 times a week. I'd like to be as consistent and as thorough as possible and try to do no less than 2 hours per meet up.

If anyone is interested, DM me and we can work out the pleasantries and details further.

Let's get'er done!!!

Hello All!

I've been working on my statements for the next cycle (2021-2022). I think I have a decent 2-page rough draft for a PS, but I would love to get feedback on it. I'm not that concerned about my grammar/spelling. Rather, I want to make sure that the tone and content are persuasive.

Of course, I'm totally willing to read your PS statement in return!

So if you're interested, just PM me with your email and I'll send it over (and send your PS too if you want me to look at it).

In case it matters, my stats are 3.9X and 17low.

Is it just me or PT1-20 RC are all over the place? I hold a study average of -5 on 60+ but start bombing on 1990's PT. 4th attempt any now my confidence is all over the place.

Hi all,

I've been struggling to wrap my head around this question (i'll post below). Can anyone explain this?

"It must be true that the lowest-numbered line on which" changes to "no lower than line". . . Why is it not that F can be lines 2 or 1?

It must be true that the lowest-numbered line on which

(A) F can be assembled is line 2

(B) G can be assembled is line 3

(C) J can be assembled is line 2

(D) K can be assembled is line 3

(E) M can be assembled is line 2

(A): Does it have to be true that F can be no lower than line 2? In other words, could F be 1st?

F could be lower than line 2! We have no rules stopping F from being 1st, and for completion’s sake—though you probably wouldn’t do this on Test Day—we’ll give you an example. F could be 1st, for example if the order were: FMGSJKH. Although there are several other possible scenarios in which F can be 1st, finding just one is sufficient to determine that this choice’s statement “could be false.”

Looking for clarity re: the curve on this one. From what I can gather (from PowerScore podcast), the curve for April's LSAT is much tougher than how the PrepTests here have been curved.

Am I staring down the barrel of a lower score than all of my PTs?
