Letters of rec

Am I allowed to ask a professor for a letter of rec now and then apply to law schools in the next 2-3 years? Will LSAC still keep that rec? And will that rec still be fresh for Law School Admission Officers?

Studying Help

Hi,

I’m about two weeks into the studying process, I started with the 7sage syllabus and plan on working through it until the end. Is this the most advisable way to study/learn the material? I’m aiming to take the LSAT on the June date. What else could I be doing besides what I’m doing now?

I understand this might be a stupid question, but what is the best way to diagram on the LSAT? I've just started studying Logic Games and I'm diagramming on notebook paper. Since the LSAT is administered digitally and paper isn't allowed, what should I do? I guess writing everything on screen with a mouse doesn't seem that efficient to me.

I'm currently signed up to take the February exam. I took the LSAT in October and got a 164, and I'm really hoping to get at least a 170 since this would be my third attempt, and I won't be able to take any more exams until the next cycle begins. I was studying on and off between November and December, and recently committed myself to studying full time since I graduated from college a semester early. However, I just took a practice exam and got a 164, the exact same score as my real test. On the other hand, if I were to continue studying as I am now until April, it would be taking up a lot of time I could spend on other things, like finding a job or working on applications. Is it possible to improve in such a short amount of time if I really commit to it, or would I be better off saving my last attempt for the testing cycle and buying myself a little more time?

I very recently got approved for accommodations in the form of 150% time--53 minutes/section. I have taken the test one time without extended time, and I have been studying for my upcoming test since November 2022 without that in mind either. I am seeking advice on how to adjust my studying. I don't want to "relax" too much and get slow, but I don't want to rush myself either. I was wondering, also, if any forums/blogs address this adjustment. Thanks!

why is D incorrect? In responding to the Rotelle, Sims shows that the same could be said about Rotelle's youth and inexperience when it comes to age, so isn't that thereby showing he is contradicting himself? How should one choose between D and E?

resources for LSAT writing

Hello! I was wondering if anyone had any good tips or resources regarding the writing portion of the LSAT (videos, sample essays, etc). I'm planning on doing it today or tomorrow night, but maybe I'm rushing it... any help would be appreciated!

My most recent lsat score from the October test was a 158. I am trying to get into a top 50 law school and am considering taking the April lsat to offset a waitlist that I received and to boost my odds for other schools. I'm not sure how much of a jump I'll be able to do in that time though as I work full time. Should I wait and take a later test in the summer or August to have more time to study to try to improve and then apply immediately at the beginning of next cycle? Or should I wait to hear back from all of the schools that I have applied to and go from there? I was waitlisted from my first choice. I might swap from a full time job with normal 830-5pm hours to one that is 5am-noon in order to make a better study schedule. Any advice would help!

Thank you.

If you could help me to connect with student or alumnus (or you are a student or alum) for the following schools that would be great! I just have a few simple questions that should only take 15 minutes to ask. I have connections for many schools I am applying to, but I have absolutely no connections with a few.

Priority: USC, UC Davis, U San Diego, U Colorado, Texas, U Oregon, Pepperdine, Boston College.

Less priority but still urgently looking for student/alumnus: George Washington, WUSTL, NYU, U Michigan, UVA, Northwestern.

I am a super splitter- that's why I am applying to so many. Thanks for reading and TIA for any assistance!

When learning Basic Translation Groups 1 and 2, I noticed that an example pertaining to Group 1 was worded as so:

"Where the judges are independent there will be a good legal system."

I can't seem to find the correlation with the word 'where' in this sentence and how it fits into Group 1. Can someone maybe explain why it is similar to the word group that goes with Group 1, and how it can't be with the word group for Group 2: Only, Only If, Only When, Only Where, Always, Must.

Thanks!

Hello LSAT rockstars!!

I started studying for the LSAT a week ago and am taking the April LSAT (I know, fast paced schedule). On my diagnostic I got a 158, but I am looking to climb to about a 172. Obviously with the time crunch, I want to use the course in the best way possible so I was wondering if I should follow the syllabus chronologically or if I should be jumping around to the sections I am weakest at (which for me is LR followed by RC). I would just hate to let a month of prep go by without using the course most effectively. Also any additional tips for someone just starting out would be wonderful, thanks!

It's unclear to me why D assists in weakening the argument? Isn't the argument that efforts have not worked to have people recycle plastics? If so, how does it weaken the authors argument that recycling methods have improved for non-plastics? Very confused. TIA

Any tips for me

Hey guys . I hope you are well.

I am an international examiner and this is just 7 months which I started to learn English.

I have conquered LG ( -1/-2 per section timely )

I score 16/17 from 25 in LR timely ( -4/-5 after BR )

And I have just started working on RC . You know for strengthening my reading skill I read books in English and now I can solve almost all of the RC's questions(at least of medium passages ) untimely and I fear what will be the results on time condition!

For now what is your recommendation for getting better on LR or RC by knowing that I will register for Aprill or June and I wanna apply for 2024 and my international GPA is 3.4 and I need a full-ride scholarship and so better ranked school is more interesting and I wanna show my best on Lsat!

Best wishes !

Need some advice

Hi everyone,

I’m planning on taking the Feb LSAT and my score goal is 160-165. I have been feeling so down after finding out my score in October which was 140. I‘ve been studying on and off for the last few months and hasn’t been doing so well in PT. This has been making me feel even more bad about myself. Any advice about what I should do would be greatly appreciated.
