Harvard Law -- Thanks 7Sage!

I was admitted to Harvard today. Just wanted to thank 7Sage for the wonderful work they're doing here! I come from a working class family and would not have been able to afford LSAT prep, much less one as great as this, without 7Sage.

To my fellow 7Sagers: Hard work pays off. Keep studying!

Cheers!

    Thanks everyone!

    Harvard has always been a dream school for me.

    Today was the first round of acceptances for the cycle.

    Update:

    I have also been accepted to Yale Law.

    Thanks again!

    @gs556 Yale and Harvard? Part of me hates you right now! Kidding, I'm happy for you. Huge congrats to you, haha!
    If you don't mind my asking, for how long did you study? I'm about 5 months in and barely scoring in the 155+ range (from a horrid 137 PT). Harvard is also my target school.
    Best of luck to you!

    Thank you! I studied approximately 6-months.

    Congratulations @gs556 !!! I'm about to start a six-month study journey too, what would you recommend I do in terms of scheduling? I'm not quite sure where to start, and I'd love to ask about which books you used as well :)

    Go to Harvard!!! Forget Yale, unless you want to be an academic. If you want to become a partner at a top law firm, you can't beat Harvard. Good luck!

    @gs556 That's great! Again, congrats! I may end up taking the October test...I doubt I'll get my score to 172+ by June (I'm assuming it's an automatic rejection from Harvard unless your score is in the 170 range).
    Wishing you the best.

    I didn't have any books; just 7Sage and +50 practice tests. I took my time working through the complete 7Sage curriculum and, upon completion, worked through 3 practice tests a week. I would blind review my PTs on days in-between completing them. On my blind review days I would also return to the 7Sage curriculum if there was anything specific I wanted to review because I still hadn't mastered it. Good luck!

    I didn't use any consultants (couldn't afford any). I did share my essays with a few of my close friends. They gave me feedback and worked as my sounding board.

    @"Nicole Hopkins" I think it was 159

    159, correct.

    I'm curious is it possible to get any type of non-financial need based scholarships at these schools? If you have a decent GPA and incredible LSAT score for example?

    HYS do not give merit aid.
  • J.H. SongJ.H. Song Alum Member
    201 karma
    @Sheri123 Like Pacifico said, HYS only gives need-based aid. This is a big reason why some HYS admits with 175+ LSATS will choose CCN. CCN near-full ride is very tempting vs. HYS full cost.
  • Sheri123Sheri123 Alum Member

    @"J.H. Song" what is CCN? I don't think I've heard of it. Thanks
  • gs556gs556 Member Inactive Sage

    CCN: Columbia, Chicago, NYU. They are the three highest ranked schools outside of HYS.

    Not to hijack this thread, but I was also admitted to Harvard earlier this week. I want to thank 7sage (and gs556 for interview tips!) for the wonderful LSAT prep program. I could not have improved my LSAT enough without the excellent curriculum offered here. Thank you!!
