I believe I have almost completed my cycle for this year. And I am glad that I have secured a school that will give me a very good opportunity to start my career as a transaction lawyer.

I was able to boost my lsat score from 149 (cold diagnostic : PT no. 69) to 170+ (2016 official score).

Unlike some crappy online forums, 7sage discussion forum has been precious resource for me.

I firmly believe that this test is learnable, even for those who are not perfect with the language. (For the record, English is my second language and I started learning English at the age of 10). I guess the hardest part is not letting go of such belief.

These are the resources I found especially helpful

  1. LSAT Trainer
  2. 7sage games explanation + forum Q&A
  3. Manhattan forum Q&A
  4. INTENSE preparation and drilling ( I went over the whole PTs about 2.5~3 times, all in 5 timed sections)

There are some talented people who are able to finish preparation within short span of time. I was blessed to have them as my friends.
Yet I have to say I was not one of them and it took me more than a year to reach the point I wanted.

For those who are on the struggle bus, say June LSAT or whatever,
I know how much it sucks (I am a 3rd time LSAT taker) and I hope that you hold onto the belief that you are going to get through it.

And if there is any question let me know! Thank you!

    Congratulations and thank you for sharing. I like keeping these success stories tucked away to remind myself that it's possible, especially when I get weird looks and discouraging comments from people who don't believe that this is a learnable test. Thank you!
