@shanedrider no, I don't think it's necessary to account for that gap in your resume. You might be asked during an interview though what you did during that time.
-
Yup I did this, took off about 6 months to study full time. I don't think it matters much, you just have to be able to account for what you were doing with your time - and deciding to study full time is not some kind of indicator that you are an inf…

@"Alex Divine" can't wait to see you on campus!! we start orientation on Wednesday...
-
@BruiserWoods I'm there this Saturday if it's happening!
-
@BruiserWoods invite me too!!
-
yeah it was long overdue! @"Nicole Hopkins" forgot to tag you earlier

I love Trello! I use it for everything really, but it was especially helpful for LSAT studying and law school applications. I feel that I only use it in a basic way though, if anyone has favorite features I would love to hear how you use it.
-
This is great too, and a solid counterpoint to the one I was making: @runiggyrun said: @Pacifico's example is excellent - without having to be non-white or economically disadvantaged, being military/military spouse, a parent and substantially old…

I did the Trainer first because I knew about it before 7Sage, but overall they are so complimentary to each other that I don't think the order matters too much. I suggest using 7Sage for a more comprehensive LG intro, and then looking at the LG sect…

@Alejandro please add me to the email about times, not sure I can make it but I would like to be in the loop!

@"Maxine Peskens" question for you: are you a middle class straight white woman? If so, tread carefully with the DS, unless it is required for your application. I don't know your demographics, or if you have more ties to majority culture vs. other c…

Yess!! Please do the webinar, you have so much wisdom to pass on! Get it!!
-
If you're having issues, you probably have an imprecise understanding of what the task of the question type is - as @MrSamIam said, review the CC for NA and then if you are still having trouble, let us know.
-
The group is still pretty new and largely unstructured, I believe @Alejandro is the natural leader though. We can make it what people want/need so throw ideas out there!
-
@ama.kpegba one thing you can do is increase your exposure to reading dense materials by reading sources like the Economist, doing that every day can help but it's a long road to actually increase your reading speed.
-
Yeah, that's totally realistic, but you will need to master that section. You can do it, but it takes time! I got -4 on my administration, which was largely due to the third game (December 2015) which was irregular. Most people who score high get th…
-
@Shahbanou it might be helpful for you to get someone else's eyes on your work - can you pull some of these specific games and have someone (study buddy) watch your work?
-
@"Ron Swanson" lol maybe we should grab a drink + pizza together post LSAT for you! @"Cant Get Right" yeah it so important at that phase, you're battling for every correct answer and each right or wrong choice weighs in so heavily on your ultimate s…
-
One thing I really liked with the Trainer is Mike Kim's way of representing subsets on the board when they come up. JY doesn't have a similar method. That is really the only addition to 7Sage from the Trainer that I made, but I agree in general with…
-
There is so much to be said about this process, I encourage you to do some online research and potentially hire a consultant if getting scholarship funds is a priority for you. Sometimes you can haggle, but you need leverage (such as a better offer …
-
That's a score to be seriously proud of. And since you're still climbing, I have faith you can hit that 170+ range!!
-
As much as possible, you should simulate the test day environment by taking PTs in the morning after you've been up for a few hours. Lots of people who take PTs in the afternoon (the worst time!) or evening deal with fatigue issues that you wouldn't…
-
Fantastic!! Good to hear you're shooting for Sept, but maintaining some flexibility in case you aren't where you need to be. You can get there, it's just a question of how quickly. On games - if you haven't started the bundle (is this what you meant…
-
Hmm okay, that experience with the diagnostic makes it pretty hard to judge how much of a gap you have to close. It seems like you don't have reliable data, but even assuming you're starting from a baseline in the low 150s, I would really recommend …
-
I'll be at at the BPL in Copley Square 12-2pm on Saturday for a tutoring session already... so if anyone else is interested in LSATing in that beautiful courtyard, I'll be there!
-
@nader.parham I mean taking fresh PTs with games you haven't seen before, that's how you build on what the bundle teaches you. But you could also just take the LG section from a fresh PT if you are crunched for time or can't take full PTs right now …
-
So (if you don't mind me asking), what was your diagnostic? Glad to hear things are progressing well with your studies!
-
Hey @TheCubicleEscapee sounds like a great plan with the limited time you have for studying. Can you let us know more about your goals? Shooting for Sept when you're just now finishing the CC is very ambitious, since you'll really hone your skills i…
-
Hey I would love to pop in on this group if it gets off the ground, hopefully I could be of some help! Anyone who is making an interest list, keep me updated!
-
Thanks @montaha.rizeq glad you found it helpful!
