  • Without an actual LSAT score it'd be difficult to predict your chances at law schools unless a school reports GRE medians. Undergrad GPA and LSAT score are the best, and arguably only, reliable predictors of one's general chances at any given school…
  • Yes, I absolutely agree! Same as you, just tough not to stress about each little thing to make my application stronger. At least for me, I think I will wait until mid-October. If nothing by then, send them in. Thanks for the kind words and best of l…
  • @lastminlsat My diagnostic was a 159, mainly thanks to RC (-1). When I was going through the CC (mid-April to early May), I probably studied 2-5 hours a day depending on how busy I was but also skipped the RC portion. Mid to late May I graduated a…
  • I am in about the same place as you are––just received a 173 on July and have similar GPA/academic background. Personally, I am not retaking it. This was my first LSAT, and I was PTing mid-170s consistently before the exam. I know I could have done …

  • I read them both first, though only because I know it works for me. Time is no issue for me on RC, and I don't have trouble keeping the information from both passages in my head without muddling info from the two. So doing the read 1,check, read 2, …
  • I don't think it's possible for LR problem sets, so I usually add either one or two random LR questions (from a previous PT so they appear first) to the problem set to make it 27 questions. That will make the problem set 36 minutes, and then I just …
  • I recommend making problem sets of the LR questions you've missed and doing them over. I wouldn't do it immediately after reviewing the PT or LR problem set of course, but being able to successfully do the questions a second time around (or a third …
