  • I am not applying to U of H right now. South Texas has Spring enrollment and that's what I'm working on now.
  • @Petrichor said: ~85-95F Brrrrrr..... *waves* from SE Texas. I use them and no melting yet. I've left my backpack in my car where, in the summer, the temp can get up to 150 or so pretty quickly. I'm guessing old or maybe exposed to moisture....
  • @lsatblitz said: I took 4 days off last week, but I haven't been able to get back on the groove I was on before taking the break. Change something.. maybe rearrange your desk... heck maybe move your desk... buy some marshmellowy cereal you loved a…
  • It is a sad state of affairs when it comes to Public Defenders... Harris County, the largest county in Texas by population (third most populated in the country), only has a fledgling Public Defenders office and Galveston County still has none.... J…
  • @nicole.hopkins said: not advised to get LOR's from anyone who does not know you well Not advised doesn't mean can't be done and done well in a pinch. I see your point, though. ^.^ Lol. I got a stellar recommendation from a professor I constan…
  • I write everything in pencil, notes for school, messages to myself...everything...I use the Black Ticonderogas. I tried around school supply season to go with cutesy decorated pencils and just hated everything about them... +1 for Black Ticonderoga…
  • @sarkisp23 said: I would love to take a week off, but I'm writing in Oct All the more reason to get in a good break now. You need time to recover and refocus. Sleep for a day or three and get back at it. If you don't take care of your mental heal…
  • I'd ask the grad student but (if allowed) submit a third letter from a professor. It really is about quality.... but my worry would be that being a grad student yourself a letter from another grad student might just come across as a friend who wrote…
  • Still recovering from my last burnout.... I know the moment my brain broke. It was in that on campus class I was (emphasis on was) taking when I heard the professor say "Don't read the reading comprehension passages." My brain *clicked*..There may h…
  • I was so happy to see this post. I have been prepping since May and often have REALLY bad days... On top of the Oct 3rd test I have an application due Oct. 1st.... I am stressed out and depressed and my husband says that others in my situation are f…
  • Thank you so much. That is exactly what I was asking. My PS is super strong and says as much about my illness as I'd like to disclose.
  • Ok...I am talking to myself now but maybe someone will come along and help with my issue. Maybe, instead of a Disability Statement I can use my disability in a Diversity Statement....I do not show any outward signs of being disabled and have by far …
  • I do not have any legal stuff to disclose in Character and Fitness... Not even a speeding ticket....I look at it now and I may need to go ahead and write the Disability Addenda since two required documents will lean heavily on my disability.....
  • No, I can't move from my area so I am limited to South Texas, U of H, and TSU. I had a drastic medical diagnosis and I left (without dropping) an entire semester like 10 years ago in community college. Actually, I think I was put on academic suspici…
  • Part of the RC curriculum is "don't read the stimulus." I know much of what we learn from LSAT Prep is a bit counterintuitive, but scanning and then searching out each answer is just....bad advice. Last night I read something cute about LSAT prep…
  • Listening to the clueless professor was like nails on chalkboard for three hours.... He had to work the LG backwards and refused to let ANYONE talk/help due to "time constraints". I'm glad I got a huge discount because I graduated for a sister schoo…
  • The PS books are great for banging your head against when information....just....won't....stick....
  • If you have the proctor on your phone, right under where you select 4 or 5 sections it will say "change voice".
  • Bruce's 5 minute warning makes me jump. :{
  • Cute ^.^ Me and my Personal Statement: http://legallydrawn.com/comics/2011/6/5/we-all-know-lawyers-with-eed-excessive-editing-disorder.html
  • *raises hand* Testing in a month so....what else am I going to do.
  • @nicole.hopkins said: Do you plan on getting a full scholarship with COL covered somewhere or working for Legal Aid etc. to get loan forgiveness after 10 years? Just curious about the economics of your plan; such things are possible but require st…
  • *waves* Me.
  • Civil Rights/Constitutional law. I want to eradicate the racial disparities that pollute our criminal justice system. I plan on handling criminal defense of indigent clients for my heart, and wills and probate for my pocket book.
  • @mpits001 said: My school implemented a new system last year. It deals with a class that meets once a week (not graded and doesn't have any additional assignments) and it teaches us how to outline, when to study, how to study for essay vs. multiple…
  • Is it advisable to pretty much skip context? I've noticed (I'm still new) that on the MMS and MBT questions now that I can quickly recognize the context I am getting more correct as well as noticed decrease in total time I spent on questions. But I …
  • @sbammes said: 36 here. My son will be starting college the year I start law school, if all goes as planned. Ill be 37 in November, and my oldest is graduating High School this next year.....
  • @nicole.hopkins said: But it's ok if you don't wanna hang out with us *sniff* ^.^ Too Cute!
  • My perspective come from seeing a psychiatrist every 3 months and primary care physician, regularly. I understand that many people do not have this luxury. Here is a link for adult ADD symptoms: http://www.webmd.com/add-adhd/guide/10-symptoms-adult-…
