I covered my TV with a blanket, just FYI, as I heard that was a good thing to do. Good luck all!

Just took for second time (first in Oct). LG-LR-RC. LG not super hard except the last game killed me, couldn't even diagram and guessed my way through! Yikes, not so sure I scored higher than in Oct, but what can you do. Slight tech issue in middle,…

I find taking 2 or 3 day breaks really helpful. I think you'd probably be fine not to study at all this week, maybe just do some logic games and a couple LR questions on Friday to keep it fresh. A lot goes on in our brain while we are resting and it…

My tip is to stay calm and remember that you are scrutinizing the LSAT, it's not scrutinizing you. You have the power over it, not the other way around!

OMG. I'm laughing about the diaper, but it's actually a VERY GOOD idea. For Oct, I used the restroom right before the test but still had to go again in the last section, I think it did distract me somewhat. I know what I'll be buying this week for N…

Try contacting the author and let us know if it worked out!! I love this book, have been working with it for about 2 weeks and have an extraordinarily better grasp of LR.

I'm sorry you're going through this. This seems to be fairly common, unfortunately. I actually had 2 recommenders "ghost" me. I did find new recommenders which responded very quickly. You might want to go ahead and reach out to someone new ASAP, jus…

Nope! Hoping in the next few days. I bet we'll get e-mail on Monday.

woohoo. nice!

@"momo momo" said: Hey everyone! I got a 168 on the October LSAT (95th percentile) and I have mixed feelings. I am happy with what I was able to achieve (it's a good score) but I was wondering if any of yall think I should retake it and j…

Amazing, congratulations!!! Any tips for improving LR?

I think some schools call, then e-mail if you don't pick-up. Many schools just e-mail, and maybe fewer schools e-mail saying a decision is in the regular mail. I think you can definitely expect them to e-mail you once a decision has been made!

For the Oct test they sent out an email on a Friday (about 2 weeks + a couple days prior to exam date), saying registration would be open the following week on a Tuesday. I'm guessing the Nov registration will be open early next week so we should be…

I think it might be normal to feel like you have no idea how you did, which is how I feel. And since I'm not certain I did well, I'm assuming I bombed. I was abnormally anxious and barely finished any section except RC which felt super easy (almost …
-
First time taker and I think I really underestimated how nervous I would be. I had LG first and literally blanked for about 3 minutes while reading the prompt, couldn't even figure out how to get started. Once I calmed down a bit I got in the groove…

The writing "opens up" about a week before your scheduled test date, so you should definitely take it as soon as you can since your LSAT score won't be released until your writing is approved. Log-on to your LSAC account, click on LSAT WRITING, and …

Some Ws are calculated as Fs, so it's important to know how the Ws you're talking about are calculated. For example, I have one WU on my transcript which is a an unofficial withdrawal (I missed a lot of class time and did not attend the final). It …

Assuming you graduated from US or Canadian school. If so, LSAC specifically says not to send a transcript if the coursework was less than a year (less than 24ish credits). Copied below from their website: "Do NOT have a transcript sent from an inte…

If you do end up purchasing, which can't hurt but only help, I'd focus on Logic Games if I were you.

I believe most schools will require you to submit an addendum regarding a leave of absence from undergrad no matter what your PS topic is. You will also usually (depending on the state) have to disclose any mental illness diagnoses in the C&F pa…

As VerdantZephyr said, highly doubtful. First readers of applications spend minimum 3-5 and max 20 minutes per application. During a webinar, I heard an Admissions Dean say there have been some instances that they would need to contact an applicant …

I just did the writing! I felt better doing it before the upcoming Oct test in order to get it out of the way. I read the prompt in a few minutes, made a couple notes and then had about 25 mins to write. I wrote about 300 words and felt like that w…
-
What month are you taking the LSAT? In my opinion, forget about RC and LR for now and focus solely on Logic Games. You are likely running out of time for LG because you either aren't diagramming correctly or aren't making inferences quick enough. H…

Ditto on the above. Make sure you are fluent in lawgic translations/contrapositives. Intro to Logic, Some and Most Relationships, Invalid Argument forms/Flaw are all good sections. Also, maybe go ahead and sign up for Nov just in case
-
Have you looked at LawSchoolNumbers . com? Super helpful to look up schools and see who has been admitted with similar stats. You can also search your specific stats, see similar users and where they were accepted.

Great tips, thank you so much. October takers, we got this!

T14 medians are 168+, so from my understanding you'll have to shoot for above medians for most chances of scholarship money. Some T14 don't give merit scholarships at all. Retake if you think you can score 4+ points higher.
