At least you guys are just waiting for a score. I feel like waiting for replies from schools is even worse!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
-
@"Alex Divine" Yeah, I know. But, even if they see all my stuff there really isn't much to see, IMO. But, if they think otherwise that any normal 27 year old male doesn't enjoy live music, fine bourbon and posting too many pictures of his dog, they …
-
All my stuff is on private so there's really not much they can find. Plus, I don't really have anything crazy on my social media pages either. If they feel the need to ding me for something they find on my social media page then it isn't really some…

@orangebeer I think it just depends on your proctor. Mine was pretty nice about stuff so I didn't have any issues. She was mostly just watching the clock during the exam, she didn't really stare at me or I wasn't paying attention if she was becaus…

I took the test accommodated in September. If you have questions, feel free to ask! I got 53 min/ section, took the 5 section exam like everyone else and took it in a room separate from other test takers (It was literally just the proctor and I)

Wooooooo

-13/-14. They gave 71 a -14 curve and I didn't even feel it was that difficult. 79 felt like they took the RC of 78 and LG of 77 and put them together along with an insanely tough LR2. LR1 was alright (3/5 on the difficulty scale)
-
I did have JY's voice in my head most of the test. When I'd cross out wrong answers I'd say something in my head along the lines of "what, this just makes no sense" or "so what who cares?"
-
@Kateryna yeah I blanked out reading it and just skipped it. Came back after I finished with like a minute left and guessed.
-
My writing sample included the phrase "go big or go home" LOL.
-
I had the experimental LG featuring something about new hires/trainers, and days off. I thought LR2 was insanely difficult with some very confusing questions up front and midend (political demogauges? •_____•) RC, ol laquer is the bane. LG was…
-
It's possible. I had them today. I have really bad ADHD. 2x time, plus own room (it was literally just the proctor and I)
-
Yup, proctor should call 5min...or you could end up like I did when I sat in Oct '13 and they forgot...after that it was just panic and downhill from there.
-
I just go to chipotle when I'm feeling lazy (85% of the time)
-
mine also says '5 section booklet' and then mentions AR, LR1, LR2, RC, Writing Sample and says the additional 50% time for each of those but makes no mention of an experimental section.. Either LSAC is trolling hard and making the Writing Part "a s…

@hope.brinn said: I assume that I'm going to have to take the 5 section test with no extra breaks or anything like that. I'll live. But I believe that lack of proper notification was wholly unfair and thus I will exhaust all grievance procedures to…
-
@montaha.rizeq Thanks. But, for me personally, everyone/everything has thrown roadblocks at me most of my teenage/adult life. So I'm not surprised that there's another one being thrown my way. I just learned that I can't sit and complain about it..…
-
I do hope I can cram my lunch in there through. Luckily the medication I take only needs to be taken once daily in the morning...but it still sucks because I was planning to drive up to Ft Worth to celebrate with my girlfriend after the exam, but th…
-
Well that blows. But, as a test taker sitting in September with accommodations I have no choice but to power through it and do the best I can. I'm not going to let an extra section stop me from becoming a bad ass attorney.
-
57 would like to have a word with you.
-
Thank you all for your help and input. LSAC granted my request as of this morning.
-
I found reading a passage out in my head while drilling or testing in Morgan Freeman's voice helps a lot. I stay engaged throughout the section. Don't markup a lot either. I draw a line through paragraphs to help nothing from the previous paragrap…
-
@Matthew524 More than likely yes. I looked on their site for the specific test they require but couldn't find it. But I've gone through a battery of tests in my lifetime due to another neurological disorder I've dealt with.
-
@Matthew524 Thanks for the reminder. I will have everything submitted to LSAC tomorrow morning. I hate that I waited til the last minute to break down and request them.
-
@"Cant Get Right" it was abysmal...I will use that as a starting point. Thank you.

1) I'm 27 years old, I got burnt out working in IT for the largest financial services/investment banking firm in the world and through a blessing in disguise I was laid off in March with a full severance package (leaving behind a near 6 figure salar…
-
@"Alex Divine" I BR'd my PT59 yesterday and went -8 in both sections. I think my diagnostic I was -14/-15 respectively. Just careless mistakes that i need to button up before the exam.
-
This is my full time job, so I went through it in about 2 1/2 months. But I'm sure as PT/BR shows more weaknesses I will be returning to those specific lessons to reinforce.
