@"Leah M B" said: First, I don’t think you should worry about a score decrease. I did the exact opposite of you - I got a 168 and then re-took and got a 164 🤦🏼♀️. Wanted to attempt a third try but ran out of time. I’m re-applying now and it…

Do you mind sharing your gpa? Waiting on responses from a couple of those schools. I have the same LSAT score and I wanted to use 7sage editors but they told me I didn’t have much of a chance at getting into the same schools you got into. If you’re…

@ptkluu543 said: @oshun1 , I would rather not identify my specific school since I prefer to keep my anonymity on this forum but my school falls around #30 on US News rankings and is considered the top school in my region. I have friends at oth…

Northwestern? Seems like everyone’s still waiting on NU responses. Whichever school it is, emailing them won’t help. You could just respond to the email which notified you that you’re on hold and say thanks I’m still interested

@ptkluu543 did you mentioning the networking part because some people are not used to networking, or because networking BEFORE law school is necessary to get a job during/after law school...?

@xtrfalcon @ptkluu543 do you mind my asking which schools you are going to?

@10000019 said: Unless the application specified that should be done I wouldn't worry about it. I’m pretty the schools I applied to wrote in the instructions that you should include a header and your lsac# on each doc but I could be wrong. I…

Super use useful info in your comment above re $$ and jobs! Michigan WL’d me, i’m gonna visit at the end of February!

Schools usually don’t start looking at apps until mid January, there’s no need to write a LOCI yet. Most everyone else is waiting too. I’ve gotten response from some schools but still waiting on 4 more. Look at the law school admissions reddit, we’r…

I agree that you should redo the curriculum entirely again. You can try foolproofing LG while going through the CC to get to -0 on LG. Or just foolproof LG after going thru the cc.

Congrats!!! Whats your top choice?!

@FixedDice said: I always spell things out the first time. Acronyms come after. Same! I start off writing the school name based on how the school formally lists itself on LSAC (like on that instructions page when you start the app) and then …

I think the most important question is how are you surviving the polar vortex!!

Where else did you apply? What is your GPA?

Before the lsat I took like 1/3 of a sleeping pill that I take when I travel or when I have to go to bed early/wake up early. Usually I take half but I didn’t want to risk possibly being drowsy so I took even less than I would take normally. It’s no…

LSAC counts both. I had something similar on my transcript but on LSAC there’s no 0 credits/replacement grade listed
-
“there really isn't much material out there for us to prepare for this“ - you can actually find every single northwestern question on TLS/Reddit/google. None of the questions should be surprises for anyone and one can prepare answers in advance.
-
Good stuff. My decision to delay was based on rude TLS comments telling me no school would accept me with my previous score. although they were wrong, I needed that kick in the ass to motivate me to retake. I think nice posts like this are more moti…

@ata9144 said: Thanks to @oshun1 and @BlindReviewer. Today I wrote PT 72 and scored a 164. So, that does seem to be a significant decrease from my average. However, it seems more important to me that the feel of the questions were different a…

Honestly, this isn’t an “incident.” instead of dead silence there was like, a 3 word exchange in your vicinity. it probably had no effect on your score. If someone needs to go to the bathroom during the exam, that’s what happens, they have to try …

Took me going through the CC twice and foolproofing pt1-35 twice
-
Not to be discouraging but that 168 average may drop drastically once you get to the newer PTs in the 70s and later. You need to start doing the most recent PTs. It doesn’t matter if you burn through them, do every other PT or every 3rd PT in 70-86 …

Any updates? Did you email the school?
-
Congrats!! This cycle is soo slow ugh it’s killing me. After feeling relieved like I was done with all of my interviews and my fate is sealed, I got an interview request last Friday from a t13 which i’m at 75ths for. I applied even earlier than you …

If you only mention one program, then you need to talk about your background/your skillsets that you can bring to the program/that would make you a good fit for that program or would align with your interests/your future goals. Otherwise the essay w…

@msk12345 said: what's touch typing? I think it means typing without looking at the keyboard. I honestly didnt think this was a thing anyone under the age of 30 even thought about. It was so rare to see anyone handwriting notes in college.

@Bamboosprout said: Hey, sorry to ask a question instead of answering. I'm curious about the concept of the JD-LLM in international law, but don't understand the point. Can't you learn the exact same thing, and can't you spend a semester abroa…
