Hi! Just wondering, don't the problem sets in the CC and the PT 1-35 bundle repeat themselves? I think all those practice problem sets are from PT 1-35 ( maybe @"Alex Divine" has some insight into this)
-
interested!!
-
Has anyone noticed they announced this on the exact last day to postpone the June LSAT without withdrawing? Lol maybe I'm reading too much into it
-
found it thank you!
-
Thanks @twssmith! That makes me feel a lot better if JY had this issue Did he say how much he warms up before the PT/what he does? And yay, @Sami helped me with my last question too!! I'm starting to think she's my LSAT hero tbh
-
@MapleSarahp interesting! I might give that a go, thank you The problem is very much psychological, so tackling it with something psychological is a great idea. Thanks again!
-
Thanks @AllezAllez21! Appreciate the advice. The only problem I see with warm ups is that it seems like it wouldn't prove beneficial for the real thing - it can take like 2 hours for them to seat everyone into the testing room, read the directions, …
-
@"Jonathan Wang" so you would still argue that attacking a premise is never permissible in an answer choice?
-
I'd also be curious to see what that looks like
-
@Sami thank you so much! This is exactly what i thought YAY!! It's so funny, cause I know that in real life attacking a premise is an effective way to weaken, but I was thinking maybe it was like an unwritten rule of the LSAT that they would never …
-
this is great. just thought i'd add a tip that helps me: After you finish blind reviewing LR and writing all your explanations, take a blank copy and do all those questions again. This sounds unnecessary because you're probably like, well I just di…
-
thanks @"Alex Divine" appreciate the input!
-
@Sami yes i agree! I was offered a position full-time at a company with a really hectic start-up culture (haha California bay area life) and I ultimately knew it just wouldn't work with the LSAT. Going to look into some legal aid volunteering until …
-
@BenjaminSF very eloquently said, and I agree. I found the same issue myself with 1 vs. 2 PT's because I usually liked to spend a couple days drilling the concepts I missed. It seems to be a delicate balance between taking the time to really dissect…
-
thank you @accountformerlyknowasvd1988, that puts my mind at ease a bit
-
Hi @david.busis, thank you so much for your response! That definitely helps. If you are just out of college, how many months of a resume gap would you say requires an addendum explaining it?
-
@stgl1230 Awesome, you've inspired me to give 2 PT's/week a try I calculated it out and that puts me at about 30 PT's until the June LSAT (it's technically 37, but being conservative.) That's not including the ~10 I've taken so far. Do you happen…
-
@stgl1230 Interesting, I was actually debating whether I should start out with 1 PT a week or 2. Did you feel that 2 PT's a week was a lot to get through? It feels manageable with just BR'ing, but in terms of also going back into the curriculum and …
-
@akeegs92 yes it helped a lot! glad to know others have been in similar situations. good luck with SMU by the way @apublicdisplay thank you, and major props for juggling both. I don't think I can afford to take more time off so this was some much-…
-
@stgl1230 First of all, CONGRATS on the T-14 thats amazing! And thank you for sharing your experience; parts of it are honestly so similar to mine it feels like I'm hearing my own. I had those exact emotions with making it a 2 year gap, and I especi…
-
@BenjaminSF said: Working can do the same, but I don't think getting a 9-5 shows much about you unless it is something you are passionate about. I really needed to hear this, thank you! Being stressed about the situation came at the expense …
-
@Sami that was actually my exact thought process as to why I thought part-time would be a good idea, thank you so much for the insight! I think that's looking like the best option for me right now. If you don't mind me asking, did you find it diffic…
-
Yep @"Stevie C" I remember JY saying that too, which is what prompted me to ask this. But you're right, it's not so much about the score itself. @"Cant Get Right" said: You can't exceed your potential for understanding, but you can't necessarily re…
-
thanks @"Alex Divine" !
-
This sounds amazingly useful! Sorry if this is a dumb question, but where can we access the recorded webinar(s)?
-
@"Alex Divine" omg that email was SO helpful, that really mellowed me down a little hahaha. @CocoZhang @"Alex Divine" thank you both for the input I think I will study with the mindset that I can get it done by September, but if I'm not ready, I wi…
-
Also...follow up question: In the case that I am not ready and have to postpone until say the December test, would this be hugely detrimental to my admissions? I guess I've always known it's "bad" to be late in the cycle with rolling admissions, but…
-
Thanks for replying! The reason I would not like to postpone is that I have already been studying about a year. I just graduated and am taking a gap year - taking it until December or February puts me at a disadvantage for this next admissions cycle…
