Well this might dox me lol (I wish the default wasn't to use the gravatar photo and instead let us pick), but I'm also a senior at FSU and took the test last Dec. Here's my study schedule: https://7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/14336/here-was-my-…

@ebalde1234 ah gotcha! Sorry, I'm American so that's where my mind went.

I would strongly advise against using a high school teacher. K-JDs are already looked at as immature (I say that as one myself); getting a rec from a high school teacher only adds fuel to the fire. Have you held any leadership positions? Any interns…
-
As far as which PTs to take, I also PT'd for about three months, and did every third from 55 on, twice a week with blind reviews and timed sections (using 40-50) in between. So 55, 58, 61, etc. Eventually when I got into the 70s I was sure to hit so…

I don’t think anyone is scoffing at the idea of taking time off, but rather at OP’s seeming inability to understand why everyone doesn’t take the time off. As I’ve said, if you have savings or parents to pay for your time off, that is absolutely fan…
-
I'm just not even sure what point you're trying to get across? Like, are you asking if you should take time off? You keep giving hypotheticals about ROI etc etc. But like... why? You said you want comment/feedback--are you trying to convince someone…

The more I read your post, the more offensive it becomes lmao. So, some points: If you're working 60 hours a week, you probably need the money.You think someone working that much is just doing it for shits and giggles? I understand what you're sa…

I don't have any advice towards the Ws, but are you absolutely sure you want to go to law school? It is not something you want to do for a semester and then withdraw from. It seems like you have a good head on your shoulders and have figured things …

Have you looked at mylsn.info? That will answer most of your questions
-
Have you poked around the LSAC website? It lays it out pretty clearly https://www.lsac.org/jd/applying-to-law-school/cas/requesting-transcripts/?view=1 Is there anything in particular you're confused about? Also, I'm not sure why now would be too …

It won't be released until August
-
Not to be a buzz kill, but people can get in trouble with LSAC if they share a test that hasn't been disclosed. Advance at your own risk, but it'll be released by August I believe.
-
Have you read Pacifico's post about Fool Proofing? It goes into detail. Please, do not do 10 times in a row lol. That's good for burnout and that's about it. Anyone can memorize a game after doing it 5+ times. The trick is to be able to learn how to…

Something I realized while prepping is that every single answer is in the passage. No, seriously. So when I would drilled RC passages, I started out by not timing myself. I would read the passage once and write the summaries for each paragraph. Then…

Depends on how well he can speak to your abilities. Don't go for the title, go for the content. Depending on how long you've been out of school, some schools will require you to have a professional letter. The way you've done it--two academic and on…

@"David.Busis" said: @kimmy_m66 This cycle! !! Awesome! Very exciting--thanks for always being so innovative here at 7sage

Also Duke! I believe it's explicitly stated as an option essay (where other schools, UVA for example, don't even mention them even though they are strongly favored)
-
Also--once you know where your numbers place you (e.g. T6, T14, T1, T2 etc), reach out to alumni of your undergrad!! This has been soooo helpful. My career center recommended it. Every single person I've messaged has gotten back to me. LinkedIn has …

@"David.Busis" said: @Ohnoeshalpme We are building a predictive tool! It's more or less a modern version of MyLSN. I'll announce it to everyone when it's ready! When are y'all planning to announce ?This cycle?
-
I felt that the lesson on Why X is the most helpful. Everyone says to write them, but few places go into detail!
-
Can I refer to schools as their abbreviation (e.g. UVA Law) or should I always use the full name when writing a Why X?
-
What constitutes real "work experience"? e.g. working part time in undergrad? Full time in undergrad? Or only full time once graduated?
-
Focus on other law school things helped me. I was a year out from applying, but I wrote a draft of my PS. I contacted a professor to write an LoR. I started looking at what schools I should target. I channeled all of my nervous energy somewhere else…
-
I want to point out that if you start your one watch when the proctor says "Now" and stop it as soon as they say "stop," then you should be in sync with them, with maybe plus a second or two. I do not think it's worth the risk.

@"sbc.mom_3x" said: That's a great question, and my first one, thinking I will focus on that 1 LG area that gives me the greatest challenge. Then I check the analytics on here and it's hardly just a section or two. It's a couple to a few quest…

So this might not help with RC, but Criminal is a really, really good podcast. It's about some weird applications of the law/weird situations. May not help, but if anyone's looking for a new 20 minute pod, Criminal is your thing!

I would send a thank you. I would not send an "addendum" unless something had actually happened, not just underperformance. Trust me, your interview is not the worst they'll ever see; hell, I'd bed it's not the worst they'll see today. Breathe, send…
-
Ah man, congratulations! That's fantastic!
-
What's your worst question type on LR? Those are what you should focus on drilling, in my opinion. Another option is to get really good at LG. Honestly, in a month you can probably get down to -2/-3 per section. That alone would get you past 151, es…
