I’m curious what this will mean for this class. With potentially 16% more 1Ls will it be harder to enroll in specific classes down the road? Seems like journals and positions might be more competitive as well.

I think you can succeed applying in January, but it is definitely a little late in the game. I would seriously suggest trying to have a personal statement ready and applications initiated before taking the lsat. Ideally you would send applications o…

If I was doing PTs 50-54 I would break up PT 54 for experimental sections. Then I do PT 50 with a fifth section from 54. When i finish i use a randint generator to pick which 2 of 3 LR sections are scored. Or 1 of 2 RC/LG as the case may be. The sc…

My nyu app took about 15 weeks, not that atypical. I think touching in wouldn't hurt, just be sure you don't come across as impatient.

Agree with @June2018Taker, there is no difference. I will caution that writing personal statements, supplemental essays and other application stuff takes way longer than most people expect. So if you take in july, you might want to start drafting es…

This is funny to me, because I'm not sure which camp I fall into. My room is clean and organized but far from meticulous. My car however...looks like a hoarder nest lol. But its all there for a reason! I frequently go straight from work to happy hou…

I just heard back from NYU....WL :[ Also lots of schools I was already waitlisted at are sending updates, basically, sit tight we're going to start letting a few lucky souls in from purgatory in the vague future

More related to PSLF, but want to follow up on the likely effects of PI lawyers. This is the brilliance of PSLF, and why it must be preserved! It all but eliminates the financial barrier to a public interest legal career! It's better than a scholars…

@Louislepauvre said: My background is in literature/humanities, so I love everything pertaining to that. When I look at an RC, first thing I do is look at the topics. I rank them in the order I'd like to do them. The one I save for last is alw…

The RC from the Sept 2017 test was wicked IIRC. Something about judges maybe?

@hawaiihi said: Would you all say there's a big difference in admissions chances -- disregarding softs -- between those applying in the 175-180 range? What I'm saying is, in that range, does a point or two make a difference...a 175/176/177, fo…

I side with @westcoastbestcoast I have a 176 and have been outright rejected by HYS in the past 2 weeks. While my 3.56 gpa is probably a factor, my minimal WE and comparably unimpressive extracurricular activities are definitely hurting me. Make a s…

I think talking to both friends and/or a professional is massive! I also think it's key to not make school, work, or even studying for the LSAT your whole life. Take time for yourself: exercise, paint, play tennis, or rock climb! Whatever brings you…

Michigan really touts their PI reputation, and the data backs it up. They have really great record for placement and options. I agree that Columbia students tend to choose biglaw and if you wanted PI I still think Columbia would give you ample oppor…

I feel you. I got dinged by Harvard tuesday with a 176 and 3.6 in a brutal STEM program, not shocked, but certainly disappointed. I'll echo what some have said, this cycle is competitive at a unprecedented level. There's a link in a nother thread t…

@"Seeking Perfection" I'm in the same boat, UofM have me 120k and I'd love to go there, but would love some negotiation power. So far I haven't heard from Y and S, dinged at H, Cornell, and Berkeley, WL at Chi, Col, Penn, UVA, Duke, and Ucla. In at …

Disclaimer: I'm going to grossly and irresponsibly oversimplify this debate. The value of a jd from the t14 and t6 especially is margin for error. You can succeed from Hofstra et al. if you A) get killer grades get excellent experience in your 1L …
