@"kmarie.s" said: Yes, it is to apply to law schools. Traditionally speaking, your GPA is still supposed to be on there if it is above a 3.5. I would say a resume follows resume rules and no, your GPA is not required if it's above 3.5. Anyth…

If it's not part of the picture and majority of the space is covered then it's fine. It's something on their end that gives some of them that white bar, happened to mine and the lady didn't notice or care. It's all up to the judgment of the proctors…

I don't know when it's dated but here's a summary list of top law school policies involving multiple scores. Many already state they consider your entire LSAT history while others only consider your highest. Imo, do your best the first time, try aga…

@tringo335 said: Can anyone think of any negatives to this option? -- is taking the LSAT 'too many' times detrimental? And what would admissions folks consider as 'too many'? It would depend on the school and how they react to it. This along…

Plan for the worst case scenario, choose a section you have the most difficulty with so you're prepared on test day.

^ Disagree with that, certain denominations of Asian groups are more common among applicants because of higher and more affluent populations back home. International Chinese students, in particular, tend to gravitate around and attend well-known sch…

LoRs are for the schools to know more about your character and work ethic, not getting an A in one teacher's class shouldn't matter too much and really depends more on the entirety of what she writes. Honestly, you'll probably do well with any of t…

From personal experience: Yes,you apply for Fafsa any time you wish to use federal aid, there's a limit to how years of aid you can get from certain grants like the pell grant, however. I believe it was 6 years (12 semesters) so it won't last the a…

@Harrison_Pav said: @"Seeking Perfection" You put a lot thought into your response, and I must say it's well written, and thank you for taking the time to respond. So I'll give in on the low income/middle class premise, because I think yo…

When you think you are ready is pretty much the main determinant. Don't pay to keep taking the official LSAT any more than you have to. Even if the LSAC are making it so that you can now take it as much as you can and more often, as stated before in…

@"Seeking Perfection" said: If they really wanted to win our love, they could do a limited run of books right after grey day marked with the caveat that they are tentative and that the scoring should be double checked against their website. …

There's no extra penalty for leaving a question blank or for getting one wrong but if you don't understand the stimulus at all after reading it once or twice, you're risking time to do other questions. There really isn't much you can do. Guess and c…

@TheLSAT said: I just spoke to a person at LSAC, and she said, "the 180 is no longer allowed because of the start/stop function." Do you guys have an idea as to why that's a bad thing? Unless It has sound, I'm guessing unfair advantage o…

@"Seeking Perfection" said: I think you nailed the reason. Their shouldn't be any significant editing since it is the same as the actual test except for the experimental section and printing does not take that long. They should have been …

They use your best score, it doesn't matter when you took the test as long as you send everything in by the due date. A test 5 years ago will have the same weight as the one in December. Those schools are picky but it won't be over the date of your …

Moonwalking with Einstein by Josh Foer gives you a good intro into memory techniques, it shouldn't change your current study plan but something interesting to think about and read. Anything that's by Michael Sandel, one of the more popular Harvard p…

You could just make a word doc with rows and columns for your ACs and question numbers unless you're looking for something you can circle in.

It's extra information because it's only there to name the source of the support used, that's all. There's nothing in that paragraph that remarks on what the historians believe is causation. B is wrong because it makes their expertise an issue; why …

Took a class when I started, it's frankly a waste of time. The main issue is that you're basically starting from the beginning but not your beginning. They'll go slowly through a set curriculum built for newer test takers and to be realistic, you're…

No, I'm not saying anything is the historians'. What I meant in my second paragraph is that adding that they said it is extra information. The information could come have just as easily come from a survey or who said it could not be mentioned at all…

Well, the argument only mentions that according to them, the belief exist among many groups and that is completely within their field of examining culture (cultural beliefs in particular). Note that it's the speaker, not the historians, whose connec…

You might be too focused on the time if you're going upward, it's not a "natural pace" if you keep thinking about how long you're taking and upward requires you to shift more focus on the time. Set an 35 timer with an alarm and make sure you can't s…

@Hurricane11 said: Unclear - it could mean nothing. Then again, what is the point of having staff in on a holiday? Probably just folks trying to clear a backlog of work before it piles up during the break.

@lsatblitz said: Surprised no one's mentioned the circle game. My brain just doesn't like working in LSAT circles The circle game, what I did was just add a second row so the top and bottom like 1 and 5 are across from each other and an arro…

http://www.getprepped.com/lsat-accommodations-add-adhd-other-accommodations/ Might help, LSAT grants up to double time when necessary, also check the requirements at LSAC. if you're testing in September, you might want to start applying for the exc…

When I mention it might be an N/S issue, I mean in that a tax may have different requirements to be considered a tax, logic-wise it would look like X+Y+Z = Tax. Here, X, Y, Z are necessary reasons to be a tax and meeting all 3 are sufficient enough …

I wouldn't consider it as an ambiguity fallacy because B relies on a set definition for taxes while the argument tries to include HC into that umbrella. An AF might actually make it wrong if there are no clear definition as what a tax is. I would co…
