Same here (but not URM). I also have a 161. I find it encouraging but don’t put a lot of hopes on it the highest ranked waiver so far is Penn. It’s nice to save some $$ when applying, though.
Edit: I do have a high GPA, over 75th percentile at al…

I thought it was easier than June and July. June’s RC destroyed me. I thought this one was a very typical LSAT. It’s also totally possible that I was just more prepared for this one after …
I found the LGs hard, but they are never my strong suit. The mining question threw me. Other than the first ? I guessed on most of that game. I do well on RC usually and felt this one went well, though I got a bit short on time on the last one, so w…
Yes, I did the same After starting I realized that 7Sage was for me, and upgraded to ultimate. (I'll be 50 when I start law school next year -- welcome!)

wait can someone explain the curve? like if PS is predicting -10 curve does that mean everyone gets 10 points free? I don't get it and had no idea there was possibility of a curve on the LSAT LOL
Curve means how many you …
I would not want to rely on it entirely. I started with PowerScore, then moved to 7Sage (which was the most helpful for me). I also use Khan, but mostly just for another perspective. Sometimes I get little "Aha!" moments that bring things into focus…
There was a guy in my group who had 6 highlighters of various colors and at least 2 dozen pencils. I really wondered if he used all the highlighters but was too busy to watch obviously.
Older guy in front/left of me finished every section at least …
I’m really down about today. I was really confident going in and felt the first two sections went ok (RC and LR)..a little short of time at the end of each and had to rush a little, but nothing horrible. Then I got the LG section with the floors and…
My last PT was last weekend. I haven't done well on my last two PTs (trying too many test-taking strategies, I think), so scores have been down a few points. This messes with my head, so I've decided no more this last week.
Instead, I drilled indiv…

The thing with strategy is it needs to work universally. Trying a strategy out the first time is always a bit rough, but the broader issue I see is just that your general strategy only works under certain conditions. Ma…

Well there are a few things here that you can use to calm your self down!
1.) You tired a new skipping strategy. - Often when we try new things on a test, or we take an unorthodox approach, we will take a hit to our sc…
Thank you all, especially for the perspective on trying a new strategy. It was literally the first time I'd tried it (having just listened to the webinar about it the day before). I think what I'm going to try before the test in Dec is taking timed …

In the last 2 weeks strategy can net you more points than "drilling types" like Sami mentioned are you skipping? Consistently? Are you doing things how you normally do them? How do you bubble?
Basically are you taking …

So I took the Sept. test and scored 5 points higher than the latest 3 PTs I took before it.... so make sure to be calm and eat properly the day of the test
oh god, if that happened to me it would change all of my target…

When I first took the LSAT (three times, 23 years ago!) I was naive and didn't even know you were supposed to study for them. Never even occurred to me LOL. Anyway, my scores were 159, 161, 160 (I was frustrated by this because back then they averag…
When I first when to law school (23 years ago!), I wanted to WIN. Win court cases, win arguments, etc. That's really all I though about back then. My schooling was interrupted when I had kids (finished two years, took a year off, but then couldn't a…
