Hey sorry I'm MIA but I hope you're excited! I'm flatter my advice helped you, and wishing you all the best. It looks like you're gonna kill it!

Hahahaha. I will state that I definitely do NOT have 5 minutes at the end of any sections, especially not Logic Games, and I scored a 171. I am not sure what your after PT strategy is, but I highly recommend that you take the time to really focus o…

Hello @Pacifico I am currently considering the J.D./MBA program at the University of British Columbia in Canada, and I am uncertain on whether the extra cost of the MBA is worth it. I don't have any specific industry experience in a field, but my u…

Sorry to throw in that wrench hahaha. And I was refering to the bible not the workbooks

I studied the power score books religiously front to back for 3 weeks. Like, full time, very intensely (it was really the only true committed studying I did for the LSAT). I scored a 161 on my first full timed practice exam. I believe that the power…

And I still need to figure out if the J.D. MBA makes sense. I thought a lot more people would have insight into this
-
Hahahah alright no offence taken, i didnt write the story that well either. Anyways, it happened and Im pretty excited.
-
@Sprinkles i mean i dont know why thats Canadian, but its not like they changed their standards, there was just confusion around converting my letterbased grades to a percentage, I noted that their scale wasnt a good reflection of reality and they a…

Heeeyyy @westcoastbestcoast hahahah I still think of Canada when I see your username. I mean, I'm pretty sure that if I show firms class standings they will see that it's not that I'm a crappy lawyer (unless I am a crappy lawyer), and I would think …

Hey, I'm a huge fan of stats, it was my secret undergraduate passion. I think an important thing to remember is that a wait list does not mean a rejection, not even close. You applied to a TONNE of schools, and so did a LOT of people. So what ends …
-
5 months total, fairly casual studying except for the beginning. @"Seeking Perfection" where are you going to school?
-
Its tough you really need both in Canada. Because its largely government funded up here competition in the schools seems fierce. No one private really joins because tuition is 3 times higher without government help. I never realised how many people …
-
@westcoastbestcoast yup! So top notch that they don't accept me hahahaha I got rejected from UBC Because even though my LSAT score is 5-6 points higher than their mean accepted, they used ALL of my GPA from my 5 year degree, including my really, rea…

I wrote a post a few days ago and this was one of my points. You HAVE to shut it off for a while. Just take your little brain motor and shut it down. Change the oil and top up the fuel tank this is 100% needed. Take 5 or 6 or more days completely of…
-
Thanks everyone! Glad I could help! @westcoastbestcoast I'm in Canada... hahah just wondering if you applied to UBC in Vancouver!
-
Hey @westcoastbestcoast are you in Canada or the US?
-
Thanks guys! Humble deffinitely not the first descriptor people who know me would give, but I'm glad you find my writing engaging
-
For anyone who is in the 160 range trying to go up, I just made a post in the general area with my experience and my advice. If you want to read about it go take a look. Congrats everyone! And to those unhappy, truck on folks you've got it just brus…
-
Well guys i guess i'll share too. Im drunk from celebrating but I scored 2 points higher than my highest EVER practice test on this exam, making me a sage! Congrats to everyone on their scores and efforys
-
The hard thing for me to always remember is that this is a scaled exam. If one section was easier for you it was probably easier for everyone else. I totally botched Dec. Exam so hoping this one went better.
-
Hi guys, So I thought the deadline to change was November 18th, but I guess I was wrong? No idea how I screwed that one up. If I write here in December, and score say a 163, and then I write again in February and manage a 170 or something, how big …
-
@mcmlaw36 Yes, but did you see my GPA? Their website says at least a 3.7....
-
@"Seeking Perfection" I agree. I should clarify, I didn't use 'full time' correctly. I still work, and I've had a couple of trips I've had to go on, and looking back 20-40 hours/week is not the right guess, it's definitely closer to 40ish hours or …
-
@alexdivine I broke the powerscore books down into my own personal "cheat sheets", and contrary to many found it most useful for the LR section. After each exam, I blind review my wrong answers and use my cheatsheet to take the formulaic approach to…
-
Thanks akistotle. I have been trying to foolproof games, but it's a challenge. I'll do the same game 5 times, even sometimes the same day, and I still can't make the same key inferences that seem so easy in the video explanations. I can't put my fin…
-
I agree that it took lots of people months, but if I'm not mistaken I think most people do it part time? I've been probably doing 20-30, maybe 40+(for one or two) hours a week on average. It's hard to study for much more than that. In my mind this i…

You guys are awesome, thanks. Yes it turns out that it was a missprint....
