What do you mean by manually? I've never heard of that before. I have always used the double-space function that you find in the paragraph formatting option.

The same thing happened to me! I asked a supervisor months ago about a LOR, and when I followed up with them a month ago, they asked me to draft it. It's actually a pretty common thing from what I've heard from my colleagues. I chose to see it as an…

If you can't take the LSAT until June 2019, then why not give the GRE a shot. I wouldn't make GRE studying detract from LSAT studying, but from what I've heard from friends who have taken the GRE, it is a much more manageable test and is easier to s…

@jkatz1488 said: @BumbleJD1624 Wow thanks for sharing this. Do you think your firm is representative? I've heard this before from several sources both online and in-person even from the partner level in one instance. It makes sense to me. My s…

I work at a Vault top 20 law firm as a paralegal, and spoke with our head of recruiting today. She said they'll look at anyone who is top of their class regardless of school. Obviously going to a T14 school helps, but if you do well (top 10%) then y…

@acsimon - sorry for the confusion - I took the June 2017 as a proctored practice test. I took it as a PT about a week before the September LSAT. The conditions were pretty realistic (proctor, room full of people, break after 3 sections). The Septe…

If being burnt out is your number one reason for not wanting to take it again, then you should suck it up and take it again. Law school will put you through the wringer a million more times than the LSAT. Consider this a dress rehearsal. I'm in a s…

Thank you! That's a good attitude to approach it with. I doubt law school admissions would look negatively on someone for submitting too many transcripts. They really only care about LSAT and undergrad GPA.

No - if you can get a transcript from a college/university then you should submit it. That was my impression at least. I described the situation to the LSAC person (I have credits at a university, but these credits were acquired during high school),…

Thank you for all your insights! I actually ended up calling LSAC, and they said I do need to submit the transcripts if they come from a college/university.
