I am also making the same decision and I am very torn as well (from NYC and eventually want to be back here for work in big law). I am assuming that much of the CA big law placement out of Berkeley is a result of self selection, but it is definitely…

This is a redundant post, but my family are starting to get annoyed of my "I'm so anxious whyyyy" statements so I should probably give them a break.
Why am I so anxious it makes no sense!!! Like I should be working on my…
I found the personal statement bootcamp webinar on here to be incredibly helpful. By weeding out the mundane details of my life and tying together my meaningful experiences I was able to describe my story- which by the nature of this method resulted…

For Columbia I added a final paragraph to my PS. In the non-Columbia version I give reasons why law school is right for me in the final paragraph. In the extra Columbia-paragraph I pivot to why Columbia specifically s…

I always considered Spain culture to be European
I think you've answered your own question.
Yeah that’s why it threw me off when UPenn included Spain for that box ....
After being offered an abysmal and predatory major label record contract when I was 19, I realized how integral good lawyers are for the artistic community.
I want to represent artists and make sure they are being adequately compensated!
Yeah I am not sure what to check off. I speak fluent Spanish and grew up exposed to the culture as I am 50%, yet I always considered Spain culture to be European. ??♀️
If you have finished the CC, I think the next step for you would be to take a timed exam every week or so and to blind review your exams in between. Once you have noticed patterns in where you have weaknesses, review the CC on those concepts in betw…

I had LR RC LR/LR LG format. My second LR section had a strengthening question about geneticly determined facial recognition in humans and chimps. Anyone know if this was the experimental? Can’t remember any other questions…

Hi all! Does anybody remember having the high fat diet and domestic iron mining questions?
My two cents: felt like this test was easier than July. LR seemed especially easier. LG didn’t have any weird setups but I a…

@Raychul123 25?? Oh man I had 27 bubbled. But I was pretty sure I was off by, at most 1. Can anyone confirm?
I’m pretty positive RC had 27!
Actually now that you say 27 I…
@SomewhereBetween120and180 said:
Can anyone confirm how many questions were in the real RC? I mayyyy have misbubbled.
There were 26 questions in one of the LR sections, so I think that means RC had 25

Don’t worry! it was definitely 6- (MG FLK and then H was the floater). Sad that I remember this,

Magnesium, Chamomile Tea and diet. People really underestimate the power of eating whole foods on your sleep and mood (including anxiety). Try to eat a ton of nutrient dense vegetables, healthy fats, and high quality proteins. Think Paleo/Whole 30. …

For those that had LR-LG-LR—LR-RC, with the 26 question LR passage being thE very first one, think that the first ten were harder than normal??? #4 and #5 tripped me up and ruined my timing for the rest of the section.

I had three LR sections. One of the sections had a most logical counter response question with two people talking about contemporary art. One of the people speaking was like " Contemporary classical music is great art" and the other person was like …
I used to have the same problem with reading comprehension. My un-timed sections were near perfect, but timed I'd miss 5-6 questions. The thing that really helped, as someone stated above, was spending more time upfront really understanding the argu…
Absolutely! A mid 160's score is a matter of really solidifying the fundamentals and putting them to use during your PTs. I found I saw the biggest improvements, enough to bring someone from the high 150's into the 160's by reviewing lessons in the…
I did a similar breakdown of PTs and BRs per week and it may feel redundant, but what I would do in between was take note of the types of questions I was struggling the most with and I would either re-read the Power Score Bible chapter on that quest…
No problem! Applying this strategy to my Reading comprehension was the difference between seeing high 160's and mid 170's on my prep tests. (0-1 on LG) (0-2 on LR) and then I was getting (5-6 on RC) and it was really messing with my score and was in…
