As far as Columbia goes, I believe they specifically asked for you to explain “why Columbia” in the personal statement. Not sure if that’s helpful or not, but that’s what I did for my application to them.
Please, do every person in the test center a favor, and leave your phone in your car!!!!! LSAC puts it on everything they send us for a reason. On my test day, 3 people brought phones into the center and made all of us almost 40 minutes late because…
@keets993 perfect, videos!! that'll be helpful to get a good grip on all of this. thank you for such a great list, I will definitely need to devote a few days to get through the legal theory, but I'm very excited to have a direction to head in.

@"up the Chels" Thank you, thank you, thank you! I think you have a great point- I was lost and just jumped into novels, but theory and related jargon seems to be what I struggle getting through the most. I appreciate so much your help and this fant…

Also, can we make it a rule that if you can't even read LSAC's rule…
Sadly I have no words of wisdom to offer, but just wanted to commiserate with you. The same happens to me- individual sections I'm around -4, and in PTs I average -7.I have no doubt the mental fatigue contributes. Hoping for that adrenaline on test …
I'm interested to see what others will say about this, because it's something I haven't mastered either!
Recently, I watched the timed commentary that JY does on a top-scorer's LR section. (It should be included in the basic subscription, since th…
After noting that the question is a weakening question, I tend to read the prompt as if it were coming from I source that I don’t trust, and after finishing it I write in the margin what my initial objection is. Then I look for that objection in an …
