@a_pmorenoc Osgoode is my DREAM school and I saw you were accepted (huge congrats!) so perhaps!
Also is your last name Moreno? Because mine is too hahaha! Couldn't help but notice the username.
Thank you! I believe in …
@Danialkamran13 thank you! I was working part-time during my study period so realistically I was studying about 3 hours a day for 6 days of the week, I chose Sundays to give myself a break so that I could start the week fresh. My 3 hours was also no…

YAYY!! CONGRATULATIONS! You are always so kind and helpful on this forum. Best of luck to you in all your future endeavors.
Aw thank you, I really appreciate that! Best of luck on your journey as well
@Steven_B Thank you! Prior to September I wasn't doing any practice tests but I would test my knowledge by doing timed sections (when timing was an issue, I would give myself an extra 5-7 mins at first then would gradually reduce the time as I got m…
LSAC has confirmed that it is allowed! Some proctors aren't aware of all the rules so what I like to do is know my accommodations and allowed tools that seem 'unusual' beforehand and make the proctor aware that I know what's allowed on the test. Ex …
I started my journey in April 2021 with a 141 diagnostic as well, have scored 165, 168 on 2 LSATs and now I'm PT'ing in the mid 170s and hope to break into the 170s on the January LSAT. It is SO possible to achieve your goal score despite how far aw…
I've had RC-LG-LG-LR before but I think it's fairly random for the most part. What I typically do is put the sections into a random name picker and choose my experimental based on that so that way I'm not unintentionally giving myself a section I pr…

Any tips overall or for RC/LR?
The biggest thing for LR I'd say was noticing trends, often times it's not as simple as a certain question type that gives you trouble, and you have to recognize those to make larger strides. …
For myself, being able to break into the high 160s-170s was all about reviewing and practicing my weaknesses (typical, I know). If you're scoring in the mid 150s at least, I'm sure you have the foundations down and what will help you increase your s…
I've been able to up my mid 160 score to 170s by using the "hunt mode" on: SA, NA, Flawed/Parallel Method of Reasoning, Main point and Argument part questions. I find they're the easiest to prephrase/know what I'm looking for, great thing about this…

I would say it really depends on what schools you're applying to and your best/last 2 years gpa; as for an LSAT in the 150s, the only schools I know that are more likely to accept them (gr…

3.55 was best two?
My best/last two years is 3.88. Do I stand a chance with that and a 150s for osgoode? Also, in which month did you receive your offer?
3.55 overall, my best/last two was 3.67. Your GPA is great, but are…
I would say it really depends on what schools you're applying to and your best/last 2 years gpa; as for an LSAT in the 150s, the only schools I know that are more likely to accept them (granted you surpass their gpa median) are Ottawa and Windsor, o…
From most of the LG sections I've done, there is usually a trend of having 1 harder game and 3 easy-moderate ones, as long as you can consistently get through 3/4 games with accuracy in a short amount of time and spend the rest time on the difficult…
As long as you're confident that you wrote a killer personal statement, your CGPA can definitely compensate for a slightly lower LSAT score! If you do consider retaking, I'd just make sure that you're positive you can achieve a much higher score. Be…
As a fellow Canadian applicant, a 157 may not be as competitive if your GPA is also below the schools median but there are some great schools that do consider a 157 LSAT competitive. If you truly think you can put in the work to get above your 157 f…

lol everybody here being all healthy with the meditation and exercise and here I was thinking of taking sleeping pills the night before to calm myself down.
I mean I did try this the first time around and my anxiety was so …
I struggle with anxiety disorder and what helped me was starting daily meditation before the exam date to relax my body and mind, and to be able to focus, being confident in my abilities (I used to think it was silly until I decided to try it and it…
Did a retake in October, I’m not sure what’s considered easier/harder as it depends on your strengths and if you’re lucky to get the order you prefer. I would assume all the tests are around the same difficulty. And I was still guaranteed my score a…
I was a first time test taker in October and had my score preview count for the retest, the only score you will see is the retest and that would be your Nov score; I didn't see my score of the one where I had tech issues
I would strongly suggest against it. 1) you don’t wanna burn yourself out right before your test 2) if you happen to get a lower score than what you’re averaging, it could knock down your confidence into tomorrow 3) it’s probably best to just do som…
