As far as I can tell, those schools are intrigued by your application, albeit not to the point they accepted you outright (or there is something in your applications that made those schools hesitate). Barring any C&F issues or any other red flag…

"Lagitha performs fifth only if Norton performs third." from the rules, I understand the translation to be: L=5--------->N=3 BUT i don't understand for the life of me why. They seem to be biconditional. As in: "Lagitha can perfo…

1st sentence: $ increase ---> P increase -- which can be rewritten as ~(P increase) ---> ~($ increase) 2nd sentence, 1st part (conclusion): ~($ increase) 2nd sentence, 2nd part: Little invest This is a sufficient assumption question. We ar…

I honestly want to attend ASU Law in the future, but not sure if I should try to get my career kicked off as soon as possible, and transfer to ASU. [...] But I would imagine I would go to Barry or Cooley with my stats, then transfer. All other …

If "some" means at least one but not all. A ginormous misconception here. "Some" encompasses "all" as well; it can range from at least one to all. Suppose there is a group of 100 entities; "some" denotes all possibilities ranging from 1 entity …

@10000019 said: Pepperdine has a grad that clerked for SCOTUS. Does that mean you should seriously consider the school if that's the job you want? Which is exactly why I specifically recommended the OP to opt for UVA or any T13s he gets into…

@10000019 said: If law professor is the only occupation you want, I think you'd want to narrow down the list further than that. The odds get quite slim, but they are not nil either. I have seen a number of CVs with T13 (i.e. non-T5) degrees.

See "The Blind Review Method" section in the syllabus. As for the last question, you would review and try to not fall for the same (or a similar) trick in the future.

As far as my reading of Amazon's product description goes, Breaking the LSAT sounds like a guide with emphasis on a single, recent practice test, not a book that tells you how to approach (a section of) the LSAT. If you are comparing that book to an…

Congratulations!

Thank you so much!

I stand corrected!

The problem with the stimulus is not that it makes a wrongful reversal, but that it makes a wrongful negation. You are kind of right, however, as those two errors tend to go hand-in-hand: both wrongful reversal and wrongful negation assume that A --…

I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out when to use conditional reasoning. Can someone explain to me which questions types are most common in which to use these CR? MSS & MBT, Strengthen, Weaken, Flaw, and (Flawed) Parallel questio…

@"Pride Only Hurts" said: only 62% of UVA grads took on Jobs at Large Firms. That's really low for a high ranking school. I think typically the number is closer to 80%. It's actually quite decent. If I'm not mistaken, only Columbia has som…

an internal devil is telling me WHAT DO I HAVE TO LOSE?! Your odds are quite low at this point (unless you happen to have something like... I don't know, +3.9 GPA and +174 LSAT). If you get rejected and reapply to the same school next cycle, yo…

The world would be a perfect place if those words indicated context every single time (and the global workforce would be operating on a four-weekday calendar, and we would have conquered cancer and hair loss). It all depends on the context.

The latter. See "Miscellaneous Logical Indicators" under "Introduction to Logic."

Depends on the school's policy. If they send acceptance and waitlist notifications by email and you haven't received one, chances are a rejection letter is on your way.

Are they necessary? Will I be at a disadvantage if I don't use them? This is not my first time studying for the lsat. I have used other prep courses before and have also self studied with the LSAT trainer (which i loved). No, especially sin…

So far I've had 4 waitlists (GULC, Cornell, Michigan, Columbia)... Was pleasantly surprised by Columbia. I am not a fan of breaking bad news, but Columbia is infamous for its waitlist admittance rate: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/viewt…

Michigan takes longer than other schools. It took me about two weeks.
-
What was the average wait time for the schools you applied? 3 weeks? My average time is well over 12 weeks. But while I submitted my applications on October and November (when most apps are submitted), you submitted your application in mid-Febr…

This (1) makes me wish that I can get admitted off a waitlist as soon as possible, and (2) reminded me to fill out those housing applications. Just out of curiosity, do admission offices give goodies for admitted students to those who get admitted …

Just a guesstimate, but I'm thinking this was discussed at least ten times here (and about a million times collectively on the Internet). So I will not go into much details. But, in sum, I would personally put way far more weight on the national ran…

how much does the rank of a law school matter in the grand scheme of things? [...] should I apply to schools that are (for example) #80 and #100 because they are known for what I want to take? Or aim for the top schools (who will may be able to o…

I would think the answer is yes. Otherwise we wouldn't get people with titles like "Ultimate+ Alum."

(A) (1) Too general, (2) we don't know if the said studies mentioned in the stimulus are correct. (B) Stimulus says nothing about level of physical activity. (D) Stimulus says nothing about underweight children. (E) Stimulus says nothing about ob…
