100% yes write an addendum and explain this

I would ask them, but I think so. The way the underrepresented groups question focuses on specific groups, whereas a candidate can be diverse for any number of reasons. When I applied to NYU, I submitted a DS about how my mother suffered from mental…

Shoot your shot!

I highly recommend doing the games! They're generally harder so it's great practice.

I see why you diagram SA, but I don't know why you would diagram NA. For NA, the answer is a MBT. Just go in looking for a MBT, and then negate the answer. If negating it would wreck the argument, then that's the answer.

Almost finished! It was a crazy and unpredictable cycle. I'm 2.9/169. Admitted GW (0$) ASU (24k/year) UC-Irvine (waiting on scholarship info) Seton Hall (45k/year) Rutgers (18,800/year) Brooklyn (16k/year) Case Western (40K/year) Waitlists …

I’m 39 and had no LORs from profs. I had two higher ranking colleagues and a client. I was accepted to 4 schools (GW, ASU, Seton Hall, Rutgers). If you’re out of school a while, you do not LOR from profs.
-
Toward the end of my studying I bounced around for that very reason, except for the last week when I did a bunch of very recent PTs. Although I tell my students now to use 1-30 for drills, 31-50 for practice sections, and 51+ for full length PTs.

At a disadvantage against July? Yes. Luckily, though, there are few geniuses and Bob will overall do just fine (given he continues in his pattern of studying and doesn’t have a total meltdown).
-
Keep your answer predictions very flexible (at least for the hard ones). For weakening/strengthening I phrase it into a question: why is too expensive? Why bigger? Etc, rather than having a narrow focus. On thé first read through of the answers only…

In terms of distraction/focus, once I had a proctor, in a very small room, put on headphones and blast reggaeton. He thought we were all just hanging out having a good ol’ time.
-
Yes! It’s still very early. How long have you been writing PS and other docs? Make sure your app is strong, and there’s no reason why you wouldn’t get in. If you want scholarships though, I’d bump up the LSAT.
-
If your issue is spotting the conclusion or the flaw, it sounds like a reading problem. Are you reading them closely enough? Often though, in a level 5 question, the language is fine and normal. It’s just the answer choices are really freakin tricky…
-
With those numbers you can get into UVA, Northwestern, Georgetown et al. Don’t delay going to law school for another year because you want to go to Stanford. There’s other schools than HYS. People who go to schools ranked 7-20 tend to also have grea…

Sounds like you’re looking at Fordham, Cardozo et al. I applied to NYU with a 169/2.9. Totally expecting to get rejected, but I figured they needed my $135 haha
-
These symptoms sound very severe, but I wouldn’t use them as a means to explain your score. Generally, LSAT addendum should be for variations in score, which you have (I wrote one for a 20 point disparity). But I wouldn’t say anything beyond that. I…

You don’t need to go into detail about the events that led up to it. Just say something simple like, “I was arrested for X on January 1, 1992. After insufficient evidence, X charge was dropped. The type of behavior that led to being involved in an a…
-
I would do more research into this, but I would say no, don't do that. It may be a good idea for your application to answer the "why law school" question, but do not feel the need to say "Why X law school." Take this as an opportunity for them to ge…

Thanks for letting me know @"David.Busis"! I would be interested in working with Selene though. Cardozo is a target school, and I would love to hear her insights. Is that possible? Also, after materials are all sent, generally how long is the turnar…
-
How much of a refund will they give you if you register for November and then drop out (because, let's say you love your July score)? If you're willing to lose that money, then do it. I wouldn't worry about 5 times. July was my 5th time. 5 is gener…

Hello! Is this service still being offered @"selene.steelman" ?
-
Necessary can be sufficient, but I don’t think a sufficient can be necessary. I’d love to hear others thoughts on this though.
-
If that happened, then the conclusion wouldn’t hold, because then the examination wouldn’t be a fair representation of their ability (as the argument claims it is). That’s why the assumption is necessary. If the necessary assumption fails (isn’t tru…
-
The conclusion is: the best drivers drive best with a supervisor aboard and when they’re alone. Now, if it wasn’t true that drivers are pretty much all affected in about the same way when they’re being evaluated, the conclusion wouldn’t hold, becau…

LR was tbe hardest section for me to see how and why I was improving. I think you really need to sit with LR, study the phrasings of the answer choices (particularly in Flaw and Argument Part). You have to think deeply and for a long time about how …

Never read the trainer but those aren’t the same guy. Mike Kim wrote the trainer. JY does vouch for it though. Maybe start doing full timed PTs and see how you do? If you’re scoring in the 170s consistently, it doesn’t seem like you’d have to learn…

@cejatu said: can someone guess on the curve??? Powerscore is saying -12

For games I would recommend going back and trying some old ones (like 34, 31). Those tended to be harder and will make newer games seem totally doable.

4 times is generally fine. 6 is when you hit the “too much” mark.
