When I did this I was also iffy about drawing a causal relationship between books and less visits, but it didn’t prevent me from arriving at the correct answer because I interpreted the stimulus as:
There’s an experiment.
The result of the experi…
I jump between the 70’s and 80’s, using the 60’s as “experimental” and 50’s and older as drills.
So, it’ll be:
PT70 (three section test) and PT60 S1 as experimental
PT80, PT60 S2 as experimental
PT71, PT60 S3 as experimental
Grade PT60
PT81…
Thank you so much for posting this! I had a question about grades: if you are at a T-14 school, do firms have different GPA cut-offs depending in which school you go to (i.e. Harvard vs. Georgetown)?
Some schools specifically ask you to include why you want to go there in their PS prompt, so it varies by school. For me, I played it safe and included a short paragraph at the end of my PS for the schools that didn't give an option to upload a sepa…
On the top of my head, I know that Berkeley and UMich has options for writing why X essays. I also think Cornell has a short answer question asking why you have an interest in their school. Most are not required, but it's highly encouraged. The only…

Is it possible you're confusing (1) "The less X, the less Y" with (2) "If we reduce X, we will reduce Y"?
Ahhhh, yes! I was interpreting (1) to mean (2), but now I understand the difference haha

Unless it's given as a conclusion, of course, then that's a whole other issue!
Ohhh, I think I understand. So, if we look at these two arguments:
1) The more ice cream sales, the more swimming pool drownings. Therefore, the …

Does a “the more A, the more B” statement always imply that there is a relationship between A and B (meaning, A affects B )?
I think of arguments such as:
There’s been an increase in ice cream sales this summer. …
Unless you know if there’s a cause in the relationship, you cannot make an inference on a correlation statement.
If you’re given a correlation (the more A, the more B ), it gives rise to four possibilities:
1. A causes B
2. B causes A
3. C cause…

“Unfortunately, due to financial reasons I was not able to retest for dyslexia and got denied Accommodations for the LSAT”
I think you can explain this in an LSAT addendum rather than a diversity statement. For a diversity statement, the focus …
I don't think it's a stupid thing to write about at all! I would maybe keep it general and say something along the lines of, "during undergrad, I was going though personal issues that affected my academics but after I got over that, my grades went u…

The plus about UCI is that it’s apart of the UC system so people in CA are usually familiar with that those schools, however, since the law school is newer, I don’t know if the name will stretch to the Bay in terms of law firms. I think that if you …

If you haven't already, I suggest listening to The Powerscore LSAT Podcast's most recent episode! They talk about the changes in rankings and they also mention UCI and how relevant the rankings are in terms of employment. My takeaway from that podca…
You can’t use past events to predict the present or the future. But I think you can still have past events in a premise, it just depends on how it plays with the conclusion.

What helped me on RC was practicing active reading and relating each sentence/paragraph to each other. While reading, I also try to notice whose opinions are whose and when the author interjects their opinion. Ultimately, the end goal of reading the…
USC asks for at least 12 point font. But yeah, most of the schools I've looked at usually ask for at least 11 point font...it just depends on the school.
