Dude, quit while you're ahead. There are so many amazing occupations out there. I'm sure I'll get blasted for writing this, but that is a really tough score to improve upon. You're going to have to improve by 20+ points just to have a shot at T3 sch…
I am now ready to score a 220 on the Jan lsat, get a letter of rec from Michelle Obama, and consequently, earn a $1mill scholarship to Harvard Law. Impossible is nothing. In the words of Charlie Sanders, "Kids, You can literally fly.."
I'm into the reverse Robin-Hood vibe; rob the poor to feed the rich. This ethos fuels me. Props to all of those altruistic-y, world-improvement types, but there needs to be some Yin to the Yang. #AynRand
For people searching the forum for this question, I thought I'd add to the explanation of why E is wrong. I found it fairly easy to see why B is strengthens, but had difficulty totally eliminating E. Powerscore // manhattan explanations for the elim…
Started at 145, now scoring in the high 160's (168/169, etc). Trying to break 170 too. It's totally possible, but it's even more work than people say it is. Undergrad // jobs, etc were easy compared to improving at this test (for me at least). I wil…
I struggled with LG for over a year. I'm finally scoring in the high 160's, but it took hundreds of hours (maybe even thousands) of practicing LG. I found that mastering the easy games was really important to allow enough time to even get to the las…
I am not consistently scoring -0 in RC, but my last timed PT was -0, and I score plenty of -2's/-3's.I've noticed that I struggle with art and cultural passages. Spending more time with these in BR helped. I got a subscription to NY review of books …
I think all this talk of disappointment about scores is annoying. If you want to go to law school then pick a school and just start your journey. You can always transfer into your "Top School" after your first year. Or you can do 3years at a law …
@Ravinder Looks like you opened up a can of worms. Would love to get the list too if possible. Thanks so much in advance, and sorry you got inundated with requests.
Take a break from LG. I can relate to your time spent with LG. A little background; I started off with a 145 diagnostic and went -20 LG. I literally only got like 3 Q's right on my first PT. I've drilled games for over a year, and I'm now consisten…
Create a spreadsheet for LG. I scored -22 on the LG section for my diagnostic. It was pretty demoralizing. I'm now hovering around -5, but my progress has really picked up since I began the spreadsheet, and made a point to prioritize sleep.. Focus …
@FindingSage, can you tell me what your LSAT was? I'm thinking of applying to ASU. I'm aware of their medians and everything, but I'm just curious to hear from someone that was accepted.
@VerdantZephyr I'm at UCD now for undergrad. I would've applied to their program this cycle, but I'm ready to leave the area for a while and experience something new. For what its worth, I'm going to submit my first app in late April. Its unconventi…
I don't want to be negative, but with your background, seriously ask yourself why law school is a goal. My partner is an RN (1 year out of school), and she makes FAR more money than most lawyers earn even after several years in the field. I know tha…
"What is the reasoning for taking the LSAT in winter/spring?"
Applying later in the cycle. I haven't been happy with my PT scores, and want a 170. I'm sitting for April, and may sit again in June. Its not unlikely that ill be deciding where I'm att…
The profession is becoming grossly competitive. Just look at the number of applicants that frequent 7sage and other prep sites. The prospect of making real money is more likely in the LSAT prep business than in the actual practice of law. The sector…
A 15 point difference between PT and BR isn't abnormal. 6 months ago, I scored a 153 timed, with a 168 BR. The score variation just means you have a lot of work to do to close the gap.
Letmein didn’t make “racist comments.” He mentioned the proctor was from India. If you’ve studied the LSAT at all, you’d recognize that interpreting his vague description as racist is a HUGE assumption. Nothing in his statement supports that conclus…
