Congratulations!!

Probably depends on your specific timing issue. Are you rushing through questions because of a fear that time will run out? In that case, it's probably better to answer more slowly and accept 1-3 empty questions as a necessary loss for a higher scor…

That's a very unusual comment. Are you currently on a waitlist?

Yes drill Misc games! Drilling Misc games helps you with "normal" games because you better understand how to tackle a confusing rule or twist in the game.

I really think do both if you can. Full time studying is most likely to lead to burnout, I don't really think someone can productively study for 40 hours per week. Internship and work experience is definitely valuable for many reasons: trying to fig…

Have you taken a diagnostic? I think your diagnostic score probably should dictate your strategy. If your diagnostic is high/close to your target score, you might benefit more from taking PTs and focusing on specific weaknesses. If your diagnostic s…

Prioritize full PTs! And doing a very thorough BR after each PT. Drills are fine if you want to do something light in between PTs, but it's really the full length PTs that help bring your score up. Gotta practice sitting still for a long time and te…

I don't recommend any studying the day before or the day off. For both burnout and for your confidence. Even if you do light drills, if you struggle with them or get them wrong, it may throw off your confidence the day before or the day of the test.…

A lot of schools (all schools?) have policies against doing this. Michigan has explicitly stated they do, for example. If you ask professionally and politely, it's not going to hurt you. Just don't expect much from it.

Specialty rankings don't really speak much to your ability to get a job in that field so I say overall ranking!
-
When I was studying and WFH, I did find it a lot easier to manage than studying and work in an office (pre-covid). If you work from home (which it sounds like you do), I'd definitely recommend seeing if you can shift your start of the work day a lit…

@rhumphreys1015 said: According to LSAC statistics, applicant LSAT scores are way up this year, so I’m guessing that the shorter test is preferable to most people. This might also be because people had more time to study (no social life due …

Keep in mind the Yield Protect implications of retaking a 172. You are above or at all of these schools 75th percentile class scores I believe. If you retake a 172, schools may assume that you are gunning for HYS (who have medians above 172) and be …
-
I would recommend retaking regardless of your goal school. Even if your goal school has a median of 150, retaking and scoring higher would put you in the running for a lot more $$. There's no reason to take loans and pay full price when you can put …

I'm glad they're finally admitting that it's possible to proctor a break in a remote test lol
-
Why did you submit LG with 6 minutes left? Definitely always use the extra time to go over your answers! For tips, I'd probably emphasize not rushing through the questions. It sounds like you understand the concepts based on your BR scores. Taking …

Re-do the game board
-
It sounds like you might be burning out to be honest, so I would recommend studying a little less. Was the 172 a fluke, or is that around where you usually score? If you're usually scoring in the low 170s, I'd imagine the 162 is the fluke. Also, are…
-
I second that softs are very important and would recommend improving those in whatever ways you can! Also improving relationships with professors so you can get better LORs (if you don't already have great relationships with 2 profs) I would only r…
-
Honestly, I would be a little cynical because of how late in the cycle they sent this (full disclosure, I applied to Stanford and have no beef with them). Especially considering that Stanford is a school that has stated that timing of application ma…
-
I'm not sure what benefit you would get out of withdrawing instead of waiting for a decision? You already paid for and worked on your apps, might as well get a result.
-
I also bombed 89 days before before my actual Flex!! I scored 12 points higher on my actual Flex than on that PT. Don't let a dumb PT knock your confidence
-
"I know the obvious answer is to slow down, but I feel the need to move fast since I am very slow when it comes to LG. I usually never get to the fourth game in time." I would actually recommend spending a lot of time drilling LG individual games a…

Yes they can submit now! That's even better to get them in early, so when you actually apply everything that's outside of your control will be ready

I remember reading somewhere (months ago) that certain LSAT scores just wouldn't "exist" on certain Flex tests because cutting down the number of questions compresses the scores like that. For example, one converted test would only have a 177 or a 1…
