I agree with @Sami, and I feel like the best way to distinguish that is to look at your BR score. If you're consistently less than -2 per section of LR on BR (and more often -1/-0), then you can start looking at execution strategy and timed work. @…

I would say September at the earliest.

@TaylorAnn I think untimed work is so critical. You could do the occasional untimed section if you wanted a variety of LR questions to deeply study. Or you could maybe be focusing on a particular process for LR (like really identify the flaw, or th…

The people above me are smart and you should listen to them. Understanding and accuracy brings speed naturally.

The great thing about the LSAT is that you can retake the test, and improvement is entirely possible with the right studying techniques. That's what 7Sage is here for! Keep at it.

I did the interview a couple weeks ago. I thought it was friendly and relaxed. They asked all the usual questions. Don't stress about it. Just be prepared to talk about your interest in law, Chicago specifically, your resume, and your time at school…

Law School Transparency will give you a great look into the inputs and outcomes of schools: https://www.lstreports.com/schools/ It's still numbers based, but it's beyond GPA and LSAT.

@"sen.noopur" From info I could find online, it looks like that for all of HYS at least part of a spouse's income is taken into account. Seems like it varies in exactly how each school does it. But overall I'd say that's an important thing to consid…

I'd probably take the money. The differences in outcomes between schools are marginal, but the differences in cost are astronomical. Yale is probably an exception if you want to go into academia or shoot for a super prestigious government-related …

Good advice above. One clarification: while a high GRE score is a nice indication of your book smarts, schools are required to report your LSAT. That means that a good GRE can't really negate a lower LSAT. At the end of the day, because LSAT scores…

Thanks all for the kind words. @lsatplaylist They give admits a phone call, which is exhilarating.

Good advice above. I set the target to do each game 4 times. My goal was to get the game well below the target time, like maybe 20% or more faster than the target. If I couldn't achieve that in 4 attempts, I kept attempting it.

Hey @Emily2122 you can hear me blab about it here: Me and JY talk LSAT for over an hour.
-
It's a pretty relaxed interview. Standard questions like why law, why harvard, tell us about your job, etc. Just relax and be yourself! You got this!

@LSATcantwin said: Stanford - Amazing campus, beautiful really. Cost of living around the campus is insane though. Pretty much any living situation in the Bay Area is going to be rough....it's out of hand here. It is true that housing off ca…

Yes, you should list it. It shows how you spent your time. Schools will look kindly on people who worked during college. Put it down like you would any other job. State your time commitment and responsibilities. Describe what you did in a succinct …

Congratulations, well earned!

As stated above, the number of 172+ scorers, and especially the number of 174+ is quite rare, especially compared to class sizes at the top schools. There simply are not enough people with both high LSATs AND high GPAs. Those who do have both are go…
-
@"Paul Caint" The data is about those with LSAT scores, so GRE applicants presumably aren't impacting these numbers. Also, regarding reverse splitters, I don't think this data is helpful to your chances. The increase in applicants with good LSAT sc…

Read the question stem before you do the stimulus, then read the stimulus, then read the question stem.

Keep it simple, save money, use a bezel. If you practice using the bezel, it will be 100% good enough.

Great question! The answer is probably it depends. I am for sure not qualified to give you an answer with any precision, only based on information I have read and learned from decently credible sources. Applying early January is certainly not late.…

As Leah said, it is a very good sign, especially so early in the cycle. They get about 5,500 applications, and end up interviewing roughly1,300. They offer admission to 900 applicants. So you're in a great position. Congrats!

I don't think there's anything particularly difficult or special in the 70s. Sounds like you might be burning out. There's not much more to learn in the next two weeks. Just try to really rest up and keep a good mindset. I would just do like max 3…

Orrrrrrr. You could bring an electric razor to the testing site and then shear it off in front of the proctor if they refuse to let you in and then shout "HOW BOUT NOW?"
-
I think it depends on your perspective, but you do bring up a good point. For me, I enjoy the grind. I enjoy the thought that I am doing the prep that so few others are willing to do. I enjoy knowing I am going to outwork all others, out prepare an…

Unless you BR a 180 nine times out of ten, you've got more to gain from BR. Once you're in the high 160s I suppose it's fair to start focusing on execution strategies, though you'll have more to gain from learning as well. Watch the webinar on skip…

Hey everyone! Thanks for joining me. I had a lot of fun and appreciate your thoughtful questions. For those who missed it, don't fret. JY recorded the webinar and it will be posted sometime soon. Here are some parting thoughts: Your studying real…
