Without knowing about the specific school you are applying for I would say it is highly unlikely that it is too late. When you have a few minutes listen to the Powerscore podcast number #73. You don’t need to listen to the entire thing but after t…

Are you looking at doing one or both LR sections?

What I found was different for me timed versus BR , was that under time I tended to want to make a basic game board and then rush into the game. To improve, during BR I did not allow myself to brute force anything or to draw out sub game boards for…

When I translate a stimulus I am not only trying to simplify the English I am also creating a picture in my head. I hold this visual "bubble" in head as a I read. Here is a link to an example of how I break down a stimulus for a science question a…

I saw the Nicole Hopkins webinar when I first started studying. She had a creative though complex notation system. Though it worked for her and I am sure others for RC when the test was on paper it really wouldn’t be applicable to the digital test…

@"LOWERCASE EVERYTHING" yes exactly, warm ups are not for learning and I wouldn’t time them or even score them. If people make a silly mistake and get a question wrong that is much better than someone losing confidence and questioning their abiliti…

You are very welcome!

I have two different versions of both my personal statement and diversity statement because each individual school has their own requirements. For my diversity statement I have one that is a page long and another that is a page and a half. For my p…

There are two ideas of warm up. Number one: To get your brain working and in the groove. Two: To inspire confidence in yourself and make you feel like you are going to kill games/ LSAT in general. So the “best” game(s) for you to warm up is a ga…

I would definitely work with a mix of different tests- not just the newer ones. Most students hope to take the LSAT only once but the majority of students take the LSAT at least a couple of times, particularly with these flex exams. I have heard s…

I am so happy to hear that you had registered for January and made this post before cancelling. I personally think even a few more points on the LSAT can go a long way this cycle. Good luck to you as well!

If you have a valid LSAT than law schools will take that every time over the GRE. Not only because you will need to use LSAC’s CAS system and LSAC’s policy noted above but also because the LSAT score is what is reported to ABA and also the relevant…

Yes it would be the Powerscore episode where they go over the August Flex. Keep in mind there was a totally separate issue with Macs in May. ProctorU is not great with Macs. If everything goes like it should the flex is a better experience than i…

LG was really difficult initially for me as well. When I started going through tests 1-35 ( where all the old/miscellaneous games are) I often felt like crying and giving up and that I was just never going to get what was supposed to be the most "l…

Personally I had an issue with my newer MAC computer in August. There was apparently a known bug ( according to power score podcast) and I literally spent over 6 hours trying to connect the first day and never could. There was also an issue with M…

I am a single Mom with a five year and work full time. Some advise that I would give to other Moms studying part time/ working is just to expect your journey to take a little longer from the beginning ( especially if you are looking for a 160 + sco…

Thank you for your feedback!

Did UC Hastings ask for an addendum for a cancelled score?? I definitely have one but would just assume they could see it anyway on a score report. I guess I will just follow @"LOWERCASE EVERYTHING" advise when doing apps.
-
Thank you in advance for taking your time to organize this and invite people who can share their perspective of applying to T-14's without a 170's score.

@"ashley.tien" , Yes the author does use the passage to show that science moves in non-linear bursts. But the difference between answer choice B and answer choice D here is weather the author thinks that is a bad thing/problem ( which is what answe…

@HelloMoto recommended this to me and I purchased the audible version very inexpensively. I have spent most of my time on the first portion as the theory and various examples and studies are fascinating! However; as he mentioned parts 2 and 3 are …

Whenever I read a RC passage I try to have three questions answered in my own words before looking at the questions. I am forming the answers to these questions as I am reading, but try to make sure I articulate them to myself before I going into t…

I am really excited about this. I am stuck at being able to cross the 170 hurdle on test day. I seem to consistently underperform despite having studied for so long. This really couldn't come at a better time for me.
-
Major congrats! It is always most inspiring to me to see these major score jumps.
-
You will need to email and confirm that the school will do this before applying. For example, I recently attended a UC school forum and UC Davis said they don’t wait on future scores unless explicitly asked by a candidate to do so. For UCLA if the…

I just wanted to share that I also had a horrible experience in August (there was apparently a known bug with Macs and ProctorU) and I spent more than 6 hours trying to connect and was never able to do so. But I had a much better experience in Nove…

I took the May Flex in Law hub. If anyone takes it there and needs help with any of the questions I would be happy to help. I missed 1 question per section, so I am comfortable overall with the material and can help anyone who is taking it before J…

While you should file a complaint, the retest opportunity has already passed. They will give you a credit for a future test but they will not give you score preview. I previously asked for score preview and they were very firm that it is only for …

Thank you for sharing this! I am waiting on my November score but my previous LSAT score is also under median for WashU ( it was well under my PT) so seeing this gives me hope. I attended the Wash U open house the other day and really liked what …
