  • From what I've read, the simple answer is "no." Most schools, including those in the T14, will take your highest score. If there is a significant increase in score, you may want to explain what happened. I believe Yale (correct me if I'm wrong) is …
  • @zkchrumz Truth be told, I didn't. I asked around, figured out what worked for most people, averaged it, and gave it a shot. My first time pre-PT drilling didn't go so well - I felt tired by the start of section 1. Second time, I didn't do enough - …
  • I myself am holding off on sending my apps. They're pretty much ready to go, I just have to pay the fees and hit that send button. That said, I think you have to be registered for the Feb test for law schools to know not to begin reviewing your app.…
  • @"Alex Divine" Agreed, 100% The younger generation tends to hold a less conservative view regarding tattoos. They're so prevalent in today's society, that we (younger generation) don't see a problem with them. But, keep in mind, the person intervie…
  • @sweetsecret This is a solid explanation. @"Alex Divine" Agreed! As a rule of thumb, if you were not 100% sure why the correct answer was correct, or why all 4 wrong answers were wrong, that warrants circling and reviewing the question. Disclaimer:…
  • Enough to where your brain is fired up and ready to go. But, not so much that you begin to contemplate torching the PT before taking it. @"Cant Get Right" said: I do the equivalent of about 1 section. 1 RC passage, 2 games, and then the first 10 …
  • That looks similar to my study schedule. Kept at it for 6 months with no burnout, so you should be fine. However, be open to modification - you might start to get that "#@$! the LSAT!" mentality (if so...take a longer break!)
  • Sure! Drop me a message here so I can give you my email. Unless, you can attach docs via the 7Sage messenger.
  • You're right about the correlation between physical activity and high scorers. However, one thing to keep in mind is that a ton of those high scorers claim that a simple 30 minute job sufficed during their prep. One of the worst things about LSAT-p…
  • Correct. "Without" and "Unless" = chose either variable, make it the sufficient and negate it, and leave the other variable in it's non-negated form and make it the necessary condition.
  • You should research your target schools. I know that the majority of schools that I am applying to do not give you the option to start in the spring. Either you start in the fall, or wait for the next cycle.
  • I like to think of the premise as the explicitly stated sentence(s) in the argument. The "support" is how that premise aids in making the conclusion more plausible. Often, the support is something that they want you to assume - but, if the argument …
  • Most people who see a significant increase after only preparing for an additional 1-2 months probably tanked one or more of the sections on the previous LSAT.
  • Show'em how it's done! Good job, bud!
  • @montaha.rizeq and @lawschoolstuff16 Thank you! I'm glad to hear that there aren't 2 $75 fees, haha. I do have a few fee wavers, and I will be emailing a couple of schools to request waivers. Unfortunately, I attended the 2015-2016 law fair, so th…
  • @chgunns Both LRs were decent. The first somewhat easier than the second. I didn't have a second games section. My experimental was a RC...which was horrible (could have been the whole RC - LR - RC ordering that threw me off, though). Non-experiment…
  • 1) Like @"Alex Divine" said, you request one transcript, and the LSAC will provide that transcript to whichever schools you are apply to. 2) If I'm not mistaken, the "hold transcript" option is for those who are still in school and have no receive…
  • The best advice I can give is, stick to the prompt. If they tell you to write about anything, than writing about anything (well...somehow relate it to law school). If they ask you why you want to attend their law school, that's what you'll write abo…
  • @chgunns said: LG4: LOLNope*s Hahahah, my sentiments exactly.
  • @"Dillon A. Wright" said: They're not necessarily hard, just different. This! The reason why most people find games easy is because they're very mechanical. You see a game, you figure out the type, you diagram, find inferences, and you're set. Wi…
  • @"Tina Cho" It can go both ways. ED can help with scholarship money, since you are applying early. However, keep in mind that schools know that you are obligated to attend, if they admit you. Why offer you money, when they can use that same scholars…
  • @lawschoolstuff16 That's great to know, thank you! 2 page CV it is.
  • @lawschoolstuff16 Nope, not my case. I worked pretty much all throughout college. But, sacrificed my social life so that I could keep my grades up, lol. Ugh...I think I may have to submit a 2 page resume. I have a handful of volunteer positions to …
  • I'm in the same boat! I've been told what @lawschoolstuff16 has mentioned. However, I was also told that law schools want to know if you worked throughout college. Kinda tough to relay that information if we're encouraged to cut non-law/non-voluntee…
  • @a.ruqaiia I used the problem sets on 7Sage. However, any packet that organizes LR by type and difficulty should do.
  • Don't PT if you're only getting 8-12 wrong. Watch the lessons for every LR question type. Drill an easy, medium, and difficult problem set. Keep drilling until you've developed an efficient plan of attack. Do this with every question type, and you'l…
  • Ugh, I'm the same way! During the day, my brain wants to go into hibernation...at night, it want's to study up on quantum physics. Anyhow, the ingredient in Zzzquil that causes sleep is diphenhydramine (an antihistamine, the same one found in Benad…
  • 1) As a general rule of thumb, yes ED does increase your chances of getting in. By how much? No one can tell you. At the end of the day, law schools worry about whether or not applicants will actually attend (hence why some will reject overqualified…
  • In order: 1) Figure out what's causing you to run out of time. If a particular question type is giving you trouble, drill it. If you're overthinking, work on that. If you're spending too much time upfront on certain questions, start skipping. 2) E…
