@djkrd92 you probably saw me there... guy with the beard in the blue striped tee and jeans... that would be me... among the last to leave the damn library... I love it here... and @alexandergreene93 we've already talked but congrats again man.
-
I may be wrong and if I am, pleas excuse my ignorance... but I see a lot of anxiety in your statement that you've associated with your goal... (1) if law school is your goal... you can only benefit from taking the test later... remember... not law s…

How do the grades show on your US university transcript? Pass/Fail?

improvement in LG alone would catapult you to the 160 + range... focus on drilling them and BR like your colleagues have advised you... its not uncommon to see improvements in the LG section in as little as a few days... 6 odd days before my exam i…

No idea... I had sent it in a message to a friend.. tried to access it... and its not there anymore.
-
and put in your apps now

you can still get into those schools with that score but if I were you I would retake...

That video has been taken down... I was trying to find it for a friend... I used to post it on here regularly... but its no longer there.
-
I know for a fact as an alum that UChicago DEFINITELY loves a why Chicago essay even though they don't specifically request it. Dean Perry and the other admission people want to know why you want to go there... and this is one of the best ways to sh…
-
But yeah... given the current trends... December is TOTALLY fine... you'll even be able to sneak in early apps at some schools... don't think about it too much and give your best to the test!!! May the force be with you... live long and prosper... t…
-
Um... no... living example... Dec 2014 LSAT - now at Georgetown Law... which would explain the late night forum lurking... when the brain is fried after a happy weekend's issue spotting, reading, outlining and legal writing. Yes this is the life. LO…
-
Well @orangepower20 you seem have answered your question yourself... you already know what your weaknesses are... and you know how to go about them... execute your plan... nobody knows you better than you but sometimes just voicing things out can he…
-
PT is the way to go... its one thing to learn the skills... its another to apply them in exam settings... you might also consider a session with a tutor... My session with @"Jonathan Wang" helped me a ton... it was just small things... like big game…
-
You do get better at it with practice but also... this worked for me... start stitching together sections... do 6 section tests... with a break after 4 sections... (do this with the older tests) and then with a break after 3 ( you need to do this be…
-
what @Alejandro said... and if you feel you are getting burned out... take a couple of days OFF - no LSAT... were you even thinking LSAT?? Uh Uh... go watch a movie... or 3 or do whatever it is you do... and then... come back to it... likely... the …

its a school to school thing... when I was applying I had a 2 page template and then an expanded version for some schools... have a basic two page template that you can edit - and tailor it to the institution you are applying to imo.
-
Also... maybe all that you need is a rest.. to help concepts sink in... very often... there is a jump in your scores after a rest because your concepts have cemented... and you've taken time away so you are seeing things clearer.
-
You have to have the stamina to take the test without getting fatigued so there's that... but beyond that its not the number of hours you put in but what you put into the hours that counts... for example... 6 hours a day with 15 minutes of FB each h…
-
yeah listen to her... @nicole.hopkins offers good advice here... start off with one and then go for a combined schedule like the one she is creating or one that you can tweak to your needs... jump right back in and the currents themselves will teach…
-
It depends school to school... but the general default action is to treat your application as complete for review as soon as they have a score... if you want then to wait, you can tell them that you are retaking and would like them to wait for the …
-
If you want to go go... if not, don't... its really up to you sure people will say no.. some will say yes... but do what you think you'll love doing and you will be successful and happy. Love what you do and you won't work a day in your life... Buil…
-
@nicole.hopkins one can wish and yes @"Jonathan Wang" that is correct... the only time that there was a variation was the first ranking of schools... that was 87... other than that, its always been stable...
-
@nicole.hopkins lol yeah I get it... 2 points well more like 3: (1) you'd be really REALLY happy in law school... (2) I don't have torts till next sem oh and (3) I have actually taught torts before
-
Lol @nicole.hopkins on does find time to emerge from the cracks of crushing 1L workload every now and then

@"J.Y. Ping" wrote a really good response to @Litian.Chen on this issue a couple of years ago... here it is: http://7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/301/how-do-you-evaluate-your-lsat-upper-limit Litian Now goes to UT Austin School of Law and is SUP…
-
Always had that when I was testing (i.e. both times)... I'd say let it play out... people tend to overthink things... at worst you'll probably test again... not worth stressing it... that episode of life is over and you can't change t... look to the…
-
If this is your first time, don't cancel... you might surprise yourself. plus the days when more than one score was looked on unfavorably are over... take it again though.
-
Yep... I was in your position... had my gramps pass away 2 days before the September test... I was in no frame of mind to take it. I canceled and sat the Dec administration. In hindsight, that was a fantastic decision.
-
That said back to the original question... BU and BC are peer schools for the Boston area and increasingly for the eastern corridor... so I'd take the school that offers you more money... BC (even though it is ranked "lower" than BU) will give you a…

Also placement rates at at least UCLA, Vandy, USC and UT Austin match some of the lower T14
