How do you do when you take timed conditions out of the equation. If you really took your time to fully understand the passage and the questions. Have you tried this? I think the most important thing is to learn how to read effectively. The way that…
I don't think that's necessary. I attended an application walkthrough with an admissions officer, and they said the reason they ask what other schools you are applying to is for essentially polling purposes. They want to know if there are particular…
Nah dude, you can't hide anything from the LSAC. also, B isn't bad for ear training, I was a music major and got by with mostly C's in ear training. You either have an ear or you don't when it comes to that.
If you really feel like it's a big deal,…
@hotranchsauce @skiman2020, Your Cumulative LSAC GPA is the more important number. This is the GPA that is used for admissions decisions, as it is the one that is reported. Schools do see and consider your Degree GPA, but give more weight to the cum…
It's the trend that since the pandemic began and the LSAT was moved online, LSAT scores have risen, especially on the higher end. Many people attribute this to people having more time to study (especially last year when everything was shut down) and…
@Kbrookss Unfortunately it is true that you aren't allowed to speak out loud during the test, you can mouth words silently though. I'm sorry that happened to you though.
I think it would be okay to submit your addendum after the fact, if when your score comes out you feel it's necessary - still write it out professionally in a document and email the document to the admissions departments, though I don't know for cer…
Alexa, instead of cancelling due to the possibility of receiving a lower score and how that would look to schools, I would recommend you keep the score, and if it is lower, write an lsat addendum explaining why it was a lower score, as you have very…
Time management is the key. One tip that I learned which helped me (as much as It could) is to spend more time upfront reading and then be very aggressive in the questions. Don't allow time to second guess yourself, and only go back to the reading i…
You can also double check on LSAC if you go to your "completed application" section. click on the school and it will tell you if your application has been transmitted and if your CAS report has been sent to the school. This will just tell you that t…
It depends, some schools notified me within 2 or 3 days with log in credentials, some schools took 2 months to send me notification of receipt of the app, and just said they received it and didn't send status check log in info.
@taniyuhh Actually I have to disagree. This is the exact reason to write an addendum. With such a dramatic increase, It would be wise to include an addendum, just to say what was different between the previous take and this one. Perhaps you changed …
These are unique question types that are too uncommon/rare to have their own section. For games it's things that are not your typical sequencing/grouping but something other like spatial/circular games.
Totally Normal - I think most schools this cycle are waiting until they have a decent stack of applications to begin issuing decisions. A number of schools that I applied to on September 1st, say they won't issue decisions until January!
@kazoobaby -usually in the application, under the instructions it will say what the latest LSAT score the school accepts is. Usually it's after January. I wouldn't worry about sounding blunt. Just ask what you want to know - I probably wouldn't ask …
Agreed with the above. Also just so you have an idea of what happens when you send in your app - they have a team of people whose sole job is to check applications for completeness or mark them incomplete. Your application doesn't even get sent to t…
Personally, if I were in your shoes I would stick with the 159 because a 3.8 is a solid GPA. When it comes to retaking, you really need to weigh the odds about whether you can realistically score higher in January by enough of a margin to make a dif…
What are your law school goals? What schools are you shooting for? Unfortunately your GPA is going to be below the 25% at just about every law school you apply to. So you're going to want to get your LSAT as high as possible (above the median at yo…
@Ashley2018 makes a good point. Jan/Feb will probably be late for most T14 Schools. If you're considering schools outside the T14, you're probably going to be fine.
@NicktheGreek The cycle this year is different due to how crazy things were last cycle. There was a major increase in applications that caught most schools off guard. some of them sent out too many acceptances that they had to ask students to defer.…
