OK so 1st I would stop taking 2 PTs a day and never do this again.
Next I would take a few days off.
Next I would reflect a little bit before recommencing your studies, asking yourself:
Why is it that I am making the same mistakes? What can I do…

Also have you taken a diagnostic yet and if so what did you get and what is your goal score?

K if that's the only instructions they provide, then I would just send a professional email to their admissions office asking if you can provide a diversity statement in your addenda. I think it's a safe bet to say they wouldn't mind at all answerin…
Hi there, to answer your 2nd question: this is something that is 100% out of your control. The time you spend ruminating over law school admissions data is time lost, never to be retrieved, that you could've spent making yourself a better candidate.…
I would just make some flashcards:
contrapositive
(front)
A -> B
/B -> /A
(back)
VALID
converse
(front)
A-> B
B -> A
(back)
INVALID
inverse
(front)
A -> B
/A -> /B
(back)
INVALID
And just drill them until it…
Hi there, I heard on the Powerscore podcast that on the LSATs as of late you can count on Passages 1 and 2 being generally easier than 3 and 4. I'd do a little more research to confirm this but in any case I hope this helps.
As far as identifying w…

Hey @"Frank Dawson", what RC strategy are you using? Like if I put an RC passage & questions in front of you, can you walk me through what steps you take from start to finish? This would he…
Hi there, I'm pretty sure you'll be OK with the same LORs but the prevailing wisdom I've heard on using the same Personal Statement is hard no. Try to think about something you've learned this past year as a result of having to delay -- this could b…
Hey @"Frank Dawson", what RC strategy are you using? Like if I put an RC passage & questions in front of you, can you walk me through what steps you take from start to finish? This would help me in offering any advice I can.
I think a good place for you to get your work experience across and perhaps also incorporate what you learned from starting a business is in your Personal Statement.
GPA addendums are to describe why something out of your control impacted your grades. The fact that you started a business so early is fantastic, but I think you run a high risk of coming across poorly if your story is that your grades were low beca…
Your questions beget more questions before answers. Have you taken a diagnostic yet? Where are you in the CC? How much time per day can you devote to studying?
@McBeck418 Sorry for your experience but really happy that it sounds like you've had a tremendous rebound. To me this sounds like it could fall into addendum territory but I think you're exactly right with what you said above - it's all about how yo…

I'd reach out to the law schools you're interested in and ask! Who knows, they may make an exception or provide better guidance than we can.
@Keena_86 -- This as well! This is great advice.…
There is a substantial minority of law schools which do not require LORs. Temple Beasley School of Law being one of them that I know of. You'd have to do some research to find others.
That being said... I would still strongly advocate for obtaining…
Hi there, the admissions deans of YLS & HLS address this question @ minute 3 in ep.1 of their Navigating Law School Admissions podcast. Hope this helps!
Hi there, I recommend checking out the 7Sage Podcast, specifically episodes where JY talks with 7Sagers who achieved high scores. In these convos they talk at length about what's on your mind here and offer a ton of great insights IMO. Episode #15 w…
I'm thinking this person's intuition is correct. No arguments present in either Lesson 11 Q2 or Lesson 16 Q4. These are merely reports on what scientists (L11 Q2) and state researchers (L16 Q4) have concluded. There are no authors present who then t…
Sorry to hear about the rough times you are going through. I trust you'll be able to forge ahead. I concur with what @tahurrrrr said above. Pick yourself up and lay out an updated roadmap, and then place these milestones aside and devote your attent…
Unless you are a child prodigy, The Economist will have you breaking out the dictionary for easily about 2-4 words/expressions per paragraph. This publication is also well-backed for improving your ability in RC. I realize this doesn't answer your q…
@Hannahbalas18 How are you doing on MSS questions? If you're strong on MSS, you can approach MBT questions the same way and then just do a final validity check on the answer choice you think is right to ensure you have a valid argument in front of y…
