Thank you! @ Msmith85 I can't tell you how much it means to me that you shared your story.
@ Bonjoursm I appreciate the advice and helpful tips. Thanks so much:-)
First off, congrats, that is awesome. Secondly, Thank you. I'm retaking the LSAT in October (LSAT Round 2). I needed the encouragement, hoping to be telling a similar story later this year. :-)
Already at no 1 on Amazon's bestseller list and its not even out yet :D : http://www.latimes.com/books/jacketcopy/la-et-jc-harper-lee-book-topping-chart-20150204-story.html
No keep it at home... test centers can be really strict about that...
and you don't want any sort of hassle on test day. Again.. personal experience... long story but suffice it to say, better sure than sorry...
Great! So there are a few of us, though at different points in the course. If nothing we can use this group to discuss our problems, worries and share our story. :)
OMG I second this book recommendation. It is such an incredibly story and I think will resonate with a lot of LSAT studiers (especially those that believe there is a "natural" cap of intelligence barring them from a 160/170/180)
The advice that I've heard from friends too is, in situations where a consultant could make the greatest impact, the onus is even more on you to tell a personal story. I know that this is very true for Berkeley.
