Thanks everyone! I forgot to mention that this was my second take- I took the LSAT in December when I knew I wasn’t ready just to have a score on record to apply. I’m going to take a break from the LSAT and see how I feel come summer- if I have the…

@hiyer1 at my previous LSAT an opera rehearsal began towards the end of section 4. The proctor’s phone also kept going off :@ I didn’t complain, but I wish I had! Three other people sent letters to LSAC about the test centre violations, one cancelle…

@amandajwashington I find that the best approach for me for this type of question is to negate it. It takes a bit longer but it ensures that I understand exactly what's being said, since when I'm speed reading a question I might miss nuances such as…

@aciss038 I went to McGill for undergrad and have several friends who went to LS there- they look really favourably upon multiple applications as long as there is improvement in your application the second time around. It shows a high level of inter…

@beezmoof I think you hit the nail on the head with the "Of the sights other than..." This question is confusing because of this sentence's formulation, and also because of the double negative you mentioned earlier ("only kinesthesia had NOT previou…

@hawaiihi the advice that I’ve gotten is to take your last PT no later than one week before the test. While I totally get the effect that a high PT score can have on your confidence, you already know what you’re going to score on the test- the avera…

@"Alex Divine" totally agree with both points, especially that admissions aren't looking to ding you based on your e-mail address. Meister could have been an unofficial name that she goes by e.g. stepparent's name, mom's maiden name, adoptive parent…
-
@stephgmeister I'm going to be in the minority on this one and say it doesn't really matter. Law schools aren't really going to be using your e-mail address as a factor in admissions. You could easily create a new one for LS apps, but I don't think …

@seeleycatie I’m in the same boat, but the idea of trekking to York every day for three years just depresses me haha

Congrats!
-
@"Seeking Perfection" hmm, so maybe tutoring won’t help me all that much. Thanks!
-
@"Seeking Perfection" yeah, that strategic advice is what I’m looking for. There aren’t really specific question types that stand out for me, so I think it’s more a question of timing and strategy.
-
@TheMikey @"Alex Divine" thanks for the recs! Did you guys work with these tutors personally?
-
@"Leah M B" thanks so much for your kind and helpful comment! I think you’re right about the time factor. I’ve been studying since August, but I work full time so I probably haven’t put in the hours. I’m just going to keep at it. Thanks for being so…
-
@"Maddie Distasio" thanks so much, that was really helpful! Just to be clear, is that option to place a hold on CAS? And more generally, are you happy that you decided to retake? I’m still a bit on the fence about my decision.
-
@"surfy surf" I also had a lot of trouble getting started. Just pick a topic (even if you don't think it's good), set aside a few hours, and write. Don't edit or delete anything, and don't judge yourself while writing. After you're done, send it ove…

@BrianW_101 I’m also an officer although not in the US army so I’d be happy to take a look and give you an idea of how it looks to an outsider
-
@"adi.pickles" whoa that’s awesome. What do you think the difference was?
-
@jerryguitarist No problem, good luck! Btw, do you know where we can see our GPA on OLSAS? I can't find it for some reason.
-
@jerryguitarist 3.7 is totally fine for U of T or Osgoode if you have a strong LSAT score. I went to McGill where it’s really rare to get a GPA above 3.75 and plenty of people I know got into U of T.
-
@"Alex Divine" I’ve been getting around -4 on LR, -3 on LG and -2/3 on RC. I’m guessing that it’ll be easier to improve on LG, but since there are two LR sections maybe it makes sense to focus on that instead.
-
Yeah, it's from questions that I don't return to. I guess you're right, I'm probably just going too fast.

I'm also interested! Feel free to PM me!
