  • @akeegs92 said: @"Alex Divine" said: I'm really having trouble thinking of anyone on here or TLS who majorly underperformed their numbers due to lack of a certain type of work background. What do you mean by under-perfo…
  • Thanks! I love outside readings that help with the LSAT.
  • @"Farabian-Platonist" said: @"Alex Divine" Are these bundles more practice? Also, is there a specific vocabulary list that is needed to do well on the reading comprehension sections? If so, is this also included? Thank you for y…
  • @IAmhaHAA said: I'm watching all of the videos on how to break down each question on the 2007 diagnostic. What are some things I should take note of, or what did you guys do to get the most out of the explanations? I feel like I'm seeing how t…
  • I think a big thing is that you just started. Having a bit of trouble now as you're learning seems very common. I really like what every poster above wrote. It seems like @jkatz1488 and I have a similar LG background. Many LG questions are cookie …
  • @"Farabian-Platonist" said: Good day. I've been mulling over in my mind which study course to purchase. I am stuck between purchasing Ultimate or Ultimate+. I am currently off for the summer with a lot of time on my hands. It is my hope to sit…
  • @fmihalic2 said: Hm, that's interesting I think my case may be a "working smart" case rather than working hard. The only thing that I've changed is how I'm reading. I guess I'm reading faster but I'm actively thinking about the consequences of…
  • @apawalter said: Hello all! I finished the CC from the starter 7Sage prep and did a 1 PT, then I upgraded to the Ultimate+ and I am wondering if I should go back and finish the drills/problem sets from the CC that I now have access to bec…
  • @"Cant Get Right" said: Don't worry about it. As you know, my background is also food service, and my results have come through pretty much how my numbers suggested they should: Rejected at the tip top, WL in the middle (with a WL admit at my …
  • @JDtobeeee said: I am cosidering purchasing a package to complete the CC. For a bit of background: I previously self studied from January until June, with the intention of taking the June LSAT. As the test approached I wasn't scoring consisten…
  • @Zachary_P said: Hello friends. So now that the LSAT is behind me, I'm starting to think ahead to all things admissions. I'm hoping to have scored well enough to give HYC a shot (nothing against Stanford in particular; I just don't want to liv…

  • Why are you so unwilling to take and apply next cycle? Work experience is always a big plus, but relative to admissions it seems like just another good soft. Even as a server, you've got something to put down and I don't think it will keep you out a…
  • @goingfor99th said: I'm not sure what the question bank is, but it's probably similar to the Cambridge LSAT packets, which contain all LG from the first 38 tests sorted by type. I ran through those LG packets in their entirety 3 times before I…

  • @Kewlaidd said: I took your guys advice on the Wopex, great pencil, doesn't dull out easy and wrote consistently darker. But, the type of paper that we use for the LSAT really sux for pencils. I still feel that it was sort of slippery and not …
  • @"work all week" said: Logic games are just like any game. You need to keep practicing until you are good. Eventually they will come natural to you and you will be much faster. Very true! My only advice for LG when you feel this way is to …
  • @Freddy_D said: Man, @"Alex Divine" , you're like a pencil sommelier. Teach me your ways, sensei. Lmao! Freddy, my friend got me into nice pens freshman year of college. We had a weekly ritual of stopping into this big Staples near my colleg…
  • @danielznelson said: I object to @"Daniel.Sieradzki" becoming a Mentor! He won't friend me on Mario Kart!! hahaha! What system do you play it on?
  • @dishwasher said: In years past we're explicitly told to never make assumptions that aren't there and not involve common sense (i.e. operate only on information that is given and not a shred more). But now, for both RC and to a lesser extent L…
  • @"Cant Get Right" said: Treating yo self is an important part of the process leading up to test day as well! So, in othttp://imgur.com/CQhyZOD HAHA! Ice cream > LSAT

  • @"Daniel.Sieradzki" said: @asdf1234guy This is a really great question. I started out by doing games by type. I think this really helps you identify games and the best game board for them. You start to recognize similarities between games…

  • @"Cant Get Right" said: None of that is wrong @roychess , but like you say: @roychess said: Some of what works for the LSAT will not fly In a college class. We're really only concerned with the LSAT here. Not with a coll…
  • @tringo335 said: @"Daniel.Sieradzki" said: As the above posters have stated, your UG is largely irrelevant (just a soft factor/feather on the scale). What matters is your GPA and your LSAT score. This issue actually reveal…
  • @Lawyer007 said: Hi, thank you for the clarification. Of course! With RC feel very free to use whatever works for you. Don't become beholden to any one particular method and you will find your way!
  • @JustDoIt said: I would definitely take an at least two week break. You've been prepping for June and you can't just roll into December. You'll burn out real fast. Take a break, celebrate, and get back at it in at least two weeks. I agree. I…
  • @jowens7317 said: The professor I'm going to ask took a job at his alma mater 7 hours away so I can't ask him in person anymore. What is the procedure for asking for a letter of recommendation by email? For example what forms, information, etc…
  • @AndWhyisBwrong said: Hi Team, I've been perusing the comments and discussions and when it comes to the core curriculum (CC), I realize the importance to ensure you learn it all and remember it all. I am studying for the LSAT full-time and I j…
  • @tringo335 said: @"distasio.madeline" said: There's a fine line between being disciplined and flat-out abusing yourself. Truer words! I finally had to learn this before throwing myself off the roof. The best advice I'v…
  • @"distasio.madeline" said: Hi I've been studying for months (got the starter pack here to really hammer the last few techniques I need to master into my tired brain) so like you, I've been at this for what feels like a lifetime. I 100% hear y…
  • @mrodgers209 said: Hi Sagers!!! I have a question. I was wondering if anyone knew of anyone who transferred from a lower ranked law school to a higher ranked law school? If so, was it an easy process? Also, what did they have to have in o…
  • @dfletch5 said: I am in the same boat as well. I have a break in the summer. So, I'll be able to get two-Hour blocks for studying in the AM and PM. For now, I think you should concentrate on doing the most you can in 60 or 90 minute segments. …
