@Mellow_Z said: @TheoryandPractice I definitely agree. It isn't for everyone. You/whomever obviously know your mental limitations and capacity better than anyone. If you have the means (financially) to study full time, I would say it's goin…

@tcookPHL said: Thank you so much guys!! @"Alex Divine" as far as a BR protocol how do you guys go through BR? Is there a template you use? I"m currently doing this: Question Type: 2: Premise 3: Conclusion/ Argument 4: Ty…

@tcookPHL said: Hi everyone! I just finished my curriculum and planning on taking the June LSAT. What study schedules have worked for you and have made you successful? I'm finding it difficult to get into a rhythm Like Justdoit said above me…

@TheoryandPractice said: Thanks so much Alex! Yeah my goal is to review (and try to memorize) 5 logic games a day and solve another 5. Total 10 a day till June. Hopefully this works. I purposefully started with LR and RC (mostly LR) fi…

@Treyes711 said: All the test sites in and surrounding the NYC area are full for registration for the June LSAT. The options are to either be on the waitlist or go to Philly (Philly is the closest site based on my NYC zip code). Does anyone kn…

I essentially ended up doing most of the CC twice because the first time I sort of jumped around and thought the books I used before had prepared me for the "lawgic" and how to master this test. 7Sage's methods are different and newbie or not I thin…

@TheoryandPractice said: Hey thanks everyone Just wanted to write to muster the courage to face the uncertainty that comes with LSAT prepping. I'm gonna try study full-time and give my best for the June exam. I think that's an awesome decis…

@golfinguru11 said: I understand it is advocated by JY, specifically in MBT, sufficient/pseudo assumption and parallel reasoning questions. Even if one seems to be getting nearly every question correct without writing the conditional logic dow…

@TimLSAT180 said: I'm sure a lot of people on 7sage know what you're going through (including me), and really there's no need to be upset about it! Don't let the score of a single timed individual LR section bring your hopes down. You've just …

Hmmm... I can see how this can be a really hard decision. Congrats on your LR/RC improvements. LG will come with some consistent practice and time. First, understand that regardless of whether you take the job or not you don't have to and shouldn't…

I think if you were scoring in the 170+ range you should consider a retake. It might be hard emotionally to leave, but with a 170 and a good GPA you could have many more doors open to you. I guess it depends on what job you are gunning for essential…

I'll play the devils advocate here: I don't think diagnostics are always necessary. I took one about 2 weeks into my studies and it just seemed largely a waste in many respects. I got like 9/23 logic games correct, and missed -8/9 on each LR and lik…

Amazing! Congrats!!!

Welcome @JustDoIt !

If possible take in September. However, I think with some adjustments you will be fine whenever you take it. Like others above me said a change in sleep schedule can do wonders, as well as a change in diet and exercise. That said, back to my origina…

I took french from 7th grade until senior year of college and I can speak it pretty well. Unfortunately, if is one of those things where if you don't use it, you lose it... Maybe I'll brush up a bit and we can have a convo in French or something. Ar…

@AstralCzarina said: Hey guys! So I graduate in may and I'm looking to move to Texas to gain residency. I am going to apply to UT next year, and one of their admissions criteria is geographical diversity, so they're looking for underrepre…

Looks like I know where I'm going next year!

@"Chipster Study" said: I find it interesting that almost to a person, every lawyer that I have spoken with about my plans say, "Don't do it." Yeah, basically same story. There are definitely some exceptions, but the studies show lawyers are…

So I think it really depends on the job, hours, requirements, and what exactly the job entails. I recently decided to leave a job due to unpredictable hours and mandatory work on weekends at least 2-3 weekends a month. However, I think if you can fi…

I think you'll be fine! I tend to think of LSAT watches to be a bit of a rip off. I had a 180 and eventually just got a couple of cheap ones from Amazon when it started acting wonky. The key is making sure you are used to it on game day. And it does…
-
Great choice! I've never heard anyone regret giving themselves more time to prep and take this test. 99% of regrets with the LSAT are people who wished that they had started earlier and had more time to prep! Congrats on making the hardest, but ulti…

Congrats on the improvement and the motivation to not give up faith! Faith in yourself is quite underrated wrt the LSAT.

It depends on the proctor, but I have heard of people getting kicked out for not putting pencils down immediately. It would be in your best interest to get used to having everything bubbled in before your pencil needs to be down and time is called.
-
I bracket the conclusion on all LR questions, but that's just me. DEFINITELY break down the argument for BR though.

@combsni said: @"Alex Divine" that's interesting information on mid law. I imagine that it depends a lot on the location of the firm as well. Michigan only has 4 schools, not including Cooley. Yeah -- location is a big factor with everythi…

I got a PM and ended up having a really great convo and just wanted to add a couple of things: Don't let this discourage anyone from working full-time and studying. It is possible and tons of people do it. It was the nature of my work that led me t…

Definitely have to agree with all of these things! Great list with straight forward insight.
