@"forest.dearing.2017" said: I'm excited to finally begin taking practice tests and wanted to know how others have simulated test day conditions most effectively. While taking the test in a perfectly quiet room at home seems unproductive, I'm …

Hey @"vanessa fisher" You won't automatically be out of the Yale race because of your GPA, but it will be a big reach, even with such a strong soft as a published book. There are always exceptions, and I'm sure there are a good amount of people wit…

@tanes256 said: Weren't there already BR study groups? What happened to those? I'm not sure if that's what you're looking for but hopefully someone in those groups will come along. Yeah, there still are BR groups. https://classic.7sage.com/…

@"Adam Hawks" said: @Alohalena I hear that Michael Wolff's new bestseller Fire and Fury: Inside the Trump White House is pretty salacious. But basically you just want to find a book that will not force you to think too much. Just relax, wat…

@HarvardHopefull Have you done PT C2? It's a test that was previously undisclosed but mostly likely a PT from the 60s series. It may be something to consider taking since you're all out of the newer tests.

@HarvardHopefull said: @"Alex Divine" said: If that's the case, using 1-29 might not be a bad idea. It might not be as accurate as a test from the 70s or 80s, but I think they're still similar enough to get a good idea of where you…

@cdawson1970 said: I turn 48 this week and take my first LSAT in Feb. Proof you're never "too old" for law school. Congrats on your journey and let us know how it goes in February. What schools/region are you interested in?

@LCMama2017 said: Hi all - I've been reading posts from months/years ago to recently about study groups. I would like to start one but I'm not sure how to go ahead and do it. Any advice from the experiences study group leaders? I am not…

If that's the case, using 1-29 might not be a bad idea. It might not be as accurate as a test from the 70s or 80s, but I think they're still similar enough to get a good idea of where you're at currently. FWIW, my test scores aren't that different b…

@dgnorton said: I have been taking more recent tests and this one was from 2001..could that be part of the issue/ are the more recent tests more accurate of what to expect on feb 2018 lsat? Yeah, the more recent tests are definitely going to…

@"sbc.mom_3x" said: @"Alex Divine" @Feb2018Taker Lakers fan here! Although I've been heartbroken from the void, and I can't get over it as much as I had hoped I would. I grew up watching him. Went to games every season. Saw him from …

How have you been prepping? How many PTs have you taken? 10 points is a pretty big drop. Are you sure you weren't just having an off day? Did you like totally bomb games or another section you usually do well on?

@ppcoelho1 said: I just did my kira interview for UT and cornell and I feel like a fell short on the video questions. I was wondering if sending a thank you for the opportunity/I could do better email would be a bad idea? I don't think it's …

Have you taken any PTs since you sat for the December test?

@"Idil.Beshir" said: Do you guys think a June write would help with scholarship negotiations and getting off a wait list? I’m so close to being in the 170s. I wrote in Dec and bombed LG with a -13 (scored in the low 160s)....I know I’ll be mor…

@hawaiihi said: @"Alex Divine" said: Wait, you mean PTs 25-33? Haha, nope, just the Logic Games sections of 35-33––that was about all it took to realize that my In-Out skills were severely lacking! Wait, just literall…

@splitter_saga said: Hi all, with a 2.92 GPA / 173 LSAT can I reasonably think about schools in the latter half of the T15 (#7-15) range? Or are those "reaches"? If they're reaches, where would my "targets" be? Some background: Econ/Poli …

@"alexandra.marlene" said: Hey all! I took Sept 17, and got a decent score. Not the score I want or need. But the dilemma begins: how do you shake the "where do I go from here?" vibe?? I did decently, LR being my weak point, and I'm a very …

I've heard good things from people online who did 1L prep programs. I say if you've got the money and time, go for it! From a cost-benefit analysis perspective I don't see what you have to lose. Seems like it would only serve to help you. Congrats …
