Hey guys,
My stats are 174 LSAT, 3.15 GPA from top 15 university, non-URM, and decent softs. I'm preparing my applications to send sometime next week. Blanketing the top 14 (minus HYS) and adding UCLA, Vandy, USC, WU…

Hi everyone,
New here so nice meeting you all. I'd like some advice on my next course of action given my situation.
I've written the LSAT twice and scored a 154 both times, once in September 2017 and once in Decemb…
My PS basically functions as my DS too.
I think @"Seeking Perfection" is right that you should write it on something else or don't write it. You'll risk taking away from your PS's "thunder."

@Alex Divine @Leah M B thank you guys so much. I ended up asking her if all else doesn't work out would she write me that positive letter and she said yes. Still, I'm moving on since I feel there are a few other professors t…

I was having similar issues. This helps. Alex Devine, thanks for the ever-thoughtful posts!
No problem! Trust me, I've been there... Games have always been my kryptonite.

Sounds like for some reason she doesn't want to write the LOR. If you were a good student, it's probably her being lazy or something. Some profs are just really against writing LORs for some reason. Same thing happened to a buddy of mine applying to…
I think like the character question, it largely comes down to which one will allow you to write the strongest essay. Being cliche isn't always a bad thing but standing out (in a good way) is a great way to outperform your numbers at schools like S.

If each game had pretty much the same structure and inferneces, I can see where this method would be helpful. However, my trouble comes in on brand new games where each set of inferences is unique and interact with ea…

PT26 G4 is a really tough game.

I didn't get the board format right on the first try. The conditional chain inferences were the key to this game for me.

Hey guys,
For those of you who video tape your PTs, can you describe your method? I want to record myself PTing – like the videos of JY's live commentary. Do you all use your phone or a tripod or headstrap...?? lol Cant se…

So, with 26.S1.G4 it is really more of hybrid game: double layer-sequencing/grouping game. Not an in-out-game.
What rules/inferences/questions did you find challenging?

Hi everybody.
I scored a 143 cold (done in June 2017) but I don't really consider it valid because I was sleeping through Reading Comp and barely taking the tests seriously. Regardless, my strongest sections were LR and LG. …

I completed the Starter course and took the Dec. exam, but scored below my goal score. I got a 160 (was PT-ing between 162-164) and my target score is 168-170. I'm registered for the Feb. exam and don't know if I should extend…
I'd say apply as broadly as you can in the T20 maybe with the exception of HYS (no merit scholarships) & CCN -- I just don't think you're likely to get big scholarships at these schools. Then again, if you can afford to apply, go for it!!
Your …

Should I finish the remaining couple of sections left in the CC and then go back and review what stumped me?
Yes. I think this is a good approach. I used to suck at in-out-games. Then I got better, but was still painfully…

I'm taking the Feb 2018 LSAT. Why is the Feb test so dreaded? Just because they report the score? Is that paranoia or is there some evidence that it is harder? Also, who takes the Feb test? June seems like overachiever…
