Congrats! Very inspiring and heart warming. These posts truly keep me grinding when sometimes I want nothing more than to eat ice cream and cry alone in my room

I have become used to minimal to zero diagramming in LR. I can usually keep track of the argument premises and conditional reasoning in my head (I always bracket the conclusions and circles "some" "most" "all" etc). However, s…

it was definitely the pencil
Bro, I only had to change pencils once. The Wopex sucks for bubbling in answers though. Too god damn waxy. I'd still like to think the pencil had something to do with it

One added piece of information: It might not be ethical to apply to a school that you have absolutely no intention of attending no matter what solely in order to use them as leverage in negotiating w…

Hello!
Do you guys think that the LSAT for September will be similar to Preptest 81?! Or preptest 80? Or is it too hard to tell?
I think it will be very similar to both. The LSAT tends to evolve pretty slo…

I have been studying for the LSAT and I was doing great on the logic games however I am still practicing and have not taken timed exams of the entire PT. I would like to know your opinions on repeating PTs not necessarily…
I also agree with @AllezAllez21 that planning on only doing 3 passages is probably not the best strategy for those reasons. Though it may be something that works for you ... try it out!
@acsimon said:
Congrats on killing it, but I will say that I scored a 177 on this PT a month ago (still, my highest score) after coming back from a 3 week vacation overseas where I did zero LSAT studying.
That's not to say that you haven'…

I think it's pretty average. From a raw score perspective, I scored in the upper third of my range. From a scaled perspective, only a point above average.

@LSATcantwin said:
I took PT58 and landed 1 point higher than my average score haha so I'd say for me no. It was just another PT.
Confidence helps a lot though. Maybe that confidence boost gave you the skillz to pay the billz!!

I would think if they do eventually start averaging again, it would be a way off into the future. I also think schools will fight that as much as they can so they can keep …
@emily.grant491 Were there anything the games that gave you trouble had in common? Or were your wrong answers spread out through the section?
Are you particularly out of practice, or have you been drilling games since June?
Definitely an interesting read.
I think when/if we really have internalized all we need to know for the LSAT at a subconscious level that the idea of "unthinking" could be somewhat helpful some of the time. At the very least prioritizing what to th…

I didn't even THINK to look at what type of pencil I've been using. It's a Dixon. I'm horrified.
LOL I remember when I had that moment... The good news is it's not too late!
@doyera said:
@"Alex Divine" Thank you very much, that makes me feel a lot better. I'll see if I can get that professor to write the LOR but otherwise I will just roll with the professional ones. Here's to hoping I hit my LSAT target!
No pro…

Thank you for your input! Did you complete all the problem sets for the different question types or just did enough until when you felt confident that you were getting them correct? My problem right now …

I love the Hi-Uni pencils when I have to use wooden pencils! I'm Japanese so my mom always just had them around since I was a kid, and I do prefer them to most American pencils (sorry!).
Edit: and tha…
For LG: I recommend skipping more strategically; this means skipping global MBT questions and the like in order to tackle questions that give you additional information. These are not only generally easier, but they often require you to construct ne…

PT 35 is as far as I'm taking it, but will restart. Taking the next few weeks off as I prepare for the Sept Test and will restart probably first week of October.

I'm sure most people who score in the 170s probably don't spend time worrying about pencils, haha. > @sandypants said:

So I heard some schools prefer applicants to apply once as opposed to updating their application with a second LSAT score for reconsideration of admission. Does anybody know anything about this? I'm considering this for my Septemb…

So, here goes:
I graduated a little over 6 years ago and when I think about professors I could get strong LORs from, only one really comes to mind, the professor whom I did my senior thesis under. I had a good working relati…
