  • @jennybbbbb Hey, I think a few of those options sounds like they would make for good letters of recommendation! How to ask: You can ask in person or send an email. When you ask/email your professors for LORs, keep it pretty concise, but cover th…

  • What's important to understand when discussing minorities vis-a-vis law school is that only underrepresented minorities are considered when it comes affirmative action. Statistics show that Asians aren't underrepresented in law schools, so that's wh…
  • @luckieduckie96 said: Thank you guys for the words of encouragement, I really appreciate it! I am currently looking over the PT right now and reviewing the hell out of it, seems to be a pretty hard one for the LG (Superprep test C). I won't le…
  • You already have some under the syllabus of the CC! I believe they are under the lesson on SA questions.
  • @FutureSportsLawyer said: This happens to me all the time. I stretch and walk around everyone so often so I'm not super stiff. Also, I'm literally so extra and buy Groupon massage packages lol. I feel like I've earned them after this much prep…

  • @luckieduckie96 said: I have been studying for the LSAT for 4 months now and have been consistently getting 156-157, and have been working my way to 160. I took a PT on Sunday only to get a 152... and I am feeling extremely discouraged becaus…
  • @Gladiator_2017 said: @"Alex Divine" varies on how much time you have. I'd say anywhere from 30 minutes to an hour/1.5 is typical. Last time I went I was there for almost 2 hours since I also added cupping ($10 or 15 can't remember), which wa…

  • @Gladiator_2017 said: @"cfield.3" Thanks for the link to the video! I'm definitely going to try these out. Acupuncture does me wonders! There might be a community acupuncture spot nearby usually more affordable. Also, some health insuranc…

  • Always get up and walk around or even try study standing up if at all possible. Sitting down for extended periods of time is the new smoking. I also realized that how I was sleeping was causing a good deal of my neck and back pain. So I looked up s…

  • Definitely team LR. LR has always been my favorite and came somewhat naturally to me. However, it took me a long time and lots of work to get decent at games. My spacial reasoning skills are lacking. I think I like LR a bit better from my academic…
  • How quickly are you able to do the easier games? It's very important to get these done quickly to give yourself more time for any difficult games. Are you able to properly diagram most games without a problem and in a timely manner? I agree with @…

  • @TheMikey said: I feel like schools are just low key taking GRE scores now to just let people with high GPAs in to boost their numbers Yup! And like @"nicole.hopkins" said and the Harvard email posted above supports, likely schools will be e…

  • @AmateurProphet said: @"Alex Divine" Ordered some wopex pencils to use on my PT tomorrow... thanks for the rec! Of course! I hope you enjoy it as much as I have

  • I've been recording every timed section/PT I take. This way I can review where I was having trouble and see the actual context and review exactly where I got stumped. Otherwise I just circle the questions I have trouble on.
  • Yes, they give full rides at many law schools if you're a candidate with incredible stats. I plan on paying with a full ride scholarship and then using loans for any COL expenses. If that doesn't work out, I'll probably just wait and reapply until …
  • Practice running through the questions in 2 sweeps: First to eliminate 2-3 of the answer choices, and then second to choose between the remaining ACs. If you're having trouble eliminating you need to become more familiar with the ways that the LSAC …
  • I'm a fan of Manhattan's LR book and The LSAT Trainer. If you're solely looking to improve on LR, I'd probably pick up a copy of the MLSAT over the LSAT Trainer at this point in your prep.
  • Hey, @jennybbbbb Freddy's posted some very helpful links above to check out for sure. Many of the top schools have sample PSs on their websites. So definitely check some of those out. I'm also a big fan of the 7Sage primer. There are also a myriad …
  • @georgiana001 said: I am curious to gain some insight on how fellow sagers trained themselves into answering 10 questions in 10 mins and how you worked up to 15 in 15 and so on. Was it mainly drills or through timed PTs? I did both in order …
  • I suppose securing them all wouldn't hurt, but honestly, if it comes down to choosing, The head of your major and professor would be your best bet since they can speak to your academic credentials.
  • @theLSATdreamer said: @tringo335 @"Alex Divine" that and the skittles.. dont lie the moment i said sour skittles you started thinking .. mmmmm this guy knows what his doing.. its like he read my mind. I can't deny that when you mentioned sk…
  • @MPeabody said: @"Alex Divine" said: Definitely skip harder questions if you're not already skipping. You don't want to be needing every single second in order to finish on time. Do you think it makes sense to skip the easi…
