  • This thread is 2 years old. I hope OP got into her dream school! we should do a thread where we reunite with all the 7Sagers from years back and see where they are now!
  • @achen013 said: As I examine some back and forth here, I think its absolutely important to keep in mind that different LSAT strategies work for everyone, as @"Alex Divine" mentioned. Undoubtedly, there are a variety of ways of getting answers …
  • @goingfor99th said: I do my games differently than 7sage/JY, too, it should be noted. I was -.5 average for my last 10 LG sections before my test. Of course erasing is a selective strategy. I tend to find it useful often. Most games …
  • @Sprinkles said: Thanks for always having our back, JY.
  • @mzoodle said: 1. When we diagram, every time we finish dealing with a letter,we cross it out? 2. Every time a question says “this is next to this”, the word "next" means the spot immediately before or after? 3. Anything not mentioned in…
  • @"nicole.burdakin" said: The Amazon page says October 4th! Noice! Only a couple more months ... sweeeeet!
  • @tcookPHL said: @"Alex Divine" Columbia is my goal school! I would love to attend there. I started working on my PS this week but mainly focusing on the LSAT for now. My GPA is a 3.7, 4 years of work experience in Philly politics during underg…

  • @tcookPHL said: @"Alex Divine" wow, that is amazing! As previously stated, I am not banking on it whatsoever but it's very interesting to hear first hand accounts rather than just seeing a number! Amazing is right! I tend to believe most of…

  • @hon132 said: They use your best score, it doesn't matter when you took the test as long as you send everything in by the due date. A test 5 years ago will have the same weight as the one in December. Those schools are picky but it won't be ov…

  • @tringo335 said: @"Cant Get Right" @"Alex Divine" ah that makes sense Once you actually do it, and see yourself from an objective perspective it's a feeling I can't explain. It's like being on drugs. You can see yourself and see the mistake…

  • @gioaragon95 said: Yea, I would agree to everything above but at the end of the day like Alex says just focus on how far you can go on the LSAT. My evidence is very anecdotal but I have a friend who graduated from Berkeley with a 3.8 when she …

  • @Gladiator_2017 said: Hey! As a URM it has been so tricky to get a somewhat accurate sense of what my cycle could look like. A friend of mine, URM (Latina) graduated Yale with a 162 (or maybe a 163 can't quite remember). She had a 3.9+ GPA f…

  • @apublicdisplay said: @"vanessa fisher" said: At this point, I am mostly doing timed sections, and I'll probably do most of the 70s in timed sections as well. I'm also finding that full timed PTs are a waste if you're at a …

  • @ErlingRoald said: @theLSATgrind2017 I should have been more clear that I took the 2007 diagnostic about a month and half ago and will finish the CC at the end of July. I'm going to aim high and if I have to delay things a year to get the scor…
  • @ErlingRoald said: @username said: www.lawschoolpredictor.com It looks like the site you provided is using data from 2012-2013. Am I reading that correctly? Are reliable resources with current data available? Can I infer sc…
  • @tylerdschreur10 said: @"Alex Divine" Ok, but same question for lsac waiver, how destitute must I be to qualify? Because I can gamble away my paychecks on lotto tickets if it will help me save money. I tend to use my money card to buy Newpor…
  • @AerospaceFlight said: I would appreciate any feedback that anyone can give. I am applying to law schools this fall, and I am shooting particularly for YLS. How impactful will my softs be to overcome my not-so stellar UGPA (LSAC GPA 3.17) from…
  • URMS absolutely get a "boost" at most schools. This can be a touchy subject so I won't speak on anything other than the fact here. Different types of URMS get a boost. AA getting the largest "boost" So I will discuss the following in terms of AA UR…

  • @"vanessa fisher" said: @"Alex Divine" Yeah that makes sense re: essay. I think I'll probably do 4 or 5 at least, just to feel confident with knowing the kind of questions they give and the structure they like. Agree it isn't a major conce…
  • @MichaelTheArchAngel said: is 7sage going to make 81 available for Ult+ ? Yes, I am sure they will. In due time, most likely when the LSAC releases it themselves. My guess would be in the next 6 weeks, maybe 8. Again. Just a guess.
  • @uhinberg said: @"Alex Divine" said: @tringo335 said: Oh snap!!! I collect these books even though I have 1-75 on PDF and all the rest of the 10 actuals on Hard copy. I just like collecting these dam…
  • @BinghamtonDave said: @"Alex Divine" thank you so much for the kind words. When I get back to studying full time, I will hopefully put something together to give thanks to this great community. Awesome! I sincerely cannot wait, my brother!
  • @uhinberg said: @"Alex Divine" I think that @jennybbbbb would like for you to drop some LSAT knowledge about her concerns about being at a disadvantage with the December LSAT. Personally, I think that the potential gains from a higher LSAT ou…

  • @navilsat said: @"Alex Divine" thank you so much Alex! I always look forward to hearing your advice. I think over-confidence with RC really hit me hard, and I kinda let go of the fundamentals during logic games for two whole games. I will cont…
