I did the mid-day testing in June. I think I was out in about 4.5-5.5 hours total, start to finish, including break. We didn't have any massive delays.
I've had at least one school send an offer that they would pay the application fee plus waive their own. So, some schools do this.
But I would probably not ask a school to do this for me. If I have a waiver of the school application fees, that's p…
Hey.. no sweat it. What is a community for if it's not for support? Definitely sounds like you need a break tho. Walk away for a few days and clear your head.
And here my gut reaction was: "As large as it was when it was unfolded." Folding it doesn't change it's size (as nothing is added or removed), merely it's shape.
Hi there!
So.. here's the thing abut DNA tests. They have a little disclaimer on them most of the time that says they are for entertainment purposes, and not to be taken for serious matters. Why? Because they are imperfect. Nine months ago, I h…
What is it they say? An A+ PS with a B- Diversity statement just means your diversity statement drags down what would otherwise just be an A+. If it's not good, leave it out.
LoL. Please tell me ya'll are joking. At this rate, my gpa and lsat difference is going to just confuse people. Maybe that would work in my favor, tho.
So... sounds like doing online classes where I have to stay on top of things and essentially teach myself will pay off. LOL
Thank you for coming back to let us know what things are like and how things relate to what we know now. I can't tell you …
Gaps happen, especially to us non-traditional types. Hell, I have a gap of about 7 years during my Associates. Easy enough to explain, and I did some consulting work during that time, so I don't see it as a big black mark. A few months here and the…

Is taking the LSAT in November considered too late?
This. How late is too late to be taking the LSAT for the cycle? EDIT: NM.. I went back over …
Oh wow. This is awesome! I can't be there for it, but I look forward to viewing the recording!
Will there be a Q&A, or is it more just letting her speak about her experience? Any wisdom and insight she imparts with us is great, but I was cur…
@wrhellams point had me looking into scholarship opportunities for Syracuse's program. In their FAQ, it states:"Limited merit-based scholarships will be awarded to selected incoming JDi student during the admission application process. The College…

From the research that I have done on this you will not end up saving money by going online. The tuition to both programs when I inquired was the same as their on campus programs. Scholarship money is essentially non existen…
Hamline has one, and Syracuse is starting one next year, with ABA blessing. It has my attention, too. Half online, then visits to the campus a couple times a semester for hands-on training? Sounds good. I have been weighing it heavily. Possibly les…

Retake or aim for a regional school where you will get a lot of merit scholarship money.
It certainly isn't impossible, and it's just money to apply... but I think Oshun nailed it. If your goal is t25 and you dont want to pay s…
This test has nothing to do with smartness. None. I rock an excellent gpa and passed a mensa test at 99% (not online, a real one). But the lsat throws me for a loop. My brain is naturally wired for out-of-the-box ideas and artistic endevours. I love…
Forgive my grammar. I am tired, and I had a major malfunction on a final tonight that has to be cleared and redone tomorrow. Nothing quite like the horror of computer malfunctions.
@oshun1 said:
Why not make the test on paper but the answer sheet digital. Instant score results, but no eye strain from staring at the computer.
Because that makes sense..? I dunno.
My concern is with scrolling back and forth. I did the …

So they're saying if tuition is $60k, and veteran's benefits would put $50k toward that, and you were eligible for a $20k merit scholarship, they'd reduce your merit scholarship to $10k just so the additional $10k overage i…
Yeah. I've read fine print at various places that say things like this. Got a scholarship and you get an outside scholarship for a set amount? They'll use that one first and reduce their scholarship by the amount. Even merit based. It's the worst i…
No worries. I did poorly in June. I think I was just so wound up and burned out, and then... flop. I'm signed up for November, but school has been running me absolutely ragged this semester. At this point, November will be an experiment for me: wil…
They do! ABA expanded their rules in the past couple years (including this year) which allows for a very significant portion of classes to be done online now. Mitchell Hamline seemed to be the test, and now that those graduates have graduated, and a…
What did you do before all this? I would so pick up gaming and art projects again. I haven't had time to do much of anything lately. Movies and TV shows have gone by the way side. Or sleep. I have about a year to catch up on. LOL
