Deep breaths. Before July's test started, I actually closed my eyes for a bit and just chilled and thought of other things. I stretched a lot before going in and on break. This was my third time, and it was much easier, but there is still a ton of…

Depends on the school. Check out law school numbers.com or mylsn and see where people like you got with their numbers at various schools. Generally, I would say that you have a great shot of you're at or above 75% in both LSAT and gpa. If you're a…

Congrats!!

@CircleTurk said: @AudaciousRed sorry if I was unclear. No matter what I decide I'm keeping the 172. The question is just whether I should take the September test as well. Also after doing more research, I will not be applying to Columbia…

Realize that you are assuming that your test day will be great and nothing will go wrong and that you will come out with a better score for certain if you cancel and retake. Is 2 points necessary to achieve your goal, or can you do it with an early …

Take a look at your odds for applying ED and see what it says. Would 1 more point be better two months down the road, or would the score you have now do better if submitted early? You have to weigh this. Part of me is saying "Take it again!! Get o…

Let me suggest an alternative: focus on school and very little on LSAT, for now. If you haven't finished all your required classes, consider throwing in a symbolic logic class that could fill a requirement for your degree or be an elective. Philosop…

A year won't hurt. Your score is good and I don't think they care what administration the test was in, just if it is still valid and a good score. If you aren't ready to apply, I'd say to wait, hone your personal statement, get all your ducks in a r…

My very, very first attempt at a PT was a 151, pre 7sage. Immediately after the CC, it was 153 and I wanted to rage quit. But I kept going and my PT's improved with practice. The CC gives you tools, but practice is what improved the score. I took …

I wouldn't take all 3 of your shots back to back like that. Sep, October and November would blow through your limit pretty hard, and give you very little time in between to improve. Definitely retake if you feel your score was way under what you nor…

I read a lot of stories just like this on Reddit. Take comfort in knowing you were not the only ones this happened to. Biggest thing I can say to you is this: this was one time, on one day, and nothing more. It just wasn't your best day. This scor…

@Lanecaha said: I scored about 10-13 points lower than I had been PTing — I felt like I bombed RC but I don’t think I messed anything else up that majorly. I’m tempted to have my test hand scored but wondering if other think I should just acce…

Take some time off. Burn out is absolutely real. Slow down. Let your brain absorb it. Think about it,listen to some podcasts, come back fresh. I actually let study fall to the wayside my senior year. Paid off in massive gpa gains and when I came ba…

Same setup, only no writing section. So,yes. 5 sections, same timing and break. You have1 year to complete the writing section from the date of your test, and you can do it at home. If you've ever done an online college test that uses a LockDown br…

I researched what my choice school had to say about retakes. They said up to 6 -- assuming that it was positive increases over time and not huge up and down dips-- would probably be okay, but any more than 6 would raise red flags. That made me feel …

Congrats!!

Congrats!! You also survived! So awesome. I can't wait till you share your application successes!
-
Btw guys... I'm done! This was it! 9 point jump from my last test! I can't freaking believe it. In the immortal words of Chevy Chase: "Hallelujah! Holy Sh*t! Where's the tylenol..." Will share my application experience later, but for now.. I'mm…

@salonpapas said: What kind of pen and scratch paper did you guys receive to do LG? The stylus I had was a pen with a little rubber nub on the end. So, the stylus was the pen. Which was kinda nice. It's a basic ball point pen. Wrote smoothly…

I would keep your score, and if you really want to retake, do it. But I wouldn't cancel that 172. That is a great score. Remember, most schools just take your highest score. So, even if you bombed, you could just write an addendum on how the test da…

Congrats!!

I ran into this on the actual test in July and was able to catch it not too far into the game. Still, it ate time and I'm not sure I caught it all. I was kicking myself sooo hard over that. It's a dumb mistake. From now on, I am checking all my ru…

Not bring a watch for timing. There is seriously no need. The timer is up in the corner the whole time, and you get a 5 min warning.

30 degrees is the limit set by LSAC (meaning how tall it can get during test day.. they don't want other people being able to see your screen). The tablets could not be taller than the desk than 3" at any point, per LSAC. The stand is very adjustab…

You do what you can in practice to build up, but seriously... Jelly Belly makes caffeinated, electrolyte jelly beans ("sports beans"). It was a big pick me up that I think helped me. I wasn't nearly as tired at the end as I usually am.

I see them as being very similar. Maybe the only difference I can really tell is that the first Q says reasonably expect, where as the other says "will ensure". One is like "yeah, this will probably happen" and the other is totally sure that it will…

If your diploma and your transcripts don't say, then I don't think it matters. It's almost like saying you attended the west side campus. Nobody cares that much to have it be on your resume. The curriculum should be the same if it's properly accred…
