@"Leah M B" said: I’m guessing there’s not a large contingent of Crazy Ex-Girlfriend fans around these parts (everyone should be though - guys, it’s so good), but the show just gave us a new anthem for aspiring law students. Enjoy. I'm lmao,…

What benefit can you get out of a retake? I highly suspect that there is any school that will not take you now, but will take you if you get a few points higher on the LSAT. Even if there is a school that will be moved by your retake, the risk of …

Fool proof games and listen to the first episode of the 7sage podcast. Josh gives really good advice on speed. One of the many things I agree with him on is that the change from 160-170 mostly comes from timing strategies, but for your situation, yo…

This essay has great direction. Reading it felt like a funnel that naturally lead to the application. Is it ok to be so narrow with the subject though?

I think the two options aren't mutually exclusive... See your family, but study in the most consistent way you can.

@NotMyName said: @Bamboosprout I'm curious. How did you explain it? In boring fashion. Just the facts. I said that I had prepared for my 159 but redoubled my efforts following that--improving my study methods and eventually t…

@NotMyName said: I think so. Just keep it brief. I submitted one to each of my schools since my scores were pretty wonkey (159>164>174) I'm curious. How did you explain it?

Congrats, friend! Hard work can eventually pay off!

Congrats! That's a really strong score. Definitely keep up the good work, or work even harder. This is a good sign, but you obviously have plenty of space to improve. You can work on reducing the errors, and increasing consistency and speed. Focusin…

The world is tough. You can't have your pie and eat it too. You simply won't get into schools that need 170 with a 162. So even if you take the november test, there will be no point in applying to those schools anyway. The the only choice you have i…

@Harvey_l said: I heard the mylsn calculator is a far more reliable indicator of law school chances? Perhaps. They probably have the large pool of data to work with, so that helps. Except the lsac calculator, of course, has more data, but do…

@akistotle said: @Bamboosprout @tekken1225 7Sage's Law School Predictor doesn't use law school medians to calculate your chances; it uses historical data from Law School Numbers. 7Sage trained it by plugging in about 400,000 self-reported…

@keets993 said: Did you also post this as a comment somewhere? Oh, maybe. I might have posted as a reply to someone and then thought that I should share it with others.

LSAT rewards those who persevere, and what is life if not one long journey of perseverance. If you want it enough, then you will be able to do it. Temper your expectations, and go about it incrementally. Getting to your goal may takes months, if not…

@soomies said: I've been stuck at 137 for quite some time now. I am good with LG but poor with LR and okay in RC. I really need some direction. Have you taken the course yet? I firmly believe that if you've taken the course, there is not way…

I think in general, listing out the schools can only hurt you. For my case though, I think it doesn't hurt, at least not as much, because not one of the schools I'm applying to is comparatively more prestigious or difficult to get into than another…

I'm not sure if I understand the question properly. If the question is why do you have to do so many, then it's because quantity is important, if not necessary, for fool proofing. If the question is why do you have to do so few, then it's because…
