I personally would suggest that you do those sections of the CC again. I did every section at least two times. Do the questions and write out your reasoning before you look at JY's explanations. Then, supplement it with the question bank with simi…

Sounds great, hahaha Just make sure you don't make it "sound like I only want to become a lawyer in order to be like my dad and have a family business handed to me someday (which, for the avoidance of doubt, is not the case)." Spice it up a bit, an…

I think stress occurs most often for students like us when we place unrealistic hopes on things we know aren't likely to be possible. Don't think about getting a specific score. Just think about improving as much as you can, and getting a score that…

@rkathleen said: Hi everyone, just an update. I am now consistently scoring around 162 with a few 160's and 164's! This is, as others suggested, from scoring better on Logic Games. I think doing all prep games helped, because I kind of learned…

I think it has a marked degree to do with genetics, personality type, and up-bringing. 1. Genetics. Brains are all wired differently, and everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Some people simply are wired better for logic. I have a frie…

Hey there, fellow British Columbian... hahaha. I think you definitely shouldn't give up. As for November though, I think you can make a 5 point jump by then if you put in a solid 20+ hours a week every week, but still, it might be a bit of a rush.…

@"Mia Fairweather" said: @studentservice yes I received it thank you! i would maybe add the live commentary links on the page for the PT explanations, unless you are looking at the explanations of PTs on the syllabus it doesn't show that many …

There is no point in applying if you don't have the lsat score suitable for the schools you want to apply to. If you have to delay to get that score, then you have to delay. There's no real alternative, unfortunately. Drilling is important. You ca…

If you want the proper result, you have to practice properly. Test yourself in the most realistic/harsh conditions, and go through the curriculum properly. Just doing test questions with no forethought or afterthought or purpose will not yield resul…

I think you have a very good chance of getting accepted already. Just make sure your softs are strong as well. You'll definitely be high-middle of the pack if you apply now, but that's not a bad chance.

@"Leah M B" said: I would say yes to 1 and no to 2, unless you talk to the prof and ask if he would be able to write a strong letter. A letter from a prof that describes you as just an ok student won’t help you get into law school and could hu…

@octablue said: Do you guys know if Kira records during Cornell's written questions? I'm thinking of having some notes as prep but I don't think it would look good if they see me glancing at papers, even if its for the written questions only (…

Doesn't it just depend on your determination and will? Only you know yourself if you can/should/will retake or not. If it were me, I would retake, because I think I there is always room for improvement.

Yeah, right now, my goal is just to have at least one academic letter, and my professor has already submitted it to lsac, so that’s taken care of for now. Good idea. I should review the LOR video.

@akistotle said: Hey @Bamboosprout @"Mia Fairweather", Ahhh, I see. Sorry. Wasn’t too sure who to ask, and only remembered David. ?

It should be actually JY doing the passage at a desk. It might be locked behind the Ultimate+ paywall, unfortunately.

@drbrown2 said: I believe LORs should demonstrate an applicant's work ethic and academic ability. You want to come across as a potential all star student and someone who will be dedicated to your studies. I've had a professor ask me about my l…

Woah. Congrats! That's unbelievable! Thanks for sharing this experience.

Not sure if I will be a high scorer, but I think this might help: Simulate the real experience, and induce even more pressure. - So you should always use the 7sage proctor. For me, I turn it down to 32 minutes and max out the noise and distractio…

I think it's better to go with official definitions here. When you see any data that is related in some way, then it can be call correlation. I agree with Chaim, in that I see no reason to add another word to describe what is occurring in this stimu…

@ChaimtheGreat said: I had the word schlep which isn't technically even a curse or slang word (it's just Yiddish) but was told to take it out. Better safe I think. TIL what Yiddish is.

We're all in it together, mate. Let's all review that test together
