  • @"SF City Du" said: Would appreciate all and anyone's thoughts on this. The largest scholarships I received were to good schools in New York, but I have always planned on moving back home to California after law school. Is it normal to NO…
  • @StretchForHYS said: While I do understand a lot is factored into the probability of gaining admission to any certain school, I am turning to my fellow 7sagers for some insight. I graduated 4 years ago with a (LSAC calculated) 2.65. I’m d…
  • @johnwashere31 said: So I am in serious need of advice from others on here because I don't really know any people who have my issue/are serious about the LSAT. I would greatly appreciate any and all of your advice regarding how I should procee…

  • @pstroud97 said: I just took the June 2007 PT after finishing most of the CC (I was too afraid to take a diagnostic - bad idea, I know, but oh well). I scored a 162 and only a 163 on BR - is it realistically possible for me to improve to an av…
  • If you are talking about name recognition within the general population then this isn’t even close. Everyone knows Notre Dame primarily from their sports programs. GW probably has more pull in DC biglaw, but as people have mentioned these are diffic…
  • @splitter_saga said: Checking in as I too am weighing UVA @ sticker (250k debt burden upon graduation) vs. WashU with a nice scholly (90k debt burden at graduation) and Wisconsin with 30k debt. Also sitting on 4 T14 WL's FWIW. I would lik…
  • @"paul.sellari" said: Hello guys, I read somewhere that they take all your LSAT scores and average it out. Is that correct? So, should I try to only take it once? I've also seen some discussions here about it but I'm a little confused. th…
  • @DivineRaze said: The section I have the most trouble on is Logic Games, Ive drilled and fool proofed many many games but I still end up missing around 5-7 questions on preptests. If I can improve on my LG I will be borderline at 170. I was wo…
  • @FixedDice said: @"Pride Only Hurts" said: only 62% of UVA grads took on Jobs at Large Firms. That's really low for a high ranking school. I think typically the number is closer to 80%. It's actually quite decent. If I'm …
  • I don’t know much about WUSTL, but on Virginia’s website they state that the class of 2017 placed 175 graduates into firms with 501+ attorneys. Median starting salary for the class was 180k. Class of 2017 also placed 28 people in federal clerkships…
  • @"Pride Only Hurts" said: @CRLSUUUU said: @"Better every day" I think the most important thing for RC is reading for structure. And also knowing exactly where the evidence comes from in the text. Once you start reading for those bi…
  • @CRLSUUUU said: @aleland13 Ahhh thanks for all that info. I think I'm gonna start with the retakes and examine closely what I'm getting wrong like you suggested. I am still hesitant about the trainer because I feel like I might be spending…
  • @CRLSUUUU said: Hello all, I've been around the forums for a while but I have yet posted anything asking for others' advice on how to approach this test (usually only specific questions from the PTs) Recently I've felt I really hit a slum…
  • @itsemmarobyn said: I'd like to apply to some T-14 schools and since my GPA is in the low median range (and I have poor study abroad grades), I need a high LSAT for my raw numbers to be considered anywhere near competitive. Obviously, getting …
  • @thecmancan said: I just happen to take out the LG Bible from the library for a spin. They REALLY lost me when they started going on and on about making all of their "not laws". It is much more intuitive for me to try to make "worlds", to…
  • @Mochiosis said: When blind reviewing, are you satisfied with just writing "irrelevant" as your explanation for why an answer choice is incorrect? That's what I've been doing, but I sense that I might be cheating myself out of a deeper in…
  • @AngelyMP said: Hello friends! Since joining the 7sage community a short while ago, I have been seeing the power score books mentioned a lot. Are they necessary? Will I be at a disadvantage if I don't use them? This is not my firs…
  • @KeepCalm said: Hello! I believe you are in a great position to continue studying and retake the exam. You seem to be very diligent and, considering that your PT average was around the 170 mark, your goal is realistic. I think you should go fo…
  • @"gerard.emilym" said: I am finding that my Reading Comp scores are super variable - sometimes I get 100% on the section, and sometimes I miss 7-8 questions. I am still working through the CC and PowerScore Bibles. I guess I am just curious - …
  • @graciej137 said: Hi everybody, I've already written a GPA addendum to explain a chronic disease and how it negatively affected my grades. My question is... should I also write an LSAT addendum? I got a 169 on the November LSAT but w…
  • @Harvey_l said: Hey, I'm actually probably going to suggest the most underrated advice that barely anyone follows. Have you tried practicing reading retention and reading comprehension skills on ONE single read? (Not just doing the "main …
  • @msk12345 said: I was in a very similar position to you; I got a score in high 160s on September 2018 LSAT and was out of practice tests. I re-took in November and got a 173 (I went -1 on RC). Here's what I did from September to November: I to…
  • @Lawster9 said: My friend is actually in almost exactly the same situation as you, 164 in September and then a 169 in January (he was PTing in the 170s). I told him that maybe he should consider July because you have the option to see your sco…

  • @"ed.lavado" said: The last few weeks waiting for my score I was sure I did poorly. The test was hard in my opinion compared to the majority of the 30 others I have taken. Well, I opened the email and saw an amazing score. I had gone from the …
  • @eastcoastdionne said: @"Better every day" said: I am in the same position as you here. My average PT on last 5 leading up to Jan test was right around 170 and I hit a 168. I have burned through most recent material as well and am …
  • I am in the same position as you here. My average PT on last 5 leading up to Jan test was right around 170 and I hit a 168. I have burned through most recent material as well and am really struggling to bump my PT up to 173-175range which is what I …
  • @Small_victories said: Hello, I was wondering if "probably not" means the same thing as "unlikely". Thank you! Well probably not means that there is greater than a 50% chance of the outcome NOT happening. In the LSAT world I would inte…
