@"Cant Get Right" I'm looking into these numbers closer than I have before, is "median grant amount full time" on the aid rankings per year or for all three years? Thank you!
I believe that is per year, but I’m not 100…
Here’s a great compilation of all this data into easy formatting:

I'd start with PT 1 and go from there. There's a few spots in those really early ones that get a bit weird, but I think that's actually a good thing because the recent tests seem to be bringing weird back. In any case, old official material is still…
If your goal is to go to one of HYS, and you're not an URM, yes. If you just want to humble brag about your GPA and LSAT, no.
These types of comments really aren't very helpful. OP has a difficult decision to make about a really tough score ra…

Do we have any idea how law schools might favor traditionally taken LSATs to the digital versions? Next cycle there will be a combination of paper and digital LSAT scores, do you think to top tiers will lean towards the paper …
I'll echo above posts in that you've done really well already: With those numbers, you outperform the overwhelming majority of the field.
As far as pushing deeper in LR, it sounds like you've plateaued because your study habits are 160 study habits…

Just wanted to highlight this 😂
Haha, I half expected that to take over the thread, I cant believe no one has been horrifically offended!

How does a cancel on your record compare to a retake? I am planning to take the June or July 2019 as my first try, with the September date as a retake option to still apply early. I hav…
@Guillaume @"Beast Mode"
My strategy on Flaw questions is actually to avoid looking for the gap/flaw in the argument all together. If I see it, great, but I'm not going to dwell on it. If I don't, just as good. The multiple choice test has one majo…

I actually just read about this. Seems like it could be a good opportunity to try to top a previous score with little cost. I hope the digital transition isn't as rough as I think it will be.
It's a GREAT opportun…

You'll be testing in July as well, haha. I am in the process of writing a post about this actually, but for the July test you'll get to see your score before you decide to cancel or not. This is such an enormous advantage to July testers that I thin…
I think good decision to sit out a cycle.
Start by taking better care of yourself. I get the stresses and pressures that go into all of this, and I had to be proactive. Put yourself on a schedule and develop a routine. Get up at the same time every…

do you find drilling LR by question type useful
I think this is the most important question you posed in all of this, and I think you should turn it around on yourself:
Do you find it useful? How, specifically, is it addres…
Yeah, you're right that establishing D would result in /A. We can't have both of them, so if we establish that we do have D, we must kick A out. That would be sufficient, but it's not the only way. What they chose to do instead is to connect the two…

Needed to read this post today as I am deciding whether it is a good idea to delay a cycle or not. BUMP.
Wow, I’d forgotten about this post, but reading it back, it’s a pretty good one. A lot has happened for me sinc…
Yeah, basically anything that says we shouldn’t expect identical outcomes:
Group A smokes an average two packs a day; Group B are all vegan fitness instructors.
Have you been accepted into both?
Both will have excellent placement in big law, so that’s unlikely to be a meaningful point of differentiation. Do your research, but those metrics are likely to be very close.
You need to visit both schools/cities…

I also hope LSAC gives students the option to send only the best LSAT score to schools in that case because I think that's what ETS does for GRE. But I think that would lead to higher median LSAT scores, and that might make sc…

If this were to happen, I think it would mean that the tests would not be disclosed and LSAC wouldn't release PrepTests (as ETS doesn't). GRE can have administrations almost every day because the test is not disclosed (so they…
Remember that there are no awards for completion. If you don't take your time and really learn the concepts, you may as well not bother. Take each lesson as a unique and isolated challenge. Try to master it before you move on and define "mastery" in…
Not sure what that means. Could mean schools won't see it, but the "factored into" language sounds strange for that. Why not just say it won't be reported? I suspect that may indicate that it won't count towards the average score band which is calcu…
Contact LSAC. With extenuating circumstances such as a car wreck, there may be something they can do. Otherwise, my understanding is that it will appear on your record as “Absent.” Not a huge deal; things happen. You may want to write a brief addend…

If you have the time, I would recommend going through the CC again, making sure to not move on from a lesson until you've completely understood it. If you do this, I don't think you'll need supplementary prep.
