It's hard to predict. There are a lot of different structures they can use, and I think it's generally best to read with an open mind. If you go in with preconceptions about what it's "supposed to be" you're going to frequently be misdirected.
The study scheduler simply tells you how the material has to be distributed in order to complete it during the timeline you set. To complete it, that distribution is necessary regardless of how much else you have going on. I remember when I first st…
Definitely depends. Your score range is a very rough, but maybe the best guideline. The lower your score, the longer it is likely to take. When I was in the low/mid 160's, it took +/- a full day; high 160's/low 170's range, half a day; high 170's, s…
Very legitimate concern, and we try to fill this gap as best we can. Starting the week of Oct 9, @"Daniel.Sieradzki" and I will each be hosting weekly workshops on RC and LR respectively. We both know our stuff and there's not much the LSAT can thro…

Cheaper than Starbucks;) The trick is just knowing how to make it well. Grab a bur grinder, a gooseneck kettle, and a clever coffee dripper, and you'…

Soooo Folgers is the best coffee brand and there is no arguing it then?

Ah . . . that explains the detailed knowledge of coffee brewing that you demonstrated in another post.
Yeah, I know my stuff, haha. Voted Best Barista in the Pine Belt for four years. #hubcity #barista #coffeeordie

This is an architectural style known as brutalism. Very popular in the 70's. Wonder why they call it that?
I've worked in cafes since I was 18 and eventually was hired on to develop the menu and FOH service for a cafe in a renovated industrial building about 5 minutes from my house. So I'm back and forth between my home study room where I study best, and…
I wouldn't worry asking about your splitter status. If you apply as a splitter, you'll have great odds and you don't need them to tell you that. Approximately half the students that enter any given class will be below the GPA median, so if you can g…
You've got to find your rhythm. It took me about a month before I really hit my stride and was able to stick strickly to my schedule. Maybe add an afternoon nap/coffee to your routine. Find what works, then stick to it like clockwork so you physical…
Here's a thread outlining one member's approach to the process of FPing. A lot of people have used this or adapted it, and I highly recommend developing some version of something like this:

Definitely don't write one if you're above the median. That would be extremely irritating to admissions. Even if you're below though, I just don't think it's necessary. It's by no means a terrible GPA, and they'll see your transcript and how your gr…
Great question, and I'm not actually sure what the answer is. Seems like a good one for the admissions webinar tonight:

I'm not a big fan of mylsn. It's self reported data and if you really look at it, the bulk of it is really old. Law school has been undergoing a pretty dramatic transformation, so it just doesn't cut it for me. As an LSAT weaken stim, it'd be like s…
You will have to report if the specific wording demands it, but it won't be a big deal. I had several of these. I wrote:
I have had charges for the following dismissed:
2007 in Jackson, MS - speeding
2013 in Hattiesburg, MS - expired tag

Great question. I think the first thing is to know which schools have the money and how they distribute it:

You have to master the abstraction before you can correctly internalize it and use intuition successfully. The goal is to not need to use it, but there's a lot of work to do before that happens.
Being an international student, there are a few things that'll be slightly different--such as your GPA calculations--and I'm not entirely sure how that will play into it. That said, there are definitely schools that cover full tuition+. It kind of j…
I think I stole this from @"Daniel.Sieradzki" , but definitely my favorite experimental approach: Choose one PT to break apart as your experimental, so that over four PTs, you've taken the whole thing. As you BR each test, go ahead and work it and d…
Well, so here's the thing with medians, lol. It's not an average, it's just the score that falls in the middle of the lineup. A 4.3 and a 3.5 will have the exact same effect on a school with a 3.4 median. If you're over you're over and if you're und…
Email @"Dillon A. Wright" (dillon[at]7sage.com) and he'll fix you up. Sometimes wires just don't connect for some reason. This happened to me with a trumpet once, lol.
ViewSTAMP, lol. I'd forgotten about that. I don't have much law related activities for you, although My Cousin Vinny is outstanding. UChicago I think has a Vincent Gambini Society or something, lol.
I like to get away from all this when I get the c…
