I definitely agree to mix up the order of the tests, particularly after you've started BRing consistently above your target score.
As for the number of PTs a week, if your goal is to take a lot of PTs, then knock yourself out. Hell, do one a day…

they just bring the zip in hands...??
What if we need something on the way? We have to throw them away before enter the test center?
Yes and yes.

Can I still participate in the call even though it wont be BR in the traditional sense?
Of course! Just don't give anything away for those who haven't scored yet!
I wouldn't recommend doing any questions until you've studied the underlying concepts. The LSAT is built on formal logic and dense grammar, and you have to learn that first. Until you've studied the fundamentals, doing questions will be little bet…

What I was trying to say is that T14 law schools place more emphasis on extracurricular activities than the majority of other law schools do because they know people are going to apply with high numbers.
Gotcha. You are absolute…
Yeah, I agree with the 7Sage answer. For me personally, I plateaued pretty hopelessly in the high 150's/low 160's before 7Sage. I don't think I could have broken the 170's if I hadn't found 7Sage.

Hey! Where you at Mississippi? I'm outside of Oxford currently, grew up in Jackson, and Hattiesburg is home.
Anyway, you're definitely over the medians on both LSAT and GPA for UM, (I think 157 is the 75% actually…
Yeah, I guess that is a bit drastic. Maybe you needed a warm up and underperformed the first section? Or maybe you wore out before reaching the last section. Who knows. Whatever the explanation for the discrepancy, the solution is the same. Fig…

How many Games or PTs did you do to get -0~-2 range?
ow many times do you repeat doing the same games?
To both questions: As many as it takes. For different individuals, the actual number will range from 1 to 300+. Repeating e…
The other thing with PTs is you don't want to invest too much in your scores. It's really hard to detach from it, but the score really is useless to you. The purpose of a PT is not to generate a score, it's to get better at taking the LSAT. When …
One thing I've realized about the LSAT is that the process of preparing for it results in so much more than a score. The score is woefully inadequate in expressing the results. I know that you gained tremendously from studying for the LSAT and bec…
I'd also add that I don't think you're going to benefit from an in person class. I'd say re up your 7sage membership before joining up with one of them. You're too advanced for a class and the ability to target specific areas is going to be what y…
Hey Coffee. Time was definitely the issue. The good news is, your averages reflect a very high level of understanding. Between now and December, work on performing under time pressure and I think you're going to do great.
I think feeling confident is great as long as you can back it up. If you're scoring -10 from your target score, then I don't think you should feel confident that you're going to score it. That's arrogance, not confidence. But if you've been scori…
Because you took the LSAT, they are going to consider your performance in their consideration of your request. So depending on how you did, that could potentially strengthen or weaken your case.
As for the rest, sounds like a great question for @B…
Yeah, it's kinda hard to say. I definitely agree that it would be worth the effort to try and raise your LSAT score. Play around with the numbers and you'll see that even raising your score by 5-10 points makes a huge difference. On 7Sage, I know…
And even with schools like NYU, there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of evidence that they actually abide by the average thing. Ultimately, the only score that counts towards their rankings is your high score. Because a school's ranking will deter…
We're on the cusp of getting another 10 Actual book. For now though, you've just got to buy them individually.
And Vanessa covered the BR Group really well, and glad to see you'll be joining us. See you Wednesday!
@jowens7317 , since 75% of people will fall beneath the 75th percentile though, it still matters for most of us. Sure, lots of applicants will be pretty immediately accepted or rejected, but the bulk of the work of admissions is to sort through ever…
Yeah @danielznelson , I cut it as close as I could have. Completely wasted my first two takes, then underperformed on test day, lol. I remember something that Nicole said once: that I needed to get to a level where a 170 is what happened on a bad da…
