Hi everyone! I am just looking to get some advice...
I live in Austin (TX resident) and am applying to law school in the Fall 2021 cycle. I really want to go to UT Austin but I am a splitter and curious if anyone has …
I don't agree, I think there's no such thing as studying too much. You want something, you set whatever goal it is that you feel you need to reach said goal. If you're aiming for a high score than there's no corers to cut, you need to focus and stud…

if this is something that you want to do and do successfully, it seems like with your schedule, studying to your full potential is not feasible for you. Personally, I have a ft job , kids and a sick mom and sleep 4 hours a night max studying but I k…

If your funds llow, I would mximize the time with one on one tutoring for the question types tht you are getting wrong. Yes, it does require money, but in the long run the benefits gained will far exceed the investment made.

I'd consider an RC specific tutor before giving up. It often just takes a few tweaks in mindset/approach. I've found that its not uncommon for an extensive background in reading, literature, etc. to actually function as a hand…

Cynthia, DO NOT GIVE UP! I had a similar point a few months ago, and 7 sagers had to talk me off the ledge. You can do this. You can master the LSAT. I was stuck for 4 months in the 150's before breaking into 165+ range.

Every question has 2/3 obvious wrong answers which I can quickly eliminate, if I find that I take more than a minute deciding on the remaining two I just guess and move on. There's' no use sucking up the minutes on questions that are time suckers if…
Why feel guilt? You have enough time taking it in October to apply for a Fall22 start date. You could even take the November one and still have time to apply? Ofcourse, October would allow for early decision. Postpone it if you're looking for a 160,…

June. The "Flex effect" is too strong to ignore. It is easier to get a better score with less sections, generally speaking. I was PT-ing in the high 160's and got a 167 in April. Since then, I have cracked into the mid-170's, w…
I have never gotten a weakening question wrong and the reason for this is that if you attack the premise, you will always get the wrong answer. The trick is to attack the premise - conclusion relationship. What I do is re-word the conclusion, in thi…
