@Q_ESQUIRE yep!

@Alice003 we chose the winner randomly from the attendees.
-
@jcsemus19 is the winner of our free edit once!
-
Looking forward to seeing everyone tonight!

Thanks, @"Habeas Porpoise"! I'd cast a very wide net. In a sense, it's a blessing for you that schools use medians instead of averages, because they won't need an ultra-hgh or multiple high GPAs to counterbalance yours: they'll only need a single m…

i heard 7Sage has some okay lessons about this: https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/progress/

If you can get a strong second academic recommendation, do it! If you can't, it will be okay.

Your résumé should be in reverse chronological order. This should be listed in order of importance. They're also inviting you to write more narrative descriptions than you would in résumé descriptions.

Hi everyone, The writing sample has always mattered. Here’s what I wrote in our FAQ: Does the LSAT writing sample matter? Some admissions officers read it as a rule; some hardly ever do. Treat it as if it does. It matters more if you speak Englis…

More is coming!

@fycw2068 good catch. Fixed! Thanks.
-
I just published a new FAQ (stand by for announcement) that covers this: https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/lesson/faq/ Let me know if the FAQ is useful / could be improved. (And it might still be buggy).

@"marco.delg" Admissions Information for Canadian Law Schools links to a spreadsheet with medians or averages, which we hunted down on the schools' websites. I don't think the schools all disclose their 25th and 75th percentiles. They're not subject…

@"Positively LSAT Street" @jayredliner Sorry, I actually meant to put these in the free section of the admissions course. They're free now!

@thisissparta fixed! Thanks.

Thanks, @"selene.steelman"! If any of you are looking for more details, check out this lesson: https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/lesson/character-fitness-addenda/

@lsatplaylist yes:

Congrats @lsatwolf ! You win a free Edit Once.

Take a look at this lesson: https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/lesson/character-fitness-addenda/ Every application has different character and fitness questions, so you won't be writing a voluntary addendum no matter what. Some applications will …

Starting soon!

@SCLawbae that's exactly what it means. Note that a few schools award automatic merit scholarships to ED admits, which changes the calculus. But as you say, if a school doesn't offer such an automatic scholarship, ED applicants should assume that t…

Great! I also just added new information to this lesson on Early Decision: https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/lesson/apply-law-school-early-decision/
-
You should come to our webinar tonight and ask! But if you're willing to pay sticker, then I think it's a pretty decent idea!
-
Good call. Thanks Selene!
-
Thanks for the shout-out, @BinghamtonDave. I don't know the full story, and predicting someone's chances without an LSAT score is a bit like trying to plot a point on the map with only a longitude coordinate, but your soft factors are eye-popping, s…

@jcsemus19 yes, free!
-
Yes! Check out this lesson: https://classic.7sage.com/admissions/lesson/research-why-x/ Use those tips to personalize the last paragraph of the essay. Demonstrated interest definitely makes it easier for the admissions office to say yes.

My advice is not to worry at all about length in your first draft. As you revise, try to winnow it down to at least three pages, unless you’re only applying to an outlier school like Berkeley which is happy to read long statements. Finalize a two…
