Great advice Nilesh. Yeah I'm working full-time right now while studying. Not to mention I'll have to put in a lot of overtime hours soon because my firm will be extremely busy for the next 2 months. Keep these three things in mind: balance, balance…

As I'm sure you know, there are a multitude of paths taken when it comes to going to law school. I for one have worked at a big law firm and am currently at a smaller boutique law firm. It's a mixed bag (at least for me it is). It's nice to gain som…

Great job Nilesh! I am positive all the effort invested into the LSAT has prepared you for the next 3 years! Good luck at Georgetown!

@royaimani: Kashi bars. By the boxes.

1) 180 2) 180 3) 180 (I wish).

Yep. You can bring a highlighter. I brought one when I took it but I didn't use it. I never really incorporated the use of a highlighter when I PT'ed.

If your comments have benefited a fellow 7sager, you already are a winner. ^-^d

@alexroark5: Thanks for the input!

What an amazing story! You definitely put in the investment and seriousness the test entails. I'm sure you'll be rewarded with unquantifiable dividends. There's nothing else that can really replace a superb lsat score like a 174. If you don't mind,…

I concur as well--couldn't have said it better myself.
-
How helpful can they be if they were confusing? Haha! (I kid). I took TM and it was a pain in the ass. The only silver lining was that I met some really great people.

Yeah the water bottle thing really threw me off. I didn't expect that. Not to mention, I had a bloody thumb since I hacked at my own hand with my keys trying to get the label off.
-
I wasn't allowed into the test room until I ripped off the brand label on my water bottle. I re-read the rules to see if there was any mention of that and saw nothing. Perhaps I'm mistaken? Has this happened to anyone else?
-
Wow. Serious?

"On balance" means to take the whole scope into consideration.
-
Yessir!

Yeah absolutely. 1) Find a quiet area with little-to-no ambient noise. 2) I usually like to sit cross-legged on the floor. Some like to sit in a chair or something with back support. However, I find that too comfortable. I think it's best that you'…

It's really great for training in terms of focus. Meditation teaches how to focus on the particular task at hand. It's such a crucial and foundational element needed for LSAT prep in my view. I only wish I did it a lot sooner.

Make it a part of your day-to-day! 15 minutes is all it takes right after you wake up each morning! It definitely sets the pace of your day. Even for 5-10 minutes before you take a PT will do wonders. I'm glad everyone enjoyed it!

I always like to enumerate the number of paragraphs per passage first. Then I always make sure to read for structure and try not to get bogged down by the context.

I had some issues with flawed method of reasoning as well. There are three things that I did to help me improve: 1) Really listen and digest the explanations provided by JY/Jonathan when you BR. 2) Remember that all the answer choices are repeats…

@CallMeJazzy: That's perfect advice!

Going slow is being fast.

@jramo118: Exactly! It's about intuition-building via the BR review. I think over time you develop a 6th sense about the test that goes against your normal logic. I believe that's where the uncertainty comes from. It's analogous to the distinction b…

Doing well on the LSAT is about building strong habits. This includes the test itself as well as other tangential things like a proper diet, exercise, and a strong psychological outlook. Everything is interrelated. I hope you do well!

Napoleon Dynamite! I love that movie.

There's also a test center at San Francisco State University. They have horrible tiny desks.

It all depends on the criterion of the law school(s) that you'll be applying to. My best advice is for you to intensively research the particular law school that you hope to gain admissions to. Also, it would be prudent to check out law school fairs…

COME TO SAN FRANCISCO! >:(

By the way, if you guys want a concrete and comprehensive analysis of your sleep patterns--check out 'Sleep Cycle' in the App Store (I'm not sure if there's an Android Version). It is a surprisingly dependable alarm clock and it measures your sleep …
