There are some problems that you wouldn't expect to see in "modern" LSATs (the calendaring question from PT 7 comes to my mind), and some problems are rather unusual. I think that LR questions from June 2007 and onward are more difficult though.

most students at Columbia that I have spoken to say something along the lines of "I don't know why we have that reputation, everyone shares outlines, people are friendly, etc., professors are super accessible." I think, without a doubt, it's less…

Are LR sections in the 60s and 70s much more similar to the 30s on which I have been performing well? How much weight would you give to these crappy results from LR sections from the early 1990s? Yes to the first question. I, however, would be …

Don't take my input too seriously, as it is based entirely on hearsay. I have yet to hear a single positive testimony about Columbia. No one I know decided to go to Columbia (even after visiting). Sources point to the same problems: competitive, "d…

I personally was thinking "body parts" when I tackled this problem. Do keep in mind that this test is quite old; it could be reflecting the contemporaneous common anatomical understanding.

"The muscular system is an organ system..." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Muscular_system I know, I know... Wikipedia... But Google search indicates that a good number of sources consider muscles as organs.

Glad to know that at least some of my comments were deemed helpful!

For all I know, the OP might be planning to devote his life to writing a magnum opus after retiring. Whatever he plans to do after the age of 40 is irrelevant; it is none of my business. He is wondering whether it would be possible to accumulate a r…

@VDH_dee5 said: I have heard that purchasing a starter package at the beginning and later upgrading may not be worth it? Depends on what your definition of "worth" is (which would depend on what your needs and wants are).

Do keep in mind that 7Sage's curriculum may differ significantly from whatever curriculum you are following at the moment (it doesn't look like you have a 7Sage package at the moment). So if you do end up purchasing a package, you may have to accoun…

LCF ---> Run LCF, then a. Scandal ---> Run; or b. Scandal ---> Run Think of the stimulus as an unnecessarily and unpleasantly convoluted decision tree. Before considering scandalous record, one first has to consider whether Lutz has a…

Looking at your records, I would have said you already reached your maximum potential - if it weren't for the fact that you have almost continuously studied during the past 5 years. Any chance you would be willing to give a shot at a one-year break?

I'm not sure. Some of the schools I visited gave me more than one option, and I read all the cases I was given before I made my decisions. I believe I read ones on criminal law, property, remedies, and torts. @westcoastbestcoast
-
At this point, I don't think we have big enough data to make a reliable generalization regarding the relationship between the number of attempts and the probability of being admitted to a certain school.
-
I believe that feature is unavailable.

Had about three. None of them cold-called; the professor relies on volunteers to get the discussion going. There is no need to analyze it like (how I expect) one would in law school. It might benefit you to read the case though; some of those classe…

You have no idea how much I envy you right now. Congratulations! Incidentally, is it too late to request for your PM?

@"Seeking Perfection" said: I'm still skeptical. It's not so much that the Trump Bump would extend to the good LSAT takers which bothers me. It's that it would effect them so much more than the lesser takers. To your explanation, how many…

@sandypants said: Sorry I think I missed something... what is the Trump Bump? A rise in the number of law school applicants, caused by dissatisfaction with the current administration (e.g. "My immigrant friend got deported," "I want to recti…

LR drill packages categorize that kind of question as PSA.

This certainly increases pressure for my upcoming June LSAT...

Also, word of advice: Unless you plan to reapply, do not take a look at the applications you submitted for this cycle (especially the one for Harvard, since you mentioned it). You might find a really insignificant error that might make you think you…

@acsimon said: I’m just wondering if I have good reason to worry about the outcome of this cycle. I also should note that I applied very late in this cycle (this could be a non-negligible factor). I also might throw in a little about…

I strongly recommend against the latter approach, especially if you are having a difficult time with MSS questions. It's amazing how exceedingly forgiving one's brain can get when trying to support an answer choice ("Ohhh, this can be true! But wait…

I can't lie, I really do miss being stressed and way too studious. Don't worry. You will get there eventually... I believe law schools are quite capable of giving their students stress and workload.
