Whoever can write the better letter is the best choice. Would it look bad on me if I have been working for the same job for the past 2.5 years but don’t get a recommendation from work? No, because law schools fully understand people want and n…

Dean Perry of University of Chicago Law School mentions seven points as the minimal threshold for an LSAT addendum. I don't know about other schools, but that sounds like a solid standard.

Will the schools just...throw away my application without looking at it? No.

are they technically spams? Technically, yes. I would say the term is especially applicable to those from lower ranked schools without the "Unsubscribe" option. (Not trying to disparage lower ranked schools; they seem to be the only ones that d…

I don't know about law school, because undergraduate experience doesn't seem to correspond exactly to law school experience. If you want to go to law school, it's up to you. We live in a free country (or free countries, if you do not live in the US,…

On its ABA-required disclosures, Stanford identified only two out of 180 enrollees as not included in its LSAT calculations. Harvard has a similar figure, albeit with an incoming class with 560 enrollees. Both disclosures are for the previous year. …

Of course in an essay one wouldn't want to be overly repetitive and use the same words/phrases, but some job duties between jobs are the same. I think it sounds a little bit stupid and like I'm trying to be fancy and trick the reader into th…

I'm curious whether it would be advisable to just sign up Nov and withdrawal before if these next weeks don't go well. The way I see it, the problem with this reasoning is that you place yourself in an indefinite two-front war. I don't know wh…

I am strongly inclined to recommend you to take a year off, work and study, retake the LSAT next year, and apply as soon as possible. Law school aspiration is not eternal. GPA is. Law schools like to see people with some gap years. Even if you inv…

Elaborate in a bullet point under the "Education" or the "Honors" section.

@tekken1225 said: So if I am taking the LSAT for the first time in November (so obviously I have no official LSAT score currently), it's completely useless for me to apply right now, correct? Schools won't even look at my application without a…

Basically, I am certain that if I took more time, I could score much higher, which would give me a good shot at the schools I am hoping to get into... However, my parents are very against this, and they think that November should be my last shot,…

Do keep in mind that, usually, your application will be deemed complete and forwarded to admission committees only after you receive your final LSAT score. If you decide to retake the LSAT, there's no difference whether you apply now or later when i…

I too see negativity as the biggest problem with this topic. IMHO, the issue is not so much about police-hating as it is about depicting someone else in negative light in order to advocate your interest. If you do choose to go along with this story…

But am I actually supposed to list all of these? It seems really redundant to have 20 entries all saying the same thing ... wouldn't these show up on the transcripts anyway? Wouldn't hurt, would it? Same question with summa cum laude----"to…

@"m.dearden" said: Any idea where to find that information? I'm pretty sure it varies from school to school. I too believe it varies from school to school. You may want to contact your school's chapter (?). In my case, requirements, criteria…

"Top X% of graduating class."

I am inclined to think MBT and MSS should have been lumped together to make room for Strengthen... Weaken has my vote.

1: No need to emphasize the "Top 100" part, especially if it refers to your undergraduate institution (adcoms see way too many amazing qualifications every year, and there are gazillions kinds of nerds). If you have a specific experience that is rel…

if someone resolved to attend a top law school because that’s what he or she wanted then have they seriously redeemed themselves? I am not inclined to think that one is "seriously redeemed" simply because (s)he managed to achieve what (s)he wan…

I don't know about sharing inflated scores, but I did witness someone sharing a deflated score.

I actually would love to have another LG section in lieu of the RC section.

Target score?

A highlighter.

Are the conversion charts at the end of each PT the same for every test? No. Anyone know which one would be right? Whatever comes with a PT is the correct conversion chart for that particular PT. Don't get duped by anything else.
-
Your BR score is the theoretical maximum you could have obtained from the PT in question. This means you have a lot of space for improvement. Keep doing BR and practice! The score decrease looks like a reasonable deviation.
-
is it possible to take a practice test everyday or is that just overkill? It is definitely possible, but it will make your life quite unpleasant. It may also prove counterproductive if not done correctly. There is a big difference between takin…

I brought neither a bag nor a phone. I just didn't see the point.

Looks fine now! @"Alan Cheuk"
