@"Seeking Perfection" great points. I'm currently a senior in undergrad (not married yet), but I can definitely see how taking on debt and believing you're gonna work an 80 hour a week job can seem "not so bad" when you're youn…
I have thought that for a while. This isn't even a bill so I don't want to be too histrionic about it.
However, it seems to me that sooner or later if these things keep coming up, one will pass. At that point, those interested in public interest wi…
Foods I am planning on using as my staples.
Make soup. It stretches, fills you up, is hard to mess up, and you can put basically anything in it. It is also ideal for cold climates.
Additionally, chili is great, cheap, keeps, and is similarly warm.…

I disagreewith Spivey then. You have a decent chance in the Top 20 outside the Top 14. Maybe Spivey knows this cycle is going worse for splitters or thinks your overall app is weak, but just based on the numbers you should…

Write out the inferences every time. It doesn't matter if you know the correct answer. It's whether you remember how to get there. A good memory is better simce it will make it easier to memorize the inferences.
There are a lot of tests. It sounds to me like a good time for your first one.
The value in them is that you can learn from your mistakes via blind review. Additionally, they can also identify weak points to study more.
I would space them out earl…
Maybe mastering one type of game first would be better. For instance, you could work only on basic linear sequencing games until you can get those done in a better time. Then add in advanced linear games. Then learn in/out and then grouping and so o…

It probably depends on your section breakdown, but if you are missing any points at all in logic games foolproofing should be your first step until you are not.
I don't understand the idea of adding "as far as LSAT performance is concerned." Didn't you originally say that "Sally can become a great lawyer without getting a 180" = "Sally Cannot Become a Great Lawyer --> Sally got a 180"??

As far as admissions, you would certainly be better off studying for the LSAT during the same time even if it only netted you one or two points.
However, the legal experience could help you decide whether to commit your life to something and go int…

Hey all,
After circling around the idea of law school for years, I finally settled on it last week. My cold diagnostic was 163, I'd like to be in the 170s by the time I test.

I would assume a Power Score Study Schedule wouldn't include time for foolproofing logic games using 7 sage so I would be likely to not recommend it.

Hi! I'm hoping I can get some input on how people have fool proofed the logic games in the core curriculum--this is specifically referring to the ones used as examples and the problem sets (not PTs). I have yet to start drill…

However, keep it long enough before the PT that you can replicate it on test day. You are not going to get to bring a sample RC section into the testing center to practice on right before the test on …
