@unclesysy said: Thank you for the post. Do you just receive grades, or do you also get comments on your exams? And if so, did you detect any patterns in the remarks, or what you did well or less well? We just get grades. I am going to mee…

@oshun1 said: @msk12345 said: what's touch typing? I think it means typing without looking at the keyboard. I honestly didnt think this was a thing anyone under the age of 30 even thought about. It was so rare to see anyone…

@anonclsstudent said: Did you have much experience with writing analytical papers before law school? What was your undergrad major? Sort of. I had two majors one of which was kind of a mix of political science and philosophy. We wrote quite …

@AudaciousRed pretty much has it right. Schools define it differently than each other as do different states. Some states (like New York) have a pro-bono hours requirement to be barred. Some count clinic work and some don't. The work usually need…

It sounds realistic. However, it is certainly worth a retake. I'm not sure what funding would be like for your joint degree, but scholarship chances go up with your LSAT score. The good news is you may be able to negotiate even if you retake the te…

@Aidoe said: What are the prospects of getting admitted to a law school that accepts the GRE? Is it really likely someone with only a GRE score can get admitted? If you have a good GPA and are struggling to do well on practice LSATs the GRE …

@Ohnoeshalpme said: You get the two full pages that the game questions are on. It should be the exact same amount provided in any given 7sage PT. This is right. If you buy the old tests used(not through 7sage) though they will sometimes only…

@tuc28290 said: @"Seeking Perfection" wow. when you say you "kept copies" of every LR & RC you got wrong, can you explain that a little more? did you print out new sheets? did you write on them? did you keep the ones when you choose the in…

@akistotle said: I'm tagging @"Seeking Perfection" here because I believe he was in a similar position and I hope he can provide some advice on what to do! I was close to the opposite. I was weakest on logic games and made do withthe starter…

@harrisonhartsough said: Thanks for all the comments! @"Leah M B" and @lsatplaylist - I think of the two I'd probably like NU better. But the Berkeley GPA thing appeals to me if the worst happens and I score only nominally better (e.g. …

@username_hello said: @JustDoIt i'm not trying to compare LSAT takers with scores of 180 and 175. What I'm saying is this. You have 2 students. Both score 145 on their diagnostic. One person spends one year full time studying fo…

Strange things happen with LSAC GPA calculations sometimes so I would just have the schools submit the transcripts to them, see what happens, and challenge it if you don't like the outcome. But you definitely should be careful about law school. It'…

@"jasmine.lsatter" said: I’m curious as to how long i.e. how many months you are studying for prior to taking the LSAT. I studied for less than three weeks the first time and a little over three and a half months the second. You can't reall…

Northwestern. If you score near the upper end if that range the Berkeley scholarship probably isn't good enough to justify it. Keep in mind that Northwestern ED isn't a fullride though. It is $50,000 a year with tuition now at about $62,000. Tuitio…

First, not everyone has the resources. See @"LSAT Warrior Princess" on financial obligations of human beings. Second, many people not on 7 sage don't know how much studying can impact your score. Third, getting from a score like 150 to 170+ may ta…

@badfrenchaccent said: Why are international papers undisclosed, it doesn't seem fair we don't get to see what we got wrong It does seem kind of unfair, but not as unfair as if they made you take it at exactly the same time as all the other…

There is a sort of long period where the games are pretty predictable and you don't get really unusual games. If the unnusual game types trip you up, the early PT's sections would be the hardest and the latest sections would be second hardest. They…

Brilliant! I would have loved to have this when I was foolproofing.

@cvaldez74 said: thanks for asking this - I'm finding that I'm making "dumb mistakes" in the LG section of the CC. prior to watching a video, I try to complete the game board and answer the questions on my own first so that I can pin point the…

Selection bias is the nature of the internet. No one ever posts to say they scored a 2 or a 3 out of 5. Nor do people post saying they think they are making moderate progress. Instead people post when they need support or help or when they are prou…

How about old LR questions from tests you have already done? You already know the answer so they are pretty low stress. Additionally they are so short that you can pretty much do one whenever (during a commercial break, before a meeting, while food …

@sx23 said: @"Seeking Perfection" How was your admissions outcome? Do you think the retake was worth it? I'm in a similar situation (2018 June 173 first take) thinking about retaking. I heard that some people say retaking a 173 might actually …
