So, I want to take the July 23rd LSAT which is in roughly 5 months. I would like to get a 170. Received a 155 on the December 2017 LSAT, and am waiting to see what my score on the February 2018 LSA…

If I were you, I would definitely take the full ride. Graduating from Columbia or Penn with zero debt will provide you with a lot of great opportunities in PI. Plus having minimal debt will allow you to take a job you wa…
I bubbled every page flip. It saves time.
The only time I would switch away from this would be if I was running out of time at the end of a section. I would then bubble in c for all the remaining questions when it got down to about two minutes and …
It seems like you probably already have done enough PTs to roughly know your strengths and weaknesses. Therefore I wouldn't do any more during the Core Curriculum. You already know which areas to spend the most time on during the CC(whatever your co…
I imagine as a teacher you would make a pretty good tutor and there has to be some demand for tutors either in high school or college classes in Chicago.
I don't think you need to cite the prof's papers as evidence that they are in the fields they are in. If you take specific information from the paper, you probably should. Either way, I think that in a Why X essay, it would probably usually flow bet…

Agreed @"Seeking Perfection" but this same doors will open even after deadlines have passed and scholarships likely attached. And a simple check on LSN cN show if you were shorted for a late app.
Absolutely, Law School N…

Generally it's a bad idea, but Feb or June scores changes things a bit.
The "save your place in line" simply isn't true. Your LSAT/GPA index can move you forward or to the back of the line.
If a school has a late …

The Northwestern cut off was a little arbitrary. Northwestern used to have particularly high BigLaw placement. That might not be true with the newest numbers. I don't know because I'm not actually interested in Big Law at…
If you are set on applying and attending this cycle no matter the score, you might as well send them and get the advantage of having them in as soon as the LSAT scores can get to them.
If you might wait a cycle, I would probably hold my fire until …

@whoami said:
Do you guys feel that it's the fact that I've taken the LSAT four times that I was rejected?
I doubt it. I bet it is more that you are a pretty extreme splitter. That makes every app a roll of the dice and much less certain. Us…
You can also definitely get lucky with section difficulty. I wanted a fairly easy Games section for my retake since they still occasionally threw me off. I got it, but with a supposedly really hard RC section. That was great for me since I'm natural…
@OverRatedUnderAchiever
Okay, but so far in the previous comments you contradict yourself. You initially disagreed with Asians having a higher expectation for getting admissions to Law schools, compared to undergrad.
I did not. I initially dia…

@"Seeking Perfection" I am concerned about a new job possibly being a distraction. One benefit of doing this brain-dead zombie work is that I have a lot of brain power/energy left over for studying after work.

I preferred not to read it first, but it definitely saves time. So if I was a little behind pace compared to normal, I read question stems first then the passage and then answered.
If not, I read the passage the question and the answers in order an…
By applying in late June or early July when the results to the score come in you basically sacrafice your ability to negotiate scholarships.
They know that the other schools are likely to be full of students so even if you get in you are likely loo…
If you really hate it, I would change jobs.
But I wouldn't really do it because of the LSAT. Sure looking will have a distracting effect as will settling in at a new place. The new place having an energy you like more could be either motivating or …

Thank you very much @akistotle @"Seeking Perfection" and @cstrobel for the feedback, it really helped.
It looks like I may get to study for the LSAT once more. If there's a silver lining, logic games was my worst sect…

Even if it costs you up to $150,000?

This makes sense and I think is a good point. It's almost sort of like a Why X/LOCI... expressing particular interest. I was thinking the same thing, most admissions offices seem to not w…
