I don't have access to the tests right now, but if it helps, causation imples correlation, but correlation does not imply causation. Usually to support causation, timing will play a roll. So if one thing always preceeds another that starts to form …

I don't see why not except that if you know for sure there is no way you will go this cycle you should probably turn down the spot as soon as possible to free it up for someone else unless that would harm your cycle next year somehow.

I don't know. I might check Top Law Schools Harvard apllication threads from past years for questions they frequently use if I were you. I do know that they tend to accept a pretty high percentage of people they interview so it is a really good sig…

@OverRatedUnderAchiever I'm struggling to follow the path here and the reasoning for it. You are getting a Masters and then some time later or maybe immediately are going to get a JD. Additionally, if I followed right, you are doing this because …

Hard to know. Columbia doesn't normally yield protect as much as Penn, Michigan, and Virginia though. http://columbia.lawschoolnumbers.com/stats/1718 Looking at the chart it seems to me that people with above a 173 and a 3.5 are doing okay. People…

Congrats on Berkeley!

@nivaasya said: Hi everyone! This is my first post on here I was wondering at which point in the syllabus y'all recommend incorporating the foolproof method...when we start doing full-length PTs, or earlier, at some point during the core c…

@akeegs92 said: @"Seeking Perfection" WUSTL can really push the needle that much? Kind of a general question but on average, lets take the example you used UT vs. WUSTL, how much can one reasonably push their scholarship up through negotiation…

Two a week sounds about good. For a lot of people skipping PTs works nicely. You take every other, every third, or skip every third PT. You time it so you reach your newest PT as your last PT before the test. This ensures you get some experience on…

I have no idea what this really means... That said, "I went with no, how could they?" If people with high scores get in with a less deep read is that them getting an equal amount of judgement. The office started with an equal amount of judgement, …

I don't think that you do need advice on this yet. We are sure that your February test score isn't going to be acceptable. If for some reason it turns out to be what you want you should apply. If that isn't possible you should cancel. Now what you…

How long has it been since you applied? If it's been at least a few months I would say sure. However, rather than telling them your first choice rejected you and they are now far and away your remaining first choice or saying it without explanation,…

I would always use either your real time or maybe like 5 minutes less. You don't need to finish 17.5 minutes early on every section. That would be an inefficient way to use your time. But if you want a buffer, 5 minutes might be nice. I occasionally…

@akeegs92 said: @"Seeking Perfection" Thanks for the article! Very good read! The 1/3 number also is helpful as well. Texas is at the top of my list and I feel confident about getting to their LSAT median and maybe slightly above by this summe…

Unless you think you are going to want to wait a cycle you might as well send it now.

@"Paul Caint" said: Thanks all, that's pretty illuminating stuff. Yeah it felt some might say my numbers would classify me as an "auto-admit," but maybe since I didn't bother writing a Why Michigan essay they yield protected me. I'm also …

If few means 1-49 percent, it seems to me that not few should mean either 0 or 50-100 percent. Negating few means that we can't have few. If we have 0, there are not few. If we have 100 percent there are not few. And if we have 51 percent there are…

I don't have experience, but have done some reading on it. Nearly everyone recommends Getting to Maybe so just reading that a few times might be sort of the most obvious form of prep. A lot of exams are timed and are based on how many important fo…

@cstrobel said: I was a part of my school's honors program, and the classes were significantly more difficult than my upper division courses. My GPA still ended up being pretty good, but the lower grades consistently came from the honors class…

@akeegs92 said: @westcoastbestcoast @"Seeking Perfection" Thanks for the responses! I agree on the leverage part of ED. @"Seeking Perfection" what is considered long shot in your opinion? And does ED really make a difference to a committee if …

I think EDing Northwestern would be about as good as you can do with ED. Do you have work experience? Northwestern is more likely to actually bite if you do. That said if you want to be in Chicago, University of Chicago is best followed by Northwes…

It might or might not technically restrict you. As @westcoastbestcoast says you can ask. Some schools look at whether you applied ED when awarding scholarships and consequently rarely give scholarships to ED students who will attend no matter what. …

@Sprinkles I was more relieved than upset. I read about the mass waitlist and was double checking that I hadn't been part of it when I found out it was waiting in Spam. @lsatplaylist For me U of M definitely has the best location of any T-14. I…

@needmylsat180 said: WL as well. Is sending in a Why UMich and an LSAT addendum a bad idea? (assuming they want me to address my huge score differences) I would say it's a great idea. If you don't want to send them both at once you could str…
