Stop thinking of how many questions you can get wrong to maintain your goal score and start thinking about how many more you need to get right to surpass it! I think my biggest problem in December was going into the test center confident that I need…

It is just one PT. You will likely be taking dozens more before the real thing—don't sweat it! Everyone has good days and bad days during their prep. Today may not have been your best day, but another one in the future will be, as long as you keep u…

@Sami Thanks for the encouragement. Good luck on your third attempt! @"Alex Divine" The range for my 10 most recent PTs before December was 170-179. 175 was my mode score (x3). I averaged - 3 LR (combined), - 3 LG, - 2 RC on those. Actual was - 9…

1) Employment 2) Clerkship placement 3) Curricular offerings (interdisciplinary certificates, clinics, externship, etc.) 4) Journal & research opportunities 5) Reputation for future academic job placement

Also, why the rush to go next year? If you know you want BU, just prep intensely for June (like you want a 170+) and apply Early Decision next fall. They guarantee a full tuition scholarship to anyone they accept through their Distinguished Scholar …

Yeah, it took me 6 months of full time study 6+ hours a day, 6 days a week to get from a 153 diagnostic to a 165 in December (although I was PTing in the mid 170s prior to the Dec. exam)... and this as summa cum laude double major haha. Undergrad pe…

I did all three (first Powerscore, then a combo of 7Sage and the Trainer), and found 7Sage to be vastly superior to the other two. I thought the Trainer was a wonderful supplement to 7Sage—I wish I had used it to "lay my foundation" instead of Power…

@tringo335 Yep, at least for last year! They are consistently one of the best in the T-14 for having 0 unemployed graduates haha. https://www.law.uchicago.edu/employment-data

University of Chicago for sure, followed closely by Northwestern, Duke, Vanderbilt, or WUSTL. But more realistically, I'd be happy at any T-14/T-20 that will take me. I love UChicago's quarter system academic schedule, interdisciplinary certificate…

I was invited to their December webinar and tuned in for it. Honestly, you didn't miss much at all. It was just a 45 minute presentation that basically just covered the standard info available on their website/in their view book. It was well done an…

Congrats on the better than expected LSAT! I vote apply now and settle for nothing less than 50% scholarship to a t-14. If you don't get it, reapply next cycle. I say this only because of the very real possibility you could get 170+ on a June/Septem…

162 is a killer diagnostic score! If you are willing to put in a lot of hard work, then 175+ is achievable. Case and point, here is one of the most inspirational LSAT improvement success stories I've heard (162 ---->169 ---->174 ---->Yale)…

Harvard's admission website clearly states that applicants that have taken the GRE are obligated to report all of their scores. If I were you, I'd notify them ASAP. From their FAQ page: "While applicants need only take either the LSAT or the GRE, H…

UNSUBCRIBE!!! I got so annoyed by these spam emails that I took a solid hour one day to get myself off of every no-name school's mailing list (always an option in the fine print at the bottom of their emails). My email inbox has been so much less cl…

I would be interested. I got a 165 on the Dec. LSAT after averaging 173 over ~40PTs and 4 months of study. I'm planning to put in apps in the later half of this month so the Feb. score can come in soon enough to affect decisions. I have basically …

Often times, this will come down to a tempting (albeit incorrect) "could be true" answer and a correct "must be true" answer. It isn't always easy to tell what could be true and what must be true apart in the beginning. Telling the difference will c…

Vanderbilt has their Law Scholars program, which awards named full tuition scholarships and a $5000 stipend to a few members of their incoming class each year. It's separate from their standard application, so if you're interested, be sure to send …

Not quite in the northeast, but Vanderbilt has their Law Scholars Program, which guarantees a full tuition scholarship plus $5000/year stipend to those who are selected. Your numbers would probably be very competitive! It's a separate application, …

I also got an unsolicited interview request from WUSTL way back in September, when I hadn't applied yet either. I was very impressed by the how personable the admissions representative was and how friendly the school seems overall. They even came to…

Their 25th percentile is a 166. While this isn't necessarily low, it definitely implies that they are willing to go low_er_ than other top 5 schools in exchange for stellar GPAs. My LSN seems to show a relatively high acceptance rate for 165+ with a…
