I think it depends on context here. Since I worked full time while studying, I could only really effectively study for about 2 hours on any given weeknight. I don't think that meant I was lazy. In fact, that's what most folks working full time avera…

@slandholm Not trying to lecture, and wasn't joking about anything. I was only trying to be helpful, because you were looking for advice. The best advice I can give is that 6 weeks is not enough time to prep for the LSAT, and I think you'll do yours…

@NotMyName's questions are important to know. Also, just want to say that when I first started, my scores were wildly all over the map. I'd score anywhere between 158 and 167. The longer I studied, the more consistent I became. So, it may just be th…

People in this thread are being extremely optimistic. If you haven't been studying and are starting right now, you're not going to get through the 7sage course. It's going to be very individual and dependent on how quickly you pick things up. Some w…

The waiver doesn't really factor in here - they're nice to receive, but don't say anything to the odds of being admitted. If you think something is worth an addendum, then you should include it everywhere. LSAT typically matters more, but your GPA i…

Call LSAC and find out what's up. The school should have gotten it, no need to do anything. Last year, a few weeks after applying (ugh), a school told me that they never received my LSAT score. Had to call LSAC, who told me they had sent it, called …

@"shahla.s-1" Can you elaborate a bit more on the digital LG? What exactly did you hate about it? How was the set up? Was it similar to RC where you could see the game set up alongside each question? And as for scratch paper, you mentioned you were…

Yeah, agreed with @oshun1. With your stats, I don't think you need to ED. Scholarships are negotiable too. I have heard of people negotiating to have conditions taken off of a scholarship. So, if you don't apply ED, you could try for that. The LST …

Yeah, I've seen this disclaimer elsewhere but it usually just says "outside scholarships", which I didn't think about in relations to veteran's benefits, but makes sense that it would be included. They're basically just saying that scholarships that…

@"J.Y. Ping" said: @Gunningfor121 I presume canceling works the same as it does now. @"Leah M B" Skipping, at least, seems to be easier to implement on the new platform. At the bottom of the display, you can see which questions you answere…

Gosh... I mean, I know this is the modern way to take a test but I really can't imagine doing it this way. It totally blows up the test taking strategies so many of us have worked on... circling questions, writing notations, I don't know how you'd s…

Omg... I think my anxiety over this past month has apparently been channeled into 7sage posting haha. THANK YOU 7SAGE! You guys are the bee's knees.

From what I've seen, you don't really need to do a specialization. You just should make sure to take as many relevant courses as possible, and of course try to get summer or school year jobs working in something relevant. It'll vary depending on wha…

If you're still working on the cc, then I really strongly recommend you are not doing full sections yet. The cc is for learning the fundamentals: grammar, question types, how to approach the questions, etc. When you do full sections, you need to wor…

@"surfy surf" Yeah, I'm assuming that's the case. I made sure to update my enrollment year for CRS, but there are at least 4-5 schools that I got waivers from last year that aren't sending them for this one. Super frustrating. Let me know if you hea…
-
@NotMyName Yeah, unfortunately I didn't get one. Several schools that are right in my range and I got waivers for last year didn't send them this time. I think the CRS system doesn't work great for a second round.

This watch looks like a standard rotating bezel watch, but just has colors added to the bezel. I still say, you don't need anything more than what JY recommends (I use it, and a lot of others around here do too): https://www.amazon.com/Casio-Classic…

I won't be able to make this one, FYI.

Would it help to print out reports showing employment stats of various schools, along with info on your odds at the better schools with your current LSAT? That maybe if you frame it in a way of speaking about how you want to have a better shot at go…

It’s definitely going to be a stretch but if NU is your dream school, ED would help. Is GW a full tuition ED? That might also be a solid choice though. Honestly, my recommendation would be that you just push back a year and keep working on the LSAT …
-
I think you have a great plan - apply now and if you do better in Nov, use that for scholarships. The one thing to note is that if you are registered for a future LSAT, most schools won’t mark your application as complete automatically. You’ll have …

Are you still working through the cc? If so, I think it might be helpful to just keep moving. You can always come back and review. Somethings will get easier as you go on though.

@octablue Well, my cycle was a little weird because I applied pretty late. I didn’t get my app in until early Feb. I did the interview in early April and was waitlisted the next day lol. However, in late May I was floated an offer off the waitlist. …

Have fun now, because I think waiting for decisions may have been the most stressful thing for me. You could know soon, or you might not get a decision until March. It’s ibnoxiously unpredictable. So, before you start really stressing on the decisio…
