@PearsonSpecterLittUp Weird! Haven't heard of that rule or anything. Have you called LSAC to find out if they have a policy on that or why you can't register? And @taytay91: 1 - Yes, you won't get a numerical GPA. So, your LSAT score will be very …

Over-thinking haha. The system converts it to PDF I think. And it allows you to preview before you submit. I can see my apps from last year, they all end up in one long PDF with the application. I used Word and no formatting problems at all. Convert…

I feel like personally, if I was right at both medians, I would feel more like 50/50 getting in. Depends on the school though. The more competitive, the lower the odds since they just take so few people. They won't necessarily take every, or even mo…

... and also, I could never get through a whole PT after a day of work haha. That would crush me. So, not really an option in my mind haha.
-
I personally think 1 PT per week is plenty. I take them on Saturdays, sometimes in the morning, sometimes not. I think full PTs are best used just for building stamina and checking in on your average score. I typically would go through timed sectio…

Since I don't know all that much about this myself, I did some googling and read some more info. I think these articles are really helpful: https://blog.powerscore.com/lsat/why-to-become-a-judicial-law-clerk-after-law-school https://law.utexas.edu…

Some people do take a few weeks to focus solely on LG and foolproof all the games in the 1-35 packet. I personally was working on a short timeframe, so chose to do foolproofing mixed in with studying other sections. I think concentrating on foolproo…

I personally feel like it's not that helpful to time individual questions (at least for quite a while). When it comes to taking a test, the questions are going to take varying amounts of time. Some will be super easy and you should do them in less t…

Just did some googling (because I'm nerdy and curious haha), and it looks like in the US, hispanic usually refers to anyone from a Spanish-speaking country/culture. Latino generally refers to people from Latin America, which wouldn't include Spain. …

A good way to do it is select a PT to use for your 5th sections and intersperse it over 4 PTs. So every time you finish 4 PTs, you've actually done 5 total.
-
Well, JY's advice and my actual habits are different, so it's hard to answer your poll haha. I definitely think there's an advantage to taking 5 section PTs. That is what JY recommends, and what many people around here do. I occasionally do a 5 sec…

Hmm, that is such a good question! I don't think I've seen it answered anywhere. If you happen to know what schools you are interested in, it might not hurt to call their admissions departments and see if they have a policy. The only veteran I know …

I think in a lot of situations, you can check Hispanic and also a race (black, white, etc) since Hispanic includes lots of various races (black Hispanic, white Hispanic, etc). I feel like I would consider Spain as white Hispanic typically? And that …

If you let it expire, you shouldn't lose any of your data if you want to sign back up or extend. @studentservices @akistotle That's correct, right? Or it were to expire, could Niki purchase an extension and not the full up front price again too?

@eRetaker said: @"Leah M B" Yeah LSAC seemed to have rejected people with incomes below $30k for fee waivers. Bonkers
-
@katewillis91 said: I think this is a dumb question but the fee waivers don't cover the CAS report fees right? $45 for report is outrageous. Yep. Ugh. Those fees can only be waived by LSAC. They do give need-based waivers, but I think their …

Yep! Same exact thing.

If you haven't watched this webinar yet, highly highly recommend it: https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/post-core-curriculum-study-strategies/ There's more to drilling than just question types as well. Josh goes over confidence drills, which I think…

I'm pretty sure it's fine. The 7sage folks know that we all have a vested interest in using admissions services and allow for discussion on that, reviews, etc. This isn't the place for paid advertisements though haha. But I think asking if anyone ha…

@NotMyName said: By the way, Michigan's fee waiver email was super informal lol. A nice change of pace. That's part of what drew me to Michigan last year. Their communications are all top notch. A nice, friendly, casual tone. And when I got …

GPA is somewhat less significant, but still very important. It depends on the school though. Chicago is known for having higher GPA standards than any other school. But they also want a high LSAT. Also, retaking LSAT is obviously always an option t…

I would probably call the admissions office and ask if that question includes high school. They would be able to let you know.
