@ChaimtheGreat said: I have heard maybe two or three of their shows- which ones rag on 7Sage? I am a huge question-stem first person and think 7Sage is the best out there at knowing how to approach the test. From the episodes I listened to, th…

@tekken1225 Haha it's Saved by the Bell. Jessie gets hooked on caffeine pills in that episode... it's a classic. Now, back to my rocking chair... https://media.giphy.com/media/DVytj5DEc7Uqc/giphy.gif

Just the worst. The thing is, lenient or strict, all we really want is consistency. That's what drives me nuts. I wish LSAC could find a way for the proctors to be consistent. And also make their rules clearer on things, so there's less debate about…

Yeah unfortunately, Chicago is basically the pickiest for GPA of any law school. You can ED there if you want, but I think your chances would likely still be slim. Penn would be safer. And no, ED doesn't necessarily affect your scholarship. But for…

I listened to it a decent amount a year ago or so and funny enough, just went back to it and listened to an ep this morning. They definitely have massive flaws, one of which is always bagging on 7sage lol. The recent ep I just heard, someone wrote i…

And not going to lie, there aren't a ton of people here old enough to know this reference, but I couldn't help but picture this: https://media.giphy.com/media/l0Iy6RfxFjVqP8NQQ/giphy.gif

I would guess so? I don't know anything about caffeine pills. As long as they are legal, over the counter med or you have a prescription. Don't bring anything like ritalin that isn't prescribed to you.

Agreed with the others that it doesn't sound like burnout if it's just 1 game. But, it never hurts to take a couple days off to rest if you think it could be burn out.

One more bump for you guys. See above. It’s so true. I walked out of my first LSAT thinking I bombed part of it, had let nerves get the better of me. Turns out, I nailed and scored right in my PT average. Had I canceled, I would’ve been in a bad spo…

@Bamboosprout Yeah, went from $150k to $120k, which means an extra $30k in debt, total would probably be around $150k in debt. My personal goal is to keep debt under $100k. I’m an older student and have no desire for BigLaw, so need to keep debt as …

Oh as for the inspiration thing though... I don’t think something necessarily has to be accurate to be inspiring. Watching someone fight for people’s rights or move up a corporate ladder could be inspiring to some without necessarily portraying what…

@AudaciousRed That is such an awesome idea! Love that. I was called for jury duty early this year and ended up serving on a jury. First time serving after being called 4 times. It was a simple case but was so interesting going through that whole pro…

I’m so sorry, you must be feeling awful. I truly don’t think you have to give up on being a lawyer because of LSAT nerves though! All of us here would love to help you figure out how to beat those nerves. Agree with the above that you should maybe t…

@cqas190517 said: Do they mind if we bring things like chapstick in our pockets? You're technically not supposed to have anything that's not on the "acceptable items" list. But, I did have chapstick in my pocket for my last one... shhhh. I …
-
@Bamboosprout Aw, so nice of you to remember. I ended up withdrawing everything, the financial offers were a bit less than I would need to have it make sense. I applied late in the cycle though, so I think just applying again earlier would open mor…

@eak2165 That's correct - if you withdraw your registration before test day, schools will not know. (I withdrew twice before sitting for an exam myself). They would indeed only see your November score. As long as you plan on canceling your score ei…

@NotMyName said: As a retaker, I definitely think my first take helped prepare me for what's to come on my second take. I experienced a pretty significant score drop on my first test day and hit exactly my PT average the second time. I …

I personally don’t think it’s worth taking before you are ready. Even with unlimited takes, the best admissions advisors out there still say that the best thing you could do is take the LSAT once and nail it. Schools will still see every score and w…

@Ohnoeshalpme said: Are we allowed to bring sports drinks? Anything is fine as long as it’s in a plastic bottle - no glass or aluminum. @Hope2018 You’re also allowed to bring and have on the desk a small pack of tissues (like a travel pack)…

I had 2 toaster waffles with peanut butter, 2 scrambled eggs, a banana, and green tea. For snack I brought 2 larabars (definitely didn't need more than 1 but I was paranoid about getting hungry and being distracted lol) and a bottle of water. The se…

For what it's worth, I've tried that and I found it time consuming and not any better. I do just fine reading both and then answering questions. To each their own! Don't worry that you're using a suboptimal method or something. If it works for you, …

Ah, I missed that. Sorry!! Thanks

@keets993 Curious, do you set up a schedule in advance of which PTs you're going to BR? Just wondering how much warning I'd have. I briefly joined another BR group a long time ago that didn't pick a PT until a day or 2 before the group call and that…
-
Ah, that helps so much. Thanks! My honest take: you are ready to re-take, you just got freaked out by 1 slightly lower (but still very good) PT score. I don't really see a firm reason for pushing back to November. However, if you do push back, I …

I think there is a slight disadvantage to applying in November vs. Sept. However, it would still be much better than applying in late December or January. And infinitely better than applying in February. It's all sort of a sliding scale. I think lat…
