If you're not going to score what you need to get into the schools you want to attend, then taking the September LSAT really does nothing for you. If you have reason to be particularly nervous about test day (have experienced test anxiety in the pas…

Jumping in here late, but it sounds like you made a solid decision to push back. I pushed my LSAT back twice before sitting for it last December. And then I ended up withdrawing one more time (I applied last cycle and there were some issues with get…

Yes, absolutely! You are not alone in feeling that way. I struggled a lot with all the alone time from studying. The cycle of working full time, coming home in the evening, eat dinner, study, then sleep and repeat... that really got to me. I’ve be…

I am interested, as long as it is ok to come late. Again, west coast time here so the time is during business hours. But I can join probably around 9-9:30pm EST as long as it would still be worth it for that amount of time.

I think the trick to them is really just being so solid on your fundamentals that you can figure out how to improvise. Since they're all different, there's not really any one helpful hint for it. My biggest hint for taking in September is to keep y…

The time calculator isn't really all that accurate, depending on your circumstances. I believe it includes all of the problem sets and all of the practice tests. As noted above, you won't need to do all the problem sets while doing the curriculum. Y…

@MindyKale said: @"Leah M B" Are the recent misc games more reflective of the earliest LSATS (10s or 20s) ? Hmm... I don't think so. It's so hard to describe these things haha. I don't think they're as random as those old games. But they jus…

NICE! Great work!!
-
There are always going to be subtle differences, the test does change over time. I think there have been more miscellaneous games recently. There are certainly differences between tests in the 40s vs tests in the 70s/80s. Not just with comparative r…

Your goal is to always put forth the strongest application possible. Adcoms will not necessarily be that impressed by having a big name politician. What they want to know is the quality of work that you do, and why they should choose you over anothe…

Nothing to add here except, I truly feel your pain. I do decently well at RC but am hot garbage at all the inferring author's perspective. I don't know why that phases me so freakin much, but it does. Arrrgghhhh. Following here in case you get some …

Any chance this was done after your bachelor's? If it was, then it won't count toward your cumulative GPA. If it was prior to your bachelor's, then it will. And either way, you will definitely have to submit it, as the others said.
-
Not that different. They're not that long ago.

Hi there, welcome to 7sage! Obviously, @LSATcantwin is a beast and ended up with a great outcome. So proud of him! I definitely think you have a shot. To be realistic though, it's going to be an uphill battle. I'd really recommend you try to get yo…

Yeah, I'd say if you wanted to create a portfolio site and include the address in your resume header, it might be nice. Since there are multiple uploads involved, I wouldn't count on hyperlinks actually working properly by the time they reach the ad…
-
Above advice is great. Really, the best thing you can do is get a great LSAT score to bolster the GPA. Since you have a pretty busy life, I'd make sure to spend a good amount of time studying. You'd be best off with a 170+ to balance out the GPA, an…
-
Sounds like you got the help you needed already, but just agreeing with the others. I mean, you don't need 10 minutes to review if you get them all right on the first pass. If you do 25 in 35 but you get them all correct, it's totally fine. Or even …
-
Studying while working full time (and planning a wedding, no less!) is very difficult. The biggest advice I can give is that you need to be very efficient with your studying. My schedule tends to look like this: Monday-Friday: try to do 1 timed se…
-
There’s some good advice here already. I definitely think you should wait until you have the 3.0. Either way you’re going to be a splitter, but there does seem to be a cut off at many schools around a 3.0. If you apply before securing that GPA, it’s…
-
I definitely like the images better than video, the videos didn't always load for me. And when they did, it was usually slow. But yeah, I'm seeing the same thing. Some of the questions fit, but some of them I have to scroll to be able to see all of…

Haha most people start turning the page when they say "turn the page". It's really only a couple of seconds but it lines up to be just about when your page settles down that they say "now", so the timing is just about right.
-
Oh interesting. I hadn't seen that. I personally never played the videos so that part doesn't bother me. But it is a bummer that the question and all answer choices don't fit on one screen, you have to scroll to see part of it. I'm guessing it might…

While you can definitely improve on LG, as others said, 2 weeks is mostly too short of a time to make really large gains. Since you do generally know how to do these, I think for the Sept test you should focus on your test-taking skills. I'm guessi…

If you are still working your way through the cc, then I wouldn't try to finish all the problem sets just yet. Do maybe 1 or 2 sets just so you familiarize yourself with it, and then move on to the next section. You can work on really drilling and u…

Every school words their C&F questions differently. Most will ask if you've been formally disciplined at a school you attended, and in that case you would definitely need to say yes and disclose it. If you haven't checked out 7sage's Admissions …

@LSATcantwin said: @"Leah M B" I didn’t get that tag notification for some reason? Just happened upon it? Bummer! But turns out you didn't need it anyway, hahah.
-
Agreed with all the others. The one thing to note is that you will be a splitter and splitter cycles tend to be extremely unpredictable. You'll want to apply very broadly, to a lot of schools.
-
The core curriculum is generally around 2-3 months to get through, depending on your individual pace. The additional problem sets and logic games packet would be in addition to that, and then you would focus on drilling and prep tests. The 18 months…
