  • I like that you're making me really process this statement, but I do think that JY has it correct. Parsing a bit... Allen goes to the park every day Lawgic: A (Allen goes to the park) ... except on days when Chris goes to the park C --> /A …
  • I don't know a lot about ED at Penn specifically. Is there a guaranteed scholarship? Not sure of your financial situation, but if scholarship money matters to you then ED is rarely a great choice unless there is a guaranteed scholarship amount (like…
  • Hey! Fellow Seattleite I’m guessing? I’m thinking you would have a shot there at least. I’m really confident too that they would take Feb LSAT. Since they have to compete with UW, I think SU admissions are a lot more flexible. If you are local here…

  • @LSATcantwin said: @"Leah M B" said: Hahah. Oh man. This is a weird comment, but let's just say that my work has brought me into contact with the metal world and it is interesting haha. I've learned to appreciate metal over the yea…
  • @akistotle said: Yea PT26.S1.Game 4 is a difficult In/Out game. I've done this so many times! (same, @"Leah M B"!) Let us know if there's any part of JY's video that you don't understand. I was going to try to be helpful and work through it …
  • Hahah. Oh man. This is a weird comment, but let's just say that my work has brought me into contact with the metal world and it is interesting haha. I've learned to appreciate metal over the years, but still not my cup of tea. I get too stressed out…
  • Yeah, agreed with all the others. I would say a polite, "thank you for your honesty, I totally understand." And move on. Since you are not far removed from school, it's really important to get an academic LOR. It doesn't necessarily have to be some…

  • Oh man. I started out with the LG bible and I feel like what you're struggling with is where that method let me down too. I like some of their methods, but I felt like I would end up with like half a page of simple inferences written down and didn't…
  • Oh gosh I just looked up 26.1.4. I hate that game! Haha. It definitely is in/out w/sub categories, but I think also with a twist (those 1st and 2nd years and chairperson designations). It's super obnoxious and difficult. I've done this one so many t…
  • @lsatplaylist said: @tringo335, @"Leah M B", NTS as well here. Here's to making positive career and educational changes. Woo! It's a huge challenge to make a change later in life, but I really think it'll be worth it.
  • Gosh you guys are the best. And way more optimistic about my options than I am haha. That's why I needed some input I think. I started thinking maybe I should apply to more top schools but then was second guessing it. Some really good things to thin…
  • I’m lmb38 but essentially no data yet since apps aren’t out.
  • @goingfor99th said: I just created an account. How do I share the link? I can't find it. My name is, "iliketolearn." Congrats on UCB! Our stats are super similar, and I'm also first gen. Haha. I'll be curious to see how your cycle pans out. …
  • No. I think some slight humor is ok at times in personal statements or given a light-hearted prompt from a school. But I don't think your resume is the right time for it.
  • Yeah, I agree with the others. I'm thinking conditional logic is what you need to practice. Here are a few things to review: This one was crucial for me. I've had to really, really practice especially to remember how to walk a long chain backwards …
  • @westcoastbestcoast said: Although I don't certainly condone the fact that wealth may give some applicants an undue advantage, I feel that, on balance, law school admissions are heavily merit-based. For many things in life, inborn advantages l…
  • @"Seeking Perfection" said: If you are applying top 3, then sink the fees and if it works this cycle, go. Generally, people worry about applying late because there are fewer scholarships available. Those schools don't offer merit scholarships …
  • I think that light-hearted would work for these but maybe wouldn't foray into the neighborhood of goofy. Like maybe not books of bad poetry, but I personally might say Tina Fey's book because she is a legit inspiration to me and expand a bit on how …

  • I'm 11 years out of undergrad and just in the last several years had thought about law school off and on. It interested me, and I think my brain just works in a way that makes sense for it. I'm known to obsessively research things (want to know the …
  • I would definitely say option A. They probably get a lot of essays about the same characters and would appreciate a new one. It's also more about your writing and insightfulness than about knowing who a character is. They might even appreciate the b…
  • Yep, always guess! No penalty for wrong answers, always better to have something than nothing.
  • @cynnnnnn said: @"Alex Divine" @"Leah M B" @"Seeking Perfection" @tanes256 follow up question...do you guys have any recommendations for a 6-month study plan? I'm not sure how long it takes to go through the CC, but I'm estimating 1-2 months b…
  • Yep, echoing all the above. With your background and GPA, a 168+ would make you very competitive for T14. If you could crack 170, you’d be all set. A 162 is very unlikely to get you into a T14, even with really impressive softs. You could apply now …
  • @kimmy_m66 said: Okay. I figured it out. My bf has been incredible to me these past few months of studying, so I got him these socks: https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B074WLC7BB/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 He's an a…
  • ... and now life steps in. My car broke down in the middle of the freeway last night. Just paid $500 to get it fixed up. So the balance of my chattels money that I hadnt spent will be going to whatever stupidly practical item I need next. Sigh. Or …
