Just scheduled a skype interview! Now to get an app in... haha

OK, so I just physically wrote it down and once I did that, it was obvious that the key inference is that the xx has to go between the C and A. Here are my notes - there are basically only 2 game boards: https://photos.app.goo.gl/imdCKOjZLkkHH4lp1

A new, big non-stick Dutch oven haha. My roommate is getting married soon and I need to start replacing some kitchen items she’s taking with her when she moves hah.

Haha yep ditto, got the email today and was similarly confused. I was likely going to apply, so was swayed a bit more toward it. Not a bad tactic! Haha

@"Dillon A. Wright" said: Delayed, but @"Leah M B" @tringo335 and @"Paul Caint" are new ⭐ Members! Woo! Congrats to the 2 of you too!! High fives all around. And a huge thank you to the 7sage team, y’all are awesome.

@"jack.igoe" said: @"Leah M B" If you don't mind me asking, what are you doing about applying in the meantime? I think there's a lot of sense in what you're saying about not applying to HSY yet but outside of those 3, what's your strategy? …

For real, you can do this! You have really promising stats. LG is generally the easiest section to improve on and that appears to be a weakness for you. It’s a match made in heaven! 7sage’s LG explanations are available free (because this is also ma…

@"Alex Divine" said: It seems like you're interested in attending a top school, so you already know you'll need to retake. I don't think the 5-6 weeks until the February test is enough time to study properly and hit the 160-165 range you're ai…

@"ila.k1482" said: @"Leah M B" thanks so much for your kind and helpful comment! I think you’re right about the time factor. I’ve been studying since August, but I work full time so I probably haven’t put in the hours. I’m just going to keep a…

Yes, agreed with folks above. LSAT addenda should be for factors like, you were sick on test day, or the test center fire alarm went off mid-test, etc. I’d just advise them that you are taking the February test. Good luck!
-
I vote also that you apply now but also sit for February. That’s what I’m doing as well. A lower score would only affect Yale (I believe they average scores) but nearly all other schools will only consider your highest scores. I don’t think you shou…

I think part of them giving that prompt is to specifically bring out your personality. I agree with Nick though, there might be better ways to do that. I like your idea of a little bit broader topic but to tie in Pokémon or nerd culture stuff into t…

It’s always frustrating when there’s inconsistency, but overall your scores sound really really great. How long have you been studying? And did you go through all of the cc? Have there been a lot of outliers like that 167 PT or has your inconsistenc…
-
My approach would be double layer sequencing. Write out sequencing 1-5 with 2 spaces above each. For the rules, I’d write a vertical box with A and x, and cross it out. A horizontal box with xx. (This also gives you an inference that the lower case…
-
Since you’re applying for fall of 2019, I say yes Re-take. Normally, I wouldn’t say that someone who scored a 173 but it does sound like you could certainly score higher and if you absolutely want Harvard or Yale, then a 176+ would be extremely help…
-
MyLSN looks like you’d have a shot at Georgetown and Cornell, but the rest aren’t super likely. A higher re-take in February could possibly get you in off wait lists as well. A 167 should get you in with a good scholarship at some slightly lower ran…
-
Ugh @TheMikey I’m heart broken for you! You’re so freaking ready and then to have stupid bubbles effing up your score. Freaking worst. Was this your first take or do you have another score on record? Wondering about submitting apps now with an adde…
-
You could check to see whats available now for the February test and that might give you an idea of how booked up June will get. Big cities tend to completely fill up but it’s been pretty back and forth here in Seattle. I once booked around a month …

@"jack.igoe" said: @"Alex Divine" @"Leah M B" Do you guys mean that you're writing one optional essay for all of your schools? Or do you mean that you're writing all of the optional essays for each school? I intend to write one general d…
-
It is a lot, but more so because you need time to review the tests. I did one PT on saturdays and then spent sunday reviewing it. During the week, I did timed sections, usually at least 1 per day. That adds up to being at least 1 more full test per …

Merry Christmas and happy holidays to y’all too! (And a specific, “Hi, I totally get it” to all those who, like me, are currently posting/reading to avoid otherwise stressful situations, haha.)
-
Yeah, AA is URM for sure. I believe that Asian generally is not considered URM (minority, but not typically under-represented) but I’m not sure if South Asian is differentiated by schools or LSAC. Might depend on the specific school/app. So if I wer…

I really agree with Alex. Splitter cycles are always unpredictable, and I think yours will be too. If you want to be super realistic, the very top of the T14 are not super likely to happen. But yes, UVA and Northwestern are probably the most likely.…
-
I’ve also heard advice not to rush in apps just because we have early scores. Always better to submit your best possible application than to get it in 1 week earlier.
-
Oh my gosh, this was such a nice gift to us!!! 7sage, you are way too generous. So grateful for 7sage and everyone here on the board! Happy holidays to all!!
-
I’m in the same boat and was planning to ask a similar question. So, no help from me but I’m watching this thread!

Congrats!! Keep us posted on where you end up. Maybe we'll end up at the same school or events in the spring!
