Hm, that's interesting about the tinnitus. I have a touch of it too, but usually not enough to bother me. (Not from military, but... from a Hanson concert. True story lol. Don't judge me.) Have you tried taking a PT in some place that's not absolut…

Gosh I can't wait to see the judge's opinion section that was such a doozie!

@uhinberg said: @"Leah M B" said: It sounds from your post that you might be under the impression that schools can see if you postponed your LSAT date? Good point! Sounds like you've been practicing necessary assumption que…

Brain fatigue is real, man! I haven't been doing nearly that much work but went through a phase where I was getting worse on LR and after taking about 3 days off and re-joining normal life for a bit, came back way stronger. Really just 1 PT per week…

It looks like different schools have their own deadlines. One school I'm applying to said January 15 and I saw deadlines in February for others. So probably school by school. As noted in another thread, some schools also require you to submit parent…

It sounds from your post that you might be under the impression that schools can see if you postponed your LSAT date? They definitely cannot! They will see if you take the test and cancel your score, but withdrawing and changing to another date has …

I might just attach the 2, and only the third if it is required. I'm no expert, but probably better to have fewer LORs than one that's not quite as personal or rosy.

Hey there - can you give a little more info on what you mean by semester breaks? If you mean like, spring break or winter break, no. Summers, you should definitely list if you were working or doing an internship or anything. If you mean that you too…

Yeahhhhhh! Thanks @"Dillon A. Wright"!!

Haha yes this thread is old but always relevant. I'm a terrible insomniac too! Just naturally a night owl, and then sometimes I get anxiety at night that just doesn't allow my brain to shut off. Sometimes I'll be SO tired but completely incapable of…

Checking in with all the others, I’m 33 and am in a similar boat, may also push back a cycle. I’m diving in though, going to apply this year and if offers/$$ aren’t what I need, then I’ll re-apply next year. I say just keep plugging along and gener…

I feel like it kind of depends on where you started. It seems like most folks with diagnostics in the 140s up to about low 150s have an initial jump because a lot of that has to do with basics, format of the test, etc. Seems like from about mid 150s…
-
I think there is an option of accommodations where the test is read aloud to you. Do you think something like that might help? I’m sorry, it sounds like a tough situation. I had a family member with a similar issue, no learning disability and they’d…
-
Also a few schools that I was interested had information on fee waivers on their websites. So I’d suggest starting there first - search the website for “fee waivers”, then if nothing comes up, send a short and sweet email.
-
Yeah sometimes old threads are worth a bump. I think I agree with a lot of the analysis above. I wasn't ever rigid with pre-phrasing, but I feel like newer tests have more answer choices with very subtle differences, making them traps. It was easie…
-
Hahaha I like the initiative of prepping for any scenarios. Also I am a miserable jerk when it's that hot, so I would not have the fortitude to turn off the AC. 62 and blue skies in the northwest today. BEST fall weather!
-
@Sarah889 Totally, for that one specifically seems like it'd be best to contact admissions and clarify since there's an argument both ways. And @"Dillon A. Wright", good tip! I honestly hadn't thought of that, haha. I have a couple speeding tickets…
-
Although the language above does say specifically "cited" not just convicted. It doesn't hurt to disclose, correct? (I don't think anyone will look negatively on a speeding ticket, but might look negatively on not disclosing one.) At least one app …
-
I think it depends on if the certificate was completed before or after you finished your bachelors. If it’s after, then no they won’t include it.

There are some key words that will clue you in. Things like... ...these 6 things will happen, one after another = sequencing ... will be selecting people for a committee = likely in/out (you're either on the committee or not) ... 6 movies will be…

I'm with you on this... I've been out of college for 11 years but it feels like a lifetime already! I've contacted 1 professor who I was close with and have lightly stayed in touch over the years. (The luxury of going to a small school!) I'm plannin…
-
Yeah, I don't think there's a way to see it except for at check out. I believe you can sort of "fake" check out to see if the fee has been applied. Basically act as if you are submitting the application, and then cancel just before you would submit …
-
Yeah I did some researching and it looks like the majority of schools have exceptions if you're 30+ and sometimes if you're married, but at least on UCLA's site and application it looks like there's no exception. It just says this: "UCLA School of …
-
Ugh, I might make a few phone calls to specific schools to double check that there aren't any exceptions. It looks like a number of schools have an exception for being over age 30, but UCLA in particular just says it is mandatory. If it's just 1 sch…

Nothing to do with professionalism, but coincidentally I just saw this line on UC Davis's application instructions: "E-mail will be the primary means of communication for both the admission and financial aid offices. Applicants must provide an e-ma…

Thanks for posting, I've actually had the same question. Usually nail it after watching the explanation and not sure how many times I should keep doing it, haha. I like the strategy though @"Alex Divine", thanks!
-
Checking in also, I'd love to swap but I'm still in early stages of writing it. So, wanting to swap but need a bit of time first to get a draft, hahah.

Infer Perspective is my worst question type across the board. So, I'm no help to you but checking in to see if anyone else has advice hahah.
