@iamcardibri what you are saying makes sense.
I do understand that Native Hawaiians/Other Pacific Islanders are not specified specifically as a URM according to LSAC. However, I do think that when a law school is trying to fill a diverse class, NH/…
I am not a mother, but I do have a one-week old niece and a 2 year old nephew who I've been close to since he was born. They live across the street from me, so its constant interaction. I'll start off by saying that you can do anything you set your …
During one of the recent RC sessions with JY, he said that you shouldn't be taking more than 1 PT per week. He emphasized that 2 PTs every 3 weeks would be ideal. Take the time to blind review, analyze, write out explanations, reaffirm your thinking…
Don't put the cart ahead of the horse. I'm guilty of this as I'm sure so many other prospective law students are as well. I've spent a ridiculous amount of time running through my chances of acceptance, and where I "should" apply if I get x or y LSA…
I heard a piece of advise that I thought was beneficial, so I'll repeat it. The week before the exam, if you must take a timed PT, take one that you have already taken before. I think this could be true for individual timed sections also. It is a wa…
@Micolash uGPA of 3.7 is great and definitely I don't think hope is lost. However, if you are still in school completing your undergraduate degree, you have the ability to take extra classes and raise your GPA. Once you graduate, it's set and it can…
You can also apply to schools you don't plan on attending and use their acceptances or scholarships as leverage, you don't necessarily have to limit your applications to schools in Florida. Typically, you want to have acceptances to higher ranked sc…
This is a pretty long and detailed topic/debate. Kanaka Maoli are indigenous people of the Hawaiian Islands, and therefore Native American. This topic has been debated between Hawaiians and the federal government for years. Since you are Tongan, I d…
ditto @testfromaway the learning will happen substantially with blind review. Drilling is great but it won't fully prepare you for the exam. Take practice tests, video yourself taking them, blind review them, analyze the videos. Then drill certain q…
Try to get as consistent sleep as possible. As for the routine, if you can at least maintain a steady sleep and wake up routine it might put your body at ease. I think the purpose is to not put unnecessary stress on your body. Even just a cup of tea…
This isn't really advice for the June test as it is for July... but when I take a 4 section test, I don't take a break just work straight through to build up stamina. I've also done five section tests with no break. I was having a similar issue with…
The Theory of Everything - the life Hawking lived after being diagnosed with ALS and everything he accomplished is mind-boggling. Also inspiring, his wife raised three kids and graduated with her PhD while caring for Hawking. Watching the movie empo…
I took the exam Dec 17 using self-study: powerscore bibles, LSAT PT, and 7sage LG videos. I was scoring in the 165-168 range and ended up scoring 160. I blame part of it on burnout, but I've also realized that I didn't have as strong of an understan…
Don't take it. Study and take it when you are ready. I agree with everything thats been said, another note is that you'll be able to use June 2018 in your prep for June 2019. Why waste a recent exam if the plan is to retake? I don't know anyone who …
If you are questioning a postponement, it is probably for the best to postpone. I'm not sure how you felt for December and February tests, chances are you didn't feel confident you would score
"Beginning the application process", as your friends put it, is more or less looking at schools you'd be interested in attending, looking over their LSAT and GPA percentiles, and then determining where you should be scoring in order to have a high…
Aloha Leah! I’m in a very similar boat, but I decided not to apply late, considered a Feb retest but then decided on June. Only to not look at prep material until two weeks ago. Now September is seeing more likely. It’s HARD to get back into the stu…
I'm not certain the impact that LORs will have on your admission decision, however, may I suggest speaking with your professor and relaying your concern about the delayed letter? I do understand professors get busy towards the end of semesters, but …
