WUSTL is known for being generous with full tuition + stipend. There are certain named scholarships at the T-14 that offer full tuition plus stipend, such as the Rubenstein at UChicago. I'm not sure about housing specific scholarships, but the stipe…

Just pace yourself with the PTs. You generally shouldn't be doing more than one a week, so you have more than a year's worth of PTs going at that rate.

I retook a 169 with PT scores like yours! Got a 172. Definitely worth it, in my opinion. Also, you don't sound lazy or lame at all. You worked your butt off and got an amazing score. I would recommend retaking sooner rather than later. You can defin…

@jmarmaduke96 that makes total sense! I would also think that maybe the improvement to your app that would come from the consulting would make up for any slight loss
-
Bump because I've thought about asking this question as well!

https://mylsn.info/r/pre-law/scholarships/graph/ This is a little bit tedious because you have to do each school individually, but this tool can help you get an idea.

It depends on where you're scoring and what your goal is. If you still need to learn the fundamentals, you should focus on complete understanding rather than speed.
-
If you're feeling overwhelmed, I think the worst thing to do would be skip around the CC. It's arranged the way that it is very purposefully- everything builds on the previous lesson. I think that the structure and schedule will help you feel less o…

It's going to be pretty hard to score a 170 by July. Not impossible by any means, but be prepared to maybe have to delay or retake. I think that going through the core curriculum would definitely help. It takes about two months to go through it, and…

Also, congratulations!!!
-
I think it depends on what your goal is and how close you are to it. I don't think that the June or July test give you enough time to redo the whole CC and PT. I think that redoing the CC is only a waste of time if you already have the fundamental k…
-
The above is great advice! I would echo that it is really important to take your time and fully understand the CC before you move on to more drilling/PTing. I would also recommend that you take advantage of your breaks from school for studying. Reme…
-
Did you take a diagnostic PT? If so, how far off from your goal was it? Honestly, I would almost never recommend taking before you're pretty sure you're ready, BUT in this weird case with July, I'd say go for it. If you don't like your score, it's …
-
In my opinion, three really isn't that bad. However, if you already know that you won't be ready in June, I would strongly recommend that you not take it. While it's not necessarily detrimental to have multiple scores, it's ideal to just have the sc…

Oh my goodness thank you!!!!

I would go ahead and sign up for the area test center. The proctors aren't the same ones for every administration- there's really no way to know if they'll be good or not. I did an area test center and got a hotel, which ended up being great and MUC…

Hey that's awesome!!!
-
Go through the core curriculum first, no PTs. That'll take you a couple months. Then you want to be doing about 1 PT MAYBE 2 per week with serious blind review. Depending on how far you are from your goal, the July test might be pushing it, but almo…

The 7sage predictor gives you a pretty good chance at Brooklyn with those numbers. Of course, the higher the LSAT the better results you'll have, and splitter cycles are harder to predict so you'll really just want to put together the best app you c…
-
I think that going in numerical order is great! Makes it easy to keep track of, and you make sure to expose yourself to the most recent tests. If you're worried about saving PTs for a potential retake, you could also just go in order but only do the…
-
The whole point of the LSAT is kind of that it's a standardized test, meaning, a 160 on one test is the same as a 160 on a different administration. If the PTs were able to be ranked by difficulty, then the scores would be a useless way to compare a…

You can register at lsac.com. As far as studying/curriculum goes, I'm pretty sure almost everyone here will recommend the 7sage course! What are your goals?
-
Different schools have different cutoffs for the various honors. What matters is your actual GPA, not so much the honors. A 3.92 is better than a 3.88 because it's a higher GPA, not because it comes with the higher Latin honor
-
Hmm I'm not really sure what your friend meant by "standard procedure." Your LSAT is a point below their median, so my thoughts are that maybe they're trying to raise their median or are having trouble maintaining it. They may be waiting on admittin…
-
Short answer, yes. Technically, if you have the application fee to just burn, then sure you can. But at this point in the cycle, you'd have to have really competitive numbers. And scholarship money is running out. If you want a good chance to get ac…

This is freaking awesome!

I think that philosophy classes could certainly help. However, I wouldn't recommend taking classes that you'll hate/struggle in just for LR- your GPA is really important too. If something like a philosophy class sounds interesting though, I'd say go…

If I'm counting correctly, it's been fifteen business days. Unless you are planning on accepting a different offer that has a deadline in the next day or two, I would be patient and give them another day.

In addition to the above advice, I would recommend setting weekly study goals that are unrelated to score. For example: This week I will to do X amount of logic games (or problem sets, or whatever) This week I will meditate every morning This wee…
