@goingfor99th this sounds like a pretty solid plan. Thank you for the feedback and good luck with admissions and making your final decision

boring?

Michigan seems to place a lot of emphasis on clerkships; the numbers reflect that, with around 12% federal clerkship rate (Northwestern 7%). The representatives from Michigan that I've spoken to always bring this up to potential students. Northweste…

It's not about law school, but I enjoyed reading "24 Hours with 24 Lawyers" https://www.amazon.com/24-Hours-Lawyers-Traditional-Non-Traditional/dp/0314276319

@Aspiring1L said: Aren't we all looking for that ROI? Of course we are. My point is that it'd be foolish to attend a high rank school that's going to put you $150K+ in debt just because certain reports reflect great employment outcomes and bar…

I'm sure you know this, but i'm gonna say it anyway. Don't get your hopes up too high on your reach school. It's awesome to have this dream, but it's not healthy to be too attached to something that is so uncertain. It's not like you can work hard a…

@JerryClarke242 said: So its been a month since I last took a PT and my actual score went from 139-144 and my BR went from 159-166. I'm guessing the advice is still the same? or? This is major, congrats on the improvement. I think whenever y…

@claudiaasocias said: Thanks guys. Interested more in firm type work. What really concerns me is debt. Would probably be graduating with about $180,000 (assuming I don't receive any other private offers). A year is significant. However, from…

I think that part of the reason for the correlation between law school success and high LSAT scores is that high LSAT scores require a long and rigorous study period. Such preparation suggests that higher scoring students are more committed to the l…

It depends upon your LSAC GPA; if you have a high GPA they probably wont care that much about your major. If you're a borderline candidate, then this major might tip you away from the accept and into the waitlist.

Do some more timed prep in addition to meditation. The 15in15 --> 25in25 strategy plus meditation each morning and evening worked for me.

This is psa I think, even though the word principle is confusing

I assume if you have strong connections you'll get a BigLaw job in KC coming from either school as they are similarly ranked. I'd pick the one that you feel more comfortable with, that you feel will foster your education better as a future lawyer. N…

Be diligent when going through the Core Curriculum. Afterward, use the post Core Curriculum webinar: https://classic.7sage.com/webinar/post-core-curriculum-study-strategies/. This will give you a good sense of what the entire process looks like. I …

I will post his answers here in the thread as well

The t14 are generally considered to be of the highest prestige. As such, the employment statistics and other post-graduation benefits are very high. The 14 is somewhat arbitrary though, you could do 10, 15, 12 or whatever. As far as the t25 is conc…

Regardless of the LSAT, if you're losing your mind and can't imagine working there for another year, it's time to find a new job. The reason to stay is financial security. As I am not aware of your financial situation, I cannot make that call. Good…

I'd expect that if they are flying you out, they're probably going to sell you the Berkeley program, not the other way around.

Two PT's per week is probably too many. I'd say one per week is even ambitious. Taking two PT's on back to back days will be a waste of good material and time that could be spent toward a better BR and PT cycle. Check out the webinar (if you haven'…

I'd ask a lawyer?

What about the droid attack on the wookies??

The primary goal of law school is to get a job after graduation. I'd be wary of any school with lower than 75% BAR employment at 6-months graduation. I think this is the main reason why the t14 and t25 are put on a pedestal. The further down the ran…

If you go to the LSAT analytics tab, you can see the passage and game difficulty. It ranks a question, and a passage (or game for LG) from 1-5 difficulty. I can say that a 162 is an extremely rare (and high) diagnostic score. A -3 on LG is actually…

Professional, not sloppy. I'd recommend a long-sleeve polo, no wrinkly, wonky collar (get a new one if you have to); Banana Republic or something similar is fine. Navy chinos and some dark dress shoes, you're killing it. The sport coat is an eh, why…

It's important that we know what your numbers are. You say below the 25th percentile, but that number changes for every single school. Every school puts different weight on each part of the application. Usually, if you have a low GPA you have to of…

I think taking a diagnostic without any other prep is important @"C.M. Hethcox" said: That's what I was thinking. I'm going to wait a few weeks and then take it. Thanks You should have a basic understanding of the thing that you're prepar…

Get your degree first, take a gap year after you graduate, get a part-time job, spend possible free time studying for the LSAT at a nice leisurely pace.

7sage is worth every penny.

Work through the Core Curriculum as it is ordered. JY is very intetional about the order that we see the material. You don't have to do all of the questions in each section before moving on, but i'd do at least half. Once you're finished with the C…
