But in the bizarre situation you had a 3.9+, 170+ and then went to a shitty law school and ended up #1 I could see you still transferring into Harvard since their transfer class is so big. Of course that person is probably a red flag for going to su…

^This is a person who has done what is called research folks. Try it sometime, it does wonders. This is a major life decision so it's worth putting at least a little effort into the process outside of LSAT prep. And there is a ton of free informatio…

But again there are so many variables that can prevent you from reaching the top 10% of your class that it's not a strategy that you should be relying on when attending law school. Just go in believing you'll spend 3 years at that school and you'll …

That being said there are certain places that feed into other schools pretty regularly... The Hastings to Boalt connection comes to mind as the former is often just full of 1L gunners trying to get into the latter. So it makes for a very unusual env…

They are, just not as much as your 1L grades. The general consensus is that you need to have been in the realm of possibility the first time around to transfer somewhere. Of course if you end up #1 in your class that changes the calculus a bit.

Just warm up before you head over and then just chill out when you get to the test center...
-
That's a terrible idea... You can't know if it's a hard PF or an easy PF unless you read it. You can't be scared of a wall of text. And you can't approach the test while scared of any question types because you will just end up leaving the low hangi…

If that's what you took away from the BR videos then you're missing the forest. As @badgalriri alluded to, once you start taking PTs you can save the ones you get wrong and make a 25 question experimental LR section and it will be the hardest sectio…

I have no idea where you got this stack of questions nonsense from. Just go through the course, do as many problem sets as you need to in order to understand the concepts, not to attain perfection. Save the rest for later, finish the curriculum, tig…

But if you mean test wise... Then an RC passage, a game, and 5-10 random LR questions...

Shadow boxing and push-ups.

If Cambridge still has PDFs just snag those before it is too late.

@Allagash19 said: long commute to my advantage and actually study while I sit on the train. Train? You should've said so. That changes things entirely. My first suggestion would've been audiobooks for RC topic familiarization if you were driving. …

I knew you would come through with that.

Grab the 7Sage starter pack (if you don't care about not having the explanations for newer PTs) and The LSAT Trainer. That will set you back less than $250 so you can spend the rest on PTs and testing materials. Go through them one after the other a…

The only real change of note I have seen is less conditional logic and greater emphasis on correlation/causation flaws, subset issues (part/whole), survey/study flaws, and a few other flaws that could be related to one or more of these issues. Thi…
-
For questions with arguments, I think the two biggest red flags are as follows: Can't ID the conclusion: Skip it. Can't see the flaw/Think it's a good argument: Hold onto the conclusion for dear life, Read the ACs and if they don't speak to you, Sk…

If that's an accurate transcription it literally says G is in an aisle seat in the rule.

You really need to have someone else look at it even if it's just a friend or family member. That is a ridiculously long PS and you really need to put yourself in the position of the readers going through dozens of apps in one sitting. A long PS ris…

Have you taken a PT before? Testing individual sections is not the same as taking PTs. You should have been taking PTs the whole time rather than doing individual sections as you're training for a marathon not a sprint.
-
Your first question is ridiculously vague. If you go to a T14 and then transfer down to a T3 school then your chances are likely at or near 100%. But on the realistic side of things, the worse the school you attend, the higher in your 1L class you n…

There are no games that require brute forcing. There may be certain questions for certain games that require it, but that is a much different issue. Furthermore, even when brute forcing is required, you really need to check to see if any ACs can be …
-
Yes you always count everything that you know where it is, it doesn't matter how it got there. The only thing you need to be careful of in these types of questions is whether it asks how many overall, or how many other, in the former it is the total…

In the past 5 years only PT 68 ranks as even having harder games by 7Sage's data. They just dress stuff up a little more, but even the games on October's test were really easy they just threw people off for one reason or another.
-
If you're doing the hotel thing the night prior it's not s bad idea to check out what they have for breakfast so you can supplement if necessary.

Scrambled eggs on toast, one banana, and bulletproof coffee.

Garbage GPA means you need a legit LSAT... If you have a 4.0 then you can get away with a lower LSAT score. What I wrote above is what is called "targeted advice".
-
Mine was 2 pages. Ideally this is what you should shoot for because most schools that have a limit it seems to be two pages. Applying to 13 schools I only had to tweak it for two, one wanted
-
Depending on what you mean by not so stellar GPA you have pretty much no shot at a good school with an LSAT like that. Even if you are a URM you're going to need something to give the school to mitigate one or both of your numbers and I'm not seeing…

What you don't want to do is drop an app before retaking because you never get a second chance to make a first impression.
