Also, is it possible to randomly find it on a Google search? If so I would disclose everywhere. Just because a background check might not be international doesn't mean that this couldn't easily turn up elsewhere given the nature of the Internet.
-
When in doubt, always disclose. This incident is not a big deal and at least a few years ago and so shouldn't really hurt you on your applications. What will hurt you is someone finding out and you didn't disclose it in the first place. Just read ev…

If you haven't been through any type of curriculum/book to teach you the test you absolutely need to do that first. Blindly PTing when you have no idea what the test is all about is a complete waste of time and resources if your diagnostic isn't alr…

You're likely spending way too much time on easy to medium questions when they should mostly be done in under a minute, some well under a minute. Next issue is you are probably spending way too much time on harder questions the first time around. Y…

You know you can apply AND retake (if necessary or desired) right?

@"LSAT Determined" said: What's more important? The LSAT raw score or percentile? Neither. The scaled score is the only thing that matters since that is what gets reported to USNWR.

It's not burnout, it's that you don't have a solid foundation of fundamental skills. You really need to pick up some sort of resource that will teach you the test. Simply getting explanations for PTs is not sufficient to do that. And you are throwin…

That's pretty much still in your score band so I wouldn't worry about that, in fact that is better than most people do in that transition. Once you start getting more than 5-7 points off your average multiple times then you might need to address som…

Oh I understood what you were saying, I just don't think it's a good use of your time to try to work on timing by drilling rather than PTing. Plus life invariably gets in the way and your 3 PTs a week might turn into 1 or 2 at times and then you end…
-
What is your PT average versus your target score? What is your BR average? How many PTs have you taken? What types of questions are you struggling with? What sections do you have timing issues on? Drilling is overrated in my opinion. You really ne…

@lsatequalsfml said: I really wanted to prove that score was just a massive fluke. This is the problem right here. You can't exact revenge on the LSAT by taking another PT and doing better. You're just trying to reward yourself through instant gra…

You really want to get to a place where your skills are developed to the point where if you are mapping out 5 questions per section that is too many. 2-3 at most per section is what you want to shoot for, especially as the LSAT continues to move awa…

I don't think they have a hard date yet. I would imagine mid-November given the time it takes to make them all and the condensed timeline they are working with.

Get the grad school prof LORs if they will be excellent. You're falsely conflating grad GPA not being as important as uGPA with adcoms not respecting grad school. This is not remotely the case. Don't take the LOR form the UG prof. Reach out to you…

@josephellengar said: I never did a single 5-section preptest in my entire study (except for the first two official tests, of course). I honestly think it's a waste of time. I think you're saying that it's a waste of time to do it in order to mimi…

This took me about 15 minutes to cobble together. And no, I will not do this for everyone, not only because I don't have the time or the interest, but because this needs to be a fundamental part of everyone's process in applying to law school. I am …

@silcal11 said: I was young and stupid; didn't know what I wanted. I think you should write a very brief addendum about the grades since I'm assuming they factored into your LSAC GPA and maybe even your degree GPA at your school, and you could co…

@"Jonathan Wang" said: that's on you, not the test. T-shirt material right there.

This is still too vague... For example... If you're talking HYS then no scores will be good enough since they don't award merit scholarships. And as I said before, just because you get an offer doesn't mean it's the best the school will give you. So…

I think they were asking about earning them rather than keeping them. Though the vague nature of the question and the language used does leave room for interpretation. Most scholarships are going to come with stipulations regardless, and I've never …

@LSATKingsman said: This question is so un-answerable TITCR Also, merit scholarships come from your numbers, your leverage, and your ability to negotiate.

@fib099 said: Also, come December I intend to have taken at least 35 PTs. I'm working towards that goal now, and am about 2/5ths of the way through. If what you are saying is accurate then you have only taken 14 PTs so far, and plan to take 21 mor…

@decamillisa PM me your details (e.g.-where you're at in your prep, if you have taken any PTs before, etc.) and I will be able to advise you on the best course of action.

Thanks Ginger!

Don't bother with 6 section tests... Sounds like you had some adrenaline rolling that might have been blinding you to the nerves you were actually experiencing. In any event, something happened that likely led you to stray from your fundamentals and…
