I would prep with the intensity of an October goal, and reassess by the late registration deadline. Take it in October or don't. Then maintain that same intensity and smoke it in December if you didn't already. December tests do not hurt application…

I've easily erased 20+ full PT's and then retaken them without issue.
I would pay someone 100 bucks to do this painstaking work for me, which is why I would just buy some 10 Actual PT booklets instead. Every time.
Please don't... I've only got 29 days left and can't wait to be a civilian again :P
Five years was long enough to pretend Sergeant was my first name...
He's just talking about the opportunity cost of sacrificing the year of making $160k in order to get a higher score and $150k in scholarship money. However, he doesn't need to take a year off to retake for a higher score, and the argument in his sce…

I think you can rely on getting a Biglaw job if you go to a T14 (minus Georgetown). Over 65% (usually more) at most of the T14 schools get either a a Biglaw job or federal clerkship. Most of the other people don't want Bi…
I was going to say only Wachtell would do that since they used to give 200% bonuses, but I thought I had seen that Wachtell was down to around 50% but upon researching it I couldn't find any of the data again. That being said, you're likely not gett…
FWIW Mike Kim co-founded Manhattan LSAT and co-wrote the Manhattan strategy guides, but I think he focused everything he learned from those experiences to make the Trainer.
@alexandergreene93 who said anything about taking a year off? He's got October and December to take the LSAT and then apply. It doesn't sound like he's applied yet or he wouldn't be inquiring about getting in there.
And for what it's worth no first…
Yes absolutely, order it today, have it by Friday and hit the ground running. I was wary of using it for LG because I thought it would be confusing but it's actually a great complement to 7Sage and I've gotten a lot out of it. I stopped PTing until …
If you want NYU, don't leave it to chance by wasting your GPA with a non comparable LSAT and don't leave money on the table. You're pretty much not going to be able to work during law school so scholarship money is very important. I am sure you do n…
Although you won't be taking the LSAT standing up on test day, I would actually recommend taking one standing up since sitting is generally terrible for you. If it goes away, then it's likely a posture/back/neck issue.
If it's still there then I wo…
I used JY's since 7Sage was the first resource I used and I found his to be very intuitive and easy to use. Later on I incorporated some techniques from the Trainer, but only a few things that are easier to pick up if you have a solid fundamental te…
Usually I'd struggle on the first game in each lesson and then watching JY's explanation would kind of unlock it a bit for me. Of course they usually throw you a curve ball in the remainder of the games in each lesson, but by the time I finished the…
Without any real data in front of me, I would guess that would be true because you lose out on so many networking opportunities as well as internships. I also can't help but think there would be a stigma in a lot of big law offices against part time…
If you have a uGPA that high and you have only taken the LSAT once or twice, you really should retake because even if you can get in to some top 10s, you are leaving a lot of scholarship money on the table. If I had a 4.0 uGPA and had only taken the…
I definitely attempted to do all the games in the lessons on my own and timed myself with a stopwatch to give myself unlimited time but also see my progress timewise. Your best bet is to work your way through the curriculum as they lay it out, do th…
@kicurtis here's my approach to LGs if you haven't seen it before: http://classic.7sage.com/discussion/#/discussion/2737/logic-games-attack-strategy
Feel free to hit me up with any questions you have about the write up.
I accidentally switched voices once during the 15 minute break to check out all the different ones to kill some time and it started new timers multiple times while the first one kept going, it was a disaster. hahah
