Sounds like you talked to someone who didn't know what they were talking about. I would call them again tomorrow to clarify what the deal is and make sure you have accommodations. Extra time test takers give useless data for experimental sections, w…
I would say you're putting the cart before the horse here since you haven't even started studying. Go through the curriculum at whatever pace you need to and then give yourself a few months to PT at a minimum. If you have a sub 160 diagnostic and ne…
Hmmm... I wonder what advice you will get on here. Since you're posting this on 7Sage you already know what you should do. Just go ahead and get it over with and get started. Welcome to the club!
Terrible proctors, 100+ students, just handing the test out took forever, not to mention checking IDs, collecting the test, handing it back out... Total disaster from beginning to end... Sounded worse than an MCAT...
My wife took it at Northwestern several years ago and it was about an 8 or 9 hour affair due to the number of students... I was in small rooms for both of my takes and was in and out in just under 5 hours.
Test-like conditions are just that... They are like the conditions but it is impossible to simulate the stress/anxiety/adrenaline you will feel on test day. Furthermore, simply taking it once and thinking all that will go away the second time around…
Postpone unless you need a 150... Ditch TM and PS as noted above... Get at least the Starter pack and take the summer to go through the curriculum before you start to PT in the fall... Shoot for December with February as a fall back, or more likely …
Shoot for 25 in 25 during LR. That extra 10 minutes to review the curvebreakers is the best shot you'll get to correct any mistakes or misconceptions.
LG and RC you should be finishing 3-5 minutes early and using that extra time to shore up any we…
Your argument is flawed in that you are taking for granted that people with correlated scores are likely to have similar issues, be comfortable raising them, and have adequate solutions for them that will work for everyone else simply because they a…
Don't place artificial time constraints on yourself. If you have only an hour a day to study before September, then don't take it in September. If you have to take a year or two to study for this before your first take them so be it. Trying to take …

it is imperative to mention in your PS why you want to go to law school
Not true at all and you shouldn't strain for this. If it happens organically and ties it up nicely so be it. But far too many essays out there are just "Why Law/L…
It's virtually impossible for you to end up as a splitter with that high of a GPA. You might end up as a reverse splitter, but consultants are equally helpful there I would say. I think there just happen to be a lot more splitters than reverse split…
Grades already being locked in the only really major opportunity to level the playing field is a high LSAT score. Take it when you're actually ready, not just when you force yourself to.
As a military spouse I can tell you that that is not a soft.
Take a look at threads like this on TLS: http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/viewtopic.php?t=108015
Google "TLS ranking of softs" or something similar and you'll find a good amount of…
David is amazing at what he does, and Mike is amazing at what he does. I was fortunate to win David's help in a contest and have Spivey on retainer so I got the best of both worlds. If you suck at writing then David might be the way to go. If you wa…
The best course of action is to fill out the employment history in the app as completely as possible for whatever period is requested. Then make sure you have all your best stuff on your resume, but of course that will be edited down for length depe…
No real formula for the scenario you're talking about, so just take it with a grain of salt and don't take it as truly predictive. When it comes to retakes of full PTs, people usually say anywhere from 5-10 points but that will diminish once you get…
You need to be taking more lessons with you after you finish a section and review it. Games do not exist in a vacuum. 90+% of games are just a variation of sequencing or grouping so when you screw up something in a game you need to be able to recogn…
What schools say they do or care about is not the same as what they actually do or care about. Hell look at Law School Transparency to see how different the reality of employment prospects is from what schools say it is.
Once you have a feel for the question type just move on. Using up 20 problem sets while doing the curriculum is only going to hurt you later when you need drilling material during your PT phase.
Check out each school on Law School Transparency to get an idea of what the real outcomes are, not what the school wants to pretend they are. Even schools in the lower half of the top 50 don't look all that great upon closer examination. Of course, …
In all likelihood you're not going to be able to save that much money in a year to make a significant difference. The Fulbright will pay far more dividends in the long run than saving up $20k or something like that. I'm very debt averse having gradu…
You're at or above every LSAT median and at or above almost every LSAT 75th. CCN and below should all take you with a great app. I would guess you would catch one of HYS, probably H. A higher score might help catch H and S, but Y is likely out. Plus…
