Prep for September. Then take them both if need be.
-
I think some of the ties in the T25 (2, 4, and 8, 20, 22) will disappear due to the hits that different schools had to take to their LSAT medians. I think Stanford and Berkeley both drop since they took hits across the board.
-
Go for September... I wouldn't worry about BRing old PTs... Just use what you've got and mix in some retakes. So maybe finish the curriculum and the LG bundle by the end of April and then take 2 PTs per week (1 new and 1 retake). There is much to be…

That is because yesterday was gray day for regular test takers. It might be a glitch or a feature but I'm sure you'll have your scores in a few weeks time.
-
They automatically get the score but it won't matter because almost every school only cares about your top score. If you had increased they would've taken it because when schools say they don't take Feb LSAT scores they mean as a first test. Plenty …

@Sheri123 the one thing that worries me about the employment and bar passage rates in the sub 100 to unranked schools is there is a lot of shadiness going on. Of course it is not happening at every school but it can be difficult to ascertain what is…

For LR you should really be done your first round in 30 minutes or less to give you time to go back to the harder questions. You're likely spending too much time on easy questions as well as hard ones. The former you solve by developing more confide…

Yeah in the future if you just want to visit without meeting them you can just go anonymously and it won't "count" as a visit or anything like that (i.e.- no engagement during and no follow up required). But now that you have been invited I would ta…

Yeah I saw a guy the other day get accepted to Stanford and rejected at UT Austin. That was the most egregious example I saw this cycle.
-
@Sheri123 I wouldn't go to any unranked law school even if it was free and they paid me on top of that. I wouldn't go anywhere outside the T14 at sticker unless their tuition was really low (e.g.- in state tuition), and if you aren't looking for bi…

@amurphy said: a retake would not help for admission there this year, no matter how well I did. If you get yourself on a WL with your current score, then a higher June LSAT can absolutely get you into a school for this fall. Schools don't take Ju…
-
I would retake in June or September. Even if you could sneak into Fordham you would be paying sticker. And I wouldn't advise taking on much debt to attend the others. Retaking represents only opportunity.
-
No not a typo. Depending on the calendar each year it can be either late September or early October. That's why you'll often see people talk about the fall LSAT if they aren't referring to a specific year (though technically the Dec. LSAT is also al…
-
Yeah the email has your score and coincides pretty closely with posting on LSAC so there is little reason to do the latter. Just set your email to fetch and push and then go about your daily life knowing you'll be alerted the minute it comes in.
-
Most people I know use their iPhones. Ask @"Nicole Hopkins" or @allison.gill.sanford for a good mount recommendation.
-
You can freely discuss topics to indicate what was the experimental. So for example you could say I had a sequencing game about cars and a grouping game about artists. That's really all you need to be able to figure it out. What you can't discuss is…

What's good old people?

This is probably a bit late for today but just wanted to add in my general philosophy on what you're talking about here. I always think it is best to take the time to BR and push the next PT to the right. Since there is potential for so much learnin…
-
You're on the right track and I second all the advice given above. Ideally you want to finish your first go round in the 25-30 minute range having given an average of a minute to each question. Then with the remaining 5-10 minutes you give that seco…

I would also recommend a lot of audiobooks and/or podcasts to passively help with your reading and English abilities. And Allison is on point with her Economist recommendation, which I think is generally useless for native speakers, but I always rec…

Business casual is always the safest bet. Troll Spivey's TLS thread for some great questions to ask adcoms (there is a lot to sift through but it is a veritable treasure trove of information): http://www.top-law-schools.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=43…
-
I favor skipping around. Though it would probably be best to knock out 36-45 or so in a row just to get a good baseline. No point in jumping ahead before you have some idea of where you are at. Once you've got some PT practice in then I'd say start …

Take a week off. No LSAT prep, nothing law school related. Just go out and do whatever else it is you do and have some fun. Next weekend take some time to take a more dispassionate and disinterested look at why you want to go to law school and more …

Congrats! As Trump would say, "that's bigly!"

I don't think there's a better law blog out there than Bob Loblaw's Law Blog.

@nibs7985 said: I usually spend 8+ hours a day, everyday studying Way too much. This is how you burn out. @nibs7985 said: -8 on LG IMO you should not be PT'ing if this is your average. You're just wasting PTs if you're doing that. Start with…

No problem, I've talked to consultants about this issue before and you have nothing to worry about.
-
It's not business school.. There is relatively little to no age discrimination. If you've got the numbers and other qualifications then you're good to go. There are people in their 60s and 70s that get into the T14.

If there are more people than just Tom on the editorial board then he doesn't have to write anything for the board itself to write on many legal issues. Picture an actual law journal at a school that has 10 students on the editorial board. One or tw…
