Only one person above mentioned this, but I honestly think that with your softs and LSAT score, you may want to consider revising some of your letters of recommendations! I read on the Yale admission blog about the weight that LORs can have, and the…

Question for you, do you know of any Canadians who studied in The US and then came back to Canada and are practicing?

YESSS I'm hoping for JD/ MA in security studies for Georgetown! Will be applying in October

If you're worried, I think the advice given above is spot-on. Apply as early as you can, and do not take things like additional statements for granted !!! Make sure your personal statement is really well written, and highlights something relatively …

Also, I don't think you have to apply for jobs at a law firm, which may ease your frustration. Like mentioned above, almost anything will be okay. Considering the fact that you studied engineering, if you get a job that has some relation to that, yo…

Anyone wanna link to their rankings? I can only find ATL's articles about USNR and law firm rankings

Applying next year So, BUMP !!!

Question: Since the December LSAT has now moved to November, when would still be considered "early" to apply?? I plan on taking the September LSAT and assuming I'll be satisfied with it, click submit to my apps the day results are released!
-
Question though: If ABA decides that a test is no longer needed beginning cycle of 2019-2020, don't you think that many people who would have applied next cycle would wait a year instead of having to take the LSAT?? (People who have not studied for …

I studied using only the PS Bibles, which got me a 166. So I just recently started 7sage!! For me, the LG Bible got me to -0 on Games, so I found it helpful, BUT I HAVE NOT DONE ANY GAMES YET WITH 7SAGE, (just started the CC) so cannot compare the…

Not trying to be a downer, but this late in the cycle after being "in review" since late December, is it even realistic to expect/hope for a sheer acceptance? Or is it almost 100% WL/ rejection at this point?
-
I HIGHLY ADVISE AGAINST* AN IN PERSON COURSE!!! 7sage is awesome, and if you want more material then you can try the PowerScore LG bible and the LR Bible! The reason I advise against an in-person course, is it is VERY EXPENSIVE and not as helpful …

Absolutely!
-
Keep in mind though that Spivey still expects next year's cycle to be less competitive!!! So this may not be the case for next year since #of applicants is expected to drop
-
Any more splitter successes this cycle??

I am currently reading Samantha Power's book "A problem from Hell" about America's response to genocide, it is really fascinating (though to be honest I am still in the early chapters thus far). Another book I really like is by Yale professor Amy C…

LOVING seeing all your progress reports, keep it up and keeping my fingers crossed for y'all

When are the deadlines for them? Can you visit before the deadline? Because if so then I wouldn't put a deposit before visiting if time permits

Here is the link for methodology for the rankings: https://www.usnews.com/education/best-graduate-schools/articles/law-schools-methodology One of the factors taken account is peer assessment score and assessment score by lawyers and judges, where …

I too decided to reapply next cycle with an improved LSAT and GPA (in final year of undergrad right now). Lonely Planet has buy one get one free all their travel guidebooks right now.....So using next year to backpack after applications are in

Just wondering, how come not Georgetown or even GW? Because if for example you got a partial scholarship at Georgetown, you MIGHT be able to leverage UVA for a bit of money, and even if not, I would probably take some money at Georgetown over full …

I have a close friend who purchased the LSAT trainer after completing the CC and used it primarily for RC. She ended up doing -1 on test day on RC! Have you thought about trying out the book? Hope this helps!
-
BUMP because I'm interested in this too! I have yet to purchase the LSAT trainer
-
For Emory I think you'll have a decent chance with 165+, especially with a good GPA addendum. (I'm a *bit of a splitter and got a very generous scholarship from them with a 166)).
