Sounds like a page should be fine. Just describe the ways you have overcome being poor (growing up poor, going to a poorly funded school, being on welfare, etc) If you haven't overcome socio-economical disadvantages, probably …
Bottom line everyone: If you're thinking about taking the LSAT in February, you should still submit your application beforehand and notify the schools to put it on hold. (If you don't notify them via phone call or email, they will have no knowledge …

Yeah I'm wondering about this too. I did register for February already, but I felt like my Dec. 3 take went really well. I feel like I'm unlikely to do much better in February, and haven't been studying over the past couple o…
@tlu said:
Should you indicate on your apps that you are registered for the Feb test? Even if there's a chance you won't end up taking it?
if you're 100% set on taking in Feb then yes you have to notify all the schools you're applying to so they c…
@jknauf you ended up getting momentum?? Yaaaay! I should get paid for this lol
btw you gentlemen gave some pretty thought provoking advice. I have nothing to add haha.

Is it still possible to go to Law school?
Most definitely. There's two sided scale for law school admissions. On one side you have your UGPA, Personal Statement, letters of rec, maybe a few other essays...on the other sid…

if you upgrade you don't get all the extension of the time that the ultimate+ package would offer you had you in the beginning signed up for it.
Yeah this is usually the case, but if you email Dillon he'll extend it for you if I'm not…

Thank you all so much for the feedback! I think what I am going to do is get the Premium and sit for June. I believe I can manage that with work and school and also keep my GPA pristine. In the event that I am not pleased with my sc…
@jknauf said:
Hahah I'll never forget looking at my first LSAT book, getting to the first practice problem and being like "Holy s****, maybe I'm not meant for law school"
Awww, I can 100% relate to this. Diagnostics aren't anything, man. I think t…

(1) I'm taking crazy copious notes. I'll watch every substantive video at least twice, pausing frequently, to transcribe the content on paper in my own words. I'll print out any written material and read through with a pen and highlight…
On the contrary, this is the best approach to achieve mastery! Often times, people are either flying through the material not gaining an ounce of knowledge or jumping around the lessons trying to find silver bullets to achieve their target score fas…

If you're just starting out, I'd recommend going in order the first time through. The curriculum is structured and ordered deliberately and each lesson builds on previous lessons. After working through it, you can focus you…

Interesting, I was assuming the part which said 'otherwise not reported' would encompass an absence. Do you have the link to where you are reading this?
Yeah, I could see the confusion. I don't have a link but I've discussed this wit…
@jknauf said:
I'm not sure it's 'necessary' but rather recommended, you know? Any discrepancy which could be viewed unfavorably is probably worthy of an explanation.
Agreed.

I actually found that returning from a break was always when I performed my best.

"Normally, you may not take the LSAT more than three times in any two-year period. This policy applies even if you cancel your score or it is not otherwise reported. LSAC reserves the right to withdraw your registration, rescind your …

Do any of you guys have any that are not in places where they are perfectly hidden?
Lol, I have the occasional henna tattoo on my hands/arms but they aren't permanent so its gucci.
I'm pretty sure an absence doesn't count towards your three takes. A cancellation counts however.
Anyway, an absence can be easily explained in a quick addendum and you're definitely in the clear to take the LSAT three more times given you've surpa…
